Geobiology and Geochemistry

The Geobiology and Geochemistry research group investigates the fundamental connections between biological evolution, environmental change, and the chemistry of Earth’s air, water, minerals and rocks.

"Geobiology" is the study of Earth–life interactions on all scales, from the interface between a single bacterium and a crystal face to the global geological drivers of mass extinctions. 

"Geochemistry" is the study of chemical constituents, reactions and cycles occurring in Earth’s rocks, groundwater, oceans and atmosphere.

Our research group bridges these fields to explore how life has interacted with its planetary environment over geological time.  We benefit from access to a large number of cutting-edge instruments and facilities.

Our research is thanks to the hard work of the people in this group. Click their names to find out more on their profile.

Research case studies

(working title)

[ In future development of the site, there will be an opportunity for each research group to have a select number (no more than 3 ) of research case studies to showcase on their page. These will be links to research case studies that are/will be in the "Featured Research" section. 

This could be research that members of your group are most proud of, feel like it reflects best on the range of research undertaken, or would be most attractive to prospective research students. ]
