DESCRIPTION:Marcia Polenberg loves animals\, each with its own unique personality\, intelligence and expressive range of emotions. Using terra-cotta sculpture clay\, Polenberg hand builds her ceramic animals\, seemingly bringing them to life. The face of each one-of-a-kind work of art expresses happiness\, surprise\, mischief\, or a free spirit. Every sculpture is glazed and fired many times\, building up a rich\, textured colored surface. Holding an MFA from the U-M Penny W. Stamps School of Art & Design in ceramics and sculpture and a BA from the City University of New York in painting\, Polenberg widely exhibits her creative works in several media: ceramics\, paint\, graphite and pastel.

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:Innovations in Ornament
DESCRIPTION:This group show of jewelry and ornaments includes the work of Roger Martin\, who tackled the subject of a raven by relying on planes and shadow lines to imbue the surfaces of the bird with personality. 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.

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: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:Written Culture of Christian Egypt: Coptic Manuscripts from the University of Michigan Collection
DESCRIPTION:The dry climate of the Egyptian desert offers an ideal environment for the preservation of ancient artifacts. As the sands of Egypt has preserved also numerous Coptic manuscripts\, the transmission of the literary heritage of Egyptian Christians can be documented quite well from its beginnings in the 4th century CE until its decline in the 12th-13th centuries CE\, when it was completely superseded by Arabic. This exhibit aims to show some of the hallmarks of Coptic literature using manuscripts kept in the Special Collections Research Center of the University of Michigan Library. Topics explored include the main Coptic dialects\; bilingualism in Egypt\; books read by the Egyptian monks\; and the works of Shenoute the Great\, the most important author of Coptic literature.\n\nThis exhibit is curated by Dr. Frank Feder and Dr. Alin Suciu from the Göttingen Academy of Sciences and Humanities. The exhibit and related programming are offered with support from the Department of Middle East Studies and the Kelsey Museum of Archaeology.\n\nJoin us for an opening lecture and reception at 4:30 p.m. on November 12 in the Hatcher Library Gallery.

SUMMARY:Presentation:Clinical Science Brown Bag - It really does take a village:  The role of neighborhood in the etiology of child antisocial behavior
DESCRIPTION:There is now considerable evidence that neighborhood disadvantage predicts child antisocial behavior\, and that this effect may be causal\, at least to an extent.  However\, the mechanisms underlying these contextual influences on child behavior remain unclear.  In this talk\, I will examine gene-environment interplay as one key possibility\, evaluating how structural characteristics of the neighborhood shape the etiology of child antisocial behavior.  The studies to be presented employed a number of state-of-the-science sampling\, methodologic\, and analytic techniques.  Results provide compelling evidence regarding a key role for ‘bioecological gene-environment interactions’ and\, when considered alongside other evidence in the field\, point to a possible role for the ‘biological embedding’ of disadvantage.  Implications and future work will be discussed.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Deluge
DESCRIPTION:Five Channel Video Installation\n13 Minutes\, 27 Seconds.\n\nDeluge is a culmination of Mendel’s ten years of work on the Drowning World project\, shooting video and stills in thirteen different countries. It depicts a variety of individual stories\, positioned with a synchronous global narrative in a way that is both personally intimate and deeply political. In all his years of responding to floods and making many journeys he has shot a vast archive of video footage\, which is fully activated in this presentation for the first time.\n\nAbout Gideon Mendel and his Drowning World project:\nGideon Mendel came of age as a photographer in South Africa in the 1980’s and identified strongly as a ‘struggle photographer’. This marked him and his subsequent career has been notable for his engagement with three of the crucial political and social issues that have faced his generation. These are the struggle against apartheid\, HIV/AIDS in Africa and Climate Change.\n\nA leading contemporary photographer\, Gideon Mendel's intimate style of image making and long-term commitment to projects has earned him international recognition and many awards. He was shortlisted for the Prix Pictet Prize 2015 and recently has won both the inaugural Jackson Pollock Prize for Creativity and the Greenpeace Photo Award 2016.\n\nHis on-going project ‘Drowning World\, explores the human dimension of climate change by focusing on floods across geographical and cultural boundaries. By highlighting the personal impact of flooding he evokes our vulnerability to global warming questioning our sense of stability in the world.\n\nThe work began in 2007\, when Mendel photographed floods in the UK and in India within weeks of each other. He was deeply struck by the contrasting impact of these events\, and the shared experiences of those affected.\n\nSince then he has endeavoured to travel to flood zones around the world visiting Haiti (2008)\, Pakistan (2010)\, Australia (2011)\, Thailand (2011)\, Nigeria (2012)\, Germany (2013)\, The Philippines (2013)\, The UK (2014)\, India (2014)\, Brazil (2015)\, Bangladesh (2015)\, the USA (2015 and 2017) and France (2016 and 2018).\n\nAs the work progressed photographing floods became both a literal and allegorical means of documenting the tension between the personal and the global effects of climate change. Each location added has intensified the narrative impact of the endeavour.\n\nDrowning World now consists of four parallel and connected narrative elements: Submerged Portraits\, Flood Lines\, Watermarks\, and Deluge.

