Dear Colleagues:
We are organizing a workshop on Astrobiology at Alife7.
The primary objective of this workshop is to
highlight some of the new areas of research that have emerged
form the new NASA Astrobiology initiative. We hope to have the
final list of presentations from individuals working in some of these
emerging areas of astrobiology soon. Since we also believe that there
is great potential for a more permanent interactions between
Astrobiology
and the A-life community, and hope to foster such interaction through
this workshop, we solicit a small number of shorter
presentations of work that might benefit (or has already benefited)
both communities.
Please send an abstract of your proposed presentation to:
stassi at groucho.arc.nasa.gov
If your submission is accepted, be prepared to provide us with
a short, camera-ready copy of your presentation.
A more complete description of the workshop has already been posted in
the Alife7 web-pages:
