For instructions\, please email cmenas@umich.edu with the subject “Request to watch ‘Stray'”\n \nAbout the film:\nThrough the eyes of three stray dogs wandering the streets of Istanbul\, STRAY explores what it means to live as a being without status or security. As they search for food and shelter\, Zeytin\, Nazar and Kartal embark on inconspicuous journeys through Turkish society that allow us an unvarnished portrait of human life — and their own canine culture.\n \nZeytin\, fiercely independent\, embarks on solitary adventures through the city at night\; Nazar\, nurturing and protective\, easily befriends the humans around her\; while Kartal\, a shy puppy living on the outskirts of a construction site\, finds refuge with the security guards who care for her. The disparate lives of Zeytin\, Nazar and Kartal intersect when they each form intimate bonds with a group of young Syrians who share the streets with them.\n \nWhether they lead us into bustling streets or decrepit ruins\, the gaze of these strays act as windows into the overlooked corners of society: women in loveless marriages\, protesters without arms\, refugees without sanctuary. The film is a critical observation of human civilization through the unfamiliar gaze of dogs and a sensory voyage into new ways of seeing.\n\nCo-sponsor: Michigan Theatre UID:82750-21171588@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/82750 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:center for middle eastern and north african studies,cmenas,Film,Middle East Studies,Virtual LOCATION:Off Campus Location CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20210225T101133 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20210311T080000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20210311T200000 SUMMARY:Film Screening:CMENAS Virtual Viewing: You Will Die at Twenty DESCRIPTION:For a limited time\, we are sponsoring free access to this film's virtual viewing. For instructions\, please email cmenas@umich.edu with the subject “Request to watch ‘You Will Die at Twenty'”\n \n About the movie:\n NYTimes Critics Pick! Winner of the Lion of the Future Award for best Debut Feature at the Venice Film Festival\, YOU WILL DIE AT TWENTY is visually sumptuous “coming-of-death” fable. During her son’s naming ceremony\, a Sheikh predicts that Sakina’s child will die at the age of 20. Haunted by this prophecy\, Sakina becomes overly protective of her son Muzamil\, who grows up knowing about his fate. As Muzamil escapes Sakina’s ever-watchful eye\, he encounters friends\, ideas and challenges that make him question his destiny. Sudan’s first Oscar submission\, YOU WILL DIE AT TWENTY is an auspicious debut and a moving meditation on what it means to live in the present.\n\nCo-sponsor: Michigan Theatre UID:82514-21114084@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/82514 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:center for middle eastern and north african studies,Film,Middle East Studies LOCATION:Off Campus Location CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20210217T133137 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20210311T080000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20210311T230000 SUMMARY:Exhibition:For Your Eyes Only DESCRIPTION:Please Note: This exhibition is designed to be viewed through the gallery window on Thayer St.\n\nYasmine Nasser Diaz is the 2021 Efroymson Emerging Artist at the Institute for the Humanities.\n\nFor Your Eyes Only is the latest iteration of multidisciplinary artist Yasmine Nasser Diaz’s bedroom installation. At first glance\, the constructed space is a shimmering homage to the bedroom disco—a sanctuary for uninhibited dance and self-expression. It has also become the setting from which many personal videos are made and shared widely on social media\, where platforms such as Instagram and TikTok have blurred the boundary between public and private. Projected into the space is a montage of casual videos shared by female-identifying and non-binary persons of SWANA* origin dancing solo in their rooms. To some\, the videos may seem innocent and innocuous\, but they can also be seen as acts of defiance that assert the autonomy of bodies that have been surveilled\, scrutinized\, and censored throughout history. Alongside these intimate moments is a separate reel showing political figures and protest movements from the SWANA region. The images demonstrate the fluctuating attitudes and regulations impacting human rights and freedoms based on gender\, and exemplify how—whether we are physically at a protest or sharing our physicality in virtual spaces—our bodies are engaged in some level of risk.\n*Southwest Asian/North African\n\nThis project is supported by a grant from the Efroymson Family Fund.

