A related installation at the U-M Institute for the Humanities Gallery can be viewed (and heard) from a sidewalk window. There will also be an installation inside the Charles H. Wright Museum of African American History in Detroit. \n\nMahama's artistic practice illustrates\, as he explains\, how art education\, art and cultural opportunities \"allow for people to find new ways to acquire knowledge\, not only of themselves\, but their histories and the places and spaces in which they find themselves.\"\n\nEnveloping the contours of a museum building or wall\, the blankets of jute fibers are meant to contrast with the monumentality of the institutional buildings and spaces they cover\, becoming remnants and traces that reference the hands of laborers\, the imprints of colonialism and the interference of Britain and the U.S. in Ghanaian history.\n\nThe project marks the first outdoor exhibition of Mahama's work in the United States. It is responsive to the present moment\, offering students and the broader community the opportunity to engage with the arts in a public space at a time when gatherings inside buildings and museums are limited.\n\nOct. 1-23: Large-Scale Public Art Installation\, U-M Museum of Art\, 525 S.

For those who purchased before 12/15\, you will have access to view the film until 12/31/20.\n\nSynopsis:\nAn intimate account of legendary U.S. Representative John Lewis’ life\, legacy and more than 60 years of extraordinary activism — from the bold teenager on the front lines of the Civil Rights movement to the legislative powerhouse he was throughout his career. After Lewis petitioned Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. to help integrate a segregated school in his hometown of Troy\, Alabama\, King sent “the boy from Troy” a round trip bus ticket to meet with him. From that meeting onward\, Lewis became one of King’s closest allies. He organized Freedom Rides that left him bloodied or jailed\, and stood at the front lines in the historic marches on Washington and Selma. He never lost the spirit of the “boy from Troy” and called on his fellow Americans to get into “good trouble” until his passing on July 17\, 2020.\n\n96 Minutes.

OLLI membership is not required.\n\nThere have been tremendous racial\, ethnic\, economic\, and geographic disparities in COVID-19 cases and outcomes. There are multiple causes of health disparities that pre-dated COVID-19 that have been amplified during the pandemic. We have learned multiple lessons in Flint to better understand the sources of health disparities and strategies to prevent and reduce the inequitable impact of COVID-19 on socially vulnerable communities. These lessons provide valuable insights on longer-term strategies to address health inequities beyond COVID-19.\n\nOur two speakers will discuss these lessons and more:\n\nDebra Furr-Holden\, Ph.D.\, is the Associate Dean for Public Health Integration and Director of the Flint Center for Health Equity Solutions and MSU Co-Director of the Healthy Flint Research Coordinating Center. \n\nShe is an epidemiologist and classically trained public health professional with expertise in drug and alcohol dependence epidemiology\, psychiatric epidemiology\, and prevention science. She received a Bachelor’s Degree in Natural Sciences and Public Health from Johns Hopkins University Krieger School of Arts and Sciences and a PhD in Public Health from Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health.\n\nLawrence Reynolds\, M.D.\, a pediatrician for 41 years\, has been deeply involved in health and health advocacy\, especially for underserved parts of the Flint community\, for most of his career. \n\nHe was president and CEO of the Mott Children’s Health Center\, a board member of the Hamilton Family Health Network\, president of the Genesee County Medical Society\, and many other initiatives. During the Flint water crisis\, he was a member of then-Gov. Rick Snyder’s Flint Water Advisory Task Force and the Flint Water Interagency Coordinating Committee. He is also the newly appointed health advisor to the City of Flint Mayor and is an at-large director of the Greater Flint Health Coalition. \n\nHe is a graduate of Howard University College of Medicine and a National Health Service Corps Scholarship recipient.\n\nZoom Link to join this programming: \nhttps://umich.zoom.us/j/91515351120 \nWebinar ID: 91515351120 UID:75655-19552875@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/75655 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Covid-19,Free,Leadership,Lecture,Lifelong Learning,Politics,Public Health,Retirement,Social Impact,Social Justice,Virtual LOCATION:Off Campus Location CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20201013T102753 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20201020T100000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20201020T110000 SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:U.S.-China relations during COVID-19: Finding a path forward DESCRIPTION:Join the conversation: #policytalks.\n\nPanelists:\n\nKen Lieberthal\, senior fellow emeritus in the Foreign Policy program at Brookings\n\nMary Gallagher\, Professor of Political Science\, Director of the Center for Chinese Studies\, and faculty associate at the Center for Comparative Political Studies at the Institute for Social Research at the University of Michigan\n\nAnn Lin\, Associate Professor of Public Policy in the Gerald R.

