Niculina Musat

Niculina Musat is an Associate Professor at the Department of Biology Microbiology, Aarhus University. Her research focuses on microbial ecophysiology and single-cell microbiology, particularly microbial metabolic interactions in natural and synthetic environments. She develops methodologies combining mass spectrometry imaging, isotope tracing, and microscopy to study microbial metabolism at single-cell resolution.

Her work emphasizes correlative analyses for identifying microbial cells, subcellular components, and metabolic products. Key research themes include antibiotic resistance dynamics in water systems, archaeal alkane oxidation, and microbial contributions to metabolic diseases. She has published extensively on topics like antibiotic resistome distribution, biogeochemical cycles, and microbial community interactions.

Dr. Musat's lab employs cutting-edge techniques such as nanoSIMS and PNAS Nexus-based analyses. While no formal awards are listed, her publications reflect impactful contributions to environmental and medical microbiology. No specific grants or advising records are documented here, though her research collaborations are evident through co-authored works.
