The tale that emerges demonstrates the power of music and poetry to spark the social imagination and thus create a sense of shared community.\n\nInspired by the successful defense of Baltimore\, Maryland from British attack in September 1814\, lawyer and amateur poet Francis Scott Key penned his now famous lyric. Rather than extraordinary\, Key’s creative impulse was typical of early America’s broadside ballad tradition in which new words were written to fit well known tunes. The result\, however\, was far from everyday—Key could not have predicted that his song would survive the moment\, yet become his nation’s singular anthem.\n\nFollow the “The Star-Spangled Banner” from the moments leading up to September 14\, 1814 through the present day and explore the social history of our national song.\nMarch 2017 to September 2017 \n\nMonday - Friday. 8:45 am - 4:45 pm\nClosed all Federal holidays.

Discarded shoes\, tarps and handmade signs that mark the post-industrial landscape become part roadside memorial and part doomsday prophecy. These temporary sculptures - set against the backdrop of environmental decline - evoke a cautionary tale of hazmat crews and oil soaked shorelines. \n\nIf there is a place for both apathy and active resistance in the way forward to a better future\, Another Country carries the tension that’s in-between. Inspired by the visual resistance of liberation parties\, past and present\, it urges us to remember why we fight.\n\nShanna Merola is an artist\, activist\, and documentary photographer. Working for civil rights attorneys\, she photographs first amendment activity at protests and facilitates workshops on best practices during police encounters. Over the past five years she has been a human rights observer for social justice movements across the country - from the deeply embattled struggle over water rights in Detroit and Flint\, Michigan - to the frontlines of uprisings in Ferguson\, MO and Standing Rock\, ND. Her collages and constructed landscapes are informed by these rallies - from direct actions against fracking companies to the privatization of water both globally and locally. She is currently working on a collaborative production of Know Your Rights Theatre\, inspired by the politically radical puppet troupes of the 1960’s.\n\nMerola received an MFA in Photography from Cranbrook Academy of Art and a BFA in Photo and Film from Virginia Commonwealth University. She lives and works in Detroit\, Michigan.

He demonstrated that even small increases in multipotent ALDHbrightCD133+ cancer stem-like cells (CSC) significantly increase chemotherapy resistance and tumor initiation capacity. ALDH1A family members (ALDH1A1\, 1A2\, and 1A3) have been implicated as the primary enzymes identifying CSC and have been strongly linked with chemotherapy resistance. Given the expression of ALDH1A family members in CSC and their role in chemotherapy resistance\, he hypothesized they could be important therapeutic targets.\n\nDr. Buckanovich developed a panel of novel ALDH inhibitors (ALDHi) and identified a DEAB analog 673540 (673A) which inhibits all three ALDH1A1 enzymes (IC50 ~220nM). Pan-ALDH1A inhibition\, induced necroptotic cell death specifically in ALDHbright and CD133+ ovarian CSC. 673A induced necroptosis was driven by the induction of the mitochondrial uncoupling proteins\, UCP1 and UCP3\, and reduction in OXPHOS capacity. Necroptosis was caspase and RIP1 independent\, but is associated with MLKL translocation to membrane\, and DRP1 activation and translocation to mitochondria. 673A therapy was highly synergistic with chemotherapy\, reducing tumor initiation capacity\, and resulting in a 60% tumor cure rate in multiple tumor models in-vivo.\n\nALDHi are highly active in experimental models of ovarian cancer. As ALDHi induce metabolic necroptosis\, ALDHi are active in apoptosis resistant ovarian cancer cell lines. These studies support the development of ALDHi as novel therapeutics for ovarian cancer.

