More than four decades of theory and simulation studies offer a wealth of predictions for how the collective behavior of such an unusually symmetric plasma is expected to compare to that of conventional plasmas. To experimentally test some of these predictions\, the goal of the APEX (A Positron Electron eXperiment) Collaboration is to create and study confined\, strongly magnetized electron-positron pair plasmas in the laboratory. Our “road map” involves unifying and advancing state-of-the-art physics and engineering in several areas\, including: extended accumulation and high-capacity storage of large numbers of positrons\, originating from a world-class positron source\; two superconducting\, tabletop-sized\, toroidal confinement devices with complementary magnetic topologies (a levitated dipole and a stellarator)\, in which the positrons will be combined with electrons and their plasma properties studied\; and the development and verification of a number of essential enabling techniques (e.g.\, efficient transport of positrons across magnetic flux surfaces and subsequent trapping). This seminar will offer an overview of the collaboration’s recent progress and upcoming milestones en route to pair plasma studies.\n\nAbout the Speaker:\nEve V. Stenson is a scientist and group leader at the Max Planck Institute for Plasma Physics (IPP)\, Germany\, where she coordinates the international APEX collaboration. The most recent addition to the collaboration is the EPOS (Electrons and Positrons in an Optimized Stellarator) project\, her Helmholtz Young Investigator Group. Prior to getting into the business of “antimatter containment fields”\, she earned her Ph.D. from Caltech studying the dynamics of arched\, plasma-filled flux tubes generated with pulsed-power magnetized plasma guns. Other scientific interests over the years have included open-source cryo-genic temperature measurement systems\, positron-induced phosphor luminescence\, magnetoresistive semiconductors\, and blowing soap film bubbles in microgravity. She was recently honored with the Hans Werner Osthoff Plasma Physics Prize.\n\nThe seminar will be conducted in person and simulcast via Zoom: https://mipse.umich.edu/seminars_2223.php#winter2023 UID:103474-21807310@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/103474 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Engineering,Graduate Students,In Person,Lecture,Michigan Engineering,Physics,Plasma,Research,Science,seminar,Talk LOCATION:Chrysler Center - 133 CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20230427T123138 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20230412T153000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20230412T161500 SUMMARY:Careers / Jobs:Pathways Into Teaching-Marshall Teacher Residency DESCRIPTION: Thinking about a career in teaching?

The recent advances in imaging technologies are now providing us with direct visual access to the development of whole organisms in unprecedented detail. However\, it is clear that to make the best use of this complex data\, we need the help of computer algorithms that can mine it for biologically relevant information\, summarize and then visualize it for us. The first project I will present focuses on the mechanisms driving the development of diverse 3D bone morphologies in mice. There\, we developed algorithms to analyze micro-CT images to deconstruct the final morphology of each bone into the contributions made by remodeling of mineralized tissue vs. the cartilaginous growth plates. This allowed us to demonstrate the central role of the growth plate in 3D bone morphogenesis in normal and pathological development. The second project aims to understand how different cell activities contribute to large-scale morphogenetic movements. To this end\, we generated the first whole embryo single-cell atlas of morphogenetic activity underlying gastrulation in the fruit fly\, then used these maps to derive a statistical model associating cell shape changes and rearrangements to body axis elongation.\n\nhttps://umich-health.zoom.us/j/93929606089?pwd=SHh6R1FOQm8xMThRemdxTEFMWWpVdz09\n\nAreas of Interest:\n\nMy lab focuses on understanding how cells organize to form various tissue morphologies during normal and pathological development. We use two model systems to achieve this: the musculoskeletal system in mice and whole embryo development in fruit flies. Our approach centers on the development of cutting-edge bioimage informatics and data science algorithms to analyze the dynamics and the underlying patterns in developing tissues through 3D and 4D (3D+time) fluorescence images.

It provides a robust measure of complexity for computable structures – if A has degree of categoricity d\, then modulo d all its isomorphic copies have the same computational properties. Two of the main goals in this area are to obtain a characterization of the Turing degrees that are degrees of categoricity of computable structures and to see whether all degrees of categoricity are strong\, i.e.\, arise from the isomorphisms between two copies of a structure.\n\nIn this talk I will introduce the methods and main results in the area and discuss recent results of Csima and me. We obtained a characterization of the strong degrees of categoricity above 0'' as what we call the treeable degrees above 0''.

Ferroptosis\, a non-apoptotic programmed cell death driven by an iron-dependent membrane lipid peroxidation\, is an emerging target and mechanism for aging and age-associated neurodegenerative diseases. While membrane lipid peroxidation is one of the molecular hallmarks of ferroptosis\, the involvement of specific polyunsaturated fatty acids and their downstream metabolites as endogenous lipid mediators of ferroptosis remains understudied. Here\, we hypothesize that cytochrome P450 (CYP)-epoxide hydrolases metabolites of PUFAs are a new class of lipid mediators of ferroptosis. \r\nInvestigating the effects of specific PUFA and PUFA metabolites on ferroptosis are challenging for two main reasons. Firstly\, there is a plethora of endogenous biosynthetic and metabolic enzymatic pathways\, and these enzymes express differently across diverse tissues. Secondly\, the mechanism of ferroptosis is not well-defined or characterized. Therefore\, a system approach is likely needed. To overcome these challenges\, we employed Caenorhabditis elegans (C. elegans) as a novel simplified biological model. Using a well-established neurodegenerative assay and transgenic C. elegans with green-fluorescent protein-tagged (GFP) neurons\, we show that among all the tested PUFAs\, only dihomo-gamma-linolenic acid (DGLA) triggers significant ferroptosis-mediated neurodegeneration after one day of exposure. Interestingly\, only dopaminergic neurons and\, to a lesser extent\, glutaminergic neurons were affected in our studies. Using our state-of-the-art oxylipins analysis and comprehensive chemical probes\, we identified the dihydroxy- metabolites of DGLA are likely the lipid mediator responsible for DGLA-induced ferroptosis-mediated neurodegeneration. We were also able to show that epoxide hydrolases play a key role in ferroptosis and neurodegeneration. \r\nIn short\, our study identified a novel class of endogenous lipid mediators of ferroptosis. Our findings improve our understanding of how PUFA downstream metabolism modulates neurodegeneration. Additionally\, the developed C. elegans models and identified dihydroxy- metabolites of DGLA provide a strong foundation for us to further investigate the mechanism of ferroptosis-mediated neurodegeneration that would identify a novel mechanism for ferroptosis and novel therapeutic targets for preventative or disease-altering treatments for neurodegenerative diseases. At the end of this presentation\, we will also share the current drug discovery effort to target this metabolism for neurodegenerative diseases. \n \nKin Sing Stephen Lee (Michigan State University) UID:101181-21800914@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/101181 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Biosciences,Chemistry,Science LOCATION:Chemistry Dow Lab - 1640 CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20230427T123100 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20230412T160000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20230412T164500 SUMMARY:Careers / Jobs:USA - Campus - EY Upskilling Series: Building Your Personal Brand DESCRIPTION:Please join our EY Campus Recruiters for a discussion on how you can build a strong personal brand\, strengthen your network\, and manage your online presence.
