Biography
Claire joined the School of Earth Sciences in 2019 as an Assistant Professor. She previously earned her BSc in Geological Hazards from the University of Portsmouth, followed by her PhD in Volcanology from the University of Leeds. Claire's research now focusses primarily on numerical modelling of volcanic hazards, particularly instability of lava domes and flanks, as well as caldera subsidence. Claire's background is in rock mechanics, and so she is keenly interested in the intersection of volcanology with geotechnical engineering.
