SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Consulting Career Seminar for Psychology PhD Students
DESCRIPTION:Learn about an exciting career option outside academia from Michigan Psychology Department alum\, David Krauss\, Ph.D.\, who is a principal scientist at Exponent. All levels of Psychology PhD students are welcome and food will be provided! Exponent investigates human factors to make products safer\, improve work environments\, investigate accidents\, and inform product design\, by examining what drives human decisions\, behaviors\, and actions. David has spent the last 22+ years applying his expertise in cognitive psychology to solving real-world problems by answering challenging questions about the capabilities and limitations of human perception and performance. We hope to see you there!

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Derived Fun: Towards Homotopical Algebra
DESCRIPTION:Derived functors play a central role in commutative algebra\, organizing algebraic computations through exact sequences and homological methods. This talk begins with a brief conceptual revisit of derived functors in homological algebra\, and then examines Kähler differentials of commutative rings as a motivating example for why we want derived functors beyond abelian categories. \n\nTo address this problem\, we trace Dan Quillen’s insight that homotopical methods provide an ideal framework for defining derived functors in nonabelian settings. Along the way\, we encounter his definition of model categories\, which have since become central tools in modern homotopy theory. From this perspective\, the cotangent complex arises as a derived replacement for Kähler differentials. We will outline the construction of the cotangent complex and discuss some of its powerful applications to deformation theory. Time permitting\, I will say something about how the homotopical viewpoint reconciles with homological algebra.
