JLab is celebrating the contributions and achievements of its founding
director, Hermann Grunder, on the occasion of his 80th birthday. All
staff, on-site users and friends are invited to join in recognizing the
man who transformed the original concept for CEBAF from a modestly
designed, medium-energy accelerator into a world-leading, precision
superconducting machine capable of delivering an unparalleled nuclear
physics research program. The celebration will begin at 3:30 p.m., with
cake and light refreshments to follow, in the CEBAF Center atrium on
Tuesday, Oct. 25.</span><span
