This program aims to review the exciting new developments in our knowledge of the nucleon-nucleon (N-N) interaction and its applications to the nuclear many-body system. Nuclear Physics is undergoing a renaissance with the advent of new theoretical methods and several new experimental facilities.This program is an effort to provide a common platform to the leading experts in the world for in-depth discussions and exchange of ideas.The primary topics of discussion will be different approaches to understand the N-N interaction, few-body problems in nuclear physics, nuclear physics with polarized beams and targets, no-core shell model, nuclear physics of neutron stars and electron scattering and photo-absorption reactions.The first four days of the program will be devoted to introductory and pedagogical lectures for Ph.D students followed by more advanced lectures and discussions in the remaining days.
