Summary
Carlos Trigueros is an Academy Research Fellow at the University of Jyväskylä who leads a multidisciplinary group studying how microbes shape ecosystems, from carbon cycling to plant nutrition and disease. With a PhD from Freie Universität Berlin and nine years of experience, he blends microbial ecology, applied microbiology, and advanced data science to analyze large-scale environmental and microbiome datasets using R and MATLAB. His work spans natural, agricultural, and urban systems and emphasizes robust statistical approaches—from multivariate analyses to mixed-effects models—paired with hands-on fungal identification and culture collections. A visiting fellow at Technische Universität Dresden and former researcher in Australia and Germany, he connects field ecology with reproducible computational workflows and database management. Colleagues value his ability to translate complex microbial patterns into actionable ecological insights and maintain well-curated microbial resources that support long-term comparative studies.