Kaleidoscope\, UMMA’s third and final edition of this exhibition series\, examines the constantly changing practices of local Detroit artists\, women artists\, and artists of color as they actively embraced abstraction’s possibilities. Their strategies dramatically transformed the practice of abstraction in a shifting American political landscape.\n\nSupport for this exhibition is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost\, the Richard and Rosann Noel Endowment Fund\, the Herbert W. and Susan L. Johe Endowment\, the Susan and Richard Gutow Endowed Fund\, and the Robert and Janet Miller Fund UID:68986-17207598@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/68986 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Art,Detroit,Exhibition,Museum,Politics,UMMA LOCATION:Museum of Art - A.

It exchanges Alumni Memorial Hall's previous focus on European and American painting for a broad mix of American\, European\, African\, and Asian art from across media\, sampling the Museum's remarkable\, disparate holdings. The installation is organized into thematic and formal vignettes that respond to the concepts and ideas resonating from an extraordinary large-scale photograph of a vacant cathedral by contemporary German artist Candida Höfer. Featuring works of art by numerous famous and not-so-famous artists\, many of them artists of color and women—including Charles Alston\, Christo\, Theaster Gates\, Jenny Holzer\, Roni Horn\, Do-Ho Suh\, Kara Walker\, and others\, Collection Ensemble reimagines the collection not as a fixed entity with one set of meanings to be unearthed\, but instead as an active\, creative\, sometimes startling source of material and ideas\, open for debate and interpretation.\n \nRead the exhibition press release here.\n \nJOIN US FOR THE GRAND OPENING AT UMMA AFTER HOURS Tuesday\, April 2 7–10 p.m.\n \nGallery talks\, live music\, and more!

In this framework\, we construct contact networks based on synthetic population datasets specific for Washtenaw County that are derived from US Census datasets. We assign individuals to households\, workplaces\, schools\, and group quarters (such as prisons or long term care facilities). In addition\, we assign casual contacts to each individual at random. Using this framework\, we explicitly simulate Michigan-specific government-mandated workplace and school closures as well as social distancing measures. We perform sensitivity analyses to identify key model parameters and mechanisms contributing to the observed disease burden in the three months following the first observed cases of COVID-19 in Michigan. We then consider several scenarios for relaxing restrictions and reopening workplaces to predict what actions would be most prudent. In particular\, we consider the effects of 1) different timings for reopening\, and 2) different levels of workplace vs. casual contact re-engagement. Through simulations and sensitivity analyses\, we explore mechanisms driving the magnitude and timing of a second wave of infections upon re-opening.\n\nThis work is based on Dr. Renardy's *paper in press* in the *Journal of Theoretical Biology* with coauthors:\nMarisa Eisenberg\, UM Complex Systems & Math (LSA) and Epidemiology (Public Health)\nDenise Kirschner\, UM Department of Microbiology & Immunology (Medical School) UID:76629-19733025@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/76629 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Biosciences,computing,Coronavirus,data,Health Data,Medicine,Natural Sciences,Public Health,Research,seminar LOCATION:Off Campus Location CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20201020T113114 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20201020T113000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20201020T125000 SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Human Capital\, History\, Demography & Development (H2D2): Structural Change\, Inequality\, and Capital Flows DESCRIPTION:To join the seminar\, please visit the following webpage. \nhttps://sites.google.com/view/h2d2/seminars UID:78689-20105425@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/78689 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Economics,seminar LOCATION:Off Campus Location CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20200927T211837 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20201020T113000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20201020T130000 SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:LHS Collaboratory-LHS as a Driver of Diversity\, Equity\, and Inclusion DESCRIPTION:Healthcare and health remain unconscionably inequitable. This year\, the disproportionate toll the COVID-19 pandemic has taken on those historically least well-served by our health system\, has highlighted the pressing societal challenge of health disparities.\n\nBeyond simply striving to do no harm\, Learning Health Systems (LHSs) have the potential to serve as forces for justice in healthcare and health\; indeed\, they can be powerful drivers of diversity\, equity\, and inclusion. LHSs are anchored in multi-stakeholder consensus Core Values that explicitly incorporate principles such as inclusiveness\, transparency\, and accessibility.

