Our Team.

The Forming Worlds research group investigates the growth and evolution of terrestrial worlds to gain a more comprehensive understanding of how the origins of planets and life are interconnected. Pur team is part of the Kapteyn Astronomical Institute of the University of Groningen in the Netherlands, and our research is embedded in wider Netherlands-, EU-, and international research collaborations centered on rocky planetary evolution, the nature of extrasolar planets, and the origin and prevalence of life in the universe.
