SUMMARY:Exhibition:2025 Second Year Studio Exhibition
DESCRIPTION:August 18 - October 24\, 2025Exhibition Reception: September 11\, 3-5 p.m.\n\"In their second year\, Stamps students complete a major milestone: Second Year Studio (SYS). It’s a course where\, per the syllabus\, students 'develop the capacity to work independently by identifying\, exploring\, and pursuing a single independent project that involves multiple iterations.' Each student takes their own path\, encountering questions that can shape the direction of their creative practice—how do I manage my time? How much constraint vs. freedom do I thrive on? What subject matter do I care about most deeply? How do my ideas about my future goals intersect with the work I want to make now? At the end of the semester\, students formally report on their experience in a presentation called the Sophomore Review\, and a faculty panel offers individualized feedback. \nUntil now\, the classroom studios and review rooms have been the only place to catch a glimpse of the art and design work resulting from this pivotal course. Last year\, Associate Dean for Academic Programs Rebecca Strzelec proposed something new: an exhibition installed throughout the Art &amp\; Architecture Building during the summer that would celebrate Second Year Studio work and help to welcome the community back in the Fall. This inaugural 2025 Second Year Studio Exhibition showcases our rising third-years and transfer students\, and invites first-years and other newcomers to explore both the building\, and the creative possibilities ahead. The show features 44 students who have volunteered to participate\, yet it honors every Stamps major who reaches the SYS milestone. \nThe pieces on view span a wide array of media and capture a specific moment in each maker’s path—experiments in previously unfamiliar methods\, emergent passions\, creative risks taken\, iterations and reiterations\, and the seeds of so much future work.\"\n- Sally Clegg\, Lecturer and Student Exhibitions Coordinator\nExhibiting Artists and Designers\n\nRobin Beaney\nAdi Behar\nDavid Byun\nZoë Corley\nChloe Dennis\nViktoriya Finyak\nMaria Elena García-Murguía\nElisa Gasser\nOlivia Glynn\nRoe Halbert\nNadav Havilio\nDee Holmes\nRuby Hough\nUrvi Joshi\nEunice Kim\nHannah Kryzhan\nBen Levitsky\nJoyce Liu\nKatelyn Ma\nAlexandria Mainor\nErin Malone\nSummer Mansi\nCheyenne Moore\nElla Moxon\nShafiq Muqit\nAlex Nguyen\nAnna Noh\nLeanna Mokihana Paik\nEva Park\nMichelle Peng\nEliana Pettigrew\nZainab Rahmani\nOlivia Reed\nSky Roberts\nZachary Sebestyen\nOliver Lee St Cyr\nSophie Stillwagon\nVeronica Weinberg\nCaitlin Weingarden\nNala Arielle White\nAriel Williams\nSilas Williams\nKatherine Xu\nJoy Yang\n

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Quantum Research Institute | Precision measurements and quantum sensing using cold atoms
DESCRIPTION:In-Person: Michigan Memorial Phoenix Project - PML2000\nVirtual Over Zoom: https://umich.zoom.us/j/97924298308?jst=2\n\nTitle: Precision measurements and quantum sensing using cold atoms\n\nAbstract: Emerging applications of laser-cooled atomic gases are one of the drivers of modern quantum science and technology. In this talk\, I will review several prominent examples and their interconnection with fundamental atomic physics and precision measurements. In the first part\, I will describe how investigating photoionization of one of the excited states of rubidium led to the development and demonstration of a cold-atom-based ion source with the novel method of monitoring ionic electric fields using highly-excited (Rydberg) atoms. I will also present a new type of Rydberg molecule that is formed as a result of interactions between ions and Rydberg atoms. Next\, I will describe precision measurements of the hyperfine structure of a different excited state in rubidium and how these investigations led to a proposal of a novel optical atomic clock that can be an alternative to existing portable technologies. Finally\, if time permits\, I will discuss a novel technique for atom interferometry based on uninterrupted full spatial confinement and control of atomic wave packets. This approach\, termed “tractor atom interferometry”\, aims to address drawbacks of the existing setups and provide new applications in fundamental physics and inertial sensing.\n\nBio: Alisher is originally from Kazakhstan\, where he obtained his BS in Physics from Nazarbayev University in Astana. After two-semester stay at Okinawa Institute of Science and Technology\, Japan\, he came to the University of Michigan\, Ann Arbor\, from where he received his PhD in Physics in 2024\, as well as MS in Electrical and Computer Engineering in 2021. Alisher did his graduate work in the group of Professor Georg Raithel\, where his areas of research included atomic\, molecular and optical physics\, laser cooling and trapping\, Rydberg atoms and molecules\, quantum sensing\, and precision measurements. After one year as a postdoctoral researcher in Joint Quantum Institute at the University of Maryland\, College Park\, Alisher recently joined Rydberg Technologies Inc. as a research scientist/atomic physicist. He has received several awards and prizes\, including Rackham Predoctoral Fellowship\, Wirt and Mary Cornwell Prize\, ProQuest Distinguished Dissertation Award\, and\, more recently\, Duncan Steel Thesis Prize.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:IES Energy Seminar Series - Exploiting Intersectoral Synergies for Decarbonization
