My research has mainly focused on the formation of Ni–Cu–PGE sulfide deposits through mantle melting, crustal differentiation, and magma–sediment interaction. To understand how sulfide saturation and metal transport operate during these processes, I have employed high‑temperature experiments and thermodynamic modeling. I am currently developing an experimentally constrained mantle‑melting model applicable to rocky exoplanets, with the broader aim of understanding how variations in mantle composition and melt production influence the geological evolution and atmospheric development of terrestrial worlds.
