SUMMARY:Exhibition:A Prison\, a Prisoner\, and a Prison Guard
DESCRIPTION:Join us for a multimedia exploration of the impact of prisons on countries and communities across the Middle East and North Africa (MENA) region through the lens of “prison art.” The exhibit delves into the dynamic interplay between incarceration and creative expression to make sense of carceral systems.\n\nBy presenting prison art from various countries in the MENA region\, including Algeria\, Egypt\, Iran\, Iraq\, Lebanon\, Palestine\, Sudan\, Syria\, and Yemen\, this exhibit unfolds as a “journey” into the prison system and demonstrates the ways in which art can be a tool of expression and reconciliation for survivors\, detainees’ families\, and society at large. It promotes drawing parallels between the prison experience in the region and worldwide\, highlights the intentionality of carceral systems\, and expands the conversation to include prison-impacted communities. Viewers are invited to navigate the cross-generational\, human experiences of imprisonment often obscured behind prison walls and within individuals.\n\nCurated by Sumaya Tabbah and Susan Aboeid of The Ḥafathah Collective\, this traveling exhibit was organized by U-M Students Organize for Syria (SOS) in partnership with U-M Library and with support from the U-M Arts Initiative.\n\nPlan to attend the related discussion\, \"Art\, Justice\, and Carcerality: The Role of Creative Expression in the Pursuit of Justice\,\" on February 6.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Being Mixed Race in a Mono-racially Organized World
DESCRIPTION:The exhibit \"Being Mixed Race in a Mono-racially Organized World: Interracial Identity in the U.S. and Around the World — What Research and Mixed Race People Tell Us\" is an exploration into the library's collections about the diversity of mixed race heritage. Through research\, narratives\, demographic data\, and a variety of visual and published materials\, explore multifaceted aspects of mixed race heritage with insights from many perspectives.\n\nThe 2020 U.S. Census illuminated a 276 percent increase in individuals who identify as \"two or more races\" since 2010. In recognition of the growing numbers of mixed race-identifying people at the University of Michigan\, throughout the country\, and across the globe\, we're excited to unveil this new exhibit — a unique exploration of changing demographics and intersectional identities.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:WCEE Exhibition. Threads of Tradition: The Art of Ukrainian Vyshyvanka
DESCRIPTION:The act of embroidering and weaving designs onto cloth is deeply rooted in Ukrainian traditions. Embellished clothing (sorochky)\, ritual cloths (rushnyky)\, and household textiles accompany a person from birth until death\, punctuating important life events in between. A variety of embroidery patterns are used throughout Ukraine\; some stitches are universally known\, while others are region-specific. Ukrainian embroidered clothing is now officially celebrated with an annual Vyshyvanka Day observed throughout the world in May.\n\nTo see photos and read more about exhibited items\, visit https://myumi.ch/AZedA\n   \n   The embroideries and textiles exhibited are from the private collections of Arnie Klein\, Solomia Soroka\, Katerina Sirinyok-Dolgaryova\, and from the Ukrainian American Archives & Museum located in Hamtramck\, Michigan.\n   \n   The exhibit opens on September 5\, 2024\, in 1010 Weiser Hall\, 500 Church Street\, Ann Arbor. Contact weisercenter@umich.edu to schedule a viewing.\n\n*The exhibition is cosponsored by the Ukrainian American Archives & Museum*.\n\nIf there is anything we can do to make this event accessible to you\, please contact us.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Andy Ross Exhibition
DESCRIPTION:The pieces here are from a large series of works made over the last several years. In them\, Ross explores humor and personal meaning through absurd juxtapositions of pairs of wildly varied images. Each single image is stripped of its original context (be it\, for example\, a history book\, an instruction manual\, or a magazine advertisement)\, placed on a white background like some kind of specimen\, and presented afresh with a new “companion image.” These companion images confront\, contrast and converse with each other\, and thereby build new relationships\, narratives\, jokes\, and contexts.\n\nAndy Ross grew up in Macomb County\, and has been making art in various mediums since the 1970s. He received a BFA degree from College for Creative Studies\, and an MFA degree from University of Michigan. He has taught photography\, art\, and web design at colleges in California and Michigan. His photographs and collages have been exhibited in schools\, galleries\, and museums across the United States.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Chimera
