SUMMARY:Exhibition:Window Installation | Cosmogonic Tattoos
DESCRIPTION:In celebration of the University’s Bicentennial in 2017\, artist and professor Jim Cogswell has been invited by the Kelsey Museum of Archaeology and the University of Michigan Museum of Art to create a set of public window installations in response to the objects in their collections. Titled \"Cosmogonic Tattoos\,\" his project uses adhesive vinyl images applied in saturated colors to windows in the two buildings\, highlighting the role of these museums in the life of our campus community. Through close examination of objects separated from us by deep chronological and cultural divides\, imaginatively transformed within our campus context\, this project celebrates the power of architecture\, ornament\, and material objects to shape knowledge\, historical memory\, and cultural identity.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Gifts of Art presents Under Covers: Encaustic & Mixed Media
DESCRIPTION:Cat Crotchett’s current work combines elements of eastern and western cultural patterns in fragments that together form something different than their individual parts. These images represent an intersection of information as well as ideas of cultural appropriation\, assimilation\, fragmentation and alteration. Crotchett uses wax because it is relevant to both eastern and early western artistic cultures. A professional artist for over 30 years\, Crotchett has exhibited nationally and internationally. She is a professor at Western Michigan University and lives in Kalamazoo\, Michigan.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:The Life and Times of Lizzy Bennet
DESCRIPTION:As the 200th anniversary of Jane Austen’s death\, 2017 presents an opportunity to showcase not only significant early editions of Austen’s works held in the Special Collections Library\, but a much broader swath of materials revealing the historical milieu in which she and her characters lived.\n\nThe 1780s-1810s was a tumultuous time period in Britain with effects reaching to the present day\, and we are fortunate to be able to draw on a rich collection of sources that illustrate Austen’s historical moment\, from A Companion to the Ballroom and The Book of Common Prayer to An Essay on the Slavery and Commerce of the Human Species... and A Vindication of the Rights of Woman.\n\nThe Library will be closed December 23 to January 1.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:American Berserk exhibition by Valerie Hegarty
DESCRIPTION:Throughout her career\, Brooklyn-based artist Valerie Hegarty has explored fundamental themes of American history and particularly the legacy of 19th-century American art\, addressing topics such as colonization\, slavery\, Manifest Destiny\, nationalism and environmental degradation. Elaborating upon visual references to the art-historical canon of North America\, Hegarty repurposes the ideological tenets of such works into a critical examination of the American legacy.\n\nThe show’s title\, American Berserk\, is borrowed from Philip Roth’s Pulitzer-winning novel American Pastoral\, in which he defines the inverse of the American pastoral ideal as the “indigenous American Berserk.” The show includes a group of ceramic sculptures and a mixed-media site-specific sculpture jutting from the wall. Hegarty’s anarchic\, revisionist take on American history as manifested in the nation’s artistic legacy is embodied in her fantastical works. The sculptures\, which seem imported from a parallel universe\, include watermelons that become animated\, explode and then decay\, sly depictions of George Washington as a series of topiaries\, spectral clipper ships sinking and calcifying into shells\, a branch breaking through the wall and piercing a painting of George Washington making his nose appear to grow and a duo of “fruit face” personae that survey the surreal proceedings.\n\nNote: This grouping of works is an edited restaging of the original show that was initially presented at Burning in Water gallery in New York in 2016.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Matisse Drawings: Curated by Ellsworth Kelly from The Pierre and Tana Matisse Foundation Collection
DESCRIPTION:\"Matisse Drawings: Curated by Ellsworth Kelly from The Pierre and Tana Matisse Foundation Collection\" showcases the master draftsmanship of two of the most significant artists of the twentieth century: Henri Matisse (1869–1954) and Ellsworth Kelly (1923–2015). Curated by Kelly in 2014\, the exhibition speaks to his admiration for Matisse\, as well as to the centrality of drawing in both artists’ practices. To accompany the forty-five rarely exhibited works by Matisse made in the first half of the 20th century\, which reveal his process and range of creativity as a draftsman\, Kelly selected nine of his own lithographic drawings that derive from his time in France during the 1960s\, when the American artist studied Matisse’s sketches and studies of nature and human figures. Together\, the works by Matisse and Kelly form a thought-provoking\, visually striking artistic dialogue\, allowing viewers to experience one artist through the eyes of another and to immerse themselves in the pleasures of close looking.\n                                                                                                                                                                        \n\"Matisse Drawings: Curated by Ellsworth Kelly from The Pierre and Tana Matisse Foundation Collection\" is organized by the American Federation of Arts and the Mount Holyoke College Art Museum in collaboration with The Pierre and Tana Matisse Foundation.\n\nThis exhibition was made possible by the generous support of the Eugene V. and Clare E. Thaw Charitable Trust and The Pierre and Tana Matisse Foundation. Additional support provided by the JFM Foundation and Mrs. Donald M. Cox.\n\nLead support for the local presentation of this exhibition is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost\, Michigan Medicine\, the Michigan Council for Arts and Cultural Affairs\, the Richard and Rosann Noel Endowment Fund\, and the University of Michigan Ross School of Business and the Department of the History of Art.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Power Contained: The Art of Authority in Central and West Africa
