Biography
Jayne is a member of the Geomicrobiology Group and is working on different ways to develop, validate and deploy biomarker tools for tracking bacterial endospores in the marine environment. Jayne's research passions are using chromatography and mass spectrometry to analyse microbial lipid biomarkers and use them as tracers for microorganisms. Jayne has a PhD from the University of Utrecht in the Netherlands, an MSc/Ir. from Wageningen University in the Netherlands and a BSc Environmental Chemistry from the University of Plymouth in the UK. She worked in the department of Geological Sciences at Stockholm University prior to joining the Geomicrobiology Group in June 2017.
