Marine Microbial Macroecology Lab

Dr Ruby Hu

As a chemist, my expertise covers a broad spectrum of capabilities including (1) chemistry, such as inorganic nanoparticles, organic synthesis, analytical chemistry especially the nitrate optode in microplate and analysis of biogenic silica; (2) biology, such as purification and taxonomy of fossilized diatom in sediment, culturing, automate fossilized diatom sample analysis with FlowCam.

My new goal is to learn more about assay analysis of microalgal cells. In addition, I will maintain cultures, equipment and the laboratory in good condition.
