Profiles in "Cosmochemistry" Expertise Area

  • Melanie Barboni is an isotope geochemist/igneous petrologist whose research focuses on understanding magmatic systems, both on Earth and other planetary bodies.
  • Megan is an Astrophysics PhD student at the School of Earth and Space Exploration. Her research interests include thermodynamic studies of exoplanet atmospheres, exploring this with experimental work in cosmochemistry.
  • Stroud is a planetary scientist and materials physicist interested in the formation and evolution of nanomaterials in astrophysical and laboratory environments. She serves as director of the Buseck Center for Meteorite Studies.
  • Daman is an experimental and analytical geo-/cosmochemist who studies the formation and evolution of rocky bodies in the early solar system using high-pressure temperature experiments, isotope geochemistry, and meteorites.
