Topology and geometry of the moduli space of curves
March 28 to April 1, 2005
AIM Research Conference Center, Palo Alto, CA

Organizers:
Ulrike Tillmann and Ravi Vakil

Workshop topics:
This workshop, sponsored by AIM and the NSF, will be devoted to 
bringing the communities of topologists and algebraic geometers
together. The aim is to have an active exchange of results, techniques
and ideas on the cohomology of the moduli spaces of curves.

Specific topics to be addressed include:

   1. Integral cohomology, stable and unstable.
   2. Tautological cohomology of the compactified moduli space.
   3. Applications to Gromov-Witten theory. 

Application deadline:
December 15, 2004
