SUMMARY:Exhibition:CCPS Exhibition. Modernist Glass from the Polish Past
DESCRIPTION:The glass in this rare collection represents the work of renowned Polish glass artists and designers created between 1960 and 1980. Known as Polskie szkło artystyczne (Polish art glass)\, the works were produced in glass factories in southern Poland and are a feature of many homes throughout Central Europe. The glass masters were trained in schools of art and design and many achieved international fame during their lifetimes. \n\nThe collectors\, Endi Poskovic and his wife Julie Anne Visco\, began acquiring the glass in 2015-16 while Endi was a Fulbright Scholar and Visiting Professor at the Jan Matejko Academy of Fine Arts in Kraków. Scouring flea markets\, antique shops\, and websites\, they continue to acquire pieces and build the collection to this day. We are grateful to them for making this remarkable exhibit possible at CCPS and WCEE.\n\nOrganized by the Copernicus Center for Polish Studies\, this exhibition is co-sponsored by the Penny W. Stamps School of Art & Design and Weiser Center for Europe and Eurasia.\n\nLearn more about the exhibition and the artists at https://myumi.ch/8eVrM\n\nThe exhibit opens on September 15\, 2023 in 1010 Weiser Hall\, 500 Church Street\, Ann Arbor. Contact copernicus@umich.edu to schedule a viewing.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Manga no Ryokou: The “Manga Map” and A Journey Through the Art of Depiction in Japanese Cartography
DESCRIPTION:The exhibit examines the intersection between art\, narrative\, and geography within Japanese cartography. It centers on the titular “manga map”\, a rare Japanese travel map of Japan (ca. 1934) that is densely packed with manga illustrations detailing local folklore\, history\, architecture\, flora/fauna\, and more. The exhibit also includes works of Japanese art and cartography in order to consider the dichotomy between artistry and geographic depiction\, and how that plays with the definition of a “map.”\n\nAlongside the exhibit\, the manga map is also part of a new digital humanities preservation project at the library using the online crowd-sourcing platform Zooniverse\, where the map will be transcribed/translated and made into a fully interactive digital map. More information is available at the exhibit.\n\nBoth the exhibit and the Zooniverse project were created as a summer internship capstone project by Joel Liesenberg\, a dual-degree master’s student in International and Regional Studies focusing in Japanese studies and the School of Information focusing in digital curation.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Shadow and Light : Solidarity and Connection with Iraqi Academics
DESCRIPTION:This exhibit incorporates a selection of work from the Shadow and Light project\, an initiative memorializing Iraqi academics assassinated between 2003-2013\, a timeframe which roughly parallels the US-led invasion and occupation of Iraq. \n\nParticipants from around the world — including Iraqis in diaspora — contributed photographs and personal statements responding to the loss of a particular Iraqi academic listed by the Spanish Campaign against the Occupation and for the Sovereignty of Iraq (La Campaña Estatal contra la Ocupación y por la Soberanía de Iraq / IraqSolidaridad 2005-2013). \n\nThe project emerges from a broader effort undertaken by Iraqis and allies to document the assault on Iraqi scholars\, intellectuals\, and cultural institutions which flared in the wake of the destruction and division wrought by the US-led invasion and occupation. Death threats and assassinations\, politically motivated sectarian violence\, rampant corruption\, and de-Ba’athification policies only further destabilized an educational system already heaving under the devastation of wars\, authoritarian regimes\, and harsh economic sanctions.\n\nThis exhibit invites solidarity with the academics targeted\, but also deeper connection with their experiences and the richness of Iraqi academic life through their written legacies and the testimonies of surviving academics\, many of whom were driven into exile.\n\nThis exhibit in the north lobby is available during Hatcher Library hours (https://myumi.ch/p75dd).\n\nA companion online exhibit\, Tracing Iraqi Artists: From Shadow to Light (https://myumi.ch/n7xre)\, explores modern Iraqi struggle and resistance through contemporary visual art and connection to Iraqi artists and educators. The curators of the online exhibit\, 2023 Michigan Library Scholars Zainab Hakim and Serena Safawi\, hope to center surviving Iraqi artists as they explore their national and artistic identities and respond to the cycles of violence caused by the Iran-Iraq war\, sanctions\, and occupation.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:The Sentimental Archive: Remembering Nubia through Salvage Anthropology
DESCRIPTION:This exhibit showcases select photographs from The American University in Cairo’s Rare Books and Special Collections Library taken by the renowned Egyptian photographer Abd al-Fattah Eid as well as by the Cairo-born Swiss artist Margo Veillon.\n\nIn 1964\, the construction of the Aswan High Dam displaced Nubians from their ancestral villages along the banks of the Nile in Egypt. In the years immediately preceding the dam’s construction\, the American University in Cairo directed a large-scale project of salvage anthropology with funding from the Ford Foundation. \n\nThis endeavor yielded hundreds of photographs of al-nuba al-qadima or “Old Nubia” the term affectionately used by community members. Over the past sixty years\, Nubians have used these images to cultivate a collective memory of a lost homeland. From Aswan to Alexandria and beyond\, community members are salvaging their own stories from this anthropological archive\, reshaping it as a sentimental terrain of solidarity across time\, space\, and circumstance. \n\nThis selection of photographs includes persons\, places\, and practices as well as glimpses of the presence of the photographer and researchers. Both online and offline\, Egyptian Nubians continue to share and re-mediate these photos as they recall their historical displacement and revitalize their heritage for future generations.