Advancing Research Excellence for Through Intentional Mentorship for a Stronger Geoscience Workforce!

Statewide California Earthquake Center – SCEC and CRESCENT are co-facilitating an interactive training designed to help mentors develop skills for engaging in productive, culturally responsive, research mentoring relationships– relationships that optimize the success of both mentors and mentees. This training is built on the evidence-based Entering Mentoring curriculum from the Center for the Improvement of Mentored Experience in Research (CIMER).

This workshop is open to researchers at all career stages who are interested in strengthening their mentoring skills.

This three-day short course provides a hands-on introduction to machine learning techniques for seismic event analysis. Participants will learn to develop AI-aided earthquake catalogs through three key steps: event detection, association, and location with quality control. The course covers neural network architecture selection, model training, performance metrics, and application to continuous seismic data. The workshop will include a mix of presentations and hands-on tutorials. The final day will include a participant hack-a-thon in which students attempt to develop a machine learning based quality control workflow to apply to future generations of machine learning earthquake catalogs.
