Avni joined the EEGL in January 2020. Her research focuses on constraining the factors that influence non-classical crystallisation and transformation pathways in Ca-Mg Carbonates alongside understanding the effects of these processes on trace metal mobility and isotopic fractionation. Prior to joining the EEGL, Avni completed her MSci research project with the Carbonate Research Group, Imperial College London, in which she used clumped isotope thermometry to differentiate diagenetic conditions.