Urban flora and fauna experience a suite of novel disturbances and stressors that have led to remarkable phenotypic strategies and adaptations to cope with urban living. Despite recent groundbreaking discoveries and innovation in the fields of urban ecology and evolution\, the drivers of urban heterogeneity that induce biological change are seldom articulated. The spatiotemporal distributions of urban organisms are directly affected by the uneven distribution of resources (e.g.\, refugia\, food\, water) across cities\, all of which are connected to societal function and governance. Hence\, to build a comprehensive understanding of urban systems and wildlife adaptation\, we must integrate and reconcile how structural inequality – especially racism and classism – shape urban environmental mosaics. In this seminar talk\, Dr. Chris Schell will discuss how structural and systemic inequalities\, especially economic and racial inequality\, shape ecological and evolutionary outcomes of wildlife. In doing so\, he will discuss how leading with an environmental justice and activism framework in the natural sciences can promote conversation\, sustainability\, and resilience in a human-dominated world.\nJoin us on Zoom UID:80094-20556871@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/80094 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:AEM Featured,Biology,Biosciences,Bsbsigns,Research,Science LOCATION:Off Campus Location CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20210129T104541 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20210311T150000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20210311T161500 SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Listening Circles DESCRIPTION:Listening Circles are new and free for U-M undergraduates and graduate students! \n\nIn this time of COVID-19\, many students feel isolated and yearn for deeper connections.\n\nListening Circles can help create space for students to share experiences and feelings\, create connections\, and look to the future. \n\nThe goal of a listening circle is to create space for shared emotional connection about the impact of pressing issues\, such as racism and the pandemic.

U-M Industrial and Operations Engineering graduate students and faculty are especially encouraged to attend.\n\nTitle:\nImportance Sampling with Stochastic Computer Models: From Theory to Practice\n\nAbstract:\nImportance sampling has been widely used to improve the efficiency of deterministic computer simulations where the simulation output is uniquely determined\, given a fixed input. To represent complex system behavior more realistically\, however\, stochastic computer models are gaining popularity. Unlike deterministic computer simulations\, stochastic simulations produce different outputs even at the same input. This extra degree of stochasticity presents a challenge in analyzing engineering system performance. Our study tackles this challenge by addressing two problems. First\, we derive the optimal importance sampling density and allocation procedure that minimize the variance of an estimator. Second\, we present a non-parametric approach to approximate the optimal importance sampling density with a multivariate input vector when each factor’s contribution is different. The application of our method to a computationally intensive\, aeroelastic wind turbine simulator demonstrates the benefits of the proposed approaches.\n\nBio:\nEunshin Byon is an Associate Professor in the Department of Industrial and Operations Engineering at the University of Michigan\, Ann Arbor\, USA.

Spencer Lecture: Dr. Jack Kaye DESCRIPTION:The Climate and Space Sciences and Engineering department is very pleased to welcome Dr. Jack Kaye of the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) as our 2021 Spencer Lecturer. \n\nDr. Kaye is Associate Director for Research of the Earth Science Division (ESD) in NASA's Science Mission Directorate (SMD). \n\n\"From Alphabet Soup to Gourmet Cuisine - My 30+ Years of Interagency and International Coordination in Earth System Science\"\n \nThe Earth is a complicated system that is driven by a mix of naturally-occurring and human-induced forcings\, and its study requires a variety of integrated approaches addressing multiple Earth system components (atmosphere\, hydrosphere\, cryosphere\, biosphere\, lithosphere) and the processes that couple them\, now combined into the overall subject of Earth System Science. Besides being simply an object of scientific study\, Earth is also our collective home\, and its response to natural and human change affects the lives of today’s and tomorrow’s global citizens\, making Earth System Science a rich subject for both scientific research and for the application of the results of that research to policy and decision making. The scope and breadth of the topic makes the topic too big to be addressed fully by any one organization\, so coordination across organizations\, both domestically and internationally\, becomes a key consideration in our respective efforts. The resulting coordination affects all aspects\, including observations (from space\, air\, and surface)\, modeling\, process research\, assessment\, and applications. In the US\, this has meant interagency coordination\, both bilateral and multilateral\, while internationally\, the coordination has also involved bilateral and multilateral relationships\, the latter including those that are both government-driven and community-driven. In this talk\, my experience in interagency and international coordination will be reviewed\, along with some highlights\, lessons learned\, and thoughts about the future. Interagency examples will include the US Global Change Research Program and its National Climate Assessment\, the Office of the Federal Coordinator for Meteorology and the National Polar Orbiting Environmental Satellite System\, while international examples will include the World Climate Research Program\, the World Meteorological Organization\, and bilateral cooperation with several international partners on Space Shuttle and Satellite programs.\n\nPlease join us!\n\nContact: Laura Hopkins\, lhopkins@umich.edu UID:80426-20719761@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/80426 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Climate and Space Sciences and Engineering LOCATION:Off Campus Location CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20210326T123048 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20210311T153000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20210311T170000 SUMMARY:Careers / Jobs:Madison Square Garden Presents: Student Associate Panel & Networking DESCRIPTION:There's no better way to learn about our Student Associate Program at Madison Square Garden than hearing directly from our current Student Associates!\n\nJoin us to get to know various experiences within the Student Associate Program and uncover the truth about what it's like to be aStudent Associate\, the types of projects / opportunities presented\, thesocial and professional development events\, and tips for how to be successful within the recruitment process and program itself.

