Did you know….Edinburgh?InterPore2023 will be in Edinburgh. Edinburgh has a lot of things to offer with respect to science, science history and porous media. This week: Robert Burns. On the 25th of January each year, Scotland pays tribute to Robert Burns, one of the most celebrated poets in the world. Born in Ayrshire in 1759, Robert Burns is Scotland’s national bard. Affectionately known as ‘the Ploughman Poet’, his verses stand as a fitting testament to Scotland’s proud literary history. A Burns supper is an occasion to celebrate Scotland’s cultural heritage. The centrepiece of any good Burns Supper menu is the iconic haggis (a savoury pudding of sheep’s heart, liver and lungs) that is traditionally piped in, i.e. brought in with a chorus of Scottish bagpipes, and then seranaded with a recital of Address to a Haggis. The supper is rounded up with a glass of single malt Scottish Whisky and a series of toasts, including an Address to the Lassies and Reply to the Laddies; a few steps of Ceilidh dance, a type of Gaelic folk dance, and finally everyone joins hands to sing Auld Lang Syne before going their separate ways. Satellite short coursesJoin us on 21 May 2023 before the InterPore Annual Conference in Edinburgh for a 3-hour short course on the topic of Geochemical Modeling in Porous Media given by Hang Deng, Peking University and Sergi Molins, LBNL. Please visit our InterPore2023 short courses page for details and to stay up to date as more courses are announced. InterPore2023 Career Development EventMany students and PhD candidates struggle with deciding which career path to follow after graduation, finding accessible options, and navigating in the era of the energy transition and green shift. Should I pursue an academic career or search for possibilities in industry or governmental agencies? What are the pros and cons of each career path? What does life after university feel like for young professionals? How can one find satisfying and secure employment? To help shed light on these big questions, the Students Affairs Committee (SAC) will organize its traditional “Career Development Event” during InterPore2023 in Edinburgh to hear from established professionals sharing their personal and expert views and experiences. In the Career Development Event, we will NOT hear about the experts’ latest research or industrial achievements, but instead about their different career paths and the critical choices they made along the way and how they see the future for the younger porous media scientists. Stay tuned for more updates from SAC Career Events! Important Dates
