SUMMARY:Exhibition:Portraits of Feminism in Japan
DESCRIPTION:What is feminism in Japan? Rather than imagining it as a singular\, coherent object\, this exhibit seeks to introduce the diversity\, difference\, and complexity inherent in feminist activism in Japan. As in other cultural contexts\, “feminism” in Japan can invoke sharply different associations\, from office workers trying to reshape taken-for-granted structures of power and authority\, to mothers advocating for safer school lunches after the 2011 Fukushima nuclear disasters\, and queer couples seeking legal recognition for the families they have created. Mainstream feminist activism in Japan has focused on advocating for change in families\, workplaces\, schools\, political institutions\, and laws\, among many other contexts. Many ­– but certainly not all – feminist activists in Japan are also responding to the lasting legacies of Japanese colonial projects\, working toward recognition\, repair\, and meaningful reparations for racial and gender-based violence that continue to impact communities disproportionately.\n\nThis exhibit features original portraits of feminists who have shaped the landscape of women's and gender rights in Japan and beyond. Created by nine contemporary artists in Japan and the United States\, the portraits and accompanying texts challenge simplistic understandings of \"feminism\" while also drawing attention to a diversity of experiences\, needs\, and activism within Japan. This exhibit also spotlights the history of Japanese studies at the University of Michigan in conjunction with the Center for Japanese Studies' 75th anniversary celebration. \n\n“Portraits of Feminism in Japan” is open for viewing M-F 9am-4pm or by appointment. University of Michigan instructors can email LaneHallExhibits@umich.edu to request a group tour or schedule a class visit.\n\nFeatured artists:\nElaine Cromie\, JenClare B. Gawaran\, Takatoshi Hayashi\, ivokuma (いぼくま)\, Nami Kaneko (金子奈美)\, Kang Jungsook\, Lisa Taka Miyagi\, Nancy Nishihira (西平・ナンシー)\, and Shigeki Shibata (柴田滋紀)\n\nCuration team: \nAllison Alexy\,  Bradly Hammond\, Grace Mahoney\, and Alexandria Molinari

SUMMARY:Exhibition:UN/EARTH
DESCRIPTION:Featuring work by Gina Gibson\, UN/EARTH explores science and art from a mile underground. Located in the former Homestake gold mine in Lead\, South Dakota\, the Sanford Underground Research Facility (SURF) houses experiments that give us a better understanding of the universe. The location—deep underground—provides a near-perfect environment for experiments that need to escape the constant bombardment of cosmic radiation\, which can interfere with the detection of rare physics events. Built in collaboration with the University of Michigan\, the LUX-Zeplin is the world’s most sensitive dark matter experiment. SURF also hosts experiments in biology\, geology and engineering.\n\nGina Gibson is an internationally exhibiting artist and professor of Graphic Design at Black Hills State University. In 2019\, Gibson became the first artist in residence at the Sanford Underground Research Facility. Gibson's work celebrates the search deep below the surface for beauty in the old and new\, the light and dark\, and the known and unknown.\n\nUN/EARTH was developed in collaboration with the U-M Department of Physics\, the Sanford Underground Research Facility and Black Hills State University.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Seminar: Defects Related Energy Conversion and Stability of Metal Halide Perovskite Solar Cells
DESCRIPTION:Organized by Xiwen Gong\, Assistant Professor of Chemical Engineering. This seminar is open to all\, ChE faculty and graduate students are especially encouraged to attend.\n\nAbstract: \nElectronic defects within the band gap of semiconductor materials play critical roles in determining the efficiency and stability of their photovoltaic devices. Eliminating deleterious defects in semiconductors or passivating them during the fabrication process of solar cells has become one of the most fundamental tasks for the solar cell society. This scenario is also prevailing in the metal halide perovskite solar cell community which has witnessed a rapid increase of the power conversion efficiency (PCE) of perovskite solar cells from 3.8% to close to 26% with overwhelming reported progress on defect passivation strategies which also enhance the stability of perovskite solar cells. Any further improvement of the efficiency or stability of perovskite solar cells toward their Shockley-Queisser limitations have to rely on deeper understandings on the nature of defects in perovskite to squeeze out all non-radiative charge recombination paths by eliminating or passivating them.\n\n\nDefects in perovskites have already been intensively studied in recent years\, but there is still no consensus on the defect chemical nature\, density\, spatial distributions\, and their evolution during degradation. In this talk\, I will first present our demonstration that using the drive-level capacitance profiling (DLCP) technique to profile both the spatial and energetic distributions of charge traps in perovskite solar cells. Then I will report our progress in combining the DLCP technique with electrical poling to determine the charge states and eventually the chemical nature of mobile defects in perovskites. This study revealed some astonishing discoveries on the defects in perovskites of different compositions and mechanism of solar cell degradation under reverse bias and under illumination. If time allows\, I will also present our progress in the development of efficient perovskite minimodules\, including both single junctions\, bifacial and tandem ones.\n\nBio:\nJinsong Huang is currently Louis D. Rubin\, Jr. Distinguished Professor at University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill. He received his PhD degree in Material Science and Engineering from the University of California-Los Angeles in 2007.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:“When Duty Calls\, Hang Up: The Ethics of Quitting for Clinicians”
