SUMMARY:Exhibition:Gifts of Art presents Image Vessels: Blown Glass
DESCRIPTION:Sculptor Herb Babcock creates both monumental and human-scale work using metal\, glass and stone. In the early years of the American Studio Glass Movement (1974-1984) Babcock’s sculptural and painterly expression utilized the vessel format. By layering color — both mass and line — between gathers of clear\, molten glass\, the full compositions are viewed through the vessel as three-dimensional. Babcock is Professor Emeritus\, College for Creative Studies. He was Section Chair of the Glass Department where he taught for 40 years. He lives in Ann Arbor and built a new studio near U-M north campus in 2016.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Gifts of Art presents Impressions in Pastel
DESCRIPTION:Sharon Will’s commitment to painting is to capture the simple\, everyday beauty around her in her native Michigan and beyond. She is passionate about painting plein air (outdoors) whenever possible\, as she feels the direct observation from life is the best teacher to truly see the subtleties of light and color in nature. Working on sanded paper\, her process begins with a pastel and alcohol/mineral spirits under-painting wash to establish value and color. Soft pastel is applied in layers\, often in contrasting color and temperatures for vibrancy. Over her 35-year career in painting\, Will has won numerous national awards. She also operates a custom framing business from her home/studio in Washington Township and teaches occasional workshops.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Gifts of Art presents Mystery Train: Oil on Linen
DESCRIPTION:Gregg Chadwick grew up with the rails of America in his blood. His grandfather Arthur Desch stoked coal in steam engines before becoming a train engineer on the Jersey Central Line.

From Junior Parker\, Elvis Presley\, Bob Dylan and Johnny Cash\, to arts writers and directors Greil Marcus and Jim Jarmusch\, the enduring mythos of America and its legacy has been wrapped up in the blues notes of the song “Mystery Train”. Chadwick’s current series of paintings\, Mystery Train\, is steeped in the powerful echoes of those machine days.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:she was here\, once
DESCRIPTION:The mobility and displacement of the Black body\, from port to holding cell\, to ward and out\, is a history that is embedded in our communities socially\, culturally and geographically. Alluding to feelings of pain\, otherness\, power and triumph\, \"she was here\, once\" features work that illustrates a moment of remembrance and reflection on the women who have roamed these spaces before us.\n\nIn summer 2018\, artist Nastassja Swift organized a collaborative workshop and public performance in her home city of Richmond\, Virginia. Using a range of choreographed movement\, sound\, and solidarity\, eight Black women and girls\, wearing large needle felted wool masks\, traced the ancestral footprints of the arrival of the Black body in Richmond. The 3.5 mile walk began in Shockoe Bottom (the site of the importation of slaves into Richmond\, and one of the largest sources of slave trade in America) and concluded in the Jackson Ward neighborhood (one of the largest Black communities in Richmond).\n\nThe multi-layered piece has produced a short film\, mini documentary\, photography\, and performance masks\, on display in her solo exhibition\, \"she was here\, once\" in Lane Hall.\n\nLane Hall Gallery is open to the public weekdays from 8am - 4pm. Class visits are encouraged.\n\nAccessibility: Ramp and elevator access at the E. Washington Street entrance (by the loading dock). There are accessible restrooms on the south end of Lane Hall\, on each floor of the building. A gender neutral restroom is available on the first floor.\n\nContact Heidi Bennett\, IRWG Event Planner (heidiab@umich.edu) with questions about this exhibition.\n\nCosponsors: Department of Women's Studies\, Stamps School of Art & Design\, Department of English\, Art History\, Eisenberg Institute for Historical Studies\, Center for the Education of Women+

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:Exhibition:Exhibition | Ancient Color
DESCRIPTION:The Roman world was a colorful place. Although we often associate the Romans with white marble statues\, these statues — as well as Roman homes\, clothing\, and art — were vibrant with color. This exhibition examines colors in the ancient Roman world\, how these colors were produced\, where they were found\, what the Romans thought about them\, and how we study them today. We hope that visitors will think about what different colors mean to them\, and how these meanings compare to the roles of colors in the ancient Roman world.\n\nCurators: Catherine Person and Caroline Roberts\n\nView the online exhibition: http://exhibitions.kelsey.lsa.umich.edu/ancient-color/

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Paved with Good Intentions
