Mellon Foundation-funded \"High Stakes Art\" initiative. The exhibition of new and collected fiber-based art incorporates salvaged and found bits of cultural and fiber art that\, as she explains\, \"forms a discourse that is physical rather than textual.\"\n\nThanks to the grant from The Andrew W. Mellon Foundation\, we supported Sharp's work on Results and Roses during the summer of 2020\, but due to COVID-19 were forced to postpone the pop-up exhibition also scheduled for summer 2020. This fall we installed Results and Roses as a pop-up exhibition in the Osterman Common Room. Due to building security\, it's not open to the general public\, but we are thrilled to present the work online as a virtual exhibition. \n\nAbout the Artist\nSarah Rose Sharp is a Detroit-based writer\, activist\, photographer\, and multimedia artist.

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.

This year\, it seems to be an even bigger challenge\, but it is still an important skill to continuously improve. Political or personal values conversations are an important part of civil discourse\, especially if each party is willing to listen and connect with mutual respect and a goal to seek common ground.

Wright Museum of African American History and the U-M Museum of Art\, with funding from The Andrew W. Mellon Foundation\, Ghanaian artist Ibrahim Mahama explores global exchange\, commerce and the troubling histories of colonialism and slavery in the Western world. \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\nCurator's Statement:\n\nGhanaian artist Ibrahim Mahama’s installations are cumulative moments of reckoning\, mending\, and recycling. Things fall apart\, come undone. His constructions defy any notions of permanence and longevity. They are monuments to the in-between and the upending\, begging the question\, “What can we do?”\n\nMahama incorporates jute sacks—synonymous with the trade markets of Ghana where he lives and works—as a raw material. He works collaboratively with his community to complete the extensive sewing of the sacks required in preparation for his projects. For the U-M installations\, he incorporates materials from his previous seminal works over the last decade as a retrospective.\n\nThe markings\, stitching\, and signs of wear on the jute remind us of the many changing hands and endless labor behind international trade—the human toll of capitalism\, commodification\, and globalization. The fabric itself acts as metaphor for Ghana’s complicated history defined by Dutch colonialism and the Gold Coast slave trade\, British rule till 1957\, and a future de-railed by military coups post-independence.\n\nRather than grand gestures\, Mahama’s installations are humble acts of endurance. They are covert art take-overs\, subverting architecture and disrupting the pristine fascia of our institutional buildings. They hold us accountable for past trespasses. \n\nMahama is committed to offering his own country the same cultural opportunities and experiences available to those in the West. Most recently he designed and opened the Savannah Centre for Contemporary Arts in his hometown of Tamale Ghana\, contributing towards the expansion of his country’s contemporary art scene. An extension of his art practice\, the centre brings Mahama’s many visionary sketches to life\, creating classrooms in old airplanes\, a swimming pool for children’s play\, and public spaces for gatherings and the exchange of ideas.\n\nIn this pivotal year defined by Covid-19\, worldwide protests in support of Black Lives Matter\, climate change\, and our U.S. Presidential election in the balance\, Ibrahim Mahama’s work acknowledges failures and false promises\, but also the opportunities that can reveal themselves in times of crisis. \n\nPerhaps generations emerging from crisis can learn from the ghosts of the past and generate entirely new systems\, not motivated by profit or self-interest\, but by a deep commitment to the hard work ahead\, our willingness to do it\, and to the mutual space for dreams.\n\n–Amanda Krugliak\, arts curator\, Institute for the Humanities and curator of In Between the World and Dreams \n\nIn-Between the World and Dreams is a multi-venue project led by the U-M Institute for the Humanities Gallery\, in partnership with UMMA and the Charles H.