DESCRIPTION:*Chimera* is an immersive exhibition centered on a newly commissioned film\, also titled *Chimera*\, which fuses elements from Newsome's prior works *Hands Performance* and *Build or Destroy* with a new interquel film that bridges their narratives. This connecting piece explores the origins and journey of the bejeweled figure in flames from *Build or Destroy*\, revealing where they come from and the purpose that led them to Earth. This exhibition reflects a bold shift in Newsome's practice toward sci-fi filmmaking\, layering the architecture of film\, movement\, and world-building to probe themes of identity\, resistance\, and creation.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Elizabeth Boyd-Hartmann Dizik Exhibition
DESCRIPTION:This body of work represents a playful exploration of form\, color\, and scale through the lens of cellular shapes. Inspired by the complex patterns of biological life\, the pieces are a celebration of growth\, transformation\, and the joy of experimentation. The use of non-precious materials\, such as wood balls and paint\, allowed for a liberating approach to composition and color\, while the spherical forms and circular panels evoke the look of petri dishes—symbolizing both scientific curiosity and organic development.\nBorn in Detroit\, Elizabeth is a multidisciplinary artist and mother based in the metro Detroit area\, where she works from a studio in her home. With a background in bench jewelry\, her earlier work focused on studio jewelry and was represented by Galerie Noel Guyomarc’h in Montreal.\nElizabeth’s work has been exhibited both locally and internationally. She holds a BA in Jewelry Design\, with First Class Honours\, from Central Saint Martins in London\, a BFA from the University of Michigan\, and an MFA from Cranbrook Academy of Art\, where she specialized in Metalsmithing and Architecture. Her diverse practice spans jewelry\, sculpture\, and installation\, blending materials and techniques to explore themes of production\, growth\, transformation\, and organic form.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:On the World With the World
DESCRIPTION:*On The World With The World* is an exhibition of 40 artworks by over 24 artists from the Progressive Art Studio Collective (PASC) program. PASC is the first progressive art studio and exhibition program in Detroit and Wayne County dedicated to supporting artists with developmental disabilities and mental health differences to advance artistic practices and build individual careers in the art and design fields.\n\nThis exhibition introduces the PASC program\, and the wide range of styles and ways of working that drive this community of artists\, to the Ann Arbor community. The exhibition is hung salon style\, referencing the communal character of the Osterman Common Room as a social gathering space. It intends to bring engaged people together for conversation on art\, disabilities\, and questions of access in the art world.\n\nPASC embraces the philosophy that creating an artwork is an expressive and communal act whereby an individual communicates their unique perspective on the world with the world.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Red Summer: Racial Violence in the American Landscape\, 1917-1923
DESCRIPTION:The Red Summer portfolio represents the stories of various locations in the American landscape where racial violence (often characterized as “Race Wars” at the time) erupted between 1917 and 1923. These years of conflict reveal several aspects of racial anxiety that inform our contemporary experience\, including\, though not limited to\; racism\, fear of violent black revolt\, lynching\, poverty\, mass incarceration\, and competition for employment. The term “Red Summer” was first used by James Weldon Johnson to describe the violent attacks against black communities during 1919.  \n\nThough the events of the early twentieth century seem to be remote and fading apparitions of an American past\; my work is concerned with the power and influence of our shared historical narrative upon the present. The upheaval of Red Summer occurred approximately fifty years after the American Civil War\, fifty years before the height of the Civil Rights Era\, and three centuries after the first enslaved Africans arrived in English colonies that would become the United States. \n\nThe project combines photographs of the contemporary landscape made at or near the site of racial conflict with fragmented selections of contemporaneous newspaper reporting (1917-1923). In many cases\, the newsprint images include the surrounding stories or advertisements. The combination of the landscape photograph and the reproduction of newspaper fragments (which invade the contemporary with a narrative from the past)\, is a rupture and a conversation on the timeline between past and present.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Redefining the Crown
DESCRIPTION:In Winter 2025\, the Lane Hall exhibit space will feature a portraiture series titled Redefining the Crown showcasing the powerful stories of six Black breast cancer survivors.\n\nBased on a photo essay by U-M Faculty Versha Pleasant (MD/MPH) and Ava Purkiss (PhD) in Medicine at Michigan\, this exhibition examines the cultural and personal significance of hair within Black communities\, particularly through the lens of breast cancer treatment and recovery. The term \"crown\" is deeply symbolic in Black culture\, signifying beauty\, strength\, and identity. The featured photo essay by photographer Tafari Stevenson-Howard captures the intimate journeys of Ann Chatman\, Tanisha Kennedy\, Felecia McDaniel\, Shantell Elaine McCoy\, Tamara Lynn Myles\, and Veleria Banks.\n\nThrough their narratives and portraits\, the exhibit examines how these women have navigated the profound impact of hair loss caused by chemotherapy\, inviting the audience to witness their stories with radical empathy. It explores the cultural pride and personal identity intricately tied to their hair\, and how these elements are redefined amidst their battles with breast cancer.\n\nThe exhibit will be on view from January 21\, 2025 to August 8\, 2025. This exhibition is presented with support from IRWG\, the Department of Women's and Gender Studies\, and Michigan Medicine. \n\nLocated on the first floor of Lane Hall (204 S. State Street)\, the Exhibit Space is free and open to the public\, M-F\, 9am-4pm.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:The Bibliophile and the Library: Private-Press Books from the Collection of Bill Heidrich
DESCRIPTION:View beautifully illustrated books that stand as remarkable testaments to the work of twentieth-century small private presses\, which\, in contrast to the trend of mass commercialization\, produced limited editions that celebrated the uniqueness of manual craftsmanship. Features such as exquisite typeface design\, letterpress printing\, handmade paper\, traditional illustration techniques like woodcut and engraving\, and the inclusion of original art by renowned artists highlight the presses' dedication to artistry and detail.\n\nThe display opens with an edition of \"The Works of Geoffrey Chaucer\,\" published in 1896 by William Morris at his Kelmscott Press\, a pivotal press that greatly influenced the development of the private press movement as a means of preserving and revitalizing the fine printing and art traditions of the past. Additionally\, the exhibit includes some examples of artist’s proofs\, offering a glimpse into the intricate creative process behind these exceptional works.\n\nThese books are on loan from the collection of Bill Heidrich\, a long-time supporter of the University of Michigan Library.

SUMMARY:Other:Leaves Under the Lens
DESCRIPTION:The leaf surface is a dynamic landscape where tiny\, specialized structures help plants interact with the world around them. Let’s bring this world into view! Join us for an exhibit that highlights the complex and often beautiful anatomy of leaves from the Matthaei collection. Plants throughout the conservatory will be paired with microscope photographs and micro-CT scans that illustrate the otherwise invisible structures that protect leaves from chewing insects\, absorb (or repel!) water\, and even recruit “bodyguards”. You won’t look at leaves the same way again! \n\nThis project is a collaboration between MBGNA and the Weber and Vasconcelos labs in the Department of Ecology and Evolutionary Biology\, led by PhD student Rosemary Glos.

