Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolMartin Ostrowski is a senior research fellow and molecular oceanographer with a PhD in Microbiology and a first-class Honors in Biochemistry from UNSW, whose work has helped establish marine genomics by culturing, sequencing and analysing key picophytoplankton that underpin global ocean productivity. He has built national-scale research infrastructure—founding culture and flow-sorting facilities, the Macquarie Marine Research Centre and the Marine Microbes project—and led continental microbial observatory analytics at UTS, co-founding the ARDC Microbial Ocean Atlas. With over 300 days at sea and a track record of translating fundamental science into community-facing initiatives (including citizen-sailor expeditions and automated microbial observatories with Marine Rescue), he blends hands-on fieldwork with informatics and novel analytical method development. Now based in Sydney and holding active honorary and CI roles, he continues to supervise students and contribute to international NHMRC-sponsored research. An uncommon strength is his ability to span wet-lab cultivation and sequencing through to large-scale computational analytics and governance of national science infrastructure.
