Title: Groups between dynamics and C*-algebras

Abstract: I will discuss the role of topological full groups in the interaction between topological dynamics and C*-algebras. Topological full groups provide examples of groups with important new properties but they can be quite difficult to compute (and to distinguish!). If time permits, I will sketch some new directions I find interesting.
