Sara Hallin

I am a microbial ecologist interested in the ecology of N-cycling microbes. I do experimental work in the field and the lab, and in silico studies using large-scale genomic and metagenomic data. I address fundamental questions regarding their ecology and to some extent also evolution of their key catalytic enzymes. The fundamental research links to my applied research on nutrient cycling, climate change, and water treatment, with relevance for agricultural and environmental engineering.