\n\nThe exhibit is curated by Yasmin Moll\, assistant professor of anthropology\, and coordinated by Nesrien Hamid\, doctoral student in anthropology\, with funding from the University of Michigan's Humanities Collaboratory.\n\nFor a deeper dive\, visit the companion exhibit\, Narrating Nubia\, at the Duderstadt Center on North Campus. It delves into the archaeological\, anthropological\, and community narratives of both ancient and modern-day Nubia spanning Egypt and Sudan.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:WCEE Exhibition. Guardian Passage: The Power of Ukrainian Cultural Memory in the Face of War
DESCRIPTION:*Presented in association with UMS*.\n\nIn Guardian Passage\, artists Irina Bondarenko and Katya Lisova employ the tools and imagery of traditional Ukrainian art forms to face down the existential threat brought about by Russia’s war on Ukraine. Bondarenko’s installation forms a causeway for visitors to encounter Ukrainian poetry and the art form of motanka dolls in a newly imagined configuration. Motanka are guardian symbols assembled from the clothes of deceased ancestors. Bondarenko’s ceramics illustrate motanka in situations responding to the war\; each graphic is accompanied by a poem or a song. These ceramics act as lifeboats\, which ferry the Ukrainian resistance through the flood waters of destruction. Lisova’s series of tapestries explore the power of cultural memory to grow in times of war. Traditional embroidery explodes on the surface of photo collage\, where images of the past and present collide on a single surface. Like a lifeline\, red thread connects these projects\, weaving through clay and fabric\, bringing tradition to bear on new significances and the cultural will to survive. This exhibition is part of the LSA theme semester on “Arts and Resistance.”\n\nIrina Bondarenko is an emerging ceramic artist\, a native of Ukraine\, and a biostatistician at the University of Michigan. Irina has been with the University of Michigan Biostatistics Department for more than 20 years. and published over 50 peer-reviewed articles. Along with her career at the School of Public Health\, for the last 10 years Irina has been pursuing her interest in ceramics. Her work was featured in over a dozen national shows\, the 24th San Angelo National Ceramic Competition\, and the “Strictly Functional Pottery National Show” in 2021 and 2022\, and\, most recently\, the Regional Biennial Juried Sculpture Exhibition at Marshall Fredericks Sculpture Museum.\n\nArtist website: https://www.ibondceramics.com/\n\nKatya Lisova is an artist\, designer\, and art historian. Born in Kyiv\, she is a graduate of the Institute of Decorative and Applied Arts and Design named after Mykhailo Boichuk (2009) and the National Academy of Cultural and Artistic Leaders (2018). Since 2019 she has been teaching at the Kyiv State Academy of Decorative and Applied Arts and Design named after Mykhailo Boichuk. Her work is in the field of artistic textiles and digital graphics. She is also the art director of the “Ukrainian Unofficial” research project\, which compiles archives of Ukrainian unofficial art of the second half of the twentieth century.\n\nArtist website: https://www.flickr.com/photos/196914550@N02/albums\n   \nIf there is anything we can do to make this event accessible to you\, please contact us.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Digital Engrams
DESCRIPTION:The notion that our brains actually create memories first stored and then revisited has been contemplated since the time of Plato and Aristotle. These units of memory\, or engrams\, are poetic portals through which we time travel\, gaining hindsight and foresight\, more meaning and greater wisdom\, and hopes for a future less encumbered. Beyond reminiscences of technicolor sunsets\, perhaps memories are simply the brain's records of endless repetitions and familiar neural pathways.\n\nIn an era of iPhones\, Macbooks\, Instagram\, and Facebook\, everything that’s happened to us in recent memory is at our immediate disposal and made to look better than the original … every day of every year\, every meal of every trip\, every postcard destination. With constant 24/7 access to the newsreel of our own lives\, are we losing our innate ability to remember what matters in the process? \n\nIn Digital Engrams\, L.A. artist Gabriela Ruiz combines sound\, video\, light and sculpture to create unexpected environments that challenge our sensibilities. The installation considers how images function on and off the screen\, and how memories real and curated are the crux of personal and cultural identity. Who do we think we are in this life or the eternal life on the internet hereafter? \n\nRuiz’s spatial inquiries grapple with the potential erasure of the rituals of memorialization and the richness of material culture so important in her own Latinx heritage and to her sense of self.\n\n–Amanda Krugliak\, IH Arts Curator\n\nAbout the artist:\nGabriela Ruiz is a self-taught artist whose practice blends diverse forms of expression and media\, including sculpture\, video\, painting\, and apparel design. Her sculptures incorporate found objects and industrial materials\, such as thrift store furniture and insulation foam. Strongly influenced by growing up in L.A.’s San Fernando Valley to immigrant parents from Mexico\, Ruiz’s practice is a reflection of the DIY work ethic she was raised under\, the vibrancy of Mexican cultural and artistic traditions\, and her exposure to subculture and fantasy at a young age as a means to escape the realities of daily life.\n\nOne of L.A.’s rising young talents\, she presented her solo show Stream at the Palm Springs Art Museum in 2022\, part of the museum's Outburst project.\n\n*Gabriela Ruiz is the Jean Yokes Woodhead Visiting Artist at the Institute for the Humanities. This exhibition is part of LSA's fall 2023 Art & Resistance theme semester.*

