Summary

I am a Petrologist working on igneous rock. My research focuses on understanding types, mechanisms and timescale of pre- and syn-eruptive magmatic processes at active volcanoes. I am also interested in crystalline rocks as evidence of crystal mush, mantle xenoliths, subduction zones, lithosphere evolution and relationships between magmatism and tectonics. I approach these problems using micro-analytical techniques and geochemical and isotope analyses. I use the rocks to understand the hidden magmatic processes, as a psychologist explores the human mind.

Introduction

Summary

I am a Petrologist working on igneous rock. My research focuses on understanding types, mechanisms and timescale of pre- and syn-eruptive magmatic processes at active volcanoes. I am also interested in crystalline rocks as evidence of crystal mush, mantle xenoliths, subduction zones, lithosphere evolution and relationships between magmatism and tectonics. I approach these problems using micro-analytical techniques and geochemical and isotope analyses. I use the rocks to understand the hidden magmatic processes, as a psychologist explores the human mind.
