SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:\"Against Risk-Aversion”- E-WIP/MMP Talk
DESCRIPTION:Title: \"Against Risk-Aversion”\nAbstract: It is widely thought that some degree of risk-aversion is rationally and ethically permissible. For example\, in a choice between saving one person for sure and taking a ¼ chance of saving five people... many believe that we can be permitted to favor the guaranteed rescue over the risky gamble—even though the gamble saves more expected lives. If you attend this talk\, you'll hear my best efforts to argue against this consensus. Specifically\, it will be argued that non-maximizing risk-aversion conflicts with a conjunction of two attractive principles. The first principle asserts that\, if you're comparing two options\, and one of them gives a particular person a greater chance of rescue and affects nothing else\, then you are required to favor that option. The second principle asserts that if you are required to choose X when the available options are X\, Y\, and some other alternatives... then you must still be required to choose X when the available options are only X and Y. Finally\, it will be discussed how this argument differs from existing arguments against risk-aversion\, which traditionally appeal to the fact that the risk-averse agent is likely to lose out in the long run. The argument we'll explore does not rely upon this observation and can be presented in the context of a single decision.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:RNA Innovation Seminar: \"Unexpected determinants of neuronal identity and properties: the curious cases of PTBP1\, PTBP2\, and neuronal splicing\"
DESCRIPTION:Virtual Seminar via Zoom: https://umich.zoom.us/webinar/register/WN_dltbxWdHQ5KrC3rTl4hqLQ\n\nTalk title: “Unexpected determinants of neuronal identity and properties: the curious cases of PTBP1\, PTBP2\, and neuronal splicing\"\n\nAbstract: Alternative splicing is the major contributor to transcriptome diversity\, but splicing is noisy and to what extend alternative splicing regulation is indispensable for biolgical processes has been controversial. Our studies have revealed the regulation and function of neural-specific splicing in shaping neuronal identity and estalishing  neurons’ two unique attributes: 1. Axonogenesis (Only neurons but no other cell types have one and single axon)\; 2. Neuronal longevity (Neurons are the most long-lived cell types). We show that obtaining these neuronal features is coordinated by RNA binding proteins PTBP1 and PTBP2\, while PTBP1 was suggested by others to be a reprogramming factor of neuronal fate. I will discuss the regulatory mechanism of neural specific splicing underlying neurogensis and maturation.\n\nReferences:\nZhang M\, Ergin V\, Lin L\, Stork C\, Chen L\, Zheng S.

DESCRIPTION:More than strict representations of the world we inhabit\, maps are social constructions that embody the interests of their creators. Map ≠ Territory deconstructs maps that have been used to subjugate\, appropriate\, and oppress\, as well as the maps that counter that power through emancipation and advocacy. The exhibit critically engages with materials that span from the colonial era to modern-day Detroit.\n\nThe exhibit is available in the Clark Library (second floor Hatcher) during Hatcher Library hours.
