My Upcoming Speaking Engagements [Updated with cancellations]

My upcoming public speaking engagements from now through May - most of which are free and open to the public.

For readers who may be interested, here is a list of my upcoming speaking engagements for the next several months. All are free and open to the public, unless otherwise noted. I will update this post, as necessary.

NOTE: As of March 12, 2020 all speaking engagements on this list that will occur later than that date are officially cancelled, in most cases because the host organizations have called them off due to the coronavirus crisis. Some of these may be rescheduled to a later date. If so, I will eventually put up a post indicating when. The talks in Italy scheduled for May are, theoretically, still possible, as the organizers have not—so far—cancelled. But I think it is extraordinarily unlikely they will actually occur. UPDATE: The speaking engagements in Italy are also now cancelled. They may rescheduled for the fall.
