Elizabeth Catlos
Earth and Planetary Sciences
Elizabeth Catlos focuses on developing and applying petrochemical and geochemical techniques to the study of lithosphere dynamics and models for heat, mass, and fluid flow along major fault systems. She is interested in applying new approaches in mineral equilibria to estimate environmental conditions during dynamic recrystallization. She specializes in accessory mineral geochronology and developing techniques for isotopic microanalysis.
Daniele Cuneo
Asian Studies
Daniele Cuneo's research interests include Sanskrit intellectual and literary cultures, with a particular focus on poetry and aesthetics, although he branches out into epistemology, linguistic philosophy, debates among Brahmins, Buddhists and Jains, and conversation between traditions and (post-)modernity.
