Graduate Student Researchers

Anthony Fuentes
My research is focused on improving our understanding of key turning points in Earth history using paleomagnetism, geochronology, and lipid biomarkers.

Andrew Gorin
My research at BGC focuses on developing novel applications of cosmogenic nuclides as well as new techniques to study terrestrial paleoclimate.

Caroline Hasler
My research uses U/Pb and Ar/Ar dating to refine the history of magmatism in the Phanerozoic and investigate possible links to Earth's climate.

Andrew Tholt
I work with Paul Renne unraveling the timing of Deccan Trap eruptions and the accretion of North American terranes.