The goal of the Wolf lab is to understand synaptic mechanisms that maintain this persistent vulnerability to relapse. \n\nMost of our studies use the incubation of craving model. Incubation refers to the progressive increase in cue-induced craving that develops after discontinuing drug self-administration. Craving remains at high (incubated) levels for months. Incubation of craving also occurs in humans. \n\nOur work has focused on excitatory synapses in the nucleus accumbens\, a key brain region for motivated behavior. My talk will describe published and unpublished work showing profound alterations in all of the major glutamate receptors in the NAc (AMPA\, NMDA and metabotropic glutamate receptors) after incubation of cocaine craving and the role of protein translation in mediating this plasticity.

See the webinar registration link below.\n \n In this talk\, Professor Makley thinks through the implications of her collaborative work with Tibetans in northern Amdo (Qinghai province) to tell\, hear\, see and record stories of the late tenth Panchen Lama (1938-1989)\, the controversial yet beloved Buddhist figure who returned to Amdo in the early 1980s after fourteen years of Maoist detention in a series of triumphant\, recuperative tours of rural Tibetan regions. To this day\, the absent presence of the tenth Panchen Lama looms large in those regions\, where Tibetans lament the loss of his advocacy and voice amidst intensifying state-led development pressures. She takes up Uradyn Bulag's critique to reject the positivist\, textualist\, and statist premises of \"oral history\" in favor of a linguistic anthropological approach to narrative as a multimodal and dialogic process of (dis)embodying selves and others in spaces and times. Professor Makley asks\, in the context of intensifying surveillance and central state-led censorship\, can our Tibetan interlocutors' awkward silences and earnest affirmations\, the un- or under-said of their stories about the tenth Panchen Lama\, be taken as a politics of refusal that\, in the telling\, itself works to re-constitute his fugitive presence\, and by proxy that of a Tibetan sociality and future currently being erased?\n\nZoom Registration Link: https://umich.zoom.us/webinar/register/WN_a6dgE3GhRcqeCnlegYA7kA\n \n Charlene Makley is Professor of Anthropology at Reed College in Portland\, Oregon. Her work has explored the history and cultural politics of state-building\, state-led development and Buddhist revival among Tibetans in China's restive frontier zone (SE Qinghai and SW Gansu provinces) since 1992. Her analyses draw especially on methodologies from linguistic and economic anthropology\, gender and media studies\, and studies of religion and ritual that unpack the semiotic and pragmatic specificities of intersubjective communication\, exchange\, personhood and value. Her first book\, \"The Violence of Liberation: Gender and Tibetan Buddhist Revival in Post-Mao China\,\" was published by University of Californian Press in 2007. Her second book\, \"The Battle for Fortune: State-Led Development\, Personhood and Power among Tibetans in China\,\" published in 2018 by Cornell University Press and the Weatherhead East Asia Institute at Columbia University\, is an ethnography of state-local relations in the historically Tibetan region of Rebgong (SE Qinghai province) in the wake of China's Great Open the West campaign and during the 2008 military crackdown on Tibetan unrest. The book brings anthropological theories of states\, development and personhood into dialogue with recent interdisciplinary debates about the very nature of human subjectivity\, agency\, and relations with nonhuman others (including deities).\n \n For more information about her research projects\, publications\, courses\, and media archives\, visit her website: http://academic.reed.edu/anthro/makley/index.html\, or her Academia.edu page: https://reed.academia.edu/CharleneMakley.

