Making Food Good, Oct. 5-6, 2010

Gustavus Adolphus College

Nobel Conference 46 will consider a whole panoply of food issues—from
human health to the health of planetary ecosystems; from nutraceuticals
to culturally appropriate foods; from community gardening to fuel crops,
to genetic modification, and to food security.

The mission of the Nobel Conference is:

  1. to bring cutting-edge science issues to the attention of an audience
    of students and interested adults; and
  2. to engage the panelists and the audience in a discussion of
    the moral and societal impact of these issue

Students and faculty from across the Alliance participate in the conference by attending annually.

Information about speakers can be found on the conference website.
