Prof. Fang-Zhen Teng of the Department of Earth and Space Sciences was recently elected as a Geochemical Fellow of the Geochemical Society and the European Association of Geochemistry. This international award, established in 1996, is bestowed upon outstanding scientists who have, over some years, made a major contribution to the field of geochemistry. As of now, approximately 380 geochemists worldwide have been honored with this esteemed recognition. The award will be presented at the society’s Goldschmidt Conference held in Chicago this summer.
Fang-Zhen Teng was named a 2024 Geochemical Fellow in recognition of his exceptionally strong record of high-impact science in the development of novel methods and applications of non-traditional, stable isotope studies. His work over the past 20 years advanced our knowledge and state-of-the-art Li, Mg, Fe, and K isotope systems, and laid the foundation for using them to study the composition and evolution of continental crust, crust-mantle interactions, and origin and evolution of the solar system.
