I will be visiting Argentina from about 10 Jan to 10 Feb, primarily for
the purpose of climibing Aconcagua.  However, I am anticipating having
one or two weeks free after the climb, during which I hope to tour the
country a bit.  I would very much like to visit one or more universities
during that time, find out what research is going on, and make some
friends.  I don't have any contacts in Argentina however, so if you have
any suggestions for people to talk to, I would much appreciate it.  If
anyone in Argentina would be interested in helping arrange a visit to
a university, I would also much appreciate that! 

My scientific interests are fairly broad, I am currently doing research in 
quantum mechanical scattering from surfaces, computational solid mechanics, 
and constitutive modeling of solids.  I am also doing some work with the
use of symbolic algebra packages for automatic code generation and do
alot of work in supercomputing, both vector and parallel.  I would 
certainly be interested in meeting scientists working in related fields, 
but I would also be extremely interested in meeting and talking to scientists
working in other disciplines.  I am extremely curious about what research
is being carried out in Argentina and South America in general.
