This workshop will celebrate the career and research accomplishments of Lance Dixon, whose decisive impact has been felt across many areas of theoretical physics. The event will involve three days of talks from some of Lance's long-time collaborators, including:

Babis Anastasiou
Benjamin Basso
Zvi Bern
Ruth Britto
John Joseph Carrasco
Fernando Febres Cordero
James M. Drummond
Vittorio Del Duca
Paul Ginsparg
Jeffrey Harvey
David A. Kosower
Anthony Morales
Ian Moult
Maxim Perelstein
Frank Petriello
Radu Roiban
Gavin Salam
Anastasia Volovich

Lance himself will also give a colloquium on Friday afternoon. 

In addition to talks, there will be a dinner at 19:30 on Thursday evening at Amber Restaurant on the Royal Mile. (Space for the dinner is limited due to fire restrictions, so we apologize that only invited workshop participants will be able to attend.) Finally, we plan to organize a hike on the Saturday morning following the workshop, for those who are still around!
