Research

I work within the ERC Diol project and am studying the impact of diagenesis on long chain alkyl diols and related proxies. Currently, I am working on the following projects:

  • Impact of oxic degradation on long chain alkyl diols in Nannochloropsis oculata
  • Macromolecular sources and extractability of long chain alkyl diols in Nannochloropsis species
  • Impact of post-depositional oxidation on long chain alkyl diols and keto-ols in Mediterranean sapropels
  • Impact of lateral transport on long chain alkyl diols

Education

2009-2012 Bachelor of Science in Geology, University of Greifswald, Germany

2012-2014 Master of Science in Geology, University of Lund, Sweden