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Holding Places Exhibition by Satchel Lee
DESCRIPTION:Gallery Hours: Mon-Fri\, 9 am-5 pm or by appointment: serrag@med.umich.edu\nBorn and raised in New York City\, Satchel Lee is a multi-media artist whose work can best be described as portraiture. Through collaborations with her immediate community\, and also using herself as a subject\, Lee draws inspiration from the quotidian\, creating offbeat images that aim to preserve this moment in time\, (re) examine memories (especially those clouded by confusion) all the while asking questions around identity and existence.\n\nLee holds a BFA from the Maurice Kanbar Institute of Film and Television at New York University’s Tisch School of the Arts. She is currently pursuing her MFA in Photography at School of the Art Institute of Chicago.\n\nIn Lee’s photographic exploration\, she investigates the profound connection between places and structures and the echoes of trauma that inhabit them. “Holding Places” is an exhibition that immerses viewers into a visual narrative\, inviting them to witness the power of space as holders and conduits for personal memory.\n\nBy reconstructing these places by hand in model scale and rendering them not as they were\, but how she experienced them\, she is able to navigate intimate details and hidden narratives that exist within them. The process of crafting these miniatures becomes a meditative contemplation\, giving Lee time to sit and reflect on these past events.\n\nThrough Lee’s lens\, they capture the visual manifestations of the ghosts of the past. The photographs offer glimpses into spaces where anguish\, conflict and distress have left their imprints\, sometimes visible\, sometimes buried beneath layers of time (and self preservation).

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Illustrating the Renaissance Book: From Illumination to Woodcut
DESCRIPTION:Enjoy a selection of manuscripts and early printed books from the 15th to the 17th centuries that were illustrated with illuminations and woodcuts. Throughout the European Renaissance (1300-1700)\, many book illustrations were exclusively ornamental\, while others focused on enhancing the meaning of the text. However\, as the pages on display attest\, all these illustrations share a common ground: they reveal the aesthetic and intellectual fashions first proposed by Italian artists of the 1400s\, who were strongly committed to the recovery of the past of classical antiquity.\n\nThe word “Illumination\,” from the Latin illuminare\, “to enlighten or to illuminate\,” refers to the embellishment of a manuscript or early printed book with luminous colors\, notably gold and silver. This illumination was prominent in the frontispiece\, or first page of text\, which included the decoration of its borders and initial letter\, and even miniatures\, that is\, scenes with an independent narrative. With the introduction of movable-type printing in 1454\, these illuminations would be gradually replaced by woodcuts\, which were printed from a woodblock that had been cut by knife along the grain of the wood.\n\nAvailable during Hatcher Gallery Exhibit Room hours (https://myumi.ch/2m7d4).\n\nJoin us on September 13 for a talk by Pablo Alvarez\, curator of the exhibit.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Sarah Buckius: !!!techn010ffspring!!!
DESCRIPTION:Come explore the intricate and interlocking world of Sarah Buckius’ “!!!techn010ffspring!!!” where feminist art meets science and the history of invention. On view at Lane Hall as part of U-M Arts Initiative’s themed semester on Arts & Resistance\, “!!!techn010ffspring!!!” critiques the patriarchal paradigms of the STEM field by highlighting the history of women inventors. This exhibition brings conceptual invention in fine art and performance to the disciplines of information technology\, robotics\, and engineering. Buckius creates “technoffsprings”: complex machines that weave together the history of inventions related to the gendered labor of women\, especially regarding women’s social roles as caregivers and subjects of care themselves. \nTrained as an engineer and an artist\, Buckius’ machines are intentionally complex\, layered\, and illogical or absurdly logical. In the nature of women’s caregiving\, they teeter between order and chaos. Her “digital tinkerings” tell epic tales of motherhood\, technology\, female bodies\, and commerce—both personal and externalized through women’s inventions and early forays that bridged caregiving and commerce. Buckius' work proposes improvisation as a form of absurdist resistance to\, and alternative to\, patriarchal\, capitalist\, production-based\, and seemingly rational\, useful\, logical systems. \n“!!!techn010ffspring!!!” is open for viewing M-F\, 9am-4pm or by appointment. University of Michigan instructors can email LaneHallExhibits@umich.edu to request a group tour or schedule a class visit.\nThis  project was made possible by a grant from the Arts Initiative at the University of Michigan and co-sponsored by U-M’s Department of Women’s and Gender Studies and the Institute for Research on Women and Gender with support from the Santa Cruz County Arts Council.

