About Author: Eoin Brodie, PhD

Description
Dr. Eoin Brodie is a microbial ecologist at the Lawrence Berkeley National Lab in Berkeley, California. His research interests lie in understanding the factors that control microbial communities and the functional implications of alterations in community composition. His research involves a wide range of microbial systems including surface and subsurface soils, deep subsurface environments, invertebrate guts, watersheds and contaminated aquifers, urban aerosols, and various mammalian microbiomes. To assess microbial community composition in a high-throughput and high-resolution manner he employs state-of-the-science microarray and DNA sequencing technologies and relates microbiological parameters to functional and physical properties of ecosystems using stable-isotopes, biochemical assays, geochemical/geophysical measurements and statistical modeling.
