BIOGRAPHY
Lucy Tweed is a geoscientist from the UK, specialising in petrology and geodynamics. She holds a PhD from Columbia University in New York, and subsequently worked as a postdoctoral researcher at the University of Cambridge in the UK. Her research focuses on coupled phenomena during geological fluid flow. She has worked on a range of geological phenomena including melt-rock reactions and fluid-dynamical instabilities during melt transport in Earth's mantle and cooling and phase transitions during CO2 injection and storage in sedimentary basins. Alongside her scientific research, she has worked extensively on diversity, equity and inclusion initiatives. She is currently a research engineer at BRGM within the Energy and Decarbonisation Division, where she will be developing models of fluid flow applied to geothermal energy and CO2 storage.
