About
I am currently engaged in innovative research at the University of Eastern Finland within the Department of Environmental and Biological Sciences. My work focuses on assessing the impacts of micro- and nanoplastics on bacterial communities in various natural environments. Additionally, I explore the effects of mining activities on lake microbial communities and their influence on climate change and Biochemical cycles (Nitrogen and Sulfur cycle). By employing Shotgun and Next-Generation Sequencing, along with proteomics and bioinformatic tools.
