The 4th BR-Interpore is a new Brazilian forum for discussing on advances and disseminating knowledge for the understanding, description, and mathematical and modeling foundations of natural and industrial porous media systems in the lines of InterPore https://www.interpore.org/
We ran 4th BR-Interpore in full virtual conference mode, August 2-3 keeping in mind the worldwide time zones. We had 222 participants from 21 countries around the world, 166 from Brazil and 56 from abroad (South America, USA, Europe, Asia), from academia and industry (Professionals, Graduate Students, Post-Docs and Professors).

Fulfillment of the BRAZIL INTERPORE CHAPTER MISSION and supporting strategic goals were accomplished in the 4th Brazil Interpore Chapter Meeting through the action items:
1) Spread the Brazilian Chapter and InterPore to Academia and Industry in BRAZIL, but in close connection with the International Interpore community as well.
2) Continuous Improvement of a knowledge-sharing forum for exchanging ideas and expertise on natural and industrial porous media systems.
We hope to see you – physically or virtually – at 5th BR-Interpore next year in 2022!