DESCRIPTION:Are you interested in learning about Mindfulness\, but have been reluctant to attend one of our noon sittings due to the fact they are 25 minutes in length? Would you like the opportunity to try some shorter meditation sittings with time for questions and answers afterwards? If so\, then please come to one of our Introductory Mindfulness sessions. We will start with a short (5-10 minute) body scan\, followed by some discussion time\, and then follow this with a short (5-10 minute) following of your breath. You are welcome to attend as many of these sessions as you like\, but the format will be essentially the same.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:White Monastery Fragments in the University of Michigan Collection
DESCRIPTION:The Monastery of Apa Shenoute\, commonly known as the White Monastery\, situated in Upper Egypt near Sohag\, once possessed the largest Coptic library in Egypt. Unfortunately\, none of the books that belonged to this monastery have survived intact. As the manuscripts were torn to pieces and sold to various individuals\, fragments of them are scattered today in different collections around the world. The University of Michigan features prominently as one of the most significant repositories of White Monastery fragments. Using some of these\, our workshop aims to document the content of the White Monastery library\, offering at the same time a glimpse into the methods of reconstructing dismembered manuscripts out of scattered fragments.\n\nThis workshop will be presented by Dr. Frank Feder and Dr. Alin Suciu from the Göttingen Academy of Sciences and Humanities. The workshop is offered with support from the Department of Middle East Studies and the Kelsey Museum of Archaeology.

SUMMARY:Presentation:Michigan Neuroimaging Initiative:  Cognitive and Neural Mechanisms for the Benefits of Stimulus-Driven Attention
DESCRIPTION:Abstract:  \nWorking memory is enhanced for items that are prioritized via goal-driven attention.  Stimulus-driven attention\, or the guidance of attention based on the characteristics of a stimulus\, can also benefit working memory when it is drawn to relevant information\, but this mechanism is not yet understood.  To this end\, we proposed two hypotheses:  first\, that salience detection brain regions and processes would directly benefit working memory\, and second\, that working memory for information that elicits stimulus-driven attention would be improved indirectly through the enhancement of controlled processing.  To test these ideas\, we conducted two experiments using functional MRI and event-related brain potentials (ERPs).  Our results showed increased activation only in cognitive control regions associated with the encoding of salient information.  Our ERP results further corroborated this finding\, showing larger amplitude in a parietal P3 potential associated with controlled processing of target information.  Thus\, we concluded that stimulus-driven attention can benefit working memory indirectly when cognitive control is enhanced to maintain task goals.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Social\, Behavioral & Experimental Economics (SBEE): Regressive Sin Taxes\, with an Application to the Optimal Soda Tax
DESCRIPTION:Abstract:\n\nA common objection to “sin taxes”—corrective taxes on goods that are thought to be over-consumed\, such as cigarettes\, alcohol\, and sugary drinks—is that they often fall disproportionately on low-income consumers. This paper studies the interaction between corrective and redistributive motives in a general optimal taxation framework\, and delivers empirically implementable sufficient statistics formulas for determining the optimal commodity tax.\n\nThe optimal sin tax is increasing in the price elasticity of demand\, increasing in the degree to which lower-income consumers are more biased or more elastic to the tax\, decreasing in the extent to which consumption is concentrated among the poor\, and decreasing in income effects\, because income effects imply that commodity taxes create labor supply distortions.\n\nContrary to common intuitions\, stronger preferences for redistribution can increase the optimal sin tax\, if lower-income consumers are more responsive to taxes or are more biased. As an application\, we estimate the optimal nationwide tax on sugar-sweetened beverages\, using Nielsen Homescan data and a specially designed survey measuring nutrition knowledge and self-control. Our estimates imply that current city-level taxes in Berkeley and elsewhere are somewhat lower than the social optimum.