Instead\, she taps into the energy of community and its humanness—restless\, frenetic\, din\, a choir\, extending beyond the confines of walls. \n\nSnelling’s representations are neither judgmental nor opportunistic. They unaffectedly and objectively offer a multidimensional sketch of a place in time\, how we occupy space. \n\nHer signature piece \"One Thousand Shacks\" (included in this exhibition along with new work created during her her residency here) pushes up against the challenges of economic inequalities\, racial biases\, and imposed class divisions that often limit the options available to so many people. Concurrently\, the installation embraces our everyday existence expressed through Snelling’s exuberant palette\, bold graphics\, video and neon. \n\nConceptually\, Snelling’s stacking method first creates an exalted “big picture” with a myriad of colors\, image\, text\, sound and light. The counterpoint in scale soon immerses the viewer into each small world. With this shift\, the onlooker becomes the active participant\, the occupant in situ\, adding the trappings of their own experiences to each tableau. It is this shift that forces the viewer into a new way of seeing from varying perspectives.\n\nOn the one hand\, the artist’s sculptures allude to our desire for refuge\, a private domain that allows us to be ourselves. On the other\, the overall composition reaffirms it is imperative that we co-exist with one another respectfully\, forge relationships\, understanding our marked differences. It is diversity—the unique and often disparate combination of things\, the cacophony of it all\, that activates communities and public space.\n\nSnelling’s constructions literally build a way out\, one on top of another\, charged with the undercurrent of the way we live. They emphasize our universal longing to find a place called home\, and be accepted\, built on the foundation of one and of many. \n–Amanda Krugliak\, Arts Curator\, Institute for the Humanities\n\nAbout Tracey Snelling:\nThrough the use of sculpture\, photography\, video\, and large-scale installation\, Tracey Snelling gives her impression of a place\, its people and their experience. Often\, the cinematic image stands in for real life as it plays out behind windows in the buildings\, sometimes creating a sense of mystery\, other times stressing the mundane. Snelling’s work derives from voyeurism\, film noir\, and geographical and architectural location. Within this idea of location\, themes develop that transport observation into the realm of storytelling\, with reality and sociological study being the focus. Snelling had exhibited in international galleries\, museums and institutions\, including the The Royal Museum of Fine Arts\, Belgium\; Palazzo Reale\, Milan\; Museum of Arts and Design\, New York\; Kunstmuseen Krefeld Germany\; El Museo de Arte de Banco de la Republica\, Bogota\; the Stenersen Museet\, Oslo\, and the Sundance Film Festival. Her short films have screened at the San Francisco International Film Festival\, the Thessaloniki International Film Festival\, Circuito Off in Venice\, Italy\, and the Arquiteturas Film Festival Lisboa in Portugal. She also received a 2015 Joan Mitchell Painters and Sculptors Grant. Snelling lives and works in Oakland\, California and Berlin\, Germany.

The symposium asks: In a time when humans have been fundamentally displaced from their presumed place of privilege\, philosophically as well as experientially\, should the disciplines of architecture and landscape architecture consider displacing themselves as well\, in order to establish new affiliations and avail new ways to approach contemporary questions of design in relation to the environment?\nBy bringing designers and scholars from these fields together the symposium and exhibition will highlight projects and ideas that are engaged with these issues from a variety of perspectives\, ranging from scale and experience to questions of matter. Participants will present research and work that use tactics of mediation to understand\, imagine\, interrupt\, and invent artifacts that exist at the large spatial and slow temporal scale of the Anthropocene.\nAmbiguous Territory will present design ideas and proposals from architects\, artists\, and landscape architects whose work challenges their disciplinary boundaries and long-held anthropocentric orientation and redefines the relationship between built and natural environments in an era of ecological anxiety.\nChairs:       \nKathy Velikov\, Associate Professor at the University of Michigan and principal of RVTR\nCathryn Dwyre\, Visiting Associate Professor at Pratt institute School of Architecture and partner at pneumastudio\nChris Perry\, Associate Professor at Rensselaer Architecture and partner at pneumastudio\nDavid Salomon\, Assistant Professor of Art History at Ithaca College.\nKeynotes:\nLiam Young\, urbanist\, designer and futurist\; founder of the futures think tank Tomorrows Thoughts Today (tomorrowsthoughtstoday.com)\; the ‘Unknown Fields Division’ (unknownfieldsdivision.com) at the Architectural Association in London\, and the ‘Fiction and Entertainment’ program at SciArc\nDavid Gissen\, author\, historian\, and Professor of Architecture and Visual and Critical Studies at the California College of the Arts and co-director of the Experimental History Project (http://davidgissen.org/)\nFor a full list of speakers and bios\, please visit the Ambiguous Territory symposium web page. \nAmbiguous Territory Symposium Schedule\nAll events in Taubman College Commons unless otherwise noted\nThursday October 5th\n5:00pm\nAmbiguous Territory Exhibition Reception\n(Taubman College Gallery)\n6:00pm\nKeynote Lecture: Liam Young\n(Art + Architecture Auditorium)\n \nFriday October 6th (all events occuring in The Commons)\n9:00am\nCoffee\n9:30am\nWelcome: Dean Jonathan Massey\nIntroductory Remarks: Associate Dean of Research and Creative Practice Geoffrey Thün\nSymposium Introduction: Kathy Velikov\n10:00am\nAtmospheric Mediations Panel\nIntroduction: Kathy Velikov\nSpeaker 1: Christopher Hight\nSpeaker 2: Lydia Kallipoliti\nSpeaker 3: Sean Lally\nRespondent: Meredith Miller\nRoundtable Discussion\n12:00pm\nLunch Break (lunch not provided)\n1:00pm\nBiologic Mediations Panel\nIntroduction: David Salomon\nSpeaker 1: Jennifer Peeples\nSpeaker 2: Linsdey french\nSpeaker 3: Ricardo de Ostos\nRespondent: Ellie Abrons\nRoundtable Discussion\n3:00pm\nCoffee Break\n3:30pm\nGeologic Mediations Panel\nIntroduction: Cathryn Dwyre and Chris Perry\nSpeaker 1: Alessandra Ponte\nSpeaker 2: Bradley Cantrell\nSpeaker 3: Rania Ghosn and El Hadi Jazairy\nRespondent: Mark Lindquist\nRoundtable Discussion\n5:30pm\nBreak\n6:00pm\nKeynote Lecture: David Gissen\nAmbiguous Territory Exhibition \nSeptember 27th – October 18th 2017\nUniversity of Michigan Taubman College Gallery\nDecember 2018 – January 2019\nPratt Manhattan Gallery\, New York UID:44929-10012446@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/44929 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Architecture,Exhibition,symposium LOCATION:Art and Architecture Building CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20170320T100705 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20170324T100000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20170324T190000 SUMMARY:Exhibition:22nd Annual Exhibition of Art by Michigan Prisoners DESCRIPTION:The Prison Creative Arts Project is proud to announce the dates for the upcoming 22nd Annual Exhibition of Art by Michigan Prisoners.

