Dear Colleagues,
This is the second announcement of the conference "Geometry, Topology and
Complexity of Manifolds, and applications to Biology" to be held May 20-22 (
Friday through Sunday), 2016 at UC Berkeley. This conference will be in
honor of the 60th birthday of Joel Hass, UC Davis.
Some financial support may be available for travel and local expenses, with
graduate students, recent Ph.D.s, and underrepresented groups especially
encouraged to apply. Preference for financial support will go to those
registered by April 1.
Confirmed speakers include:
Ian Agol, University of California, Berkeley.
Nina Amenta, University of California, Davis.
Dorothy Buck, Imperial College, England.
Mike Freedman, Microsoft Research.(*)
Patrice Koehl, Department of Computer Science Genome Center, University
of California, Davis.
Jeffrey Lagarias, University of Michigan, Ann Arbor.
Nati Linial, Hebrew University, Israel.
Frank Morgan, Williams College.
Hyam Rubinstein, University of Melbourne, Australia.
Peter Scott, University of Michigan, Ann Arbor.

This message was sent to you via the Geometry List, which announces conferences in geometry and closely related areas to over 1200 mathematicians worldwide.
At http://listserv.utk.edu/archives/geometry.html there are many functions available, including checking the archives since November 2005, changing your e-mail address or preferences, and joining/leaving the list. If you have problems that cannot be resolved at this website, send a message to [log in to unmask]
Before sending an announcement, please carefully read the following. Any announcements that are *not* about conferences (e.g. those about jobs, journals, books, etc.) will be rejected by the moderator without comment. To announce a geometry or closely related conference, send the announcement (including a conference web site if possible) to [log in to unmask] The moderator cannot edit your message; list members will receive the announcement as an e-mail from you EXACTLY as you submitted it. For example, if your submission starts with "Please post this on the geometry list" then your conference announcement will also begin with that statement. In order to keep down the volume of e-mail, only TWO announcements per conference will be approved by the moderator. The "subject" of your message should include the name of the conference and the number (first or second) of the announcement, e.g. Gauss Memorial Lectures in Geometry: Second Announcement. Please check that your announcement (especially the website) is correct. Corrections will be approved only in the most critical situations, e.g. if corrected information is not available on the website. If you send a submission from an e-mail address that is not subscribed to the geometry list then you will be sent an e-mail asking for confirmation. This feature is designed to thwart the hundreds of machine-generated spam that are sent to the list and would otherwise have to be manually blocked by the moderator.
The Geometry List is sponsored and maintained by the Mathematics Department, The University of Tennessee, Knoxville.
