SUMMARY:Exhibition:Guardians: Spirits of Protection
DESCRIPTION:This fall\, the Residential College Art Gallery proudly presents Guardians: Spirits of Protection\, an exhibition of evocative figurative sculptures by renowned artist Ann Savageau. The exhibition will be on display from August 26 to November 2\, 2024.\n\nWe invite the university community and the general public to explore this moving collection that delves into themes of loss\, grief\, healing\, and protection. The seventeen life-size figures\, crafted from found objects and beach flotsam\, are a poignant response to the tragedies in Savageau’s life\, including the loss of her three children. Through this deeply personal and powerful work\, Savageau reimagines discarded materials as symbols of new life and resilience\, reflecting the healing power of art.\n\nAnn Savageau will be in residence in Ann Arbor and the Residential College from September 16-20 and October 20-25\, 2024. During her stay\, you are warmly invited to join us for a special artist reception on October 23\, from 4:30 to 6:00 pm in the Gallery. Prior to the reception\, there will be an artist's talk in the Keene Theater at 3:30 pm\, where Savageau will share insights into her creative process and the inspiration behind Guardians.\n\nAnn Savageau\, a former Studio Art instructor at the Residential College from 1978 to 2002\, is not only an artist but also an activist and educator. Her contributions to the Prison Creative Arts Project\, where she taught a weekly art workshop at Jackson Prison for four years\, showcase her commitment to using art as a tool for social change.\n\nDon't miss this opportunity to witness the transformative impact of Savageau's work and engage with her during her residency.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Mrs. Dalloway and WWI: Home Front and War Front
DESCRIPTION:This exhibit explores the characters of Mrs. Dalloway through the lens of WWI and its aftershocks. It looks at those who fought in the trenches and those who watched from afar.\n\n[The exhibit includes references to suicide and Post Traumatic Stress Disorder\, which might be distressing for some visitors. Viewer discretion is advised.]\n\nWhile all of the action in Virginia Woolf’s modernist masterpiece takes place on a single day\, as preparations are made for Clarissa Dalloway’s evening party\, Woolf’s stream of consciousness writing takes us in the characters’ minds all the way from English drawing rooms to colonial India to the trenches of World War I.\n\nCheck today's Hatcher Gallery Exhibit Room hours: https://myumi.ch/PkQ2x

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Steve Glazer Art Exhibition
DESCRIPTION:Steve Glazer earned his BFA in art with a concentration in ceramics from Eastern Michigan University\, a master’s degree in art from Central Michigan University\, and MFA in fine arts and ceramics from Indiana State University. Since 2004\, Glazer has been lead faculty and head of ceramics at Henry Ford College\, and former faculty of Concord College (WV) and North Dakota State University. His artwork has been exhibited throughout the country.\n\nThroughout his adult life the art of Steve Glazer has been done as a response to his environment. From a series of shadow box type pieces containing life like ceramic fish while teaching at a Catholic woman’s college\, to building 8’ tall ceramic “skyscrapers” that barely fit into the display spaces while teaching in North Dakota\, where no skyscrapers exist\, and then creating installations commenting on living in Appalachia while teaching in southern West Virginia. After returning home to Detroit\, Glazer began his griot series\, the “Motor City Griot Society” masks\, the faces of the superheroes that will save Detroit\, and more recently the “Motor City Griot Patrol” creatures that will protect the city of Detroit.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Susan Moran Exhibition
DESCRIPTION:Susan Moran’s work is inspired by the natural world and our place in it.  She collects and arranges images\, builds and subtracts\, and uses processes that suit the concepts and gives the pieces a reason for existing as textiles.  Simultaneously she strives to make the medium  influence the  outcome in such a way that cloth and image meld together. Moran uses  silkscreen\, shibori\, and stitching to embed images from her daily walks into the fabric. it's important that the work builds slowly\, involving meditative processes that connect her to the cloth and the source of the design.\n\nGallery hours:  Monday-Friday\, 9 am to 5pm or by appointment serrag@med.umich.edu

SUMMARY:Exhibition:The Butch Closet
