Tatsuki Tsujimori

Professor of Geological Sciences

Tohoku University

Tatsuki Tsujimori is a professor of geological sciences at Tohoku University. After serving for 9 years at the Center for Northeast Asian Studies (CNEAS) on the Kawauchi Campus, he transferred to the Earth Science Department of the Graduate School of Science on the Aobayama Campus on December 1, 2024. At the same time, he established a new research group called “KREATE (KR8).” His expertise includes petrology, geochemistry, and tectonic processes, with a focus on metamorphic rocks such as blueschists, eclogites, jadeitites, and serpentinites.

He earned his Ph.D. in 1999 from Kanazawa University and completed post-doctoral training at Okayama University of Science and Stanford University. He has held academic positions at Okayama University Misasa (2006.12–2015.9) and Tohoku University (2015.9–present). Elected as an MSA Fellow in 2013 and a GSA Fellow in 2014, he received the JAMS Award in 2021. He serves on the editorial boards of nine scientific journals.

Prof. Tsujimori’s research covers geological, geodynamic, and geochemical processes at convergent margins, addressing temporal and spatial scales from mineral equilibria to plate tectonics. He connects ancient high-pressure metamorphism with present-day geophysical observations, offering new insights into these processes.
