On January 10th, 2016, Professor Oleg Kabov, a world renowne d expert in the field of interfacial heat and mass transfer and the founding Editor-in-Chief of the journal Interfacial Phenomena and Heat Transfer (IPHT), celebrated his 60th birthday. To mark the occasion, several of his colle agues conceived the idea of a special issue to celebrate his achievements and to provide an overview of some recent de velopments in the research areas pioneered and/or enhanced by Professor Kabov. We review his contributions to these areas here while also providing some biographical information. Oleg Kabov graduated from Tomsk Polytechnic Institute (now National Tomsk Polytechnic Research University) in 1978, and in the same year he moved to Novosibirsk to join th e laboratory of Professor S.S. Kutateladze at the Institute of Thermophysics. For many decades, this institu te has been one of the leading heat and mass transfer research centers in the world, in part due to the pioneering c o tributions of Kutateladze and his collaborators toward the understanding of physical mechanisms of boiling and con densation. Other important research areas developed at the Institute of Thermophysics include studies of waves o n liquid films, vortex flows, heat and mass transfer in disperse systems, phase transformation at cryogenic tempe ratur s, detonation, rarified gas dynamics, and synthesis of advanced materials. Professor Kabov defended his PhD the sis at the Institute of Thermophysics in 1987 under the direction of Professor I.I. Gogonin by working on proble ms of film condensation on arrays of finned tubes. The photograph in Fig. 1 (left) goes back to the early days at the K utateladze laboratory. The colleagues at the Institute of Thermophysics quickly recognized Oleg’s scientific potent ial. In 1987, at the age of just 31, he became the head of a new laboratory for heat transfer enhancement, see Fig. 1 (ri ght). Professor Vladimir E. Nakoryakov, an outstanding scientist who was the Director of the Institute of Thermophy sics between 1986 and 1997, proposed and strongly supported the establishment of this laboratory. In search of novel research directions for his laboratory, P rofessor Kabov turned his attention to studies of gravitydriven liquid films flowing over heated surfaces. This work re sulted in a remarkable discovery (Kabov, 1998). While
