Janne Blichert-Toft is a geochemist, specializing in the use of isotopes with applications in understanding planetary mantle-crust evolution, as well as the chemical composition of matter in the universe. To further this research, Blichert-Toft has developed techniques for high-precision Isotope-ratio mass spectrometry measurements.[1]

Biography

Subsequently, Blichter-Toft was at the Australian National University in 2004, at Cambridge University in 2005, at Tokyo University in 2006, and at the University of Chicago in 2011.[3]

From 2008 to 2015, she was also adjunct faculty and Distinguished Wiess Visiting Scholar at Rice University.[4]

Education

After her Marie-Curie post-doctorate, Blichert-Toft joined the CNRS in 1997 and became Director of Research in 2002 working at the École normale supérieure de Lyon.

Work

After her Marie-Curie Post-Doctorate, Blichert-Toft joined the Centre national de la recherche scientifique (CNRS) in 1997 and became Director of Research in 2002, working at the École normale supérieure de Lyon.

She pioneered the application of hafnium isotopes to the evolution of the Earth and the early solar system.[7]
