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+

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Blind House: Utopia and Dystopia in the Age of Radical Transparency
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: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: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:Cosmogonic Tattoos
DESCRIPTION:EXPANDING OUR UNDERSTANDING OF A MUSEUM AS A CULTURAL REPOSITORY\n \nIn celebration of the University of Michigan’s Bicentennial in 2017\, artist and distinguished U­–M art professor Jim Cogswell was invited to create a series of public window installations in response to the holdings of the University of Michigan Museum of Art and the Kelsey Museum of Archaeology. For this visionary project\, the artist adhered a procession of vivid images to the glass walls of the museums in a rhythmically evocative narrative\, based on reassembled fragments from a diverse range of artworks in both museums' permanent collections.  The juxtaposed images address our shared histories and experiences while connecting the viewer to the origins and meaning of objects and their power to shape knowledge\, memory\, and identity. By leveraging the buildings’ unique architecture\, the artist expands our understanding of a museum as a cultural repository and highlights the significant role of these institutions in the life of the campus community.  Cosmogonic Tattoos is on view at the Kelsey Museum of Archaeology through May 2\, 2018 and UMMA through June 2\, 2019.\n \n#CosmogonicTattoos\n\nLead support for Cosmogonic Tattoos is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost. Additional support for the artist's project is provided by the University of Michigan Bicentennial Office and the Penny W. Stamps School of Art and Design.\n

Johnson (MA '97 Econ\, PhD '02 Econ)\, Associate Professor & NBER\, University of California\, Berkeley & Goldman School of Public Policy.\n\nAbout the book:\n\nWe are frequently told that school integration was a social experiment doomed from the start. But as Rucker C. Johnson demonstrates in Children of the Dream\, it was\, in fact\, a spectacular achievement. Drawing on longitudinal studies going back to the 1960s\, he shows that students who attended integrated and well-funded schools were more successful in life than those who did not — and this held true for children of all races.\n\nYet as a society we have given up on integration. Since the high point of integration in 1988\, we have regressed and segregation again prevails. Contending that integrated\, well-funded schools are the primary engine of social mobility\, Children of the Dream offers a radical new take on social policy. It is essential reading in our divided times.\n\nFor more info\, visit https://www.basicbooks.com/titles/rucker-c-johnson/children-of-the-dream.\n\nAbout the author:\n\nRucker C. Johnson is an Associate Professor in the Goldman School of Public Policy at the University of California\, Berkeley\, and faculty research associate at the National Bureau of Economic Research. As a labor economist who specializes in the economics of education\, Johnson’s work considers the role of poverty and inequality in affecting life chances.\n\nJohnson was one of 35 scholars to receive the prestigious 2017 Andrew Carnegie Fellowship. His research has appeared in leading academic journals\, featured in mainstream media outlets\, and he has been invited to give policy briefings at the White House and on Capitol Hill. His forthcoming book\, Children of the Dream: Why School Integration Works\, will be published by Basic Books & the Russell Sage Foundation Press in April 2019.\n\nJohnson is committed to advance his scholarly agenda of fusing insights from multiple disciplinary perspectives to improve our understanding of the causes\, consequences\, and remedies of inequality in this country. Johnson earned his Ph.D. in economics at the University of Michigan. At UC-Berkeley (2004-present)\, he teaches graduate and undergraduate courses in applied econometrics and topical courses in race\, poverty & inequality.\n\nHosted by the Gerald R. Ford School of Public Policy and co-sponsored by Education Policy Initiative.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Applied Physics Seminar: Spike patterns of neuronal populations in the hippocampus during wake and sleep
DESCRIPTION:My lab is interested in the role that neuronal firing patterns play in the encoding\, storage\, transfer and retrieval of information by the brain. To study this question\, we focus on in-vivo extracellular recordings and computational analyses of spike trains from up to 100 neurons from the hippocampus and cortex during activity and sleep\, combined with optogenetic and chemogenetic manipulations. In this talk\, I will discuss the distinct patterns that we see in these spike trains on multiple timescales and how they change during and across different brain network states. Because these activities are found in the hippocampus\, I will discuss their relationship to memory. Finally\, I will describe current efforts to evaluate the temporal structure in neuronal spike trains using unsupervised machine learning by hidden Markov models.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:HET Brown Bag | Relic Neutrino Decoupling in Standard and Non-Standard Scenarios
DESCRIPTION:When the Universe was from about 1 second to 1 minute old\, many interesting processes took place. On the one hand\, weak interactions became inefficient and relic neutrinos decoupled from the cosmic plasma. And\, at the far end\, Big Bang Nucleosynthesis kicked off and the first light nuclei were formed. In between\, electrons and positrons annihilated into photons\, effectively reheating them with respect to the already decoupled neutrinos. The outcome of all these processes can affect the evolution of the Universe from that time until what we know today. In this talk I will focus on the decoupling process of relic neutrinos\, starting with the standard scenario in which we properly accounted for flavour oscillations. Then I will explain how the effective number of relativistic species\, also known as effective number of neutrinos (Neff) is modified assuming some non-standard scenarios. In this way\, comparing the standard value of Neff with present and future observations we can get some insight about physics beyond the Standard Model\, from the presence of non-standard interactions in the neutrino sector to the possibility of having an extra (sterile) neutrino species.

