The 19th International Conference on QCD in Extreme Conditions (XQCD 2023) will take place from 26 to 28 of July 2023 at the Department of Physics of the University of Coimbra, Portugal. XQCD is a series of international workshop-style conferences, held annually, which aims at covering recent advances in the theory and phenomenology of QCD under extreme conditions of temperature and/or baryon density, together with related topics.

The XCQD2023 PhD school will also be held at the University of Coimbra from July 23 to July 25 2023, right before the XQCD 2023 conference. The school will feature block lectures 3 x 90min on four research areas, which are central elements of the studies presented at the XQCD conference, providing an in-depth review of these fields for PhD students.
