Across the globe, agriculture is facing increasingly extreme environmental challenges, driven by the growing impacts of climate change.
My motivation is to understand how key crops can adapt to these changes in order to maintain - or even restore - food security. I also focus on larger-scale agricultural processes with regards to carbon cycling in order to improve carbon sequestration and soil health.
Currently I'm working as a post-doc at the Institute of Bio- and Geosciences: Agrosphere (IBG-3), Forschungszentrum Jülich, Germany.
