Isaline Demangel

Postdoctoral fellow, M.Sc.; Ph.D. Student

Personal profile

Research

My leading research interest is to understand the evolution of phytoplankton and the process of biomineralisation over geological time. During my doctoral study at the University of Graz (Austria), I first focused on the early evolution of pelagic calcification in calcareous nannoplankton and the impact on the ocean chemistry. In September 2022, I started a three-year postdoctoral research position, and directed my research focus on the importance of biosilicification in non-obligatory silicifying phytoplankton during the Mesozoic Era. This project aims to investigate the role of Prasinophytes, a group of green algae, in the uptake of dissolved silica (dSi) and the accumulation of biogenic silica (bSi) throughout geological time scales, from the Neoproterozoic (~700 Ma) to the present.
