Putting science back into microbial ecology: a question of approach
Philosophical Transactions of the Royal Society of London. Biological Sciences, 2020 Microbial ecology, the scientific study of interactions between natural microbial communities and their environments, has been facilitated by the application of molecular and ‘omics’-based techniques that overcome some of the limitations of cultivation ...

Marine crude-oil biodegradation: a central role for interspecies interactions [PDF]
, 2012 The marine environment is highly susceptible to pollution by petroleum, and so it is important to understand how microorganisms degrade hydrocarbons, and thereby mitigate ecosystem damage. Our understanding about the ecology, physiology, biochemistry and

Antibiotic Pollution in the Environment: From Microbial Ecology to Public Policy
Microorganisms, 2019 The ability to fight bacterial infections with antibiotics has been a longstanding cornerstone of modern medicine. However, wide-spread overuse and misuse of antibiotics has led to unintended consequences, which in turn require large-scale changes of ...

Microbial and metabolic succession on common building materials under high humidity conditions. [PDF]
, 2019 Despite considerable efforts to characterize the microbial ecology of the built environment, the metabolic mechanisms underpinning microbial colonization and successional dynamics remain unclear, particularly at high moisture conditions. Here, we applied
