Abstract
This is the second of two talks about joint work with S. Galatius and O Randal-Williams on applications higher-algebraic structures to homological stability. In it we apply the general theory to the example of mapping class groups of surfaces. After reproving Harer's stability result, I will explain how to prove the novel phenomenon of secondary homological stability; there are maps comparing the relative homology groups of the stabilization map for different genus and there are isomorphisms in a range tending to infinity with the genus.