Increasingly\, researchers and higher education institutions are paying attention to college student mental health\, but less of this focus has considered the specific contextual experiences\, challenges\, and supports relevant to Black students’ mental health as they enter and navigate predominantly White institutions (PWI). College student research shows that\, along with the social and academic challenges of college experienced by most/all students\, Black students routinely report negative race-related experiences in their PWI settings - microaggressions and discrimination\; biased stereotype-based treatment\, low expectations\; and both isolation/exclusion and hypervisibility (over-monitoring as suspicious or dangerous) due to race. Black students’ racially marginalizing experiences are sometimes tied to students’ multiple identities (e.g.\, their race along with their ethnicity\, gender\, socioeconomic status\, or sexual orientations\, among other identities). Such devaluing experiences have been linked to poorer academic achievement and persistence outcomes\, but these experiences likely function to undermine mental health as well.\n\n\nNow more than ever\, a focus on Black college student mental health is critical. In 2020\, Black students are entering their college campuses (in-person or remotely) after a summer of widespread protests against anti-Black police violence and systemic racism\, sparked by public witnessing of videos depicting murders and brutalizing of Black Americans by police. Many Black students are also coming from communities disproportionately impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic\, and with the knowledge that these differential impacts are directly and indirectly due to systemic racism. Thus\, while Black students bring many personal and cultural strengths to their campuses that can be leveraged to support their positive college adjustment\, they also experience unique challenges and vulnerabilities due to racism - both on their campuses and in the broader society - that can undermine their well-being and thriving on campus. Higher education must be accountable in understanding Black student experiences and\, importantly\, acting on this knowledge to meet the goals of supporting and serving all students equitably. \n\n\nThis webinar will feature the research of three scholars actively engaged in research on the positive mental health of Black college students. All are grant recipients of the 2020 National Center for Institutional Diversity (NCID) Pop-Up Grant program cycle\, themed around Mental Health among Marginalized Communities\, and co-sponsored in partnership with The Steve Fund. Each scholar will share research findings yielded from their grant projects and outline specific implications and recommendations for research and action.\n\nModerator/Facilitator:\n\n· Tabbye Chavous\, *NCID Director and Professor of Psychology and Education\, University of Michigan*\n\n\nPanelists:\n\n· Seanna Leath\, *Assistant Professor\, Department of Psychology\, University of Virginia*\n\n· Martinique Jones\, *Assistant Professor\, Department of Psychology and Counseling\, University of North Texas*\n\n· Carmen McCallum\, *Department of Leadership and Counseling\, Eastern Michigan University* UID:78024-19955553@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/78024 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Diversity,Diversity Equity And Inclusion,Equity,Faculty,Inclusion,Mental Health,Staff LOCATION:Off Campus Location CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20201102T123958 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20201105T120000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20201105T130000 SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:CEW+ Lunch and Learn | A Roadmap to Virtual Home Learning Success: Tips for Student Parents DESCRIPTION:Click to RSVP and to receive the Zoom link by email: cew.umich.edu/events/cew-lunch-and-learn-a-roadmap-to-virtual-home-learning-success-tips-for-student-parents\n\nThe pandemic has brought many challenges for parents who have children in virtual school-at-home situations while the parents are also still working – either in the office\, from home\, and/or in school.

