SUMMARY:Social / Informal Gathering:Fall 2022 Aphasia Social Hours
DESCRIPTION:The free\, virtual social hour is open to people with aphasia and is a low-pressure way to practice communication skills and connect with others. Building confidence and staying social are some of the best things you can do for yourself and loved ones when aphasia is a part of your life!\n\nAphasia social hours will now occur twice a month\, on every First and Third Thursday\, from 1-2 pm (EST)\, via Zoom.\n\n2022 Fall/Winter Dates\n+ Sept. 1 and 15\n+ Oct. 6 and 20\n+ Nov. 3 and 17\n+ Dec. 1 and 15\n\nPLEASE NOTE: While all are welcome\, the intent behind the social hours is to offer a place for people with aphasia to connect and practice their communication skills. While care partners are encouraged to assist the person with aphasia\, we ask that care partners refrain from taking an active role in the conversation so people with aphasia have the time and space to connect.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Intro to Neurodiversity: Unmasking Autism
DESCRIPTION:Upcoming DEI event:\n\nIntro to Neurodiversity: Unmasking Autism\, in conversation with social psychologist/professor/author Devon Price\, PhD\n​​​​​​​\nAn event sponsored by the Michigan Medicine Health Information Technology & Services (HITS) DEI Committee\n\nWhen: Thursday\, November 3\, 2022 1:00-3:00pm EST (Zoom Webinar)\n\nRegister in advance: \nhttps://umich.zoom.us/webinar/register/WN_OpxZB0K9RJ6g3E5vCO2ABQ\n\n*After registering\, you will receive a confirmation email containing information about joining the meeting.\n\nThis event is open to anyone at Michigan Medicine and University of Michigan\; please feel free to share with your peers! \n\nDescription of the Presentation:  In this presentation\, Dr. Devon Price introduces attendees to the neurodiversity movement and the social model of disability\, explains what Autism really is versus the pervasive myths we've all been told about the neurotype\, and outlines essential accommodations that neurodiverse people require from care providers\, in their workplaces\, and from public institutions. This workshop places particular emphasis on the phenomenon of masked Autism\, where marginalized and under-diagnosed populations of Autistic people are required to camouflage and compensate for their Autistic traits because they do not meet the cultural stereotype of what Autism \"looks like\" and thus receive far less support. The costs of masking and the ways in which narrow social standards force disabled people to mask\, and how we might collectively work to build a more accepting society will also be highlighted.\n\nAbout the presenter: Dr. Devon Price is the author of the books Laziness Does Not Exist and Unmasking Autism: Discovering the New Faces of Neurodiversity. He is a social psychologist and professor at Loyola University of Chicago’s School of Continuing and Professional Studies. Devon's work has appeared in Slate\, Business Insider\, Financial Times\, HuffPost\, Psychology Today\, and on NPR and PBS\, and he has given recent speaking engagements at Nike\, Indeed\, The University of North Carolina\, Ohio State University\, the Ontario Public Library System\, the Ohio Board of Developmental Disabilities\, and the National Center for Atmospheric Research. He lives in Chicago\, Illinois.\n\nABOUT UNMASKING AUTISM (source: Penguin Random House): https://www.penguinrandomhouse.com/books/688819/unmasking-autism-by-devon-price-phd/

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:\"Can a Literary Mafia Affect Your Choice of Books?\": Jews\, Publishing\, and American Literature
DESCRIPTION:In the 1960s and 1970s\, many American authors\, Jewish and non-Jewish alike\, complained about a “Jewish literary mafia.” While perniciously circulating antisemitic ideas\, such claims also reflected the remarkable success of Jews in the U.S. publishing industry. How did Jews’ roles in publishing influence the development of American literature? How can attention to this story help to produce a more equitable industry now? \n\nThis is a hybrid event.

