Symposium Program
The two-day symposium (March 6-7, 2003) will consist of
invited talks and contributed posters,
covering a wide array of scientific topics. Our aim is not
only to pay tribute to Prof. Walker's past achievements
(considerable as they are), but to focus on the foundation
he has laid through the establishment of the McDonnell
Center for Space Sciences, the unique atmosphere of the "4th
floor" and the guidance and direction he has provided for
countless students, postdocs and other colleagues.
A small booklet will be
published with the symposium program, as well as stories and
photos about Prof. Walker and life in his lab. See the
program booklet page if you would
like to contribute something.
