James brings to the forefront and celebrates the work of Black women. The USPS worker\, the artist\, the event-planning Zoom mom—the paintings in this exhibition reposition the narrative of black women’s visibility and value. Each portrait honors the individual and collective contributions and labors of Black women\, persistent through the pandemics\, through police violence\, and whether seen or unseen.\n\nWith the Gallery closed to the public due to COVID\, *Watch Me Work* will be completely visible from the street. Artwork will be hung in the Washington and Thayer-street first floor windows of the Institute for the Humanities\, with two additional pieces visible through the gallery window on Thayer in a public celebration of these meaningful human relationships and connections.\n\nThis exhibition was made possible by a grant from The Andrew W. Mellon Foundation.

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.

COVID-19 has brought to light the fragility of global supply chains and challenges health systems have faced to address the new health needs arising from COVID-19 while continuing to address traditional health care needs. Clearly\, resiliency of supply chains and health systems is essential. Exploring the elements of resilient health supply chains will be the focus of GHSCS 2020. Resiliency can be achieved through supply chain design\, appropriate use of technology\, leveraging partnerships and establishing proper governance systems but all these depend on a deep understanding of the challenges faced by the workforce who will be called upon to execute on the resilience strategy and fill in the inevitable gaps. \n\nGHSCS 2020 will explore these issues through a combination of keynotes & plenary speakers\, panel discussions\, and contributed talks. Like in the past\, the conference has assembled a collection of experts in and from the field – academics\, country planners\, NGOs\, logistics practitioners\, industry and donor representatives to explore these topics. The committee is particularly interested in capturing the voices from the field to learn and share experiences related to managing supply chains for and during COVID-19.\n\n43 countries represented by registered attendees UID:79395-20296428@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/79395 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Public Health LOCATION:Off Campus Location CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20201022T104855 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20201118T090000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20201118T130000 SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Principles of Text Analysis DESCRIPTION:The Population Dynamics and Health Program resumes our 2020 workshop series on Nov. 18th\, with a workshop entitled Principles of Text Analysis\, presented by Patrick van Kessel\, senior data scientist at Pew Research Center.

Dr. Nalbantian discusses how an absence of a national homeland accepted by all Armenians did not translate into a lack of political life. Focusing on the Armenian Diaspora of Lebanon\, Dr. Nalbantian shows how by the 1950s\, Armenians were firmly part of and ensconced in Lebanese politics. Armenians’ (re)-positioning vis-à-vis Lebanon’s imminent post-colonial independence in the mid-1940s included a fair share of double-entendres\, tensions\, and contrasts. Lebanese Armenians were divided along the right-left fault lines that divided Lebanese politics and society in general – they\, Nalbantian argues\, were Lebanonized. At the same time\, the Lebanese state was somehow Armenianized\, as it started to pay more attention to Armenian matters than before. For example\, the state directly intervened with military force in Armenian neighborhoods to end the internecine Armenian confrontation in December 1958. Armenian parties participated in and contributed to the considerable political tensions in Lebanon\, simultaneously\, they used their position within the Lebanese political system to jostle for power within the Armenian community. Dr. Nalbantian’s talk aims to register Lebanon as a space of both Armenian fashioning and belonging and challenge the tendency to read Middle East history through the lens of dominant (Arab) nationalisms and Lebanon through sectarianism.\n \n Tsolin Nalbantian is Assistant Professor of Modern Middle East History at Leiden University working on the social and cultural history of the Middle East. She is the co-editor of Critical\, Connected Histories series (Leiden University Press) and has published articles in Mashriq & Mahjar\, MESA Review of Middle East Studies\, and History Compass. Nalbantian is the author of \"Armenians Beyond Diaspora: Making Lebanon\" Their Own (Edinburgh University Press\; 2019).\n\nThe following text will be included on all II events unless you indicate otherwise:If there is anything we can do to make this event accessible to you\, please contact us.

This event will be virtual\, open to the public\, and free to attend.\n\nThis event will build on the conference hosted last year by continuing to explore how central banks are evolving and their potential to foster greater financial and economic inclusion in the United States and worldwide. This year’s conference will examine how the three functions of a modern central bank could evolve to create a more inclusive financial system. Areas of exploration may include:\n\n• How the functions of the modern central bank could shift to more \n actively promote inclusion and address poverty\, rather than \n responding to exclusion\,\n• The potential for central banks to operate as new kinds of utilities \n or direct service providers\,\n• The value and challenge of extending the regulatory perimeter to \n supervise new products\, services\, and networks\, and\n• The role of technology and innovation within central banks to help \n support both traditional and expanded functions.

