More than 80 SFB 1313 members and guests engaged in the SFB 1313 Status Seminar 2024, held from March 18 to 20, 2024, at the Tagungszentrum Gültstein / Herrenberg.

The SFB 1313 status seminar for 2024 convened from March 18 to 20 in Gültstein, Germany. With a turnout exceeding 80 members, associated members, and guests, the seminar served as a platform for presenting and discussing various projects centered around porous media topics.

Each project within project areas A, B, C, and D showcased their respective work, alongside the central projects INF, Z02 (PML), and Ö (Public Relations). Poster sessions provided opportunities for in-depth discussions and elaboration on additional inquiries.
