Irene Wagner-Döbler studied biology at the Ludwig-Maximilians-Universität in Munich and obtained her PhD in 1984 with a thesis in aquatic ecology.[2] In 2001, she obtained her habilitation at the Technical University of Braunschweig. Her habilitation dealt with the detoxification of mercury-containing wastewater using a newly discovered Pseudomonas putida strain and a bioreactor specifically developed for this purpose.[3] For this work she received the "Stifterverband Science Award - Erwin-Schrödinger Preis"[4] of the Helmholtz-Association of German Research Centers in 2001.[5]
As a research group leader at the Helmholtz Centre for Infection Research (2004-2018) and associate professor at the Technical University Braunschweig (from 2007) AG Wagner-Döbler, she focused on microbial communication, in particular quorum sensing and algal-bacterial interactions in the ocean (Roseobacter Transregio[6]).
She is the author of more than 150 scientific papers,[7] with publications including de novo sequencing of the algal symbiont Dinoroseobacter shibae and its dinoflagellate host Prorocentrum cordatum.
