Profile photo 
Upload your profile photo in Subscribe (opens in a new tab). Your profile photo in Pure is not linked to your public staff profile. Choose a clear, recent headshot where you are easily recognisable. Your image should be at least 340 by 395 pixels. 

Name 
To change your name or prefix title contact Ask HR (opens in new tab)  If you want to update an academic title you'll need to provide evidence e.g. a PhD certificate. The way your name is displayed is automatic and cannot be changed. You can also update your post-nominal letters in Subscribe (opens in a new tab).

Job title 
Raise a request through ServiceNow (opens in a new tab) to change your job title (40 characters maximum) unless you're on the ERE career pathway. If you're on the ERE path you can not change your main job title, but you can request other minor updates through Ask HR (opens in new tab). If you have more than one post only your main job title will display here, but you can add further posts or roles in other sections of your profile.

Research interests (for researchers only) 
Add up to 5 research interests. The first 3 will appear in your staff profile next to your name. The full list will appear on your research page. Keep these brief and focus on the keywords people may use when searching for your work. Use a different line for each one.

In Pure (opens in a new tab), select ‘Edit profile’. Under the heading 'Curriculum and research description', select 'Add profile information'. In the dropdown menu, select 'Research interests: use separate lines'.

Contact details 
Add or update your email address, telephone number and postal address in Subscribe (opens in a new tab). Use your University email address for your primary email. 

You can link to your Google Scholar, LinkedIn and Twitter accounts through Pure (opens in a new tab). Select ‘Edit profile’.  In the 'Links' section, use the 'Add link' button.

About

Dr Roz Coggon is Royal Society University Research Fellow. Her research focuses on the role of fluids in the formation and evolution of the ocean crust, with a particular emphasis on quantifying the thermally driven chemical exchanges between the aging ocean crust and the overlying oceans and their influence on global geochemical cycles.

 Ocean crust is produced along the submarine volcanic mid-ocean ridges repaving two-thirds of Earth's surface every 200 million years. However, it remains relatively unexplored, accessible only using submersibles or scientific ocean drilling. Such exploration revealed that seawater circulates through cracks in the cooling ocean crust, reacts with the rocks, transporting heat and chemicals to the oceans. At the ridges this occurs through spectacular hydrothermal hot springs but quantitatively more important reactions occur during lower-temperature fluid flow on the vast ridge flanks. Roz pioneered a method for reconstructing past ocean chemistry – itself an integrator of a range of Earth processes – from the fluid chemistry recorded by low-temperature hydrothermal minerals.

Roz is heavily involved in scientific ocean drilling, serving as co-lead editor of the 2050 Science Framework: Exploring Earth by Scientific Ocean Drilling that will guide scientists on the important research frontiers that scientific ocean drilling should pursue over the next three decades. The framework focuses on the many ways in which scientific ocean drilling will increase our understanding of the fundamental connections among Earth system components while addressing a range of natural and human-caused environmental challenges facing society.

Roz is also leading an International Ocean Discovery Program project (IODP Expeditions 390 & 393) that will drill an age transect (<61 Ma) of holes across the western flank of the Southern Mid-Atlantic ridge. These expeditions will investigate the history of hydrothermal interactions between the cooling ocean crust and the overlying ocean, the presence, diversity and activities of microbial communities that live deep beneath the seafloor, and recover sediment records of climate change and ocean circulation patterns in the Atlantic Ocean.

You can update this in Pure (opens in a new tab). Select ‘Edit profile’. Under the heading and then ‘Curriculum and research description’, select ‘Add profile information’. In the dropdown menu, select - ‘About’.

Write about yourself in the third person. Aim for 100 to 150 words covering the main points about who you are and what you currently do. Clear, simple language is best. You can include specialist or technical terms.

You’ll be able to add details about your research, publications, career and academic history to other sections of your staff profile.