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: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:Lecture / Discussion:Great Lakes Seminar Series: Jason Keeler
DESCRIPTION:About the presentation: The evolution of the marine atmospheric boundary layer as it advects inland during the warm season plays a critical role in the initiation–or suppression–of convection in the Great Lakes coastal environment. Gaining a deeper understanding of these transitions and their effects on convection is of significant importance\, particularly given the large population in many coastal areas. To address this\, the National Science Foundation-funded Maritime to Inland Transitions Towards ENvironments for Convection Initiation (MITTEN-CI) campaign was conducted in July 2024\, with the goal of developing an extensive dataset that could effectively characterize these transitions. Over-lake thermodynamic and kinematic profiles were observed by Uncrewed Aircraft Systems (UAS)\, while sampling of boundary layer spatial and temporal variability over land was observed by a 120 km long shore-perpendicular transect including six flux towers\, two mobile mesonets\, multiple radiosonde launch sites\, a Doppler LiDAR\, and two mobile Ka-band Doppler radars. This dataset enables hypothesis testing that will result in new knowledge of processes that support the development of instability maxima on the cool side of lake-breeze fronts (LBFs)\, the potential for diffuse LBFs to exist embedded within synoptic-scale onshore flow and influence CI\, the prevalence of misovortices at intersections of horizontal convective rolls and the LBF\, RKW theory’s relation to the vertical structure of the LBF\, and the influence of entrainment on the thermodynamics and structure of the boundary layer and the LBF. This talk will provide an overview of the MITTEN-CI campaign\, highlighting the unique data collected\, with additional insights provided through analysis of relevant idealized simulations.\n\nAbout the speaker: Jason Keeler is an Associate Professor of Meteorology and has been a faculty member of Central Michigan University’s Institute for Great Lakes Research since 2018. He joined the faculty at CMU following postdoctoral studies at the University of Nebraska-Lincoln\, and graduate studies at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign. His research blends aspects of boundary layer and mesoscale dynamics\, with a focus on destabilization and evolution of convection\, often applied to coastal areas. Jason and his collaborators explored these processes in summer 2024 through the NSF-funded MITTEN-CI field campaign (Maritime to Inland Transitions Towards ENvironments for Convection Initiation). In his spare time\, Jason is an avid gardener\, and enjoys traveling with his husband.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Colorism Multimedia Exhibit
DESCRIPTION:Colorism comprises works of video\, still photography\, and sculpture questioning our psychosocial and biological ideas about skin color and treatment of people\, based on skin tones\, including within racial groups. This exhibit asks: What do we know about the root causes of prejudice toward skin color? What can we do to improve interpersonal and structural colorism? To answer these questions\, Prof. Rogério Pinto (Social Work) uses personal and historical materials and interview data to optimize audience interaction\, including critical dialogues around colorism while audiences are viewing the installation or immediately after viewing it.

Discover how curiosity-driven initiatives like the expressive arts program \"Telling It\" address the learning and mental health needs of youth\, and learn about the insights garnered from Black children's interactions in healthcare settings. This session promises to expand your understanding of the transformative roles curiosity and learning play in the arts and health sciences.\n\nBring your lunch\, your questions\, and your curiosity! (Light snacks will be provided.)\n\nPresentations:\n\nDeborah Gordon-Gurfinkel - Telling It: Addressing the learning and mental health needs of youth in Washtenaw County through creative expression and evidence-based youth engagement practices\n\nThe presentation will focus on the development of Telling It framed by the teaching practices of its founder\, Deb Gordon-Gurfinkel. Deb taught 6-12th grade students in London\, England before emigrating to the USA in 1986. Telling It is an expressive arts program founded in 2002 that operates in collaboration with schools\, shelter organizations\, community centers\, and carceral systems. The program is linked with the U-M Residential College undergraduate course\, Community Empowerment through the Arts. Telling It staff support the mental health of young individuals by providing safe\, creative\, uncensored and judgement-free spaces. Through its multimodal approach\, Telling It strives to cultivate resilience\, empower and uplift personal strengths\, and provide an expressive arts-based outlet for processing emotional struggles driven by the questions\, needs and interests of the youth and our community partners\n\nFrancesca A. Williamson - Learning with Black Children and Childhoods in Health Care\n\nThis presentation centers on what we can learn about learning and curiosity from Black children's interactions in healthcare settings. Drawing upon ongoing research with children in cancer and surgical care settings\, I bring together ideas from multiple disciplines and empirical findings to illuminate Black children's livingness\, curiosities\, and ways of knowing. I will discuss how learning from children's healthcare interactions can also inspire more humanizing\, equitable care.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Dr. Derek Griffith - Black Men's Health 2/18
