Dear Colleagues, This is a Call for Participation for the 23rd Conference on the Mathematical Foundations of Programming Semantics. The meeting will take place on the campus of Tulane University in New Orleans, LA from April 11 through April 14. The meeting will include invited lectures by Stephen Brookes (CMU), Jane Hillston (Edinburgh), John Mitchell (Stanford), Gordon Plotkin (Edinburgh) and John Power (Edinburgh).
