Dr. Nico Eisenhauer is a soil ecologist with special interest in aboveground-belowground interactions and ecosystem ecology. He is professor for Experimental Interaction Ecology at Leipzig University and research group leader at the German Centre for Integrative Biodiversity Research (iDiv) Halle-Jena-Leipzig. He studies the causes and consequences of biodiversity in global change and biodiversity experiments. Dr. Eisenhauer is speaker of the Jena Experiment and head of the iDiv Ecotron and the MyDiv Experiment.
