The Obermann Center's Wide Lens series aims to inspire and connect the University of Iowa community across the disciplines. For each Wide Lens event, researchers, scholars, and artists from across the university briefly present their work on a shared topic of interest PechaKucha–style. Then, we open the floor to questions and conviviality over hors d'oeuvres and drinks.

Presenters:

• Stephanie DiPietro, Sociology & Criminology: Only the Dead Have Seen the End of War: Life Course Legacies of Conflict

• Meenakshi Gigi Durham, School of Journalism and Mass Communication: Little Fires Everywhere: Feminist Scholarship as a Bridge to Conflict Resolution

• Andrew A. Forbes, Biology: How to Succeed When Predators Are Everywhere

• Johanna Kasimow, Theatre Arts: Staging Conflict

• Elizabeth Menninga, Political Science: Building Trust in the Shadow of War

• Allison Rowe, College of Education: Just Crushing: Civic Discourse Through Collaborative Destruction