SUMMARY:Presentation:Defense Dissertation: Advances in Disjunctive and Time-Optimal Predictive Control Methods
DESCRIPTION:Richard Sutherland\nPhD Candidate\nAerospace Engineering\n\nDisjunctive Sensing and Control (DSC) arose from a complication when working on a small satellite attitude control. Time-optimal waypoint-following model predictive control (MPC) was inspired by missions such as fast-slewing imaging spacecraft\, which must capture as many ground images as possible before their orbit and the Earth's rotation move the target out of line of sight. In this work\, novel solution approaches to both problems are developed and simulations are presented to illustrate effectiveness in implementation.\n\nThe satellite problem is presented\, then a more general switched controller and estimator system is analyzed that activates one subsystem at the expense of the other. Conditions are derived to construct periodic switching sequences that guarantee eventual satisfaction of probabilistic state and error covariance chance constraints.\n\nThe time-optimal waypoint problem is described in detail and a Mixed-Integer Linear Program (MILP) solution approach proposed. The ability to handle multiple waypoints\, exclusion zones\, and flexible mode dynamics are demonstrated. As the time-optimal solutions are in general non-unique\, a secondary objective function is added. This secondary optimization problem is chosen to be convex\, and so yields a unique solution\, which also is shown to restore Lyapunov stability to the equilibrium.\n\nDissertation Committee:\n   Co-Chair: Prof. Anouck Girard\n   Co-Chair: Prof. Ilya Kolmanovsky\n   Cognate: Prof. Anthony Bloch\n   Member: Dr. Frederick Leve\n   Member: Dr. Christopher Petersen

DESCRIPTION:Using an interdisciplinary lens\, the exhibit explores the heterogeneity in the contours of brown narratives among South Asians in the Midwest. Although there is an emerging interest in the social construction of brownness on its own terms\, most of such explorations are situated either in the East or West Coast. Rarely have the narratives of brownness in the Midwest been explored. The Midwest\, particularly Ann Arbor and the greater Detroit area\, has a sizable population of South Asians who work in a variety of blue collar to professional jobs that range from motel cleaners to doctors.\n\nThis exhibit was curated by Ram Mahalingam\, Osman Khan\, and Aswin Punathamebkar.

