<span style="font-family:"Verdana",sans-serif;color:black">This workshop will explore the options for new theoretical and experimental efforts towards resolving the puzzling lack of color transparency in protons as reported by a new A(e,e�p) experiment at
the recently upgraded Jefferson Lab. The objectives of the workshop are to stimulate new theoretical and experimental work towards understanding the origins of the apparent reaction dependence of this fundamental prediction of QCD, and/or the differences between
three-quark and quark-antiquark states.</span><span style="color:#777777"><o:p></o:p></span></p>

<span style="font-family:"Verdana",sans-serif;color:black">The connection of color transparency/coherence phenomenon with final state interactions in deep inelastic scattering, hadronization in the nuclear medium, heavy-ion collisions, and quantum entanglement
will be examined. The possibility for new experimental searches including at future facilities such as the EIC will also be discussed. The results of the workshop will be summarized in a report that can serve as a roadmap for the future developments and a
guide to areas for possible collaboration.</span><span style="color:#777777"><o:p></o:p></span></p>
