I am interested in the network of biotic interactions occurring across the soil-root continuum. Currently, I am exploring the viral diversity inhabiting California grassland soils to understand the role of viral replication strategies on microbiome structure. Previously, I studied the compositional dynamics and functional implications of the bacterial and archaeal communities associated to rice plants.

I’m interested in the involvement of microbes and viruses in biogeochemical cycles. Lately I’ve been working on the dynamics of viruses in a variety of soils and under different conditions. I also love cats and dogs. If you see me at a conference and want to chat – show me some pet photos.

I am investigating many aspects related to the chemistry of viruses: soil virus chemical composition, chemical drivers that influence the fate/transport of viruses, and virus-host metabolomics.