Music provides a place for the early theorization of sound as an active force operating in registers that are at once spiritual (accounting for the summoning of unseen gods and spirits)\, scientific (producing hypotheses regarding the principles underlying action at a distance)\, aesthetic (conceptualizing how and why people may be more or less affectively moved)\, and deeply embodied (positing figurations of the human form as a resonance chamber). In this talk\, I focus on the chanting of Buddhist sacred text in medieval Japan\, in order to excavate Buddhist theories of sound – and particularly human-produced sound – as capable of acting on and in the space-time of lived reality.\n \nCharlotte Eubanks is Associate Professor of Comparative Literature and Asian Studies at Penn State. They study the material culture of books and word/image relations\, with a focus on Japanese literature from the medieval period to the present. Their first book\, entitled *Miracles of Book and Body: Buddhist Textual Culture and Medieval Japan* (University of California Press\, 2011)\, examines the relationship between human body and sacred text in the Buddhist literary tradition\, focusing on reading as a performance-based act which bridges the text-flesh barrier. Their second book (*The Art of Persistence: Akamatsu Toshiko and the Visual Cultures of Transwar Japan*\, U Hawai'i Press\, 2020) moves to the 20th century. Through a microhistory of the artist Akamatsu Toshiko (Maruki Toshi\, 1912-2000)\, the book outlines the possibilities for anti-war and anti-colonial thought in imperial Japan. Their third book will return to the medieval Buddhist world\, with a phenomenological examination of the literary corpus of the 13th century Zen master Dōgen. Their articles have appeared in venues including *Book History\, The Harvard Journal of Asiatic Studies\, Ars Orientalis\, The Japanese Journal of Religious Studies\, PMLA*\, and *Word & Image*. Charlotte is Head of the Department of Comparative Literature\, founding president of the MLA Japan to 1900 forum\, and Associate Editor of *Verge: Studies in Global Asias*.\n\nPlease register for the Zoom webinar at: https://umich.zoom.us/webinar/register/WN_lnQ7ENyPQ_uOK9bZmgknOg\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.

The underlying mechanisms remain unclear. Emergent cell-cell interactions in the tumor microenvironment (TME) profoundly influence therapy outcomes. The nature of these interactions and their role in Ras tumor radioresistance remain unclear. Using Drosophila and human Ras cancer cells we discovered that oncogenic Ras co-opts genotoxic stress-induced p53 function to drive tumor recurrence via paracrine JAK/STAT signaling in the TME.\np53 is heterogeneously activated in Ras tumor tissues in response to irradiation. This mosaicism allows high p53-expressing Ras clones to stimulate JAK/STAT cytokines\, which activate JAK/STAT in the nearby low p53-expressing resistant Ras clones\, leading to robust tumor re-establishment. Blocking any part of this cell-cell communication loop re-sensitizes Ras tumor cells to irradiation. This finding suggests that coupling STAT inhibitors to radiotherapy might improve clinical outcomes for Ras cancer patients.\n\nSpeaker:\nYves Chiswili Chabu\, Ph.D.\nAssistant Professor\, Division of Biological Sciences\nUniversity of Missouri-Columbia\n\nYves Chiswili Chabu received his Ph.D. at the University of Oregon. He did his postdoctoral work and Fellowship at Yale University where he used Drosophila and human tissue culture models to understand how intercellular RAS signaling evolves in the tumor microenvironement. Chabu is an assistant professor at the University of Missouri-Columbia and the scientific director of the Cancer Research Center in Columbia Missouri. His research interests at the University of Missouri includes delineating therapy resistance mechanisms in EGFR/RAS-driven tumors and understanding how these signals emerge and support disease progression.

Their cumulative cost can be extreme in terms of both dollars and lives lost. While less frequent\, pandemics have also resulted in staggering losses. The loss depends not only on the severity of the effects\, but also on the vulnerability and resiliency of the affected society. The number and cost of disasters have been increasing over the last few decades\, a pattern which is likely to continue. This increase may be due both to hazards increasing in frequency\, size\, or extent\, and to an increasing vulnerability and/or decreasing resiliency of populations at risk. \n\nThis course will start with an examination of the trends and patterns of past disasters\, discussing socioeconomic factors that increase vulnerability. We will then discuss the role of corruption and government effectiveness in exacerbating vulnerability\, the differences between vulnerability and resiliency on a local scale\, and why resiliency is so difficult to quantify. Finally\, we will discuss the role of global demographics trends and changing climate with regard to future hazards and our increasing vulnerability to them. We will use the Sichuan\, China (2008)\, L’Aquila\, Italy (2009)\, and Haiti (2010) earthquakes\, hurricanes Katrina (2005)\, Sandy (2012)\, Harvey (2017)\, and Maria (2017)\, and the current COVID-19 pandemic as case studies. \n\nEric Hetland is an associate professor in the UM Department of Earth & Environmental Sciences\, specializing in earthquakes and volcanoes. Eric also develops statistical tools to tackle problems ranging from climate change to vulnerability.\n\nThis study group will be held on Thursdays from November 5 through 19. \n\nPre-registration is required via the OLLI website or phone. A link to access the study group will be e-mailed to you approximately one week prior to the first session.

