रुचि के क्षेत्र:

My own research to date has been on Archaean TTGs and high-K granitoids (including sanukitoids) and the Proterozoic reworking of these. My current focus is on understanding the when, where and how the continental crust was formed and has evolved to its present day volume, composition and architecture. Currently I am working on whole rock geochemistry and isotopes (Sr-Nd systematics) and also investigating the use accessory minerals in understanding crustal evolutionary processes using U-Pb/Hf isotopic systematics and trace elements.
