My research interests lie in the diversity of viruses infecting microbial eukaryotes (protists) in marine environments. By isolating novel viruses and carrying out bioinformatic analyses of viral genomes and metagenomes, I hope to learn more about marine viruses in terms of their ecological functions, interactions with hosts, and evolutionary implications.