However\, this is hard in practice\, due to a lack of appropriate (micro-level) economic data and limited opportunity to experiment. In Zheng et al.\, 2020\, we proposea two-level deep reinforcement learning approach to learn dynamic tax policies\, based on principled economic simulations in which both agents and a social planner (government) learn and adapt. AI social planners can discover tax policies that improve the equality and productivity trade-off by at least 16%\, compared to the prominent Saez tax model\, US Federal tax\,and the free market. The learned tax policies are qualitatively differentfrom the baselines\, and certain model instances are effective in human studies as well.\n\nThis talk will present three topics: 1) economic policydesign in the context of multi-agent RL\, 2) our two-level RL approach toeconomic policy design\, and 3) open research problems towards an AI Economist for the real world. These include key methodological challenges in two-level RL and data-driven economic modeling\, multi-agent RL\, mechanismdesign\, convergence guarantees\, robustness\, explainability\, and others.\n\nRSVP Here: https://tinyurl.com/y33tmfs4 UID:79027-20172578@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/79027 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES: LOCATION: CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20201120T123024 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20201105T140000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20201105T170000 SUMMARY:Careers / Jobs:AmeriCorps-Teach Kentucky Recruiting Experience- Special EducationContent Areas DESCRIPTION:Application Process Tips:\n\n1.

U-M Industrial and Operations Engineering graduate students and faculty are especially encouraged to attend.\n\nTitle:\nSparse Estimation: Closing the Gap Between L0 and L1 Models\n\nAbstract:\nSparse statistical estimators are increasingly prevalent due to their ease of interpretability and superior out-of-sample performance. However\, sparse estimation problems with an L0 constraint\, restricting the support of the estimators\, are challenging (typically NP-hard\, but not always) non-convex optimization problems. Consequently\, academics and practitioners commonly turn to convex L1 proxies\, such as Lasso and its variants\, as a remedy. Although the L1 models are solved fast\, they may lead to biased and/or dense estimators and require substantial cross-validation for calibration.\n\nIn this talk\, we focus on two estimation problems: i) sparse regression and ii) sparse and smooth signal recovery. The first one is known to be NP-hard\; we show that the second one is equivalent to a submodular minimization problem and\, hence\, is polynomially solvable. For both problems\, we derive a sequence of strong convex relaxations. These relaxations are based on the ideal (convex-hull) formulations for rank-one/pairwise quadratic terms with indicator variables. The new relaxations can be formulated as conic quadratic or semidefinite optimization problems in an extended space\; they are stronger and more general than the state-of-the-art models with the reverse Huber penalty and the minimax concave penalty functions. Furthermore\, the proposed rank-one strengthening can be interpreted as a non-separable\, non-convex\, unbiased sparsity-inducing regularizer\, which dynamically adjusts its penalty according to the shape of the estimation error function without inducing bias for the sparse solutions. Computational experiments with benchmark datasets show that the proposed conic formulations are solved fast and result in near-optimal estimators for non-convex L0-problems. Moreover\, the resulting estimators also outperform L1 approaches from a statistical perspective\, achieving high prediction accuracy and good interpretability.\n\nThis talk is based on the following papers with Andres Gomez & Shaoning Han:\n\nhttps://atamturk.ieor.berkeley.edu/pubs/rank-one.pdf\nhttps://atamturk.ieor.berkeley.edu/pubs/screening.pdf\nhttps://atamturk.ieor.berkeley.edu/pubs/signal-estimation.pdf UID:76453-19717149@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/76453 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:899 Seminar Series,Industrial And Operations Engineering LOCATION:Off Campus Location CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20200902T151604 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20201105T150000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20201105T160000 SUMMARY:Livestream / Virtual:The Scholar as Translator DESCRIPTION:Join Chana Kronfeld\, renowned translator of Hebrew and Yiddish poetry\, for a discussion of her scholarship and translations.