Someone Else’s Problems: The Dissident Author Post-Dissidence DESCRIPTION:Postwar literature in Central and Eastern Europe\, particularly as it has been framed in Western Europe and North America\, has been shaped by strong personalities whose exile from their respective homelands helped enshroud their critiques of authoritarianism in so-called “moral authority.” But in quitting the Soviet Union\, Poland\, or Czechoslovakia for new lives in countries like the United States and France\, these writers often found themselves in the midst of sociopolitical upheavals whose terms they scarcely understood and to whose contexts their own struggles offered no clear analogy. This talk reevaluates the Western careers of four of the most prominent authors to whom such “moral authority” has been generally ascribed—Alexander Solzhenitsyn\, Joseph Brodsky\, Czesław Miłosz\, and Milan Kundera—against the backdrop of the struggle for civil rights and racial justice in their adopted countries.\n\nBenjamin Paloff is the author of *Lost in the Shadow of the Word (Space\, Time\, and Freedom in Interwar Eastern Europe)*—named the 2018 Best Book in Literary Studies by AATSEEL—and of the poetry collections *And His Orchestra* (2015) and *The Politics* (2011). He has translated nearly a dozen books\, most recently Dorota Masłowska’s *Honey\, I Killed the Cats*\, and has been awarded fellowships from the National Endowment for the Arts (twice\, in poetry and in translation)\, the US Fulbright Programs\, the Stanford Humanities Center\, and the PEN/Heim Translation Fund\, among others.

We currently have over $2.7 billion in assets under management across 7 funds\, and have made over 100 investments in middle market business since we were founded in 2001. The key to our success has been a focused operational strategy that is based on working with\, learning from\, and developing exceptional people. This central component of our strategy has resulted in the establishment of Alpine’s PeopleFirst™ program\, which supports the passionate individuals who are the key drivers ofsuccess in building enduring companies. \n\n\nOUR INTERNSHIP PROGRAMS\nAlpine believes in empowering and developing young leaders. We currently offer two summer internship programs for juniors entering senior year— one program on the Investing team and one on the Sourcing team. Interns are anintegral part of the deal teams at Alpine and throughout the summers. We believe in giving interns ownership and responsibility early\, so they candrive real impact and maximize their learning. \n \nSome of the highlights of our internship programs include: two weeks of robust onboarding with financial modeling\, technical training\, practice expert calls\, unique culture workshops\, real deal work\, bonding/social activities\, business school case studies led by our founding partner and GSB professor\, Graham Weaver\, and more!\n \nInvesting Summer Program.\nThe primary responsibility of the investing intern is to assess potential investment opportunitiesfor Alpine’s fund. This entails proactively analyzing industries and individual companies\, identifying key trends and risks\, and highlighting attractive areas for investment. As deal processes “go live\,” the investing interns play a critical role on the deal team as they assist with various components of the deal process\, including company visits and diligence meetings with business executives.\n \nThe investing internship is most appropriate for those who wish to learn about the entire deal process\, from initial evaluation and negotiation\, through due diligence and comprehensive quantitative analyses\, to completing the transaction. Individualsin this role most likely see themselves as future investing partners.\n \nSourcing Summer Program.\nThe primary responsibility of the sourcing intern is to drive potential investment opportunities. Sourcing is a critical function within private equity\, as it is the tip of the spear and life blood for all other activities within a firm. The more proactive we can be in finding prospective deals\, the more opportunities we have to choose from in order to reach the best investment decisions. Interns will learn to source opportunities through multiple channels\, including investment banks\, business brokers\, and direct outreach to target companies. They will learn how to learn to navigate Alpine’s target industries\, analyze prospective deals\, improve their financial acumen\, and hone their dynamic communication skills.\n \nThe sourcing internship is most appropriate for someone that is motivated by utilizing metrics\, driving key search tactics\,and building impactful relationships. Individuals should be excited abouta role where they are regularly on the phone\, own proactive outreach\, get to learn about and research industries/trends\, and drive meetings witha range of external stakeholders.\n UID:79312-20272772@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/79312 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES: LOCATION: CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20201015T111742 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20201118T120000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20201118T140000 SUMMARY:Livestream / Virtual:Ross Energy Week DESCRIPTION:The Energy Club at the University of Michigan’s Ross School of Business presents the first Ross Energy Week.\nTheme – Inflection Point 2020: Powering Our Next Decade\n\nWhen: November 16-20\, 2020\nWhere: Virtual \nRegistration is free.

