Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolMartha Kandziora is a botanist and researcher with a decade of experience using sequence data and climate information to investigate plant evolution, applying Python, R and Bash to build reproducible analyses. Currently based in Prague, she joined Senckenberg Biodiversity and Climate Research Centre after MSCA and postdoctoral roles at Charles University and UC Merced, combining field-driven questions with computational workflows. Her background includes a Dr. rer. nat. in Botany from Johannes Gutenberg‑Universität Mainz and a strong track record of interdisciplinary collaborations across Europe and the US. Known for translating complex ecological and genomic datasets into clear evolutionary insights, she often integrates climatic context into phylogenomic studies—a perspective that reveals how past and present environments shape plant diversity.
