Malcolm White is a Postdoctoral Associate studying the dynamic solid Earth in the EAPS department at MIT. Malcolm deploys high-performance algorithms to extract insights from microearthquakes pertaining to (1) mitigating natural seismic hazards; (2) harvesting geothermal energy; and (3) sequestering atmospheric CO2. Malcolm lives in Medford, MA, with his wife, Sara, and two children, Anastasia and Ezekiel.
Malcolm has a PhD in Geological Sciences (University of Southern California, 2021) and a BSc in Computational Geophysics (Carleton University, 2013). He worked at Scripps Institution of Oceanography (University of California San Diego) as a Seismic Analyst from 2013-2016.
