Toni Galloway

Toni Galloway is a Researcher at the School of Earth & Environmental Sciences, University of St Andrews. Her work focuses on using terrestrial hot springs as analogues for early Mars environments to explore the potential for past extraterrestrial life.

Research Interests:

• Astrobiology: Investigating biosignatures in extreme environments.
• Geobiology: Linking geochemical processes to microbial activity.
• Stable Isotope Analysis: Studying fractionations as potential life indicators.

Research Output Highlights: Her recent publications examine nitrogen and carbon cycling in Martian analogue systems, microbial habitability constraints, and isotopic biosignatures in hydrothermal settings.

Collaborations: Works with supervisors and researchers including Dr. C. R. Cousins and Dr. E. E. Stüeken, contributing to datasets on Icelandic hot springs, Mars meteorites, and geothermal systems.
