Kamnitzer, P. Tingley, B. Webster and O. Yacobi, we've studied the representation theory of algebras called truncated shifted Yangians. Recently, we proved that this representation theory is governed by some algebras closely related to KLR algebras. In this talk, I'll describe this connection through a few simple examples. I'll also describe some applications to some (possibly) more familiar problems in representation theory, like the study of Gelfand-Tsetlin modules over U(gl(n)), and the calculation of characters of simple modules for Yangians.
