Biography

Prof. Gunde-Cimerman is the first to discover halophilic and halotolerant fungi in hypersaline environments around the world. She is also the first to discover psychrophilic and psychrotolerant fungi in Arctic glaciers (Svalbard, Norway), in particular in the subglacial environment and on the Greenland Ice Sheet, but also extreme domestic