Located in the former Homestake gold mine in Lead\, South Dakota\, the Sanford Underground Research Facility (SURF) houses experiments that give us a better understanding of the universe. The location—deep underground—provides a near-perfect environment for experiments that need to escape the constant bombardment of cosmic radiation\, which can interfere with the detection of rare physics events. Built in collaboration with the University of Michigan\, the LUX-Zeplin is the world’s most sensitive dark matter experiment. SURF also hosts experiments in biology\, geology and engineering.\n\nGina Gibson is an internationally exhibiting artist and professor of Graphic Design at Black Hills State University. In 2019\, Gibson became the first artist in residence at the Sanford Underground Research Facility. Gibson's work celebrates the search deep below the surface for beauty in the old and new\, the light and dark\, and the known and unknown.\n\nUN/EARTH was developed in collaboration with the U-M Department of Physics\, the Sanford Underground Research Facility and Black Hills State University.

DESCRIPTION:Stop by the Collections Case display in the museum’s main atrium\, behind the mastodons\, to see Nature’s Pharmacy.\n\nAugust 2023–July 2024\n\nPlants and fungi play a vital role in medicine due to the diversity of chemical defense mechanisms they evolved to safeguard them against pathogens\, herbivores\, and competitors. From its inception\, the U-M Herbarium has cataloged and described plants—both poisonous and beneficial to human health—and still serves that role today. See specimens of these plant and fungal “friends” and “foes” from the U-M Herbarium collection and learn about how the collection is used for drug discovery today.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Brown Bag Seminar | Exotic energy injection in the early Universe
DESCRIPTION:The production of electromagnetically interacting particles in the early Universe is a generic prediction of many extensions of both the standard models of particle physics and cosmology. In this talk\, I will give an overview of recent progress in understanding how injected particles deposit their energy into regular matter\, and highlight some novel signatures of new physics that are well within current and near-future experimental reach.

SUMMARY:Presentation:Rational duality groups and the Cohomology of SL_n(Z)
DESCRIPTION:Certain classes of groups\, such as the special linear groups over integers\, satisfy a (co)homological duality property that allows one to study their rational cohomology groups. I'll discuss a criterion to test when a group satisfies this duality\, and see how in the case of SLnZ this comes down to the fact that the Tits building is homotopy equivalent to a wedge of spheres.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Respond/ Resist/ Rethink 2023
DESCRIPTION:In conjunction with the Fall 2023 Theme Semester: Arts &amp\; Resistance\, Stamps Gallery is partnering with the U‑M Arts Initiative to expand the 4th annual Respond/Resist/Rethink student art exhibition. All undergraduate and graduate students enrolled at the Ann Arbor\, Dearborn\, or Flint U-M campuses in Fall 2023 are invited to apply to this juried exhibition that explores what can be done to create more just and equitable futures in the 21st Century and beyond.\n The 2023 exhibition will include art of a variety of mediums and will be displayed in four galleries across all three U-M campuses\, including Stamps Gallery (Central Campus\, Ann Arbor)\, Duderstadt Center Gallery (North Campus\, Ann Arbor)\, Riverbank Arts (Flint)\, and Stamelos Gallery (Dearborn). \nThe arts play a central role in shaping cultural and political narratives. Artists\, designers and creatives of diverse backgrounds have been at the forefront of social change by offering alternate models and ways of thinking\, making and creating that do not perpetuate dominant regimes. Creative processes have been used time and again to reveal under-told stories and to resist simple narratives. Regardless of one&#039\;s personal politics\, an artwork&#039\;s potential to change hearts and minds is urgent and necessary. \nRespond/ Resist/ Rethink invites students to leverage their creativity to (re)imagine what they can do to create a more just and equitable community in the spaces that they inhabit.\nThroughout the spring\, summer\, and fall of 2023\, U-M students submitted artworks through an open call process. A final list of artworks were chosen for the exhibition by a Selection Committee made up of U-M faculty\, staff\, and students. \n\nThe 2023 RRR Selection Committee members are: \nPedram Baldari\, Jim Cogswell\, Laura Cotton\, Nalani Duarte\, Adrienne Frank\, Benjamin Gaydos\, Kathryn Grabowski-Khairullah\, Quinn Hunter\, Ikalanni Jahi\, Jennifer Junkermeier-Khan\, Joe Levickas\, Srimoyee Mitra\, Kathi Reister\, Chloe Schans\, and Grace Sirman. \nThe 2023 RRR Curatorial Committee members are: \nLaura Cotton\, Nalani Duarte\, Benjamin Gaydos\, Kathryn Grabowski-Khairullah\, Srimoyee Mitra\, and Kathi Reister. \nThe 2023 RRR Organizing Committee members are: Chris Audain\, Adrienne Frank\, Kathryn Grabowski-Khairullah\, Jennifer Junkermeier-Khan\, Joe Levickas\, Srimoyee Mitra\, and Joe Rohrer.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:The Blessings of the Mystery
