معرفی
Dr. Martin Hartmann is a Lecturer at the Department of Environmental Systems Science, ETH Zurich. His research focuses on microbial ecology, soil science, and molecular biology, particularly studying the soil microbiome's response to environmental changes to understand ecosystem functionality. He holds a PhD in Microbial Ecology from ETH Zurich and Agroscope (2007), followed by a postdoctoral fellowship at the University of British Columbia (2007–2011). He has served as a senior researcher at WSL (2015–2018) and currently leads research in sustainable agroecosystems at ETH Zurich.
Education