Reuther Library Woodcock Conference Room\nWalter P. Reuther Library at Wayne State University\n5401 Cass Ave\, Detroit\, MI 48202\n\nBorn and raised in Chicago by Mexican-American parents\, Nancy De Los Santos is an accomplished filmmaker and proud “Chicana from Chicago” who has dedicated her life and career to rewriting and redefining the image of Latina/os in the mainstream media. Among her most celebrated works are as Co-Writer and Co-Producer of The Bronze Screen: 100 Years of the Latin Image in Hollywood Cinema\, with Susan Racho and Alberto Dominguez\, and as Associate Producer on the feature film Selena.\n\nIn Chicana Fotos\, an exhibit of evocative photographs taken in the 1970s\, we meet a very different Nancy: a woman armed with a camera\, capturing historic events in the struggles for social justice of the time. Nancy’s photographs of Chicano Movement marches and rallies\, farmworker mobilizations in Chicago and Texas\, and Latina organizing in the Midwest and internationally offer a priceless documentary view of Latina/o politics in the 1970s. Her more intimate pictures of everyday Latina/o life capture what it was like to live through a period of radical social transformation. The exhibit includes rare photographs of UFW organizing activities in Chicago\, the Texas Farmworker Pilgrimage of 1977\, and the first ever International Women’s Year Conference in Mexico City in 1975. These images are supplemented by never before exhibited documents from the Walter P. Reuther UFW Collection.\n\nChicana Fotos was curated by University of Michigan professor Maria Cotera (with assistance from Pau Nava) and designed by students and faculty of the UM Stamps School of Art & Design. Stamps School faculty Hannah Smotrich and Katie Rubin co-taught the collaborative\, interdisciplinary Exhibition Design class with students Ian Crowley\, Rachel Dawson\, Emilie Farrugia\, Kelsi Franzino\, Andrew Han\, Jack Hyland\, Maggie Lemak\, Megan Lewin-Smith\, Katie Mongoven\, Olivia Moore\, Pau Nava\, and Sarah Wolf.\n\nChicana Fotos is a collaboration between the El Museo del Norte\, the Chicana por mi Raza Digital Archive\, the Stamps School of Art & Design and the Walter P. Reuther Library at Wayne State University.\n\nThe Walter P. Reuther Library of Labor and Urban Affairs at Wayne State University is the largest labor archive in North America. In addition to internationally significant collections on the history of the North American labor movement\, the Reuther Library holds the official records of Wayne State University\, as well as extensive records documenting urban affairs\, civic life\, civil rights\, ethnic and religious organizations\, and community development across Southeast Michigan.\n\nChicana Fotos was made possible through the generous financial support of the University of Michigan’s Third Century Initiative and the Stamps School of Art & Design. Gallery talk sponsored by the Center for Latina/o and Latin American Studies\, Wayne State University\, and the University of Michigan’s Third Century Initiative.

The Student Senate passed a resolution urging the U.S. government to lift the embargo on selling arms to Spain. Students formed an aid committee\, held rallies\, and raised funds to send an ambulance to Spain.

Since they officially opened in 1919 and 1929\, respectively\, the Union and League have been destinations for generations of Wolverines yet few know the rich history of the buildings’ origins or about the architects who brought them both to life: brothers and U-M alums Irving K. and Allen Pond.\n\nThe exhibition\, organized in celebration of the University of Michigan’s bicentennial in 2017\, illuminates the architecture and bustling student life of these iconic buildings using original drawings\, renderings\, photographs\, color studies\, and even dance cards from the Bentley Historical Library\, which serves as the University of Michigan archives. These fascinating documents reveal how the buildings were conceived\, constructed\, and first occupied by students and alumni. Guest curated by Nancy Bartlett of the Bentley Historical Library\, the exhibition reveals how the Ponds meticulously conceived and constructed the two clubs—one for men\, one for women—by weaving ideas about gender and society into the very fabric of the buildings themselves.\n\nLead support for this exhibition is provided by the Herbert W. and Susan L. Johe Endowment.

