NASA Laboratory Astrophysics Workshop
Where: NASA-Ames Research Center, Moffett Field, CA
When: 01 - 03 May 2002

NASA's Office of Space Science (OSS) is sponsoring a workshop on Laboratory Astrophysics in order to discuss the current state of knowledge in this interdisciplinary field and to assess the needs in regards to NASA's space missions.

The workshop will feature invited talks by members of the scientific community representing data users. The invited speakers will provide a broad overview of the needs in the field. The workshop will also feature shorter talks and posters by data producers (NASA's Space Science programs grantees and others). Breakout sessions chaired by the Scientific Organizing Committee members will produce a report on the status of the Laboratory Astrophysics programs supported by NASA and whether these programs meet NASA's needs for the future.

The workshop will be hosted by NASA-Ames Research Center in Moffett Field, California. More information and details will soon follow.
