Manhattan LebrunDr. Manhattan Lebrun received her master's degree in Environmental Science at the University of Orleans, France, and a Ph.D. in Bioenvironmental at the University of Molise, Italy. During her Ph.D., she mainly focused on the rhizosphere area, analyzig the root physiology (root proteome profile, root oxidative stress, root exudates) and of the microbial community (sequencing, enzyme activities, community level physiological profiles). Following her postdoc research, she focused on using amendments to ameliorate the fertility of agriculture soil. Dr. Lebrun primarily studied the physiological responses of plants to drought and amendments (leaf gas exchange, proline content) and the nitrogen cycle (N2O emissions, nitrogen related enzymes). She has published over 36 research papers in reputable journals and 2 book chapters. Read More Read Less