DESCRIPTION:\"Black Men’s Health 40 Years after the 'Heckler Report': Where do we go from here?\"\n\nDr. Derek M. Griffith is the Risa Lavizzo-Mourey Population Health and Health Equity University Professor at the University of Pennsylvania. At Penn\, he also is a Fellow and Senior Advisor on Health Equity and Anti-Racism for The Leonard Davis Institute of Health Economics. Outside of Penn he serves as the Chair of Global Action on Men’s Health – a global men’s health advocacy organization – and Editor-in-Chief of the International Journal of Men’s Social and Community Health. Trained in psychology and public health\, Dr. Griffith’s research focuses on achieving racial\, ethnic\, and gender equity in health. He specializes in community-based interventions to promote Black men's health and well-being\, and anti-racism interventions to mitigate and undo the effects of structural racism on health.\n\nThe EPIC Pathways Leadership Series is a speaker series hosted by the University of Michigan School of Nursing that welcomes leaders in the fields of nursing and healthcare to share their expertise and engage members of the UM community in critical thinking\, learning\, and dialogue about topics in health equity. Our goal is to expose UM faculty\, staff\, students\, and alumni to some of the most pressing and relevant topics in health equity and nursing. Attendees will be challenged to learn\, unlearn\, and expand upon their own views while also networking with leaders who have a demonstrated commitment to advancing equity in healthcare.\n\nWe'll begin with Dr. Griffith's presentation and end with Q&A.\n\nPlease register on Sessions:\nhttps://sessions.studentlife.umich.edu/track/event/session/82045

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:EEB Tuesday Seminar Series - Just Scratching the Surface: Exploring The Significance of Deep Earth Fungi
DESCRIPTION:This event is part of our ongoing Tuesday Lunch Seminar Series.\n\nFungi are ubiquitous on the planet and continuously regulate ecosystem function and productivity. Accordingly\, extensive research connects most of fungal diversification and adaptation to sustained reliance on phototrophs in surface systems. The Deep Earth Biosphere\, however\, is now estimated to contain a majority of the planet’s microbial cells. Despite fungi presumably inhabiting the Deep Earth for hundreds of millions of years\, little is known about subsurface fungi\, and micro-eukaryotes more broadly. As an exclusively microbial ecosystem void of ongoing photosynthetic input\, investigation of the Deep Subsurface Biosphere enables examination of the presumed innate qualities of kingdom Fungi\, and eukaryotes more broadly.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:LRCCS Noon Lecture Series. Did Coca-Cola Outsmart China? The Scientific Secrets behind Coke’s Success in Shaping China’s Obesity Policies (Virtual)
DESCRIPTION:*Virtual Talk: We regret that Susan Greenhalgh is now not able to come in person\, and will be giving her presentation through Zoom only. Please register below to attend.* \n\nModern science and technology are central to Chinese politics and CCP power\, but the intimate connections between science and party politics in China remain poorly understood. This talk presents a case of the corporate corruption of science by Big Food in the US\, and the successful export of that corrupted science to China followed by its incorporation into Chinese health policy. In the mid-1990s the exploding epidemic of obesity posed an existential threat to Big Soda. Led by Coca-Cola\, the industry mobilized scientists to quietly create a “soda-defense science” of obesity\, one geared not to solving a public health problem but to protecting profits on unhealthy sugar-rich drinks. Arguing that science-making in China reflects the nation’s unusual history and socio-political institutions\, this talk highlights five distinctive features of Chinese science-making\, then uses them to unravel the secrets to Coke’s success in shaping China’s obesity policies. Elaborated in Soda Science: Making the World Safe for Coca-Cola\, this research suggests that the corporate corruption of Chinese science and policy is more pervasive than we think\, and that the party’s celebrated “scientific policy making” may not yield better policy.\n   \n   An anthropologist and specialist in the social study of science\, Dr. Greenhalgh’s interests lie in the entanglements of state\, corporation\, science\, and society\, and their consequences for human health and social justice writ large. She is author of several books on the one-child policy\, including the award-winning *Just One China: Science and Policy in Deng’s China*. Her recent works include *Fat-Talk Nation: The Human Costs of America’s War on Fat and Can Science and Technology Save China?* (as co-editor)\, among other titles. Recognized by several lifetime career achievement awards\, Greenhalgh is currently the John King and Wilma Cannon Fairbank Professor of Chinese Society emerita in the Fairbank Center for Chinese Studies at Harvard University.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:More than Gray: Reimagining Early America in Full Color
