Citation
Jie Deng and Ross Maguire will receive the 2018 Study of the Earth’s Deep Interior Award for Graduate Research at AGU’s Fall Meeting 2018, to be held 10–14 December in Washington, D. C. This award is given annually for advances that contribute to the understanding of the deep interior of the Earth or other planetary bodies using a broad range of observational, experimental, and/or theoretical approaches.
Response
Jie Deng received his B.S. in geology from China University of Geosciences at Wuhan in 2013 and an M.Sc. in geophysics from Yale University in 2016. He is currently working toward a Ph.D. in high-pressure mineral physics under the supervision of Kanani K. M. Lee at Yale University. His research interests include melting and dynamics of Earth’s deep interior and magma ocean–atmosphere coupling using both high-pressure experiments and density functional theory.
