I am an experimental field ecologist. I seek to understand ecological and societal consequences of global declines in terrestrial biodiversity and large-scale destruction of habitats. To do this, me and my research team use a combination of molecular sequencing, laboratory and in-situ field manipulations describe how soil microbial and invertebrate communities influence ecosystem processes and shape their environment in forests. Our aim is to gain a mechanistic understanding of diversity-functioning relationships and the impact of changes in the abundance of keystone species on ecosystem processes.
