This is the report on an Oberwolfach conference on graph theory, held 16-22 January 2005. There were three main components to the event: 5-minute presentations, lectures, and workshops. All participants were asked to give a 5-minute presentation of their interests on the first day, and subsequent days were divided into lectures and workshops. The latter ranged over many different topics, but the main three topics were: infinite graphs, topological methods and their use to prove theorems in graph theory, and Rota’s conjecture for matroids.
