Panel: 2002 Nobel Prizes

Each year, the Nobel Prizes recognize terrific intellectual and social achievements. In addition to the Nobel Peace Prize, achievements in Physics, Chemistry, Medicine, Literature, and Economics are recognized. Many people are curious about the prize winning work and are eager to know more than is often provided in the brief accounts in newspapers and the mass media. In this event, ISU faculty members will present a series of short talks that describe the prize-winning works: Prof. Jo Anne Powell-Coffman; Profs. Kerry Whisnant and Steve Kawaler; Profs. Amy Andreotti and R. S. Houk; Prof. Wallace Huffman; Dr. Barbara Pleasants; and Prof. James McCormick. The talks will be followed by a question and answer session and panel discussion. Steve Kawaler, professor of Physics and Astronomy, will moderate.
