For each one\, an accompanying explanation describes its significance. The subjects of the images are cells\, tissues and organs\, from a wide variety of biological sources (plants\, worms\, fruit flies\, fish\, mice and yes\, even human brain). The colors are added by investigators\, to allow them to see the otherwise transparent tissues. By looking at these microscopic images\, you will learn about research into normal embryonic development as well as cutting-edge investigations into diseases such as basal cell carcinoma\, bipolar disease\, epilepsy and cancer.

Another one of the seven artists\, Lorraine Kolasa\, picked up the old fashioned art of tatting\, then cast tiny pieces of her handmade lace into sterling silver jewelry. Michael Nashef\, who spent half his life in war-torn Lebanon\, has created a series of innovative vessels and brooches. Other artists included in this exhibit are Kim Cridler\, Roger Smith\, Renee Zettle-Sterling and Ruth Taubman\, whose unmatched exuberance of color and 36 years of work and business innovation\, place her jewelry firmly on the national stage.

Over two thousand years later\, we are still political animals\, and the study of ancient cities is of abiding interest\, for our perceptions of the urban centers of the past continue to exert a powerful hold on modern culture. \n\nThis exhibition showcases three Classical cities where the University of Michigan sponsors field projects: Gabii in Italy\, Olynthos in Greece\, and Notion in Turkey. The archaeologists excavating these cities\, in collaboration with students and faculty from U-M’s Taubman College of Architecture and Urban Planning\, are comparing their findings to projects of urban rebuilding in contemporary Detroit\, asking two main questions: How do contemporary archaeological methods facilitate the study of both ancient and modern cities? And how can the study of the past help illuminate the challenges and opportunities facing Detroit today? \n\nLead Curator: Christopher Ratté\nCo-Curators: Lisa Nevett\, Nicola Terrenato\, and Kathy Velikov\n\nVisit the exhibition website: http://exhibitions.kelsey.lsa.umich.edu/urban-biographies UID:52176-12520846@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/52176 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:AEM Featured,Archaeology,Architecture,Classical Studies,Detroit,Environment,Exhibition,Museum LOCATION:Kelsey Museum of Archaeology CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20181017T133433 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20181025T090000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20181025T170000 SUMMARY:Conference / Symposium:International Institute Conference.

I use a variety of 16th and 17th-century botanical images\, from Chinese plum blossoms to German botanicals\, as starting points for each drawing. Rather than alluding to an actual landscape\, I instead combine species of plants in the same drawing that would not customarily exist together in nature. Obsessive handwork creates intricate layers of visual information to be discovered over time and\, in this way\, the works become a seductive meditation for the viewer.\n\nI use botanical motifs to create images that are universally associated with growth and continuity. My deeper intent is to conjure the ‘flower’ as an active\, forceful agent\, subverting a culturally conditioned point of view that often deems the ephemeral and the organic as less powerful and of limited value. My ‘wonderland’ presents a view of life that pulses with expansive fecundity\; hopefully\, it also propels comprehension of the connectedness of all beings within the limitless energy operating throughout this world.\n\nWhen making art for public spaces\, I strive to invest these commissions with similar content\, while bringing beauty and a high level of craft to a particular environment. As I conceive and develop each piece\, I respond to the specifics of the surrounding architecture\, ecosystem\, and community in an effort to compellingly meet the needs of the site. My studio practice\, in turn\, is invigorated by opportunities to design work in relationship to an existing framework\, and the special demands and responsibilities this process entails.

In the early 1970s\, that question was hotly debated as artists\, critics\, and the public grappled with the relationship between art\, politics\, race\, and feminism. Many of those debates centered on bringing to light the roles that gender and race played in how “great modern art” was defined and assessed\, and on employing art to advance civil rights. Within this discourse\, abstraction had an especially fraught role. To many\, the decision by women artists and artists of color to make abstract art seemed to represent a retreat from politics and protest: an abnegation of a commitment to civil rights and feminism. \"Abstraction\, Color\, and Politics in the Early 1970s\" presents large-scale work by four leading American artists—Helen Frankenthaler\, Sam Gilliam\, Al Loving\, and Louise Nevelson—who chose abstraction as a means of expression within the intense political climate of the early 1970s.\n\nLead support for \"Abstraction\, Color\, and Politics in the Early 1970s\" is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost\, Michigan Medicine\, the Richard and Rosann Noel Endowment Fund\, the Herbert W. and Susan L.

