 So my name is Jacqueline Greckley-Curry, I am a student from Malta and I am currently studying a master's in geology at the University of Iceland. My main specialisation is in physical volcanology and geochemistry and I'm currently in my second year of studies so essentially I'm now currently working on my thesis which happens to be on an eruption in the Reykjanes peninsula and right now we have an eruption in the Reykjanes peninsula so it's awesome. I guess a very common question that arises is our ability to predict volcanic eruptions I guess because a lot of people seem to think that it is very easy to do that with all our technologies but as it showed here on Reykjanes we were aware that there was unrest but no one was thinking that it was going to happen last Friday and instead it actually did so I'm definitely excited. Not scared. A lot of people especially if they don't live on a volcanic area they tend to think that the worst you can get is the lava as a hazard but in reality that is usually never the case for example right now on the Reykjanes peninsula the main issue is the sulfuric gas flume and if you go really close to it you end up you know really affected by the toxic gases other times you have the open wipes so and you like if you're not aware of these that would be one major hazard that you're going to face. I mean yeah obviously you miss the interaction with other people and the networking it's a bit harder sometimes to be able to do that especially if you're just an early career scientist starting out but there's also good things which have come out of it for example the accessibility of lectures as well as conferences online so you know there's pros and cons to every situation. Yes I'm mostly looking forward to the magma chamber simulator course as well as the two sessions related to the volcano glacier interactions and also the magma sand and shallow processes involved in volcanic eruptions those I think are the ones I'm really looking forward to but anything with volcanoes in it it will go and will do for me. All the topics that there are in the program really touch upon everything so it's really hard to add on I think it's actually going to be kind of overwhelming being the first like being the first time like doing this because I saw the program and it is so full but I'm also very excited because it's going to be super interesting.
