Anastasios Sextos (<\/span>www.asextos.net<\/a><\/u><\/span>) is Professor of Earthquake Engineering at the University of Bristol and Director of the Laboratory of Earthquake Engineering at the National Technical University of Athens where he serves on a dual appointment. He is the Founding Director of the new UKCRIC National Facility in Soil\u2013Foundation\u2013Structure Interaction (SoFSI) in Bristol, where he also acted as the Head of the Earthquake and Geotechnical Engineering Research Group, the Founding Director of the MSc in Earthquake Engineering and Infrastructure Resilience, and a member of the UKCRIC Management Board. Between 2011 and 2026, he coordinated 40 internationally funded research grants including the GCRF-funded project on Seismic Resilience of Schools in Nepal, which delivered the world\u2019s first building on a low-cost PVC-based seismic isolation system, awarded by the Anti-Seismic Systems International Society (ASSiSi). He serves on the drafting committee of Structural Eurocodes and chairs Greece\u2019s National Pre-Earthquake Assessment Committee of Public Buildings. He is an Associate Editor for the ASCE Journal of Structural Engineering, Earthquake Spectra and Journal of Earthquake Engineering. He has been a Research Visitor at University California Berkeley (2007), a Fulbright Research Scholar at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign (2012) and a National High-end Foreign Expert in China (2016-2019). He is the recipient of 20 national and international awards for academic performance, teaching, and research excellence. Anastasios has authored or co-authored 115 journal papers (94% Q1)\u00a0 in the areas of experimental and computational earthquake engineering, dynamic soil-structure interaction, seismic resilience of critical energy and transportation networks, seismic design and assessment of bridges, community resilience, multiple-support excitation of extended structures, hybrid testing, machine learning and structural health monitoring.\u00a0<\/span><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
