Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolBob Myhill is a Senior Lecturer in Earth Sciences at the University of Bristol with 11 years of academic and research experience spanning seismology, metamorphic petrology, and geodynamic and thermal modelling. He completed a PhD in Geophysics at Cambridge investigating deep earthquakes and subducting slab dynamics, then held Humboldt-funded postdoctoral research on mantle melting and rheology before progressing through research fellow and lecturing roles. His work bridges observational seismology and quantitative modelling to link earthquake mechanics with metamorphic and thermal processes in Earth systems. Based in Bristol, he combines teaching and supervision with active research leadership, including a UK Space Agency Aurora fellowship, and brings a rare cross-disciplinary perspective that connects petrology, kinematics and large-scale geodynamics.
