The Jerome Lectures are presented at both the American Academy in Rome and the University of Michigan. Scheduled for Fall 2022\, in the forty-ninth year of the lecture series\, Amy Richlin\, Distinguished Research Professor of Classics at UCLA will be delivering four lectures on the theme of \"Dirty Words: The Selective Survival of Latin Erotica.\"\n\nAmy Richlin works on Roman society and culture\, especially women’s history\, Roman comedy and satire\, and the history of sexuality. Her most recent book\, Slave Theater in the Roman Republic: Plautus and Popular Comedy\, won the Goodwin Award from the Society for Classical Studies. Her Jerome Lectures spring from her career-long fascination with the simultaneous radical difference and deep continuities between ancient and modern sex/gender systems.\n\nAll lectures will take place in a hybrid format at 4:00 PM. In person: on the 2nd Floor of the Michigan League. Virtually: live-streamed via LSA ITS \n\n\n- Monday\, October 31st - How Pederasty Got Lost\n\nLivestream: https://ummedia01.umnet.umich.edu/lsa/lsa103122.html\n\nSummary: after a brief history of how the history of ancient sexuality started to be written in the 1970s\, this lecture presents an overview of pederastic texts in classical Latin and the co-implication of Roman pederasty with slavery. This continues into “retrosexuality” as writers in the 100s CE produce poetry that is explicitly grounded in earlier poetry. Then three main questions: how did this discourse survive the transformation of Western Europe into Christendom? What does this discourse tell about the transformation of the ancient sex/gender system? Why is it important to us?\n\nFurther reading: Boswell\, John. 1980.

A super-rich aristocrat who lived in an enormous villa in southern Gaul\, Sidonius survived the Visigothic takeover and became bishop of Clermont. In his voluminous poems and letters he attests to his fear that traditional Latin literature will disappear\, producing an account in which pederastic love is visible as an erasure – although Sidonius does turn a queer eye on the Visigoth Theodoric.\n\nFurther reading: Kelly\, Gavin\, and Joop van Waarden\, eds. 2020.

But in the Middle Ages Jerome’s reading list meant different things to the monks that copied texts over and to those who set Church policy on sexual behavior. Now pederasty was a sin\, although the heaviest blame fell\, surprisingly\, on the youngest boys. Yet the 1100s saw the rise of several monkish poets who wrote pederastic poetry. After a late-medieval backlash\, the Italian Renaissance found teachers editing even the Carmina Priapea as a project with their students.\n\nFurther reading: Elliott\, Dyan. 2020.

An editor of the X-rated Greek pederastic poet Strato in 1764 claims that all students have access to Catullus\, Martial\, Petronius\, and the Priapea. Yet this aspect of education troubled the puritanical\, who not unreasonably asked why Christian schools should be teaching about sins and gods. A survey of schoolbooks and curricula shows that conflicting systems continued to coexist. Today we are more likely to teach Catullus and Petronius to undergraduates than the Victorians were\; should we teach them whole?\n\nFurther reading: Watson\, Foster. 1908.

Saini DESCRIPTION:The prevalence of chronic liver disease (CLD) is increasing in the Veterans Health Administration. Access to specialty care is important for patients with CLD\, and hence accurate risk stratification algorithms are needed for consult management.\n\nIndexes such as Child-Turcotte-Pugh (CTP) score from electronic medical records have been utilized but only performed well for patients with decompensated liver disease. Imaging biomarkers\, which reflect body composition and frailty\, have been shown to be strongly associated with mortality.\n\nIn this talk\, we will introduce how we analyze CT images and extract biomarkers automatically through modern deep-learning algorithms. We then utilize these imaging biomarkers together with clinical data to predict mortality.\n\n \nPeng Zhang\, Ph.D. is an Associate Research Scientist in the Department of Surgery and Director of Advanced Analytics at the Morphomic Analysis Group. Dr. Zhang received his undergraduate degree in Mathematics from Peking University in Beijing\, China\, and his doctoral degree in Biostatistics from Harvard University. His primary research interest is to design personalized treatment decision support and strategies through analytic morphomics\, which are anatomically indexed information extracted from Computed Tomography (CT) images. Dr. Zhang's research interests include an array of clinical outcomes\, such as injuries in motor vehicle crashes\, long/short-term surgical outcomes\, cancer occurence/recurrence (lung\, adrenal\, liver\, esophageal\, colon)\, and metabolic diseases (type-2 diabetes and non-alcoholic fatty liver disease).\n\nSameer Saini\, MD\, MS is a Professor in the Division of Gastroenterology at University of Michigan and Director of the VA Ann Arbor HSR&D Center for Clinical Management Research (CCMR). He also serves as Co-Director of the NIH T32 GI Epidemiology Training Program and Director of the Gastroenterology Early Career Faculty Mentoring Program at the University of Michigan. His research focuses on the appropriate use of resource-limited medical procedures\, such as colonoscopy and upper endoscopy\, the development of “next-generation” performance measures\, and the development and evaluation of complex interventions to reduce the use of low-value care. He uses a variety of methodological approaches in his work\, including simulation modeling\, mixed methods\, and implementation science. He has a long list of current and former post-doctoral mentees.\n\n\nThe seminar series “Providing Better Healthcare through Systems Engineering” is presented by the U-M Center for Healthcare Engineering and Patient Safety (CHEPS): Our mission is to improve the safety and quality of healthcare delivery through a multi-disciplinary\, systems-engineering approach.\n\nFor the Zoom link and password\, and to be added to the weekly e-mail for the series\, RSVP or contact genehkim@umich.edu UID:100769-21800334@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/100769 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:seminar,Industrial And Operations Engineering LOCATION:Industrial and Operations Engineering Building - 1680 CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20220828T225914 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20221031T170000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20221031T180000 SUMMARY:Social / Informal Gathering:Spanish Conversation Hour DESCRIPTION:Spanish Conversation Hour takes place every Monday and Tuesday at 5-6pm in the Michigan League Basement.

On average this research has found that individuals are overprecise\, leading this type of overconfidence to sometimes be labelled as the “most robust form of overconfidence”. With over 1000 participants\, we study different versions of confidence interval tasks\, with widths spanning from 10% to 90%. We show that the aggregate finding of overconfidence can be reversed by examining small instead of large intervals. In what we consider to be our most reliable interval task\, we find that the magnitude of underconfidence for small intervals is similar to the magnitude of overconfidence for large intervals. Hence\, when aggregating across small and large intervals in this task\, participants are on average well calibrated. Our results suggest that this form of overconfidence may not be as robust as previously thought.
