DESCRIPTION:A conjecture of Holzegel\, Schmelzer and Warnick states that t
 here is a Ricci flow with surgery connecting the two Ricci flat metrics Ta
 ub-Bolt and Taub-NUT. We will present some recent progress towards proving
  this conjecture. This includes showing for the first time the existence o
 f a Ricci flow with surgery with local topology change $\\mathbb{CP}^2\\se
 tminus\\{ \\mathrm{pt}\\} \\rightarrow \\mathbb{R}^4$.
