SUMMARY:Exhibition:Celebrating Science & Art
DESCRIPTION:The brilliantly colored images in this exhibit were taken in the course of scientific research\, and are beautiful in their detail\, form and symmetry. 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.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Organic Fiction: Acrylic on Canvas
DESCRIPTION:Hava Gurevich’s colorful abstractions feature botanical\, aquatic and microscopic motifs as she explores repeating patterns in nature. Blending images from the real world and her imagination\, Organic Fiction celebrates nature in all its beauty\, chaos and complexity. Hava Gurevich received a BFA in photography from U-M and an MFA in painting from Illinois State University. Her creative process begins with photographs and sketches of details in nature\, such as tree branches\, ice patterns\, twisted vines\, and delicate spring blossoms. These drawings contribute to her personal vocabulary of shapes and gestures\, and she often digitally combines them with older paintings to become starting points of new works.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Causal Inference in Education Research Seminar (CIERS): The Causal Impact of Removing Children from Abusive and Neglectful Homes
DESCRIPTION:Abstract:\n\nThis paper uses administrative data to measure causal impacts of removing children from families investigated for abuse or neglect. We use the removal tendency of quasi-experimentally assigned child protective service investigators as an instrument for whether authorities removed and placed children into foster care. We measure the impacts on educational outcomes by gender and age at removal. We find significant reductions in special education program participation and significant increases in standardized test scores for girls removed before the age of six. There are no detectable impacts on the test scores of girls removed at older ages or boys of any age. We measure impacts of removal on teenage pregnancy\, juvenile convictions\, high school dropout\, and college attendance for children removed at older ages\, and we do not find significant effects. We investigate mechanisms driving our findings such as foster care placement\, school mobility\, and the quality of school attended\, and discuss the results in the context of the literature on early-life interventions.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:David Cope: Player of Invisible Keys
DESCRIPTION:Celebrate the work of Michigan poet David Cope\, once described by Allen Ginsberg as one of the \"leading lights of the next generation.\" This exhibit draws on drafts\, proofs\, and other documents from Cope's archive to offer a glimpse into his poetic and editorial process.\n\nWorking most often in the Objectivist tradition of Charles Reznikoff\, Carl Rakosi\, and George Oppen\, David Cope has a particular gift for descriptive detail and for juxtaposing the the intimacy of daily life with commentary on the arc of current events and the particularity of personal relationships with the universality of human experience. He received the Pushcart Prize for “The Crash” in 1977 and an award in literature from the American Academy and Institute of Arts and Letters for On The Bridge (1986). Additionally\, for more than forty years\, Cope has edited and published a small press literary magazine\, The Big Scream\, providing a venue for more than 200 poets\, including both big names names and younger\, lesser-known poets. Earlier this year\, Ghost Pony Press released Cope’s eighth poetry collection: The Invisible Keys: New and Selected Poems.\n\nOn view during Special Collections Research Center hours: Monday-Friday\, 8:30 a.m. to 5:00 p.m.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Exhibition | Urban Biographies\, Ancient and Modern
DESCRIPTION:Human beings are political animals\, said the Greek philosopher Aristotle: animals that live in the “polis\,” the Greek word for city. 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

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Art Exhibit: Nancy Blum\, RC Class of '85
DESCRIPTION:RC alumna '85 Nancy Blum returns to East Quad to exhibit her drawings of flowers and to deliver the 10/19 Robertson Lecture on her public art installations. \n\nExcerpted from her artist statement:\nMy large‐scale works on paper\, rendered in ink\, colored pencil\, gouache and graphite\, portray a fantastic realm in which flowers own the space. 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.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Abstraction\, Color\, and Politics in the Early 1970s
DESCRIPTION:Can abstract art be about politics? 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. Johe Endowment\, and the University of Michigan Institute for Research on Women and Gender. Additional generous support is provided by the Robert and Janet Miller Fund and the University of Michigan Department of Political Science.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Beyond Borders: Global Africa
DESCRIPTION:More than ever in the era of globalization\, ideas traverse geographic\, generational\, and cultural boundaries\, even as national borders seem to be closing. '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. Additional generous support is provided by the University of Michigan CEW Frances and Sydney Lewis Visiting Leaders Fund and Susan Ullrich.

