Abstract:

Antje Boetius is a microbiological oceanographer hailing from Frankfurt, Germany, and working at the Max Planck Institute for Marine Microbiology as a professor of geomicrobiology. Boetius’s work on anaerobic methanotrophs has helped break open some of environmental microbiology’s big questions. This chapter is a personal reflection from Jeffrey Marlow on Dr. Boetius’s life and career, with commentary from Antje herself as well as numerous friends and colleagues.