When individuals move through these systems—as administrators\, instructors\, or learners—they make choices to participate in the perpetuation or the disruption of these inequities. While some perpetuation of inequity can be attributed to ignorance\, it is often true that individuals who do understand the harmful impacts of unjust behavior\, processes\, and structures often fail to address them. This session centers around an embodied case study depicting one man’s meditation on a personal failure and the choices he made afterward that defined his path as an educator. Through session activities\, participants will reflect on what failures of this kind indicate about the educational environments in which they occur and how such reflection might prime them to reshape the spaces in which they have responsibilities.\nIn this session\, participants will:\n\nReflect on their personal failures to act for justice.\nConsider how their lived relationship to social inequities within and outside of their educational environment shape their willingness and ability to act.\nExplore the tension between risk and responsibility when disrupting the status quo.\nPractice identifying opportunities for proactive justice work in their spheres of influence in the academy.\n\nThis workshop is designed for graduate students and postdoctoral fellows.

How would you respond? What makes situations like these so vexing is that they pit two fundamental drives against one another: protecting those we love versus abiding by universal rules that govern society. Yet the overwhelming majority of research in moral psychology has ignored the influence of relationships\, focusing instead on how people respond to the immoral acts of strangers. In this talk\, I will review findings from an integrative program of research that demonstrates how close relationships powerfully shape the way people respond to moral transgressions. First\, I will review research indicating that people are much more likely to protect close (vs. distant) others who act immorally\, particularly when the acts they observe are severe. Next\, I will address how cultural norms can influence the saw relationships have on moral reasoning. Finally\, I will present initial work exploring how relationships between transgressor and victim influence the victim’s response. Together\, these findings underscore the importance of taking context into account when studying moral reasoning.\n\n\nZach Reese\n\nTitle: \nCompetition within Relationships\n\nAbstract: \nPeople in the U.S. strive for achievement\, individuality\, and glory while simultaneously striving to build and maintain close relationships. What happens when our desire to be \"top dog\" conflicts with our desire to support our loved ones? In this presentation\, I will discuss several studies examining the roles competition and dominance play in our close relationships.

There are many common threads: the need for extreme interactivity\, the need for flexible data aggregation and the commonality of spatial data. The size of data sets have grown almost a million fold\, but user expectations for almost instant results has not changed. The talk will describe the gradual evolution of the SciServer\, and how new interactive metaphors to interact with hundreds of terabytes of turbulence simulations emerged. We will discuss how machine learning and AI tools are transforming science\, from simulations to how large experiments are designed and executed. We will also emphasize that much of these new developments still rely on having unique high value data sets at our fingertips\, and how the long term survival of these is entering a critical\, endangered phase.

Therefore\, engineering education research (EER) is critical to driving the impetus and approach to racial equity within engineering education and practice. This presentation will spotlight how anti-Blackness is embedded in EER practices and delineate its roots in America’s systemic racism. Centering the experience of Black people within the engineering education community helps reframe the problem of racial/ethnic exclusion\, while generating a new way forward through pro-Black EER (PEER). PEER uses critical methodologies\, frameworks\, and intentional citation practices to assert the genius of Black people.

This variation reflects the combined actions of mutation introducing new genetic variants and selection eliminating deleterious ones. Comparative studies of gene expression in fruit flies\, yeast\, plants\, and mice have shown that the relative contributions of cis- and trans-acting variants to expression differences change over evolutionary time\, indicating that selection has different effects on cis- and trans-regulatory variants. To better understand the reasons for this now widely observed pattern\, we have been systematically studying the effects of mutation and selection on expression of the TDH3 gene of the baker’s yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae. This work has revealed differences between cis- and trans-regulatory mutations in their frequency\, effects\, and dominance. Differences in pleiotropy are also generally assumed to exist between cis- and trans-regulatory that affect their evolutionary fate\, but have been difficult to measure. In this talk\, I will discuss how newly arising cis- and trans-regulatory mutations affecting expression of this focal gene are structured within the regulatory network\, their pleiotropic effects on expression of all other genes in the genome\, and how these pleiotropic effects influence fitness. A computational model of regulatory evolution integrating empirically observed differences in properties of cis- and trans-regulatory mutations will also be presented and discussed.\n\nPatricia Wittkopp received a BS from the University of Michigan\, a PhD from the University of Wisconsin\, and did postdoctoral work at Cornell University.

