Angus Bucknell

Angus Bucknell is a Researcher in the School of Biological Sciences at the University of East Anglia, holding a Doctor of Philosophy degree. His work focuses on unraveling complex symbiotic relationships in lichen systems through advanced genomic methodologies.

Research interests include:

• Lichen Symbiosis
• Metagenomics
• Transcriptomics
• Fungal Biology
• Microbial Ecology
• Symbiotic Relationships

His recent research employs metagenomic and transcriptomic analyses to investigate Xanthoria parietina, revealing intricate molecular dialogues between fungal and photobiont partners. This work bridges evolutionary biology, environmental genomics, and microbial ecology, with implications for understanding symbiosis in extreme environments.

Collaborations span international networks as evidenced by multi-institutional publications, showing significant academic engagement with 1 Scopus citation, 25 Mendeley readers, and widespread social media dissemination across X and Bluesky platforms.

Dr. Bucknell maintains active research output through the University of East Anglia's institutional framework, contributing to contemporary understanding of symbiotic systems in changing ecosystems.
