Academic Career
editCembrano Perasso graduated from the Universidad de Chile in 1990 with a bachelor degree in Geology.1 For his masters degree he went abroad to the United States and received his Master of Science in Geology, from Western Washington University, EEUU, in 1992.1 While he was studying for his masters degree, he was a research assistant for Professor Myrl Beck of the same institution.2 After, he went to Dalhousie University in Nova Scotia, Canada, and received a Ph.D. in Earth sciences in 1998.1 Since his Ph.D. he has served in various professorship positions at, in chronological order: Western Washington University,2 University of Chile,2 Universidad Católica del Norte (Chile),2 University College London,2 and Pontificia Universidad Católica de Chile.2 He currently occupies the position of a full professor in the Departamento de Ingeniería Estructural y Geotécnica at Pontificia Universidad Católica de Chile.1
Awards
editCembrano Perasso was awarded the Premio Juveni Excellenti (Excellent Youth Award) by the Sociedad Geológica de Chile in 1994. He was also given two Premio Docente Destacado (Outstanding Teacher Awards)s, one by Universidad Católica del Norte in 2005 and another by the Escuela de Ingeniería (School of Engineering) of Pontificia Universidad Católica de Chile.
Research
editCembrano Perasso conducts research in the fields of structural geology, seismology, and plate tectonics. His specialities include convergent margin plate boundaries similar to the type present in the Andes mountains, as well as the links between tectonics and volcanism, long- and short-term deformation history of active faults in the Chilean Andes, and deformation and fluid flow in fault systems[1].
He employs a variety of research methods, including but not limited to aerial and satellite imagery of faults[2], paleomagnetism[3], kinematic indicators in mylonites,[2] stereonet analysis[2], kinematic analysis using the Carey Galhardis Mercier software[2], field mapping[4], and incremental strain analysis[4].
