Bergen Conference on Modeling and Simulation of Coupled Subsurface Dynamics
To celebrate the conclusion of our VISTA-funded Center for Modeling of Coupled Subsurface Dynamics, a conference will be held on 13鈥�14 May 2025. This event is organized in collaboration with InterPore Norway and the second day of the conference will also serve as its annual meeting. It will cover themes such as coupled deformation, reactive transport, multiphase flow, and seismic wave propagation.

Kimberly-Clark lecture
The Kimberly-Clark Distinguished Lectureship Award is selected by InterPore each year, and for 2025, it was awarded to from the University of Stuttgart.
Rainer Helmig is Professor Emeritus of the Department of Hydromechanics and Modelling of Hydrosystems at the University of Stuttgart, Germany. He gained his doctoral degree from the University of Hannover in 1993 and a Habilitation degree from the University of Stuttgart in 1997. In 1995, he was awarded the renowned "Dresdner Grundwasserforschungspreis" for his doctoral thesis. From 1997 to 2000, he held a professorship at the Technical University of Braunschweig. He was co-founder and, from 2009 to 2011, President of "InterPore"; from 2007 to 2015, he was a spokesman for the International Research Training Group "NUPUS - Nonlinearities and upscaling in porous media," and from 2018 to 2023, he was a spokesman of the Collaborative Research Centre 1313 鈥淚nterface-Driven Multi-Field Processes in Porous Media: Flow, Transport, and Deformation.鈥� From 2007 to 2018, he was a member of the Executive Board of Directors of the Cluster of Excellence Simulation Technology at the University of Stuttgart.
