Prof. Andreas Fichtner

Andreas Fichtner is Professor of Seismology & Wave Physics at ETH Zurich. He received his PhD in 2010 from LMU Munich for his work on Full Seismic Waveform Modelling and Inversion. After spending three years as postdoctoral researcher at Utrecht University, he joined ETH Zurich in 2013. He currently serves as associate editor for the Journal of Geophysical Research and the Bulletin of the Seismological Society of America.

His research interests include theoretical and computational seismology, inverse theory with focus on uncertainty quantification in large nonlinear problems, the translation of seismic imaging techniques to medical ultrasound and non-destructive testing, as well as various forms of fibre optic sensing in environments where conventional seismometer arrays are difficult to install or maintain.

Andreas Fichtner is the editor of one and (co-)author of four books on topics ranging from applied mathematics to general geophysics and inverse theory. He received the 2011 Keitii Aki Award from the American Geophysical Union and the inaugural Early Career Scientist Award from the International Union of Geodesy and Geophysics in 2015, as well as serval other recognitions.
