VICTORIA'S MULTIDISCIPLINARY RESEARCH PROGRAM SPANS THE INTERFACE BETWEEN
ENVIRONMENTAL MICROBIOLOGY, GEOCHEMISTRY, AND GEOLOGY. THROUGH THE INTEGRATED
APPLICATION OF ENVIRONMENTAL 'OMICS APPROACHES, STABLE ISOTOPE ANALYSIS, AND
IMAGING, HER GROUP IS CHARACTERIZING THE INTERSPECIES INTERACTIONS AND
ECOLOGICAL PHYSIOLOGY OF ARCHAEA, BACTERIA, AND VIRUSES LINKED TO THE CYCLING OF
METHANE, SULFUR, NITROGEN, AND METALS IN OCEAN SEDIMENTS AND EXTREME
ENVIRONMENTS.
