Welcome to the 8th International Bologna Conference on Magnetic Resonance in Porous Media, Bologna MRPM8, Ampere  Event organized under the auspices of Alma Mater Studiorum, University of Bologna. The Conference takes place at the prestigious Engineering Faculty of the University of Bologna, which has put its facilities at our disposal free of charge for the smooth and fruitful conduct of the meeting.

This conference series was founded at the University of Bologna, where the first meeting was held in 1990. MRPM2 was held in 1993 at the University of Kent at Canterbury, UK , MRPM3  in 1995 at the Université Catolique of Louvain-la-Neuve, Belgium, MRPM4 in 1997 in Trondheim, Norway. The conference returned to Bologna for MRPM5 in 2000. MRPM6 was organized in 2002 at the University of Ulm, Germany, and MRPM7 in Palaiseau, France. The Proceedings of all the previous MRPM Conferences have been published as Special Issues of Magnetic Resonance Imaging. Since the vitality and interest of these Conferences and the consideration that the community which the conference series serves had grown considerably over the years in such a way that it now extends to cover all continents of the globe, after MRPM7 the community has joined the Groupement Ampere as the MRPM Division, and the Conferences, which now are explicitly called the “Bologna MRPM Conferences,” are Ampere Events. The next Conference (Bologna MRPM9) is expected to be organized in 2008 by the Research Center of Schlumberger (Boston).

The conference is devoted to the progress in Magnetic Resonance in Porous Media and in our understanding of Porous Media themselves, and to stimulate the contact among people from various parts of Academia and Industry. Researchers in Physics, Chemistry, Engineering, Life Sciences, Mathematics, Computer Sciences, and in Industrial Applications will benefit from exchange of ideas, experiences, and new approaches. Topics will include innovative techniques to study structure, behavior of fluids, and their interactions in every kind of natural and artificial materials, including rocks, cements, biological tissues, foodstuffs, wood, particle packs, sediments, pharmaceuticals, zeolites, and bioconstructs. New data acquisition and processing techniques are also expected to be strong features.

The Giulio Cesare Borgia Prize for Young Researchers will be awarded at the end of the Conference. The Prize (three thousand EURO, courtesy of Department DICMA, U. Bologna, to which he belonged) has been established in memory of the contribution made by Giulio Cesare Borgia to the development of Magnetic Resonance in Porous Media and for the particular attention he always paid to the enthusiasm, passion, and courage of young people who undertook the difficult and adventurous path of scientific investigation in this fascinating area of research. The award will be presented to the emerging scientist (normally under the age of 35) who, based on a presentation to the community at the Conference, shows greatest promise for future scientific leadership.

            Contributions to the Conference are: Invited (25 minute + 5 minute discussion), Oral (15 minute + 5 minute discussion), Selected Poster (10 minute oral presentation without discussion + discussion at the Poster during Poster Sessions), and Poster presentation at the Poster Session. Posters have  numbers, to be found in the Scientific Programme. Each Poster should be put up on the easel with the corresponding Poster number, starting the afternoon of Sunday, 10 September. The Posters will be exhibited for the duration of the Conference

            The Organizing Committee gives thanks for the support given to the Conference by all of the sponsors and donors: Università di Bologna (I); Elsevier Inc. (New York, NY, USA); Dipartimento di Fisica (U. Bologna, I); Dipartimento DICMA (U. Bologna, I); Facoltà di Scienze (U. Bologna, I); Facoltà di Ingegneria (U.