DESCRIPTION:The Blessings of the Mystery examines themes of socio-economic\, environmental activism\, encounters between history and memory\, Indigenous rights\, and the formation and distribution of knowledge. The exhibition examines the Amistad Dam in Del Rio\, the largest dam in Rio Grande that is jointly managed by the United States and Mexico and other contested sites in the region to unravel layered histories\, connections\, and tensions present in West Texas through film\, sculpture\, installation\, collage\, and drawing. \nThe experimental documentary film Teaching of the Hands is the center point of the exhibition - as it combines oral histories\, reenactments\, and archival footage to narrate a complex history of colonization\, migration\, and ecological precarity\, Told from the perspective of Juan Mancias\, Chairman of the Carrizo Comecrudo Tribe of Texas\, scenes from the present day are woven together with those from 4\,000 years in the past to investigate the transformation of Somi Se’k* by way of industry\, infrastructure\, and private property. \nEmerging from the research to create the film\, the exhibition includes an immersive installation of surveying flags and tools\, series of drawings and collages\, and a collection of original watercolors from the 1930s by artists and amateur archaeologists Forrest and Lula Kirkland that depict the ancient rock art of the Lower Pecos\,that expand on concepts in The Teachings of the Hands. The watercolors\, rarely seen plein air paintings\, are on loan from the Texas Archaeological Research Laboratory at the University of Texas\, and document the original forms and vibrant colors of murals that were still visible in the 1930s before flooding\, erosion\, and human interaction damaged or destroyed them. This exhibition has been shown in various iterations at Ballroom Marfa\, the University of Texas at Austin\, the Rubin Center for the Visual Arts\, the Museum of Modern Art in New York and University of California\, Santa Barbara\, and will be shown in Michigan and the midwest for the first time. The Blessings of the Mystery brings together an expansive body of work that sheds light on vital histories\, living memories and Indigenous knowledge-systems embedded within the land well before the colonial boundaries between Mexico and the US were established - advocating for environmental justice and recognition of Indigenous rights and cosmologies.

SUMMARY:Careers / Jobs: Fehribach Center: Paid Internships for Students with Physical Disabilities
DESCRIPTION:\"Come meet Larry Markle and Carlos Taylor from the Gregory S. Fehribach Center on Wednesday\, November 29\, at 2pm for a virtual presentation on the Fehribach Center’s internship program for students with physical disabilities. \n\nThe Gregory S. Fehribach Center in Indianapolis hosts an internship program for college students with physical disabilities (mobility\, orthopedic\, visual\, & hearing) in which students are placed in a paid internship in a position that correlates with their academic major.  Internships are very important in preparing college students for employment after graduation\, and this is especially true for students with disabilities. A good internship experience gives the student real-world workexperience and important networking opportunities that will help in finding equitable employment after graduation.\n\nTo this point\, 195 students from 40 colleges have participated in a total of 400 internships\, with 63students interning in the summer of 2023.  Internships are available for students who just finished their freshman year of college up to graduates within the last calendar year\, and internships can be provided for nearlyall academic majors.  Among the 39 employers who have hosted Fehribach Center interns are: Eskenazi Health\, Eli Lilly\, Cummins\, Ice Miller\, BraunAbility\, the Indiana Pacers\, the Indianapolis Children’s Museum\, and Christel House International.  In addition to the internship\, housing and transportation assistance is provided as needed\, and impactful professional development opportunities are offered for Fehribach Center interns. \n\nMore information about the Fehribach Center is attached and on the Fehribach Center’s website: https://www.eskenazihealth.edu/programs/Fehribach-Center.  Please contact Fehribach Center staff members Larry Markle (larry.markle@eskenazihealth.edu) or Carlos Taylor (carlos.taylor@eskenazihealth.edu) if you have any questions.\"

SUMMARY:Careers / Jobs:How To Find The \"Right Fit\" In A Teaching Job? (Research)
DESCRIPTION:Nervous You Might Make The Wrong Decision When Selecting A School?\n\nWell\, that has a name and it’s called DECIDOPHOBIA and it’s the fear of making decisions ……\n\nI know\, I know\, that’s a little dramatic\, however making the wrong decision about where to start teachingcan impact your confidence\, health\, personal life\, and the length of time you stay in the profession.\n\nThe problem is most students transitioning to a teaching career after graduation are selecting jobs a little blind because they don’t get all the information they need to make an informed decision. They don’t know what they don’t know as they start their career\, AND that’s the norm…\n\nSo\, I want to provide you an opportunity to BE CONFIDENT in knowing what you should know about the school/district as you start your teaching career.\n\nThat's the purpose of this information session - How To Find The Right Fit In A Teaching Job(Research) hosted by Ray Singletary\, Supervisor of Teacher Talent and Recruitment for Manassas City Public Schools.  \n\nTo give you a step by step process thatyou can use to research any School district\, while giving you simple strategies to help you be confident that you found the right fit.\n\nWe will focus on the following:\n1) Before You Apply\n2) Before The Interview\n3) After The Interview \n\nJoin us and get the information you need to find the right fit as you begin your journey into a teaching career.\nRay Singletary\nSupervisor of Teacher Talent and Recruitment \nManassas City Public Schools\n

