A warm welcome to Melanie!

We’re happy to welcome Melanie Stäubli to PriME as a Postdoctoral researcher in the Levine group. Melanie is a microbial ecologist with a strong background in quantitative modeling, passionate about deciphering the eco‑evolutionary forces that shape microbial community dynamics. Her current research focuses on understanding how phycosphere interactions affect the dynamics of phytoplankton communities and their broader implications for marine carbon cycling.

We’re excited for the insights she’ll bring to our network and look forward to new discoveries. Welcome aboard, Melanie!
