SUMMARY:Exhibition:Gifts of presents Art\, Music & Autism: Jazz Musicians in Mixed Media by Juliette Hemingway
DESCRIPTION:In Juliette Hemingway’s work\, viewers can imagine the grumbling tones of a saxophone or the sharp lines of a trombone. The sound is inside the musicians. You may not know the details of their experience or understand it\, but it's visceral. That is what jazz is in Hemingway's work. It is the instinctual part of her life that she gives to viewers as a visual excerpt: a life that revolves around healing\, autism\, creativity and awareness. Jazz and the blue-hued musicians give you a sense of the deep-rooted experiences of her son and what it is to live with autism\, and for her\, straining to look into his secret world. Hemingway is based in Aurora\, Colorado.

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+

DESCRIPTION:\"Blind House: Utopia and Dystopia in the Age of Radical Transparency\,\" by collaborative artists Paloma Muñoz and Walter Martin\, is a razor-sharp work that brings into question our ideals of house and home\, privacy\, and safety.\n\nThe exhibition combines photographs the artists have envisioned of houses without windows as well an actual glass house planned for the center of the gallery\, revisiting the whole notion of a glass house as an example of sophistication\, luxury\, and modernism.\n\nIn a darkening an era of surveillance and the internet\, for Martin and Muñoz\,  \"Blind House\" serves as \"a metaphorical solution to the full on campaign against personal privacy.\" Read the artists' statement at http://myumi.ch/6wxbk

SUMMARY:Presentation:Clinical Science Brown Bag:  Stress\, Depressive Symptoms\, and Cognition in Older Adults
DESCRIPTION:Chronic stress is a risk factor for negative health outcomes in late life\, including cognitive impairment. The negative association between stress and cognition may be mediated by depressive symptoms\, which separate studies have identified as both a consequence of chronic stress and a risk factor for cognitive decline. Pathways linking stress\, depressive symptoms\, and cognition may also be influenced by sociodemographic characteristics (i.e.\, gender\, race & ethnicity) or modifiable psychosocial resources (i.e.\, social support\, perceived control). Using data from the Washington Heights-Inwood Columbia Aging Project\, the goal of this cross-sectional study was to enhance understanding of the mechanisms and modifiability of the stress-cognition link in a racially and ethnically diverse sample of older adults.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Art Exhibit: Householdments
DESCRIPTION:John was born in Tokyo\, Japan in 1971. His family settled in Grand Rapids\, Michigan after stays in both Japan and Iowa. After attending various universities around Michigan\, John took an education hiatus to work in a cannery in Alaska. It was there that he found his calling in the pages of American Craft while scouring the tables of free magazines at the Anchorage Public Library. He received his BFA (Furniture Design) from Northern Michigan University in 1996 and his MFA (Furniture Design) from Rhode Island School of Design in 2000. John teaches in the School of Art and Design at Eastern Michigan University. John has recently exhibited work at the Muskegon Museum of Art\, the Midland Center for the Arts\, the Grand Rapids Art Museum\, and the Marshall Fredericks Sculpture Museum. He lives in Ann Arbor and maintains a studio in his home.\n\n<<>><<>><<>> Householdments <<>><<>><<>><<>><<>>\nWhile I don’t literally remember my earliest childhood years in Japan where I was born\, I have over my lifetime\, stitched together memories based on home movies\, family photos\, and images from my imagination. I “remember” the aesthetics of the place - objects and environments carefully made in wood\, stone\, and steel. Without necessarily conscious of it at the time\, I was dimly aware of Japanese visual composition. Things around me held an inherent logic and beauty\, a perfection made possible by keen tools\, quality materials\, and proficient makers. This three-part integration was embedded early on and continues to affect my own ongoing pursuit in object making.\n\nWhile finding my way as a young maker\, I realized where I belonged mostly because of how various studios smelled. The ceramics studio was musty and dirty\, the metals studio was acrid and smoky\, but the wood studio had an earthy aroma. My kind of place. The tools immediately felt right as well. Chisels\, planes\, and knives when sharpened properly could manipulate the material in ways I never expected. While I was clearly not a natural talent\, I quickly realized that a little bit of tenacity goes a long way. I also realized that I loved the logic for how wood parts can fit together. To build a wooden object or a piece of furniture each part depends on the fit of others. I deeply appreciate this fitting togetherness – how doors fit\, how drawers fit\, how joints fit\, how hinges fit. It all makes sense\, and this sensibility carries through to what I’m doing today.\n\nWorking in wood typically requires a high degree of planning before actual construction\, and over time I realized I craved the ability to work with more spontaneity. The work in this show reflects my wish to keep the working process a bit more flexible and intuitive.\n\nWhen starting with a sketch that I believe has potential\, I now begin to build directly\, without drawings or maquettes. I’ll constantly assess what has been built and allow myself to alter it\, continue with it\, or get rid of it and start over. I’m more interested in seeing where this process takes me than I am in finishing something precisely as planned. This results in some playfulness and whimsy that I hope is reflected in this work.\n\nThe word Householdments is an old and obscure term without modern usage that refers to furniture or things we keep in our houses. It strikes me as an odd word but well fitted to describe the objects in this exhibit. The pieces in this show are a collection of my personal householdments.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Social\, Behavioral & Experimental Economics (SBEE): Interpreting Signals: Evidence from Medical Referrals
DESCRIPTION:Abstract\nThis paper provides evidence that a person's gender influences the way others interpret information about his or her ability and documents the implications for gender inequality in labor markets. Using data on physicians' referrals to surgical specialists\, I find that the referring physician views patient outcomes differently depending on the performing surgeon's gender. Physicians become more pessimistic about a female surgeon's ability than a male's after a patient death\, indicated by a sharper drop in referrals to the female surgeon. However\, physicians become more optimistic about a male surgeon's ability after a good patient outcome\, indicated by a larger increase in the number of referrals the male surgeon receives. After a bad experience with one female surgeon\, physicians also become less likely to refer to new female surgeons in the same specialty. There are no such spillovers to other men after a bad experience with one male surgeon. Consistent with learning models\, physicians' reactions to events are strongest when they are beginning to refer to a surgeon. However\, the empirical patterns are only consistent with Bayesian learning if physicians do not have rational expectations about the true distribution of surgeon ability.

