 Nuclear Physics and Dense Matter Equation of State Workshop We are excited to announce a new workshop aimed at fostering collaboration between researchers from CNRS's "Nuclei and Particles" laboratories in France and scientists at the Facility for Rare Isotope Beams (FRIB). This event is designed to create a direct dialogue and pave the way for new partnerships. Our goal is to bring together experts from both sides of the Atlantic to exchange ideas, share recent progress, and explore potential new collaborations in the field of Nuclear physics constraints for the dense matter equation of state. https://indico.frib.msu.edu/event/88/
