Welcome to the SAIDAN website !


SAIDAN is a Helmholtz Young Investigators Group dedicated to the research in Seismology and Fault Mechanics. SAIDAN is the acronym for “Seismic and AseismIc Deformation in the brittle crust: implications for Anthropogenic and Natural hazard”.

SAIDAN is formally embedded into the Helmholtz Centre Potsdam GFZ German Centre for Geosciences, particularly in the Section 4.2: Geomechanics and Scientific Drilling. The Principal Investigator (P.I.) of the project (myself) is Dr. Patricia Martínez-Garzón.
