Bem vindo Gustavo

Since 1st November 2020, the Isotope Geochemistry Group welcomes Dr. Gustavo Macedo de Paula Santos as a new member. Previously a postdoctorl researcher at the University of Campinas (Brazil), Gustavo has taken over from Dr. Friedrich Lucassen as an expert in the application of radiogenic and stable isotope systems to unveil environmental changes in Earth’s history. He is currently interested on how continental weathering evolved through time, and focusses on major climatic and tectonic changes and its impact over life evolution. Gustavo will also be involved in teaching, aiming to share his knowledge in geochemistry and earth system change. A warm welcome and a good start! more