She became fascinated by how complicated developmental systems are\, and joined the Wittkopp lab at U-M for her PhD to investigate one mechanism of complicating developmental systems: gene duplication.\n\n\"REGULATORY DIVERGENCE OF DUPLICATED GENES\": Gene duplication has long been studied as a mechanism of evolution at the genetic level. Duplicated genes introduce redundant protein-coding sequence\, allowing duplicates to acquire novel functions while preserving existing functions. Gene duplication\, however\, also provides a substrate for non-protein coding\, regulatory sequence evolution. Genes are duplicated with varying levels of their native regulatory sequence intact. This prompts the question: how does the degree to which duplication preserves native regulatory sequence affect future evolutionary paths? Here\, I investigate this question by comparing the expression profiles of duplicate genes across many environments in two diverging species of yeast.\n\nAGNIT MUKHOPADHYAY: Agnit is a NASA Earth & Space Sciences Fellow at the Climate and Space Sciences and Engineering department at the University of Michigan\, with a background in Aerospace Engineering. He is co-advised by Drs. Michael Liemohn and Daniel Welling to quantify the nonlinear coupling between the Earth’s atmosphere and it’s near-plasma environment. He loves working with numerical models to assess and predict the impact of extreme natural events on life and technology.\n\n\"QUANTIFYING THE IMPACT OF THE AURORA ON SPACE WEATHER\": Conjuring a captivating vista of a colourful nightsky\, the aurora borealis (Northern Lights) and australis (Southern Lights) are a byproduct of upper atmospheric ionization by charged particles (plasma) of solar origin. The near-constant drizzling of auroral plasma particles from outer space are excellent drivers of space weather activity caused by solar disruptions like flares and coronal mass ejections that can adversely affect man-made technology like GPS satellites\, electrical power grids and oil pipelines. Using a combination of physics-based models\, data regression tools\, in-situ satellite and ground-based telemetry\, we figure out what forms and drives the aurora\, how these drivers modify the aurora’s electro-chemical atmospheric modification\, and how this system could be predicted during extreme natural events.\n\nRegister to receive the Zoom information for this event: https://umich.zoom.us/meeting/register/tJwlceutrDIuEtLOgDS3ETaDjFmeDUT9hNU6 UID:82557-21116106@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/82557 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Computational Science,Ecology,Evolutionary Biology,Scientific Computing LOCATION:Off Campus Location CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20210326T123046 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20210311T160000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20210311T173000 SUMMARY:Careers / Jobs:Ascension Michigan GN/RN Virtual Informational Event DESCRIPTION:Ascension Michigan provides professional development support to help new grads and experienced nurses like you thrive.

