**********************************************************************

This workshop is intended to discuss hadron-physics projects
at J-PARC among theorists and experimentalists.
The workshop will bring together theory and experimental communities
to discuss the J-PARC projects, especially recent developments 
on J-PARC related studies. We welcome international participants.

***** Discussed topics *****

* Hadron physics at J-PARC
* Strangeness hadron and nuclear physics
* Exotic hadrons
* Hadron properties in nuclear medium
* Structure functions
* Charm physics
* Neutrino-nucleus interactions
* Neutron stars
* New ideas on J-PARC hadron project

***** Oral and poster presentations *****

The organizers have arranged invited talks. 
We have also contributed talks on related topics 
in hadron and nuclear physics at J-PARC. 
(See “Announcements” in the workshop website 
in which the current program is shown.) 
It is noted that we have no poster session.
