SUMMARY:Livestream / Virtual:Roadway Friction Screening and Measurement with Automated Vehicle Telematics and Control — CCAT Research Review
DESCRIPTION:This project develops an automated roadway friction screening and measurement system using telematics-based cooperative perception and customized AV control. The system offers a low-cost\, automated alternative to traditional friction measurement methods\, enabling frequent\, wide-area monitoring without the need for dedicated instrument calibration.\n\nLeveraging Physics-Enhanced Residual Learning (PERL)\, the AV control module achieves high slip ratios at peak Tire-Road Friction Coefficient (TRFC) values\, improving estimation accuracy. Cooperative perception aggregates telematics data from connected AVs and regular vehicles (RVs)\, mitigating individual measurement errors and expanding coverage across diverse road conditions. A network smart routing strategy is proposed to optimize AV deployment for friction sensing\, utilizing real-time traffic and environmental data without incurring extra resource costs. Field validation will be conducted at the Level-3 CAV testbed at the University of Wisconsin–Madison\, using vehicles equipped with FHWA CDA CARMA capabilities.\n\nMore on this research: https://myumi.ch/XGxQX\n---\nAbout the speakers:\nDr. Xiaopeng (Shaw) Li is currently a Professor in the Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering and an affiliate in the Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering at the University of Wisconsin-Madison (UW-Madison).

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Disrupting the Information Order in Health Care: Institutions\, Policy Regimes\, and the Value of Data
DESCRIPTION:The 21st Century Cures Act API Rule seeks to increase the interoperability of patients’ electronic health information (EHI) – individually identifiable patient information related to medical treatment\, which can enable actors outside the institutional context and special data protections of health care to gain access to private data. We examine stakeholders’ comments during the Notice of Public Rulemaking on the Cures Act API Rule to show not only how institutional context shapes their views\, but also how the change to data flows may also disrupt established institutional meanings and mechanisms. The technical change of the API Rule leads insiders to defend\, while enabling outsiders to disrupt institutions in health care. We show how disruption to existing institutional logics\, relationships\, and the information order challenges professional control of information\, threatens provider-patient relationships\, and upsets the property rights and data protections of private data in ways that may threaten the existing institutional order of health care in the United States.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Friday Night AI
DESCRIPTION:Panelists: Prof. Jonathan Brennan\, Hrithik Ravi\nModerator: Prof. Rada Mihalcea\nInteractive Activities: Yara El-Tawil\, Snehal Prabhudesai\nOrganizer: Michigan AI Lab\, in collaboration with the Ann Arbor District Library\nWhen: September 5\, 2025\, 6:30pm – 7:30pm\nWhere: AADL Ann Arbor downtown\,1st Floor Lobby (343 S 5th Ave\, Ann Arbor\, MI 48104)\n\nAI is increasingly embedded into our daily lives\, influencing the way we think\, learn\, and interact with the world. But as we rely on algorithms to help us write\, navigate\, and even make decisions\, several fundamental questions arise: Is AI shaping our habits\, our skills\, and our sense of self? Are we enhancing human capabilities\, or do we end up outsourcing them? Join us for a conversation with experts in AI\, psychology\, and ethics as we explore how AI may be quietly reshaping our cognition\, relationships\, and daily lives. We’ll ask where the line lies between assistance and overreliance\, and what it means to remain human in a machine-augmented world. With interactive activities developed by graduate students Snehal Prabhudesai and Yara El-Tawil.\n\nAbout the speakers:\n\nJonathan R. Brennan is an Associate Professor of Linguistics and Psychology at the Univeristy of Michigan where he directs the Computational Neurolinguistics Laboratory. His research focuses on how the human brain creates and makes sense of language\, drawing on theories and methods from linguistics\, neuroscience\, and computer science. This research is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and National Institutes of Health. He recieved his PhD in 2010 from New York University and completed post-doctoral training at the Children's Hospital of Philadelphia. He received the Early Career Award from the Society for the Neurobiology of Language in 2019 and is the author\, in 2022\, of \"Language and the Brain: A slim guide to Neurolinguistics.\n\nHrithik Ravi is an AI researcher currently working with Prof. Rada Mihalcea and Prof. Ambuj Tewari to explain why AIs can't solve basic planning and reasoning tasks. He completed his BSE in Computer Science and MS in Machine Learning\, both at the University of Michigan.

