Carla Tiraboschi

University of Münster, Germany

I am an experimental petrologist from Italy. Currently, I am based at the University of Münster in Germany, where I have been working since 2018. My research interests include investigating volatile-bearing systems and the mass transfer operated by fluids and melts under high-pressure and high-temperature conditions.

As a white, cisgender woman, I acknowledge the privileges that have helped me throughout my academic journey, including access to free higher education and the opportunity to study in different European countries. However, I am also aware of some of the struggles that women face in academia, such as gender bias and the challenge of balancing family and work responsibilities.

In an effort to contribute to creating a more diverse, equal, and inclusive academic environment, I have joined the DEI committee. I am passionate about promoting these values and confident that my service on the committee can make a positive impact.
