1) Accessory mineral petrogenesis and isotopic robustness.
2) Integration of textural, chemical, and in-situ U-Pb geochronological datsets to reconstruct timescales and tempo of high-grade metamorphism.
3) Effects of metamorphism on the preservation of geochemical and isotopic signatures of pre-existing hydrothermal alteration and mineralization.
3) Examining grain-scale Sm-Nd and Rb-Sr isotope heterogeneity using LA-MC-ICPMS with applications to isotope tracer studies
