To provide you with an even better service, while also securing conditions for the Secretariat to perform daily tasks, we have introduced service hours in the Secretariat. This means that every colleague has specific hours where they will be available to assist you with questions.

The Secretariat is open for inquiries every day:
• Kl. 10.30-12.00
• Kl. 13.00-14.30

Service hours:
• Monday: Krishna
• Tuesday: Tove
• Wednesday: Tove
• Thursday: Kathrine
• Friday: Krishna

We look forward to assisting you.

No less than five researchers at the department have received grants from DFF this time.

Stephane Bodin for the project: "From the ocean to the continent: A leap forward in our understanding of the Jenkyns Event (Toarcian, Early Jurassic)"

Christof Pearce for the project: "GreenTrace: Trace Fossils as quantitative proxies in Quaternary paleoceanography around Greenland"

Marit-Solveig L.S. Seidenkrantz: “Pliocene and Early Pleistocene: analogue for future warm conditions in the Arctic (PlioArc)”

Mads Andreas Faurschou Knudsen: The southern Caucasus – a hotspot for early human evolution and dispersal?

Søren Munch Kristiansen: The cradles of agrodiversity in Northern Europe: A Holocene soil chronosequence approach (CRADLESOIL)

We congratulate the researchers and look forward to the valuable insights these projects will bring.

Hello, my name is Tim, and I've started as an Assistant Professor in Quaternary Geology. I've come from Liverpool John Moores University in the UK where I taught and researched since 2015. My research is primarily focused on better understanding past changes in ice sheet and glacier dynamics, mostly during the last glacial cycle. I enjoy fieldwork in remote locations and have recently got back from my first research cruise, on the RRS Sir David Attenborough, to southeast Greenland.

I'm excited to start exploring Denmark, both for research and pleasure! Outside work I enjoy running, swing dancing, and being outside.

My research focuses on geochemical tracers to investigate the origin of archaeological metals and, more broadly, on applying Earth science analytical techniques to solve historical questions.

After studying geology and geochemistry for my M.Sc. degree, I completed my Ph.D. at the University of Toulouse (France). My doctoral research concerned the use of iron isotope analysis as a new approach to investigate the provenance of ancient iron. Then, my first postdoctoral position at the École Normale Supérieure de Lyon (France) aimed to identify the Roman sources of silver in the Iberian Peninsula using combined lead and silver isotope analysis of coin collections and archaeological ores.

During a second postdoc at the Field Museum of Natural History in Chicago (Illinois, United States), I worked on the optimisation of the portable laser ablation (pLA) technique for the sampling and subsequent elemental and isotopic analysis of archaeological metal objects.

In the frame of my two-year Marie Curie fellowship (MSCA), my work as a postdoc in the Department of Geoscience will focus on the production and dissemination of iron from Iceland during the Viking Age, using multi-elemental and isotopic analyses. Trough the restitution of the circulation network of iron between Iceland, Scandinavian homelands, Greenland and North America, this research project aims to better understand the migration patterns of the Norse population across the whole North Atlantic region.

Jeg hedder Ingeborg og er vikarierende sekretariatsleder her på Geoscience. Derudover er jeg teamkoordinator og daglig leder i sekretariatet på Institut for Kemi. Jeg har en baggrund i statskundskab og har bl.a. arbejdet i Udenrigsministeriet, Sundhedsstyrelsen og Aarhus Kommune. Jeg bor på et nedlagt landbrug på Mols med min mand og min søn.

My name is Ingeborg. I’m acting head of the Secretariat here at Geoscience. Additionally, I’m team coordinator and daily manager in the Secretariat at the Department of Chemistry. I have a background in political science and have worked at the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, The National Health Agency and Aarhus Municipality. I live on a farm in Mols with my husband and my son.

Have you published an exciting article? Have you participated in a podcast? Have you received a grant or something else that could be interesting news either on the website or in the newsletter?

Then write to Kathrine Eg and she will fix it.
