Lecturer
My research interests lie mostly in classic geology, both structural and petrological, with application to tectonic evolution of continental collision zones - the Himalayan & Alpine orogen in particular. I received BSc(hons) in Geology from Edinburgh University in 2003, with final dissertation on nappe formation in the Austrian Alps, and followed with my PhD in 2007 from the Open University, UK, Thesis title ‘Crustal melting beneath southern Tibet’. My research field still follows continental collisional tectonics where I specialize in geochemistry and geochronology of crustal anatexis and high grade metamorphism, with a view to understanding mid to deep crustal behavior, particularly the role of crustal melting, during orogenesis
