We are a passionate team of interdisciplinary scientists using cutting-edge tools from engineering and biology to advance knowledge and solutions to environmental challenges
In the Stocker lab, we spy on the lives of aquatic organisms. We specialise in the use of imaging to capture and quantify organismal behaviour, from microorganisms to fish, which we study by developing dedicated technology, including microfluidics.

How do microbial behaviour and interactions influence carbon storage in the deep sea? An international team of researchers, co-led by Professor Roman Stocker,…
Rapid changes in water discharge, a phenomenon known as hydropeaking, can disturb aquatic ecosystems, and researchers have sought to understand how fish species cope…
Led by Joaquin Jimenez-Martinez Soils represent the interface between surface and subsurface water resources, hosting processes critical to the hydrological cycle, to the climate…
Led by Jonasz Słomka Microbial communities impact human health, global biogeochemical cycles, and plant growth. Properties of microbial communities emerge from the interactions…
Marine unicellular algae, also called phytoplankton, are key to the world’s oxygen production and form the foundation of oceanic ecosystems. These tiny creatures,…
