Biography
Prof. MAGDY M. MAHFOUZ Specialises in focused on developing genome-engineering technologies for basic biology and biotechnology. He is working as Professor in Department of Earth Science and Engineering, King Abdullah University of Science and Technology, Saudi Arabia.
Research Interest
"Professor Mai's research interests include the physics of earthquakes and the resulting complexity of earthquake phenomena, as seen, for instance, through earthquake-source imaging and dynamic rupture modeling. Mai's work extends to strong ground motion properties and near-source broadband wavefield simulations that include seismic wave scattering in heterogeneous media. He is also interested in earthquake engineering and seismic hazard analysis, and the application of innovative seismology tools in these fields. In this context, his work spans from fundamental earthquake physics to applied earthquake engineering."
