Biography
Dr. Shailendra Mishra uses genomics-derived framework to explain the complexity of microbial ecosystems by combining meta-omics (metagenomics and metabolomics) with associated metadata (geochemical and physiological data) using multivariate statistical methods. His research interest in the peatland ecosystem is aimed at developing an in-depth understanding of peat–oxidation processes due to microbiome functioning, which leads to high greenhouse gas emissions from tropical peatlands. In urban ecosystems, his research is focused on understanding the microbial assemblages and their associated functions in sediment and water phase of urban waterways in Singapore.