DESCRIPTION:The American past was lived in full color\, but this vibrant history can be easily missed in surviving evidence. You can’t deny that there’s something about a black-and-white photograph that feels… stuffy. With portraits showing people with their shirts buttoned right to the neck and everything in shades of gray and brown\, our imaginations can incline to thinking of the past as a bit staid\, if not downright dull. But look a little closer\, and you’ll see signs that the fashion choices available to those who came before us were more colorful than you might first think. From the fabrics they wore\, to the games they played\, or the books they read\, their world was alive with bright hues. This exhibit invites you to reimagine history with a fuller color palette and picture the vibrancy and joy that just might be hidden behind the unsmiling photographs.\n\nExhibition opening weekdays from 12-4.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Leveraging Quantum Optimization for Strategic Placement of Electric Vehicle Charging Infrastructure in Transportation Networks — CCAT Research Review
DESCRIPTION:Electric vehicles (EVs) play a significant role in enhancing the sustainability of transportation systems. However\, their widespread adoption is hindered by inadequate public charging infrastructure\, particularly to support long-distance travel. Identifying optimal charging station locations in large transportation networks presents a well-known NP-hard combinatorial optimization problem\, as the search space grows exponentially with the number of potential charging station locations. This paper introduces a quantum search-based optimization algorithm designed to enhance the efficiency of solving this NP-hard problem for transportation networks. By leveraging quantum parallelism\, amplitude amplification\, and quantum phase estimation as a subroutine\, the optimal solution is identified with a quadratic improvement in complexity compared to classical exact methods\, such as branch and bound. The detailed design and complexity of a resource-efficient quantum circuit are discussed.\n---\nAbout the speaker: Dr. Talebpour is an Assistant Professor in the Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign. He has more than 12 years of experience in teaching\, research\, and consulting in vehicle automation\, connected transportation system\, traffic analysis\, and traffic flow theory. He was leading Texas A&M’s team in SAE/GM AutoDrive Challenge (before joining UIUC)\, a four-year competition to develop a fully (level 4) autonomous vehicle among eight Universities. He is currently leading an FHWA-funded project focusing on trajectory data collection from CAV operations in highway and arterial environments\, “Third Generation Simulation Data (TGSIM)”. He has been working on developing algorithms for vehicle safety and efficiency in a connected and automated driving environment and has developed simulation tools to simultaneously simulate wireless communications and drivers and automated vehicles.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:DSI Lecture Series | Silicon Valley Imperialism: Techno Fantasies and Frictions
DESCRIPTION:In this presentation\, Erin McElroy will discuss Silicon Valley Imperialism: Techno Fantasies and Frictions in Postsocialist Times\, just published with Duke University Press. The book maps out processes of gentrification\, racial dispossession\, and economic predation that drove the development of Silicon Valley in the San Francisco Bay Area and also looks at how that logic has become manifest in postsocialist Romania. Drawing on ethnographic fieldwork and archival research in Romania and the United States\, McElroy exposes the mechanisms through which the appeal of Silicon Valley technocapitalism devours space and societies\, displaces residents\, and generates extreme income inequality in order to expand its reach. The book also explores how in Romania\, dreams of privatization have updated fascist pasts\, often in the name of anticommunism. At the same time\, McElroy accounts for the ways that activists and artists resist Silicon Valley capitalist logics\, building upon socialist-era worldviews not to restore state socialism but rather to establish more just social formations—helping materialize the unbecoming of Silicon Valley. The talk will conclude with a discussion of how Silicon Valley imperialism impacts transnational geographies of landlordism\, gesturing to some of McElroy’s newer work.