Cecilia MLEWSKI

She is a biology researcher from the Universidad Nacional de Córdoba, Argentina, and CONICET. Her research is focused on the study of the microbial communities from microbial mats in extreme environments such as the Argentinean Puna and Antarctica. Using different high-throughput sequencing and microscopy techniques she analyze the microbe-mineral interactions in the microbial mats and associated microbialites with the potential to find proxies of the microbial influence in mineral precipitation.
