Excitements to come …

The Moore Library, CMS, Cambridge

My colleague and friend Thomas Forster has posted an intriguing message to the FOM list, and some readers here might be interested. He writes that he is “ in the process of assembling funding for a meeting to discuss and broadcast recent developments in NF. ” The evolving plan is to have some meetings next year under the auspices of the  Isaac Newton Institute (who might be able to fund board and lodging for at least some visitors). Thomas continues “At this stage I envisage making a start in late March … featuring introductory material, minicourses, tutorials, continuing into early April with presentations of recent results and discussions of their implications for foundational projects more generally.” My lips are sealed, for the moment, about what excitements have prompted this occasion. But watch this space. If you wish to be put on the mailing list for this event, please send an email to tf@dpmms.cam.ac.uk.

(The snap was taken yesterday, just a few yards from the Newton Institute building, looking across the bikes parked outside the Centre for Mathematical Sciences towards the Moore Library there.)
