Biography

I am a Senior Lecturer of Evolutionary Genetics in JYU's Department of Biological and Environmental Science. I am active in research, teaching and teaching development. I serve as a study advisor to students in JYU's multi-lingual Masters Programme in Aquatic Science.

Research interests

My research uses genetic tools to describe biodiversity and explore species interactions. I am particularly interested in symbioses between microbial eukaryotes and aquatic invertebrates. I collaborate within my field as well as in interdisciplinary research.
