As a public fact, Dieter Jungnickel is turning 60 on 20th March 2012. The Magdeburg conference will celebrate this event with invited talks covering some of his many research activities.

The conference is organised as part of the Reinhold-Baer-Kolloquium series.

Participation is free of charge, but if you wish to attend, we would be grateful if you could drop us a line at dj60@math.u-bordeaux1.fr so that we get an idea on the number of participants; in particular, please tell us with how many persons you intend to take part in the birthday dinner.
