Greg Hjorth coming back to Melbourne

It’s a happy day for us logicians at Melbourne. Greg Hjorth is going to be joining the Department of Mathematics and Statistics later in the year, taking up a five-year, professorial fellowship. He’s a super-smart set theorist and model theorist, and I’m looking forward to having him around on campus.

Is he originally from Melbourne? I’m pretty sure he’s a graduate of the Berkeley logic program that I’m in, and he’s certainly one of the most prominent ones if he is. That will definitely be great for you guys to have him around!

Yup, Greg did his undergraduate degree in Melbourne: he did mathematics and some philosophy subjects here.