DESCRIPTION:Abstract:\nThe energy transition will deepen interactions between sectors\, requiring models that co-optimize objectives across sectors. I will present three studies that co-optimize between different sectors. The first will focus on the intersection between the buildings and the electricity sector. Electrifying buildings using heat pumps is essential for decarbonization but may exacerbate trade-offs between the sometimes-conflicting objectives of building occupants\, power systems\, and society. To navigate these trade-offs\, we develop a modeling framework that rapidly co-optimizes home energy bills\, indoor temperatures\, power system air pollution externalities\, and the monetized cost of meeting peak demand. The second study will estimate the impact of controlled charging of battery electric vehicles (BEVs) and vehicle-to-home charging on lifetime GHG emissions and homeowner utility bills. Compared to uncontrolled charging\, optimizing charging and using EV batteries to optimally shift electricity purchases for other household loads\, a strategy referred to as V2H\, could reduce emissions from non-EV loads by more than EV charging increases emissions in 69% of U.S. counties\, covering 62% of the population. V2H could cut costs by $3800 (5th-95th percentile range $2400-$5600) or 61% (37%-91%)\, and life-cycle emissions by 38tCO2e (24tCO2e-57tCO2e) or 89% (50%-150%). In the third study\, we present a consequential emissions analysis of vehicle to grid charging of BEVs\, which accounts for induced structural changes in the power system. This induced investment reverses V2G’s emission effects: estimates ignoring capacity changes show BEVs increase grid emissions externalities by $240–610 per BEV-year\, whereas estimates accounting for induced renewable investments show adding BEVs reduces grid emission externalities by $2200 per BEV-year with V2G.\n\nBiography:\nParth Vaishnav is an Assistant Professor of Sustainable Systems at the University of Michigan.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:The Department of Astronomy 2025-2026 Colloquium Series Presents:
DESCRIPTION:Title: Searching for the First Stars with Stellar Archaeology\n\nAbstract: The first stars formed directly out of pristine big bang material. These metal-free Population III stars are thought to have been unusually massive\, and their lives and deaths set the stage for all subsequent cosmic evolution. The properties of Population III stars cannot be directly determined at high redshift\, but they still can be accessed observationally using nearby relic stars and galaxies that have survived from ancient times with an approach called Stellar Archaeology. The elemental abundances of such old\, metal-poor stars encode otherwise inaccessible information about the first stars. I will present recent insights into the nature of the first stars gleaned from stellar archaeology\, including new observational constraints on the nature of the first supernova explosions and steps towards understanding the initial mass function. I will show that current methods are likely probing only a subset of all Population III stars that existed. These limitations can likely be overcome as we move into the era of industrial stellar spectroscopy and extremely large telescopes.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:2025 Ziwet Lectures
DESCRIPTION:Tuesday\, September 9\, 4 pm\, East Hall 1324: Science 2.0 - Evolving the Scientific Method in the Age of AI\nThere will be a reception after the Tuesday Colloquium in the Math Upper Atrium.\n\nWednesday\, September 10\, 4 pm\, East Hall 1360: Matrix-Mimetic Tensor Algebra: Optimal Decompositions and Equivariant Learning\n\nThursday\, September 11\, 4 pm\, East Hall 4448: From Big Data to Right Data: Information-Theoretic Optimal Experimental Design\n\n\nTuesday\, September 9\, 4 pm\, East Hall 1324: Science 2.0 - Evolving the Scientific Method in the Age of AI\nThis lecture addresses the historical trade-off between interpretable but expertise-dependent deductive models and scalable but non-interpretable data-driven approaches by introducing hybrid AI frameworks that transcend this divide. We present AI-Descartes (generator-verifier paradigm)\, AI-Hilbert (unified hypothesis generation and testing)\, and AI-Noether (algebraic-geometric theory revision via abductive reasoning) as transformative approaches to mathematical model discovery. These frameworks advocate for conceptual evolution of the scientific method toward deeper AI integration in pursuing both interpretable and universal models.