SUMMARY:Exhibition:Journey of Self-Discovery
DESCRIPTION:To experience an interesting piece of art is to feel ALIVE. It propels one out of reality (for a moment) and transcends the spirit to a special place much like a spiritual awakening.\n\nI am interested in the creative process even more than the final product. The process of art making is therapeutic and one of self-discovery. It is a chance to play like a child and to allay fears/worries and to lose the confines of the world around you. It offers you a chance to dream\, dance and explore unknown worlds.\n\nThis exhibit is mainly focused on this creative process which I call the ‘Journey of Self-Discovery. Each painting has been created according to this process. Mindfulness is the goal.\n\nWe all see things from different angles based on our own individual experiences. I encourage you to look at things from your own perspective – each piece invites you to consider your own viewpoint\, a chance to let go and experience some unique personal other-worldly environments. Enjoy.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Equity-Centered Prototyping
DESCRIPTION:Prototyping is a tool that can be used throughout the design process: to generate ideas\, validate concepts\, or explore technologies. There is a need to develop and test ideas without causing harm to others\, while the possibilities have evolved exponentially — new prototyping tools and approaches are introduced every year. This workshop will help you understand what\, how\, and when to prototype\, and to transform good ideas into interactive\, emotional experiences with an equity lens.\n\nThis event is part of Innovation Week programming and is hosted in partnership with Design+Business at Michigan Ross.\n \n----------------------------------\nThis session will be run by Keesa V Johnson (MDes)\, an award-winning creative systems designer and design strategist who uses African and indigenous principles throughout the design thinking process.  Keesa works in different dimensions of the Michigan Food system working to build a more equitable future through community-engaged design and research using equity as a lens for social innovation. She currently has her own design firm called the Equity and Access group which works on systems change projects in the food system.  She is also the Racial Equity Chair of the Washtenaw Food Policy Council\, the project leader for the Washtenaw County Black Farmers Fund\, and has been a design leader within academia\, government\, and technology companies.

SUMMARY:Presentation:ChE SEMINAR: \"Bioengineering beyond cells to enable a fair and sustainable 21st bio-century\"
DESCRIPTION:The ChE seminar series features guest speakers. U-M ChE faculty and graduate students are especially encouraged to attend. \n\nABSTRACT:\nSynthetic biology (SB) is one of the most promising fields of research for the 21st century. SB offers powerful new ways to improve human health\, build the global economy\, manufacture sustainable materials\, and address climate change. However\, current access to SB-enabled breakthroughs is unequal\, largely due to bottlenecks in infrastructure and education. Here\, I describe our efforts to re-think the way we engineer biology using cell-free systems to address these bottlenecks. We show how the ability to readily store\, distribute\, and activate low-cost\, freeze-dried cell-free systems by simply adding water has opened new opportunities for on-demand biomanufacturing of vaccines for global health\, point-of-care diagnostics for environmental safety\, and education for SB literacy and citizenship. By integrating cell-free systems with artificial intelligence (AI)\, we also show the ability to accelerate the production of carbon-negative platform chemicals. Looking forward\, advances in engineering tools and new knowledge underpinning the fundamental science of living matter will ensure that SB helps solve humanity’s most pressing challenges.  \n\nBIO:\nMichael Jewett is the Charles Deering McCormick Professor of Teaching Excellence\, the Walter P. Murphy Professor of Chemical and Biological Engineering\, and Director of the Center for Synthetic Biology at Northwestern University. Dr. Jewett received his PhD in 2005 at Stanford University\, completed postdoctoral studies at the Center for Microbial Biotechnology in Denmark and the Harvard Medical School\, and was a guest professor at the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology (ETH Zurich).

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Using Traffic Signals to Decongest Cities May Be Simpler Than We Thought
DESCRIPTION:This presentation focuses on two well-known means of re-timing ordinary traffic signals to mitigate city-street traffic congestion. The first entails synchronizing green times on 4-way (i.e.\, all-directional) street grids. The second involves re-timing the signals that reside along cordon lines\, to meter vehicle inflows during the morning rush. We show that\, in both cases\, simple strategies can perform remarkably well. The lecture will offer next steps toward real-world implementation. \n\nTo synchronize green times\, Professor Cassidy's team use common phase durations for all signals on a grid\, rather than optimize each signal’s timing plan to suit local conditions. This simple idea enables them to exploit features of perfectly orthogonal grids to synchronize all signals on the grid in two orthogonal (e.g.\, northbound\, and westbound) travel directions. As a result\, drivers headed toward clustered workplaces in the morning rush\, and away from those workplaces in the evening\, can enjoy exceptionally good signal progression over their entire trips\, even when their  paths entail two directions. One synchronization mode is used for undersaturated conditions when queues dissipate during green times\; another is used when conditions become oversaturated with long residual queues\; and the team's strategy toggles promptly between these two synchronization modes\, as measurable conditions on the grid change over time. Simulations of numerous scenarios indicate that our simple\, adaptive strategy dramatically outperforms other synchronization schemes\, including complicated ones and those viewed as gold standards. Importantly\, the presentation also shows that their strategy can be easily modified to perform well on irregular\, real-world street grids.\n\nAs regards cordon metering\, they fill a gaping hole in the literature by providing logical and easy-to-follow rules on how exactly to place cordons around clustered workplaces. Simulations show that the simple rules hold for varying congestion levels and regional configurations\, and that following the rules can be impactful\, especially when cities become severely congested.\n\n---\n\nAbout the speaker: Michael Cassidy is the Robert Horonjeff Professor and Chancellor’s Professor of Civil and Environmental Engineering at the University of California\, Berkeley. He received a doctorate in Civil Engineering (majoring in Transportation Engineering) from Berkeley\; served for nearly 4 years as an Assistant Professor in the School of Civil Engineering at Purdue University in West Lafayette\, Indiana\; and joined the Berkeley faculty in 1994. He is currently an associate editor of the journal Transportation Research Part B. He is a member of the International Advisory Committee for the International Symposium on Transportation and Traffic Theory\; a former Director of the University Transportation Center for federal region 9\; and a Vice Chair in Berkeley’s Civil and Environmental Engineering Department. His research interests focus on transportation planning and management\, particularly in the areas of highway traffic\, public mass transit and multi-modal systems.
