Workshop - Manifolds at Melbourne

The Department of Mathematics and Statistics at The University of
Melbourne is organising a workshop 'Manifolds at Melbourne' to be
held January 17-20, 2006, at AMSI in Melbourne, Australia.
This workshop will cover areas around 3-manifolds, including
geometric structures, flows and minimal surfaces, knot theory
and geometric group theory. A session covering some background
will be held on the afternoon of January 16.

keep down the volume of e-mail, only TWO announcements per conference
will be approved. The "subject" of your message should include the name
of the conference and the number (first or second) of the announcement,
