Summary: The Oberwolfach conference ``Topologie'' is one of the few occasions where researchers from many different areas in algebraic and geometric topology are able to meet and exchange ideas. Accordingly, the program covered a wide range of new developments in such fields as classification of manifolds, isomorphism conjectures, geometric topology, and homotopy theory. More specifically, we discussed progress on problems such as the Farrell-Jones conjecture, higher dimensional analogues of Harer's homological stability of automorphism groups of manifolds and new algebraic concepts for equivariant spectra, to mention just a few subjects. One of the highlights was a series of four talks on new methods and results about the Farrell-Jones conjecture by Arthur Bartels and Wolfgang Lück.
