My research interest has evolved from metamorphic petrology towards (micro)structural geology, placing emphasis on the role of fluid-rock interactions and deformation caused by seismic activity under high-pressure conditions. I utilize various techniques such as thermobarometry, thermodynamic modeling, EBSD and µ-CT, as well as U-Pb and Ar/Ar geochronological techniques. So far, the results of my research have been applied to understanding the geodynamics of Scandinavia, Svalbard, and the Greenland Caledonides.
During my Juan de la Cierva postdoctoral fellowship, I investigated the dehydration petrology of serpentinites in paleo-subduction terranes of the Betic Cordillera.
Currently, as a Momentum Programme postdoctoral fellow, I am developing advanced numerical modeling tools to improve our understanding of volatile exchanges and redox reactions in the Earth’s deep interior under high-pressure and high-temperature conditions. This project focuses on efficiently integrating Gibbs free energy minimization (GFEM) with reactive transport models, leveraging AI techniques.
