SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Drug Discovery Lecture Series: \"Treating Zika Virus Infection by Targeting ER-associated Quality Control Pathway\"
DESCRIPTION:Zika virus (ZIKV) infection has recently attracted worldwide attention because it causes microcephaly in babies. Strategies to combat ZIKV infection require basic understanding of its infection mechanism. ZIKV belongs to the flavivirus family\, whose members include West Nile and Dengue viruses. As infection by flaviviruses co-opts the host endoplasmic reticulum (ER)-associated protein quality control machineries\, we hypothesize that ZIKV also hijacks these cellular machineries to promote infections. \n\nThis presentation will focus on ER-associated responses\, which represent druggable pathways under evaluation for the treatment of multiple human disorders. ER-associated responses could serve as starting points to find effective therapeutic agents to treat flavivirus infection.\n\nAbout the speaker:\nBilly Tsai\, Ph.D.\, Corydon Ford Collegiate Professor\, University Michigan\n\nBilly Tsai has been a member of the Cell and Developmental Biology faculty at the University of Michigan Medical School since 2003. He received his Bachelor of Science degree (Phi Beta Kappa\, magna cum laude) and Master of Science degree at the University of California at Los Angeles. He received his doctorate in molecular and cellular biology from Harvard University in 1999 and then completed a 3.5 year Damon-Runyon post-doctoral fellowship at Harvard Medical School. He currently serves as an associate editor of the Journal of Virology\, on the editorial boards of the Journal of Biological Chemistry and Viruses\, and as a permanent NIH study section member.\n \n9:00 a.m.\, May 13th*\nForum Hall\, Palmer Commons\n*Please join us for an introduction to the Center for Discovery of New Medicine's Request for Applications by Vincent Groppi at 9:00 a.m.\, followed by the presentation from Dr. Tsai at 9:30 a.m.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Albert Kahn: Under Construction
DESCRIPTION:In the past two decades there has been a tremendous swell of interest in Detroit architect Albert Kahn (1869–1942)\, arguably the most important architect of American industrialization. Albert Kahn: Under Construction focuses on the remarkable archive of photographs assembled by Albert Kahn Associates while building the powerhouses of American industry\, from the Highland Park Ford Plant to the Willow Run Bomber Plant. Shot by an array of professional photographers based mainly in Detroit\, these often striking documentary images were a novel strategy for conveying information about the daily progress of construction to busy managers at the main office. The exhibition foregrounds the photographic series as a way of illustrating change over time—showing buildings as they grew on site—and Kahn’s innovative solutions to the architectural challenges of his day.\n\n**Special hours Sundays: 12–5pm\, CLOSED Mondays

SUMMARY:Exhibition:In Focus: Jeanne Gang
DESCRIPTION:Widely acclaimed for her integrative approach to materials\, technology\, and ecological context\, Chicago-based architect Jeanne Gang was selected as a MacArthur Fellow in 2011. Shortly thereafter Gang proposed an ambitious restoration of the Chicago riverfront through a series of small but transformational projects. The WMS Boathouse\, designed by Gang and located north of downtown\, is one such project\, encompassing a field house with state-of-the art training facilities\, a boat storage building\, and a floating dock at the river’s edge. Completed in 2013\, the 22\,000-square-foot boathouse is the city’s premier rowing center\, serving a range of public rowing clubs\, many of whose amateur athletes come from the city’s underserved communities.\n\nThis installation showcases dynamic exterior and interior sketches of the complex—recently acquired by UMMA—depicting the distinctive rhythmic contours of the roof\, derived from studies of rowers in motion\, and the open\, angular\, and light-filled spaces within.\n\n**Special hours Sundays: 12–5pm\, CLOSED Mondays

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Siebren Versteeg: LIKE II (2016)
DESCRIPTION:In Siebren Versteeg’s LIKE II (2016)\, a computer painting program creates a composition using a continuously changing algorithm\, and then runs a periodic Google search to find a matching image online. Every sixty seconds\, the painting made by the computer is uploaded to Google’s “search by image” feature\, and images that most closely match the composition are then downloaded and displayed.\n\nThe notion of abstraction plays a central role in this work. Throughout modernity\, artists have sought inventive ways to free painting from its tradition as a representational medium. LIKE II inverts this ambition\, finding the reality hidden within pure abstraction. Because the work evolves based on whatever content is available online at any given moment\, the artist relinquishes a certain degree of creative control. Versteeg says\, “As the nature of the images presented by the work is random\, the artist assumes both all and no responsibility for their presence and content.”\n\n**Special hours Sundays: 12–5pm\, CLOSED Mondays

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Xu Weixin: Monumental Portraits
DESCRIPTION:The first major U.S. exhibition of the accomplished Chinese artist Xu Weixin (b. 1958)\, Xu Weixin: Monumental Portraits will focus on two of his acclaimed\, large-size portrait series: Miner Portraits and Chinese Historical Figures: 1966–1976. The subjects in Miner Portraits are coal miners working in harsh conditions in contemporary China. Chinese Historical Figures: 1966–1976 depicts people who lived—known and unknown\, and some of whom eventually perished—during the turbulent time of the Cultural Revolution. By portraying these individuals with monumentality and poignant realism\, Xu Weixin brings our focus to their lives and ordeals\, inviting an emotional connection. Reflecting the artist’s deep interest in the human condition\, these single-person portraits challenge our expectations and compel us to see beyond official narratives of historical events and social conditions. Xu Weixin is currently a professor of painting and the former executive dean of the School of Arts\, Renmin University\, Beijing.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Atomistic View into Microbial Functional Amyloids
DESCRIPTION:Abstract: Amyloids are structurally ordered protein aggregates involved in aggregation diseases as well as in physiological activities in humans and microbes. Structures of full-length amyloid proteins are rare and limited in resolution. Bacterial functional amyloids\, in particular\, have proceeded in a vacuum of structural knowledge. Our structural work on microbial amyloid peptides and spine segments show that the amyloid fold is far more diverse and rich in conformations than currently acknowledged\, and suggest that we are only at the dawn of understanding the mystery of the amyloid and its structure-function relationships.

SUMMARY:Performance:Garnet Rogers
DESCRIPTION:One of a pair of brothers who spearheaded a tremendous renaissance in Canadian songwriting in the 1970s and 1980s\, Garnet Rogers tells detailed stories of people from all walks of life and their small\, everyday victories. He can shift from seriousness to razor-sharp wit in a heartbeat\, he can turn songs into remarkable extended james\, and no two of his shows are the same. Nearly six and a half feet tall\, he has a striking stage presence\, and he can mix acoustic and electric textures in a dozen ways. Says Dirty Linen: \"He knows and captures what is real and lasting—the joyous\, contradictory poetry of living\,\" and Canada's Kitchener Record praises his \"visionary songs of haunting and mysterious power.\"