SUMMARY:Class / Instruction:Taking on Goliath
DESCRIPTION:Is life just too complicated? Sometimes our modern life is so impersonal that it is almost impossible to get resolution when things go wrong. When you try to get assistance you go through a complex phone menu\, end up on hold for a long time\, and then don’t even get to speak to a real person. It could be an incorrect charge on your credit card\, problems with medical insurance\, appliances that break\, warranties that don’t protect you\, etc. Does this sound familiar? While we all have these issues\, Joan \n\nInstructor Joan Cohen Jones has found some very effective strategies for dealing with these issues.  Though she can’t promise perfect results every time\, she can provide approaches to help you succeed so that you\, too\, can take on Goliath!\n\nThis session for those 50 and above will meet on Wednesday\, April 17\, from 3-5 pm.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:DCMB Seminar  ||  Can cancer cells \"engineer\" regulatory pathways?
DESCRIPTION:Abstract:  Over the past few years\, small non-coding RNAs (smRNAs) have emerged as major regulators of metastatic progression.  While micro-RNAs were among the first characterized post-transcriptional regulators of metastasis\, we have now demonstrated that other annotated smRNAs\, such as tRNAs and tRNA fragments\, also impact metastatic progression.  In their capacity as master regulators of gene expression\, smRNAs play a major role in development\, normal cell physiology\, and homeostasis.  However\, they are often co-opted by cancer cells to help reprogram their gene expression landscape as the disease progresses.  Our group has recently discovered a new class of small RNAs\, which we have named orphan non-coding RNAs or oncRNAs [Fish et al\, Nature Med 2018]\, that are largely undetected in normal cells and tissues and emerge as a consequence of cellular transformation.  Because they were not previously annotated\, oncRNAs had gone unnoticed in prior studies by us and others that were instead focused on quantitative changes in the expression of common smRNA regulators\, such as miRNAs and tRNA fragments.  These oncRNAs\, which we first identified in breast cancer\, provide a pool of new biomolecules with regulatory potential that can be subsequently adopted by tumor cells to carry out new oncogenic functions.  We have demonstrated that breast cancer cells adopt a specific oncRNA (named T3p) to regulate the expression of two key promoters of metastasis.  This finding demonstrates that oncRNAs can serve as potential building blocks for “cancer-emergent” regulatory pathways.  We posit that oncRNA-mediated regulatory interactions add a new layer of complexity to gene regulation in cancers.\n\n3:30 pm to 4:00 pm - Light refreshments in Atrium Hall\, Palmer Commons\n4:00 pm to 5:00 pm - Lecture in Forum Hall\, Palmer Commons

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Department Colloquium | Memory\, directed aging and Nature's greed\n
DESCRIPTION:In a crystal with only one atom per unit cell\, all atoms play the same role in producing the solid's global response to external perturbations.  Disordered materials are not similarly constrained and a new principle emerges: independence of bond-level response.  This allows one to drive the system to different regimes of behavior by successively removing individual bonds.  We can thus exploit disorder to achieve unique\, varied\, textured and tunable global response or long-range interactions inspired by allosteric behavior in proteins.  While this approach is successful for systems with only a few degrees of freedom\, it is difficult to scale up the number of elements to be controlled or scale down the size of the individual components.  However\, because a material has a memory of under what conditions it has been aged\, we can direct the aging using Nature's greedy algorithms to achieve a variety of mechanical functionalities.\n