DESCRIPTION:In keeping with artist David Opdyke’s previous work\, this site-specific installation serves as a critique of U.S. culture and politics. In an era of fake news and daily hyperbole\, Opdyke literally changes the picture by hand painting on 528 vintage postcards of well-known American landmarks and destinations. The postcards are assembled into a large mural--a vast gridded landscape beset by environmental chaos. Each card is placed to fit into the overall image\, and carefully modified with the gouache to show a realistically rendered piece of the overall turmoil.\n\nThe installation also features animated shorts and script-driven video\, which take place within the visual confines of one or more postcards. The animation is inspired\, in part\, by Terry Gilliam’s animation work on Monty Python’s \"Flying Circus\" and by the classical music sound effects in the Road Runner cartoons.\n\nAbout David Opdyke:\nDavid Opdyke is a draughtsman\, sculptor\, and animator known for his trenchant political send-ups of American culture. Born in Schenectady\, NY in 1969\, he graduated from the University of Cincinnati with a degree in painting and sculpture. His work is informed by the massive industrial and corporate restructuring he witnessed growing up\, namely the abandonment of the city center by manufacturing giants General Electric and ALCO. As GE shifted resources to neighboring Niskayuna\, the disparities became hard for Opdyke to ignore. Massive\, decaying factories\, an empty interstate loop\, and unemployment were downtown\; new streets\, expensive homes\, sushi and shopping malls were in the suburbs.\n\nFor 20 years Opdyke worked as a scenic painter and architectural model-maker. Ranging from intricate miniature constructions to room-sized installations\, his artwork explores globalization\, consumerism\, and civilization’s abusive relationship with the environment.\n\nThis project is supported by a grant from the Efroymson Family Fund.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:What Are Little Books Made Of?
DESCRIPTION:The Special Collections Research Center is excited to display a variety of nineteenth and twentieth century children's books made of cloth and related materials.\n\nThe market for children’s books expanded over the course of the nineteenth century\, as childhood mortality rates dropped and literacy rates rose. British and American publishers sought to create “indestructible” books that would appeal to the parents and teachers of very young children. Linen and muslin proved to be practical and appealing materials for such books\, which were usually printed with bright colors and comparatively little text.\n\nCloth books remained popular for almost a century before the cloth rationing of World War II shifted production towards heavy-duty paper substitutes\, such as “linenette.”

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:Marisa Morán Jahn: The Mighty and the Mythic
DESCRIPTION:Marisa Morán Jahn: The Mighty and the Mythic\nJanuary 24\, 2019 – March 2\, 2019\n\nStamps Gallery is proud to present The Mighty and the Mythic\, a solo exhibition of work by renowned social practice artist Marisa Morán Jahn. For the first time\, The Mighty and the Mythic brings together three key projects — CareForce (2012– ongoing)\, Bibliobandido (2010–ongoing)\, and MIRROR | MASK (2017–ongoing) — that highlight her deep and meaningful collaborations with low-wage immigrants\, caregivers\, and youth. Jahn describes her use of play and humor as essential tools that enable her and her collaborators to portray their lives with dignity\, critique power\, and build momentum within their community. Jahn’s practice is deeply informed by her own experiences growing up as a second-generation immigrant of Chinese and Ecuadorian heritage. For Jahn home was not a fixed place but an adaptation itself. Her varied vocational past as a schoolteacher\, caretaker\, woodshop cleaner-upper\, lumber hauler\, community organizer\, and now university professor and mother informs the urgency in her work to find common ground between (her-)self and (an-)other\, through the concepts of care and empathy. Each of the works in this exhibition highlights her deep engagement with the stories of everyday people\, mundane routines\, and a desire to build an inclusive society. Marisa Morán Jahn: the Mighty and the Mythic celebrates and acknowledges the daily struggles and minor victories of the 99 percent that make up the spirit of our society in the twenty-first century.\n\nArtwork by Marisa Morán Jahn: The Driver (detail)\, from MIRROR | MASK series\, featuring Darlyne Komukama. 2017\, Uganda

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:ChE Seminar Series: Jovan Kamcev
