The aim of this small by-invitation-only workshop is to bring together experts from the fields of nuclear and particle physics, neutron star physics, and holography to communicate recent highlight results relevant for dense QCD matter and to create a lively forum for exchanging ideas in this rapidly evolving research area.

The scientific programme will commence at 9am on Monday 24 October and end by 3pm on Wednesday 26 October, with the talks taking place in the lecture hall E204 of the Physicum building of the Kumpula campus.

The invited speakers are asked to confirm their participation by filling in this online form by September 9.
