Excited to see our new paper on K isotopic anomalies in meteorites published today in @ScienceMagazine! This work was led by @NicoleNie5734 and included an excellent @CarnegiePlanets team of Da Wang, Rick Carlson, Conel Alexander, @AnatShahar, and me.

I’m grateful to have worked with a group of excellent scientists and, more importantly, wonderful people @CarnegiePlanets. Next stop @LosAlamosNatLab!

I have seen more seasons in 7 months in DC than I did in 5 years in AZ, and these blossoms are the cherry on top. #CherryBlossomDC

In addition to all the great science being presented at LPSC, I’m excited to share our new paper investigating the link between CM and CO chondrites using Ti, Cr, and O isotopes (with @DevinLSchrader @ScienceJem @meteoritesblog @Isotope_Dan @minwadhwa): https://t.co/rbElZN8rBy

@lavainspace I’m happy to share mine and answer any questions they have!

[Zack Torrano @zatorrano]

@smtikoo I received a FINESST grant in 2019 and I’d be happy to share my proposal with your student and answer any questions they might have!

Looks like @CarnegiePlanets has crossed the snow line.

@SarahACrowther @ABQTopes Thank you for the kind words @SarahACrowther, I’m glad you found this explanation clear and useful! Making it to an @ABQTopes game is still on my to-do list!

[Zack Torrano @zatorrano]

I study isotopes in meteorites. But what is an isotope? In this short excerpt from my recent PhD defense, I explain isotopes using apples and oranges!

[Zack Torrano @zatorrano]

Thank you @MetalAsu for always being a welcoming place to work whenever I visited from across the hall to use your instruments and lab space!

Dr. Zack Torrano (@zatorrano) successfully defended his PhD on June 30th, which was also Asteroid Day! His research uses the Cr and Ti isotopic compositions of meteorites and their components to study our early Solar System. @ASUResearch @ASUMeteorites @ICGL_WadhwaLab @minwadhwa

@lori_n_willhite @minwadhwa @lori_n_willhite Thank you!

[Zack Torrano @zatorrano]

Thank you, @minwadhwa! I’m honored to have had you as my advisor and thankful for all your guidance and support along this journey!

[Meena Wadhwa @minwadhwa]

Congratulations to Dr. @zatorrano! Proud to have mentored someone I know will be (and has already been) a great mentor to others. #PayItForward
