CTIO/ESO Workshop Held in La Serena (1Jun94)
(from CTIO, NOAO Newsletter No. 38, 1 June 1994)

The Third CTIO/ESO Workshop was held in La Serena 24-28 January 1994.
This year's workshop topic was "The Local Group: Comparative and Global
Properties."  The workshop featured approximately 70 astronomers from
North and South America, Europe, and Australia.  Session topics
included the interstellar medium, young stellar populations, old
stellar populations, and the dynamics of Local Group galaxies.  A final
session highlighted the knowledge gained from Local Group galaxies in
the context of interpreting observations of more distant galaxies.

The organizers would like to express their thanks to the participants
for making this an exciting and informative workshop.  We especially thank
the CTIO and ESO staff personnel for service above and beyond  the call
of duty in making this meeting a success.

We are now in the process of editing the proceedings, and hope to have
them out before the northern fall.

Andrew Layden, Chris Smith (CTIO), Jesper Storm
(ESO): co-chairs, Local Organizing Committee
