Curriculum Vitae
Originally from Rothenburg/Oberlausitz Henry concluded his graduate studies in Marine Biology at the University of Rostock. Afterwards, he worked as field assistant for several research institutes until he joined our IMPRS in 2016. His PhD project was based in the pipefish group of Dr. Olivia Roth at the Geomar Kiel, supervised by Dr. Carolin Wendling. It focused on rapid evolutionary adaptation in response to anthropogenic stressors in a three-way host-parasite interaction. The model system consists of pipefish Syngnathus typhle as final host, bacteria of the genus Vibrio, and their associated temperate phages. Henry defended his thesis in February 2021.
