"Introduction of conformal heat flow of harmonic maps"
In this talk I will present a new type of flow, called conformal heat flow of harmonic maps. In the first part I introduce known behavior of heat flow of harmonic map, including finite time bubbling. In the second part I introduce the conformal heat flow which is designed to delay such finite time singularities. Finally, I briefly show short time existence and future conjectures.

"Curvature of almost Hermitian manifolds"
Let $(M, g, J)$ be a Riemannian manifold with $g$-orthogonal almost complex structure $J$. The Riemann curvature tensor satisfies certain identities involving the torsion $\nabla J$. We will focus on the Kahler case (when $\nabla J = 0$) and if time permits we will make some remarks about the general case.
