Biography

Academy Research Fellow

Research interests

My work mostly involves the identification of various groups of organisms from the environmental samples by applying the metabarcoding approach. Special interest in soil faunal and micro-mycobiome networks. Alongside, my interest is testing various bioinformatics tools for sequence data analyzes to identify the strategies most suitable for a given data set.
