The European Postgraduate Fluid Dynamics Conference 
(EPFDC) has been organized since 2007 and held initially 
every year and recently every other year with usually 
around 80 participants. The conference is organized and 
designed for PhD students. It is aimed in giving them 
opportunity to present and discuss their research in an 
international and young community, broadening their 
horizons and networking with other students from a wide 
area of fluid dynamics.

The conference includes inspiring plenary lectures by 
experienced and successful academics with varied research 
interests. They share both experience and perspectives 
within their research interests.

The conference also provides a friendly environment in 
which those new to speaking at conferences may present 
their work, and previous conferences have shown a very 
high standard of presented material. All participants are 
expected to give a short talk or bring a poster. Poster 
sessions and social events provide the opportunity for 
more informal feedback and a chance to network with other 
students as well as with plenary speakers.

The upcoming 8th EPFDC will be held in Warsaw, Poland on 
July 6-9, 2016 and will be a part of Warsaw Fluid 
Dynamics Week (3-9 July 2016). This event will be a 
unique opportunity to participate in both the 8th EPFDC 
and EuHIT School on Turbulence in one place during one 
week (organized by EuHIT, euhit.org). More information on 
the school will be provided soon.
