Brief Overview
*--------------------*
This BARYONS conference will be the latest in a series of successful 
conferences, which
started in 1970 at DukeUniversity, and takes place every three years. 
The scope of the
conference is to bring together theoretical and experimental experts on 
all areas of physics
relevant to baryon spectroscopy, nucleon structure, and related aspects 
of hadron dynamics.

The conference will highlight the physics of baryons and relatedsubjects 
in particle, nuclear
and astrophysics. The main issues to bediscussed are our understanding 
of the structure and
reactions ofbaryons from the fundamental theory of the strong 
interaction, Quantum
Chromodynamics (QCD). In particular, the highly non-perturbative 
phenomena of quark
confinement, mass generation and spontaneous breaking of chiral symmetry 
will be addressed.

Recent developments of new and forthcoming facilities in the world will 
also be showcased.
We strongly encourage the participation of young scientists, including 
students and postdocs.


*Main Topics Include:*
*-----------------------------*
* Spectroscopy of Light / Heavy Flavor Hadrons
Resonances, Exotic Hadrons
* Structure of Hadrons
Form Factors, Structure Functions, etc.
* Recent Approaches to Non-Perturbative QCD
AdS/CFT Correspondence, Lattice Gauge Theory, Effective Field Theories
*  Hadrons at Finite Density and Temperature
The QCD Vacuum, Chiral Symmetry, Hadron Properties, etc.
*  Electromagnetic and Weak Interactions
Photo- and electro-production of hadrons, P- and CP-violating processes 
in nucleons and nuclei
*  New Facilities and Instrumentation
