Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolFred Massin is a seismologist and technical expert with 11 years of experience focused on Earthquake Early Warning (EEW) systems, currently working at the Service Sismologique Suisse (SED) / ETH Zurich. He designs, tests and maintains EEW algorithms and has particular expertise integrating independent detectors within a Bayesian framework to improve robustness and ground-motion prediction. Fred has a strong research background across North America and Europe—multiple postdocs and a PhD in Seismology & Volcanology—and applies that science to operational systems, including migrating EEW capabilities into SeisComP for Central American national networks. He combines hands-on algorithm development with field-aware error analysis from catalog compilation and focal-mechanism work, enabling practical, high-reliability warning prototypes funded by international development programs. An understated strength is translating academic methods into deployable software and collaborations that span research institutes and national seismic services.