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Fourth Annual DISC Distinguished Lecture. “More Perfect”: A Politics of Empathy in a Challenging American Moment
DESCRIPTION:“We\, the People\, in order to form a more perfect union.” Those are the first eight words of the preamble of our Constitution\, the foundation of our system of government and politics. When I ran for Governor in Michigan\, I aimed to advance universal healthcare\, a sustainable energy system\, access to public goods and services\, and against corporate capture of our economy. And yet the focus was nearly always on my name\, my faith\, and my ethnicity—that I could be “first Muslim Governor.” In union halls\, living rooms\, and town watering holes across Michigan\, I had the opportunity to listen to and learn from Michiganders—as a millennial\, Muslim-American candidate. In this talk\, I reflect on the roles of identity and ideals in our current political moment. I argue for a politics of empathy\, that centers our actions on the systems of oppression\, rather than its symbols\, and embrace the responsibility to speak truth to power\, only after we’ve learned to empathize with pain. I center these in what it means to be “more perfect\,” advancing mutual aims from diverse perspectives in a pluralistic society. \n\nNamed “The new Obama” by The Guardian\, Dr. Abdul El-Sayed is a physician and public health expert who ran to be the first Muslim-American governor of Michigan. His campaign excited Americans\, with his progressive focus on public health\, education\, diversity\, and dialogue. Before running for governor\, El-Sayed served as Health Commissioner in Detroit\, where he rebuilt Detroit’s Health Department after it had been privatized during the city’s municipal bankruptcy.\n\nPrior to his work in public service\, El-Sayed was tenure-track faculty member at Columbia University’s Department of Epidemiology\; director of the Columbia University Systems Science Program\, and co-director of Global Research for Population Health. El-Sayed holds a doctorate in public health from Oxford University\, where he was a Rhodes Scholar\, as well as an MD from Columbia University. He graduated with Highest Distinction and Phi Beta Kappa from the University of Michigan. At graduation\, El-Sayed was selected to deliver the Student Commencement Address alongside President Clinton\, who said of him\, “I just wish every person in the world could have heard you speak today.” \n\nFor full bio\, visit http://myumi.ch/6k4q8.\n\nThe Digital Islamic Studies Curriculum (DISC) aims to provide students with global perspective on Islam and the Muslim world by coordinating an Islamic studies curriculum across the Big Ten via synchronous videoconferencing and distance learning technology. DISC is supported by the Andrew W. Mellon Foundation and housed at the U-M International Institute. The Annual DISC Distinguished Lecture features a prominent scholar or public figure speaking about issues related to Islamic studies. \n\nOrganized by the Digital Islamic Studies Curriculum (DISC)\, with support from the Global Islamic Studies Center\, Center for Middle Eastern and North African Studies\,  Interdisciplinary Islamic Studies Seminar\, and International Institute.\n\nIf you are a person with a disability who requires an accommodation to attend this event\, please reach out to digital.islam@umich.edu at least 2 weeks in advance of this event.

SUMMARY:Other:Radical reactions for control freaks: New synthetic methods involving aryl radicals and strong C–F bonds
DESCRIPTION:                                                                        Over the past few years\, our group has utilized photoredox catalysis to access highly-reactive radical intermediates. Our broader aims are centered on utilizing these intermediates to deliver structural motifs that are commonly found in drugs and agrochemicals. This lecture will include recent findings that have enabled us to overcome inherent difficulties in aryl radical reactivity\, allowing for the development of highly chemoselective and switchable processes. Importantly\, these studies have enabled the development of many other selective processes\, including strategies for peptide functionalization and activation of very strong C–F bonds. \n                                                \n                       \n                                                \n                       \n                                                \n                       \n                                                \n                       \n                                                \n                       \n                        \nNathan Jui (Emory University)

SUMMARY:Other:Author's Forum Presents \"Let Me Sing and I'm Happy\": A Conversation with Joan Morris and Daniel Herwitz
DESCRIPTION:Mezzo-soprano Joan Morris and U-M Professor Daniel Herwitz discuss Morris’ new book \"Let Me Sing and I’m Happy: The Memoir and Handbook of a Singing Actress.\" Followed by Q & A.\n\nAbout the book:\nLet Me Sing and I’m Happy: The Memoir and Handbook of a Singing Actress by Joan Morris is the history of an actress who sings popular songs. It is also a handbook detailing an approach to bringing the song to life. Author Morris writes “For forty years I’ve been privileged to sing the greatest songs from our American musical theater history – Kern\, Berlin\, Gershwin\, Porter\, and Rodgers and Hart. I was fortunate to find a musical partner\, William Bolcom\, who felt the same way\, who helped me illuminate and bring to life the history and drama in each song. Our approach gained us entry into the serious-music concert world. It helped us\, in Schiller’s words\, to ‘…unite that which fashion had sternly parted.’”

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