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Learning Seminar in Algebraic Combinatorics: Canonical form of a convex polytope via its dual volume
DESCRIPTION:The main goal of this talk is to introduce a method to compute the canonical form of a convex polytope by computing the volume of its polar dual polytope. We will first define the notion of a dual polytope and then compute the volume in a concrete example. Then we will give a proof that the dual volume actually gives the canonical form of the original convex polytope. Finally\, we will introduce a more efficient way to compute the dual volume when the polytope has many vertices but few sides\, via the Filliman Duality\, which roughly says the volume of the polytope can be obtained from triangulating its dual.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Michigan Lectures in Algebraic Geometry: New perspectives on the topology of algebraic maps I
DESCRIPTION:Given a proper algebraic map f : X--> Y\, the decomposition theorem of Beilinson\, Bernstein\, Deligne\, and Gabber provides powerful tools to the study of its topology. This endows the cohomology of X with an extra structure\, known as the perverse filtration\, which measures the singularities of the map f. In recent years\, the decomposition theorem and the induced perverse filtration have been found to share surprising connections to other branches of mathematics\; these include non-abelian Hodge theory (the P=W conjecture)\, enumerative geometry (Donaldson-Thomas and BPS invariants)\, planar singularities (DAHA\, knot invariants)\, and hyper-Kähler geometries (Hodge modules\, motivic techniques). In this lecture series\, I will discuss some of these developments. If time permits\, open questions will be presented and discussed.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Time-inconsistent mean-field stopping problems: A regularized equilibrium approach
DESCRIPTION:ABSTRACT: We study the mean-field Markov decision process (MDP) with the centralized stopping under the non-exponential discount. The problem differs fundamentally from most existing studies due to its time-inconsistent natural and also the continuous state space. Unlike many previous studies on time-inconsistent stopping\, we are interested in the general discount function without imposing any structural conditions such as “decreasing impatience”. As a result\, the study on the relaxed equilibrium becomes necessary as the pure-strategy equilibrium may not exist in general. We use the method of regularization to prove the existence of the relaxed equilibrium\, and at the same time provide approximation results of it. We also establish some connections between the mean-field MDP and the N-agent MDP. As a third advantage of the regularization method\, we prove that the regularized equilibrium is an $\epsilon$-equilibrium of N-agent problem when $N$ is sufficiently large and the regularization constant $\lambda$ is sufficiently small.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Weekly DCMB / CCMB Seminar featuring Xiaojie Qiu (incoming Assist. Prof. at Stanford)
DESCRIPTION:Abstract:\n\nSingle-cell RNA-seq\, together with RNA velocity and metabolic labeling\, reveals cellular states and transitions at unprecedented resolution. Fully exploiting these data\, however\, requires kinetic models capable of unveiling governing regulatory functions. In the first part of my talk\, I will introduce an analytical framework dynamo (https://github.com/aristoteleo/dynamo-release) and highlight dynamo's power to overcome fundamental limitations of conventional splicing-based RNA velocity analyses to enable accurate velocity estimations on a metabolically labeled human hematopoiesis scRNA-seq dataset. Furthermore\, differential geometry analyses reveal mechanisms driving early megakaryocyte appearance and elucidate asymmetrical regulation within the PU.1-GATA1 circuit. Leveraging the least-action-path method\, dynamo accurately predicts drivers of numerous hematopoietic transitions. Finally\, in silico perturbations predict cell-fate diversions induced by gene perturbations. Dynamo\, thus\, represents an important step in advancing quantitative and predictive theories of cell-state transitions. Cells do not live in a vacuum\, but in a milieu defined by cell–cell communication that can be quantified via recent advances in spatial transcriptomics. In my second section of my talk\, I will talk about Spateo\, a general framework for quantitative spatiotemporal modeling of single-cell resolution spatial transcriptomics. Spateo develops a comprehensive framework of cell-cell interaction to reveal spatial effects of niche factors and cell type-specific ligand-receptor interactions. Furthermore\, Spateo reconstructs 3D models of whole embryos\, and performs 3D morphometric analyses. Lastly\, Spateo introduces the concept of \"morphometric vector field\" of cell migrations and integrates spatial differential geometry to unveil regulatory programs underlying various organogenesis patterns of Drosophila and mouse. Thus\, Spateo enables the study of the ecology of organs at a molecular level in 3D space\, beyond isolated single cells. Moving forward\, my lab will try to integrate advances in machine learning and advances in genomics to learn spatially and temporally resolved models of cell fate transition at whole mouse embryo level in 3D space.\n\nhttps://umich-health.zoom.us/j/93929606089?pwd=SHh6R1FOQm8xMThRemdxTEFMWWpVdz09

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Who Are the Hand-to-Mouth?
