I am a microbial biogeochemist; I aim to understand how microorganisms shape global biogeochemical cycles to elucidate “who do what”. I did a PhD at Geomar (Kiel, Germany) where I studied how cyclonic eddies from North-West Africa affect organic matter turnover in the ocean. After that, I did a postdoc at the Leibniz Institute for Baltic Sea Research Warnemünde where I studied the difference in carbon and nitrogen assimilation by different genera of diatoms (topic of the present talk). At JYU I am involved in the DarkLady project, investigating how lakes brownification changes the ionome and the transfer of essential fatty acid within the foodweb.
Biological and Environmental Science Seminar 12.11.2026
Biological and Environmental Seminar by Postdoctoral Researcher Quentin Devresse from University of Jyväskylä on the topic "Carbon fixation and nitrogen assimilation at the single-cell level in diatoms".
Open to everyone interested. The event offers a great opportunity to learn, share ideas, and connect with colleagues across disciplines. Welcome!
Coffee will be served at 1:45 PM before the seminar - come early to grab a cup and mingle!