'Beyond Borders: Global Africa' reflects on this moment by considering how Africa and its artists have been at the center of complex histories of encounter and exchange for centuries. Bringing together a dazzling array of works made in Africa\, Europe\, and the United States from the nineteenth to twenty-first century\, the exhibition demonstrates the international scope and reach of art from Africa and the African diaspora. It also explores issues such as slavery\, colonization\, migration\, racism\, and identity at play in the objects and their histories. Highlights include paintings\, photographs\, sculpture\, and installations by Kudzanai Chiurai\, Omar Victor Diop\, Wangechi Mutu\, and Serge Alain Nitegeka. The exhibition will be accompanied by a fully-illustrated publication\, the tenth in the UMMA Books series.\n\nLead support for 'Beyond Borders: Global Africa' is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost\, Michigan Medicine\, the National Endowment for the Arts\, and the University of Michigan Office of Research\, African Studies Center\, and Department of Afroamerican and African Studies.

The workshop will involve topics relevant to graduate student professionalization\, including issues of craft and public-facing scholarship. Please reach out to Zoey Dorman (zdorman@umich.edu) or Talin Tahajian (talatahaj@umich.edu) to receive copies of the pre-circulated papers.\n\n“This essay [‘Specters of the Ballad’] argues that Paul Laurence Dunbar’s ballad ‘The Haunted Oak’ (1901) indexes Dunbar’s invention of the modern American lyric through the (lynching) form of modern racism. How does race ghost-write poetry’s redefinition around the lyric? How does it create a dramatically abstract ‘speaker’ that gives voice to and for an imagined community? Dunbar inverts both romantic apostrophe and Victorian dramatic monologue and dialogue in his speaking bough. He does this by framing his poem as a pre-romantic border ballad\, a tale of Scots rebellion and English law superimposed upon American racist violence. What Jacqueline Goldsby has dubbed ‘racism’s modern life form’ thus becomes modern American poetry’s life form\, a lyricized poetic history haunted from root to branch.”\n\n“‘The Function of Criticism at the Present Time’ is part of part of the Los Angeles Review of Books special series ‘No Crisis’: a look at the state of critical thinking and writing—literary interpretation\, art history\, and cultural studies—in the 21st century. Jackson reviews Lauren Berlant’s Cruel Optimism.” UID:56803-14006007@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/56803 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:English,Literature LOCATION:Angell Hall - 3154 CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20180904T121534 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20181025T110000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20181025T190000 SUMMARY:Exhibition:Have We Met? Dialogues on Memory and Desire DESCRIPTION:Have We Met: Dialogues on Memory and Desire draws inspiration from Ann Arbor’s legacy of social movements (Anti-War Movement\, Civil Rights Movements) and experimental art practices (The Once Group) from the late-1950s to the 1970s as its point of departure. It brings together archival materials and reproductions from the University of Michigan’s Labadie Collection and the Bentley Library in conjunction with radical artworks by diverse\, multi-generational artists and designers whose works are deeply influenced by the ideas of freedom and self-determination\; re-writing the canonical accounts of history\; and building contemporary culture and solidarity through collective action.\n\nAt a time when the idea of citizenship in the United States is being deeply challenged and redefined through horrific occurrences of gun violence and police brutality towards racialized and queer civilians and refugees\, this exhibition asks what role art institutions can play in building inclusive and vibrant creative spaces the 21st Century. Have We Met? Dialogues on Memory and Desire retraces and learns from models of collectivity and organizing mobilized by artists\, designers\, and cultural producers in the past and present as a lens to understand the contemporary moment and re-imagine the future.  It explores the complex relationships and at times overlapping and contested concerns between contemporary art\, design\, and social justice that continually influence and inform one another.\n\nArtists: Rudolf Baranik\, Stephanie Dinkins\, Emory Douglas\, Brendan Fernandes\, Chitra Ganesh\, Carole Harris\, Maren Hassinger\, Al Loving\, Josh MacPhee\, Native Art Department International\, Michele Oka Doner\, Yoko Ono\, Kameelah Janan Rasheed\, Martha Rosler\, Buster Simpson\, Gregory Sholette\, Leni Sinclair\, Stephanie Syjuco\, Graem Whyte\, and Zafos Xagoraris. \n\nCurated by Srimoyee Mitra.