The course will cover topics including amino acids\, proteins\, ATP and energy transformation\, carbs and fats\, hormones\, neurotransmitters\, and many others. This will provide the background for Part 2 immediately following\, comprising the final 13 lectures on molecular biology and covering topics such as DNA\, RNA and protein building\, as well as genetic diseases and cancer. Craig Stephan is a retired industrial physicist who has led many previous OLLI courses including The Science of Climate Change\, Cosmology\, The Aging Brain\, Music and the Brain\, and Astrophysics. The course will bring in UM experts from time to time to answer questions. *See www.thegreatcourses.com/ courses/biochemistry-and-molecular-biology- how-life-works.html. (I found the course preview a little off-putting\, but the actual lectures are much better\, and Prof. Ahern\, with the aid of some good graphics\, does a very good job of explaining a complex subject.)\n\nThis study group will be held on Tuesdays from October 20 through January 12. \n\nPre-registration is required via the OLLI website or phone.

It was the first legislation for women’s voting rights. Not until the passage of the Voting Rights Act in 1965 were voting rights of ALL women protected and enforced\, and intimidation tactics progressively eliminated.  The Get Out the Vote: Empowering the Women’s Vote poster campaign\, organized by AIGA in partnership with the League of Women Voters\, commemorates this milestone. A core group of invited women of design submitted the first 65 non-partisan posters\, to launch the initiative with their vision and voices. Through the posters\, these women joined forces to collectively contribute to dialogue in design and society. This moment in history is an incredible opportunity to catalyze women in design\, voting rights\, citizenship\, community\, and diversity. The collection aspires to not only support present day voter participation\, but to also serve as a backdrop for discourse and examination of the history of voting rights and women’s fight for equality.  The poster initiative continues at aiga.org/vote\, where AIGA members can contribute posters to motivate the American public to register and turn out to vote in the 2020 general election\, as well as local elections to come. Posters are available for free download online.\n\nThe Get Out the Vote: Empowering the Women’s Vote exhibition at Stamps Gallery includes a selection of the 65 posters chosen by a committee of Stamps faculty\, students\, and staff including Nicholas Dowgwillo\, Eloise Janssen\, Keesa V. Johnson\, Francis Nunoo-Quarcoo\, Endi Poskovic\, Destini Riley\, and Stamps Gallery.

After Lewis petitioned Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. to help integrate a segregated school in his hometown of Troy\, Alabama\, King sent “the boy from Troy” a round trip bus ticket to meet with him. From that meeting onward\, Lewis became one of King’s closest allies. He organized Freedom Rides that left him bloodied or jailed\, and stood at the front lines in the historic marches on Washington and Selma. He never lost the spirit of the “boy from Troy” and called on his fellow Americans to get into “good trouble” until his passing on July 17\, 2020.\n\n96 Minutes.

