We will be meeting with Jason Crawford who will update us on his latest work at https://rootsofprogress.org/, followed by a "fireside chat" and Q&A.

Jason is a friend of ACX, see his post "Who is Scott Alexander and what is he about?".

How to find us 
We will be in room 105 of Building 2, the building where the mathematics department is located. You will need a TIM ticket QR code visitor pass to get in. We will email everyone info on how to get the TIM ticket prior to the event.
