Micheal Spilde
Research Scientist of Earth and Planetary Sciences
Research Interests: I am a mineralogist with interests in both terrestrial and planetary mineralogy/geology. My research has a strong emphasis on the application of electron microbeam techniques (microprobe, SEM, TEM) to problems in mineralogy and geomicrobiology. My current research centers around the study of the interaction between microbes and minerals. This involves the study of how microorganisms survive in subsurface environments, what signatures they leave behind in the form of minerals, and how these biosignatures might be utilized in the search for life on other planets.
