Title:     Beyond the No Core Shell Model: Extending the NCSM to Heavier Nuclei

Abstract: One of the main challenges for the NCSM is to investigate nuclei
with A>20, because of the huge configuration spaces required to obtain
converged results for these nuclei.  Consequently, a number of studies
are in progress to find new approaches for extending the NCSM to
heavier nuclei.  I will discuss three methods that we are currently
investigating: 1. the ab initio Shell Model with a core method, 
2. the Importance Truncation approach and 3. the NCSM in an EFT Framework.
