We studied modern microbial mat ecosystems on the Turks and Caicos islands to better understand signals in ancient rocks that preserved fossil mats

My role was to study the organic geochemistry of the mats and trace the fate of lipids in active growing mats to decayed mats.

This window into the 'early diagenesis' of microbial mats is a critical point in linking what we understand about modern microbial ecosystems to the signals we find in fossil mats hundreds of millions of years old.
