Invited Speakers


  • Dr Gaye Bayrakci, National Oceanography Centre

    Gaye is a marine seismologist at the National Oceanography Centre, specialising in the use of seismicand seismoacoustic methods to study the structure and evolution of the oceanic and continentallithosphere, cryosphere, and water column environments. Ocean-bottom seismology is the core of herresearch, including the deployment, processing, and interpretation of data from ocean-bottomseismometers (OBS) in a range of tectonic and environmental settings. Her work also includes ship-basedmultichannel seismic surveys and deployments with ROV-mounted seismic sources, supported bynumerical modelling of seismic and acoustic wave propagation using both full waveform and ray-basedapproaches. She is also expanding her expertise into electromagnetic methods to complement seismic imaging in complex geological settings.

  • Professor Ben Cox, University College London

    Ben Cox has worked on many aspects of photoacoustic and ultrasound tomography over the past twentyyears, in particular concerning numerical modelling and inverse problems. He is currently Professor of Biomedical Acoustics at University College London.

  • Dr Peter Huthwaite, Imperial College London

    Peter Huthwaite is a Reader at Imperial College London, developing imaging methods for Non-Destructive Testing and medicine, with key advances in breast ultrasound tomography and guided wavetomography. His work uncovered and overcame resolution limits critical for corrosion detection in industry. He developed Pogo software, a GPU-accelerated finite elementsolver for ultrasonic modelling, widely used in academia and industry. He has secured over £2.5M infunding and serves as an editor for JASA.