SUMMARY:Presentation:MPSDS JPSM Seminar Series - Where Granularity Matters: Calibrating Subdomain Inference for Binary Outcomes
DESCRIPTION:MPSDS JPSM Seminar Series\nMPSDS M3 Series\n\nSeptember 3\, 2025\n12:00 - 1:00 pm EST\n\nIn person\, room 1070\, Institute for Social Research and via Zoom.\nThe Zoom call will be locked 10 minutes after the start of the presentation.\n\nWhere Granularity Matters: Calibrating Subdomain Inference for Binary Outcomes\nSmall area estimation (SAE) helps us make accurate estimates for local communities or groups\, such as counties\, neighborhoods\, or demographic subgroups\, when there are not enough data for each area. This is important for targeting local resources and policies\, especially when national-level or large-area data mask variation at a more granular level. Researchers often fit hierarchical Bayesian models to stabilize estimates when data are sparse. Ideally\, Bayesian procedures also exhibit good frequentist properties\, as demonstrated by calibrated Bayes techniques. However\, hierarchical Bayesian models tend to shrink subdomain estimates toward the overall mean and may produce credible intervals that do not maintain nominal coverage. Hoff et al. developed the Frequentist\, but Assisted by Bayes (FAB) intervals for subgroup estimates with normally distributed outcomes. However\, non-normally distributed data present new challenges\, and multiple types of intervals have been proposed for estimating proportions. We examine subdomain inference with binary outcomes and extend FAB intervals to improve nominal coverage and estimation efficiency. We describe how to numerically compute FAB intervals in the binary case and demonstrate their improvement through repeated simulation studies. Finally\, we apply the proposed methods to estimate COVID-19 infection rates in subgroups\, based on geography and demographic characteristics. This is joint work with Rayleigh Lei.\n\nYajuan Si is a Research Associate Professor in the Institute for Social Research at the University of Michigan. Yajuan’s research lies in cutting-edge methodology development in streams of Bayesian statistics\, linking design- and model-based approaches to survey inference\, data integration\, missing data analysis\, confidentiality protection involving the creation and analysis of synthetic datasets\, and causal inference with observational data. She regularly teaches courses on statistics and sampling in the Michigan Program in Survey and Data Science and the Joint Program in Survey Methodology.

SUMMARY:Presentation:QuantUM Speaker Series: Gokul Ravi
DESCRIPTION:Join QuantUM for our first speaker series of the 2025-2026 school year! We're co-hosting the event with the Scientific Computing Club\, and it's open to the general public. Dr. Gokul Ravi\, assistant professor in CSE and fellow at Michigan's Quantum Research Institute will be presenting a talk on quantum algorithms. The talk is tailored to students of all backgrounds\, and no previous knowledge of quantum computing is required.\n\nThe event is from 6:00-7:00 PM in West Hall 340. We'll serve free food 🍕 at 5:40 PM across the hall in the Don Meyer common. Come learn about quantum software\, converse with passionate peers\, and eat some complementary grub 😋.\n\nTalk Abstract: \nQuantum computing (QC) is a transformative technology with the potential to revolutionize computing. Despite major theoretical and experimental progress over the past three decades\, a significant gap remains between the demands of quantum applications and the capabilities of current hardware. QC still faces major challenges in delivering accurate\, efficient solutions to real-world problems. The quantum ecosystem is inherently hybrid\, with quantum devices tightly coupled to classical hardware and software. Advancing these components in a synergistic manner is essential to bridging this need-capability gap and enabling a practical quantum future. As the field continues to grow\, substantial progress is needed at the quantum-classical interface\, including: (a) scalable software for executing real-world applications on noisy devices\, (b) low-cost\, efficient classical hardware with minimal latency and bandwidth limitations for scaling up quantum processing\, and (c) a smooth transition path from noisy devices to fault-tolerant systems. In this talk\, I will highlight several examples of our research addressing these challenges.

