Hana Jurikova
Hana Jurikova is a Senior Research Fellow and Leverhulme Early Career Fellow at the University of St Andrews, which she joined in 2020 after completing her PhD at GEOMAR Kiel in 2018, followed by a short postdoctoral position at the GFZ in Potsdam between 2018-2020. Hana’s research primarily focuses on advancing the understanding of past CO₂, climate, and seawater chemistry. Her work contributed to extending the boron isotope proxy to the rock record, enabling robust pH and CO₂ reconstructions for the past 500 million years of Earth's history. Hana’s early achievements have been recognized by the prestigious Outstanding Early Career Scientist Award from the EGU and Lyell Fund Award from the Geological Society of London.
