First paper from Nea’s PhD is out! DOC and ultra-small bacteria in thawing palsa and palsa ponds.

In 2026 the focus will be on those ultra-small microbes 🦠

Thrilled to present a poster in #FEMS2025 Milan!
Find me today at Poster Area A21 to learn about microbes and carbon in a river system affected by permafrost and peatland 🦠

Super happy to see this is now available.....I am hugely biased of course, but ⬇️ is highly pertinent for the discussions about rapidly thawing #Arctic inland permafrost systems

Excited to start Bluesky posting by sharing the first manuscript of my PhD! We investigated microbial community assembly and biogeochemistry of an Arctic River catchment.
