SUMMARY:Social / Informal Gathering:Sign Up for the Community Matters Cohort Program
DESCRIPTION:University of Michigan students tell us that making friends and finding community are some of the most rewarding aspects of their time on campus but COVID-19 has made these things more challenging to do. You are invited to join the Community Matters Cohort Program which provides a space for students to meet others and participate in regular social events. Program participants will be matched with a small group of other students who are interested in finding community. Cohort groups will meet weekly for one hour via zoom and will have the opportunity to meet students from other cohorts throughout the Winter semester. \n \nThose interested in participating in the Community Matters Cohort Program should sign up by January 21st\, 2021 at 11:59pm. Cohort assignments will be announced by January 25th\, 2021 and the program will run from February 1st - April 18th\, 2021.

SUMMARY:Community Service:Season of Giving: Food Drive for Food Gatherers
DESCRIPTION:The season of giving has once again arrived in Michigan. But this one comes amid a surging pandemic\, an economic downturn\, and a looming deadline for continuation of federal financial relief.\n\nAll of these have created intense need in communities surrounding Michigan Medicine. In response\, the University of Michigan’s academic medical center will launch a third effort to encourage its own team\, and the local community\, to give food and funds to support Food Gatherers.\n\nStarting December 14\, and continuing through the 22nd\, this will include a convenient drive-up drop-off location for food and toiletries\, open to U-M faculty\, staff and students\, and members of the community in a position to give. It's located at Dock 90 of the North Campus Research Complex\, just off Huron Parkway.\n\nDonors may give online via credit card\, or get information about giving by mail or phone\, at http://www.foodgatherers.org/UM.\n\nAlready this year\, donors to Michigan Medicine’s previous two drives have contributed the equivalent of 128\,000 meals for Food Gatherers to distribute to more than 170 agencies that serve people throughout Washtenaw County and beyond. Generous individuals have also given thousands of pounds of personal care items\, from diapers to toothbrushes.\n\nThe donation drive started in March\, as part of Michigan Medicine’s effort to gather much-needed personal protective equipment during the early days of the pandemic when normal supply chains were disrupted.\n\nSince that time\, Food Gatherers’ partners have experienced a consistent surge in demand from people affected by the economic effects of the pandemic. Uncertainty over the future of federal and state relief efforts is making planning difficult.

SUMMARY:Film Screening:John Lewis: Good Trouble (SOLD OUT)
DESCRIPTION:REDEMPTIONS ARE SOLD OUT! 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.

SUMMARY:Presentation:THE CHANGING LANDSCAPE OF BIOMEDICAL DATA COLLECTIONS
DESCRIPTION:Abstract:\n\nThe landscape of biomedical data is incredibly complex\, rich\, and rapidly changing\, especially as we navigate the influx of data from the COVID-19 pandemic. More and more data is moving to the cloud\, both existing and newly generated\, with multiple cloud providers adding to the complexity. The data includes Electronic Health Records (EHRs)\, genomic data\, and imaging/sensed data (e.g.\, pictures of tumors\, lungs\, cells\, gas chromatographs)\, and all this data is enabling us to delve much deeper into complex biological concepts\, for example\, the relationship between phenotypes and genotypes. The NHLBI BioData Catalyst project is one example of a coordinated effort to move vast amounts of data into the cloud\, navigating the complexities of data ingestion\, diverse and widespread teams\, and multiple cloud providers/environments.\n\nOn top of the massive shift to being able to apply huge amounts of data to better understand individuals\, populations and\, ultimately\, life itself\, we need a way to organize all this information. The activities in the NCATS Biomedical Data Translator project can be viewed as a constantly evolving analysis of the relationships of disparate data sets. In a sense\, Translator is like Google for searching biomedical data.\n\nMy talk will introduce both projects and their respective impacts on biomedical research.\n\nBio:\n\nDr. Stan Ahalt is the Director of the Renaissance Computing Institute (RENCI) at UNC-Chapel Hill. As Director\, he leads a team of research scientists\, software and network engineers\, data science specialists\, and visualization experts who work closely with faculty research teams at UNC\, Duke\, NCSU\, and partners across the country. Dr. Ahalt is also a Professor in UNC’s Department of Computer Science and the Associate Director of Informatics and Data Science (IDSci) in the North Carolina Translational and Clinical Sciences Institute (NC TraCS)\, UNC’s CTSA award\; in this role\, Dr. Ahalt leverages the expertise and resources of RENCI to foster clinical and translational research across UNC’s campus. Dr. Ahalt earned his Ph.D. in Electrical and Computer Engineering from Clemson University and has over 30 years of experience in data science\, signal and image processing\, and pattern recognition/ML.
