- Seyed Majid Hassanizadeh (born 1952) is a professor of hydrogeology at Utrecht University, where he heads the Hydrogeology group at the Faculty of Geosciences. His research focuses on flow of fluids and transport of solutes and colloids in porous media, through theory development, experimental studies, and modeling work. In particular, he focuses on two-phase flow, reactive transport in variably-saturated porous media, transport of micro-organisms, and biodegradation. Formerly, he has been with Abadan Institute of Technology (Iran, 1979–1982), Project Manager with Yekom Consulting Engineers (Iran, 1982–1984), senior researcher with the National Institute of Public Health and Environment, RIVM (Bilthoven, The Netherlands, 1984–1995), Associate Professor (1995–2001) and later Professor (2001–2003) with the Faculty of Civil Engineering and Geosciences, Delft University of Technology. He has also held visiting faculty appointments at Notre Dame University, US, University of Bordeaux, France, the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology in Lausanne (EPFL), Switzerland, and Stuttgart University, Germany. He has contributed to more than 300 publications in journals, books, or as technical reports. Former Editor of Advances in Water Resources (1991–2001), Associate Editor of Vadose Zone Journal (2002–2008) and Water Resources Research (2004–2010), member of International Advisory Board of Journal of Hydrologic Engineering (since 2004), and on the editorial boards of Transport in Porous Media (since 1989), Advances in Water Resources (1988–2010), The Open Hydrology Journal (since 2007), Kuwait Journal of Science, Journal of Porous Media (since 2009), Special Topics & Reviews in Porous Media; An International Journal (since 2009), and Journal of Fluids (since 2013). He is active as session organizer or member of various committees for the Royal Netherlands Academy of Arts and Sciences, NWO, American Geophysical Union, Soil Science Society of America, European Geosciences Union, , and International Association of Hydrological Sciences. He has been leading and/or participating in a large number of projects funded by European Research Council, NWO, EU, TRIAS, SKB, TNO, BTS. He has supervised close to 100 graduate students and post-doctoral researchers; has (co-)organized more than 50 international conferences, workshops, and short courses; has been on the organizing or scientific committees of about 50 international conferences/workshops; has given invited lectures in more than 80 international meetings and short courses. He has received many prizes and honors, which are listed below. One of his most valuable services has been the co-founding of the (InterPore); in 2008. InterPore is a non-profit-making independent scientific organization with the aims of advancing and disseminating knowledge for the understanding, description, and modeling of natural and industrial porous media systems. It is now as vibrant and rapidly growing society with more than 2000 members. (en)
