Research interests:
My research interests revolve around the late Archaean through Proterozoic tectonic evolution of the Fennoscandian Shield and its impact on the formation of metallogenetic provinces, the Great Proterozoic Accretionary Orogen in Laurentia and Fennoscandia, and the origin and history of nappes in the Scandinavian Caledonides.
Much of my work revolves around the use of isotopic data, mainly U-Pb in zircon, titanite and monazite, Lu-Hf, Sm-Nd, Pb-Pb, Rb-Sr and S.
