Research and Academic Interests:

Stable isotope planetary- and cosmochemistry applied to meteoritics, early Solar System evolution, planetary accretion and differentiation, and Earth's core formation (in particular O and Si stable isotopes). Novel isotope systems and analytical techniques - to understand in more details the processes controlling distribution and cycling of elements in planets.