Intentionally minimal\, each image distills an interaction\, traumatic incident\, or power imbalance into an accessible visual narrative. Recognizable objects such as chairs\, roots\, ladders\, or spotlights set the stage for the story to unfold. Events are captured midstream\, suspended in time like a felt film still.\n\nThe exhibition is inspired\, in part\, by the courage\, testimony\, and experiences of women (like Christine Blasey Ford) who publicly report assault\, harassment\, or misconduct. The #MeToo movement gave voice to thousands of women to tell their personal stories\, but also exposed a hostile backlash meant to silence them. The title\, “Real and Imagined\,” is a deliberate contradiction\; if one is true\, the other must not be. In practice\, however\, both terms are used to reference a woman’s testimony and determine how it is publicly interpreted. Her account is accepted as truthful by many and simultaneously dismissed as imaginary by the court of public opinion: “her memory is wrong\,” “she imagined it.”\n\nThe works in “Real and Imagined: Fabric Works and Video Animations” make difficult conversations and relationships tangible by stripping them down to their essentials.\n\nWordless physical gestures highlight the psychological and emotional forces at play behind even the smallest of interactions.\n\nBiography\nHeidi Kumao has created award-winning experimental films\, video installations\, cinema machines\, electronic clothing\, and kinetic sculptures. She has exhibited her work in solo and group exhibitions nationally and internationally including shows at Art Science Museum Singapore\, Centre de Cultura Contemporània de Barcelona\, Fundació Joan Miró (Barcelona)\, and Museu da Imagem e do Som (São Paulo). She has received fellowships from the Creative Capital Foundation\, the Guggenheim Foundation\, and the New York Foundation for the Arts. She is a professor at the Stamps School of Art & Design at the University of Michigan.\n\nFall 2020 Hours and Policies\nBeginning September 15\, 2020\, Stamps Gallery will be open to University of Michigan faculty\, staff\, and students on Tuesdays and Fridays from 2-7 pm.\nAll visitors must have a valid M-Card to enter Stamps Gallery.

Stamps School of Art & Design.\n\nStamps Gallery is an incubator and lab for contemporary artists and designers to explore ideas and projects that catalyze positive social change. As the pandemic grips our nation it has exposed the social\, political\, and economic disparities that have disproportionately impacted Black\, Indigenous\, and People of Color. The world witnessed in horror and sadness the meaningless loss of African American lives with George Floyd\, Breonna Taylor\, Ahmaud Arbery\, among many others that we will never know. National and international outcries brought people together from multiple races\, genders\, and generations - on social media and in the streets - to publicly demand an end to police brutality\, structural racism\, and emphasizing that Black Lives Matter. What is the role of a university gallery in this time of crisis? How can we foster an inclusive platform for the stakeholders in our community to voice their ideas and foster a community based on equality\, belonging\, respect? We found inspiration in the thoughtful words of renowned civil rights leader and Congressman John Lewis (1940-2020) who wrote\, “My fellow Americans\, this is a special moment in our history. Just as people of all faiths and no faiths\, and all backgrounds\, creeds\, and colors banded together decades ago to fight for equality and justice in a peaceful\, orderly\, non-violent fashion\, we must do so again.” His powerful words are a reminder for all of us - present and future generations to stay hopeful\, proactive\, and resilient in our collective efforts to end racial discrimination and foster a true democracy. \n\nIn this spirit\, Stamps Gallery invited the undergraduate and graduate students at Penny W. Stamps School of Art & Design\, to design posters and make videos to respond and contemplate what each of us can do to build a stronger community\, one that is based on the values of racial equality\, justice and belonging. How can we acknowledge our own biases\, learn from each other\, and listen to the voices of those that have been silenced? We are at a pivotal moment in our history as the pandemic radically transforms everyday life. Through this exhibition Stamps Gallery asks the UM community to come together as artists and audiences and envision models for inclusion that are grounded in equality\, belonging and empathy.\n\nRespond/ Resist/ Rethink: A Stamps Student Poster & Video Exhibition includes work by Emily Albright\, Adriana Alcala\, Nathan Byrne\, David Forsee\, Eloise Jansenn\, Rey Jeong\, Sohyun Lim\, Anika Love\, Maggie McConnell\, Willian Minzer\, Judah Premble\, Casey Rheault\, Natalia Rocafuerte\, Jenna Scheen\, Ellie Schmidt\, Abigail Seguin\, LaKyla Thomas\, Elijah Thompson\, Benjamin Winans\, and Molly Wu.\n\nArtwork was selected through an open call by a committee of Stamps faculty\, students\, and staff including Nicholas Dowgwillo\, Eloise Janssen\, Keesa V.

