  1. The Joint Institute for Nuclear Astrophysics Michael Wiescher • JINA mission and goals • JINA growth and development • JINA science and accomplishments • JINA management and community • JINA education and outreach

  2. The JINA mission • JINA forms a community of experimentalists, theorists, and observers in nuclear astrophysics • Develops interdisciplinary research projects in close communication between participants • Advancing students & postdocs interaction and career through workshops, schools, and collaborations • Develops new research tools and techniques • Provides an international hub for new scientific information through traditional web content and social networking • Outreach for K-12 through school projects, summer camps and research participation • An NSF Physics Frontier Center PFC should generate: • Synergy & common forum for community • Forefront research program • Training & education for young scientists • New ideas & projects in the field • New collaboration & communication lines • Service to the scientific community • An efficient & innovative outreach program PFCs have no sunset rule, but require the full re-application process every 5 years!
