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.

Recent work has identified hormones as key regulatory molecules to transduce external environmental cues into adaptive behavioral responses. However\, most work has focused on the role of a single environmental cue and its relevant hormonal pathways\, despite the fact that individuals likely must integrate cues from multiple sources to make adaptive decisions in the wild. Here\, I investigate how two important environmental cues\, social density and food availability are integrated to influence life-history plasticity in red squirrels. We used long term data to identify sources of variation in reproductive traits. I then explore a potential hormonal mechanism underlying this variation. I will discuss my preliminary findings and explore future directions for understanding how multiple hormone pathways interact to elicit behavioral responses in the wild.

At present\, China studies scholars have just begun this work. Dr. Hathaway’s talk describes some of these efforts and introduces his own studies on how wild elephants motivate and challenge international conservation efforts\, as well as how a wild mushroom is shaping an important part of the rural economy in Southwest China\, thus expanding attention beyond our animal kin.\n \n Michael Hathaway received his PhD in Anthropology from the University of Michigan in 2007\, and shortly thereafter began teaching at Simon Fraser University (SFU) in Vancouver\, Canada. He is currently an Associate Professor\, director of SFU's David Lam Centre for the Asia-Pacific\, and the editor-in-chief of American Ethnologist (with Stacy Pigg). His award-winning first book\, \"Environmental Winds: Making the Global in Southwest China\,\" was published in 2013 by the University of California Press. One of the three core members of the anthropological collaborative\, the Matsutake Worlds Research Group\, he has led research in China on the social worlds made through the creation of the wild matsutake mushroom economy.

The series seeks to promote a culture of inclusion\, while helping encourage attendees to continue their development as a \"whole person\" rather than simply as an \"engineer\". For our second event of the semester\, which will be held virtually via Zoom\, we have invited Prof. Kentaro Toyama.\n\nAbstract: The rate of technological innovation is only accelerating. Cars drive themselves. Genes can be edited. Robots are going mainstream. Engineers believe that new technologies can improve lives. Yet\, increasingly\, the broader public is concerned about a technological dystopia. In this talk\, I will introduce technology's Law of Amplification which offers a theory of how technology impacts society\, reconciling optimistic and pessimistic views. Amplification provides hints about how engineers can not just \"change the world\,\" but change the world for the better. \n\n\nBio: Kentaro Toyama is the W.K. Kellogg Professor of Community Information at the University of Michigan School of Information\, a fellow of the Dalai Lama Center for Ethics and Transformative Values at MIT\, and author of Geek Heresy: Rescuing Social Change from the Cult of Technology. In previous lives\, Kentaro taught at Ashesi University in Ghana and co-founded Microsoft Research India\, where he did research on the application of digital technology to international development.\n\nTo register for the event\, please fill out the form linked here (https://forms.gle/yXnBMB3REBvFhPG86) by midnight on Sunday\, April 4.

The great triumvirate of composers during this musical period all born in the year 1685\, is Bach\, Handel\, and Scarlatti and we hear their music often. However\, this time was particularly rich in composers. \n\nInstructor Louis Nagel will spend some time looking at other giants of the Baroque as well as the works of these three titans. Such composers as Frescobaldi\, Dowland\, Couperin\, and Telemann deserve attention as they wrote some remarkably beautiful and forward looking music. He plans to illustrate at the piano as well as show on line (or if we are back to real live performances by late spring\, on a “boom box”) samples of these composers. They are worthy of our attention and in many cases wrote astonishingly beautiful music.\n\nThe study group will meet Tuesdays from April 6 through April 27. Preregistration 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.

With so many options to choose from\, researchers can be bewildered by the different combinations of parameters for steps such as slice-timing correction\, coregistration\, and normalization. In response to this\, standardized preprocessing pipelines such as fMRIPrep have been developed to give researchers an optimized preprocessing pipeline drawing from many different software packages such as AFNI\, FSL\, and ANTs. The output can then be used with any neuroimaging software for further analysis. In this talk we will review how BIDS\, a standardized format for organizing neuroimaging data\, enables the use of software such as fMRIPrep\, and allows for easier sharing on sites such as OpenNeuro. We will have a practical demonstration of how to organize data into BIDS format\, and how to interpret the output from the fMRIPrep pipeline.\n\nThe format of this workshop will be a lecture followed by a hands-on tutorial of looking at a typical BIDS subject and the output from fMRIPrep. Those who wish to follow along with the practical part of the seminar should have access to a command line (e.g.\, the Terminal that comes with a typical Macintosh operating system\, or Cygwin on Windows)\, and an image viewer\, such as FSL's fsleyes or AFNI's image viewer.\n\nRegister in advance for this meeting: \n https://umich.zoom.us/meeting/register/tJIvc-2hpzMjHdZTYYKyy1ANt6zrLGW16tjO UID:79749-21201312@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/79749 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Biosciences,Brain,Cognitive Neuroscience,Imaging,Neuroimaging,Neuropsychology,Neuroscience,Psychology LOCATION:Off Campus Location CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20210414T183046 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20210406T160000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20210406T170000 SUMMARY:Careers / Jobs:Goldman Sachs Dallas Office - Global Markets - Virtual Informational Session DESCRIPTION:The Global Markets Division facilitates client transactions and makes\nmarkets in fixed income\, equity\, currency and commodity products\,\nprimarily with institutional clients such as corporations\, financial\ninstitutions\, investment funds and governments.

