Lausanne, Waadt, Schweiz Université de Lausanne Vollzeit

Introduction:


UNIL is a leading international teaching and research institution, with over 5,000 employees and 17,000 students split between its Dorigny campus, CHUV and Epalinges.

As an employer, UNIL encourages excellence, individual recognition and responsibility.

Presentation:

The postdoctoral project will combine fieldwork, petrology, geochemistry, experimental petrology and/or computational approaches.

This project will be part of a team effort to study key metamorphic sequences in Europe and North America using fieldwork, micro-computed tomography, and major, minor, trace element and stable isotope mapping.

These large multi-method datasets will be used to assess the degree and length scales of equilibration at peak conditions and to investigate the major petrogenetic processes associated with prolonged crustal metamorphism, such as mineral nucleation growth and modification by diffusion.

The detailed work plan will be agreed with the team members at the beginning of the project.

Previous experience in fieldwork, analytical methods (EPMA, LA-ICPMS, SIMS), experimental or computational methods and kinetics is an advantage but not a requirement.

Internal and external collaborations with experts in petrology, geochemistry and computational approaches are planned.