Designed by her grandfather\, Detroit architect Albert Kahn\, for the Ford Motor Company\, Willow Run was an exemplar of American defense manufacturing because of its efficient mass-production of B-24 Liberators during World War II.\n\nFor this exhibition\, Ruben overlaid interior views of the now-dormant factory with imagined glimpses into her body’s interior landscape. The resulting compositions seem to breathe energy and light into the stagnant and cavernous spaces of Willow Run and suggest a longing for a productive existence undeterred by mortality for both Willow Run and the artist. Her grandfather’s role in the history of the site underscores Ruben’s personal connection.\n\nThe exhibition presents Ruben’s photographs of Willow Run in UMMA’s Photography Gallery and an original film—co-created by Ruben and video artist Seth Bernstein and featuring an original score by award-winning composer Stephen Hartke—in the Museum’s Forum.\n\nLead support for Ernestine Ruben at Willow Run: Mobilizing Memory is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost and the Herbert W. and Susan L.

They were part of what historians characterize as a watershed in African American History-the Great Migration. From 1910 to 1930\, hundreds of thousands of Blacks headed North\, leaving the South because of economic hardship\, poor educational opportunities\, and enticed by the lure of better jobs in northern industries and more freedom. Cites in the industrial Northeast and Midwest experienced astounding increases in their Black populations\, but few more so that Detroit\, its institutions and its cultures\, took shape and developed. The problems encountered by the migrants in the form of discrimination and racial animosity were problems with which the city would grapple throughout the decades to follow.\n\nThis exhibit focused on the two major concerns of the migrants\, housing and jobs\, and on the attempts made by various organizations in adjusting to life in Detroit. It is primarily compiled from the holding s of the University of Michigan’s Bentley Historical Library\, particularly the rich collection of the Detroit Urban League. It is also drawn from the Collections of the Detroit Public Library\, the Walter Reuther Collection of the Detroit Public Library\, the Walter Reuther Collection of Labor History and Urban Affairs (Wayne State University)\, the Collections of the Henry Ford Museum and Greenfield Village\, the Detroit News\, and tge Second Baptist Church of Detroit\, Michigan. The exhibit was prepared by Christine Weideman and Karen Jania\, staff members of the Bentley Historical Library.\n\n*From the poem\, “Northboun’” by Lucy Ariel Williams\, printed in Opportunity “: a Journal of Negro Life\, June 1926. The journal was a publication of the National Urban League.

The low-resolution LEDs create a tension between representation and abstraction\, provoking viewers to interpret visual information on their own. In the three-channel video It’s My Island Laitinen builds his own island in the Baltic Sea by dragging two hundred sand bags into the water over a period of three months. The work explores ideas of nationality\, citizenship\, and identity as the artist creates his own single-citizen micro-nation. Lemercier’s computer-generated print Landforms uses patterns of black dots and projected light to create the illusion of three-dimensionality and movement when seen from a distance. The effects are more realistic than a still image\, but still unsettlingly artificial. Silva’s Render Garden explores the digitized landscape\, including remix and glitch aesthetics\, through software that endlessly generates new plant combinations.\n\nThroughout the next year UMMA will present a series of exhibitions drawn from the Borusan Contemporary Art Collection in Istanbul. The Borusan’s thirty-year-old collection includes significant works across a variety of genres\, and since 2011 it has focused on media arts. The works exhibited here address formal concerns such as abstraction and color\, and conceptual topics such as identity or ecological issues\; many represent traditional categories such as portraiture and landscape that find new resonance when explored through the strategies of dynamic technology.\nLead support for this exhibition is provided by the Susan and Richard Gutow Fund\,\nthe Herbert W. and Susan L. Johe Endowment\, and the University of Michigan Institute for the Humanities and Penny W. Stamps School of Art and Design.

For Tibetan Buddhists\, books are a divine presence in which the Buddha lives and reveals himself\, and they are venerated and handled with the utmost respect. The exhibition features 33 book covers dating from the eleventh to the eighteenth century that represent the glorious iconographic array and non-figural decoration typical of these sacred items. The majority of covers in the exhibition are Tibetan Buddhist\, but the exhibition also includes a rare Bon-religion cover and two covers from Mongolia\, as well as an important pair of covers produced circa 1411 for the Chinese Ming emperor Yongle. Protecting Wisdom presents a stunning visual display that illuminates a virtually unknown type of art\, one that will charm and intrigue both those familiar and unfamiliar with Tibetan art.

