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.

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well from its beginnings in the 4th century CE until its decline in the 12th-13th centuries CE\, when it was completely superseded by Arabic.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.

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.

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:52176-12520866@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:20180816T103340 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20181114T093000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20181114T113000 SUMMARY:Class / Instruction:Decisions at End of Life DESCRIPTION:The course will discuss facts and issues concerning end-of-life decisions.

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.

'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.

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.

Archaeologists have dated the tomb\, which is in Gansu province\, to the fourth or fifth centuries\, and a contemporaneous record from eastern China suggests that the scene illustrates a tragic incident involving the birth of a deformed baby and an appeal for relief from drought through an ancient practice of ritual exposure. Professor Clydesdale argues this painting sheds light on how superstition\, folklore\, and associated practices can seem to fall out of use\, but actually go underground and\, like a rhizome\, sprout over vast distances and through centuries in times of deprivation.\n\nHeather Clydesdale is a lecturer in the Department of Art and Art History at Santa Clara University in the Bay Area\, where she teaches courses on the Silk Roads as well as modern Asian art. Her research focuses on cultural exchanges and artistic innovations on China’s northwestern frontier. She holds a PhD in art history and archaeology from Columbia University and wrote her dissertation on third and early fourth century tombs in the Hexi Corridor.

We show that this is explained by the parity symmetry and its spontaneous break down by the condensation of the parity partner of the Higgs. The parity can solve the strong CP problem. The theory is embedded into SO(10) unification and the precise gauge coupling unification is achieved.

Although traditionally the subject matter of ethology\, innate behaviors offer a unique entry point for neuroscientists to dissect the physiological mechanisms governing complex behaviors and are becoming the forefront of neuroscience research with the advent of optogenetic and chemogenetic tools that allow cell-type specific dissection of the neural circuits. In the past several years\, our groups have studied the role of distinctive populations of hypothalamic neurons in the control innate social behaviors including mating\, parental care and territorial aggression. We are particularly interested in understanding how neurons underlying individual behaviors interact with each other to coherently modulate behavioral outputs in a state-dependent and adaptive manner.

For example\, there is growing belief that incorporating end-users into the research process will increase the use of resulting knowledge\, among other benefits. And\, increasingly\, funders of research are considering rules that encourage or require some form of end-user participation in the research they sponsor. But how do these changes affect the research and its use for societal benefit? Drawing upon the history of funded research within NERRS as a natural experiment\, this research examines how changes in NERRS funding shaped research practice and how closer interactions between scientists and end-users influenced the ultimate end-uses of research.

High-voltage pulses 5-10 kV in amplitude and a few tens of ns in duration are capable of producing highly non-equilibrium low temperature plasmas over a wide range of pressure – 0.1 Torr to 15 bar. In these transient plasmas\, reduced electric fields up to kTd (1 Td = 10-17 V cm2)\, are typical at the propagating discharge front that initially produces the plasma. Behind the front the electric field stays high\, hundreds of Td\, producing high densities of excited states and radicals. This results in the high efficiency of ns discharges as a trigger for chemically active sys-tems. At deposited energies of 0.5-1 eV/molecule\, high rates of energy relaxation produce fast gas heating – thousands of K during tens of nanoseconds. Excitation densities can become so high that collisions of excited species with ions\, other excited species and radicals become important. A review of plasma parameters in ns discharges\, from fast ionization waves (FIWs) at low pressure to filamentary nanosecond surface dielectric barrier discharges (nSDBDs) at tens of bars will be given. Modifications of discharges leading to high energy release will be discussed\, as well as their consequences for plasma diagnostics and potential applications.\n\nAbout the Speaker: Dr. Svetlana Starikovskaia received the Ph.D. in Plasma Physics and Chemistry in 1993 from the Moscow Institute of Physics and Technology where she was also Senior Scientist and Professor. During this time\, Dr. Svetlana Starikovskaia became one of the youngest Doctors of Science (D.Sc.) in Russia\, receiving the Russian Federation Presidential Award for Young Doctors of Science. She is now Senior Researcher (Directrice de recherche) in the CNRS Laboratory for Physics of Plasma\, French National Academy of Science. Her research interests include nanosecond pulsed discharges and fast ionization waves\; kinetics of gases and plasmas at extreme thermodynamic nonequilibrium\; kinetics of excited species and their influence of chemically nonequilibrium media and interaction of nonequilibrium plasmas with living cells. Dr. Starikovskaia is internationally recognized for her research in plasma assisted combustion for which she has written several review papers. Dr. Starikovskaia has authored more than 70 articles.\n\nThe seminar will be web-simulcast.

