Rooted in plant-microorganism interactions, my research focuses on understanding the mechanisms that regulate the establishment of microbial communities associated with their plant host. From the plant to the microbiota, I use “omics” approaches (e.g. metagenomics, metabolomics) to characterise the biotic (e.g. vegetation, metabolome) and abiotic (e.g. drought, pollutants) factors that govern the assembly of microbial communities.
