Day 7 : drawing cession

Back to Ithaca to put order in my mind, to watch the datas and collections I already get from this dense week.

I’m working at the lab 715, Where Laurel Lynch is currently working on the soil datas :

I am a postdoctoral research fellow at Cornell University. I study how microbial and environmental drivers influence the molecular composition of dissolved organic matter. I employ a series of analytical techniques (including stable isotope tracing, mass spectrometry, nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy, and microscopy) to resolve complex interactions along the plant-soil-microbe continuum, and their combined regulation of energy flows at the watershed scale. Currently, I am studying how microbial metabolism influences the formation and turnover of soil organic matter; resolving these mechanisms is essential for understanding soil health and agricultural sustainability. For my doctorate work, I assessed the vulnerability of Arctic soils to climate warming. website
