Research Interests: A leading expert in metamorphic petrology and thermal modeling, his work explores fluid-rock interactions, intracontinental orogeny, and subduction zone dynamics. He combines geochemical analysis (e.g., LA-ICP-MS) with tectonic studies to understand Earth's lithospheric evolution.

Publication Trends: His recent studies focus on Li-tracing in garnet, brittle creep processes in subduction zones, and groundwater modeling in data-scarce regions. His work spans Australian geology (Curnamona Province) and global systems (Alpine eclogites, Antarctic crust).

Lab & Team: He contributes to Project LIVE (Learning Through Immersive Virtual Environments), creating educational tools for geoscience through 360° virtual tours and gamified learning modules.
