What is the dean of the college of cardinals? I have heard he has called the cardinals to a general assembly.

Angelo Cardinal Sodano, the current Dean, will preside over the conclave. This link gives a bit more info. I hope it’s reliable

He will not preside over the conclave because he is 85 years old and therefore will not be in the conclave. The longest-serving Cardinal Bishop under 80 is Cardinal Re, so he will preside over the conclave.Angelo Cardinal Sodano, the current Dean, will preside over the conclave.
