Professor Laurent Godin was a NSERC Postdoctoral Fellow at Oxford University (UK) then an Assistant Professor at Simon Fraser University (BC), before coming to Queen’s in 2003. He currently holds Adjunct Professorship status at both Dalhousie University and Simon Fraser University.
Dr. Godin specializes in structural geology and continental tectonics, with a special focus on the evolution of orogenic belts, namely the Himalayan-Tibet system where he has been actively working since 1994. He is also interested by the application of centrifuge analogue modelling, U-Th/Pb geochronology, and 40Ar/39Ar thermochronology to continental tectonics. In addition to mountain belt research, he is involved in projects focusing on seismicity and stress partitioning in continental interiors, investigation of Early Archean geology, and application of structural geology to mineral exploration programs.
