The fifteenth annual Greater IPAC Science Symposium will be held on Thursday and Friday, April 23 and 24, 2015. The Science Symposium is a forum for all staff members of IPAC, the Spitzer Science Center (SSC), the NASA Herschel Science Center (NHSC) and the NASA Exoplanet Science Institute (NExScI) to present, discuss and learn about the diverse research that is being carried out at the Greater IPAC. The atmosphere is informal, and the location is designed to get us away from our offices and project work. All projects are being asked to cancel project meetings for the two days of the Symposium, and to give consideration of the meeting when assigning deadlines.
Format will be 10 minute oral talks. The talks are meant to be informal; some levity is encouraged! The goal of the talks is to expose the community to the research being done at IPAC. Wondering who all those post-docs and students are? Who is that person you keep seeing at the microwave? What do all these people around here actually do, anyway? Here's where you can find out!
An additional highlight will be the "State of IPAC" presentation by Executive Director George Helou. There will be catered goodies.
Dates: Thursday and Friday, April 23 and 24, 2015
Location: Cahill Hameetman Auditorium
