Tatsuki Tsujimori is a professor of geological sciences in the Department of Earth Science, Graduate School of Science, Tohoku University. He leads the KREATE (KR8) research group on the Aobayama Campus, which he established after moving from the Center for Northeast Asian Studies (CNEAS) in December 2024. His research interests span petrology, geochemistry, and tectonics, with a particular focus on high-pressure metamorphic rocks, including 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 several 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..