The subsequent article\, “Michigan Homecoming\,” which brought national attention to UM’s athletic program\, featured a seven-page spread with photographs of the campus during a much-anticipated football game between the number-one ranked Michigan Wolverines and the University of Minnesota’s Golden Gophers. This installation provides a unique opportunity to view twenty-one images of that weekend\, many of which were not published in the original article\, recently donated to UMMA by John and Susan Edwards Harvith. Considered alongside the article\, these photographs of fervent fans\, strolling couples\, alumni making their annual pilgrimage\, and the game itself present LIFE magazine’s view of a giddy post-war public enjoying a return to American pastimes.\n\nThese photographs were recently gifted to UMMA by John (AB '69\, JD '73) and Susan (MMP '73) Harvith.

While the geoglyphs were an integral part of the Nasca Culture (AD 100-650) this ancient society was just one of many that made Nasca their home. During the several thousand years of occupation the region saw many transformations including the development of regionally integrated complex societies\, imperial conquest by the highland Wari\, collapse and abandonment\, resettlement of the region possibly by highlanders\, and imperial conquest once again by the Inca. Many factors were involved in these shifts\, and included the organization of kinship groups\, subsistence strategies\, influxes of immigrants and new ideas\, religious movements\, climate change\, trade and social networks\, and external imperial policies. This talk will explore these issues and the implications for broader patterns of change in the Andean region.

Their role remains elusive but over the years several pathologies and organelle functions have been coupled to lipid membrane structural complexity. In this talk we will discuss lipid membrane polymorphism and how it can be exploited to generate a new class of materials for the delivery of cargo to cells. We combine a number of techniques including X-ray scattering\, cryo-EM\, and cell culture to demonstrate that the structure of lipid nanoparticles is a powerful handle to boost the delivery of genes to cells. The simple argument that non-bilayer phases having intertwined nanoscale channels exist to increase surface-to-volume ratio might be insufficient to completely describe the experimental findings. We will show that synthetic lipid and lipid-polymer hybrid materials are able to capture many structural and dynamic properties seen in natural systems\, when local heterogeneities and self-assembly out of equilibrium is taken into account. \n\nBIO\nCecilia Leal is an Assistant Professor of Materials Science and Engineering and is affiliated with the Frederick Seitz Materials Research Laboratory at University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign.

Subsequent facultative hormonal cascades are key for rapid physiological and behavioral acclimation. Although many endocrine cascades are known to respond rapidly to environmental perturbations\, it is only recently that we have discovered the plasticity of these responses over the life cycle. Mechanisms underlying modulation of physiological and behavioral responses to environmental change have triggered two major hypotheses. 1. the evolutionary constraints hypothesis which posits that endocrine systems are highly conserved and there are limited ways by which the responses can be modulated. 2. The evolutionary flexibility hypothesis suggesting that there are multiple ways by which endocrine systems can be modulated. This talk will focus on specific facultative hormonal responses and explore why and how these are modulated in relation to the two hypotheses.

Though ideal point estimation techniques are frequently used\, the theoretical implications of assumptions made in order to empirically estimate ideal points provide cause for concern. Current scaling techniques ignore the role of group-level dependencies within the data. Assumptions about independence of observations in the scaling model ignore the possibility that members of the voting body have shared incentives to vote as a group. In turn\, this leads to potential biases in the estimated values of the ideal points and underestimation of the number of dimensions needed to model the ideal point space. In this paper\, I propose a new ideal point model that explicitly allows for group contributions in the underlying spatial model of voting. I derive a corresponding empirical model that utilizes flexible Bayesian nonparametric priors to estimate group ideological effects in ideal points and the corresponding dimensionality of the ideal points. I apply this model to the 114th U.S. House and show how grouped ideological effects can be uncovered using only a set of roll call votes. This model provides insights into open questions related to group dynamics in legislative voting and has important implications for literature that utilizes ideal point estimates.

