Professional biography

Siylkanova Akgenzhe Orishanovna has been working at the National Scientific Center for Seismological Observations and Research LLP of the Ministry of Emergency Situations of the Republic of Kazakhstan (until December 27, 2023, Institute of Seismology LLP) since 2007 after graduating from KazNTU named after K.I. Satpayev with Seismology degree. In 2009, she received a master's degree in Geology and Exploration of Mineral Deposits from KazNTU named after K.I. Satpayev. In January 2024, defended her doctoral dissertation there on the topic "Features of the geological structure and seismic regime of the Zhongar-North Tien Shan region", at Satbayev Unversity by receiving a PhD degree, which allowed Siylkanova A.O. to simultaneously train the next generation of seismologists - undergraduates and doctoral students at the Department of Geophysics and Seismology at KazNRTU named after K.I. Satpayev.

In addition to the two languages of State and interethnic communication, Siylkanova A.O. speaks fluent English (graduated from the Kazakh International Relationship and International Languages University named after Abylai Khan, degree in Two foreign languages (English/German). She has an international IELTS certificate (IELTS 7.0), which allows her to work in scientific contact with leading foreign scientists.

So, in 2019 Siylkanova A.O. completed an internship at University College London (London, England), where she got acquainted with and partially mastered the new software Coulomb 3.3, developed by seismologists from the USA and Japan, and designed to monitor the activity of tectonic faults using the Coulomb stress method. After her internship from England, she implemented this program at the National Research and Scientific Research Institute, conducted the first preliminary calculations to assess the activity of the Altyn-Emel tectonic fault, which became one of the sections of her PhD thesis.

She participates in the popularization of seismological knowledge for the population of Kazakhstan. In 2023, the popular science short movie "Manyzdy Maman" was released with her participation in the title role, available on the website (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ofCzRQKib-4&list=PLPLVF6XP2rHVSeQ3_UYvREqVOoztX7t-u&index=12 ).
