She worked as a research fellow for several years first at Sydney Water, then University of Copenhagen, and then Macquarie University. In 2008 she was hired as a senior lecturer at University of Sydney, New South Wales, and in 2018 she was appointed an associate professor by UNSW and a Future Fellow

Because the conditions needed for the existence of these microorganisms are so minimal, the study has also cast light on the question of what would be needed for 80:.