DESCRIPTION:Many households hold little wealth. In standard precautionary savings models these households should not only display higher marginal propensities to consume (MPCs)\, but also higher future consumption growth. In contrast\, we see from the PSID that such “hand-to-mouth” households do not display higher growth in spending. They also exhibit greater volatility of spending and adjust their spending to a greater extent through the number of categories consumed. Consistent with a role for preference heterogeneity\, the panel data show that it is persistent differences across households\, not current assets\, that predict low consumption growth and other spending differences for the hand-to-mouth households. To identify the extent of preference heterogeneity\, we consider the model of Kaplan and Violante (2014) with both liquid and illiquid assets\, but allow heterogeneity in preferences. To match the data\, many poor hand-to-mouth must be relatively impatient and have a high inter-temporal elasticity of substitution (IES). The model shows that preferences predominantly explain the higher MPCs for low-asset households. Preference heterogeneity notably increases the spending impact of fiscal transfers\, but only if targeted\, while reducing that from interest rate cuts.\n\n\nThis talk is presented by the Macroeconomics Seminar\, sponsored by the Department of Economics with generous gifts given through the Michael Beauregard Fund for Macroeconomics and the Economics Strategic Fund.

SUMMARY:Reception / Open House:Respond/ Resist/ Rethink Celebration at Duderstadt Gallery\, Ann Arbor
DESCRIPTION:Join us for a celebration of Respond/Resist/Rethink: An Exhibition of Student Art for Change at Duderstadt Center Gallery\, U-M Ann Arbor. The exhibition features work by U-M students from across all three campuses. Light refreshments will be served. \nIn conjunction with the Fall 2023 Theme Semester: Arts &amp\; Resistance\, Stamps Gallery is partnering with the U‑M Arts Initiative to expand the 4th annual Respond/​Resist/​Rethink student art exhibition. All undergraduate and graduate students enrolled at the Ann Arbor\, Dearborn\, or Flint U‑M campuses in Fall 2023 are invited to apply to this juried exhibition that explores what can be done to create more just and equitable futures in the 21st Century and beyond.\nThe 2023 exhibition will include art of a variety of mediums and will be displayed in four galleries across all three U‑M campuses\, including Stamps Gallery (Central Campus\, Ann Arbor)\, Duderstadt Center Gallery (North Campus\, Ann Arbor)\, Riverbank Arts (Flint)\, and Stamelos Gallery (Dearborn).\nThe arts play a central role in shaping cultural and political narratives. Artists\, designers and creatives of diverse backgrounds have been at the forefront of social change by offering alternate models and ways of thinking\, making and creating that do not perpetuate dominant regimes. Creative processes have been used time and again to reveal under-told stories and to resist simple narratives. Regardless of one’s personal politics\, an artwork’s potential to change hearts and minds is urgent and necessary. Respond/​Resist/​Rethink invites students to leverage their creativity to (re)imagine what they can do to create a more just and equitable community in the spaces that they inhabit.

