The current hot topic for me is the new efficient congruencing approach to Vinogradov's mean value theorem, which for the first time comes within a factor of two of delivering the best possible bounds for the number of variables required to deliver optimal estimates. You can read about this subject here and here.

Editorial work:
I'm on the Editorial Committee of MATHEMATICAL REVIEWS, run by the American Mathematical Society. If you have comments or questions, or wish to report mistakes/corrections in MathSciNet/MR reviews, please consider first whether it may be more appropriate to send email first directly to Mathematical Reviews at mathrev@ams.org. It is likely that this will bring a faster and more informed response to specific issues than emailing me on such issues. I am happy, of course, to bring general issues and suggestions to the attention of Mathematical Reviews.
I'm on the Editorial Board for COMPOSITIO MATHEMATICA. If you want to submit a paper to this journal, DO NOT send the manuscript directly to me, neither by paper mail nor electronically. See here for submission instructions.
I'm on the Editorial Board for the ONLINE JOURNAL OF ANALYTIC COMBINATORICS. If you want to submit a paper to this journal, DO NOT send the manuscript directly to me, neither by paper mail nor electronically. See here for submission instructions.
