The Earthquake Engineering Research Institute (EERI) is delighted to announce that the 2024 Annual Meeting will take place in Seattle, WA from April 9-12, 2024! The main meeting, including a technical program with plenary, special, and poster sessions, the EERI awards ceremony, and the Seismic Design Competition Shaking Day, will take place over two days, on Wednesday April 10th and Thursday April 11th.

The 2024AM Organizing Committee is excited to offer a second call for Poster Abstracts for the 2024AM. This second call for poster abstracts is designed to give those who submitted a session proposal that was not accepted or those who did not get a chance to submit during the first call an opportunity to present at the 2024AM.

Posters accepted from this second call for abstracts will be treated in the same way as those already accepted. They will be presented during the two evening poster sessions during the meeting on April 10 and 11.

We welcome abstracts on the following topic areas, and we are particularly interested in abstracts that approach a topic with a multidisciplinary lens and/or merge perspectives from academia and practice.

• Big Data, Machine Learning, and Artificial Intelligence
• Building Codes and Building Performance
• Cascadia Subduction Zone (particularly topics of broad national/international interest)
• Climate, Multi-hazard Modeling, and Earthquake Resilience
• Geotechnical Engineering
• Hurriquakes, Beastquakes, and Swiftquakes
• Lifelines
• Planning and Data
• Policy
• Post-earthquake emergency response/planning
• Risk Modeling and Insurance
• Seismology and Earth Science
• Social Science
• Socioeconomic impacts and Vulnerable Populations
• Structural Engineering
• Tsunamis

The deadline for all submissions is Thursday, February 15, 2024 at 11:59 PM Pacific Time. All abstract submissions are limited to 300 words or less. Submissions will be reviewed and considered by the 2024AM Organizing Committee. Those with selected poster abstracts will be notified in early March 2024. Selected poster presenters will be asked to prepare a 24” x 36” poster (portrait or landscape orientation). NO conference papers will be accepted or required. With permission, presentation materials will be posted on the 2024AM website and in EERI's Digital Library, but no formal proceedings will be produced.

Presenters will be responsible for their own travel expenses and meeting registration fees. Register by January 16, 2024 to receive the early bird rate: https://eeri.amsl.com/aro/meeting/2024am/register. For questions please contact EERI at annualmeeting@eeri.org.
