I will describe the Zilber-Pink conjecture, a far-reaching descendent of the Mordell conjecture which includes the Mordell-Lang conjecture (Faltings's theorem) and the Andre-Oort conjecture as very special cases. I will describe its connections with Schanuel's conjecture, as well as functional versions of Schanuel's conjecture which play a key role in certain approaches to Zilber-Pink problems. This will involve joint work with Jacob Tsimerman and Philipp Habegger.
