The format of the Winter Institute consisted of a mixture of pedagogical invited talks and short contributed talks presenting the latest results from experiments and new developments in theory. As usual, the sessions were held in the mornings and evenings, leaving the afternoons free for recreation and enjoyment of the winter wonderland in the Rockies. The pedagogical talks focused on the recent results from RHIC with an outlook for observing the quark-gluon plasma. Recent data from B-factories with particular emphasis on CP violation was presented. The intriguing and interesting topic of neutrino physics was presented and its propects for the future were dealt with at length. Important experiments essential for our understanding of nuclear astrophysics were presented. Recent developments in cosmology were presented with its close connection to particle physics. Finally the possible physics that will be explored at future accelerators was considered at length. These pedagogical talks were complemented by a series of short contributed talks. We wish to express our sincere thanks to Lee Grimard, who carried out all the organizational duties with patience and skill. Many thanks go to Suzette Chan for putting together numerous diverse contributions into a nice volume. We thank David Maybury for his outstanding support with the logistics and transportation of participants to the Winter Institute. Finally, we wish to acknowledge support from the Canadian Institute of Theoretical Astrophysics, which assisted six students to attend the Winter Institute. We thank the University of Alberta Conference Fund, the Dean of Science, the Institute of Particle Physics and TRIUMF for generous financial support. The Department of Physics at the University of Alberta is thanked for all the infrastructure support. Organizing committee: A. Astbury B.A. Campbell F.C. Khanna M.G.
