​Hatzenpichler ​Environmental Microbiology Lab​​​

​

99% of microbes cannot be grown in the lab. We seek to understand what this "uncultured majority" is doing and how its activity shapes Earth's biogeochemical cycles ​and life on our planet.​

​If you are a highly motivated prospective grad student or postdoc candidate, please contact Roland by email. Prospective graduate students interested in microbiology, astrobiology, ecology, molecular biology, and biochemistry are encouraged to apply to both the Chem-Biochem and Molecular Biosciences Program.​​

Sep 20 6, New paper in ISME Comm: Culexarchaeia, a novel archaeal class of anaerobic generalists inhabiting geothermal environments. ​Anthony discovered a new class of thermophilic archaea that, besides being generalists, have the potential for anaerobic methylotrophy.   PDF   SOI



Aug 10, Anthony wins poster award at the Gordon Research Conference on the Molecular Basis of Microbial One-Carbon Metabolism!

​Congratulations Anthony on this very well deserved recognition!

Aug 8, New $1.7M award funds extension of our single cell physiology work into the human gut microbiome. MSU News article

We will soon hire a new postdoc or staff scientist and graduate students to start work on this exciting new project.
