个人简历

I completed my Ph.D. in soil microbial ecology at The University of Tokyo in 2011. I have worked as an Assistant Professor at the University of Tokyo since 2011 and have conducted numerous international collaborations across Japan, China, and the U.S. In 2022, I joined the Institute of Ecology, College of Urban and Environmental Sciences at Peking University as a Tenure-track Associate Professor, where I launched a laboratory on soil microbial ecology.

Isobe's research group is seeking highly motivated Ph.D. students and post-doctoral fellows interested in soil microbial ecology and plant-microbe interactions. Please feel free to contact Kazuo Isobe (contact: kazuo.isobe@pku.edu.cn)

We are studying soil microbial communities' interaction with the environment and its consequences on ecosystem functions. In particular, we explore how soil microbial communities facilitate soil formation, nutrient cycling, and plant growth.
