 | | Born in Yorkshire, England, Steve studied Geology at the University of Southampton (England, 1979), followed by M.Sc. |
 | | After postdoctoral research at the Max Planck Institut für Chemie (Mainz, 1986-1990), he moved to the University of Göttingen (1990-2000), and then the University of Greifswald (2000-2003) before moving to Mainz in September 2003. |
 | | His main research interests include the melting processes that lead to the production of volcanic melts, particularly alkaline melts, trace element abundances in igneous and metamorphic rocks and minerals, subduction zone processes, petrology and tectonics during the first half of the Earth’s history, and the petrology of the mantle and melting processes in rift settings. |
