About me

I am a postdoctoral researcher in Monika Winder's lab group. I am researching the dietary components of herring larvae - the most vulnerable life stage to changes in system phenology and environmental disruptions - between different spawning populations/ecotypes around the Stockholm Archipelago. I aim to contribute to larger projects across the lab group: broadening our understanding of planktonic food web dynamics, and furthering our understanding of subpopulation-level diversity, and potential diversity in response to climate change, of herring populations across the Baltic.
