Asia Pacific Virtual Event

We are delighted invite Magdalene Members in Asia Pacific to a virtual event on Wednesday 24th March 2021 at 11.30 GMT / 7.30pm HKT, in lieu of our usual spring drinks party in Hong Kong which we are sadly unable to hold in person this year.

We hope Members will take this opportunity to join the Master, Sir Christopher Greenwood, the Senior Tutor, Dr Stuart Martin, and the Development Director, Corinne Lloyd, in a zoom meeting, where the Master will address alumni and give a College update. They will also be joined by Dr Emily So, Fellow and Director of Studies in Architecture, who will give a short talk on her research into earthquake modelling, after which attendees will be able to ask questions.

Dr So’s area of speciality is casualty estimation in earthquake loss modelling, and her research has led to improved understanding of the relationship between death and injury following earthquakes. Her work and the international contacts developed have been instrumental in establishing an international network on Disaster Casualties. She has actively engaged with earthquake‐affected communities in different parts of the world, focusing on applying her work towards making real-world improvements in seismic safety and is actively participating in the international debate on the way forward for earthquake risk mitigation.