For example\, volumetric muscle loss (VML) injuries are characterized by a degree of composite muscle tissue loss so severe\, that it exceeds the native ability of the muscle to repair\, thereby resulting in permanent cosmetic and functional deficits to the limbs\, neck\, or face. These injuries significantly impact both the civilian and military populations. Current treatment for VML injury involves surgical muscle transfer\, although these procedures are often associated with both poor engraftment and donor site morbidity\, as well as incomplete cosmesis and functional recovery. Not surprisingly\, this unmet medical need has stimulated research efforts to develop new technologies for treatment of VML injuries. Recent attention has focused on development of tissue engineering (TE)/regenerative medicine (RM) technologies to provide more effective treatment options for large scale muscle injuries. A variety of preclinical approaches have been tried that include implantation of synthetic and/or natural extracellular matrices/scaffolds/constructs at the site of VML injury\, both with and without a cellular component. Extant data indicate that the inclusion of a cellular component generally leads to a greater degree of functional improvement. Consistent with these preclinical results\, recent clinical studies for treatment of VML injury\, solely with implanted decellularized extracellular matrix scaffolds\, have provided evidence for modest functional recovery but with little de novo muscle tissue regeneration at the injury site. More recently\, bio-printed tissue engineered constructs and their potential applications to treatment of VML injury have been reported in the literature. While these initial clinical and preclinical observations are encouraging for the TE/RM paradigm\, full structural and functional recovery has yet to be achieved\, and thus\, there remains significant room for therapeutic advancement. To this end\, I will describe our highly collaborative efforts to boost development and evaluation of a range of implantable regenerative therapeutics (biomaterials and tissue engineered constructs) in biologically relevant animal models. The overall goal is to increase the efficiency of clinical translation of TE/RM technologies capable of more complete functional recovery following repair of VML injury.\n\nZOOM LINK: https://umich.zoom.us/j/94405051853 UID:81389-20889819@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/81389 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Basic Science,Biointerfaces,Biology,biomedical,biomedical engineering,Bioninterfaces,Biosciences,Biotechnology,bme,engineer,engineering,Life Science,Medicine,Michigan Engineering,Natural Sciences,Science LOCATION:Off Campus Location CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20210305T123547 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20210311T160000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20210311T171500 SUMMARY:Class / Instruction:Chair's Distinguished Lecture: Ultralight Coilable Structures for the Space Solar Power Project DESCRIPTION:Sergio Pellegrino\nProfessor of Aerospace and Civil Engineering\nJet Propulsion Laboratory Senior Research Scientist\nCo-Director\, Space-Based Solar Power Project\nCalifornia Institute of Technology\n\nIn 1968\, Peter Glaser envisaged kilometer-scale space systems comprising solar collectors and transmitting antennas that would beam power to the earth from geostationary orbit\, but for many years that dream remained elusive. In this talk\, I will discuss the Caltech Space Solar Power Project’s pursuit to conceive\, design\, and demonstrate a scalable vision for a constellation of ultralight\, modular spacecraft that collect sunlight\, transform it into electrical power\, and wirelessly beam electricity to the earth. The basic module of these future solar power systems is a scalable plate-like square spacecraft that can be tightly coiled for launch and reliably deployed in space. Its structural concept combines origami packaging techniques and coilable shell structures built from ultrathin composite laminates that support photovoltaic and antenna elements. I will present our research on the packaging\, deployment and stability of these structures of unprecedented lightness. I will conclude by showing proof-of-concept physical models for an upcoming demonstration in space. \n\nAbout the speaker...\n\nSergio Pellegrino is the Joyce and Kent Kresa Professor of Aerospace and Civil Engineering at the California Institute of Technology\, JPL Senior Research Scientist and Co-Director of the Space Solar Power Project. Pellegrino’s general area of research is the mechanics of lightweight structures\, focusing on packaging\, deployment\, shape control and stability. He has authored over 300 technical publications on these topics\, including the recently published book Forms and Concepts for Lightweight Structures\, co-authored with Koryo Miura. Pellegrino is a Fellow of the Royal Academy of Engineering\, a Fellow of AIAA and a Chartered Structural Engineer. He is currently President of the International Association for Shell and Spatial Structures and Chairman of the Aerospace Historical Society.