SUMMARY:Presentation:UMTRI Distinguished Speaker Series: Artificial Intelligence Transformation
DESCRIPTION:Artificial Intelligence is no longer a distant frontier – it is a present-day force transforming industries\, reshaping workflows\, and redefining the relationship between humans and machines. This talk explores the ongoing journey of AI adoption\, focusing on how organizations can leverage AI not just as a tool\, but as a strategic capability. We’ll trace the shift from reactive systems to generative and agent-based AI\, and examine how these technologies are already embedded in daily life – from content creation to decision automation.\n\nReal transformation\, however\, requires more than new technology – it calls for a cultural shift. We’ll highlight how successful AI integration depends on three pillars: people\, process\, and technology. This means building AI literacy across roles\, empowering teams with effective tools\, and establishing strong governance frameworks. We’ll also show how “rapid wins” can create momentum\, challenge misconceptions\, and cultivate internal champions who drive sustainable change. Just as importantly\, we’ll explore how AI amplifies rather than replaces human strengths\, opening the door to new forms of value and innovation at scale.\n\nParticipants will gain practical insights into leading with an AI-first mindset\, navigating the challenges of change management\, and developing strategies that are both scalable and sustainable. This session will be peppered with real examples from various industries and use cases.\n---\nAbout the speaker: Barak Turovsky brings over 30 years of experience leading cross-functional teams to build AI (Generative AI/LLMs)\, Cloud\, and Enterprise products. He has deep expertise in leveraging customer and market insights to apply AI as a disruptive competitive advantage. Barak advises Boards\, executive teams\, and leading VC firms across industries\, helping drive large-scale organizational transformation for the AI era.\n\nBarak currently serves as Chief AI Officer at General Motors and Operating Advisor at Bessemer Venture Partners. Previously\, he was VP of AI at Cisco and spent a decade at Google as Head of Product for the Languages AI group within Google AI\, where he led the application of cutting-edge AI/ML across Google’s products. He also served as Chief Product and Technology Officer at Trax\, a leader in Computer Vision AI for retail and commerce.\n\nBarak holds an MBA from the University of California\, Berkeley\, and an LL.B. from Tel Aviv University. He teaches AI Applications at the Stanford Graduate School of Business Executive Education program.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Tools and Technology Seminar by Michelle Kim
DESCRIPTION:Abstract\n\nUnderstanding the genetic basis of complex traits in admixed populations is challenging due to diverse genetic backgrounds\, particularly for highly prevalent diseases. Misinterpreting admixture’s impact can have significant consequences for biomedical research. This study employs advanced computational biology to investigate how admixture shapes the genetic architecture of complex traits and influences GWAS outcomes. Using the forward-in-time population genetic simulator SLiM\, we model trait evolution under admixture by varying the relationship between causal variant effect sizes and selection coefficients while accounting for population size changes and migration across five admixture scenarios. \n\nOur findings reveal that GWAS power is influenced by genetic architecture and population demographic history. Traits with weak correlations between effect size and fitness (e.g.\, anthropometric traits) show higher GWAS power compared to traits with stronger correlations (e.g.\, genetic diseases). Populations with recent bottlenecks exhibit higher GWAS power\, highlighting the role of rare variants. Surprisingly\, fine- mapping ability remains consistent across traits. Empirical validation using data from diverse populations\, including the All of Us database\, supports our simulation predictions. For anthropometric traits like height\, common variants exhibit moderate effects\, while for traits like malignant neoplasms\, rare variants show larger effects and common variants minimal effects. \n\nBy integrating population and complex trait genetics\, this study provides insights into how population history shapes genetic architecture and heritability. Our findings improve understanding of genetic studies in diverse populations\, enabling more accurate biomedical applications and personalized medicine strategies. \n\nAbout The Tools & Technology Seminar Series\n\nThe DCMB Tools and Technology Seminar Series is held in Palmer Commons\, Room 2036\, each Thursday at 12pm EST. Each seminar highlights a computational tool\, technology\, or methodology that is under development or in current use and is of special interest to DCMB and University researchers. Presenters are U-M researchers and students.\n\nThese seminars are live-streamed and recorded and made available for future viewing via the DCMB YouTube Channel.

