Research Interests

My re­search in mi­cro­bial eco­logy ap­plies bioin­form­at­ics and data sci­ence to in­vest­ig­ate the dy­nam­ics of the liv­ing ocean. I am lead­ing a col­lab­or­at­ive ef­fort between ocean ob­ser­vat­or­ies to pro­to­type a net­work of in­ter­op­er­able omic biod­iversity data ex­change and ana­lysis. I am us­ing on­to­lo­gies and di­gital ex­change stand­ards to build a sus­tain­able, solid, and ex­tend­able found­a­tion for this work. My aim is to bridge stake­hold­ers within and bey­ond aca­demia, ad­van­cing the read­i­ness of global omic and mi­cro­bial ob­ser­va­tion net­works, and ad­dress­ing the over­arch­ing sci­entific mis­sion to in­vest­ig­ate the state of the plan­et­ary-scale mar­ine mi­cro­bi­ome.
