Descripción
Claudia Rojas, es académica del Instituto de Ciencias Agroalimentarias, Animales y Ambientales de la Universidad de O’Higgins. Antes de ocupar su cargo actual, se desempeñó como investigadora postdoctoral en el Departamento de Ingeniería Hidráulica y Ambiental de la Pontificia Universidad Católica de Chile y en el Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering, The Pennsylvania State University en Estados Unidos. Anteriormente, trabajó como docente en el Department of Ecosystem Sciences and Management de la misma universidad norteamericana.
La investigación de Claudia tiene un enfoque colaborativo interdisciplinario para, desde la ecología microbiana y biogeoquímica de suelos, entender la contribución de la diversidad microbiana edáfica a la dinámica del C en ecosistemas terrestres, la resiliencia y restauración de bosques y sitios contaminados de zonas Mediterráneas, y a la adaptación de agroecosistemas a los impactos del cambio climático.
