Welcome!
I am Chargée de recherche CNRS (equivalent to associate prof.) at the Institut des Sciences de la Terre (ISTerre) in Grenoble. I was previously a Postdoctoral Fellow at the California Institute of Technology, and completed my PhD at Géoazur.
My research aims at better understanding the deformation of the shallow parts of the Earth on multiple temporal and spatial scales, from the displacement induced a few seconds to days before, during and after an earthquake to the long-term interaction of fault networks.
You can find me in my office in the ISTerre building:
Office 316
OSUG-C (Maison des Géosciences)
1381, rue de la Piscine | 38610 Gières | France
You can also contact me by email:
thea.ragon (at) univ-grenoble-alpes.fr
I am always looking for students and postdocs. If you are interested in earthquakes, want to work with me or a member of the team, and visit Grenoble, contact me!
