- John Baez and Julie Bergner will organize a Special Session on Homotopy Theory and Higher Algebraic Structures.
- Ken Goodearl, Dan Rogalski, and James Zhang will organize a Special Session on Interactions Between Algebraic Geometry and Noncommutative Algebra.
- Frauke Bleher, Birge Huisgen-Zimmerman, and Markus Schmidmeier will organize a Special Session on Representations of Finite Dimensional Algebras.
Please see the AMS web pages for the Sessions for more information.
