FRENA at SINP has been organizing SLENA with an aim to train and educate a generation of physicists who can design experiments with FRENA- a DAE funded national accelerator facility. Since FRENA is the first-of-its-kind accelerator in the country, it has great potential towards addressing long-standing nuclear astrophysics problems. SLENA will provide an opportunity to interact with internationally reputed researchers working in nuclear astrophysics problems for decades, which will be highly beneficial for students as well as scientists in India.
