I am Ph.D. student in Phylocology research group at Charles University in Prague (http://botany.natur.cuni.cz/algo/algo-main.html). My prime interest is community ecology of green algae. Algae are very interesting model organisms; they are mostly unicellular; are found in wide range of habitats and they respond to changes of environment very swiftly, because of their very short generation times. Here in CEFE I am working on trait-based biogeography of desmids (green algae) in cooperation with Cyrille Violle.
