As an ecologist, I am interested in the impact of plant-soil microbe interactions on plant community assembly, especially in a changing environment. Using field and greenhouse experiments, I aim to find how changed precipitation or elevated temperature disturbs the existing plant-soil interactions and if these disturbed interactions drive shifts in plant community composition.
