Blake Hodgin

Postdoctoral Researcher (2020 – 2022)

Blake’s research focuses on integrating geologic and geochronological constraints to improve understanding of terrane tectonics and paleogeography in the Neoproterozoic and Paleozoic eras. His research directions at Berkeley included the development of new chronostratigraphic constraints to further understanding of contractional deformation within the interior of ancient North America at the time of the Grenvillian orogeny.