DESCRIPTION:In the multi-media installation *The Butch Closet*\, artist Phranc illustrates her life stories as a queer artist\, Jewish lesbian folk singer\, and \"cardboard cobbler.\" By meticulously re-creating personal objects and pieces of clothing out of paper\, cardboard\, thread\, and paint\, she revisits her own history\, contextualizing her experiences as an iconic performer\, and maker\, constructing\, reconstructing\, and re-imagining her image against a larger historical context of second-wave feminism and queer activism. The institute's presentation of *The Butch Closet* is the second iteration of the project\, offering a more intimate and immersive engagement with Phranc's sculptural works. As part of the installation\, visitors can peer into a closet built in the center of the gallery designed by the artist. Conceptually\, the space shifts from inside to outside\, public and private\, and explores themes of visibility and that which remains inaccessible or unseen.\n\nAbout the artist:\nPhranc is a jewish lesbian folksinger and queer artist who uses song\, painting and sculpture to champion personal identities and illustrate the struggle\, survival\, and victory of the queer individual. An internationally acclaimed and award winning performer. Phranc’s work integrates humor and a butch lesbian aesthetic. Her current project\, Phranc Talk: The Butch Closet\, is a multi-media memoir that spans her 40-year career. Phranc lives and works in Santa Monica\, California and Vancouver\, British Columbia.\n\n*Phranc is the 2024 Woodhead Visiting Artist at the Institute for the Humanities.*

SUMMARY:Exhibition:A Gathering
DESCRIPTION:Welcome. Make Yourself At Home.\n \nA Gathering brings together the newest works of art to enter UMMA’s collection — many on display here for the first time. \n \nAs a free\, public museum\, UMMA staff takes care of art for the benefit of the community and society at large. The works on view in this exhibition\, all brought into the Museum between 2019 and the present\, shows how institutions like UMMA are becoming more permeable to societal challenges\, and more nimble in responding to them in service to all in their communities. In this exhibition you will find works that reflect on how global migrations\, race\, gender\, and ecological change shape the way we engage with the world and inform our visions for the future.\n \nThis collection of artistic engagements with issues give us tools to envision who we want to be as individuals\, as a museum\, and as a society\, connected to one another across space and experience.\n \nSo gather here to take in these latest works of art brought here for you. Gather here to be engulfed in their forms and meanings\, to discuss their takes\, to learn\, to disagree. Gather to relax\, make a friend\, drink a coffee\, finish the daily Wordle. Gather to feel full\, to be moved and inspired by all the possible imaginations of what is yet to come.\n \nCurated by Félix Zamora Gómez Irving Stenn\, Jr. Fellow in Public Humanities & Museum Pedagogy\n\nLead support for this exhibition is provided by Lizzie and Jonathan Tisch\, the Richard and Rosann Noel Endowment\, and the University of Michigan Office of the Provost.\n

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Craft Lecture: Crowded Characters
DESCRIPTION:Login here (no pre-registration needed): https://tinyurl.com/ZellWriters24\n\nSeats are limited and are offered on a first come\, first served basis\; please arrive early to secure a spot.\n\nZell Visiting Writers Series craft lectures are free and open to the public\, and will be offered both virtually (via Zoom) and in person (in The Robert Hayden Conference Room\, Angell Hall #3222). Please contact kimjulie@umich.edu with any questions or accommodation needs.\n\nOf her lecture\, Leslie says\, \"In writing characters—and writing ourselves as characters—how can we create figures on the page that are as complex as the people we meet and love and loathe in real life? How can we write every character so that she contains not just one self but many selves? If you think of every character as a guesthouse\, who would all the guests be? Who are all the selves dwelling inside? This craft lecture will explore the construction of character as a dilemma (and thrill!) facing that fiction and nonfiction writers alike: When you write first-person narratives\, how can you construct your own character on the page as something multiple\, complex\, and surprising? How can you make room for as many versions of yourself as possible—as many versions are necessary? How does paying close attention to experience—to any scene\, any relationship\, any memory—not just invite but demand this multiplicity of selfhood\, in fiction and nonfiction alike: that every character be not one way\, but many ways\; that she want not just one thing\, but many things\; that she do something not for one reason\, but for many reasons. How can we imagine every character not just as one version of herself but as many versions of herself\, a crowded room full of many different figures: the ghosts of prior selves\, the fantasies of future selves\, the self in all its various relationships\, a quicksilver presence transforming across roles and time.\"\n\n\nLeslie S. Jamison is a *New York Times* bestselling author whose writing blends personal narrative\, cultural criticism\, and literary reportage.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Statistics Department Seminar Series: Gongjun Xu\, Associate Professor\, Department of Statistics\, University of Michigan
DESCRIPTION:Abstract: Generalized latent factor analysis not only provides a useful latent embedding approach in statistics and machine learning\, but also serves as a widely used tool across various scientific fields\, including psychometrics\, econometrics\, and social sciences. Ensuring the identifiability of latent factors and the loading matrix is essential for the model's estimability and interpretability\, and various identifiability conditions have been employed by practitioners. However\, fundamental statistical inference issues for latent factors and factor loadings under commonly used identifiability conditions remain largely unaddressed. In this work\, we focus on the maximum likelihood estimation for generalized factor models and establish statistical inference properties under popularly used identifiability conditions. The developed theory is further illustrated through numerical simulations and an application to a personality assessment dataset.\n\nhttps://sites.google.com/umich.edu/gongjunxu

