This is an announcement for the paper "Dimension reduction in $L_p$, $0<p<2$" by Gideon Schechtman.

Abstract: Complementing a recent observation of Newman and Rabinovich for $p=1$ we observe here that for all $0<p<2$ any $k$ points in $L_p$ embeds with distortion $(1+\e)$ into $\ell_p^n$ where $n$ is linear in $k$ (and polynomial in $\e^{-1}$).