DESCRIPTION:University of California – Berkeley\n“Advanced Polymeric Materials for Water and Energy Applications: Relating Molecular Structure to Macroscopic Properties”\n\nABSTRACT\n\nSecuring adequate\, sustainable supplies of energy and water at affordable costs is an enormous challenge facing humanity. Due to the interconnected relationship between these two vital resources\, often termed the Water-Energy Nexus\, a shortcoming in one could negatively impact the availability of the other. Technologies based on polymeric materials (e.g.\, membranes and sorbents) will play a key role in addressing our water and energy needs due to their efficiency\, simplicity\, and small footprint. The success of such technologies hinges on developing new materials with improved functionality. However\, despite a longstanding interest in this research area\, significant fundamental and practical challenges remain. This presentation will focus on two such challenges: (1) the lack of fundamental understanding of the influence of polymer structure on ion/water transport in dense polymer membranes and (2) the need for materials with exceptional selectivity for neutral contaminants (e.g.\, boron) that are ubiquitous in natural waters and difficult to remove with conventional technologies.\n\nThe first part of the presentation will introduce a theoretical\, unifying framework for ion partitioning and diffusion in ion exchange membranes (IEMs)\, a class of materials that has attracted significant interest for various membrane-based technologies. The framework\, based on counter-ion condensation theory for polyelectrolyte solutions\, accurately predicted ion transport properties of IEMs from basic structural knowledge\, in some cases with no adjustable parameters. The experimental and modeling results elucidate key membrane structural properties that influence ion transport in IEMs and provide guidance on how to rationally design high performance materials. The second part of the presentation will describe the synthesis of novel porous aromatic frameworks (PAFs) with specific functionality for removing boron from aqueous solutions. Due to their exceptionally high porosity and robust chemical structures\, the PAFs exhibited high boron adsorption capacities\, remarkably fast kinetics\, and good reusability. Notably\, the boron-selective PAFs removed trace amounts of boron from synthetic seawater solutions at unprecedented rates\, demonstrating the promise of this relatively new class of microporous polymers for water treatment applications. \n\nBIO\n\nJovan Kamcev\, Ph.D.\, is a postdoctoral scholar working with Prof. Jeffrey Long in the Department of Chemistry at University of California\, Berkeley. He earned his bachelor’s degree in Chemical Engineering and Applied Math & Statistics from Stony Brook University and his master’s and doctorate in Chemical Engineering from the University of Texas at Austin under the guidance of Profs. Benny Freeman and Donald Paul. His graduate research entailed fundamental studies of ion and water transport in ion-containing polymer membranes for water and energy applications. His current research focuses on developing novel porous organic frameworks for various applications\, including selective ion removal from aqueous solutions and energy storage.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:CJS Lecture Series | Motivations of Job Crafting: Evidence from Japan and China
DESCRIPTION:This research contributes to our understanding of job crafting by investigating the role of enjoyment of work and driven to work as job crafting motivations. 154 Supervisor-Employee dyads were surveyed. Enjoyment of work and driven to work were supported as motivators of job crafting. An interaction effect was observed\, with low driven to work weakening the relationship between enjoyment of work and job crafting. Job crafting mediated the relationship between the two motivators and job performance. We add to researchers’ understanding of motivations for job crafting while making the first attempt to explore the job crafting phenomenon in East Asia. \n    \nDr. Greg Laurence teaches negotiation\, organizational behavior\, and HR in graduate and undergraduate programs at the University of Michigan-Flint. His research revolves around employee well-being\, including phenomena such as workspace personalization\, workaholism\, and job crafting. Greg earned his PhD\, MBA\, and MA in International Relations from Syracuse University. \n\nIf you are a person with a disability who requires an accommodation to attend this event\, please reach out to us at least 2 weeks in advance of this event. Please be aware that advance notice is necessary as some accommodations may require more time for the university to arrange.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:The Transition to Cultural Adaptations in the Middle Stone Age in East Africa
DESCRIPTION:The Middle Stone Age began over 300 thousand years ago in East Africa. It marks the beginning of the Revolution that wasn’t in the evolution of modern behavior. Binford characterized the transition to cultural adaptations as the development of a “culturally-constructed” environment or “niche” that was strategically exploited with advanced planning. Gamble proposed that this transition involved the development of intergroup social interaction and information exchange networks to extend the social landscape beyond the boundaries of the local home range. Cultural niche construction using social information for planning is a key feature of the transition from primate troop to human tribal organization.  I will present new archaeological evidence from Middle Stone Age sites in the Kenya Rift Valley for this troop-to-tribe transition.