SUMMARY:Social / Informal Gathering:A book event with Laura Meckler
DESCRIPTION:Literati is proud to welcome Laura Meckler to present and discuss her book Dream Town: Shaker Heights and the Quest for Racial Equity. Laura will be joined in conversation by Dr. Brianne Dotson.\n\nAbout the Book: Can a group of well-intentioned people fulfill the promise of racial integration in America?\n\nIn this searing and intimate examination of the ideals and realities of racial integration\, award-winning Washington Post journalist Laura Meckler tells the story of a decades-long pursuit in Shaker Heights\, Ohio\, and uncovers the roadblocks that have threatened progress time and again--in housing\, in education\, and in the promise of shared community.\n\nIn the late 1950s\, Shaker Heights began groundbreaking work that would make it a national model for housing integration. And beginning in the seventies\, it was known as a crown jewel in the national move to racially integrate schools. The school district built a reputation for academic excellence and diversity\, serving as a model for how white and Black Americans can thrive together. Meckler--herself a product of Shaker Heights--takes a deeper look into the place that shaped her\, investigating its complicated history and its ongoing challenges in order to untangle myth from truth. She confronts an enduring\, and troubling\, question--if Shaker Heights has worked so hard at racial equity\, why does a racial academic achievement gap persist?\n\nIn telling the stories of the Shakerites who have built and lived in this community\, Meckler asks: What will it take to fulfill the promise of racial integration in America? What compromises are people of all races willing to make? What does success look like\, and has Shaker achieved it? The result is a complex and masterfully reported portrait of a place that\, while never perfect\, has achieved more than most and a road map for communities that seek to do the same.\n\nLaura Meckler (she/her/hers) is national education writer for the Washington Post\, where she covers education across the country as well as national education policy and politics. She previously reported on the White House\, presidential politics\, immigration\, and health care for the Wall Street Journal\, as well as health and social policy for the Associated Press. Her honors include a Nieman Fellowship and Livingston Award for National Reporting\, and she was part of a team that won the George Polk Award for Justice Reporting. She lives in Washington\, D.C.\, with her husband and two sons.\n\nDr. Brianne Dotson (she/her/hers) is the mother of two confident\, creative\, and inquisitive little girls who attend Ann Arbor Public Schools. She also serves as a Sr. Program Associate at WestEd\, a national nonpartisan research and service agency\, where she specializes in equity-focused systems change for state departments of education and school districts. Prior to WestEd\, Brianne served as an English language arts teacher\, elementary school principal\, and a director at the University of Michigan. Dr. Dotson holds an Ed.D. from Michigan State University\, an Ed.M. from the Harvard Graduate School of Education\, and a B.A. from the University of Southern California.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Michigan Outdoor Leadership Education Series (MOLES)
DESCRIPTION:Have you found yourself wishing to explore Michigan’s beautiful landscapes\, but find the idea of “outdoorsiness” to be a little daunting? Let Adventure Leadership show you the way!\n\nThe Michigan Outdoor Leadership Education Series (MOLES) will empower you with the skills and confidence needed to take the next step in your outdoors journey. Our workshop leaders will be your guides\, facilitating experiences that will feed your enthusiasm for exploration\, while also sharing a more authentic story of the public lands upon which we recreate.\nWe will take care of the gear — all you have to do is show up\, ready to engage. No prior experience is needed. You can start as a complete beginner\, or build on the skills you already have. Each workshop will focus on key outdoor competencies\, such as navigation\, how to pack a backpack\, campsite cooking\, and Leave No Trace principles. Participants who attend 6 out of the 8 sessions offered will not only walk away with an expansive wilderness skillset but will also qualify for a discount on rental gear for their own future excursion.\nIf you have dreams of backpacking over Spring Break\, or simply sleeping outdoors successfully for the first time\, this is the opportunity for you to prepare for whatever adventure you seek next.\nWorkshop sessions will take place on Wednesdays from 7 – 8:30pm during the fall semester. Please bring a water bottle and wear shoes and clothes you are comfortable with walking in and getting a little dirty. Feel free to bring along something with which to take notes (notebook\, laptop\, phone).\n

SUMMARY:Performance:Don Julin Trio
DESCRIPTION:New eclectic music from Billy Strings’ duet partner\n\nWe remember Don Julin from the amazing duet shows that he did with Billy Strings\, announcing a monster new talent. But there’s more to this Michigan musician than that. Ever wonder what “Red-Haired Boy” would sound like with a James Brown type of groove? Or what about songs titled “Muppets On The Titanic” or “You Make My Skin Crawl”? The Don Julin Trio\, featuring Joe Wilson (dobro) and Kevin Gills (bass)\, takes listeners through a genre-bending instrumental journey that includes hints of bluegrass\, jazz\, Latin\, funk\, film score\, and even a bit of baby boomer rock. The Don Julin Trio includes three of Michigan’s top sidemen. The job of a sideman is to make the “star” look and sound great\; these guys have helped many local and national “stars” and bands look and sound great. A short list includes Steppin’ In It\, Claudia Schmidt\, Greg Brown\, Billy Strings\, Wayne Hancock\, Neptune Quartet\, Wilson Brothers\, Rusty Blaides\, Bill Kirchen\, Kenny Olson\, and others. In this setting\, they can shine the light on each other\, showcasing their musical compositions and instrumental abilities.\n\nPlease visit https://mutotix.umich.edu/4386/4387 for more detail.
