BIO
Research Interests
I study the geodynamics of the Earth''s lithosphere and mantle by using a combination of numerical, dynamic modeling, conversion of thermo-chemical structure into geophysical parameters such as seismic velocity and density, and comparison with various observables. I have applied these tools to a diverse range of topics, ranging from structure of the continental lithosphere, subduction and plume dynamics to seismic hazard
Biography
At Imperial College London, UK since 2005. Professor since 2019
SNF Professor of Tectonophysics, ETH Zurich, Switzerland, 2003-2005
Oberassistent, ETH Zurich, Switzerland, 1999-2003
Postdoctoral Researcher, Utrecht University, the Netherlands, 1996-1999
Visiting Assistant Professor, University of Michigan, Ann Arbor, USA,1995-1996
PhD, University of California, Santa Cruz, USA, 1990-1995
Drs (equivalent of BSc Msc), Utrecht University, the Netherlands, 1985-1990
Invited Lectures and Presentations
I have given invited talks at many of the leading annual conferences in my field, such as the American Geophysical Union, European Geosciences Union, Goldschmidt Conference of the Geochemical Society, and a Gordon Conference as well as specialist workshops. I have given invited seminars at over a dozen universities, including Oxford, Cambridge, UCL, Bristol, Leeds, Southampton, Liverpool, Trondheim, Karlsruhe, Rennes, Montpellier, and the Australian National University.
Undergraduate Courses/Modules
ESE 5.27 Geodynamics
ESE 4.16 Geohazards
1st/2nd Year Tutorials
