We are excited to introduce Dr Milko Jorquera as one of our national speakers at the “Microbial Frontiers: Ecology in Extreme Environments” Symposium!
Professor Milko Jorquera holds a degree in Aquaculture Engineering from the University of Antofagasta and obtained his PhD from Osaka University, Japan, with a focus on microbial ecology and environmental microbiology. He currently co-directs the Applied Microbial Ecology Laboratory (EMALAB) at the University of La Frontera in Temuco, Chile.
His research centers on studying the abundance, composition, and function of bacterial communities in various ecosystems in Chile, including both agricultural environments (grasslands, crops, gardens) and extreme habitats, such as the Atacama Desert, Patagonia, and Antarctica.