SUMMARY:Presentation:Museums at Two presentation
DESCRIPTION:Presentation by Alexandria Rayburn (Museum Studies Program alumni\; PhD\, Information)\n\nMuseum collections are many things\, but primarily they function as repositories of information\, where data-intensive work has been conducted for decades. Like other knowledge infrastructures\, the information in museum collections is built on installed bases and require highly skilled technicians to maintain these long-lasting digital systems. However\, in representations of this computing work\, women's voices and perspectives are under-appreciated\, even though they have significant labor contributions in this area. \n\nMy dissertation examines the experiences of women working in computing roles within museum collections and seeks to understand their unique approaches to data management. Drawing from this research\, this talk will explore some of the early gendered data practices at both the Smithsonian Institution and the Metropolitan Museum of Art— two highly regarded institutions whose leadership in early museum computing has had lasting implications on museum best practices\, and the value given to computing tasks like data entry.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Quantifying the Real-World Impacts of Vehicle Electrification :  From Passenger Cars to Transit Buses
DESCRIPTION:Electrification is transforming road transport\, yet its impacts and benefits vary widely across vehicle types\, use cases\, and regional conditions. This talk will provide an overview of our ongoing research quantifying the environmental and operational implications of vehicle electrification across different segments. We examine how electric passenger cars\, delivery vans\, and transit buses differ in their energy use\, emissions\, and cost trajectories using a combination of data-driven modeling\, optimization\, and system analysis. Example studies I will introduce in this talk include regional life cycle emissions assessment for passenger cars\, real-world energy consumption prediction for delivery fleets\, and transition planning for clean bus networks using a multi-stage stochastic optimization model . Together\, these studies demonstrate how analytical and data-driven methods can help us investigate vehicle performance\, fleet operations\, and system-level emissions outcomes\, providing actionable insights.\n---\nAbout the speaker: Dr. Tuğçe Yüksel is an Assistant Professor in Faculty of Engineering and Natural Sciences at Sabancı University\, Istanbul\, Turkey.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:MPSDS / JPSM Seminar Series: Achieving Fairness in AI with Synthetic Data
DESCRIPTION:MPSDS / JPSM Seminar Series\nMPSDS M3 Series: Mastery\, Methodology\, Meetups\n\nIn person\, room 1070\, Institute for Social Research and via Zoom. \nThe Zoom call be be locked 10 minutes after the start of the presentation. \nPlease note that many of the links have changed.\n\nAchieving Fairness in AI with Synthetic Data\nArtificial intelligence and machine learning increasingly inform decisions in hiring\, lending\, healthcare\, and justice. Yet real-world datasets often encode historical bias\, and models trained on them can reproduce or amplify inequities. Pre-processing via fair synthetic data is a promising: if we can generate data that mitigates bias at the source while preserving signal\, downstream models can be both fair and useful. This talk introduces FDA (Fair synthetic data via Data Augmentation)\, a statistically principled framework that makes the fairness–faithfulness trade-off explicit and controllable. FDA jointly models a fair submodel and a faithful submodel\, coupled by a single parameter $\alpha \in [0\,1]$ that quantifies the fraction of bias removed. We prove clear operating points: $\alpha=0$ yields maximal fairness (with larger deviation from the original distribution)\, $\alpha=1$ recovers the original data in probability (hence in distribution)\, and intermediate $\alpha$ values guarantee calibrated compromises with interpretable bounds. Practically\, FDA samples directly from simple predictive distributions\, avoiding heavy black-box training. We further provide theory connecting FDA’s $\alpha$ to fairness of downstream models. Together\, these results deliver a transparent\, efficient\, and deployable path to generating fair synthetic data without sacrificing essential statistical structure.\n\nDr. Bei Jiang is an Associate Professor in the Department of Mathematical and Statistical Sciences at the University of Alberta\, a Fellow of the Alberta Machine Intelligence Institute (Amii)\, and a Canada CIFAR AI Chair.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Tools and Technology Seminar by Doug Craig
