Ashish Ashish

Ashish Ashish is a doctoral student at Lund University's Department of Biology, affiliated with the BECC (Biodiversity and Ecosystem Services in a Changing Climate) and Functional Ecology programs. Their research focuses on saprotrophic fungi, particularly wood-degrading mushrooms, using spectroscopy and transcriptomics to study cellulose structural changes during decomposition. They hold an ORCID ID (0000-0003-1671-9864) and have been active in academic events since 2021.