SUMMARY:Other:Developmental Brown Bag:  Cognitive development in the school context.
DESCRIPTION:ABSTRACT: Children's ability to control their thoughts and behaviors is critical for school readiness and academic success. Children are constantly expected to pay attention\, follow rules\, and concentrate on various tasks. For young students\, this means having to wait their turn to engage in activities\, raise their hands before speaking\, and resist becoming distracted by peers. Understanding how the early school context shapes the cognitive mechanisms underlying these behaviors is central to my research. Specifically\, I study the development of executive function (EF) and self-regulatory abilities\, and how they contribute to children's emerging academic skills during the transition to school. Grounded in an interdisciplinary developmental science perspective\, and by employing longitudinal and experimental methodology\, I will discuss three related lines of research related to EF development in the school context. In the first set of studies\, I will present our recent efforts towards developing and validating a new set of school-based EF assessments in young children. The second line of research will focus on the importance of EF components\, and their impact on children's academic achievement across development. I will also present our recent work examining the causal effect of preschool\, and kindergarten on children's EF growth\, using school cutoff\, and regression discontinuity designs.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Quantitative Biology Seminar | Durotaxis\, Random Walkers\, and the Electric Telegraph
DESCRIPTION:Motile biological cells in tissue often display the phenomenon of durotaxis\, i.e. they tend to move towards stiffer parts of substrate tissue. The mechanism for this behavior is not understood. We consider simplified models for durotaxis based on the classic persistent random walker scheme. Even a one- dimensional model of this type sheds interesting light on the classes of behavior cells might exhibit. Our results strongly indicate that cells must be able to sense the gradient of stiffness in order to show the effects observed in experiment. This is in contrast to the claims in recent publications that it is sufficient for cells to be more persistent in their motion on stiff substrates to show durotaxis: i.e.\, if would be enough to sense the value of the stiffness.\n

SUMMARY:Other:RNA tertiary structure and its role in molecular recognition:  lessons from self-splicing group II introns and lncRNA molecules.  
DESCRIPTION:                             The vast majority of our gene products are noncoding RNA molecules\, many of which have elaborate three-dimensional structures.  Despite the importance of RNA tertiary structure in gene expression\, the scope of our knowledge about RNA structure and molecular recognition is limited.  This is largely due to the small number of high resolution RNA structures and a paucity of studies on small molecule recognition by RNA.  To address this problem\, we have focused on understanding the molecular architecture and catalytic mechanism of group II introns\, which are RNAs that catalyze their own splicing.  We have also used the catalytic activity of group II introns to carry out high throughput screening of small molecule inhibitors\, which we have optimized and developed as antifungal agents.  These studies have been complemented by parallel studies on other long noncoding RNAs that lack catalytic activity\, with the goal of identifying approaches for understanding and targeting RNA tertiary structures within the large network of regulatory lncRNAs.                                                                                            \n                       \n                                                \n                       \n                                                \n                       \n                                                \n                       \n                        \nAnna Marie Pyle (Yale University)

