SCOPE

We are very happy to announce that the tenth installment of BLAST will 
take place at the University of Denver, where its inaugural meeting took 
place back in 2008! After a full decade of being hosted in various 
universities, BLAST returns to its birthplace. The BLAST Conference Series 
focuses on Boolean Algebras, Lattices, Algebraic Logic and Quantum Logic, 
Universal Algebra, Set Theory, and Set-theoretic and Point-free Topology. 
Its full history involves the following universities: University of Denver 
(2008), New Mexico State University (2009), University of Colorado, 
Boulder (2010), University of Kansas (2011), Chapman University (2013), 
New Mexico State University (2015), University of North Texas (2015), 
Vanderbilt University (2017). The central BLAST web page can be found 
here: http://math.colorado.edu/blast/. BLAST 2018 is supported by the 
National Science Foundation and the University of Denver. BLAST aims at 
bringing together researchers and students in the above-mentioned diverse 
areas and the scientific program will include three tutorials exposing the 
audience to various aspects of the these areas. There will also be seven 
invited lectures and contributed talks.
