David Richardson

David Richardson, a Professor at the University of East Anglia, focuses on understanding electron transfer mechanisms between microbes and extracellular transition metal minerals. His research explores how insulated nanowires conduct electrons from within cells to mineralized metals, impacting carbon cycles and other critical biogeochemical processes in terrestrial and aquatic environments.

His work includes investigating the structure and functionality of proteoliposomes for rapid electron transfer to ferric minerals and insights into the assembly of microbial nanowires.