For example\, unless there is severe airport surface congestion\, departing aircraft are typically allowed to leave their gate and continue with minimal regulation to the takeoff queue. Similarly\, en route aircraft are typically allowed to continue with minimal regulation to the terminal airspace above their destination. I present three algorithms for minimizing congestion and delays while fully utilizing available resources — runways\, taxiways\, ramps\, and gates. In the first algorithm\, airspace congestion is minimized (thereby minimizing flight time\, fuel burn\, emissions\, and noise) by determining the separation required between successive aircraft prior to their descent to the runway so that each aircraft can execute a continuous descent arrival with little to no controller intervention. In the second algorithm\, ramp congestion is minimized by determining the optimal assignment of flights to concourses based on historical statistics and then assigning flights to specific gates based on nearer-term landing time forecasts. In the third algorithm\, runway utilization is maximized by determining the optimal initial schedule for operations on a runway given uncertainty in taxi out times and the corrective re-sequencing to account for adverse FIFO sequences. \n\nAbout the Speaker:\n\nJohn-Paul Clarke is a College of Engineering Dean’s Professor at Georgia Tech\, where he has appointments in Aerospace Engineering and Industrial and Systems Engineering\, and serves as Director of the Air Transportation Laboratory. His research interests include aircraft trajectory prediction and optimization–especially as it pertains to the development of flight procedures that reduce the environmental impact of aviation–and the development and use of stochastic models and optimization algorithms to improve the efficiency and robustness of airline\, airport\, and air traffic operations. His research has been particularly instrumental in changing both the theory and the practice of flight procedure design. Professor Clarke was co-Chair of the National Academies Committee that developed the US National Agenda for Autonomy Research related to Civil Aviation\, and is a member of the NASA Advisory Council Aeronautics Committee. Over the years\, he has chaired or served on advisory and technical committees chartered by the AIAA\, EU\, FAA\, ICAO\, NASA\, the National Academies\, the US Army\, and the US DOT. Dr. Clarke received the S.B.\, S.M.\, and Sc.D. degrees from MIT in 1991\, 1992\, and 1997\, respectively. His many prior honors include the 1999 AIAA/AAAE/ACC Jay Hollingsworth Speas Airport Award\, the 2003 FAA Excellence in Aviation Award\, the 2006 National Academy of Engineering Gilbreth Lectureship\, the 2012 AIAA/SAE William Littlewood Lectureship\, and the SAE Environmental Excellence in Transportation Award in 2015. He is a Fellow of the AIAA\, and is a member of AGIFORS\, INFORMS\, and Sigma Xi.

We have recently developed new approaches for selective C-H and C-O functionalization of alcohols and carbonyls\, using a combination of radical (1e-) and closed shell (2e-) processes that act in concert with one another. These new radical chaperone strategies have enabled the development of chemical transformations with applications within molecules of biological and industrial interest. \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \nDavid Nagib (The Ohio State University) UID:52741-12986895@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/52741 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Chemistry,Science LOCATION:Chemistry Dow Lab - CHEM 1640 CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20181016T120212 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20181025T160000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20181025T173000 SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Communication Frictions and Knowledge Transfers: Evidence from FDI DESCRIPTION:This paper examines knowledge transfers from foreign managers to domestic managers within MNCs. Using a newly developed survey of domestic middle managers in Myanmar\, we find evidence of large communication frictions between management layers: foreign managers cannot speak Myanmar\, domestic managers cannot speak the company's language (e.g.\, Japanese\, Korean or Chinese)\, and both groups are not well versed in English. These frictions impose costs on MNCs and impede knowledge spillovers to domestic managers. The study can help reconcile why spillovers from FDI are often limited\, despite widespread claims\, and why cross-border investment is very responsive to language barriers.

The fungus Amanita phalloides is deadly poisonous and a rich literature records its history in Europe and America\; the death cap is invasive in California. After briefly describing its history in North America\, I will talk about the population genomics data we are using to delineate individuals (or genets). By collecting and genotyping mapped populations of fungi from California\, Europe\, and the Northeast U.S.\, we are discovering that most mushrooms in a habitat are unique genetic individuals. Data suggest that genets of A. phalloides are typically less than 1 m in diameter. The pattern holds across California\, Europe\, and the Northeast\, and is the same for sites where populations are assumed to be young\, and sites where A. phalloides has been collected for over 30 years. In fact\, data collected at different time points from the same sites evince the same structures\, even when populations are collected 10 years apart. There appears to be no correlation between body size and geographic origin or age of a population\, moreover\, dispersal appears highly local: most spores appear to fall just next to their source.\n\nView YouTube video of seminar: https://youtu.be/tjYITvG7P-4 UID:49652-11487537@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/49652 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Biology LOCATION:Biological Sciences Building - 1060 CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20181017T075157 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20181025T160000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20181025T180000 SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:EIHS Lecture: Is There a Socialist Everyday? Production and Social Reproduction in Maoist Beijing DESCRIPTION:Abstract: In the years between 1958 and 1962\, the Urban Commune movement was promoted as a radical effort to change the daily lives of city residents. By inserting women into the “productive” life of factory work\, the movement also aimed at achieving a new form of everyday\, based on a true equality of gender relationships\, one achieved through the shared creativity of manual labor. While the movement failed\, it nonetheless brought to the fore some of the crucial tensions that marred the search for a socialist everyday: between participatory democracy and state hierarchy\, between production and liberation\, and between labor and gender equality.\n\nFabio Lanza (PhD\, Columbia University\, 2004) is professor of modern Chinese history in the Departments of History and East Asian Studies of the University of Arizona.