DESCRIPTION:Before colonization\, complex hierarchical societies flourished in Central and West Africa. At their summits were a select few—kings and chiefs whose authority was derived from their direct connection to powerful ancestors and predecessors. These rulers were wrapped in expensive textiles or costly furs\, and covered in beads and precious metals\, materials that not only signaled their extraordinary status\, but were also intended to safely contain the great power they wielded. The famous minkisi (meaning “power figure”) sculptures of Central Africa were similarly activated through the addition of charged materials. Textiles\, animal skin\, metal\, and beads allowed the lifeless wooden carvings to be activated by local spiritual leaders in order to communicate with the realm of the ancestors and spirits. This exhibition explores the parallels between the adornment of the king’s physical body and minkisi. Drawing on works from UMMA’s collection and several loans\, the exhibition demonstrates how authority was expressed and power contained across a range of historical cultures in Nigeria\, Ghana\, the Democratic Republic of the Congo and Cameroon.\n\nLead support for Power Contained: The Art of Authority in Central and West Africa is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost and the African Studies Center.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Tim Noble and Sue Webster: The Masterpiece
DESCRIPTION:Since the 1980s\, British artists Tim Noble and Sue Webster have been known for their shadow sculptures built from materials as diverse as scrap metal\, garbage\, taxidermy\, and sex toys. When light is directed at these assemblages\, they project shadows that are exceptionally accurate and intricate representations of other things entirely.\n\n\"The Masterpiece\" (2014) is a shadow self-portrait of the artists created from metal casts of dead vermin they collected and welded together into a ball. From afar the casts appear to be a stunning abstract silver sculpture\; on closer inspection the disturbing menagerie of creatures emerges\, only to change form again—as a shadow on the wall—into a precise and elegant image that is astonishingly different from the objects that create it.\n\nLead support for \"Tim Noble and Sue Webster: The Masterpiece\" is provided by the Herbert W. and Susan L. Johe Endowment\, the Susan and Richard Gutow Fund\, and the University of Michigan Institute for the Humanities. Additional generous support is provided by the Richard and Janet Miller Fund.

SUMMARY:Presentation:Developmental Area Brown Bag - A Developmental Perspective on Substance Use during Adolescence and the Transition to Adulthood
DESCRIPTION:Abstract: A better understanding of adolescence can come from placing it within the life course and systematically considering continuities and discontinuities in developmental course and connections across childhood\, adolescence\, and adulthood. The extent to which the characteristics and experiences of adolescence and the transition to adulthood make a difference on adult health and well-being\, over and above the effects of childhood\, is more assumed than empirically known. Because of continuities and discontinuities across the life course\, some experiences and periods in life are more consequential than others\; to advance our science and provide convincing evidence for social policy we need to know the long-term consequential characteristics and experiences of adolescence and the transition to adulthood. To this end\, I present findings and conceptualizations regarding substance use across adolescence and adulthood to illustrate issues of continuity and discontinuity\, heterogeneity in the course\, risk factors\, and consequences of substance use\, and the power of developmental transitions on the course of health and well-being.\n \nBio:  John Schulenberg is Professor\, Department of Psychology\, and Research Professor\, Institute for Social Research\, University of Michigan. He has published widely on several topics concerning adolescence and the transition to adulthood. As PI of the NIDA-funded U.S. national Monitoring the Future Follow-up Study on the epidemiology and etiology of substance use from adolescence through adulthood\, he brings a developmental perspective to the understanding of individual and contextual risk factors\, course\, co-morbidity\, consequences\, and historical variation of substance use. Over the years\, he has collaborated on several international interdisciplinary projects involving long-term studies to address key questions about life course pathways and connections. His work has been funded by NIAAA\, NICHD\, NIDA\, NIMH\, NSF\, RWJF\, Spencer\, and WT Grant. For these and other institutes and foundations\, he has served on numerous advisory and review committees\, including chairing the NIH Psychosocial Development and Risk Prevention Study Section. He was a member of the Institute of Medicine/National Research Council’s consensus committee on Health and Well-Being during the Transition to Adulthood that recently published Investing in the health and well-being of young adults. He is a Fellow of the American Psychological Association and Past President of the Society for Research on Adolescence. John coached youth community and travel baseball teams for 14 years.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:HEP-Astro Seminar | Surveying the Landscape of DUNE
