We are passionate about empowering students to achieve their academic and personal goals. To help applicants to the Bridge to PhD program find potential mentors, we have created this page to highlight researchers who have expressed enthusiastic interest in mentoring a Bridge Scholar. Please note that this is just a starting point and we encourage you to explore the full list of researchers at Lamont-Doherty Earth Observatory to identify potential mentors.
Please contact us if you have questions or
would like assistance in exploring potential mentors at LDEO.
Biology and Paleo Environment (BPE) Division researchers study how animals, plants, and microbes influence, respond to, and record the environment in which they live.

Using advanced chemical and isotope analyses of air, water, biological remains, rocks, and meteorites, researchers in the Geochemistry Division seek to understand Earth’s environments by studying its history and the past and present processes that have governed these environments.
From research expeditions aboard the R/V Marcus G. Langseth to global seafloor mapping, to supporting the International Ocean Discovery Program (IODP) and offering ship-based experiences for students and more, Marine/Large Programs (MLP) marine geoscientists and experts are seafaring explorers committed to making high-quality data widely accessible to scientists and the public.
Lamont's exploration of the largely unknown terrain beneath the world's oceans began at the inception of the observatory more than 70 years ago. Today, members of the Marine & Polar Geophysics (MPG) Division remain explorers at heart, motivated by the drive to understand some of the most remote and dangerous reaches of our planet, from the deepest oceans to the polar ice sheets.
Scientists in the Ocean and Climate Physics (OCP) Division delve into the mysteries of Earth's climate in order to document its change and to build an understanding of its controlling forces.
Seismology, Geology and Tectonophysics Division researchers are at the forefront of theoretical and observational seismology, solid earth dynamics, rock mechanics, structural geology and tectonics, and sedimentary geology, and are making lasting contributions to the study of earthquakes, the structure of the Earth’s crust, mantle, and core, and the large-scale motions and deformation of the tectonic plates.