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.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Applied Physics Seminar: \"Advanced Marine Structures in Multiphase Flows\"
DESCRIPTION:In recent years\, there has been an increased interest in the use of advanced materials for maritime applications\, including propellers\, turbines\, hydrofoils\, control surfaces\, energy saving and energy harvesting devices. Compared to traditional metallic alloys\, advanced polymer composites offer the advantage of higher strength-to-weight ratio\, better fatigue characteristics\, higher durability\, and better resistance to sea water corrosion and other chemical agents. Moreover\, active materials\, sensors\, and actuators can be embedded inside composites to develop multi-functional marine structures that can not only bare load\, but also provide improved functionality\, including the ability to enable in situ flow and structural health monitoring\, vibration and noise control\, as well as renewable energy harvesting.  In particular\, advanced marine structures can be designed to enable passive or active tailoring of the cavitation/ventilation inception speed\, cavity size\, and cavity shedding frequencies.  Although there exists many advantages\, there are many challenges to the design\, analysis\, testing\, and operation of multi-functional marine structures.  Any structure that is designed to interact with the surrounding multiphase flow are intrinsically more sensitive to changes in flow conditions and rapid body manoeuvers.  Moreover\, the system natural frequencies and damping characteristics may vary with proximity to free surface\, forward speed\, waves\, cavitation and ventilation.  Lock-in of the flow excitation frequency with one of the body natural frequencies or their harmonics can lead to dynamic load amplifications\, flow-induced vibrations and noise\, flutter and even parametric resonance.  Nonlinear feedback between the surrounding multiphase flow and body deformations\, as well as hysteresis fluid-structure interaction behaviour further complicate flow control methodologies.  Hence\, the focus of this talk is to advance the fundamental understanding of the fluid-structure interaction response and stability of advanced marine structures in complex\, multiphase flows\, and to explore innovative methods to develop multi-functional marine structures to sense and control cavitation and/or ventilation.\n\nProf. Young a Professor at the Department of Naval Architecture and Marine Engineering and the Director of the Marine Hydrodynamics Laboratory at the University of Michigan. Prof. Young is internationally well known for her work on modelling of adaptive composite marine propulsors and turbines.  Prof. Young is a member of the Seakeeping Committee for the International Towing Tank Committee (ITTC)\, and a member of the joint ITTC-ISSC Working Group.  She was also the Society of Naval Architecture and Marine Engineering representative on the United States National Committee on Theoretical and Applied Mechanics between 2009-2014.  Prof. Young is an Associate Editor for the Journal of Ship Research\, an Editorial Board Member on Acta Mechanica Sinica\, and an Associate Editor for the Journal of Offshore\, Mechanics\, Artic\, and Ocean Engineering.  Prof. Young has written over two hundred journal and conference papers in the area of fluid-structure interactions of maritime structures.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Affordable and Wearable Biosensors to Understand Workers’ Mental and Physical Stress
DESCRIPTION:Occupational stress is defined as the harmful physical and mental responses that happen when job requirements are greater than a worker's capacity. Construction is one of the most stressful occupations because it involves physiologically and psychologically demanding tasks performed in a hazardous environment. Various survey instruments for measuring workers′ perceived mental and physical stress have been used\, e.g.\, the perceived stress and fatigue severity scales. These methods can document subjects′ overall stress. However\, they have several key limitations. They are subjective\, invasive\, and cannot be used for continuous stress monitoring. To address these issues\, my doctoral research applies several signal processing and machine learning techniques to propose a comprehensive and efficient stress measurement framework by acquiring high-quality physiological signals from wearable biosensors at job sites. Results yielded a high of 80.13 % mental stress and 90.00% physical stress recognition accuracy. These results are promising given that stress recognition with sensitive and wired physiological devices in the clinical domain has\, at best\, a similar level of accuracy. The proposed physiological signal-based stress recognition framework is expected to help us better understand workplace stressors and to improve worker productivity\, safety\, and well-being through early detection and mitigation of factors that cause stress.\n\nHoutan is a Ph.D. Candidate in the Tishman Construction Management Program\, working under the supervision of Prof. SangHyun Lee. Houtan received his bachelor′s degree in civil engineering from Tehran Polytechnic University in 2012.

