will speak on

*On the unirationality of moduli spaces of curves *

Abstract: In this talk I will discuss about the unirationality of 
different moduli spaces of curves: the most famous M_g, the moduli space 
of smooth curves of genus g; M_g,n, the moduli space of n-pointed smooth 
curves; and the Hurwitz space H_{g,d}, parametrizing d-sheeted simply 
branched covers of the projective line by smooth curves of genus g. 
After introducing the main known results and open questions, I will 
report on some recent advances, based on works and ongoing projects in 
collaboration with F.-O. Schreyer and H. Keneshlou.