Drawing on his experiences as the son of a Black mother and an Irish-American father\, Johnson offers readers and audiences a nuanced\, challenging view on what it means to be a person of color in America throughout history and today.\n\nSince the publication of his first novel\, *Drop*\, in 2000\, Johnson has established a reputation as a forward-thinking writer with a unique\, imaginative perspective on American social norms\, which he explores through characters that toe the line between outlandish and instantly recognizable. His follow-up novel\, the gentrification satire *Hunting In Harlem*\, was highly acclaimed and received the Zora Neale Hurston/Richard Wright Legacy Award for Novel of the Year.\n\nJohnson’s satirical novel\,* Pym*\, a brilliant reimagining of a famously enigmatic Edgar Allen Poe story\, was named one of the best books of the year by *The Washington Post\, Vanity Fair\, The Seattle Times\, the Houston Chronicle*\, and more. *Loving Day*\, his 2016 novel\, is a hilarious yet moving story about race\, family\, and opposites bound in love. Hailed as “Exceptional…To say that *Loving Day* is a book about race is like saying Moby-Dick is a book about whales\,” by *the Los Angeles Times*\, *Loving Day* was a *New York Times* Notable Book and named one of the best books of the year by *the San Francisco Chronicle*\, NPR\, *Men’s Journal*\, and more. Both *Pym* and *Loving Day* (one of *The New York Times’* 100 Notable Books of 2015) are popular choices for common reading experiences across campuses nationwide. Johnson has also brought his sensibility to comics and graphic novels\, most notably in *Incognegro*\, which combines graphic storytelling\, noir mystery\, and meticulously-researched history to explore issues of passing in a segregated society and America’s history of lynching.\n\nIn lectures that explore race\, identity\, and the writing process\, Johnson unravels the themes that run through his work with humor\, scholarship\, and insight. He has received the Dos Passos Prize for Literature and was the first person to be named a James Baldwin Fellow. Johnson is a professor at University of Oregon’s Creative Writing Program and English Department.\n\n\nThe Zell Visiting Writers Series brings outstanding writers to campus each semester. The Series is made possible through a generous gift from U-M alumna Helen Zell (BA ’64\, LLDHon ’13).

The migration of jazz musicians to Detroit in the 1920s and 1930s caused the area to develop its own thriving music scene. By the 1960s\, the area became known for the first black owned record label\, Motown. Today\, the name \"Motown\" is synonymous with funk and soul music.\n\nDetroit was home to some of the most important events of the 1960s and 1970s Civil Rights Movement. Consequently\, jazz musicians in Detroit have witnessed music's role in shaping race relations within the city and across the United States.\n\nJoin us for this lecture and discussion\, where Marion Hayden will tell of her experiences as a bassist in Detroit. With her deep knowledge of the city's musical history\, learn how Motown and jazz were musical vanguards in altering to the social landscape of Detroit\, Michigan\, and the United States.\n\n\n>> About Marion\n\nBorn in Detroit\, MI\, a crucible of jazz\, Marion Hayden is one of the nation’s finest proponents of the acoustic bass.

In 2016 Hayden was honored for her work as a performer and educator with the prestigious Kresge Artist Fellowship- a 1 year fellowship and grant award given an elite group of creative artists. She was the recipient of a 2016 Jazz Hero Award.- a national award given by the Jazz Journalists Association- recognizing people who have made a significant contribution through their artistry and community engagement.\n\nAs an arts advocate\, Hayden has served as Grant Panelist for the Detroit Council for the Arts and Cultural Affairs\, Michigan Council for the Arts and Cultural Affairs\, Art-Ops and the Highland Park Cultural Commission.

The informal music education here is both thorough and rigorous and includes arranging\, composing and production. The mentoring I received from the men and women in this music community was critical to my development as a creative artist. It instilled in me a sense of deep reverence and respect for music traditions\, but also a fearlessness and openness about bringing those traditions forward in an original and authentic way. I express this creative openness through the projects and collaborations I engage in.” UID:82790-21179559@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/82790 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:African American,arts at michigan,detroit,Free,History,Lifelong Learning,Music,performance,social justice LOCATION:Off Campus Location CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20210305T133906 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20210311T180000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20210311T190000 SUMMARY:Livestream / Virtual:Program in Biology and Undergraduate Program in Neuroscience Majors Panel DESCRIPTION:Come meet representatives from the Program in Biology and Undergraduate Program in Neuroscience.

In 2011\, the “3.11 Great East Japan Disaster” — a cascade of a M9.0 earthquake\, massive tsunamis\, and a nuclear accident — struck Japan\, which at that time ranked just 98th of the 135 countries on the Gender Gap Index (121th of the 153 countries in 2020). Now 10 years after 3.11\, panelists will discuss the disaster’s effects on women through their own experience and grassroots activism\, illuminating ways in which structures and norms of Japanese society contributed to women’s increased vulnerability in this time of crisis.
