<p class="MsoNormal">We invite you to attend the
International Workshop on Nucleon and Resonance Structure
with Hard
Exclusive Processes. The 3-day workshop will focus on new
approaches to exploring the short-range structure of
baryons and
non-perturbative QCD phenomena such as chiral symmetry
breaking confinement
using hard exclusive electromagnetic processes. Particular
emphasis will be
placed on a unified description of processes in the
deep-exclusive regime
(generalized parton distributions (GPDs)) and the
resonance region (N*
physics). <span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><br>
</p>
<p class="MsoNormal">The workshop will bring together
experts in
perturbative QCD, phenomenology of electromagnetic
processes, and dynamical
models of hadron structure, to discuss the impact of
present and future
experiments (particularly with the JLab 12 GeV upgrade),
assess the reach of
present theoretical methods, identify directions for
further development, and
enable joint approaches to the study of GPDs and N*
physics. Topics include:<span></span></p>
