The Event
Vaclav Smil [Distinguished Professor, University of Manitoba]
My interdisciplinary research encompasses a broad area of environmental, energy, food, population, economic and public policy studies, ranging from quantifications and modeling of global biogeochemical cycles to long-range appraisals of energy and environmental options. I have been also applying these approaches to energy, food and environmental affairs of China.

Geballe Research Workshops
The Theodore and Frances Geballe Research Workshops bring together faculty and graduate students to explore new areas of inquiry, sparking innovation in a broad spectrum of established and emerging disciplines. Workshops meet frequently during the year, and help graduate students develop the skills needed to transition from their role as students to that of professional scholars interacting with a community of peers.
Milica Tomic
Milica Tomic, an International Visitor in 2010-11, is a Serbian artist working at the intersection of performance art forms, using video, film, photography, light, and sound installation. Her work centers on political violence, nationality and identity with an emphasis on the tensions between intimate experience and media-constructed images. During her residency, she will present a selected number of her works in which she used art in order to re-actualize past traumatic events.