This two-part exhibition (Part I: Figuration followed by Part II: Abstraction on view July 1– October 29) presents works collected by a diverse group of alumni that represent the breadth of the University and over seventy years of graduating classes. The works themselves are equally diverse\, ranging from ancient sculptures to contemporary multimedia works. Part I: Figuration features works by Henri Matisse\, Elizabeth Louise Vigée Le Brun\, Mark Tansey\, and Mickalene Thomas\, among others\, and allows visitors to explore the variety of artistic responses and purposes encompassed by the term “figuration”. It also offers an unprecedented opportunity to view art that may have never been publicly displayed otherwise—and most certainly\, not all together. For visitors\, and especially for future Michigan alumni\, Victors for Art illuminates the shared passion for art fostered by the Michigan experience.\n\nThis exhibition was organized by Joseph Rosa\, Guest Curator\, in collaboration with Laura De Becker\, Helmut & Candis Stern Associate Curator of African Art\, Jennifer Friess\, Assistant Curator of Photography\, Lehti Mairike Keelman\, Assistant Curator of Western Art\, and Natsu Oyobe\, Curator of Asian Art.\n\nLead support for Victors for the Arts: Michigan's Alumni Collectors is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost\, the University of Michigan Health System\, the University of Michigan Office of the President\, the Michigan Council for Arts and Cultural Affairs and the National Endowment for the Arts\, and the University of Michigan Bicentennial Office.

This versatility of legged robots\, however\, brings challenges such as obtaining stable walking and running gaits. A type of walking gait\, which is the focus of this talk\, is a periodic one\, which can be associated with a periodic orbit of the dynamic model that represents the legged robot. The common method for obtaining such periodic orbits is conducting a numerical search for fixed points of a Poincaré map. However\, as the number of degrees of freedom of the system grows\, such numerical search becomes computationally expensive because in each search trial the dynamic equations need to be integrated. Moreover\, the numerical search for periodic orbits is in general sensitive to model errors. I will show that we can overcome these issues by using the �Symmetry Method for Limit Cycle Walking�\, which relaxes the need to search for periodic orbits\, and at the same time\, gives rise to limit cycles that are robust to model errors. Mathematically\, the symmetry method is described in the context of Symmetric Hybrid Systems. I will show that legged robots\, due to the symmetries that they possess\, are symmetric hybrid systems and hence\, have an infinite number (indeed\, a continuum) of periodic orbits that can be identified easily. I will present the experimental results of the symmetry method on the humanoid robot COMAN at the Biorobotics laboratory of EPFL.\n Speaker(s): Hamed Razavi (ETH) UID:32876-4631774@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/32876 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Mathematics LOCATION:East Hall - 1324 CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20170321T113058 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20170324T113000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20170324T130000 SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:SEGREGATED SPACES DESCRIPTION:The Initiative for Inclusive Design invites you to join us for our presentation on segregated spaces.

DESCRIPTION:What does it mean to see? How do historians rely on the visual to interpret the past? Is the visual record misleading? These questions serve as a launching off point for this workshop\, which considers the relationship between sight and historical interpretation\, between visual materials and historical research. In an ocularcentric world were visual practices are privileged over other sensory modes\, historians regularly search for meaning through the visual —photographs\, manuscripts\, letters—in the archives. Drawing on ways of seeing and researching across global contexts\, our panelists explore the possibilities and pitfalls of interpreting the past through visual representations.\n\nPanelists include: \nSaquib Usman (PhD student\, Anthropology\, University of Michigan) \nTara Weinberg (PhD student\, History\, University of Michigan) \nXiaoyue Li (PhD student\, History\, University of Michigan) \nOsagie K.

These neurons express the critically important enzyme Glucose­6­Phosphatase (green)\, and a subset of them also express NPY\, a neuropeptide implicated in feeding regulation\, fat metabolism\, and numerous other processes. Neural gluconeogenesis regulates glucose and glycogen levels in flies that experience starvation\, revealing an novel mechanism of metabolic regulation of energy carriers.\n\nHost: Monica Dus UID:33580-4757508@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/33580 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Biology,Research,Science LOCATION:Chemistry Dow Lab - 1640 CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20170317T123830 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20170324T123000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20170324T133000 SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:#EHour: Ayush Agarwal | Facebook DESCRIPTION:Ayush Agarwal is a proud alum\, having graduated U-M in ‘06 with a BSE in Computer Science Engineering.

