DIS2006 XIV International Workshop on Deep Inelastic Scattering

•Thank you very much to come to DIS2006.•This is the very important period for DIS physics.

• Many New Results from HERAII, Tevatron RunII, Spin Experiments and from many other exp’s.

More precise data: Close contact between theory and experimental groups is essential

• HERA will run until summer 2007.• LHC will start in 2007.• Several Future facilities are planned.

•We wish to have lively discussions in DIS2006 and enjoy your stay in Japan.
