I am interested in applying geochemical techniques to resolve geological and multidisciplinary problems. My main research objectives are deciphering the relationships between magmatism and ore deposit formation and development of new analytical techniques. I am also involved in various multidisciplinary projects, ranging from applying isotope geochemistry to environmental, archaeological, and sedimentological problems, to deciphering of magmatic and mantle processes and dating of U-bearing minerals. I manage the ICP-MS Laboratory at the Department of Geological Sciences at the University of Florida, which includes Element2 HR-ICP-MS, Nu-Plasma MC-ICP-MS, and New Wave 213nm UV Laser Ablation system.