SUMMARY:Conference / Symposium:The Future of Social Security: Michigan Forum
DESCRIPTION:What’s at stake? For most of the 20th century\, Americans have been able to rely on multiple sources of retirement income – including Social Security\, personal savings\, pensions and employer-sponsored savings plans – to enjoy some measure of financial security during their later years. The significant reduction in poverty among older Americans through the Social Security program is one our nation’s most significant accomplishments.  \n\nThe challenge we face: For a number of years\, we have known that the protection provided by Social Security may not be 100% sustainable without some changes. The 2018 Report of the Social Security Trustees projects that the program’s revenues will be sufficient to pay all scheduled benefits until 2034\, but 75% of scheduled benefits thereafter. If the Trustees’ projections hold\, this means that workers retiring 16 years from now could receive only three-quarters of the benefits promised. Moreover\, some polls have shown that many working Americans\, especially Millennials\, believe they will receive no Social Security benefits whatsoever. Clearly\, Congress will need to act to bring the program’s finances into long-term balance and to restore public confidence\, especially among current and future generations of workers. What might elected officials do to fix this major challenge facing our nation?\n\nWhat are among the options? Henry Aaron\, a Senior Fellow at the Brookings Institution\, has developed a proposal for how to deal with Social Security’s long-term finances and how Congress might modify the program to better reflect economic\, demographic\, and behavioral changes\, since Congress last enacted major Social Security legislation in 1983. Aaron is one of the nation’s preeminent experts on Social Security\, Medicare\, and budget policy.\n\nFormer Deputy Commissioner (Acting) and Chief Economist at the Social Security Administration\, Jason Fichtner\, will serve as the keynote presenter and describe Henry Aaron’s proposed program. Following Fichtner’s presentation\, several other policy experts will discuss the implications of proposed changes to Social Security.\n\nConcerned members of the academic community at the University of Michigan\, as well as the Detroit-area community\, won’t want to miss this unique opportunity to get an inside look at what Congress may do\, and what this might mean for workers and beneficiaries\, today and tomorrow.\n\n \n\nMichigan Host Committee:\n\nThomas Buchmueller\, Waldo O. Hildebrand Professor of Risk Management and Insurance\, and\n\nProfessor and Chair of Business Economics and Public Policy\, Ross School of Business\, University of Michigan\n\nJohn Laitner\, Director Life-Cycle Economics\, Institute for Social Research\, University of Michigan\n\nHelen Levy\, Research Professor\, University of Michigan Gerald R. Ford School of Public Policy\n\nLuke Shaefer\, Director\, University of Michigan Poverty Solutions\; Associate Professor of Social Work\, School of Social Work\; Associate Professor of Public Policy\, Gerald R. Ford School of Public Policy\n\nErica Solway\, Senior Project Manager\, Health Michigan Plan evaluation\, and Associate Director\, National Poll on Healthy Aging\, Institute for Healthcare Policy & Innovation\, University of Michigan\n\n \n\nAbout the National Academy of Social Insurance\n\nSince the Academy was founded in 1986\, it has hosted convenings designed to provide rigorous inquiry and insights into the functioning of our nation’s social insurance programs and how they can continue to meet the changing needs of American families\, employees\, and employers. Participants in Academy events gain valuable takeaways\, including leading policy options\, the latest research findings in various areas of social insurance\, who’s who in the field\, and which organizations are most engaged in these issues.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Physicians\, Public Speech and Politics
