I will survey link concordance invariants coming from Khovanov homology, particularly those similar in spirit to Ozsváth-Stipsicz-Szabó's Upsilon, a 1-parameter family of invariants coming from knot Floer homology. This is related to my joint work with Linh Truong on annular link concordance invariants as well as ongoing work with Ross Akhmechet.

Joint work with Linh Truong (University of Michigan, USA) and Ross Akhmechet (University of Virginia, USA).
