Research Assoc-Experimental, SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory
BioI am interested in how Earth’s smallest constituents, microbes, cycle nutrients in aquatic ecosystems. I earned my PhD from the Department of Earth System Science at Stanford University focused on microbial ecology. I used molecular and biogeochemical approaches to understand the abundance, distribution, and activity of nitrifying bacteria and archaea in San Francisco Bay. My research used DNA, RNA, nitrification rate, and water quality data to uncover and characterize recurring massive ammonia-oxidizing archaea blooms in South Bay. For my postdoctoral work, I will use metagenomics to study subsurface microbial ecology in a river floodplain in collaboration with the Floodplain Hydro-Biogeochemistry Scientific Focus Area managed by a team at the SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory.

Jocelyn Richardson
Associate Scientist, SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory
BioI am an Associate Scientist at SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory, where I explore the intersection of biology and the environment. My research delves into the biogeochemical processes that govern the cycling of essential elements like phosphorus (P), sulfur (S), and potassium (K). With expertise in X-ray Fluorescence (XRF) imaging and tender energy X-ray Absorption Spectroscopy (XAS), I apply these advanced techniques to a diverse range of systems. At SSRL, I contribute to enhancing outreach and engagement with the biological and environmental research communities, offering training and fostering collaboration with both new and experienced users of advanced X-ray methods.
Before joining SSRL, I earned my PhD from Washington University in St. Louis, where my research focused on the geochemical signatures of sulfur in Ordovician marine sediments, employing a combination of sedimentology, bulk geochemistry, and microanalytical techniques. I am originally from Scotland and obtained my BSc in Geology from the University of St. Andrews in Scotland. -
