This is an announcement for the paper "Coarse and uniform embeddings between Orlicz sequence spaces" by Michal Kraus. Abstract: We give an almost complete description of the coarse and uniform embeddability between Orlicz sequence spaces. We show that the embeddability between two Orlicz sequence spaces is in most cases determined only by the values of their upper Matuszewska-Orlicz indices.
