In 2015, an anonymous donor made a major gift to the Geochemical Society to launch a new endowed lecture to highlight innovative research in biogeochemistry. This prestigious lecture series, presented annually at the Goldschmidt Conference, recognizes a prominent scientist who is making cutting-edge field-based measurements or laboratory measurements on field samples in the area of biogeochemistry.
The GS is pleased to announce that Dr. Jennifer Pett-Ridge, Group Leader, Environmental Isotope Systems at the Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory (USA) will deliver the 2019 Endowed Biogeochemistry Lecture. Details about her presentation will be posted in April.
