History
Every semester, a group of GW topologists and their friends organize an international conference on Knot Theory and its Ramifications in or near Washington, DC. This tradition was started in the fall of 1995 by Jozef H. Przytycki and Yongwu Rong on the heels of a very successful first Knots in Poland conference organized in Warsaw by Joanna Kania-Bartoszynska, Jozef H. Przytycki and Pawel Traczyk.