Her research explores how the notion of infrapolitics articulates with sexual difference through a reading of Selva Almada’s work Chicas Muertas (2014). Almada\, an Argentine writer\, writes a hybrid text investigating 3 femicides in Argentina during the 80’s\, the first years of the democratic transition. The writing of Almada traces the hierarchical powers of gender violence and opens a space to think woman beyond the patriarchal binaries and its violence. What does it mean to be a woman if one is not what the killers want\, that is\, a mere biological body? How not to be reduced to that minimal body that the murderers aim to appropriate totally? How not to be reduced to a mere body without rest\, to escape that biological murdering determinism?\n\n\nPeláez addresses those questions from a unique perspective which engages closely with feminism and Latin-American studies. She approaches an under researched area of philosophy\, i.e. sexual difference\, and articulates it with contemporary works of Latin American fiction and critical thought. Her scholar work on gender and sexuality is addressing historical gaps in both scholarships and responds to a particular urgency to discuss women’s work and intellectual contributions in our times. \n\n\nIn the workshop\, Peláez will be present for an informal discussion of texts on sexual difference with faculty and graduate students. \n\n\nPlease e-mail rparrine@umich.com to RSVP to the workshop and receive the texts we will be discussing.

This paper will focus on the example of Frances Ellen Watkins Harper in order to begin to tell a different story about the history of American poetry.

Mindfulness is about developing the ability to be fully attentive to all the moments of your life\, reducing the amount of time you spend worrying about the future or fretting about the past. An important aspect of mindfulness is developing a non-judgmental\, accepting\, even curious\, attitude about your moment-to-moment experience. The more you develop this attitude\, the less you will feel overwhelmed by changes and challenges in your life.\n\nKoru is designed to introduce you to the practice of mindfulness and get you well on your way to developing this important skill. Like learning any new skill\, it takes practice to get comfortable with mindfulness. We invite you to devote yourself to the study and practice of mindfulness over the next four weeks\, and we challenge you to stay curious about what evolves for you as you persistently and patiently practice living mindfully. We also have a free mobile app to track meditation practices for this course!\n\nFor any questions\, please contact Hitomi Katsumi at hkat@umich.edu.

DESCRIPTION:Abstract:\n\nWe examine the extent to which DNA exonerations can reveal whether wrongful conviction rates differ across races. We show that under a wide-range of assumptions regarding possible explicit or implicit racial biases in the DNA exoneration process (including no bias)\, our results suggest the wrongful conviction rate for rape is substantially and significantly higher among black convicts than white convicts. By contrast\, we show that only if one believes that the DNA exoneration process very strongly favors innocent members of one race over the other could one conclude that there exist significant racial differences in wrongful conviction rates for murder.\n\nco-authored with Eric Helland UID:56224-13867073@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/56224 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Economics,Law,seminar LOCATION:South Hall - 1020 CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20181109T123021 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20181025T170000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20181025T180000 SUMMARY:Careers / Jobs:Edelman Immersion Program Information Session DESCRIPTION:Edelman is the world’s largest communications marketing firm\, with more than 5\,000 employees in 65 cities.

In order to answer those questions\, they need some ability to extract meaning from the data they generate. Data science has recently risen to prominence for its abilities not only to extract this meaning\, but also to turn that meaning into actionable\, data-driven predictions. Combining HPC and data science can allow a researcher to more easily ask questions and discover answers leading to even deeper questions. However\, despite these benefits\, it can be difficult for full-time researchers to learn an emerging field with no guidance while still producing research.To reduce this barrier\, the Scientific Computing Student Club (SC2) presents the HPC and Data Science Workshop Series. For eight weeks in the Fall semester\, we will meet once a week to discuss HPC and Data Science topics\, focusing on how elements of HPC and data science can reinforce research and discovery. There will be no one instructor for this workshop\; instead we will have guest speakers from SC2\, ARC-TS\, MICDE\, and even MathWorks (MATLAB). Attendance at all workshops is encouraged\, but not required. Pizza will be provided.
