Biography: 

Professor Malomo is the director of struct-lab, a cutting-edge structural engineering research lab at McGill University working on earthquake engineering, old structures, climate change-adapted design, numerical and experimental simulations. Since 2021, he serves in the Board of Directors of the Canadian chapter of the International Council on Monuments and Sites (ICOMOS), as well as an expert member of the International Scientific Committee on the Analysis and Restoration of Structures of Architectural Heritage (ISCARSAH). His work has recently been awarded by The Masonry Society (TMS), Pacific Earthquake Engineering Research Center (PEER) and the International Association of Bridge and Structural Engineering (IABSE).
