Local finite group theory has been an important topic, particularly via the Classification of Finite Simple Groups. Fusion systems have helped simplify and extend much of the theory in the last 20 years and are starting to link group theory, representation theory, and algebraic topology. I will give an overview of some key ideas, introduce some examples, and discuss some of my results in the areas.
