Our new group member Sebastian Krause has finished his first quarter at UCLA with getting involved in processing deep biosphere samples in the glove box (see photo).

Sebastian is a new EPSS PhD student who started in the Fall of 2016. He is interested in microbial activity in deep-sea sediments. Particularly in microbes that involved in the anaerobic oxidation of methane around methane seeps and tectonic boundaries.

Sebastian received his Bachelor’s of Science at the University of California, Santa Cruz (UCSC) in Marine Biology.  On his free time, he likes swimming, camping, hiking, and scuba diving.

Welcome to UCLA, Sebastian!
