Dear Colleagues,
This is an invitation for you to attend a one-day JPL Symposium to honor the memory of Steve Ostro. The Symposium will be held at JPL's Von Karman Auditorium on Thursday June 4, 2009 (8:30 - 5:00).
The ten invited oral presentations are listed below. Attendees are invited to bring poster presentations (30 x 40 inches), which will be displayed in Von Karman Auditorium all day. If there is sufficient interest, additional room for posters will be provided in a facility adjacent to the Auditorium.
There is no registration fee.
To facilitate access to JPL (through JPL security) and to make plans for the poster presentations, potential attendees are asked to contact either Don Yeomans (donald.k.yeomans@jpl.nasa.gov) or Lance Benner (Lance.Benner@jpl.nasa.gov; 818-354-7412) by May 15 with the following information:
Name
Affiliation
email address
U.S. citizen?
Will you bring a poster presentation?
If so, what is the title of your poster presentation?
We welcome posters from fields closely related to or inspired by Steve's work but we would also like to invite colleagues to bring posters on other scientific topics. We also welcome attendees to include pictures of Steve on the posters.
With kind regards,
Don Yeomans and Lance Benner, Co-Chairs
