She received her PhD from the Scripps Institution of Oceanography in 2010 and joined the faculty at Yale in 2013 after postdoctoral research at Yale University and the University of Konstanz. Hull’s research focuses on the relationship between open ocean life and the environment during mass extinctions, abrupt climatic events, and changes in background climate state. Her publications span events from the late Cretaceous to the modern day, and typically focus on the fossil record of plankton, particularly planktonic foraminifera. She has recently been awarded a Sloan Research Fellowship in Ocean Science for her work.
