Gast Lectureship
Recipient of the 2013 Gast Lectureship:
Sujoy Mukhopadhyay, University of Harvard, USA
About the Gast Lectureship
This award is bestowed jointly by the EAG and the Geochemical Society and has been named in honor of Paul Gast, the first Goldschmidt medallist (the Goldschmidt award is bestowed by the Geochemical Society). This lectureship is awarded to a mid-career scientist for outstanding contributions to geochemistry. The lecture is presented at the Goldschmidt Conference.
The selection of the lecturer alternates between the GS Board of Directors and the EAG Council depending on the location of the Goldschmidt Conference.