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Unsettling Histories: Legacies of Slavery and Colonialism
DESCRIPTION:Organized as a response to the Museum’s recent acquisition of Titus Kaphar’s Flay (James Madison)\, this upcoming reinstallation of one of our most prominent gallery spaces forces us to grapple with our collection of European and American art\, 1650-1850.\n \nIn recent times\, growing public awareness of the continued reverberations of the legacy of slavery and colonization has challenged museums to examine the uncomfortable histories contained in our collections\, and challenged the public to probe the choices we make about those stories. Choices about which artists you see in our galleries\, choices about what relevant facts we share about the works\, and choices about what - out of an infinite number of options - we don’t say about them.\n \nPieces in this exhibition were made at a time when the world came to be shaped by the ideologies of colonial expansion and Western domination. And yet\, that history and the stories of those marginalized do not readily appear in the still lives and portraits on display here. By grappling with what is visible and what remains hidden\, we are forced to examine whose stories and histories are prioritized and why.  \n \nIn this online exhibition\, you can explore our efforts to deeply question the Museum’s collection and our own past complicity in favoring colonial voices. In the Museum gallery\, which will open in early 2021\, you’ll be able to experience the changes we’re making to the physical space to highlight a more honest version of European and American history. \n \nBy challenging our own practice\, and continuing to add to what we know and what we write about the works we display\, UMMA tells a more complex and more complete story of this nation - one that unsettles\, and fails to settle for\, simple narratives. \n \n“Invisible things are not necessarily ‘not there’.... Certain absences are so stressed\, so ornate\, so planned\, they call attention to themselves\; arrest us with intentionality and purpose\, like neighborhoods that are defined by the population held away from them.” \n \n— Toni Morrison\n\nLead support for Unsettling Histories: Legacies of Slavery and Colonialism is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost\, the U-M Arts Initiative\, and the Susan and Richard Gutow Endowed Fund.\n

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Kelly Church & Cherish Parrish: In Our Words\, An Intergenerational Dialogue
DESCRIPTION:Exhibition Dates: September 13 – December 7\, 2024Opening Reception: September 19\, 2024\n\nKelly Church &amp\; Cherish Parrish: In Our Words\, An Intergenerational Dialogue is a major exhibition that centers the subjectivities of two contemporary Indigenous artists whose practices have sustained and bolstered the relevance of the age-old Anishinaabe practice of black ash basket-making in the 21st century. The exhibition highlights the significance of community-based conversations between mother and daughter\, and their ongoing conversations with elders (ancestors)\, young folx\, and future generations as vital aspects of their methodology. These conversations often take place during basket gatherings - where community members come together and share stories and teachings that can encompass Anishinaabe creation stories\, as well as those of survivance and resilience\, to inform the materiality and liveness of their work. The curatorial and interpretive framework of this exhibition contends that the deeply situated and temporal works by Church (Stamps\, BFA 1998) and Parrish (LSA\, BA 2020) are repositories for Anishinaabe ways of knowing\, thinking\, and making that contribute to the complexity of American art and its histories. The expansive and bold practices of Church and Parrish affirm the sovereignty of Anishinaabe lifeways and the importance of including Indigenous narratives that have systematically been left out. Thus\, the thematic survey of their work will explore the under-examined themes that inform their work such as Native women’s labor as carriers of culture and knowledge-keepers\, the legacy of boarding schools and ancestors who walked on\, the treaties in Michigan and the long-overlooked legacy of Anishinaabe intellectual life and their relevance today. Just like the practice of weaving and interlacing distinct strips of black ash to create one whole\, Church and Parrish will address the diverse and interconnected themes with approximately 30-35 works\, including 15-17 new works. Together\, the exhibition offers an incisive critique of the colonial\, racist paradigm of systemic erasure and assimilation that continues to this day\, with the ongoing crises of missing and murdered Indigenous women\, culture wars\, and climate change that threaten Indigenous ways of living\, sustenance\, and making. \nCurated by Srimoyee Mitra with Curatorial Assistant Zoi Crampton.\nStamps Gallery is grateful to Michigan Humanities and U-M Arts Initiative for generously supporting the exhibition and programs.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Michelle Hinojosa: Logcabins
