Ugo Marzocchi

Ugo Marzocchi is an Assistant Professor at the Department of Biology - Microbiology, Aarhus University. His research focuses on nutrient cycling in aquatic systems, particularly the role of electro-active bacteria in geochemical processes and technological applications. He holds a PhD and has held postdoctoral positions at Stazione Zoologica Anton Dohrn Napoli and Vrije Universiteit Brussel as a Marie Sklodowska Curie fellow.

Research interests include microbial metabolism, sediment biogeochemistry, and the development of microbial electrochemical technologies. His work integrates sensing techniques and isotopic analyses to study cable bacteria's impact on nitrogen cycling and hydrocarbon degradation. Projects include EU-funded initiatives on sediment electric fields and lake restoration through cable bacteria.

Key projects include eMOVE (2023-2025) exploring electric fields in aquatic sediments and Cable bacteria for lake restoration (2021-2024), aiming to leverage electroactive microbes for environmental remediation. He collaborates internationally on biogeochemical processes and sensor technologies.
