Shichun Huang is an Associate Professor in the Department of Earth & Planetary Sciences at the University of Tennessee at Knoxville. His research focuses on high-temperature geochemistry, igneous and metamorphic petrology, metal stable isotope geochemistry, and cosmochemistry. Huang holds a PhD from MIT (2005) and a BSc from the University of Science and Technology of China (1998). His work integrates experimental and computational methods to study Earth's mantle and the early Solar System, with recent projects exploring mantle plumes, isotope fractionation, and planetary formation processes.
Notable contributions include studies on calcium isotope dynamics in mantle melting, Hawaiian plume flux variations, and machine learning applications to mantle thermobarometry. Huang leads sponsored projects funded by NSF and DOE, addressing critical mineral recovery and planetary biosignatures. He coordinates the UTK ICP-MS lab and serves on editorial boards for Geochimica et Cosmochimica Acta and Scientific Reports. His teaching includes advanced courses in geochemical data analysis and seminar series on geochemistry.
Recent articles highlight interdisciplinary approaches in mantle dynamics, planetary differentiation, and stellar chemistry. His work bridges field observations, laboratory experiments, and computational modeling to advance understanding of Earth's evolution and extraterrestrial processes.