That discovery spawned a world-wide effort to better understand neutrino properties using oscillations of neutrinos produced in the Sun\, in the atmosphere\, at reactors\, and by accelerators. While much has been learned since then\, several important questions remain: Which neutrino is heaviest? Do neutrino properties follow a pattern or respect any symmetries? Is the framework we use to understand neutrinos complete or is there more? Do neutrinos break the symmetry between matter and antimatter? The NOvA experiment was designed to address each of these remaining questions by sending a beam of neutrinos 810 km to a 14\,000 ton detector located in northern Minnesota. In my talk\, I will introduce neutrinos and the questions surrounding them\, discuss the important factors that led to the design of the NOvA experiment and summarize the most recent neutrino and antineutrino measurements from the experiment.\n\nShort bio: Mark Messier is a Rudy Professor of Physics at Indiana University who studies the basic properties of a class of fundamental particles called neutrinos. From 2006 - 2018 he served as co-spokesperson of the NOvA experiment at Fermilab guiding the collaboration through proposal\, design\, construction\, and first results.\n\nProf. Messier began his studies of neutrinos at Boston University working on the Super-Kamiokande experiment in Japan. His doctoral thesis\, “Evidence for Oscillations of Atmospheric Neutrinos with Super-Kamiokande”\, and accompanying paper in Physical Review Letters documented the first conclusive evidence that neutrinos have a non-zero mass. This paper ranks among the 25 most cited experimental and theoretical results in high energy physics.\n\nAfter completing his doctoral work\, Prof. Messier worked on the MINOS and MIPP experiments at Fermilab as a Research Fellow at Harvard University and joined the faculty at Indiana University in 2002. Messier's early work to develop the NOvA experiment concept earned recognition with a Department of Energy Outstanding Junior Investigator award and he is a fellow of the American Physical Society.\n\n UID:57542-14211237@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/57542 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Physics,Science LOCATION:West Hall - 340 CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20181107T152234 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20181114T160000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20181114T180000 SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Distinguished University Professor Lecture\, Presented by Dr. Gordon L. Amidon DESCRIPTION:Does the much-maligned carbon dioxide\, a driving force behind global warming\, deserve its bad rap?\n\nIn his upcoming Distinguished University Professor lecture\, Gordon L. Amidon\, PhD’71\, will explore carbon dioxide from many angles\, “the Good\, the Bad\, and the Ugly.”\n\nThe talk will take place at 4 p.m. on November 14 in the Rackham Amphitheatre. The lecture and reception that follows are free and open to the public.\n\nProf. Gordon L. Amidon is the William I. Higuchi Distinguished University Professor of Pharmaceutical Sciences. His research aims to understand the gastrointestinal factors that control drug absorption from an oral drug product. \n\n“I will present a modest attempt to resurrect the image of carbon dioxide\,” explains Amidon. “While global warming and the role that atmospheric gases play in the ‘green house’ effect has received considerable attention in the scientific and public press\, I will point to the more positive role of carbon dioxide in evolution and in biology.”\n\nDistinguished University Professorships recognize exceptional scholarly and/or creative achievements\, national and international reputation\, superior teaching and mentoring\, and an impressive record of service.

Detaining Refugee Children: What’s At Stake? DESCRIPTION:The intensifying border control efforts by the Trump administration came to a head earlier this year when the authorities started aggressively attacking the integrity of families seeking asylum in the U.S.\, keeping children in detention separate from their parents. Subsequent legal battles and public debates revealed strong sentiments against the policy\, leading to a rare concession by the administration. As efforts to reunite families continue\, this panel of three experts examines the psychological\, political\, and legal impact of the policy on the families\, policy makers\, and public opinions\, asking the question of what's at stake. \n\nThis Donia Human Rights Center Panel is co-sponsored by: Gerald R. Ford School of Public Policy\, Law School\, and School of Social Work.\n \n Panelists: \n \n James C. Hathaway \n James E. and Sarah A.

DESCRIPTION:The Wallenberg Medal and Lecture program honors Raoul Wallenberg who graduated from U-M’s College of Architecture in 1935. In 1944\, at the request of Jewish organizations and the American War Refugee Board\, the Swedish Foreign Ministry sent Wallenberg on a rescue mission to Budapest. Over the course of six months\, Wallenberg issued thousands of protective passports and placed many thousands of Jews in safe houses throughout the besieged city. He confronted Hungarian and German forces to secure the release of Jews\, whom he claimed were under Swedish protection\, and saved more than 80\,000 lives.\n\nU-M awards the Wallenberg Medal annually to those who\, through actions and personal commitment\, perpetuate Wallenberg’s own extraordinary accomplishments and human values\, and demonstrate the capacity of the human spirit to stand up for the helpless\, to defend the integrity of the powerless\, and to speak out on behalf of the voiceless. The Wallenberg Medalists\, through their actions and values\, demonstrate that one person\, individually or collectively\, can make a difference in the struggle for a better world.\n\nB.R.A.V.E. is an organization of youth activists sponsored by the faith community of Saint Sabina Church on Chicago’s South Side. The group’s mission is to prevent violence and to cultivate leadership for social justice.