SUMMARY:Other:Dissertation Defense: Approaches for identifying biases in single-cell RNA-sequencing data
DESCRIPTION:Single-cell RNA-sequencing (scRNA-seq) involves the measurement of gene expression from isolated single cells\, with the potential to illuminate cellular heterogeneity within complex tissue samples.  However\, scRNA-seq data are subject to a large number of technical effects.  In this work\, we present two approaches that can be applied for removing technical effects from scRNA-seq data in downstream analyses.  The first part introduces different concepts of stably expressed genes with respect to true biological expression.  Different classes of stably expressed genes may capture different technical effects\, assisting in the removal of these technical effects and increasing the biological interpretability of later results.  We find that genes associated with the cytosolic ribosomal structure of cells are enriched with genes that are stably expressed in proportion to the total RNA content of a cell.  The cytosolic ribosomal genes can serve as a foundation for a gene set incorporated into normalization procedures to remove some technical effects associated with cell size.  The second part describes a procedure to analyze which genes are captured with more accuracy from scRNA-seq experiments.  The number of reads captured for each unique molecular identifier (UMI) informs how well a specific gene is captured within a dataset.  Reliably detectable genes can then be applied to downstream analyses\, correcting for additional technical effects.  Together\, these two projects provide two approaches to identifying genes that capture technical effects in scRNA-seq data and can be applied to later normalization procedures.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Using an Online Sample to Learn about an Offline Population
DESCRIPTION:A PSC Brown Bag Seminar: Big Data in Population Science - Mini-Series.\n\nOnline data sources offer tremendous promise to demography and other social sciences\, but researchers worry that the group of people who are represented in online datasets can be different from the general population. We show that by sampling and anonymously interviewing people who are online\, researchers can learn about both people who are online and people who are offline. Our approach is based on the insight that people everywhere are connected through in-person social networks\, such as kin\, friendship\, and contact networks. We illustrate how this insight can be used to derive an estimator for tracking the *digital divide* in access to the internet\, an increasingly important dimension of population inequality in the modern world. We conducted a large-scale empirical test of our approach\, using an online sample to estimate internet adoption in five countries (n≈15\,000). Our test embedded a randomized experiment whose results can help design future studies. Our approach could be adapted to many other settings\, offering one way to overcome some of the major challenges facing demographers in the information age.\nRelated Material:\nPersonal website\nBIO:\n\nProfessor Feehan's research interests lie at the intersection of networks\, demography\, and quantitative methodology. He is an Assistant Professor of Demography at the University of California\, Berkeley. In the summer of 2015\, he finished his Ph.D. at Princeton’s Office of Population Research\, and spent the fall of 2015 as a Research Scientist at Facebook.\n\nPSC Brown Bag seminars highlight recent research in population studies and serve as a focal point for building our research community.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Betty Ch'maj Distinguished American Studies Lecture: \"Soul Survivals: Black Music and the Language of Resilience\"
DESCRIPTION:In addition to the lecture\, we've arranged an informal lunch and conversation for graduate students with Professor Lordi earlier at noon.  Having written for The New Yorker\, Pitchfork\, The Root\, and the famed 33 1/3 music series\, Lordi will be discussing and answering questions about writing for a broader public.  Please RSVP here by Thurs\, Mar 28: https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLScJMQWSf2Z_NlcDgAeLkPRCJ_bCydAl9t2zSGnFs_2kpKlSqA/viewform\n\nSoul is in the air again. Each day seems to bring a new documentary\, biography\, posthumous record release\, or Lifetime Achievement Award for such artists as Aretha Franklin\, Donny Hathaway\, Nina Simone\, and Marvin Gaye. This talk asks what is at stake in the national soul revival\, and offers new ways to conceive of the music called soul\, both in the Black Power era and in the 21st century. Reading recent representations of the music alongside earlier recordings and performances\, I posit soul as a mutable legacy of collective black resilience—one that at times reproduces and at other times resists the individualizing thrust of neoliberal ideology.\n\nThe Department of American Culture has invited Emily Lordi\, an Associate Professor of English at the University of Massachusetts-Amherst\, to give the inaugural Betty Ch’maj Distinguished American Studies Lecture\, an annual event established to honor the legacy of Ch’maj\, the first Ph.D. of the American Culture program at the University of Michigan.  Professor Lordi’s public talk will take place on Monday\, April 1\, 4-5:30 at Room 100 at the Hatcher Library Gallery.  Her talk will draw from her forthcoming monograph Keeping On: Soul\, Black Music\, Resilience.\n\nProfessor Lordi is the author of Black Resonance: Iconic Women Singers and African American Literature (2013)\, and Donny Hathaway Live (2016)\, part of the famed 33 1/3 popular music book series published by Bloomsbury.  Professor Lordi has published in prominent journals such as the Journal of Popular Music Studies\, New Centennial Review\, and Palimpsest\, as well as edited volumes like The Cambridge Companion to the American Modernist Novel\, and the forthcoming  Keywords in African American Studies.  In addition to scholarly publication\, Professor Lordi has been a regular contributor to prestigious venues like The New Yorker\, The Atlantic\, NPR\, The Root\, The Fader\, and the Los Angeles Review of Books as a cultural critic.  She received a B.A. at Vassar College in 2001\, and her Ph.D. at Columbia University in 2009.\n\nAbout the Betty Ch’maj Lecture: With generous support from the Ch’maj family\, the Annual Betty Ch’maj Distinguished American Studies Lecture Series was established to honor the legacy of Betty Ch’maj.  Ch'maj\, who was awarded the very first Ph.D. in American Culture in 1961 at Michigan\, continued her career researching American literature and music\, founding the Radical Caucus of ASA\, and working to challenge systematic gender discrimination in American Studies programs.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:HEP-Astro Seminar | Physics and astrophysics at DUNE: a theorist's perspective
DESCRIPTION:Deep Underground Neutrino Experiment\, which is being actively developed by an international collaboration of 1\,000+ researchers from 30+ countries\, will be a multi-decade physics program. The experiment will carry out precision oscillation measurements in the neutrino beam created at Fermilab\, look for nucleon decay\, and be ready to capture a burst of neutrinos from a galactic core-collapse supernova. Theoretical input is essential for many aspects of this program. In the first part of the talk\, I will discuss some relevant aspects of the neutrino-nucleus cross section physics and related questions about measuring neutrino energy at DUNE. In the second part\, I will focus on the astrophysical capabilities of the far detector. I will show that the supernova burst signal carries in it the signatures of physical processes taking place close to the collapsed core. If we know what to look for\, we can learn about the conditions in the neutrino-driven wind and the impact of collective flavor oscillations.\n