DESCRIPTION:Stamps Gallery commissioned Michelle Hinojosa (MFA\, 2023) to reimagine the pillars on Division Street that flank the Gallery. Hinojosa has created log cabin quilts to adorn the columns in front of Stamps Gallery. The log cabin quilts traditionally represent the warm hearth at the center of a home. This installation reflects on the interplay between home\, placemaking\, labor\, and intergenerational memories of migration. Rather than quilting cotton designed to softly embrace the body\, these quilts are sewn from outdoor grade\, UV-resistant polyester. The quilt is an ode to Hinojosa’s grandmother who illegally crossed the US/Mexico border holding her babies and her quilts. As she and her family drove across the United States to work in the fields of the Salinas Valley\, the quilts offered a safe space for her and her family. Hinojosa celebrates their resilience to her grandmother and elders while also drawing attention to precarity and violence experienced by refugees and migrants crossing the US-Mexico border in our present today.\nArtist’s bio:\nMichelle Inez Hinojosa is an artist\, educator\, and researcher whose work is informed by Indigenous and Latine/x/a/o studies. Born and raised in Texas\, she earned her Bachelor of Fine Arts degree in both drawing and painting and art education with a minor in art history at the University of North Texas. She holds a Master of Fine Arts from the University of Michigan. She works with quilting\, bead weaving\, embroidery\, jewelry\, transparent film installations\, painting\, ceramics\, and sculpture to honor and explore the history of migration in her family and humanize the current discourse around migration still occurring at the southern border. Alongside her artwork she maintains a writing practice to re-story\, re-make\, and re-claim the often subordinated narratives of Latinx\, Chicanx\, Mexican\, and Texican peoples. \n\nRecently\, Hinojosa was named an inaugural Creative Careers Artist in Residence at the University of Michigan\, she has also attended residencies at Mildred's Lane (Pennsylvania)\, Anderson Ranch Art Center (Aspen\, CO) and The Cedars Union (Dallas\, TX).

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Becoming elands’ people: Neoglacial subsistence and spiritual transformations in southern Africa's Maloti-Drakensberg Mountains
DESCRIPTION:Recent improvements in dating rock art offer unprecedented opportunities to integrate it with the excavated record. Deeply contextualized insights into how ancient peoples perceived their worlds can result. In southern Africa’s most richly painted area – the Maloti-Drakensberg Mountains – spectacular images were being made just as the region experienced dynamic changes owing in part to climate. Responses of local foragers are evident across a range of cultural spheres\, including dramatic subsistence transformations. Here I explore how such changes articulated with ontological shifts in relation to the food quest. As desirable game declined and hunting windows narrowed\, I suggest that Neoglacial (∼3.5–2 kcal BP) foragers sought to manage scheduling and social conflicts through enhanced spiritual negotiation with non-human entities in the landscape. Facilitated by the supernaturally charged nature of their elevated cosmos\, this intensified spiritual labor found material expression\, I argue\, in an elaborate new style of painting. Where possible\, adopting emic perspectives rooted in what I call \"ecological ontology” is fundamental for decoding past hunter-gatherer lifeways.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Museum Studies Program\, Museums at Noon
DESCRIPTION:Presentation by Albert Cavallaro\, PhD Candidate\, History\; Museum Studies Program\n\nThis talk reflects on the State Museum of the History of Uzbekistan’s response to a planned presidential visit by Shavkat Mirziyoyev\, the current president of Uzbekistan. Had it not been cancelled just two days before it was scheduled to occur on June 25th\, 2024\, it would have been the first visit to the museum by Mirziyoyev since he assumed the presidency in 2016. Rushed preparations initiated a host of changes inside the museum pertaining to its exhibitions. Most critically\, one month prior to the anticipated visit\, the museum closed to the public and all of its displays from the Stone Age to the 16th century were changed. \n\nI will touch on issues ranging from leaking ceilings to breaking objects\, as well as to the broader discussions and arguments that occurred in the museum over what a “modern” museum is supposed to be and what elements of the old exhibitions still fit the demands of current national narratives. In doing so\, I will show the museum’s close relationship to the state\, not only as the provider of financial funds\, but also\, in many ways\, as the museum’s main anticipated audience. With my dissertation focusing on the history of this museum from 1876 until the collapse of the Russian empire in 1917\, in this talk I will present a brief historical overview that will allow me to chart the museum’s navigation from the Tsarist period to the Soviet period\, and to the current moment.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:BLM in the Boardroom: How did Large Corporations Respond to Racial Justice Protests?
