August 3 - 7, 2015

This meeting is in the tradition of Midwest Algebra and Geometry Conferences. The topics of the conference are recent advances in Commutative Algebra and its intersection with Algebraic Geometry, with particular emphasis on characteristic p methods, multiplicity theory, multiplier ideals, free resolutions, local cohomology, and the homological conjectures.

The list of invited speakers is:

	Luchezar Avramov	University of Nebraska
	Christine Berkesch Zamaere	University of Minnesota
	Dale Cutkosky	University of Missouri
	Hailong Dao	University of Kansas