In large solar flares\, a wide range of electromagnetic waves ranging from the kilometric radio wave to the Gamma-rays are released in a short period of time and a gigantic amount of ionized gas is ejected in the coronal mass ejections. In those processes\, solar energetic particles can be accelerated to near-relativistic energies and injected into the interplanetary space. When traveling in the interplanetary space\, they impose a serious radiation hazard to human lives on the earth\, the orbiting astronauts\, spacecraft\, and our future space exploration missions. However\, the underlying acceleration mechanisms in those events and the particles’ transport process from the sun to the interplanetary space is still under debate. I investigate the behaviors of those energetic particles with observational analysis\, and model their behavior using numerical simulations. In particular\, I modeled the acceleration and transport process of energetic particles by solving the Fokker-Planck equation numerically and evaluate the temporal and spatial distribution profiles\, energy spectra\, and element abundances of energetic particles with the measurement made by various spacecraft. Because of their great impact to the space radiation environment and the growing demand for space travel and exploration\, a successful forecast of the occurrence and flux of solar energetic particles is urgent. Both numerical models and machine learning techniques are utilized in my current approach to predict the occurrence and flux of solar energetic particles.

One specific application of interest is their use in combat helmet liners to protect service members from Traumatic Brain Injuries (TBIs)\, although they are also heavily leveraged in the packing industry\, medical\, aerospace and automotive fields\, to name a few. These protective applications all have the common characteristic of dynamically applied loading leading to high strain-rate material deformation. Typically\, polymer foams have low impedance and exhibit strong rate-dependent mechanical behavior\; consequently\, novel dynamic experimental techniques and metrologies need to be implemented and aid in the development of physics-based constitutive models for these cellular systems in loading regimes of real-world interest. As such\, this talk focuses on quantitative microstructural characterization of open cell polyurethane foams and its relation to bulk response\, their compressive behavior across six orders of magnitude in strain rates and utilizing a non-parametric formulation of the Virtual Fields Method to extract dynamic material behavior. How these efforts are leading us to explore the design space of microarchitected materials for next-generation protective systems will also be discussed. \n\nAbout the speaker...\n\nLeslie Lamberson is an Associate Professor in Mechanical Engineering with affiliation in Materials Science at the Colorado School of Mines.

To alleviate these challenges\, prior work has provided extensive supervision via a combination of reward-shaping\, ground-truth object-information\, and expert demonstrations. In this work\, we show that one can learn object-interaction tasks from scratch without supervision by learning an attentive object-model as an auxiliary task during task learning with an object-centric relational RL agent. Our key insight is that learning an object-model that incorporates object-relationships into forward prediction provides a dense learning signal for unsupervised representation learning of both objects and their relationships. This\, in turn\, enables faster policy learning for an object-centric relational RL agent. We demonstrate our agent by introducing a set of challenging object-interaction tasks in the AI2Thor environment where learning with our attentive object-model is key to strong performance. Specifically\, by comparing our agent and relational RL agents with alternative auxiliary tasks with a relational RL agent equipped with ground-truth object-information\, we find that learning with our object-model best closes the performance gap in terms of both learning speed and maximum success rate. Additionally\, we find that incorporating object-relationships into an object-model's forward predictions is key to learning representations that capture object-category and object-state.\n\nZoom link: https://umich.zoom.us/j/99927591266\nMeeting ID: 999 2759 1266\nPassword: cogsci\n\nWilka Carvalho is currently a PhD student studying machine learning at UM.
