KUMUNU jr.
The first annual KUMUNU jr will be held at the University of Nebraska-Lincoln, April 21-22, 2012. Inspired by the success of the KUMUNU algebra conferences in the midwest, KUMUNU jr seeks to promote interaction of graduate students and post docs in the area of commutative algebra. This conference is a forum for students and post docs to share their ideas with others and to initiate collaboration. If you would like more information, please see the conference website or contact one of the organizers.

Syracuse: CA and Rep. Theory
There will be a weekend conference on “Interactions between Commutative Algebra and Representation Theory” in Syracuse, New York, 13–15 April 2012. This conference is partly in honor of Ragnar-Olaf Buchweitz’s upcoming 60th birthday. For more information see the web page for the conference.
The organizers expect to have some support (thanks to the NSF) for travel/lodging. Preference will be given to young mathematicians (recent PhDs and advanced graduate students). Please register at the web page.
