Neil Sturchio

Dr. Sturchio is Professor and Chair of Geological Sciences at the University of Delaware. He is active in research on the development and application of stable and radioactive isotopic tracer methods as well as synchrotron x-ray scattering and spectroscopy techniques in hydrogeology and environmental geochemistry. His educational background includes a B.A. in Earth Sciences and a Ph.D. in Earth and Planetary Sciences. He was a member of the scientific staff at Argonne National Laboratory from 1983-2000, then moved to a tenured professorship at the University of Illinois at Chicago (UIC). He established the Environmental Isotope Geochemistry Laboratory at UIC in 2000. He moved with it to the University of Delaware (UD) in 2014.

After a long association with the University of Chicago and Argonne Labs performing original research in radiochemistry, Neil has become Chair of Geological Sciences at the University of Delaware. He continues to refine stable isotope measurements of natural waters and earth materials, as well as conducting on-going synchrotron experiments at the APS and Brookhaven labs.
