Welcome!
I'm Susana Hoyos, a UC Chancellor's Postdoctoral Fellow at UCLA. I study the chemical diversity and magmatic evolution of rocky exoplanets using experimental techniques and geochemical modeling. I explore the bulk compositions of exoplanetary material accreted into polluted white dwarfs, aiming to understand how the interior composition of non-Earth-like rocky exoplanets impacts their atmospheres and potential habitability.
Away from the lab, you'll find me turning my living room into an urban jungle or exploring the outdoors.