This thesis is concerned with extending the theory to the setting of GLk-equivariant modules and sheaves on Grassmannians Gr(k\, Cn). Algebraically\, we study modules over a polynomial ring in kn variables\, thought of as the entries of a k X n matrix. The goal is to characterize equivariant Betti tables of such modules and\, dually\, cohomology tables of sheaves on Gr(k\, Cn).\nWe give equivariant analogues of two important features of the ordinary theory: the Herzog-Kuhl equations and the pairing between Betti and cohomology tables. As a necessary step and fundamental base case\, we consider resolutions and certain more general complexes for the case of square matrices. \nOur statements specialize to those of ordinary Boij-Soderberg theory when k = 1. Our proof of the equivariant pairing gives a new proof in the graded setting: it relies on finding perfect matchings on certain graphs associated to Betti tables.

Their behavior places them at risk for a number of significant educational\, social\, and legal difficulties and their behavior can lead to serious consequences to the victims of their antisocial and aggressive acts. The current presentation will focus on research charting the various developmental pathways that can lead to Conduct Disorder\, focusing especially on one pathway that involves failures in the normal development of empathy\, guilt\, and other forms of prosocial emotions. Children in this pathway often show a particularly severe\, aggressive\, and stable pattern of behavior\, which has led to its inclusion in recent diagnostic criteria for Conduct Disorder. The current talk will also focus on the implications of this research for identifying children in need of early intervention for their behavior problems and for designing effective interventions for children and adolescents with Conduct Disorder in mental health clinics\, schools\, or the juvenile justice system.\n \nPaul J. Frick\, Ph.D is the Roy Crumpler Memorial Chair in the Department of Psychology at the Louisiana State University and professor in Learning Science Institute of Australia at Australian Catholic University.

J. Winckelmann has been isolated from the wider context which made his career possible: the libertine culture of aristocratic neo-classicism which spread from Italy to France\, England\, and the Germanies in the eighteenth century and\, more importantly\, the booming Roman art market which served the Grand Tour. Winckelmann\, who had seen almost nothing but Baroque (and medieval) art before arriving in Rome\, spent most of his first years in Rome among artists and restorers\, who taught him a great deal about the technicalities of classical art. Winckelmann befriended many restorers—including Rome’s most successful\, Bartholomeo Cavaceppi—as well as art dealers\, men for whom the discernment of styles\, authenticity\, and iconography were professional and vital requirements. We may not ever know just how much Winckelmann learned from the Roman makers and collectors of casts\, copies\, and forgeries\, or from the dealers\, but it was certainly a significant amount. Finally\, we need to see Winckelmann’s work too in the context of mercantile attempts to make ‘national’ luxury goods salable on wider European and world markets\; the porcelain industry\, with its emphasis on ‘whiteness\,’ is especially relevant to the making of neoclassical taste. \n\nFor a copy of the paper\, please contact Julia Hell at hell@umich.edu.\n\nFree and open to the Public.

But some of its strongest advocates deny that they are engaged in feminist scholarship or in any way influenced by feminist politics. Professor Wylie questions their conviction that research is only credible if it is ‘value free’\, and argues that the critical insights of a feminist standpoint are a crucial resource for empirical research\, and not just in archaeology. Rather than a ‘view from nowhere’\, she makes the case for rethinking ideals of objectivity in terms that counter epistemic injustice and mobilize the situated interests and experience of diverse knowers.\n\nAlison Wylie is a Professor of Philosophy at the Universities of Washington (Seattle) and Durham (UK). Her focal interests as a philosopher of science are questions about how we know what we (think) we know\, especially as these arise in archaeological practice and in feminist social science. In both contexts a flashpoint for internal debate has been a cluster of epistemic claims that many see as profoundly destabilizing: that what counts as evidence is inescapably an interpretive construct\, and that social\, and that contextual values play in all aspects of inquiry. Wylie argues that polarized reactions to constructionist and relativist challenges miss the point\; we need to start with the messy realities of inquiry and consider how situated knowers do their best work. Taking up this challenge she asks: What counts as evidence? and\, How are research communities enriched when they cultivate a diversity of experience\, angles of vision\, skills and insight? Her publications Thinking from Things (2002) and\, with archaeologist Bob Chapman\, Material Evidence (co-edited\, 2015) and Evidential Reasoning in Archaeology (co-authored\, 2016)\; articles on collaborative practice in archaeology (e.g.\, in Objectivity in Science 2015)\; and several recent papers on feminist standpoint theory\, including the 2012 Presidential Address to the American Philosophical Association\, “Feminist Philosophy of Science: Standpoint Matters.”\n\nThis event is part of IRWG's Feminist Science Studies program.

Motion by mean curvature is a prototype of geometric motion which is a gradient flow (of the surface energy). Heterogeneity leads to wiggling energy landscape. Their combination gives rise to interesting questions about surface dynamics\, pinning-depinning phenomena and the underlying pattern formation. The above can be demonstrated even in very simple spin systems with nearest and next-nearest neighbor interactions.