Historically\, Niels Bohr was the first to hypothesize that quantum jumps occurred between two discrete energy levels of an atom. Experimentally\, quantum jumps were directly observed many decades later in an atomic ion driven by a weak deterministic force under strong continuous energy measurement. The times at which the discontinuous jump transitions occur are reputed to be fundamentally unpredictable. Despite the non-deterministic character of quantum physics\, is it possible to know if a quantum jump is about to occur? Our work1 provides a positive answer to this question: we experimentally show that the jump from the ground state to an excited state of a superconducting artificial three-level atom can be tracked as it follows a predictable “flight” by monitoring the population of an auxiliary energy level coupled to the ground state. The experimental results demonstrate that the evolution of the jump — once completed — is continuous\, coherent\, and deterministic. Based on these insights and aided by real-time monitoring and feedback\, we then pinpoint and reverse one such quantum jump “mid-flight”\, thus deterministically preventing its completion. Our findings\, which agree with theoretical predictions essentially without adjustable parameters\, lend support to the modern formulation of quantum trajectory theory\; most importantly\, they may provide new ground for the exploration of real-time intervention techniques in the control of quantum systems\, such as the early detection of error syndromes.\n\n1.

Minev et al.\, Nature 570\, 200–204 (2019)\n\nShort Bio:\n\nMichel Devoret graduated from Ecole Nationale Superieure des Telecommunications in Paris in 1975 and started graduate work in molecular quantum physics at the University of Orsay. He then joined Professor Anatole Abragam's laboratory in CEA-Saclay to work on NMR in solid hydrogen\, and received his PhD from Paris University in 1982. He spent two post-doctoral years working on macroscopic quantum tunneling with John Clarke's laboratory at the University of California\, Berkeley. He pursued this research on quantum mechanical electronics upon his return to Saclay\, starting his own research group with Daniel Esteve and Cristian Urbina. The main achievements of the \"quantronics group\" were in this period the measurement of the traversal time of tunneling\, the invention of the single electron pump (now the basis of a new standard of capacitance)\, the first measurement of the effect of atomic valence on the conductance of a single atom\, and the first observation of the Ramsey fringes of a superconducting artificial atom (quantronium). He became director of research at the Commissariat a l'Energie Atomique (CEA) at Saclay. In 2007\, Michel has been appointed to the College de France\, where he taught until 2012. He is a member of the American Academy of Arts and Sciences (2003) and a member of the French Academy of Sciences (2008). Michel has received the Ampere Prize of the French Academy of Science (together with Daniel Esteve\, 1991)\, the Descartes-Huygens Prize of the Royal Academy of Science of the Netherlands (1996) and the Europhysics-Agilent Prize of the European Physical Society (together with Daniel Esteve\, Hans Mooij and Yasunobu Nakamura\, 2004). He is also a recipient of the John Stewart Bell Prize\, which he received jointly with Rob Schoelkopf in 2013. In 2014\, he has been awarded\, together with John Martinis and Rob Schoelkopf\, the Fritz London Memorial Prize. He received the Olli Lounaasma Prize in 2016. \n\nCurrently the F. W. Beinecke Professor of Applied Physics at Yale University -- which he joined in 2002 -- he focuses his research on experimental solid state physics with emphasis on quantum mechanical electronics (a.k.a. \"quantronics\") for quantum information processing. In this new type of electronics\, electrical collective degrees of freedom like currents and voltages behave quantum mechanically. Such mesoscopic phenomena are particularly important in quantum circuits based on Josephson junctions\, which is his main research goal. He currently focuses on the new phenomena of fault-tolerant quantum operations and remote entanglement.\n\n\n UID:79260-20243268@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/79260 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Physics,Science LOCATION:Off Campus Location CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20201117T095608 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20201118T160000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20201118T170000 SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Gigliola Staffilani (MIT) to give MCAIM Colloquium DESCRIPTION:Abstract: In recent years great progress has been made in the study of dispersive and wave equations.

She soon discovers that Frank is gay\, and living with his longtime partner Walid “Wally” Nadeem (Peter Macdissi) -- an arrangement that he has kept secret for years. After the sudden death of Frank's father -- Beth’s grandfather -- Frank is forced to reluctantly return home for the funeral with Beth in tow\, and to finally face a long-buried trauma that he has spent his entire adult life running away from.\nWriter-director Alan Ball’s heartfelt and hilarious road movie travels from the bohemian scene of post-Stonewall New York City to rural South Carolina\, following Frank’s painful journey from hitting rock bottom to acceptance and forgiveness and\, finally\, reintegration into his family and into life itself. Bettany reveals Frank’s fragile core by peeling away the layers of Frank’s sophisticated but guarded persona. Sophia Lillis plays Beth as a naive but observant young woman whose eyes are opened to a world she could never have imagined. Peter Macdissi also has a standout performance as Wally\, a man whose capacity for compassion runs deeper than he even knows. Ball (known for his ensemble TV work on Six Feet Under and True Blood) also elicits strong turns from his superb supporting cast\, including Stephen Root\, Margo Martindale\, Steve Zahn\, Judy Greer and Lois Smith.
