InterPore2022
14th Annual Meeting
On behalf of the Executive Committee, we welcomed participants to the 14th International Conference on Porous Media and Annual Meeting of the International Society for Porous Media (InterPore). This multidisciplinary international event brought together colleagues from the global porous media community. The conference presentations featured new and exciting advances in porous media studies, spanning multiple disciplines and covering topics from fundamental science to applications, incorporating new experimental methods, machine learning, and advanced computational simulation and analysis.
For two years, InterPore Conferences had to be organized as fully online events. InterPore, along with its committees and members, successfully adapted to this challenge. While the COVID-19 pandemic was not yet fully under control, it became possible to organize the 2022 conference as a hybrid event. InterPore was deeply grateful to Khalifa University for hosting the 2022 InterPore Annual Conference. The efficient work of the local organizers, combined with the expertise gained by InterPore staff and participants in online event management, contributed to making this hybrid experience a great success.
The conference would not have been possible without the dedication of many individuals who worked tirelessly on short notice. The local organizers, under the leadership of Dr. Arif Sultan Al Hammadi and Dr. Mohamed Sassi, provided an outstanding and practical venue. The efforts of the moderators, minisymposia organizers, the Program Committee, the Organizing Committee, the Communication Committee, and InterPore’s executive staff were greatly appreciated.
Thank you to all who participated in InterPore2022. The conference provided numerous opportunities for learning, networking, and collaboration, both in person and online, ensuring a thriving and productive event.