DESCRIPTION:Abstract\n\nWhat happens when you bring a large language model to the front lines of care? This talk explores our work building a voice-driven\, edge-deployed LLM system for use in the emergency department. With no internet connection\, low-latency inference\, and a fully local privacy-preserving design\, our system runs entirely offline. It adapts dynamically to both the patient and the physician's specialty\, enabling tailored language understanding in fast-moving clinical contexts. We'll unpack key design choices\, challenges of real-time interaction\, and what it takes to make language models clinically useful when seconds matter.\n\nAbout The Tools & Technology Seminar Series\n\nThe DCMB Tools and Technology Seminar Series is held in Palmer Commons\, Room 2036\, each Thursday at 12pm EST.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:SRC Seminar Series Presents: The Way We News Now: How information abundance\, news negativity\, and media distrust are changing the way Americans engage with journalism
DESCRIPTION:Abstract:\nAs Americans increasingly turn to social media for news\, they face political information environments that are overwhelmingly crowded\, emotional\, and lack epistemic hierarchies of informational sources. This has wide reaching consequences for politics when it comes to issues like misinformation and polarization\, but it is also changing public perceptions of what news media are and challenging traditional understanding of the role of news media in democracies. Using panel survey data from 2020 and 2024\, we examine two seemingly contradictory phenomenon: how information abundance can lead to news avoidance and how strong emotional reactions to politics can lead to disengagement. Together\, these studies highlight how social media may be shaping both how Americans define news and how they engage with it in the contemporary political information environment.  \n\nBio:\nAriel Hasell is an Associate Professor of Communication and Media at the University of Michigan. Broadly\, her research examines how the contemporary media environment influences exposure to information about science and politics\, the effects of that exposure on knowledge and beliefs\, as well as public engagement with science and politics in society.\n\nMeeting ID:	929 6502 5837\nPasscode:	770619

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Exploring Digital Privacy from a Child’s Perspective
DESCRIPTION:Join us for this Privacy@Michigan Event.\n\nConversations about children’s digital privacy are frequent\, and with good reason: ad revenue to tech companies from child viewers topped 11 billion dollars in 2023. These conversations include policymakers\, educators\, researchers\, and parents\, but children themselves are rarely included. The purpose of this talk will therefore be to explore what we know about children’s own perspectives on their digital privacy\, particularly in the age of artificial intelligence. We’ll cover what they notice\, care about\, and understand as it relates to online privacy and data security\, and what researchers can explore next to continue child-centered conversations about how best to keep children safe online.\n\nDr. Lauren N. Girouard is a National Science Foundation postdoctoral research scholar at the University of Michigan and Harvard University\, where she works with Drs. Susan Gelman\, Ying Xu\, and Jenny Radesky on projects examining children’s beliefs about AI chatbots and how those beliefs translate into digital literacy in home and classroom environments. She graduated with her PhD in Experimental Psychology from the University of Louisville in May 2024. Her work broadly examines how 4- to 17-year-old children think about\, trust\, and learn from emerging technologies and AI. \n\nAdd this event to your Google calendar.\nhttps://calendar.google.com/calendar/u/0/r/eventedit/copy/MnRpdnA0Z3JpYzRhMWM2Y241NXMwNmdzYzYgdW1pY2guZWR1X2ZkczI0Z2V2cGE0MnY5NTc2bG5wZTJjbWxrQGc

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:AI as Self-Discovery: How Large Language Models Reveal the Essence of the Human Mind\, and Why It Matters
DESCRIPTION:Most discussions of artificial intelligence center on its instrumental role—how it will transform industries and economies. But it may do something even more radical: reveal who we are. As artificial minds become more capable\, they will expose the deep principles underlying human thought—how reasoning\, agency\, and creativity actually work. AI thus offers not just a technological revolution but a humanistic one. This new self-understanding\, I argue\, will force us to rethink core ideas about mind\, agency\, and the basis of praise and blame.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Human Genetics Research Seminar Series