SUMMARY:Presentation:EHAP Speaker Series:  Hormonal Contraceptives and Breast Cancer:  A Case of Evoluntionary Mismatch
DESCRIPTION:Abstract: \nIn the evolutionary past\, women of reproductive age rarely menstruated as they were usually pregnant or breast-feeding.  In modern societies\, the evolutionarily novel pattern of frequent menses\, and the associated increase in endogenous hormonal exposure\, is a risk factor for breast cancer.  It is unclear\, however\, whether oral contraceptives further increase or actually decrease hormonal exposure.  My collaborators and I examined variation in hormonal exposure across frequently prescribed oral contraceptive (OC) formulations with the goal of providing a quantitative comparison of endogenous and exogenous hormonal exposure.  Endogenous data came from 12 published studies of serum estradiol (E2) and progesterone (P4) in European or American women.  Exogenous data came from pharmacokinetic package insert data for seven different OC formulations.  We found that\, with the exception of one formulation\, median ethinyl estradiol (a synthetic estrogen) exposure over one menstrual cycle was similar to median E2 exposure.  However\, median exposure from progestins (synthetic progesterone) was 4-fold higher than the median endogenous exposure from P4.  Given that breast cancer risk has a dose-response relationship to hormonal exposure\, these findings are cause for concern.  Not all formulations produce the same exposures\, making these findings also pertinent to contraceptive choice.  Our results are discussed in the light of a recent Danish study on hormonal contraceptives and breast cancer risk.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:CLaSP Seminar Series - Prof. James Kasting
DESCRIPTION:Our guest for this week's CLaSP Seminar Series will be Prof. James Kasting of Penn State University. \nPlease join us! \n\nTitle: \"The Search for Life on Planets Around Other Stars\"\n\nAbstract: Planets have now been found around several thousand stars. Some of these are thought to be rocky\, and a handful of those lie within the habitable zone of their parent star\, where liquid water is stable on the planet’s surface. Two years from now\, NASA’s James Webb Space Telescope should launch\, and it may be able to do spectroscopy on transiting rocky planets around nearby M stars\, if good targets are identified by NASA’s TESS mission\, which launches a year earlier. The best opportunity to study Earth-like planets will come 15-20 years later\, however\, if NASA chooses to build one of its proposed direct imaging space telescopes\, currently called LUVOIR and HabEx. With such a telescope\, one could identify and characterize non-transiting planets around the very nearest stars. This could provide information not only about other Earth-like planets\, but also about the existence\, or non-existence\, of extraterrestrial life.

SUMMARY:Presentation:IOE 899 Seminar Series: Jing Li\, Arizona State University
DESCRIPTION:The IOE 899 Seminar Series is open to all. U-M Industrial and Operations Engineering graduate students and faculty are especially encouraged to attend.\n\nThe seminar will be followed by a reception in the IOE Commons (Room 1709) from 4:00 pm-5:00pm.\n\nAbstract: \nWhen learning a new skill\, people can transfer their knowledge about other related skills they have grasped to expedite the learning. This human ability has inspired the development of a class of statistical machine learning models called Transfer Learning (TL). TL is an excellent choice for Precision Medicine because it allows for building a robust model for each patient based on not only the data of that patient but also transferred information from other patients.  \n\nAn important problem that the existing TL literature has overlooked is “negative transfer”\, referred to as the situation of worse performance of a TL model than a model without transfer learning. We provide theoretical study on the risk of negative transfer\, which further motivates the development of a positive TL model to prevent negative transfer. This model is applied to building patient-specific models using smartphone-generated activity data such tapping\, speaking\, and walking to telemonitor patients with the Parkinson’s Disease. Telemonitoring belongs to the emerging health care platform of mHealth\, which utilizes wireless technologies to enable remote monitoring of patient conditions and timely medical decisions. \n\nAdditionally\, this talk will briefly introduce our developments of TL models in other health care applications\, including multi-modality imaging data fusion for early detection of the Alzheimer’s Disease and hierarchical modality and feature selection from neuroimaging data for subtype identification of migraine.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Webinar: New technology for old problems: Exploring the use of eDNA in the reserve system
DESCRIPTION:Environmental DNA (eDNA)\, or DNA present in an environmental sample\, is emerging as a powerful tool to detect species present in an ecosystem without having to actually capture and identify individual organisms. Fish\, invertebrates\, and other animals shed DNA\, through fragments of tissue and reproductive and waste products\, into the environment in which they live. We will present initial results from a pilot environmental eDNA monitoring program being developed and tested at several National Estuarine Research Reserve (NERR) sites in New England and Oregon. Sampling is conducted in coordination with traditional monitoring programs to validate species identification and detection limits.\n\nThis webinar is an opportunity for the research team to engage reserves that are considering eDNA monitoring\, and compare notes with other researchers and natural resource managers that are using eDNA approaches.

