In this talk we will present some work in progress generalising Lubin-Tate formal group laws to higher dimensions. There have been some other generalisations, but ours is different in that the ring over which the formal group law is defined changes as the dimension increases. We will state some conjectures about these formal group laws, including their relationship to the Drinfeld tower over the p-adic upper half plane, and provide supporting evidence for these conjectures.