I will discuss some (hardly all) of the following topics. \n\n 1. A survival guide for feeble fish. How fish can get from A to B in turbulent waters which maybe much fasted than the locomotive speed of the fish (provided that there is no large-scale drift of the water flow)? This is related to homogenization of G-equation which is believed to govern many combustion processes. Based on a joint work with S. Ivanov and A. Novikov.\n 2. One of the greatest achievements in Dynamics in the XX century is the KAM Theory. It says that a small perturbation of a non-degenerate completely integrable system still has an overwhelming measure of invariant tori with quasi-periodic dynamics. What happens outside KAM tori has been remaining a great mystery. The main quantitate invariants so far are entropies. It is easy\, by modern standards\, to show that topological entropy can be positive. It lives\, however\, on a zero measure set. We are now able to show that metric entropy can become infinite too\, under arbitrarily small C^{infty} perturbations\, answering an old-standing problem of Kolmogorov. Furthermore\, a slightly modified construction resolves another longstanding problem of the existence of entropy non-expansive systems. In these modified examples positive positive metric entropy is generated in arbitrarily small tubular neighborhood of one trajectory. Joint with S. Ivanov and D. Chen.\n 3. \"What is inside?\" Imagine a body with some intrinsic structure\, which\, as usual\, can be thought of as a metric. One knows distances between boundary points (say\, by sending waves and measuring how long it takes them to reach specific points on the boundary). One may think of medical imaging or geophysics. This topic is related to minimal fillings and surfaces in normed spaces. Joint work with S. Ivanov.\n 4. How well can we approximate an (unbounded) space by a metric graph whose parameters (degree of vertices\, length of edges\, density of vertices etc) are uniformly bounded? We want to control the ADDITIVE error. Some answers (the most difficult one is for $\R^2$) are given using dynamics and Fourier series. Joint with Ivanov. \n 5.How can one discretize elliptic PDEs without using finite elements\, triangulations and such? On manifolds and even reasonably \"nice\"mm spaces. A notion of rho-Laplacian and its stability. Joint with S. Ivanov and Kurylev.\n 6. A solution of Buseman's problem on minimality of surface area in normed spaces for 2-D surfaces (including a new formula for the area of a convex polygon). joint with S. Ivanov.

Kodama and Williams showed a remarkable relationship between soliton graphs\, which encode the asymptotic behavior of line soliton solutions of the KP equation\, and Postnikov's combinatorial theory of the totally nonnegative Grassmannian. Line soliton solutions correspond to points in the Grassmannian\, and soliton graphs which come from the totally positive Grassmannian turn out to be examples of Postnikov's plabic graphs. In addition\, Kodama and Williams showed that soliton graphs corresponding to the totally positive part of the Grassmannian of planes have a nice combinatorial interpretation interms of triangulations. In this talk\, we use triangulations to encode soliton graphs for the totally positive part of Gr(k\,n) for all k. In the process\, we recover Kodama and Williams' result that these soliton graphs are in fact plabic graphs. This project is joint with Yuji Kodama and Jihui Huang.\n Speaker(s): Rachel Karpman (Ohio State University) UID:37178-6337469@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/37178 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Mathematics LOCATION:East Hall - 4088 CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20160815T202311 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20170324T153000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20170324T170000 SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Economic Theory DESCRIPTION:Abstract and paper not yet available.

This deformation history altered the topography and drainage patterns and basins throughout the southwest. We perform a comprehensive analysis of the dynamics of the plate boundary zone in the western U.S. since 36 Ma\, focusing on the U.S. Basin and Range region\, with the goal of understanding the link between mantle dynamics\, crustal deformation history\, and topography evolution. Using position estimates from McQuarrie and Wernicke [2005]\, we determine lithospheric strain rates through time and integrate these to determine estimates of crustal thickness evolution. Final estimates of crustal thickness and topography show prominent ‘Nevadaplano’ and Mogollon highland regions that would have resulted from Sevier through Laramide aged shortening. The locations of Cordilleran metamorphic core complexes lie within these zones of reconstructed thick crustal welts\, in agreement with Coney and Harms [1984]. Using reconstructions of topography and crustal thickness we investigate solutions to vertically integrated force-balance equations for the lithosphere through time. Results show that deviatoric stresses associated with gravitational collapse of topography are consistent with early crustal stretch directions along the belt of metamorphic core complexes within the southwestern Cordillera. We also solve for stress field boundary conditions through time\, such that the contributions from crustal body forces\, together with boundary condition effects\, can provide a total stress field that is consistent with the orientations of crustal strain through time. The boundary conditions suggest the need for additional extension imposed\, first\, on the Great Basin (between 36 – 20 Ma) and then on the southern Basin and Range (25 – 15 Ma). These calculations are consistent with the proposed slab rollback history of the Farallon slab [Dickinson\, 2002]. Between 15 Ma and 5 Ma the boundary conditions are dominated by stresses associated with the development of the strike-slip plate boundary zone in California. Our calculations for the dynamics over time within the southwestern Cordillera suggest that following Sevier and Laramide shortening events\, the lithosphere must have undergone dramatic weakening. This weakening\, together with the changing boundary conditions\, led to a dramatic collapse of a mountain belt that rivaled the present-day Andes in elevation. The most likely weakening mechanism is associated with the introduction of heat\, fluids and volcanism\, which can be linked to the slab rollback history of the Farallon plate.

