You’re invited to a special virtual lecture given by the 2022 Barrow Award winner, Prof. Katy Evans! 🎉 🪨 To be held on Zoom, Sept 15th at 2 pm BST. Sign up here: forms.gle/r5yjYL8FixAfzV…

Do you have a colleague that has made an outstanding contribution to metamorphic petrology, relative to their career length to-date?! Nominate them for our 2023 Barrow Award! 🪨 ⚒️🔬

More than a little keen to be diving into day two at University of Bristol Earth Sciences. Excited for new colleagues, collaborations, and field teaching, and humbled by the support you show EC researchers like myself. Plus, the office view isn’t too bad.

At risk of being lambasted by all my zircon-mad colleagues, team #staurolite, because who doesn’t love a mineral that likes to say “f-you” to systematic phase equilibria?!

We're marking #InternationalWomenInScienceDay by celebrating the work of some of our wonderful women scientists at University of Bristol. Today meet Freya George, a geologist in University of Bristol Earth Sciences . linkedin.com/posts/science-…

For the love of all things volcano and love and science! 🥰🏳️‍🌈🌋

So so gutted to unexpectedly miss the second day of Metamorphic Studies Group 2023 after an awesome first day! 😫 But amazing to be able to chime in virtually to hear Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute’s incomparable Frank Spear talk all things nucleation and grain boundaries (😍) in his Barrow Award talk 🎉

That’s a wrap on day 1 of Naxos 101 for the third year University of Bristol Earth Sciences geologists! Migmatites, metamorphic core complexes and mezé galore! ⚒️

Yiamas to the University of Bristol Earth Sciences third year geologists and a cracking week. Final days saw us unwravelling ophiolites, detachments, and even some (not so) rogue sediments! 🪨⚒️☀️

A core-some time at Cornish Lithium to end the University of Bristol Earth Sciences field trip! 🪨 ⚒️ We’ve dunite! 🎉 (Ok, I’m finally done with the puns)

Come talk all things hard-rock with us at University of Bristol Earth Sciences and Wills Memorial building! 🪨⚒️

Let’s keep science woke. JK - let’s ensure that science does not happen in a vacuum, that “everyone can be included in science, protected from abuse in the name of science, and benefit from the products of science” ✉️

Move aside thin section Thursday, and welcome to FIB Friday. 🎉 Isn’t she gorgeous?!🔬🪨🌎

Metamorphic rocks are great. Kinetics are cool. Bristol is awesome. Remote participation possible! Come to our conference! 🪨 ☀️ 🔬🏔️🌍 Registration links and more info here: metamorphicstudiesgroup.wordpress.com/msg-rip-2024/

After a long weekend of a lot of chocolate and relaxation, revisiting last week’s awesome Metamorphic Studies Group RiP meeting. Thanks everyone for coming from near and far, to ZEISS Microscopy for sponsorship, and to University of Bristol Earth Sciences for being an excellent host! 🪨🔨🌍

Thanks Sascha Zertani for coming! Awesome picture of the Wills Memorial building in between showers!

Thanks for coming Pierre Lanari - an incredibly worthy Barrow Award Winner! So pleased to have all the lovey folks from Institute of Geological Sciences, Uni Bern at University of Bristol Earth Sciences, we appreciate you all making the journey 🙂🎉
