SUMMARY:Other:Dissertation Defense: Condensin and Chromatin Mediated X Chromosome Architecture in Caenorhabditis elegans
DESCRIPTION:Dosage compensation is an essential gene regulatory mechanism that balances X-linked gene expression and X to autosomal expression in organisms that utilize a chromosome-based method of sex determination. In the worm Caenorhabditis elegans dosage compensation is believed to involve two mechanisms. First\, upregulation of the X chromosomes occurs in males and hermaphrodites. The mechanism of X upregulation is not known but is believed to balance X-linked gene expression levels to autosomes in males but causes X hyperactivation in hermaphrodites. This necessitates the second mechanism mediated by the activity of the dosage compensation complex (DCC)\, which downregulates both hermaphrodite X chromosomes by two-fold. The DCC contains a condensin-like complex\, condensin IDC\, similar to mitotic condensin\, suggesting that it may compact the X chromosomes. The goal of my thesis is to address the long-standing hypothesis that DCC activity results in changes in X chromosome structure and explore the highly debated mechanism of X upregulation. In this research\, I have uncovered that MYS-1 mediated H4K16ac decondenses the male X chromosome and contributes to upregulation of gene expression on the chromosome. This novel work supports the X upregulation hypothesis. I have also showed that condensin IDC\, and the histone modifications regulated by the DCC\, mediate interphase X chromosome compaction\, providing the first evidence linking condensin-mediated chromosome compaction to chromosome-wide repression of gene expression. My work provided evidence that changes in higher order organization of the X chromosome plays a role both in X upregulation and condensin IDC mediated repression.

SUMMARY:Recreational / Games:First Ascent: Sleeping Bear Dunes and Mackinac Island
DESCRIPTION:First Ascent Trips are designed just for incoming UM freshmen!\n\nCome hike the Sleeping Bear Dunes National Lakeshore\, one of the most beautiful places Michigan has to offer! The park was established for its outstanding natural features\, including dunes\, beaches\, forests\, and ancient glacial phenomena on the shores of Lake Michigan. We'll spend the first night camping right inside the park before hitting the trail in the morning. We'll cover around 8 miles of trail and set up camp\, spending the evening exploring the dunes\, taking in the sights\, cooking a spectacular dinner\, and hanging out around a roaring fire. After hiking out to the vans\, we'll head to the solitude of Wilderness State Park on the shore of a Great Lake and spend the following day on the historic grounds of Mackinac Island. We'll explore the beautiful island by bike\, the preferred method of transportation on car-free Mackinac. This will truly be a trip to remember in places that beg to be returned to again and again.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Feelings through Fiction Therapy Group (dates & times flexible)
DESCRIPTION:The Summer 2016 group will include:\n\n1.5 hour sessions with snacks.\n\n8 weeks of sessions.\n\n9-13 year-old (girl and boy) participants.\n\nCost flexibility based on insurance benefits (self-pay is $40/session).\n\nScheduling flexibility since the day and time of the group sessions are determined by interest and the participant’s schedule.\n\nThroughout elementary\, middle\, and junior high school\, social interactions can become increasingly complicated and difficult to manage. Learning to navigate relationships with friends\, classmates\, and family can be even more challenging as girls and boys also begin to explore their identity. The Feelings through Fiction Summer 2016 Group uses a book club format to create a safe space for participants to discuss ideas and feelings common to kids their age. By the end of the eight week group\, participants should be better in tune with their feelings and how to manage them\, how to understand others and work through conflict\, and better able to deal with challenging social situations.\nRegistration is required. Call (734) 764-9466 or visit uccf.umich.edu to learn more

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Gifts of Art presents Abstraction: A Graphic Study
DESCRIPTION:Chicago-based artist Natasha Kohli uses abstract acrylic paintings to convey her messages of positivity and love by pouring that energy into each piece. As a self-taught artist\, Kohli is not bound to school taught rules but rather follows instinct and spontaneity. This also allows her to freely create her own processes. Moments of introspection and feelings of acceptance are what Kohli wishes to offer viewers of her work\, and these goals are inspired by her deep love of spirituality and Bikram yoga.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Gifts of Art presents Concrete Ephemera: Street Art Captured
DESCRIPTION:David Zinn has been drawing on sidewalks for well over a decade\, using chalk and charcoal to create anamorphic 3D creatures which\, when viewed at a precise angle\, appear to exist in the real world. They often incorporate parts of the landscape and found objects\, such as cracks in concrete or leaves on the ground. He is inspired by a desire to place cheerful art underfoot in unexpected places and to embrace the temporary nature of all things. For this exhibit\, photographs of his street art installations will be on display. Zinn is a lifelong Michigander with a degree in creative writing from the U-M Residential College\, and he worked for many years as a children’s radio host on WCBN and Michigan Radio. Zinn will also give an artist demonstration alongside a musical performance by Magdalen Fossum in the University Hospital Courtyard on Thurs\, July 21\, 2016 from 12:00-1:00 pm.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Gifts of Art presents Landscapes Imagined: Oil on Canvas
DESCRIPTION:Victoria Veedell creates atmospheric landscape paintings in oil on canvas\, capturing the fleeting moments of light in nature. The root of her work is an emotional reaction to the environment\, implying landscapes not necessarily seen but felt. Veedell lives and works in San Francisco\, and she is inspired by her global travels to places as far away as India and as near as Napa Valley\, California. Travel is an important component of her work as it allows her to observe and compare gradients of color\, light and atmosphere in different geographic locations.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Gifts of Art presents Portals: Fiber Art Quilts
DESCRIPTION:Creative Seasons is a small yet vibrant group of non-traditional quilters from Southeast Michigan that meets monthly. The group’s purpose is to share knowledge\, techniques and work collaboratively on projects and exhibits as decided by the group. The definition of a portal is a door\, means of entrance\, gateway\, approach or architectural composition surrounding an opening. The group chose to interpret this theme with a broad variety of art quilts incorporating hand-dyed and painted fabrics as well as a variety of surface embellishments.
