<div style="margin: 0.8em 0px;" class="">The aim
of the workshop is to bring together the nuclear
and particle physics communities to discuss
experimental searches for exotic hadronic
resonances (tetra, penta, hexaquarks etc); the
latest data analysis methods used; the
theoretical interpretation of these states and
the potential for future searches at current
experimental facilities (CERN, JLab, Mainz). It
is hoped that this workshop will facilitate
information exchange between the different
communities involved and lead to new search
strategies for exotic states to be developed.</div>
<div style="margin: 0.8em 0px;" class=""><span
class="s1">The search for, and study of,
exotic hadrons has become a hot topic over
recent years as a wealth of new data has
arrived from current particle and nuclear
physics experiments. Many new states have been
observed and their properties measured,
with different degrees of precision. Often
similar states and search methods
are discussed separately in the particle and
nuclear physics communities, with
little interaction between them. The workshop
aims to improve communication between
the groups involved in order to facilitate the
development of new analysis methods and search
strategies as we attempt to understand the
spectrum of exotic hadrons.</span></div>