\n\nErin McElroy is an Assistant Professor in the Department of Geography at the University of Washington\, where their work focuses upon intersections of gentrification\, technology\, empire\, and racial capitalism\, alongside housing justice organizing and transnational solidarities. McElroy is author of Silicon Valley Imperialism: Techno Fantasies and Frictions in Postsocialist Times (Duke University Press\, 2024) and coeditor of Counterpoints: A San Francisco Bay Area Atlas of Displacement and Resistance (PM Press\, 2021). Additionally\, McElroy is cofounder of the Anti-Eviction Mapping Project—a data visualization\, counter-cartography\, and digital media collective that produces tools\, maps\, reports\, murals\, zines\, oral histories\, and more to further the work of housing justice. At UW\, McElroy runs Landlord Tech Watch\, which produces collaborative research and collective knowledge on the dispossessive technologies of landlordism.\n\nWe strive to make our events accessible to all participants.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Colloquium Seminar: Martin's Conjecture and order-preserving functions
DESCRIPTION:The field of computability theory studies the complexity of uncomputable problems. In this study\, a special role is played by the Halting Problem—i.e. the problem of determining whether a given program stops after a finite number of steps or runs forever. Not only is it the first problem proved to be uncomputable\, it also seems to be the simplest \"natural\" uncomputable problem. Martin's Conjecture is a long-standing open question in computability theory which partially explains why the Halting Problem plays such a special role. A key idea behind Martin's Conjecture is to view the Halting Problem not just as an individual problem\, but as an operator on problems\, which takes any problem to a strictly harder one. Martin's Conjecture consists of a classification of such operators\, which says\, in part\, that the Halting Problem is the minimal non-trivial operator. I will discuss the background and motivation for Martin's Conjecture\, as well as recent progress by Benjamin Siskind and myself which essentially completes a proof of the conjecture for a special class of operators called \"order-preserving.\"

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:EHAP Lecture Series: Subjective Selection and the Evolution of the Cultural Manifold
DESCRIPTION:In 1896\, Franz Boas declared that “the most difficult problem of anthropology” was to explain cultural traditions “that develop with iron necessity wherever man lives”. In this talk\, I will present a research program that aims to return to Boas’s problem using tools and insights from modern sociocultural\, cognitive\, and evolutionary approaches. Addressing shamanism\, music\, and prosocial religion\, I will draw on cross-cultural and long-term ethnographic research suggesting that complex\, ubiquitous cultural traditions reliably emerge as humans create and preferentially retain traditions that appear to satisfy regular proximate goals\, reconciling diverse approaches within cultural evolution. Our profound cultural similarities reflect our capacity to craft culture that compellingly satisfies widespread motivations.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Organometallic Single-Molecule Magnets Containing Radicals and Bismuth
DESCRIPTION:Single-molecule magnets (SMMs) are molecules that possess an energy barrier to spin inversion\, giving rise to slow magnetic relaxation and magnetic hysteresis. To realize their intriguing potential applications\, ranging from molecular spintronics\, quantum computing\, to high-density information storage\, spin-reversal barriers (Ueff) and magnetic blocking temperatures (TB) must be increased. Lanthanide ions are especially well-suited for the design of SMMs due to their large magnetic moments and magnetic anisotropy that originate from strong spin-orbit coupling of the 4f orbitals. One effective methodology to boost blocking temperatures of multinuclear compounds is to generate strong magnetic exchange between lanthanide centers using radical bridging ligands. In the event of strong magnetic exchange coupling\, undesirable relaxation pathways such as quantum tunneling of the magnetization can be suppressed. Here\, the first isolation of the bisbenzimidazole radical anion (Bbim3−•) and its use in radical-bridged SMMs will be discussed\, Fig. 1.1\,2 Furthermore\, the isolation of the first fluoflavine radicals will be presented.3 A second approach to strong coupling employs heavy p-block elements since their diffuse valence orbitals facilitate better penetration of the core electron density of the lanthanide ions relative to diamagnetic ligands comprising lighter p-block elements. Here\, we will present the first lanthanide bismuth cluster SMMs containing a [Ln2Bi6] heterometallocubane core\, Fig. 1. We will also show that the Bi23−• radical anion can be tamed with rare earth ions to give the first SMMs featuring bismuth radicals\, Fig. 1.4\,5 We also synthesized complexes with diamagnetic 89Y (I = ½) to gain insight into the electronic structure and spin density distribution.6-9 The organometallic rare earth chemistry has been further advanced by the isolation of the first guanidinate complexes featuring a weakly coordinated tetraphenylborate anion\,10 which have ramifications for both magnet design and reactivity studies.11\,12\n\nReferences.

