Lee Corbett

Lee is the Facility Manager for the NSF/UVM Community Cosmogenic Facility; she oversees the daily operations of the lab, collaborates on visitors' projects, and trains visitors one-on-one in sample preparation methods. She has been in the Cosmogenic Nuclide Laboratory for over a decade, having completed both her MS (2011) and her PhD (2016) at UVM. Lee's background is as a geomorphologist and glacial geologist. She is primarily interested in how landscapes are shaped over time, although she is excited to collaborate with visitors on a wide range of projects involving cosmogenic nuclides.
