Joined February 2009
I have exciting news: I accepted a position at Amherst College and will be moving there this fall! Emory has treated me well and we will miss Atlanta, but we are really looking forward to life in the Northeast.

If you are in your early career (2nd half of a PhD program or up to 5 years post-PhD) and interested in solving computational number theory problems using algebraic stacks and related geometric techniques, you should apply to our Math Research Community (MRC) in June 2023.

Registration for the 2022 AWS on Modular forms beyond GL_2 is open! swc.math.arizona.edu The deadline to apply for funding is November 24, 2021 and the deadline to register is December 8, 2021. Please spread the word!
Next year's AWS has been postponed to 2022, and in its place we are organizing an "Arizona Winter Semester" aimed at undergraduates and beginning graduate students. For further information about the school, please see our website: swc.math.arizona.edu/
If you will turn 18 before January 5, 2021, please register to vote. If you are a phd student or visiting faculty (or otherwise temporarily in Georgia), please consider registering to vote. If you know such folks, please encourage them to register. The deadline is Dec 7.

Actually, Georgia state law says that to be a resident one must have "no present intention of moving" and must not have entered the state "temporarily". Does this mean that phd students and temporary faculty can't register to vote here?
