Recent Progress in Homotopy Theory
A cooperative program on homotopy theory is being planned for the Spring semester of 2000 at the Johns Hopkins University, in conjunction with the Japan-U.S. Mathematical Institute (JAMI), which we have in our department.
The organizers are J.M. Boardman, D. Davis, J.-P. Meyer, J. Morava, G. Nishida, W.S. Wilson, and N. Yagita.
The following topological faculty and visitors will be in residence for (substantially) the whole Spring 2000 semester (late January to early May):
 | Martin Bendersky (Hunter College, CUNY), Jan 15-Apr 30 |

| Nobuaki Yagita (Ibaragi U), Mar 1-31 There could well be changes to this list, especially the dates. |
*Conference - March 17-26, 2000
The conference will begin on Friday afternoon, March 17. A typical conference day will consist of two plenary talks in the morning, and two talks in the afternoon; the afternoon talks will run in parallel sessions if needed. This format will allow plenty of time for interaction outside of the talks.
There will be a banquet on Saturday, March 25. At the banquet, the sixtieth birthdays of Peter Landweber and Stewart Priddy will be honored. Talks on their work are planned during the last part of the conference.
If you are interested in attending the conference, please take a few moments to pre-register. Hotel and Travel information is now available.
*Support for the conference is provided in part by the
National Science Foundation (INT-9815343), the Japan Society for the Promotion of Science
and the Johns Hopkins University.