\n\nWednesday\, September 10\, 4 pm\, East Hall 1360: Matrix-Mimetic Tensor Algebra: Optimal Decompositions and Equivariant Learning\nThis lecture introduces a novel tensor-tensor algebra that preserves essential matrix-algebraic properties while overcoming limitations of conventional tensorial frameworks\, culminating in an Eckart-Young-like theorem that resolves a decades-long open problem in tensor analysis. We demonstrate how this framework enables seamless retrofitting of existing computational workflows (Hamiltonian neural networks\, tensor Graph Convolutional Networks) and extends to tensor group symmetry theory for equivariant learning applications. This work opens pathways to new tensorial algebras that can reveal deeper patterns in high-dimensional information previously inaccessible to traditional methods.\n\nThursday\, September 11\, 4 pm\, East Hall 4448: From Big Data to Right Data: Information-Theoretic Optimal Experimental Design\nThis lecture addresses the modern paradox where unprecedented data accumulation capabilities make selective identification of informative samples more critical than ever for meaningful model development. We review theoretical foundations of experimental design within inverse problems frameworks\, examining strategies for well-posed and ill-posed settings while establishing approaches for design preferences\, budget allocation\, and risk assessment. Through information-theoretic principles\, we demonstrate how optimal experimental design creates a paradigm shift from data volume to information content\, with transformative implications for resource-constrained scientific methodology.\n\nDr. Lior Horesh is a Principal Research Scientist\, Master Inventor and a Senior Manager of the ‎Mathematics & Theoretical Computer Science (formerly Mathematics of AI) department at IBM Research.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:EEB Thursday Seminar Series - Plant disease dynamics in a warmer world: insights from Plantago and their powdery mildew pathogens
DESCRIPTION:Seminar Summary - I will highlight our lab’s current projects which explore the effects of large- and small-scale climate variation on the ecology and evolution of plant diseases. Our focal system for this work involves natural populations of Plantago host plants and their powdery mildew pathogens. We use observational\, experimental\, and theoretical approaches to study these plant-fungus interactions along a large latitudinal gradient (spanning from southern Louisiana to northern Minnesota) and across an urbanization gradient in St. Louis\, Missouri. Key research questions we have recently asked include: How does climate shape the geographic distribution and seasonality of powdery mildew on Plantago around the world? Are powdery mildew strains locally adapted to temperature or to host genotypes along a latitudinal gradient? In what geographic regions and seasons can powdery mildew undergo sexual reproduction? How do powdery mildew dynamics vary within and between host populations across a gradient of urbanization? Why are there larger powdery mildew epidemics in more urban populations? Our answers to these questions fill critical gaps in understanding wild plant-pathogen interactions in an increasingly warm and urbanized world.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:EIHS Lecture: Pop after Empire: Disco\, Decolonization\, and the Re-Making of a Music Industry
DESCRIPTION:In this talk\, Kira Thurman investigates the rise of Black Europeans in popular music since WWII. After the collapse of European empires\, European popular music industries turned to the musical labor of former colonial subjects to reinvent themselves in an increasingly global and English-speaking marketplace. Interpreting many Black European pop stars such as Boney M or Milli Vanilli as Black Americans\, however\, transatlantic listeners often failed to recognize the musicians performing in front of them as belonging to European history. How\, then\, do we account for both the overwhelming presence—and discursive absence—of Black Europeans in modern history? This talk seeks to illuminate how musical producers\, performers\, and their audiences sought to make sense of—and occasionally reject—the category of ‘Black Europe’ in the wake of a newly emerging post-imperial Western Europe.