The Conference takes place from June 13 to 18, 2004, at the Colby-Sawyer College in New London, New Hampshire, USA. This Conference is devoted to the most recent progress in nuclear dynamics with emphasis on central nuclear reactions leading to fusion through multi-fragmentation to the production of quark-gluon plasma. A detailed program in the html format is enclosed. Additionally, the details will be updated at the sites of the GRC: http://www.grc.org/programs/2004/nuchem.htm and of the chair: http://www.nscl.msu.edu/~daniel/gor04/prog04l.htm A particular attention will be devoted, this year, to the role of flavors in nuclear dynamics, from the role of neutron-proton asymmetry in reactions, through flavors in collapsed stars, up to the features of jets from the reactions. Cross-fertilization between different domains of interests, as well as issues of importance for the different domains, will be stressed. As traditional for the GRC meetings, generous amounts of time have been allocated to discussions, including extended general discussion periods linked to individual session topics. Two poster sessions are organized to allow for various forms of participation in the meeting. The participation of young scientists, students and research associates, is highly encouraged. Funds for a partial support of the participation of those scientists in the meeting are available. If you would like to attend the Conference, please go on-line to: http://www.grc.org/programs/2004/nuchem.htm (application button is at the bottom of the page). Alternatively, you could use an application form that will appear in a February issue of Science and mail it to the GRC Organization. **All prospective attendees (including co-chairs and speakers) need to apply.** Please share this information with interested colleagues, and don't hesitate to contact me in case of questions. Sincerely, Pawel Danielewicz Chair, Gordon Conference on Nuclear Chemistry 2004 Email: danielewicz@nscl.msu.edu Phone: +1(517)333-6330
