Announcement
After a distinguished career at MIT, CfA, ASIAA, and EAO that spanned 45 years, Dr. Paul T. P. Ho formally retired from ASIAA in 2021. As a scientist, a mentor, and a leader in astronomy, Paul has been making countless contributions to the field of astrophysics, to the education of early-career scientists, to the building of new observing facilities, and to the development of astronomy in Asia. With a profound longing for discovering Nature, Paul has been inspiring colleagues and generations of young astronomers in their pursuit to push frontier science.
To celebrate Paul's career, we convene a conference to bring together world's experts to present forefront research in astronomy and to discuss future directions in a quest to probe the Universe at even higher resolutions in search of new phenomena.
The conference will be held in Taiwan from October 30 to November 3, 2023, with a main focus on but not limited to the following areas:
- Star and Planet Formation
- Black Holes and Galactic Center
- Nearby Galaxies and Distant Galaxies
- Development of Astronomy
The conference will include both invited and contributed talks. The first part of the conference will be held at the Great Roots Forestry Spa Resort outside of Taipei on October 30 and 31, followed by a second part at ASIAA from November 1 to November 3.