Using the remarkable archive of the League of Socialist Life\, this talk seeks both to understand the wartime experience of helping Jews and to historicize the postwar remembrance of resistance and rescue.\n\nZoom Registration Required: https://umich.zoom.us/webinar/register/8016070931551/WN_8Djh86UrQOCHrjEg8LDtfQ UID:79713-20460252@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/79713 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Jewish Studies LOCATION:Off Campus Location CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20210318T181539 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20210406T160000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20210406T170000 SUMMARY:Livestream / Virtual:Ph.D. Connections Conference: Career Panel—Finance DESCRIPTION:Panelists will describe “a day-in-the-life” in their roles and provide examples of their work that taps the transferable skills gained through their doctoral programs.

This webinar is free and open to the public\, but registration is required. Once you've registered the joining information will be sent to your email.\n\nRegister at:\nhttps://myumi.ch/O4bBQ\n\nHow did people analyze and criticize colonial oppression a century ago? How did they find connection and imagine solidarity with others in distant parts of the world experiencing social injustice? This talk reconsiders the “global” dimensions of Korean anti-imperialism during the Japanese colonial period (1910-45)\, discussing several primary sources such as newspapers\, magazines\, and the work of intellectuals. The Korean anti-imperial movement and its thought were inherently transnational in its scope. Such transnationality developed under shifting political conditions in which the movement leaders\, participants\, and supporters wrestled with Japanese colonial domination. As officials censored criticism of the colonial regime\, activists and writers negotiated the interventions by the colonial power. While some were involved in clandestine organized activities\, others offered critical analyses of colonialism in academic studies\, socialist literature\, and journalistic accounts. \n\nThis talk pays particular attention to the ways that Korean intellectuals developed an interest in colonialism and racism in other parts of the world like India\, Taiwan\, and the United States. During the 1920s and early 1930s\, as people traveled outside of Korea in spite of the border control and surveillance by colonial authority\, intellectuals shaped their transnational perspectives. Through publications and media coverage about empire and global social movements\, interwar Korean intellectuals and readers situated their colonial experience in world transformations and explored the possibilities for decolonization. Socialists\, in particular\, envisioned decolonization in tandem with other forms of social justice\, namely socioeconomic equity for workers. Female leaders on the left\, importantly\, also argued for women’s liberation. In the places where they relocated or visited\, migrants\, international students\, and exiled intellectuals witnessed and participated in different forms of social movements\, which contributed to their visions of global solidarity. \n\nHiroaki Matsusaka is an intellectual and cultural historian of migration\, social movements\, and race and ethnicity across modern East Asia and North America. He is working on a book manuscript that traces the paths of several anti-imperial migrant activists across Korea\, Japan\, and the United States from the early to mid-twentieth century. He received a BA and an MA in Political Science from Waseda University and a PhD in History from the University of Michigan. He was a visiting scholar at the Institute of Korean Studies at Yonsei University\, a Terasaki Postdoctoral Fellow in Japanese Studies at UCLA\, and an assistant professor of history at Texas A&M University-Corpus Christi. In April 2021\, he is starting a tenured position as a lecturer of global studies at Osaka University of Economics.

Rivera-Servera is chair of the Department of Performance Studies and the Department of Theatre in the School of Communication at Northwestern University\, and was recently appointed as the next dean of the College of Fine Arts at the University of Texas at Austin. His research focuses on 20th and 21st Century performance in North America and the Caribbean with special emphasis on the ways categories of race\, ethnicity\, gender\, and sexuality are negotiated across national borders through migratory circuits of circulation and exchange. His work documents a wide array of performance practices ranging from theatre and concert dance to social dance\, popular music\, fashion\, and speech.\n\nHe is author of *Performing Queer Latinidad: Dance\, Sexuality\, Politics* (University of Michigan Press\, 2012)\, a study of the role performance played in the development of Latina/o queer publics in the United States from the mid-1990s to the early 2000s.\n\nHe is currently completing a book manuscript\, *Reggaetón’s Queer Turn: Sexuality\, Abstraction\, and Contemporary Art in the Circum-Caribbean*\, which pursues feminist and queer uptakes of the popular music and dance cultures of reggaetón in circum-Caribbean contemporary art to theorize the role of black aesthetics in the sexual cultural politics of the Spanish speaking Caribbean and its diaspora. He is also conducting fieldwork and archival research towards two other projects: *Exhibiting Performance: Race\, Museum Cultures\, and the Live Event*\, which looks at the ways race has been collected and exhibited in North America and the Caribbean since the mid-1990s and *Choreographing the Latina/o Post-Modern: Puerto Rican Moves in the New York Dance Avant-Garde*\, a cultural history of Puerto Rican participation in the New York City experimental dance scene since the 1980s.\n\nIf you require an accommodation to participate in this event\, please contact the Center for World Performance Studies\, at 734-936-2777.