DESCRIPTION:Please join the Michigan Medicine Department of Psychiatry for the 23rd Annual Waggoner Lecture on Ethics & Values in Medicine. The title of this year’s talk is “Physicians\, Public Speech and Politics.” It will be presented by Dr. Rebecca Weintraub Brendel\, M.D.\, J.D. on Wednesday\, November 7 from 4:00 – 5:30 p.m. in Ford Auditorium at University Hospital.\n\nWeintraub Brendel is the director of the master’s degree program at the Harvard Medical School Center for Bioethics. She bases her clinical work in psychiatry at Massachusetts General Hospital (MGH) where she is the director of Law and Ethics at the Center for Law\, Brain\, and Behavior\; provides medical oversight for the hospital’s inpatient guardianship team\; and practices clinical and forensic psychiatry.\n\nDr. Brendel’s clinical practice has focused on patients with complex psychosocial problems\, including trauma\, dementia\, mental illness\, homelessness\, substance abuse\, decisional incapacity\, lack of community support\, and poverty. This broad work has informed her educational efforts and research interests focusing on issues at the interface of psychiatry\, medicine\, law\, ethics\, and human rights. She is an avid teacher and lecturer in both medical and legal settings.\n\nDr. Brendel graduated from both University of Chicago Law School and Pritzker School of Medicine. She completed her psychiatry residency at MGH and McLean Hospital and a forensic psychiatry fellowship at MGH. From 2006 – 2007\, Dr. Brendel was the Edmond J. Safra Faculty Fellow in Ethics at Harvard University.\n\n“We are delighted to welcome Dr. Brendel to our campus in November for this esteemed lectureship\,” said Debra Pinals\, M.D.\, clinical professor of psychiatry and director of the Program in Psychiatry\, Law and Ethics at U-M. “Dr. Brendel brings a depth of knowledge to the field of psychiatry and ethics\, and will be speaking on a timely topic related to physicians\, politics and public speech. She is well suited to speak to the delicate intersection of these areas of focus from the perspective of a mental health and legal professional.”\n\nThe University of Michigan Department of Psychiatry established the Raymond W. Waggoner Lectureship on Ethics and Values in Medicine in 1996. This lectureship was created in honor of the late Dr. Waggoner\, emeritus professor and past chairman of the Department of Psychiatry\, who throughout his career and to all who knew him\, exemplified the highest standards of integrity and ethics.\n\nThe esteemed lectureship is an annual event to recognize Dr. Waggoner’s enormous contributions to the Michigan Medicine medical center and to the profession\, and to promulgate his interest in medical ethics.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Susan L. Siegfried\, Denise Riley Collegiate Professorship in the History of Art and Women's Studies\, Inaugural Lecture
DESCRIPTION:This lecture looks at the early nineteenth century\, a sort of “pre-theoretical” moment in which a new modern visual culture of fashion was emerging whose parameters and defining characteristics were not yet graspable.  It is an intriguing moment for us\, as we too are caught up in a world of rapidly changing media imagery and commercial practices that elude clear definition.  We see exposed in early nineteenth century fashion culture more clearly than in later cultural theories the different\, not necessarily compatible\, levels at which such a culture operates\; the sometimes conflicting values it brings into play\; and the different temporalities both sustaining and disrupting it.

SUMMARY:Performance:The War and Treaty
DESCRIPTION:As The War and Treaty\, Michael and Tanya Trotter serve up healing and pain robbing with freewheeling joy on their new full-length album\, \"Healing Tide.\" Funky bass lines\, keys\, lap steel\, acoustic strings\, and stripped-down percussion create a swampy Southern soul bed for the couple’s transcendent vocals. A tour-de-force produced by Buddy Miller\, the collection swaggers with confidence only gained by artists who are wholly\, proudly\, themselves. Michael is a wounded warrior who found his voice while serving in Iraq\, when he was pulled from the frontlines to write songs for the fallen. Tanya is a lifelong artist\, drawn to singing’s power to take another’s pain away. “You have to have a deep place of love within yourself to be vulnerable\,” Tanya says. “With The War and Treaty\, we allow people to see two people that are not perfect. We get on stage. We sweat. We’re overweight. We yell. We get ugly\, we scream! My hair comes loose. We’re vulnerable––naked––in front of people\, and it’s a chain reaction. It allows them to be vulnerable\, too.” The War and Treaty’s music and stories bring tears and goosebumps\, but ultimately\, more is at work. “I want people to feel like we care\,” Michael says. “When you think about artists\, you don’t think about that.” He pauses and grins broadly. “But that’s the way I want the world to feel about The War and Treaty.” Songwriter Courtney Marie Andrews opens the show.
