"I am recruiting motivated students to join my group towards Masters or PhD at the University of Utah - Department of Geology & Geophysics for Fall 2024. Potential projects are around water-rock interactions. Projects can be tailored to student interests. Some potential ideas involve the alteration of mantle rocks with implications for the global carbon cycle, carbon mineralization and hydrogen production or kinetics of mineral reactions during carbon storage. I am seeking candidates interested in working with natural samples (Oman and Mexico) within a laboratory setting, with potential field work. The projects will involve experiments under hydrothermal conditions combined with analytical work at the UofU state of the art facilities (ICP-MS lab, EMPA, NanoFab) and modeling components. Interested students should send CV and expression of interest to [email protected]"-Prof. Juan Carlos de Obeso.

A new PhD started today. She asked for general advice for the first few months. This was my advice:
1. Donโt work evenings or weekends
2. Donโt aim to prove yourself (to me), Iโm already convinced of your capacities
3. Go for a walk when things dazzle you (1/3)
