* to be confirmed

This conference will create a synergy between young scientists and students in the field and we will be able to join our efforts toward LHC and related studies and boost our contributions to this area of science significantly.

Young scientists, postdocs and PhD students from the Region (such as Turkey, Iran, Egypt, Pakistan, and others) and from elsewhere are encouraged to attend the conference. Limited funds are available for supporting some successful applicants from developing countries, to be selected by the organizers. Such financial support is available only to those who attend the entire conference. There is no registration fee for attending the Conference.

Application deadline for abstract submission is 15 July 2015.