DESCRIPTION:Did U.S. corporations embrace racial justice in reaction to the murder of George Floyd and mass Black Lives Matter (BLM) protests? Drawing on both network and organizational theories we conceptualize this as a problem of organizational decision making. We first document the range of responses by US Fortune 500 companies and the deploy latent class analysis (LCA) to categorize responses. Sixty percent of the Fortune 500 stayed silent and 21% made primarily symbolic responses. Right wing fears of a movement toward “woke” capitalism seem premature. On the other hand\, 19% of the Fortune 500 made substantial commitments of time and money to promote racial justice. We model this variation as a function of the attributes of internal decision makers and external audiences. Controlling for prior pro-social behavior and firm size\, we find that the strongest covariates to making a muscular response to racial justice claims came from firms whose DEI staff were central to the national network of DEI professionals and were led by politically liberal CEOs. Being a consumer brand has a weaker but statistically significant relationship with muscular responses. Having more Black executives in headquarters is associated with symbolic\, but not muscular or silent\, responses to BLM protest. Firms led by conservative CEOs were more likely to stay silent. Who has a seat at the table when corporations respond to cultural pressures matters a great deal. Internal and external audiences seem less important in this instance.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:AIM Seminar: Collective dynamics of swarmalators with time-delayed interaction
DESCRIPTION:Abstract:  Swarmalators are active particles that have internal phases and also swarm through space.  Phase synchronization is affected by spatial arrangement\, and spatial motion is affected by phase synchronization.  Swarmalators have recently been realized in robotics labs\, and may also play a role in describing collective behavior of biological organisms.  In this work I will describe the effects of time delay in interactions on collective dynamics of a population of swarmalators.   Delay resulted in the appearance of new collective states.  One such state is a pseudo-crystaline structure - in which swarmalators form a quasi-static cluster\, and another is a boiling state in which swarmalators near the boundary of the cluster perform convective motions.  In both cases\, the route to these states takes place through an oscillatory transient in which the whole cluster “breathes”.  Remarkably\, just a pair of nonlinear equations (in a system of N swarmalators) describes the behavior of the cluster during this transient.  This system also exhibits an intriguing aging phenomenon.  I will describe the specific mechanism by which the system ages - which involves gradual increase in the hexatic order parameter\, accompanied by a series of annihilations of coordination number defect pairs.  \n\nContact:  Evgeniy Khain (Oakland University)

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Arctic Curves of T-system with Slanted Initial Data (combinatorics seminar)
DESCRIPTION:We study the T-system of type 𝐴∞\, also known as the octahedron recurrence/equation\, viewed as a 2 + 1-dimensional discrete evolution equation. Generalizing earlier work on arctic curves for the Aztec Diamond obtained from solutions of the octahedron recurrence with “flat\" initial data\, we consider initial data along parallel “slanted\" planes perpendicular to an arbitrary admissible direction (𝑟\, 𝑠\, 𝑡) in Z^3 . The corresponding solutions of the T-system are interpreted as partition functions of dimer models on some suitable “pinecone\" graphs introduced by Bousquet-Melou\, Propp\, and West in 2009. The T-system formulation and some exact solutions in uniform and periodic cases allow us to explore the scaling limit of the corresponding dimer models and to derive exact arctic curves separating the various phases of the system. This approach bypasses the standard general theory of dimers using the Kasteleyn matrix and uses instead the theory of Analytic Combinatorics in Several Variables.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:HET Seminar | Cosmic Colliders: High Energy Physics with First Order Phase Transitions
