Mayukhmita Ghose

About

I am a microbial ecologist specializing in bacterial diversity and environmental metagenomics, integrating molecular biology and bioinformatics to study carbon cycling in marine and coastal ecosystems. My research focuses on microbial community dynamics and functional pathways driving carbon processing and long-term storage, particularly in mangrove blue carbon ecosystems of India, with implications for climate regulation and coastal ecosystem conservation
