I entered the earth sciences family in 2004 for doing a Bachelor Degree in Geosciences at the University of Lausanne, which I achieved in 2007. I joined the Ore Deposit Group of Geneva for my Master thesis under the supervision of Dr. Robert Moritz from the University of Geneva and Dr. Panagiotis Voudouris from the University of Athens.

In January 2010, I started with my PhD project directed by Dr. Kalin Kouzmanov and Prof. Lluís Fontboté :

Chemistry and P-T of fluids trapped in co-genetic opaque ore and transparent gangue minerals: What are the real ore-precipitating fluids?

Samples for my thesis have been collected during the 2010 field campaigns in Bulgaria (Madan ore district) and in Montana, USA (Butte ore district)

Butte, Montana (USA)

Galena from the Madan Ore District, Bulgaria
