SUMMARY:Exhibition:Behind the Curve: Rainbows and the Science and Culture of Color
DESCRIPTION:We have many significant books from the history of our understanding of rainbows and color theory\, from the writings of scholar Ḥasan Ibn al-Haytham to Isaac Newton’s 1704 Opticks. Rainbows appear across the spectrum of our collections\, and this exhibit includes a handwritten illuminated manuscript\, practical color manuals of the industrial age\, contemporary artists’ and children’s books\, and more from our vast holdings. \n\nRainbows have captivated people for all of recorded history. It’s hard not to think of them as physical objects\, but they are really just distorted images of the sun\, positioned around the viewer’s head. They require someone to perceive them to exist\, and thus have much in common with colors and color theory in general. And\, like colors\, they are about relationships: of one color next to another\, and of colors and the people who see them. The rainbow has had many different cultural interpretations over the years\, and most recently has become synonymous with gay pride\, appearing all over each June.\n\nHatcher Gallery Exhibit Room Hours:\nSunday\, 2-8pm\nMonday-Thursday\, 9am-8pm\nFriday\, 9am-4pm\nSaturday\, 11am-5pm

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:Workshop / Seminar:Bioinformatics Town Hall at NCRC - Rescheduled
DESCRIPTION:The event on Monday\, May 12\, will be rescheduled. You are invited to join us on Thursday\, May 15\, from 11:00 am - 12:00 pm\, at the Taubman Health Sciences Library (THSL)\, Room 6000. Learn more and Register (https://medresearch.umich.edu/events/bioinformatics-town-hall-thsl/2025-05-15). You are also invited to take a short survey (https://umich.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_5mYSQ3OszoHn2UC). \n---\nWe need your help with an important initiative in the Med School Office of Research and Biomedical Research Core Facilities (BRCF) to better align bioinformatics support with research needs.\n\nSince becoming a recharge facility in 2012\, the BRCF Bioinformatics Core has seen major changes in the bioinformatics landscape. Platforms now offer bundled analysis support\, and researchers use commercial or open-source systems (e.g.\, nf-Core/Seqera\, Epi2Me\, Illumina Partek).\n\nOther informatics cores at U-M have also expanded\, and labs are gaining computational skills. Despite this\, bioinformatics still presents challenges and frustrations for many researchers. Changes at the NIH may also impact the availability of bioinformatics support.\n\nTo address these issues\, we aim to engage the research community and ensure the BRCF Bioinformatics Core meets evolving needs. We are gathering feedback through focus groups\, surveys\, and town halls:\n\nJoin us for coffee\, cookies\, and an open discussion of bioinformatics needs. \n\nNCRC - Monday\, May 12\, 10:00 am - 11:00 am\, Building 10\, Rooms G063/G064 --> This event will be rescheduled.\nMed Campus - Thursday\, May 15\, 11:00 am - 12:00 pm\, Taubman Health Sciences Library (THSL)\, Room 6000\n\nRegister today! https://forms.gle/Br2Zex7Uv7zT7UNg6\n\nCan't make the town halls?

