Every year InterPore honours up to two young researchers with the Procter & Gamble Student Poster Award. The award is given in recognition of outstanding student poster presentations at the annual InterPore conference. Each award consists of a prize of €500, InterPore rosette, and an award certificate.
A special committee evaluates all posters presented at the annual InterPore meeting by Bachelors, Masters, and Doctoral students. The poster must be presented by the student. All students can apply to be considered for the award when they submit an abstract for the InterPore conference. At InterPore2018, 14-17 May, New Orleans, the awardees were:

| Manuela Bastidas (Hasselt University, Belgium) for her poster entitled “Homogenization using HDG method applied to porous media problems”. Her supervisor is Professor Sorin Pop. | Amir Pahlavan (MIT, USA) for his poster entitled “Forced wetting transition and bubble pinch-off in a capillary tube”. His supervisor is Professor Ruben Juanes. |
The award was given at the closing ceremony. We congratulate Manuela and Amir and wish them continued success.
