About Me
I studied microbiology in South Africa and Belgium, did a post-doc in Switzerland and now lead the Drinking Water Microbiology group at Eawag. My main interest is in understanding drinking water as a complex ecological environment inhabited by diverse microbial communities. We focus on measuring and understanding the dynamics of bacteria in drinking water treatment and distribution systems. To do that we have established flow cytometry and a main method and developed fully automated online and realtime flow cytometric systems for high frequency monitoring. In addition, my research focus on the nutrients - particularly organic carbon - which these microbes use for their proliferation.
