Sally Anne Gibson is a Professor in the Department of Earth Sciences at the University of Cambridge, where she specializes in Petrology and Geochemistry. Her research interests encompass the influences of Earth's deep interior on surface processes and the cycles of volatiles within the planet. Her team conducts detailed field observations and remote studies across various volcanic regions, including Africa, North and South America, and oceanic locales. Gibson's work aims to shed light on the formation and evolution of Earth's lithosphere and the important role of ancient continental cores in global volatile cycling. She has significantly advanced knowledge in the fields of mantle dynamics and magmatic processes, with a special focus on how these relate to volcanism and critical metal resources. Her ongoing projects, including the REE-LITH project, investigate rare earth element deposits and their implications for a sustainable future. She has contributed to numerous scholarly publications and is actively involved in supervising PhD candidates.