We found inspiration in the thoughtful words of renowned civil rights leader and Congressman John Lewis (1940-2020) who wrote\, “My fellow Americans\, this is a special moment in our history. Just as people of all faiths and no faiths\, and all backgrounds\, creeds\, and colors banded together decades ago to fight for equality and justice in a peaceful\, orderly\, non-violent fashion\, we must do so again.” His powerful words are a reminder for all of us - present and future generations to stay hopeful\, proactive\, and resilient in our collective efforts to end racial discrimination and foster a true democracy. \n\nIn this spirit\, Stamps Gallery invited the undergraduate and graduate students at Penny W. Stamps School of Art & Design\, to design posters and make videos to respond and contemplate what each of us can do to build a stronger community\, one that is based on the values of racial equality\, justice and belonging. How can we acknowledge our own biases\, learn from each other\, and listen to the voices of those that have been silenced? We are at a pivotal moment in our history as the pandemic radically transforms everyday life. Through this exhibition Stamps Gallery asks the UM community to come together as artists and audiences and envision models for inclusion that are grounded in equality\, belonging and empathy.\n\nRespond/ Resist/ Rethink: A Stamps Student Poster & Video Exhibition includes work by Emily Albright\, Adriana Alcala\, Nathan Byrne\, David Forsee\, Eloise Jansenn\, Rey Jeong\, Sohyun Lim\, Anika Love\, Maggie McConnell\, Willian Minzer\, Judah Premble\, Casey Rheault\, Natalia Rocafuerte\, Jenna Scheen\, Ellie Schmidt\, Abigail Seguin\, LaKyla Thomas\, Elijah Thompson\, Benjamin Winans\, and Molly Wu.\n\nArtwork was selected through an open call by a committee of Stamps faculty\, students\, and staff including Nicholas Dowgwillo\, Eloise Janssen\, Keesa V. Johnson\, Francis Nunoo-Quarcoo\, Endi Poskovic\, Destini Riley\, and Stamps Gallery.\n\n\nFall 2020 Hours and Policies\nBeginning September 15\, 2020\, Stamps Gallery will be open to University of Michigan faculty\, staff\, and students on Tuesdays and Fridays from 2-7 pm.\nAll visitors must have a valid M-Card to enter Stamps Gallery.

The southern portion of the North Carolina coast has consistently provided more than 50 percent of the wild harvest in the state\, which has been driving interest in creating new oyster farms throughout the region. Simultaneously\, increased interest in shellfish aquaculture has placed pressure on resource managers making siting decisions. New farms provide an opportunity to assess conditions after farm installation\, making North Carolina estuaries an ideal place to explore the ecosystem services of shellfish farming. This project aimed to link small-scale changes around oyster farms with larger-scale ecosystem-level alterations\, and provide local assessment of ecosystem services to be considered by decision-makers.\n\nIn this webinar\, project team members will describe how two years of intensive sampling in and adjacent to oyster farms and ongoing collaboration with oyster farms and the policy community has resulted in the production of visualization tools and models that will allow resource managers\, shellfish growers\, and other end users to make better decisions when determining the locations and scales of shellfish farming operations. The team found that environmental impacts of these farms were minimal\, but that policy decisions were more complex. This finding led to an additional project examining the extent of shellfish aquaculture within the nationwide Reserve system.

Equipped with unprecedented spatial resolution\, electronic detection\, and magnetic tunability\, scanning tunneling microscopy has become an advanced tool to probe and discover the emergent topological matter. In this talk\, I will review the proof-of-principle methodology to study the elusive quantum topology in this discipline\, with particular attention on the studies under a vector magnetic field as the new direction\, and project future perspectives in tunneling into other hitherto unknown topological matter.\n\nKey references:\n\nJia-Xin Yin et al.

Using the famous wills case Dew v. Clark and Clark as a jumping off point\, this talk will explore some of the ways in which an individual’s legal personhood became\, in part\, a matter of medical judgment and the law itself became to a certain extent medicalized.\n\nJohn Carson is associate professor of history at the University of Michigan.
