University of Florida
The Durham Lab is recruiting a lab technician for Spring 2021!
​Details about the position can be found here.
marine microbes & ocean ecosystems
ABOUT
Our research focuses on how marine microbes, specifically phytoplankton and bacteria, interact with each other and their environment to influence carbon, sulfur, and energy cycles in the ocean.
​To understand microbial activity and function in the sea, we use a combination of molecular and chemical approaches, both in laboratory studies using model phytoplankton and bacterial species and field-based observations of natural populations.

PROJECTS
​Current projects include:
  • characterization of organic sulfur metabolism in phytoplankton and bacteria
  • mass spectrometry-based metabolomics profiling and next generation sequencing analysis of phytoplankton, including harmful algal bloom (HAB) species
  • application of 'omics-based field techniques to track microbial interactions and carbon flow in marine ecosystems