\n\nKira Thurman is an associate professor of History at the University of Michigan\, with affiliations in Germanic Languages & Literatures\, Musicology (School of Music\, Theatre\, and Dance)\, and AfroAmerican and African Studies. Her research explores Europe’s contemporary and historical relationship with the Black diaspora. Her first book\, \"Singing like Germans: Black Musicians in the Land of Bach\, Beethoven\, and Brahms\" (Cornell University Press\, 2021) won seven awards\, including the George Mosse Prize in European Intellectual and Cultural History from the American Historical Association and the Judy Tsou Critical Race Studies Award from the American Musicological Society. NPR selected it as one of their favorite books of 2021.\n\nThis event presented by the Eisenberg Institute for Historical Studies. It is made possible in part by a generous contribution from Kenneth and Frances Aftel Eisenberg.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:GEOMETRY SEMINAR: The ring of cooperations for real Hermitian K-theory
DESCRIPTION:In the 80s\, Mahowald used the bo-Adams spectral sequence to determine the v1-periodicity in the stable homotopy groups of spheres. Towards computing this spectral sequence\, one must compute the ring of cooperations for bo. In motivic homotopy theory\, there is a spectrum representing Hermitian K-theory called kq\, which has many properties similar to bo. We will compute the ring of cooperations for Hermitian K-theory over the real numbers and show what this indicates for the real kq-Adams spectral sequence. Time permitting\, we will discuss related splittings in joint work with Guchuan Li\, Sarah Petersen\, and Liz Tatum.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:The 38th Graham Hovey Lecture with NPR's Andrea Hsu
DESCRIPTION:A sweeping effort to expand presidential power and overhaul the federal government began the moment Donald Trump returned to the White House on January 20\, 2025. Executive orders targeted the federal workforce\, reducing its size and making it more responsive to executive authority. Within a few months\, tens of thousands of federal employees were fired\, and far more resigned amid threats of mass layoffs. While a flurry of lawsuits has slowed those actions\, it’s abundantly clear that the government workforce is not what it was on January 20. What’s unclear is what the government will ultimately become and how the country will be changed in the process.\n\nNPR labor and workplace correspondent Andrea Hsu\, a 2012 Knight-Wallace Fellow\, has been closely covering the upheaval inside government agencies and the legal fights surrounding it. She’ll share insights from those still working within federal agencies and those who have recently been pushed out\, and explore what this transformation could mean for how Americans experience and rely on their government.\n\nThis is an in-person event and will not be live-streamed. However\, a recording of the lecture will be available on our website following the event. Reception following the lecture.\n\nAbout the Speaker\nAndrea Hsu began her journalism career as a locally hired researcher for the BBC’s Beijing bureau. She joined NPR’s Washington\, D.C.\, newsroom in 2002\, spending nearly two decades as a producer for “All Things Considered.” In late 2020\, she transitioned to NPR’s business desk\, where she reported on how the COVID-19 pandemic reshaped the workforce. Since 2021\, she has served as NPR’s labor and workplace correspondent\, focusing on the evolving dynamics of work in the United States.\n\nAbout the Graham Hovey Lecture\nThe annual Graham Hovey Lecture recognizes a Knight-Wallace journalist whose career exemplifies the benefits of a fellowship at the University of Michigan and whose ensuing work is at the forefront of our national conversations. The event is named for the late Graham Hovey\, director of the fellowship program from 1980 to 1986 and a distinguished journalist for The New York Times.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Penny Stamps Speaker Series - Catherine Chalmers
DESCRIPTION:Catherine Chalmers’ work lies at the intersection of art\, science\, and nature. She conducts extensive research for each of her long-term\, multimedia projects\, and direct\, physical engagement with the natural world is central to her process. Through her art\, she aims to give form to the richness—as well as the brutality and indifference—that often characterize humanity’s relationship with nature.\n\nChalmers uses the narrative possibilities of the visual arts to bridge the growing divide between humans and the environment\, and to creatively engage with the systems that support life on Earth. She believes that culture is far richer when it includes and considers other life forms.\n\nThough she has worked across media—from engineering and painting to photography\, video\, sculpture\, and drawing—her artistic practice has always centered on one core issue: how to confront and challenge an anthropocentric worldview. Humanity has long drawn lines in the sand to define what belongs and what does not. Perhaps now\, in the dawn of the Anthropocene\, it is time to reconsider those lines—and what lives on the other side.