These dynamical “liquid droplets” enable many central cellular functions – from ribosome assembly\, to RNA regulation and storage\, to signaling and metabolism. While it is clear that these compartments represent a type of separated phase\, what controls their formation\, how specific biological components are included or excluded\, and how these structures influence physiological and biochemical processes remain largely mysterious. I will discuss recent experiments on phase separated droplets both in vitro and in vivo\, and will present theoretical results that highlight a novel “magic number” effect relevant to the formation and control of two-component phase separated liquid droplets.

To facilitate the early lead discovery rate\, I will first describe a rapid protein-based 19F NMR method for detecting protein-ligand interactions by screening low complexity molecules (fragments) as well as higher complexity molecules. We label the aromatic amino acids with the highly sensitive fluorine atom\, due to the high conservation of aromatic residues at protein interfaces. We have tested the sensitivity\, accuracy\, and speed of this method with the protein interaction domain of CBP\, KIX\, screening 508 small molecule fragments. In the second part of the talk\, I will describe an extension and improvements in our method for the field of epigenetics targeting bromodomain-containing proteins Brd4\, BrdT and BPTF. These studies have led to the discovery of some of the first selective ligands for the bromodomain BPTF and new submicromolar ligands for Brd4. Finally\, I will address the synthesis\, development\, and application of two of our new chemical probes for studying epigenetic protein function\, including a new role for BPTF regulation of the oncogene\, c-Myc. The speed\, ease of interpretation\, and low concentration of protein needed for binding experiments affords a new method to discover and characterize both native and new ligands for bromodomains and may find utility in the study of additional epigenetic “reader” domains.\nWilliam Pomerantz (University of Minnesota) UID:38903-7435844@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/38903 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Chemistry,Science LOCATION:Chemistry Dow Lab - CHEM 1640 CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20170324T180013 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20170324T160000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20170324T200000 SUMMARY:Other:Food Fundraiser!

Insights can be gained from placing phonetic and phonological findings within their social context. Recent advances in phonetic methods can enhance our descriptions and understanding of speech in practice. This talk illustrates the rewards of doing sociophonetic research by considering a case study which takes a particular sociological context\, Glasgow\, a large industrial city over the 20th century\, and examines phonological variation and change over the same period in its vernacular dialect (Stuart-Smith et al in press 2017\; Stuart-Smith et al in press 2017\; Sounds of the City). Specifically I will present findings from novel phonetic investigation into three areas of the consonantal system\, coda /r l/ (cf Stuart-Smith et al 2015)\, fricatives /s ʃ/ (cf Stuart-Smith 2007)\, and the stop voicing contrast /b d t d k g/ (cf Stuart-Smith et al 2015). The results demonstrate how sound changes are linked with the changing social context in which they occur for this speech community over time. They also show how the inclusion of social information can enhance our understanding of phonetic and phonological processes more generally.\n\nReferences\n\nFoulkes\, Paul\, and Gerard Docherty. 2006.

We consider a class of solutions with pure impulse initial data below threshold that decay at $|x|\to \infty$. We are particularty interested in a neighbourhood of the gradient catastrophy that contains both modulated plane waves and spikes. We aim to describe the solutions using special funtions. Besides the gradient catastrophe point (we think of it as a more degenerate point than other generic locations of phase transition)\, we are also intested in describing when the first time the phase transition appear for genral location and the behaviours of the solutions nearby. These phase transitions have universality in the sense that the space-time locations and solutions behave the same way in the asymptotic limit for different initial data chosen from the class we consider. The location only depends on very simple parameters. We use the Deift-Zhou steepest descent method for the analysis and the result is inspired by Tovbis-Bertola.

We challenged them to ask themselves a simple question: “Why not me?”\n\nIn response\, 130 student-led project teams applied to the optiMize Challenge. Since then\, we’ve been working together every week to bring their ideas to life. From urban farming to health technology to STEM workshops for underserved girls\, these are some inspiring projects.\n\nAs summer approaches\, we’re announcing our fifth annual cohort of optiMize Fellows. We’ll award $200\,000 to 37 student Fellows across 19 project teams so they can work full-time on their social impact projects this summer.\n\nCome see their presentations at the Showcase and learn how you can start turning your own ideas into impact!\n\nIt’s sure to be an inspiring night.
