SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Weekly DCMB Seminar with Refreshments
DESCRIPTION:Abstract:\n\nMost disease associated genomic variants have relatively modest effects on target gene expression in reporter or CRISPR perturbation assays. In addition\, enhancer disruption in vivo often has surprisingly weak phenotypic consequences. I will present machine learning (ML) methods (gkm-SVM and DNN) which we use to learn the complex transcription factor combinations that control enhancer activity and cell fate. I will then use these methods to develop a quantitative model for enhancer activity which shows that while promoter knockdown has robust effects on target gene expression\, individual enhancer knockdown is often weaker and affects temporal transition dynamics\, but not the final steady state.  This model provides an explanation of the paradox of how enhancer variation can be strongly associated with disease risk while having individually weak effects\, by showing in detail how gene regulatory networks control developmentally important and disease relevant cell state transitions and cancer.\n\nhttps://umich-health.zoom.us/j/93929606089?pwd=SHh6R1FOQm8xMThRemdxTEFMWWpVdz09

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:CANCELED - CAS Lecture | Armeno-Turkish: The Space of Language in the Late Medieval and Early Modern Worlds
DESCRIPTION:We apologize that we have had to cancel this event. We will repost the event when we are able to reschedule it.\n\nArmenians consistently composed works in Turkish (with Armenian letters)\, from the thirteenth through the twentieth centuries. Most historians have had a tendency to shy away from using Armeno-Turkish as a means of getting at myriad aspects of both pre-Ottoman Anatolian and Ottoman pasts. In fact\, aside from a few unique examples\, Armeno-Turkish texts have almost uniquely been used by historians when considering aspects of Armenian history\, literature\, or identity\, rather than as a tool for looking at realities present inside an overarching Turkish language space\, or the Ottoman Empire. In reflecting upon the volume of texts composed in Armeno-Turkish from the late medieval through the modern periods\, one can’t help but understand that many Armenians—whether monolingual\, bilingual or multilingual—were engaged with oral and written Turkish linguistic and literary cultures. And that they participated in the shared space of the Turkish lyric throughout—and before and beyond—the Ottoman Empire.\n\nRachel Goshgarian is Associate Professor of History at Lafayette College. She is a social historian who is interested in the circulation of ideas\, patterns of social organization and the communication of cultural ideals. She works with primary sources composed in Armenian\, Arabic\, Persian\, Turkish and Armeno-Turkish\, and her academic work is also deeply informed by interrogations and interpretations of material culture. Her first monograph\, The City in Late Medieval Anatolia: Inter-faith Interactions and Urbanism in the Middle East\, is forthcoming with I.B. Tauris in 2022. Goshgarian has also co-edited Architecture and Landscape in Medieval Anatolia\, 1100-1500 with Patricia Blessing (Edinburgh: Edinburgh University Press\, 2017) and co-authored Kendi Kendine Ermenice (or\, Teach Yourself Armenian) with Şükru Ilıçak (Istanbul: Armenian Patriarchate\, 2006). Rachel Goshgarian is a member of the Middle East Studies Association\, the Ottoman and Turkish Studies Association\, and is the vice president of the Society for Armenian Studies. She serves as Reviews and Reconsiderations Editor of the Journal of the Society for Armenian Studies.\n\nIf there is anything we can do to make this event accessible to you\, please contact us at armenianstudies@umich.edu. Please be aware that advance notice is necessary as some accommodations may require more time for the university to arrange.

SUMMARY:Presentation:A Conversation with Nikki Giovanni
DESCRIPTION:Join us for a  “A Conversation with Nikki Giovanni” on Wednesday\, February 8th | 6:00 - 7:30 PM EST in the Rackham Auditorium. moderated by the Department of Afroamerican and African Studies faculty\, Dr. SaraEllen Strongman\, Michigan Medicine Special Programs Manager and DEI Practitioner\, Blaire Tinker\, M.Ed. and Kayla Tate\, Black Student Union Speaker. \n\nNikki Giovanni is a Grammy-nominated poet\, National Book Award finalist\, recipient of several NAACP Image Awards\, the Rosa Parks Women of Courage Award\, a Literary Excellence Award\, the Langston Hughes Medal and a University Distinguished Professor at Virginia Tech. Ms. Giovanni is one of the foremost authors of the Black Arts Movement and has authored 3 New York Times and Los Angeles Times Best Sellers. Her experiences are incredibly relevant and perfectly aligned with the theme of this year’s for the Black History Month.\n\nGiovanni last visited the University of Michigan\, Ann Arbor in January 1999 to speak at the annual MLK\, Jr. Day Symposium. While on campus\, she also spoke to a group of students in the Nikki Giovanni Lounge in Mosher-Jordan Hall. This lounge celebrates her activism and literary contributions which centers race\, gender\, sexuality and the African-American family.\n\nIf you have questions\, please contact Braini McKenzie\, blackhistorymonth@umich.edu

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:ELI Workshop: Writing in Academic Style
DESCRIPTION:Whether you are writing a research article\, class assignment\, conference abstract or dissertation\, the words\, grammatical structures\, and organizational patterns you use all signal whether your text sounds “academic.” We will look at features of academic style\, and how these differ across a range of writing that undergraduate and graduate students do. In this workshop we will work on how to make effective stylistic choices for the types of writing you are doing and the academic identity you wish to convey to your readers in various writing contexts. Bring a text you are currently working on for analysis. Please come prepared to participate actively in small group discussions.
