My research project is devoted to the reconstruction of the evolution of a unique type of caves, that are formed in depth under the surface – hypogene crystal caves- and the paleohydrologic regime involved in their formation.

I am interested in U-series dating of terrestrial carbonate deposits (calcrete and tufa in particular) and their palaeoenvironmental potential for understanding climate change and human evolution in the southern Kalahari region in South Africa.
