SUMMARY:Exhibition:Banner Moments: The National Anthem in American Life
DESCRIPTION:The new Ford Presidential Library lobby exhibit\, curated by University of Michigan musicologist Mark Clague\, illustrates through interpretive panels\, historical documents and photographs\, the cultural 200-year history of “The Star-Spangled Banner” (1814–2014). The tale that emerges demonstrates the power of music and poetry to spark the social imagination and thus create a sense of shared community.\n\nInspired by the successful defense of Baltimore\, Maryland from British attack in September 1814\, lawyer and amateur poet Francis Scott Key penned his now famous lyric. Rather than extraordinary\, Key’s creative impulse was typical of early America’s broadside ballad tradition in which new words were written to fit well known tunes. The result\, however\, was far from everyday—Key could not have predicted that his song would survive the moment\, yet become his nation’s singular anthem.\n\nFollow the “The Star-Spangled Banner” from the moments leading up to September 14\, 1814 through the present day and explore the social history of our national song.\nMarch 2017 to September 2017 \n\nMonday - Friday. 8:45 am - 4:45 pm\nClosed all Federal holidays.

SUMMARY:Other:Chemistry-Biology Interface Symposium
DESCRIPTION:G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) comprise nature's largest  family of signaling receptors and regulate essentially every physiological process in animals.  For many years GPCRs were thought to mediate ligand-dependent signaling only from the plasma membrane. I will discuss emerging evidence that receptors signal also from internal membranes and what we presently known about the functional significance of this 'inner life'.\nMark Von Zastrow (University of California\, San Francisco)

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Cosmogonic Tattoos
DESCRIPTION:In celebration of the University’s Bicentennial in 2017\, artist and professor Jim Cogswell has been invited by the Kelsey Museum of Archaeology and the University of Michigan Museum of Art to create a set of public window installations in response to the objects in their collections.  Titled Cosmogonic Tattoos\, his project will use adhesive vinyl images applied in saturated colors to windows in the two buildings\, highlighting the role of these museums in the life of our campus community. Through close examination of objects separated from us by deep chronological and cultural divides\, imaginatively transformed within our campus context\, this project celebrates the power of architecture\, ornament\, and material objects to shape knowledge\, historical memory\, and cultural identity. \n\nLook for displays in the UMMA from April 22-Dec. 3\, the exterior of the Kelsey Museum from June 2-Dec. 17\, and in the interior special exhibition space of the Kelsey Museum from June 2-Sept. 10.\n\nFor information on-the-go about this event and all other Bicentennial happenings\, download our free mobile app: http://guidebook.com/g/umich200.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Drug Discovery Seminar - \"Chemotherapy for the 21st Century: Non-ototoxic Designer Aminoglycosides\"
DESCRIPTION:Ototoxicity is thought to be inherent to aminoglycosides\, compromising the clinical use of these important antibacterials. While we have shown clinically successful pharmacological mitigation of aminoglycoside-induced hearing loss (New Engl. J. Med. 354:1856-1857\, 2006)\, chemotherapy of the future would benefit from aminoglycosides effective against multi-drug resistant bacteria but with no or little ototoxic potential. \n\nWe have entered collaborations with the laboratories of Dr. Erik Böttger (Zürich) and Dr. Timor Baasov (Haifa) in order to develop non-ototoxic designer aminoglycosides as antibacterials and as stop-codon suppressors. Potential ototoxicity is determined during the design phase of new drugs by a screen with explants from the inner ear of CBA mice and in guinea pigs in vivo. Our mechanistic concept postulates a key role for the mitochondrial ribosome in aminoglycoside ototoxicity (Hear. Res. 303:12-19\, 2013). We have earlier reported (PNAS 109:10984-10989\, 2012) that apramycin\, a structurally unique aminoglycoside in veterinary oral use for treatment of intestinal infections\, shows low activity towards eukaryotic ribosomes\, including hybrid ribosomes carrying the aminoglycoside-susceptibility A1555G allele. This finding led to the proof-of-concept that antibacterial activity can be dissected from aminoglycoside ototoxicity\, and we have now developed aminoglycoside compounds with low ototoxic potential. New lead compounds promise a safety margin (antibacterial efficacy vs. ototoxicity) more than an order of magnitude better than gentamicin.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Exhibition-on-View\, \"Persistent Pasts: The Bicentennial Campus as Archive\"
DESCRIPTION:Combining historical research and analysis from the students in Sarah Rovang’s “The Curated Campus” graduate seminar and the design output of Steven Mankouche’s “What If” Options Studio\, Persistent Pasts reflects on the University of Michigan’s campus as a repository of memory. As UM celebrates its Bicentennial year\, this exhibition asks how past traditions\, tensions\, and technologies have left material or cultural traces on campus space today. By laying bare rarely examined aspects of the historical university alongside radical designs for an unrealized present\, Persistent Pasts asks us to question entrenched conceptions of what UM should and could be\, architecturally and institutionally. This exhibition is supported in part by a Bicentennial Activity Grant\, co-authored by Claire Zimmerman and Sarah Rovang. \n\nThis exhibition will be on view in the Taubman College Gallery through May 19. The college gallery is open Monday - Friday\, 9am - 5pm. \n\nThere will be an presentation and panel on Friday\, April 7 at 6:00pm in the Art & Architecture Auditorium\, followed by a reception in the college gallery.
