We ask that Rice faculty and researchers submit a brief abstract (due by Thursday, January 24th, end of day) and prepare a poster about Smart Resilience projects and ideas. The poster (no larger than 4-foot by 4-foot) can showcase an existing research program, an emerging research idea, or a data source to which you have or can get access. The scope is deliberately wide. We want participants to come prepared to share ideas, network with colleagues, and explore opportunities for collaboration. As an example, the abstracts and posters could focus on one or more of the following Smart Resilience areas*:
- Hazard risk modeling
- Smart systems
- Mitigation and adaptation strategies
- Resilience characterization and quantification
- Population Growth
- Infrastructure
- Inequalities
- Climate Change
- Data management, access, security, and privacy
- Urban Planning and Development
- Knowledge discovery
- Urban health and environmental studies
* There is no limit, beyond your imagination, to the scope of the Meet Up. Please submit your abstract, as we want a broad and diverse representation of Smart Resilience ideas and research.