SUMMARY:Presentation:ChE Seminar: \"Redefining\, repurposing\, and reprogramming post-translational modification enzymes\"
DESCRIPTION:The ChE seminar series features guest speakers. U-M ChE faculty and graduate students are especially encouraged to attend.\n\nABSTRACT:\nThe ability to introduce a chemo- and regioselective post-translational modification (PTM) into a protein is foundational to our understanding of health and disease and is at the center of most chemical biology\, synthetic biology\, biotechnological and biomedical advances. The Denard Lab aims to redefine\, repurpose\, and reprogram enzymes that catalyze PTMs (PTM-enzymes)\, with a focus on proteases and protein ligases. We think of reprogramming a PTM-enzyme in three ways: through protein engineering to modify its biochemical properties\, by functional interactions with a selective ligand\, through substrate engineering and profiling. To achieve these goals\, we have developed several high-throughput functional screens.\n\nIn this talk\, I will first present our current results on engineering the specificity of a human protease towards new targets\, using a high throughput directed evolution platform called YESS 2.0. Our long-term goal is to engineer proteases capable of degrading aggregated proteins. Such engineered enzymes could serve as modalities to investigate and treat protein aggregation diseases (synucleopathies\, transthyretin amyloidosis). In early results\, we have isolated neurosin variants with switched specificity capable of cleaving peptide substrates found in alpha-synuclein. These variants exhibit reduced activity towards a consensus sequence found in protease activatable receptors. Second\, I will share our recent advancements in developing a high-throughput platform to discover protein-based modulators that can reprogram a PTM-enzyme. Our platform is designed to isolate protein-based binders\, including nanobodies\, antibodies\, ScFvs\, that can inhibit\, activate\, or change the substrate specificity of an enzyme. Our results have established this platform as a high-throughput discovery for protease inhibitory nanobodies. Lastly\, we developed a platform to comprehensively profile the substrate specificity of sortases. Using Streptococcus pyogenes sortase A as a model\, we show that extending the sortase substrate beyond the P1’ residue enhances sortase-mediated ligation kinetics. Most importantly\, this comprehensive profiling reveals several non-canonical sortase substrates\, some of which exhibit higher ligation kinetics compared to known sortase substrates.  \n\nBIO:\nDr. Denard received his B.S. degree in Chemical Engineering from North Carolina State University.  He then moved to the Chemical and Biomolecular Engineering department at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign\, where he obtained his PhD under the tutelage of Prof. Huimin Zhao. As a Dow Chemical fellow\, his PhD thesis centered on developing cooperative one-pot chemoenzymatic reactions. Dr. Denard later completed a postdoctoral fellowship in the lab of Prof. Brent Iverson at the University of Texas at Austin establishing high-throughput platforms for engineering the substrate specificity of proteases to enable their use as protein therapeutics. Dr. Denard joined the University of Florida Chemical Engineering department as an Assistant Professor in January 2022. His research focuses on protein engineering for therapeutic and synthetic biology applications\, with a focus on reprogramming PTM-enzymes. For these ongoing efforts\, the Denard lab received the NIH MIRA award in September 2022

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Chairs Distinguished Lecture: Challenges in Modernizing the National Airspace System
DESCRIPTION:Lesley A. Weitz\nSenior Principal Aerospace Engineer and Department Chief Scientist\nThe MITRE Corporation\, Center for Advanced Aviation System Development\n\nAbout the seminar:\nThe MITRE Corporation’s Center for Advanced Aviation System Development (CAASD) is the Federally Funded Research and Development Center (FFRDC) for the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA). In this role\, MITRE CAASD works with the FAA to study and improve today’s operations in the National Airspace System (NAS) and envision future operations and their enabling technologies. The future NAS will support diverse users – uncrewed systems\, Advanced Air Mobility\, space launch and re-entry operations\, as well as traditional air transport and general aviation operations – through increasing levels of automation and information exchange to aid in data-driven decision making and proactive safety monitoring. \n\nThis presentation will provide a high-level overview of MITRE CAASD’s work supporting the FAA in achieving a more information-centric NAS that supports diverse airspace users. Real-world challenges where technology\, human decision makers and operators\, policies\, and budgets intersect will be highlighted. If that is not ambitious enough\, this presentation will also cover workforce needs\, where you will be thoroughly convinced your aerospace engineering education was the best decision you have ever made. \n\nAbout the speaker:\nDr. Lesley A. Weitz is a Senior Principal Aerospace Engineer and Department Chief Scientist in MITRE CAASD. Her current research includes advanced avionics for NextGen concepts\, including concept development\, design\, trajectory modeling\, and performance analysis. Dr. Weitz is also leading a project to study the use of an aggregate NAS network model to study how traffic management strategies impact NAS resilience. Dr. Weitz is the Chair of an avionics standards body developing advanced avionics applications\, and she developed an inter-aircraft spacing algorithm (think automatic cruise control for airplanes) as part of that work.  \n\nDr. Weitz received her B.S. in Mechanical Engineering in 2002 from the University at Buffalo and her M.S. and Ph.D. degrees in Aerospace Engineering from Texas A&M University in 2005 and 2009\, respectively.   She is the author of over 45 peer-reviewed conference and journal papers.  Additionally\, she has been awarded a patent by the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office entitled\, “Methods and Systems for Determining Required Interval Management Performance.” Dr. Weitz is an Associate Fellow of the American Institute of Aeronautics and Astronautics (AIAA)\, a former Chair of the Guidance\, Navigation\, and Control Technical Committee\, and is currently the Director of the AIAA Aerospace Sciences Group.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:EEB Thursday Seminar - VIRTUAL: (Re)building the coral tree of life: *through ocean exploration\, museum specimens* and *genomic discovery*
DESCRIPTION:Our weekly seminar series featuring internal and external speakers in the field of ecology and evolutionary biology. This seminar will be in-person and livestreaming on Zoom (link this page).\n\nAbstract:\nCorals and their relatives are some of the most ecologically important metazoans on earth\, from shallow waters to the deep sea. With ocean conditions changing at rates faster than previously recognized\, we must determine the factors that shape coral diversity across depth\, space\, and time. And because the drivers of marine diversity are poorly known in the largest environment on earth—the deep sea—I often focus my questions on processes that generate deep-sea coral diversity. Therefore\, with collaborators across the world\, I am combining genomic approaches with museum specimens and ocean exploration to rebuild the coral tree of life and answer fundamental questions regarding coral diversity.\n\nContact eebsemaccess@umich.edu for Zoom password at least 2 hours prior to event.