\n\nChalmers’ current work\, Conifer Trees\, Bark Beetles & Fire\, is a deeply personal project that aims to explore the intricate relationship between beetles\, wildfires\, and trees\, while shedding light on the broader consequences of human actions on forest ecology. By revealing both the beauty and the tragedy within these natural processes\, Chalmers hopes to inspire a deeper understanding and appreciation of the complexities of environmental conservation and the vital role art plays in conveying these insights.\n\nCatherine Chalmers holds a B.S. in Engineering from Stanford University and an M.F.A. in Painting from the Royal College of Art\, London. She has exhibited her artwork around the world\, including MoMA PS1\, MASS MoCA\, The Drawing Center\, Kunsthalle Vienna\, and the Today Art Museum in Beijing\, among others. Her work has been featured in The New York Times\, The New Yorker\, The Washington Post\, The Brooklyn Rail\, Time Out New York\, ArtNews\, Artforum\, and on PBS\, CNN\, NPR\, and the BBC. Two books have been published on her work: FOOD CHAIN (Aperture\, 2000) and AMERICAN COCKROACH (Aperture\, 2004).\n\nChalmers’ video Safari won Best Experimental Short at the SXSW Film Festival in 2008. In 2010\, Chalmers received a Guggenheim Fellowship\, and in 2015\, she was awarded a Rauschenberg Residency. Her video Leafcutters won Best Environmental Short at the 2018 Natourale Film Festival in Wiesbaden\, Germany\; in 2019\, it received the Gil Omenn Art &amp\; Science Award at the Ann Arbor Film Festival. She lives in New York City.\n\nCatherine Chalmers' exhibition\, Conifer Trees\, Bark Beetles\, and Fire\, will be on view at the University of Michigan Institute for the Humanities Gallery from September 11 to October 24\, 2025. An opening reception will follow her Penny Stamps Speaker Series event\, taking place at the gallery from 6:30 to 8:00 p.m.\n\nPresented in partnership with the University of Michigan Institute for the Humanities. This project was made possible by a grant from the Arts Initiative at the University of Michigan.\n\nSeries presenting partners: Detroit PBS\, ALL ARTS\, and PBS Books. Media partner: Michigan Public.

SUMMARY:Performance:The Langan Band
DESCRIPTION:“That a few guys from Glasgow could conspire to create such an immense sound between them is not unprecedented\, but to achieve this with such lyrical and instrumental flair is a rare\, rare thing” –Folk Radio UK\n\nFor over 15 years now\, the three members of The Langan Band have been carving out their own lawlessly virtuosic path of sound\; rampaging through the boundaries of conventional genre and cavorting into the territories of wild abandon\, purest intimacy\, and unconditional musical elation.\n\nThe trio were initially brought together by a deep respect of traditional song and music\, yet they discovered a mutual love of the evisceration and regeneration of these pieces into provocative and fascinating new compositions\, as was recognised by the band winning the prestigious Danny Kyle Award at Glasgow’s Celtic Connections Festival at the start of their journey together. This sound and process went on to inform the band’s now mostly original repertoire\, and has resulted in a musical experience quite unlike any other.\n\nAyrshire-born John Langan is found centre-stage\, seated on an explosive foot percussion rig of his own devising and fronting the trio with intricate fiery guitar rhythms and witheringly sweet and scathing vocals. To his right stands Alastair Caplin\, a classically trained violinist equally discerning in both the London Prog-Folk/Jazz scenes he occupied for years and also the blistering traditional reels and jigs of his native Outer Hebrides. Stage left is the domain of Angus-born Dave Tunstall and his double bass\; from here emanates a seductive concoction of eerily-bowed soundscapes\, heart-stopping bass lines\, and in conjunction with Caplin’s blurred bowing a truly monumental wall of orchestral noise. The sound of the group reaches its zenith when all of these instruments are joined by the three voices singing together in razor-tight harmony to create an absolute cacophony of joy.\n\nWhilst it is possible to see the evidence of influences the band have drawn on and enjoyed (Trad. Scots music\, Eastern European Gypsy\, Bluegrass and American Old-Time to name a few)\, the true nature of the sound from The Langan Band is best described as un-pigeon-holeable\, yet utterly irresistible.\n\nIn 2024 the band broke onto the North American market with 5 tours of USA & Canada. Through huge mainstage performances at festivals such as Telluride Bluegrass and radio play such as the prestigious Mountain Stage Radio\, they are building a loyal and wild new fanbase across the Atlantic.