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Sexual Harassment in Medicine
DESCRIPTION:The National Academies of Sciences\, Engineering\, and Medicine recently published a report on the impact of sexual harassment on the career advancement of women in academic scientific\, technical\, and medical fields. The report identifies key findings on the causes and impacts of sexual harassment in academia and makes recommendations to address and prevent it.\n\nThis event will include a summary of the report\, discussion from the report’s co-authors\, commentary from disciplinary experts\, and Q&A with the audience. A reception will follow. \n\nWelcome by Mark Schlissel\, President of the University of Michigan \n\nPANELISTS : \n- Reshma Jagsi\, Professor and Deputy Chair in the Department of Radiation Oncology at Michigan Medicine\; Director of the Center for Bioethics and Social Sciences in Medicine\, University of Michigan\n\n- Paula A. Johnson\, President of Wellesley College\; member of the National Academy of Medicine\; National Academies committee co-chair and report co-author\n\n- Timothy R.B. Johnson\, Arthur F. Thurnau Professor of Obstetrics and Gynecology and Women’s Studies\, University of Michigan\; member of the National Academy of Medicine\; National Academies committee member and report co-author\n\nREPORT OVERVIEW & PANEL MODERATION:\n- Lilia Cortina\, Associate Director of ADVANCE\; Professor of Psychology\, Women’s Studies\, and Management\, U-M\; National Academies committee member and report co-author\n\n- Anna Kirkland\, Director of the Institute for Research on Women and Gender\; Arthur F. Thurnau Professor of Women’s Studies\, U-M\; National Academies committee member and report co-author\n\nPersistent sexual harassment in STEM fields\, and its adverse impacts on women’s careers\, jeopardizes progress in closing the gender gap\, damages research integrity\, and results in a costly loss of talent. Academic sciences\, engineering\, and medicine share characteristics that create conditions for harassment\, but many findings of the report are not limited to STEM field settings. Other fields within academia can be similarly male-dominated\, hierarchical work and learning settings in which abusive cultures may form. Such environments can silence and limit the career opportunities for both the targets of the sexual harassment and bystanders\, causing both men and women to leave their fields.\n\nThe panel will offer broad discussion of use to any member of the university community or the public interested in sexual harassment in academia. \n\nSexual Harassment in the Academy Panel Discussion Series is presented by IRWG and the Office of Research\, with co-sponsorship from: ADVANCE\, The Office for Health Equity and Inclusion\, the College of Literature Sciences\, and the Arts\, and the College of Engineering\n\nQuestions or for accessibility information\, please contact irwg@umich.edu or (734) 764-9537.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:The U.S. at \"endless war\": Public policy and those who serve
DESCRIPTION:Free and open to the public.\n\nDinner from Chela's Restaurant & Taqueria will be served. Please RSVP here: https://goo.gl/forms/wnJqY5GVZTxAFmV92\n\nJoin the conversation: #policytalks\n\nFord School faculty\, students\, and staff (along with the general public) are warmly invited to join this community event as we celebrate Veterans Day and explore issues at the intersection of public policy and military service.\n\nThe United States has been at war for 16 years with no clear end in sight. Further\, over the past decade the U.S. has made an effort to shrink the size of its military--while at the same time increasing its responsibilities and engagement around the world. Meanwhile\, in the absence of mandatory service we see a growing demographic divide between policymakers who chart the course for war or peace and the people and families who bear the brunt of fighting and deployment.\n\nWith those contexts in mind\, panelists and audience members will discuss issues such as: what are the cascading effects of policy decisions on active duty folks\, national guard members\, and their families? When policies change at the top level\, what are the impacts on those who are serving? \n\nAnd what should future policy leaders understand about veterans' issues--transition to civilian life\, workforce/employment issues\, mental health and substance abuse\, demographic trends in the composition of the veteran population\, the future and long-term sustainability of Veterans Affairs\, etc?\n\n\nPanelists:\n\nU.S. Army Captain Heath Bergmann (MPP '19)\, Masters of Public Policy student at the Ford School.\n\nJan Malaikal\, Chief administrator for LSA Chemistry\, retired U.S. Army officer. MA\, Naval War College\n\nTroy Nienberg (BA '05\, JD '08)\, legislative director for U.S. Rep Dan Kildee (Flint)\, current Air National Guard officer and HH-60 Combat Rescue Pilot.\n\n\nModerator:\nProfessor Luke Shaefer\, Associate Professor and Director\, Poverty Solutions at the University of Michigan

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Opening Lecture and Reception: Written Culture of Christian Egypt
DESCRIPTION:To celebrate the opening of the new exhibit Written Culture of Christian Egypt: Coptic Manuscripts from the University of Michigan Collection\, we invite you to join us for short lectures from our two guest curators\, followed by an opportunity to explore the exhibit. Refreshments will be provided.\n\nDr. Frank Feder from the Göttingen Academy of Sciences and Humanities will discuss the reconstruction of the Coptic Bible. The Coptic translation of the Old Testament is one of the oldest Christian versions of the Greek translation of the Hebrew Bible\, the Septuagint (LXX). Manuscripts with Coptic biblical texts can be dated back to the late third and early fourth century. Thus\, the Coptic manuscripts are often older than the extant Greek manuscript transmission. Moreover\, the earliest Coptic texts show different dialectal varieties. The extreme dispersal of the Coptic manuscripts\, mainly in the nineteenth and twentieth centuries\, over about 106 different collections in Europe and North America has prevented until today a complete reconstruction and edition of the Coptic Old Testament. The Göttingen Academy project created a Virtual Manuscript Room to virtually reunify the dispersed manuscripts for a digital edition on the internet.\n\nDr. Alin Suciu\, also from the Göttingen Academy of Sciences and Humanities\, will discuss the White Monastery. Only fragments and dismembered leaves have survived from the manuscripts of the White Monastery\, which once possessed the most important Coptic library in Egypt. The vestiges of these manuscripts are scattered today in numerous collections all over the world. This lecture discusses the way in which the first fragments of the White Monastery manuscripts emerged from their cache in the second half of the 18th century to be integrated in Western collections. He will also show how scholars have virtually reconstructed the library in modern times\, and the impact of this endeavour on our knowledge of Coptic literature.\n\nThis event is offered with support from the Department of Middle East Studies and the Kelsey Museum of Archaeology.

The film includes precious footage of the former Jewish quarter of Warsaw and the people who once lived there. \n\nTicket information: http://www.michtheater.org/show/the-yellow-ticket/\n\nFrankel Speaker Series co-sponsored with Copernicus Program in Polish Studies\, Jewish Community Center of Ann Arbor and Michigan Theater\n\nPlease contact The Michigan Theater at 734-668-8397 for up-to-date accessibility information.