SUMMARY:Presentation:Chair's Distinguished Lecture: Autonomous systems in the intersection of controls\, learning theory and formal methods
DESCRIPTION:Ufuk Topcu\, Assistant Professor at The University of Texas at Austin\n\nAutonomous systems are emerging as a driving technology for countlessly many applications. Numerous disciplines tackle the challenges toward making these systems agile\, adaptable\, reliable\, user friendly and economical. On the other hand\, the existing disciplinary boundaries delay and possibly even obstruct progress. I argue that the non-conventional problems that arise in the design and verification of autonomous systems require hybrid solutions at the intersection of learning\, formal methods and controls.\n\n\nI will discuss three problems at varying levels of detail. The results in the first problem will help program autonomous systems in hours---as opposed to the current levels of days or weeks---to deliver complex missions in dynamic and adversarial environments with provable guarantees of correctness. My studies of the second problem have resulted in a series of new reinforcement learning algorithms. These algorithms---unlike conventional learning algorithms---provide strong guarantees with respect to given formal specifications expressed in variants of temporal logic during training and execution. The third problem focuses on developing verifiable algorithms for control-oriented learning that will help autonomous systems survive abrupt and possibly severe run-time damage or faults with minimal sacrifice in the mission objectives. Throughout the talk\, I will place the results in the context of aerospace applications with concrete examples.\n\nAbout the Speaker: \n\nUfuk Topcu joined the Department of Aerospace Engineering at the University of Texas at Austin as an assistant professor in Fall 2015. He received his Ph.D. degree from the University of California at Berkeley in 2008. He held research positions at the University of Pennsylvania and California Institute of Technology. His research focuses on the theoretical\, algorithmic and computational aspects of design and verification of autonomous systems through novel connections between formal methods\, learning theory and controls. He has received the NSF CAREER and AFOSR YIP awards.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Geotechnical Seminar
DESCRIPTION:Conveyance systems for drinking water to major cities are critical infrastructure components. Most systems utilize a combination of pipelines and tunnels\, which were typically built 50 to 100 years ago. Some of these systems are either susceptible to risks of rupture or failure\, or are experiencing significant operations and maintenance issues. Two examples from opposite coasts in North America are the Delaware Aqueduct in New York State\, and the Second Narrows Undercrossing in Vancouver\, British Columbia. For the Delaware Aqueduct\, a portion of the original tunnel is experiencing significant leakage below the Hudson River within a high-permeability rock mass. For the Second Narrows Undercrossing\, construction of three pipelines across the Burrard Inlet at shallow depths and in liquefiable soils put them at risk for both scour/anchor strike damage and failure during the potential large earthquakes that could occur in the area. Specific issues and technical challenges will be presented for each project.\n\nSamuel Swartz is a Principal Tunnel Engineer based out of Chicago\, IL. With more than 20 years of experience in the tunneling industry\, he has provided tunnel design on a number of challenging projects across North America\, and in Australia and New Zealand. A native of Ann Arbor\, he received his undergraduate degree from the University of Michigan in Civil/Geotechnical Engineering\, and a Master’s Degree from the University of California at Berkeley in Geotechnical Engineering.\nJake Facey is a Senior Staff Engineer based out of Pittsburgh\, PA. His work experience spans three years. In that time\, he has contributed to the design of numerous large- and small-scale projects across the United States and Canada. Jake graduated from the University of Michigan in 2016 with a focus in Geotechnical Engineering.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:ELI Winter Workshop Series: POSTER PRESENTATIONS: INTERACTING FLUENTLY WITH YOUR AUDIENCE
DESCRIPTION:We often frame poster presentations at academic conferences and symposia as “easier” and less high-stakes than presenting a paper or participating in a panel\, but poster presentations are about 10% presenting and 90% interacting with one’s “audience” of a few people crowded around the poster in a busy\, noisy conference space. So much Q & A can feel daunting\, but can also be fun and interesting to prepare for with other graduate students. In this workshop\, we will not be working on poster design: instead\, we’ll work on strategies for fluent communication with visitors to your poster. If you have a poster presentation coming up\, bring a sketch or draft of your poster so that you can practice taking questions from others at the workshop. Otherwise\, come ready to practice formulating and responding to typical question types in poster presentations.
