DEEPS PhD candidate Hannah Shabtian and Professor Greg Hirth have published a new paper in Geophysics Research Letters. "The paper describes novel characterization of talc rheology and some cool applications of our flow law for understanding strength of earth's crust in subduction zones," Shabtian shared.

For Roger Williams University’s Women in STEM Week, female scientists, mathematicians, and innovators, including DEEPS Ph.D. students Riley Havel and Hannah Shabtian, gathered for a series of events to break down barriers and stereotypes and promote gender equality in the fields of science, technology, engineering, and mathematics, all while encouraging more female students to pursue careers in STEM.
