Role at ANSTO
Dr. Reka-H Fulop is an Earth Scientist specialising in cosmogenic nuclide geochronology. She completed her PhD at The University of Glasgow in Scotland, UK, and spent three years as a Postdoctoral Fellow at Universität zu Köln, Germany, before moving to Australia in 2013. She worked at ANSTO through several research positions at the University of Wollongong since 2015 where she established an in-situ cosmogenic C-14 laboratory. In 2020 she joined ANSTO as a Research Scientist in an ongoing position. Reka is involved in several projects spanning a range of disciplines, including studying Quaternary deglaciation histories – including those of Antarctic glaciers, quantifying sediment transit times and landscape denudation rates across the Australian continent, and dating the formation of rock-art shelters in the Kimberley region of Western Australia. Reka enjoys participating in remote fieldtrips and believes that these are an integral and important part in the development of an Earth Scientist.
