Modern technology, such as digitization and multi-spectral imaging, is aiding papyrologists in all of these efforts.\n\nTexts on display are some of the highlights of the collection. They include a wonderful drawing of an elephant, a letter from a newly enlisted soldier to his mother, and, of course, some pages of the oldest manuscript with letters of St. Paul (one of the most famous texts of the collection).\n\nIn its 90-year history, the University of Michigan Papyrus Collection has trained more students and scholars in the field of papyrology than any other institution in North America. Founded by the visionary Francis W. Kelsey, the Papyrus Collection has been the training ground for papyrologists from around the world and home to many great resident scholars, such as Herbert and Louise Youtie, Ludwig Koenen, and Traianos Gagos, who died on April 26, 2010.\n\nPapyrology is the field of scholarship that deciphers and studies the texts written \u2013primarily on papyrus\u2013 by people living in the ancient Mediterranean world between 2,500 BCE and 1,000 CE. Most of these texts are found in Egypt where the climate is dry enough to preserve this fragile material. It is a highly specialized and technical field, requiring intensive training in language (Egyptian, ancient Greek, Latin, Arabic), history, and the unique set of skills necessary for reading original documents.\n\nThe exhibit is open during Audubon Room hours: Sun 1-7pm, Mon-Fri 8:30-7pm, Sat 10am-6pm.\n\nThis Exhibit is in Honor of Traianos Gagos (1960-2010).", "occurrence_notes":null, "guid":"3497-917787@events.umich.edu", "permalink":"http:\/\/events.umich.edu\/event\/3497", "building_id":"1000181", "building_name":"Hatcher Graduate Library", "campus_maps_id":"65", "room":"Audubon Room", "location_name":"Hatcher Graduate Library", "has_livestream":0, "cost":"", "tags":[], "website":"http:\/\/www.lib.umich.edu\/audubon-room\/events\/papyrus", "sponsors":[ { "group_name":"University Library", "group_id":"1186", "website":"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/UMichLibrary\/" } ], "image_url":"", "styled_images":{ "event_thumb":"", "event_large":"", "event_large_2x":"", "event_large_lightbox":"", "group_thumb":"", "group_thumb_square":"", "group_large":"", "group_large_lightbox":"", "event_large_crop":"", "event_list":"", "event_list_2x":"", "event_grid":"", "event_grid_2x":"", "event_feature_large":"", "event_feature_thumb":"" }, "occurrence_count":90, "first_occurrence":917718 } , "4366-1078865": { "datetime_modified":"20101201T151707", "datetime_start":"20101202T090000", "datetime_end":"20101202T180000", "has_end_time":1, "date_start":"2010-12-02", "date_end":"2010-12-02", "time_start":"09:00:00", "time_end":"18:00:00", "time_zone":"America\/Detroit", "event_title":"School of Information Book Sale", "occurrence_title":"", "combined_title":"School of Information Book Sale: Benefit for Alternative Spring Break", "event_subtitle":"Benefit for Alternative Spring Break", "event_type":"Community Service", "event_type_id":"4", "description":"A benefit book sale for the Alternative Spring Break program at the School of Information.

While 16S rRNA gene based classification generally corresponds to genomic and ecological differences, organisms grouped as one species often display both significant gene content variation as well as resource partitioning. In order to address the relationship between differences in gene content and sequence and ecological divergence in ecosystem context, I investigated links between genotype and ecology of two populations of Leptospirillum Group II bacteria in comprehensively characterized natural acidophilic biofilm communities. These populations share 99.7 percent 16S rRNA gene sequence identity and 95 percent average amino acid identity between their orthologs. One predominates during early colonization and the other typically proliferates in later successional stages, forming distinct tens to hundreds \u00b5m diameter patches. Absence of protein expression, measured via mass spectrometry-based community proteomics, of most population-specific gene content supports the argument that much of the laterally transferred gene pool found in closely related isolate genomes is of a transient, non-adaptive nature. Evolutionary signatures, and population-resolved expression patterns emphasize how sequence and expression variation of shared genes contributes to ecological divergence. As such, we highlight an interesting parallel to higher organisms, where evolution of gene expression has been suggested as an important factor in species differentiation. Ecological divergence between these two populations can be viewed as an example of r- vs. K-selection. The early colonizer proliferates optimally in the absence of competition from other organisms, thanks to adaptations that allow it to rapidly propagate in the AMD environment. Adaptations of the late colonizer allow its proliferation in conditions with high inter- and intra-specific competition for resources. Such distinct ecological strategies mediated by subtle genomic differences between closely related organisms, which are often found to co-exist in natural microbial systems, exemplify how fine-scale variation within ecological functional groups can have significant effects on community structure and functioning.", "occurrence_notes":null, "guid":"4347-1072063@events.umich.edu", "permalink":"http:\/\/events.umich.edu\/event\/4347", "building_id":"1000158", "building_name":"Chemistry Dow Lab", "campus_maps_id":"34", "room":"1210", "location_name":"Chemistry Dow Lab", "has_livestream":0, "cost":"", "tags":[], "website":"http:\/\/www.lsa.umich.edu\/eeb", "sponsors":[ { "group_name":"Ecology & Evolutionary Biology", "group_id":"1755", "website":"" } ], "image_url":"", "styled_images":{ "event_thumb":"", "event_large":"", "event_large_2x":"", "event_large_lightbox":"", "group_thumb":"", "group_thumb_square":"", "group_large":"", "group_large_lightbox":"", "event_large_crop":"", "event_list":"", "event_list_2x":"", "event_grid":"", "event_grid_2x":"", "event_feature_large":"", "event_feature_thumb":"" }, "occurrence_count":1, "first_occurrence":1072063 } , "3330-1000945": { "datetime_modified":"20101116T142622", "datetime_start":"20101202T160000", "datetime_end":"20101202T173000", "has_end_time":1, "date_start":"2010-12-02", "date_end":"2010-12-02", "time_start":"16:00:00", "time_end":"17:30:00", "time_zone":"America\/Detroit", "event_title":"LSA Ronald and Eileen Weiser Professorship of European and Eurasian Studies Inaugural Lecture", "occurrence_title":"", "combined_title":"LSA Ronald and Eileen Weiser Professorship of European and Eurasian Studies Inaugural Lecture: Conversations on Europe. \"The Sacralization of Politics in Europe and Beyond.\"", "event_subtitle":"Conversations on Europe. \"The Sacralization of Politics in Europe and Beyond.\"", "event_type":"Lecture \/ Discussion", "event_type_id":"13", "description":"Anna Grzymala-Busse, Professor of Political Science, WCEE\/WCED director, U-M.

These differences persist even if we take into account levels of popular religious belief and practice, so that equally religious societies can produce very different public policy outcomes.