DESCRIPTION:Vacuum decay through runaway first order phase transitions (FOPTs) presents a unique opportunity for particle physics and cosmology: collisions of vacuum bubbles can act as cosmic scale high energy colliders close to the Planck scale\, providing access to high energy physics far beyond any temperature or energy scale ever reached in the history of our Universe. This talk will cover recent developments and challenges in the physics for understanding such frameworks\, as well as applications to solve some of the fundamental problems in particle physics: the production of dark matter and the baryon asymmetry of the Universe.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Student Algebraic Geometry: Faltings’ Theorem
DESCRIPTION:One of the most famous results of 20th century mathematics is Wiles' proof of Fermat's Last Theorem\, which states that the only rational solutions to xⁿ+yⁿ=zⁿ for n>2 satisfy xyz=0. Thus there are at most 3 points on such a curve in ℙⁿ_ℚ. In 1922\, Mordell conjectured that a similar result holds in general: if we take a complete smooth curve C of genus g>2 over a finite extension K of ℚ\, then the set C(K) of K−rational points is finite.\n\nWe will cover Gerd Faltings' proof of Mordell's conjecture\, now known as Faltings' Theorem. In broad strokes\, the K−rational points on the curve C correspond to abelian varieties over K of specified dimension and bad reduction. We discuss how to show only finitely many isomorphism classes of these abelian varieties exist\; this generalizes a known result for global fields of prime characteristic to characteristic zero.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Smith Lecture\, Jill VanTongeren\, Tufts University
DESCRIPTION:Layered mafic intrusions\, such as the Dufek Intrusion of Antarctica\, represent fossilized mafic magma chambers formed in the shallow crust during large igneous province and/or continental breakup events.  The Dufek Intrusion of Antarctica is one of the largest layered intrusions\, intruded approximately 182 Myr ago during the breakup of Gondwana. It is rivaled in thickness only by the 2.05 Ma Bushveld Complex of South Africa and shows a similar progression in mineral compositions from primitive at the base to more evolved compositions at the uppermost contact with an overlying granophyre layer.  This progression in mineral composition suggests that the Dufek magma chamber crystallized from the bottom to the top.  In this talk\, I will present new high-precision U-Pb zircon ages throughout the 8+ km thick Dufek Intrusion magma chamber stratigraphy.  The results are surprising - zircons from the bottom of the intrusion record systematically younger ages than those from the top.  I will argue that zircons from layered mafic intrusions do not provide a record of high temperature crystallization\, but rather the ages reflect the solidification of interstitial melt in the magma chamber from the top down.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Linguistics Colloquium
DESCRIPTION:Shota Momma (Negishi) is an assistant professor in linguistics at the University of Massachusetts\, Amherst. He specializes in psycholinguistics\, and his current NSF-funded research focuses on revealing how speakers assemble sentence structures in production in two different languages\, English and Japanese. Before joining UMass\, he was at the Department of Psychology at the University of California\, San Diego\, working with Victor Ferreira and Tamar Gollan. Before that\, he did his Ph. D with Colin Phillips in the Department of Linguistics at the University of Maryland\, College Park.\n\nTitle: Building sentence structures in speaking\nAbstract: We have theories of grammatical knowledge and theories of how people produce sentences. These two theories\, however\, are not well integrated. In this talk\, I will attempt to present an integrated theory of structure building in sentence production and grammatical knowledge. I will discuss our group’s recent research on how speakers formulate various types of sentence structure that played central roles in the development of grammatical theories\, such as relative clauses (e.g.\, the cat that the girl thinks the dog chased)\, wh-questions (e.g.\, what did the girl think the dog chased?)\, raising (e.g.\, the girl seems to like the dog)\, and control (e.g.\, the girl wants to hug the dog). Based on the results from these studies\, I will argue that there is a surprising parallelism between the notion of locality in grammatical theories and planning units in theories of sentence production. I will attempt to outline a theoretical framework that might allow us to integrate various findings from syntax\, sentence production\, and possibly\, sentence comprehension.\n\nThis event will be hybrid held in East Hall 4448 & Zoom.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:NERS Colloquium: Glenn Knoll Lecture
