This international scientific workshop, "Beamed and Unbeamed Gamma-rays from Galaxies", to take place from 2011 April 11-15 in Hotel Olos, Muonio, Finland, is aimed at reviewing and discussing the current knowledge and understanding of gamma-ray emission both from active and other types of galaxies (e.g., starburst galaxies) particularly in the light of results delivered recently from high-energy and very-high energy gamma-ray instruments instruments as well as multiwavelength studies. The workshop will consist of invited review talks, contributed talks, and "round table" discussions to exchange facts and ideas and facilitate new cooperations. It will also facilitate communication between theorists, phenomenologists and observers. Scientific scope and topics: * Blazars and jetted AGNs * Blazar and AGN Physics, Observations, Phenomenology * Black hole and central engine * Jets and environment of the central engine * Non-blazar AGNs * Non-AGN galaxies: star-forming and starburst galaxies, cosmic-ray generation * Observational tools: Variability, Correlations, Power Spectra Analysis, Periodicity * Multiwavelength aspects and approaches: Radio, optical, X-rays along with GeV/TeV Gamma-rays * Future observational opportunities * EBL status and progress The workshop will comprise a 4.5 day meeting in a very open and collaborative atmosphere with up to 10 slots/day for presentations. Presentations will be followed by ample time for questions and discussions. The venue in Lapland is an extraordinary location, promising a very intense workshop and offering a beautiful winterly scenery and possibilities for outdoor activities (like, e.g., a husky sledding or a snowmobile tour). It is well connected from Kittila airport and can be reached within 2 hours flight from Helsinki airport.
