Committee Members
GeoREX is a research symposium organised by students. If you are interested in joining the GeoREX committee, please reach out to us at georex@ucalgary.ca.
Katie Biegel
PhD Candidate in Geophysics
Katie is a PhD candidate focusing on computional seismology. She works with modeling and fault imaging for induced seismicity in Alberta and natural small seismicity in the SW Yukon.
Katie has been on the GeoREX committee for three years.
Simone Pujatti
PhD Candidate in Geology
Simone is investigating modern and ancient hydrothermal systems in the shallow Earth, by employing petrologic techniques, analytical geochemistry, thermodynamic and kinetic modelling tools.
This is Simone's second year on the committee.
Qin Zhang
PhD Candidate in Geology
Qin is investigating carbon dioxide storage in sedimentary reservoirs, specifically focuses on harvesting the potential of converting glauconite-rich greensands formations into siderite, as a safe, permanent carbon storage mechanism.
This is Qin’s first year on the committee.
Md Shihab Uddin
MSc Student
Shihab is a Master's student with research interests in hydrogeology and groundwater modeling. He is investigating impacts of climate crisis on groundwater in the Canadian Prairies.
Shihab has joined the GeoREX committee this year.