SUMMARY:Livestream / Virtual:Mind Matters: Navigating Pregnancy and Substance Use with Care and Support
DESCRIPTION:Substance Use Disorder is a chronic medical condition that affects 1 in 6 Americans. Unlike other common health conditions\, like asthma or heart disease\, stigma around substance use is very high. This is particularly true when people who use substances become pregnant.\n\nIn fact\, pregnant people with a substance use disorder often face the highest levels of stigma and judgment\, even when they ask for help. Substance use during pregnancy also comes with many health risks for the parent and child that are important to address. For these reasons\, it’s crucial to provide compassionate\, supportive\, respectful care for birthing people who are also experiencing a substance use disorder. As a community\, it is imperative that we resist judging pregnant people and instead help them as they begin their journey towards recovery.\n\nJoin us as experts from The Partnering for the Future (PFF) Clinic at University of Michigan Health Von Voigtlander Women’s Hospital and the U-M Department of Psychiatry discuss best practices—centering empathy and the very best research—for caring for birthing people with substance use disorders. Our experts will also share practical advice for those of us in the community who wish to better support loved ones who are experiencing addiction during their pregnancy.

SUMMARY:Performance:Mustafa
DESCRIPTION:Dunya\, the title of Mustafa’s masterfully crafted and breathtakingly tender full-length debut\, roughly translates from Arabic to “the world in all its flaws.” It’s a lofty subject for a young songwriter\, but as with every theme at the heart of the Sudanese-Canadian artist’s work—from religious devotion to childhood trauma\, gang violence to romantic intimacy—he approaches it through a personal lens. Blending genres and moods\, weaving novelistic details into instantly memorable folk songs\, he has crafted a record that feels like a series of personal breakthroughs\, arriving one after the other. \n\nThe first thing that strikes you about Mustafa’s music has always been his writing: a simple\, piercing tone that can make any story feel as raw and earnest as the words to a love song. With a hushed delivery that can silence his surroundings\, Mustafa evolved swiftly from a child prodigy reciting poems throughout his native Toronto to a behind-the-scenes pop songwriting force. On Dunya\, he becomes a full-on auteur in his own right. \n\n“I’m trying to preserve and celebrate the ordinary life in the hood\,” Mustafa notes of his lyrical inspiration. Exploring his upbringing and trajectory onward\, these songs are equally disarming in their simplicity and multilayered in their emotional breadth. Featuring appearances from collaborators such as Aaron Dessner\, Rosalía\, Clairo\, Nicolas Jaar\, and more\, alongside Mustafa’s longtime creative partner Simon Hessmann\, the music reveals a confident\, distinctive voice that’s never sounded more poised for the masses. Even when it sounds like he’s taking on the world\, Mustafa is speaking only for himself: a story that he knows is just getting started.
