The project explores the microbial biodiversity of high-altitude lakes in the Andes, focusing on extremophiles that thrive in harsh conditions. It aims to understand their DNA repair mechanisms, which could have implications for biotechnology and astrobiology.
The High-Altitude Andean Lakes (HAAL) in the South American ""Puna-High Andes” are an almost unexplored ecosystem of shallow lakes at altitudes from 3,000 to 6,000 m above sea level.
Although exposed to a broad range of extreme conditions they harbour an abundant microbial biodiversity that thrive in environmental conditions of high resemblance to those present in Earth`s early atmosphere.
As part of our team in Argentina I have investigated this wide-ranging diversity by culturable and non-cult…
