In late November EES hosted Dr. Jamie Kirkpatrick for the Geological Association of Canada’s Hutchison Medalist Speaker Tour. The W.W. Hutchison Medal is named after Dr. William W. Hutchison in recognition of his many contributions to Canadian and international geoscience. The medal is awarded to a young individual for recent exceptional advances in Canadian earth science research.

Dr. Kirkpatrick gave an absolutely fascinating talk on his research in slow earthquake motions.