DESCRIPTION:Abstract: The “Great Resignation” following the SARS-CoV-2 pandemic has not spared the health sector. Resultant staffing shortages have compromised patient safety. The pandemic simultaneously reinvigorated discussions of the clinician’s “duty to care”\, a unique ethical and legal responsibility that requires clinicians to place the needs of patients above their own interests. If a strong duty to care exists\, then quitting cannot be ethical\; however\, this also renders clinicians infinitely exploitable by institutions and\, to a lesser degree\, by patients. This project evaluated the history and ethical underpinnings of the duty to care in the literature\, finding general agreement about the existence of a duty to care\, but debate over its ethical justification and the limits of the risks a clinician must incur in pursuit of fulfilling the duty. Subsequently\, thematic analysis of semi-structured interviews with clinicians who quit their jobs during the pandemic demonstrated that clinicians balance multiple competing duties with the duty to care\, including duties to the self\, family\, colleagues\, and health trainees. Being unable to effectively fulfill a perceived duty to patients because of institutional or other constraints also contributed to clinicians’ decision to quit. Additionally\, participants expected basic safety measures and fair compensation in return for their service. These findings indicate that clinicians accept a general duty to care\, but do not believe that it universally trumps other moral duties. Additionally\, reported institutional constraints on good patient care and clinicians’ expectations of basic protections suggest that a corresponding institutional duty to care exists. Future scholarship should articulate the upper and lower bounds of the duty to care\, expand the definition of “risk” to clinicians to encompass psychological well-being and burnout and evaluate how institutions and the public can reasonably provide clinicians with the tools necessary to effectively serve patients.

SUMMARY:Tours:Building on a Century of Collecting at the Clements Library
DESCRIPTION:As we celebrate the library’s centennial\, this exhibit is an attempt to answer a question asked often by visitors\, how do you decide what to acquire to add to your collections.\n\nIt builds on the landmark publication of the library’s 75th anniversary\, One Hundred and One Treasures From the Collections of the William L. Clements Library\, edited by former library director John Dann. This exhibit—and its expanded online version—pairs items from 101 Treasures with related items that have for the most part been acquired since 1998. Those that were acquired earlier are items about which we’ve learned new things in the intervening 25 years.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:LSI Seminar Series: Alan Brown\, Ph.D.\, Harvard Medical School
DESCRIPTION:Motile cilia (or flagella\, as they are sometimes known) are responsible for the movement of many unicellular organisms including algae and protozoan parasites\, and in the human body\, for the swimming of sperm cells and the movement of liquids\, such as mucus and cerebrospinal fluid. Defective ciliary motility can lead to male infertility and a rare genetic disorder called primary ciliary dyskinesia (PCD)\, where impaired mucociliary clearance leads to progressive respiratory failure. Ciliary motility is generated by the axoneme\, a molecular machine so large it occupies almost the entire volume of each cilium. Each axoneme consists of geometrically complex arrangement of microtubules\, ATP-powered dynein motors\, and their mechanoregulatory complexes. The size and complexity of the axoneme has long impeded an atomic model\, hindering efforts to understand how all the components are integrated together to orchestrate the beating of a cilium. Here I will discuss how we have utilized recent advances in cryo-electron microscopy (cryo-EM) and artificial intelligence (AI)-enabled structure prediction (AlphaFold2) to determine the 96-nm modular repeats of axonemes from Chlamydomonas reinhardtii flagella and human respiratory cilia. Our atomic models provide insights into the conservation and specialization of axonemes\, the interconnectivity between dyneins and their regulators\, and the mechanisms that maintain axonemal periodicity and regulate motility. Cryo-EM structures of respiratory doublet microtubules from organoids derived from individuals with PCD reveal how the loss of individual docking factors can selectively eliminate periodically repeating structures and provide a roadmap for the future of personalized structural biology.\n\nAbout the Speaker:\nAlan Brown\, Ph.D.\nAssociate Professor\nDepartment of Biological Chemistry & Molecular Pharmacology\nHarvard Medical School\, Boston\n\nDr. Alan Brown joined Harvard Medical School in fall 2017. Dr. Brown received his Ph.D. degree from the University of Cambridge in 2010 where he studied X-ray crystallography under Dr. Tom L. Blundell. He then completed a short postdoc with Dr. Matthew K. Higgins (now Professor of Molecular Parasitology at the University of Oxford) while his laboratory was located at the University of Cambridge. In 2012\, he joined Dr. Venki Ramakrishnan’s group at the Medical Research Council Laboratory of Molecular Biology (MRC-LMB) as a Career Development Fellow to study ribosome structure and function by cryo-EM. Dr. Brown was named a Pew Biomedical Scholar in 2019.