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Inaugural Lecture: Honoring Professor Robert M. Sellers on his Appointment to the Charles D. Moody Professorship in Psychology
DESCRIPTION:In his seminal work\, \"Souls of Black Folk\"\, W. E. B. DuBois (1903) suggested the only way that African Americans can develop healthy self-concepts within American society is to come to \"an understanding\" within themselves regarding the duality of their status as African and American. We argue that the nature of \"this understanding\" varies across African Americans. Our research has attempted to explicate and describe the role that race plays in the psychological lives of African Americans. This research has focused on the racial identities that African Americans hold\, the processes by which African Americans transmit attitudes and beliefs about the meaning of race across generations to their children\, as well as documenting their experiences with racial discrimination and the consequences of such experiences. Our research program has attempted to place African American's experiences at the center and explicitly recognize their humanity as core assumptions of our analyses. The current presentation provides a brief overview of our work. In doing so\, we also honor the legacy of Prof. Charles D. Moody.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Bookmarks: Speculating the Futures of the Book and Library
DESCRIPTION:A multi-venue exhibition of site-specific installations\, performances\, interventions\, and events by University of Michigan faculty\, staff\, and students\, Bookmarks: Speculating the Futures of the Book and Library is curated by Guna Nadarajan\, dean of the Penny W. Stamps School of Art & Design at the University of Michigan\, in partnership with the University of Michigan Library. The exhibition will be located in several locations within Shapiro Undergraduate Library\, Hatcher Graduate Library\, and the Art\, Architecture & Engineering Library. \n\nThe continued proliferation of digital formats and systems for the embodiment\, distribution\, and delivery of knowledge increasingly displace the book as form. As a result\, the spacial limitations of libraries are challenged. The value of the book and the function of the library demand cultural attention. In this moment\, we ask ourselves: what is the future of the library? What is the future of the book? This exhibition seeks to instigate and showcase creative responses to the challenges to the book and the library in the forms we have inherited as well as to project ways of reimagining futures for/of books and libraries.\n\nBookmarks: Speculating the Futures of the Book and Library is supported by the Penny W. Stamps School of Art & Design\, the University of Michigan Library\, the University of Michigan Office for Research (UMOR)\, and the University of Michigan Office of the Provost.\n\n
