Applications are now being accepted for the METIS Summer School on Seismic Hazard Analysis, to be held at in Pavia (Italy) from 20th to 23rd June 2022.

The Global Earthquake Model Foundation (GEM; www.globalquakemodel.org) and the University School for Advanced Studies (IUSS; www.iusspavia.it) will host a summer school on probabilistic seismic hazard analysis. The school, organized under the auspices of the METIS project (EU Euratom research and training program 2014-2018, grant agreement n°94512 - metis-h2020.eu), will be held in person1 and will consist of a series of lectures and hands-on laboratories.

The goal of the school is to introduce the participants to the calculation of probabilistic seismic hazard and to recent methodologies developed in the framework of the METIS project. The topics offered will include an introduction to the main functionalities of the OpenQuake Engine (see www.globalquakemodel.org/openquake) and, GEM's tools for building components of a hazard input model, aftershock PSHA (Probabilistic Seismic Hazard Analysis), vector-valued PSHA and the conditional spectrum approach, and time-histories selection for engineering applications. The School targets PhD/Master students and other early-career researchers.

Participation to the school is free. Participants are expected to cover their travel and accommodation costs. The maximum number of participants is 20.

Applications to the summer school can be submitted by filling the form available at the following link: . The application deadline is April 15, 2022.*
