Summary
Nuttapon (Nat) Pombubpa is an Assistant Professor in Microbiology at Chulalongkorn University with a decade of research and teaching experience focused on dryland and agricultural microbiomes. He earned his PhD from the University of California, Riverside, where he developed expertise in fungal and biological soil crust diversity using high-throughput amplicon sequencing and metagenomics. His work integrates metabolomics, proteomics, and culturing to link community composition with function in desert and soil ecosystems. Based in Bangkok, he bridges field ecology and molecular methods to address environmental and agricultural microbiome questions relevant to arid landscapes. Notably, he combines classical cultivation approaches with multi-omics to recover overlooked desert taxa and their metabolic signatures.
