Shaking Things Up: Earthquake Preparedness and Resiliency - Livestream

The West Coast is part of one of the most earthquake-prone regions in the world, and researchers at UC Berkeley and Berkeley Lab are developing tools and techniques that advance earthquake preparedness and resiliency. In this month’s Midday Science Cafe, we will hear from UC Berkeley’s Dr. Sarina Patel and learn about MyShake, an app developed by UC Berkeley's Seismology Lab that leverages the power of citizen science to collect seismic data using smartphones. We will also hear from Dr. Floriana Petrone, a visiting faculty scientist from Berkeley Lab who contributed to developing software to better understand how seismic activity affects the structural integrity of buildings and other critical infrastructure.