DESCRIPTION:Monday\, March 9\, 2026\n11:00am - 12:00pm\n1020 Kahn Auditorium\, BSRB\n\nDanesh Moazed\, PhD\nProfessor and HHMI Investigator in the Department of Cell Biology at Harvard Medical School\n“Seminar Title TBD”\n\nHosted By: Sue Hammoud\, PhD\, Department of Human Genetics\n\n__\n\nDanesh Moazed\, Ph.D.\, is a Professor and HHMI Investigator in the Department of Cell Biology at Harvard Medical School.  He is a member of the Harvard Biophysics Program and the Harvard Initiative for RNA Medicine (HIRM). He received his undergraduate and Ph.D. degrees from the University of California in Santa Cruz and performed postdoctoral studies at the University of California in San Francisco.\n\nThe Moazed lab studies how genes are silenced and how silencing is epigenetically inherited across generations.  The lab’s interests revolve around diverse pathways of heterochromatin-mediated gene silencing in yeast and mammalian cells.  Work in budding yeast focuses on the structure and function of a diverged and relatively simple form of heterochromatin\, which requires only three Silent information regulator (“Sir”) proteins that form a histone deacetylase and chromatin-binding complex.  Work in fission yeast focuses on a conserved example of heterochromatin that requires the nuclear RNA interference (RNAi) machinery\, other RNA processing pathways\, Heterochromatin protein 1 (HP1) homologs\, and histone-modifying enzymes.  In mammalian cells\, the work is focused on HP1-mediated and other heterochromatin formation pathways.  The lab uses approaches ranging from genetics and genomics\, biochemical purification and reconstitution\, and structural biology for their studies.  Ultimately\, the lab seeks to understand the conserved fundamental principles that govern the assembly\, function\, and epigenetic propagation of heterochromatin.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Keeping Children Safe on the Road: Emerging Evidence from Pregnancy to Adolescence
DESCRIPTION:This presentation brings together two applied behavioural studies that sit at different points in the life course but share a common challenge: safety-critical behaviours often change when people move outside familiar contexts. The presentation will begin with pregnancy and seatbelt use - an area where compliance is high\, yet 'correct' use is far from assured\, and then move to adolescence\, focusing on independent mobility and safety in the context of rideshare use.

Why?  Because our aspiration is to not only discover new knowledge but also new principles.  Accomplishing this higher goal requires intellectual curiosity\, adventurousness\, and nimbleness (and a sense of humor!).  The lab is best known for its work on regulation of chromatin\, RNA-based regulation\, and host-fungal pathogen interactions (see our publications here).  Depending on the question\, the lab exploits different model systems\, including the opportunistic pathogenic yeast Cryptococcus neoformans\, which the lab has developed as both a model organism and a model pathogen\, as well as mice and haploid human cells.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Human Genetics Research Seminar Series
DESCRIPTION:Monday\, April 13\, 2026\n11:00am - 12:00pm\n1020 Kahn Auditorium\, BSRB\n\nJacy Wagnon\, PhD\nAssistant Professor\nDepartment of Neuroscience\nThe Ohio State University College of Medicine\n“Seminar Title TBD”\n\nHosted By: Miriam Meisler\, PhD\, Department of Human Genetics\n___\nDevelopmental and epileptic encephalopathies (DEE) are a genetically heterogeneous group of neurological disorders characterized by early-onset seizures along with cognitive\, motor\, and behavioral impairments. The Wagnon laboratory is interested in understanding genetic and molecular mechanisms underlying DEE and identifying new treatment strategies for these severe disorders. Our current studies focus on DEE caused by variants in the neuronal voltage-gated sodium channel gene SCN8A. We are developing mouse models of SCN8A encephalopathy to study pathogenesis of seizures and related comorbidities. A second focus of the lab is to investigate the role of regulation of gene expression in seizure pathology. Changes in mRNA and microRNA levels represent a general transcriptional response to seizures that may implicate new therapeutic targets.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Human Genetics Research Seminar Series
DESCRIPTION:Monday\, April 20\, 2026\n11:00am - 12:00pm\n1020 Kahn Auditorium\, BSRB\n\nAaron Ragsdale\, PhD\nAssistant Professor\nIntegrative Biology\nUniversity of Wisconsin-Madison\n“Seminar Title TBD”\n\nHosted By: Jeffrey Kidd\, PhD\, Department of Human Genetics\n___\nOur research aims to understand how evolutionary forces are expected to shape genetic diversity within populations\, and then uses this understanding to learn about demographic and selective histories and processes from genome sequencing data. One focus of our research is on developing population genetic theory that lets us predict patterns of diversity and genetic structure under varying models of demography and selection. Another focus is on turning that theory into computational tools to compare model predictions to observations from natural populations. Finally\, we have a strong interest in inferring (mostly) human evolutionary history from genetic data\, including both ancient history and population structure as well as more recent migrations\, movements\, and dynamics.
