My research in mineralogy, environmental mineralogy and geochemistry provides molecular-level understanding of heavy metal(loid)s and radionuclides in common minerals and related materials, with applications to managing the risks and benefits of mining industry and nuclear technology for our society and the environment. Another major objective of my research is to provide mechanistic understanding of mineralization processes in magmatic, metamorphic and hydrothermal systems. Scientific approaches include diverse state-of-the-art experimental techniques (e.g. EPR spectroscopy and synchrotron-based methods) and first-principles theoretical calculations.
