EXPERIMENTAL PETROLOGY AND MINERAL PHYSICS LAB
We combine experimental, computational, and field-based studies to understand the structure, composition, and role of volatiles in the Earth’s interior. Additionally, we study the meteorites that have undergone shock events, providing valuable insights into the composition of the Earth’s interior.
