Tom Bultreys is an associate professor at Ghent University, Belgium. He investigates fluid flows in porous rocks during underground hydrogen and carbon dioxide storage and sustainable groundwater applications, developing new methods to image and model the pore-scale physics. Before joining Ghent University’s Centre for X-ray Tomography (UGCT) and Department of Geology, he worked as a postdoctoral researcher at Imperial College London. His work resulted in Interpore’s Porelab Award for Young Researchers 2019 and a Starting Grant of the European Research Council (ERC) in 2023.
