Research Interests

My main research interests
include: Understanding the origin and evolution of the terrestrial
planets through the application of geochemical techniques. Use of
geochemical tools to unravel the major differentiation processes
throughout Earth’s history. Study of the dynamics of orogenic
cycles through a combination of geochronology, metamorphic petrology
and structural geology. Development of new geochemical approaches and
laboratory techniques.