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Laura Reitz Dissertation Defense
DESCRIPTION:Cyanobacterial harmful algal blooms (cHABs) are the proliferation of a diverse community of photosynthetic bacteria in marine and freshwater ecosystems. cHABs are globally distributed and pose risk to humans and wildlife health due to their ability to produce secondary metabolites that have toxic effects\, known as cyanotoxins. Changes in the climate such as increased temperature and precipitation\, which causes excess loading of nutrients such as nitrogen and phosphorus from runoff into waterways\, promote proliferation of cHABs. Microcystis spp. are often the dominant genera in freshwater cHABs globally and produce the cyanotoxin microcystin\, which has hepatotoxic effects. In the western basin of Lake Erie\, annual cHABs dominated by Microcystis spp. have occurred May through September for over four decades\, often yielding microcystin concentrations exceeding the World Health Organization and United States federal Environmental Protection Agency’s drinking water guideline of 1-1.6µg/L.\n\nIn this dissertation\, three studies used genomic analyses to identify specific cyanobacterial genotypes involved in cyanotoxin production and investigated how they interact with other microbes in cHABs\, leveraging Lake Erie as a model system for similar blooms in other regions. In Chapter 2\, single-copy core genes were identified as markers of Microcystis strain diversity and were found via comparative genomics to resolve Microcystis phylogenies better than previously identified marker genes. The markers identified were also found to be useful in inferring Microcystis gene content and phenotypes such as potential production of secondary metabolites such as cyanotoxins. Chapter 3 characterized and linked mcy genotypes with microcystin congeners via spatiotemporal profiling. Results show that the diversity of microcystin congener type is due to a combination of environmental and genetic diversity. Even with genetic diversity not being the sole driver of congener diversity\, specific single nucleotide polymorphisms were identified to be associated with biochemically important domains within the mcy operon and to be strongly correlated to the increased abundance of specific congeners. Lastly\, in chapter 4\, the cyanobacterium Pseudanabaena\, which is commonly associated with\nMicrocystis and inhabits the Microcystis phycosphere\, was genetically and metabolomically characterized to provide insight potential interactions between these two organisms. Pseudanabaena was found to have the capability to produce many different compounds which could have mutualistic and potentially allelopathic effects on Microcystis and its associated microbiome. Together\, these studies highlight the genetic variability in cyanobacteria and how it can be an indicator of production for specific natural compounds such as cyanotoxins\, which could influence how the organism interacts with other community members and its impact on the environment. Additionally\, it serves as a basis for future studies to elucidate mechanisms of genetic regulation of production of microcystins.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Practicing Flexibility Using Journal-Keeping in the Classroom
DESCRIPTION:Part of CRLTs Equity-Focused Teaching @ Michigan Series\nJournal-keeping describes a wide range of personal writing\, archiving\, and expressive practices in which no one reads or has access to what is written except the keeper or writer. Combining rhetorical theory with practical experimentation and reflection\, this workshop introduces participants to journal-keeping as a pedagogical practice that both students and instructors can use to deepen our critical engagement with complex questions of power and equity. In particular\, we’ll explore how journal-keeping both enables and requires a high degree of flexibility in instructional expectations.

SUMMARY:Performance:Vienna Teng with special guest Alex Wong
DESCRIPTION:New music!\n\nSongwriter Vienna Teng re-emerges this fall with her mashup song pair We’ve Got You - her first new music in over a decade - but her fans have been here the whole time. They’ve packed concert venues even in years between releases\, crowdfunded an ambitious music video in hours\, and joined by the hundreds when she launched her “music x climate action” Patreon in 2022.\n\nThat kind of devotion has poured forth since 2002’s Waking Hour\, which landed her on NPR’s Weekend Edition\, The Late Show with David Letterman\, and the top of Amazon’s music charts. Across four more studio albums that followed - the chamber folk of Warm Strangers\, the jazz-inflected Dreaming Through the Noise\, the indie epic Inland Territory\, the bright electro-pop in Aims - Vienna has paid homage to her genre-bending heroes like Paul Simon and Tori Amos\, while carving a path all her own. Together with her captivating live performances and thoughtful online presence\, her work has built a loyal following across generations and continents. \n\nVienna’s new mini-EP We’ve Got You reflects the complexity of her life over the past decade: climate change work\, community building\, parenthood. Two songs\, each titled “We’ve Got You\,” act like fraternal twins: one an indie-pop tribute to inspiring leaders\, the other a chamber-folk paean to unsung caregivers. Played simultaneously\, they reveal a new intricate whole: a mashup by design\, and a love letter to social movements.\n\nAppropriately\, Vienna now also hosts climate action workshops on tour and online\, which participants have described as “rocket fuel” and “the perfect antidote to despair.” It’s an exciting new chapter in the ever-evolving love story between an artist and her audience.
