I am an experimental petrologist with a strong interest in fluid-rock interactions. My research explores the dynamic relationship between fluid flow, deformation, and chemical reactions, with a focus on (de-)hydration and (de-)carbonation processes in ultramafic rocks. To address these topics, I conduct high-pressure and high-temperature experiments, both with and without deformation.
The findings of my research are crucial for advancing our understanding of fluid cycles in the Earth's crust and subduction zones, potentially leading to improved insights into earthquake trigger mechanisms, elemental cycling, and future energy resources.
I am a co-organizer of the monthly webinar series SerpentineDays and was involved on the organization of the 5th SerpentineDays meeting 2024 in Granada (Spain).