DESCRIPTION:INNOVATIONS IN RADIATION DETECTORS AND SYSTEMS FOR POSITRON EMISSION TOMOGRAPHY\n\nSimon R. Cherry\, Ph.D.\nDepartment of Biomedical Engineering\nDepartment of Radiology\nUniversity of California\, Davis\, USA\n\nPositron emission tomography (PET) imaging is an important clinical tool for staging and monitoring treatment response in cancer patients and has a broad range of other diagnostic and research applications.  Roughly 10 million diagnostic PET scans are performed worldwide\, annually and the number is growing quite rapidly.\n\nAdvances in radiation detector technology have led to new generations of PET systems that demonstrate a quantum leap in imaging performance\, and in doing so open new opportunities for the application of PET in biomedical research and in the clinic.  State-of-the-art total body and brain PET scanners will be reviewed.\n\nCurrent innovations in radiation detector research offer the prospect of future opportunities to further improve the performance of PET scanners\, with a specific focus on time-of-flight performance.  Examples include fast timing from dense room-temperature semiconductors and the use of promptCherenkov luminescence as a fast-timing trigger.  The first steps towards detectors capable of real-time and reconstruction-free imaging of positron-labeled radiopharmaceuticals will be presented. Such systems would approach the theoretical performance limits for imaging radiotracers and permit novel imaging geometries\, providing an exquisitely sensitive and quantitative imaging tool for biomedical research in human subjects.\n\n\n\nBIO\n\nSimon R. Cherry\, Ph.D. received his B.Sc.(Hons) in Physics with Astronomy from University College London in 1986 and a Ph.D. in Medical Physics from the Institute of Cancer Research\, University of London in 1989. In 1993\, he became a faculty member in the Department of Molecular and Medical Pharmacology at UCLA.  Simon joined UC Davis in 2001\, and is currently Distinguished Research Professor in the Departments of Biomedical Engineering and Radiology.\n\nSimon’s research interests center around biomedical imaging. His major accomplishments have been in developing systems for positron emission tomography\, for example as co-leader of the EXPLORER consortium which developed the world’s first total-body PET scanner.  He also has contributed to detector technology innovations for PET\, conducted early biomedical studies using Cerenkovluminescence\, and developed the first proof-of-concept hybrid PET/MRI (magnetic resonance imaging) systems.  \n\nSimon is an elected fellow of six professional societies and a Member of the National Academy of Engineering and National Academy of Inventors. He has received several international awards including the Society of nuclear Medicine and Molecular Imaging Cassen Prize in 2022.  He served as Editor-in-Chief of the journal Physics in Medicine and Biology from 2011-2020. Simon is the author of more than 300 peer-reviewed journal articles\, review articles and book chapters in the field of biomedical imaging. He is also lead author of the widely-used textbook “Physics in Nuclear Medicine”.

SUMMARY:Performance:Steve Poltz
DESCRIPTION:Steve Poltz is not normal. He was born in Halifax\, Nova Scotia\, but has lived most of his life in southern California\, and those geographic poles are quite likely responsible for his unhinged genius. With a cult following that includes fellow musicians\, regular folks and festival goers who stumble onto his performances\, there’s no common denominator to Steve’s fans. Steve toured and recorded with San Diego cult favorites The Rugburns (they still play annual sold-out reunion shows). But it was through his creative partnership with Jewel that he vaulted into the national spotlight\; co-writing her multiplatinum Billboard Hot 100-busting smash\, “You Were Meant For Me\,” and continues to work with her to this day.\n\nOver the years\, Steve has built a fascinating solo catalog. No Depression crowned him\, \"A sardonic provocateur with a lighthearted acoustic-driven wit\, suggesting at times a sunnier\, less psychedelic Todd Snider\, or maybe a less wan\, washed Jackson Brown.” Among other collaborations\, GRAMMY-winning bluegrass phenom Billy Strings tapped him to co-write “Leaders” on 2021’s Renewal and he’s co-written with Molly Tuttle\, Sierra Hull\, Nicki Bluhm\, Oliver Wood and even Mojo Nixon.\n\nSteve’s newest album is Stardust & Satellites\, produced by Oliver Wood and Jano Rix of The Wood Brothers.
