The Brazilian-German WE-Heraeus Seminar on “Hadron spectroscopy and the new unexpected resonances”, funded by the Wilhelm and Else Heraeus Foundation, will take place in the historic center of Paraty, a Unesco World Heritage Site located on the Costa Verde halfay between Rio de Janeiro and São Paulo. There is no participation fee and the Wilhelm and Else Heraeus-Foundation bears the cost of full-board accommodation for all participants. We encourage in particular younger physicists in this field to apply.