DESCRIPTION:DUNE is an ambitious international program aiming for discovery in neutrino oscillation physics as well as in searches for nucleon decay and studies of neutrinos from core-collapse supernovae.  The central elements of the experimental platform that will enable this program include a new\, high-intensity neutrino beam line that will be constructed at Fermilab and a suite of massive liquid argon time projection chambers (LArTPC's) to be deployed deep underground in the former Homestake gold mine\, now home to the Sanford Underground Research Facility\, in Lead\, South Dakota.  I will describe the scientific context in which DUNE sits\, talk about several aspects of  technology development for DUNE including work toward efficient detection of scintillation photons in large-volume LArTPC's\, and summarize the status and outlook for DUNE.\n

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:STS Speaker. Dissonant Infrastructures: Tensions between Science and Public Health Embedded in Sickle Cell Disease in Salvador\, Bahia\, Brazil
DESCRIPTION:Epistemic authority for knowledge production about sickle cell disease (SCD) in Brazil lay mostly at the feet of elite scientists associated with established institutions.  These gatekeepers often focus on the biological and medical processes that take place within the body.  SCD activists embedded in the public health infrastructure in Salvador\, discursively deem the interest from scientists to be based in a paradigm that treats the person living with SCD as a commodity to clinical science.  What occurs when social infrastructures that “emphasize the durability and permanence of social systems within which biomedical knowledge production and labor occur\,” (Dent\, 2016) are at odds with each other?  What takes place when the social milieu of place erodes these infrastructures?  This presentation will explore the ways in which activists in the municipal public health department for Salvador circumvent modes of elite knowledge production and reconfigure how SCD is defined by situating the discourse from “inside the body” to “outside” and from biological to cultural.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:IOE 813 Seminar: Sung Won Choi
DESCRIPTION:Multi-dimensional\, Highly Time-resolved Big Data Approach for Disease Prediction\nIndividualized prediction of disease (and disease-related events) is a major unmet challenge\, yet is essential for realizing the full potential of personalized medicine. Underlying the prediction problem is the fact that disease processes\, and the human hosts in which they occur\, represent complex dynamical systems comprised of large numbers of components that interact in non-linear ways over time. A key insight from complexity science is that accurate long-term prediction in such systems is usually not feasible\, but short-term predictions can be successful if multi-parameter\, highly time-resolved data can be collected and integrated using computational methods. Complex science indicates that prediction of disease needs to be done on an ongoing basis\, in near \"real-time\"\, because complex dynamical processes tend to proceed non-linearly. There are \"windows of opportunity\" when signal begins to exceed background noise and the disease process is early enough for intervention to be successful. Please join Dr. Choi as she discusses how she and her collaborators\, including Dr. Wiens (Computer Science/Machine Learning)\, Dr. Tewari (Medical Oncology)\, Dr. Kurabayashi (Mechanical Engineering)\, and Dr. Li (Computational Biology) are using the blood and marrow transplantation setting as an ideal model system to prototype such an approach for disease prediction that is consistent with the highly complex nature of human disease. \n\nSung Won Choi MD MS trained as a pediatric resident at New York University and later as a fellow in pediatric hematology-oncology at the University of Michigan. Through an NIH K23 award\, Sung received additional training in Clinical Research Design and Statistical Analysis through the University of Michigan School of Public Health. She is currently an Associate Professor in the Department of Pediatrics\, and in 2017\, she was named the inaugural Edith S. Briskin / Shirley K Schlafer Research Professor of Pediatrics. Sung specializes in the field of blood and marrow transplantation (BMT) and is recognized for her work in translating the use of histone deacetylase inhibition in BMT patients for prevention of a devastating complication known as graft-versus-host disease (GVHD). She enjoys translational research initiatives that include the use of novel\, non-steroidal therapeutics both in the prevention and treatment of GVHD. Her research efforts focus on: 1) providing an improved understanding of clinical BMT through translation of experimental studies 2) exploring clinical outcomes in BMT patients alongside laboratory correlates\; and 3) leveraging novel tools\, such as information technology\, to support patient- and caregiver-centered care in her clinical and translational research efforts in BMT.\n\nThe seminar series “Providing Better Healthcare through Systems Engineering” is presented by the U-M Center for Healthcare Engineering and Patient Safety (CHEPS):  Our mission is to improve the safety and quality of healthcare delivery through a multi-disciplinary\, systems-engineering approach.\nFor additional information and to be added to the weekly e-mail for the series\, \nplease contact genehkim@umich.edu
