Felix Janßen

Felix Janßen is a Researcher at the Max Planck Institute for Marine Microbiology in Bremen, Germany, affiliated with the HGF MPG Joint Research Group for Deep-Sea Ecology and Technology. His work focuses on sediment biogeochemistry, ocean observation systems, and the development of automated in situ measurement technologies to study benthic processes under global change and human impact.

His research interests include organic matter remineralization in sediments, pore water advection dynamics, and assessing how environmental changes affect benthic ecosystems. He contributes to advancing technologies for real-time monitoring of deep-sea environments, bridging gaps between microbial ecology and technological innovation.

Janßen collaborates with institutions like the Alfred Wegener Institute (AWI) and actively participates in marine research initiatives. His group investigates niche formation in microbial habitats and explores regulatory mechanisms for microbial population distribution in extreme environments.
