Raphaël Gottardi
Structural Geology and Tectonics 
​Website

I am interested in tectonic processes affecting the continental crust, including collision, crustal thickening, orogenic collapse, and the development of continental metamorphic core complexes. I have also developed an interest in modeling fluid flow, heat transfer, and deformation in fault zones. I combine structural geology, geochemical and geochronological techniques, numerical simulations, microstructural and microfabric analyses to study the evolution and the thermal and mechanical properties of the continental crust.

Davide Oppo
Sedimentology; Petroleum geology
​Website

I am a broadly trained sedimentologist and my core research interests lie at the intersection of sedimentology, biogeochemistry and geophysics. Most of my research focuses at the multidisciplinary study of fluid flows in sedimentary basins, the sediment distribution and accumulation along continental margins, and the analysis of ancient tsunamis .

Eric Ferré
Structural Geology and Tectonics
​

My current research focuses on deformation of the Earth's lithosphere, both in oceanic and continental settings, both at the geologically slow and seismically fast timescales. My main tools for addressing scientific questions are rock magnetism and paleomagnetism​
