SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Exploring Digital Privacy from a Child’s Perspective
DESCRIPTION:Join us for this Privacy@Michigan Event.\n\nConversations about children’s digital privacy are frequent\, and with good reason: ad revenue to tech companies from child viewers topped 11 billion dollars in 2023. These conversations include policymakers\, educators\, researchers\, and parents\, but children themselves are rarely included. The purpose of this talk will therefore be to explore what we know about children’s own perspectives on their digital privacy\, particularly in the age of artificial intelligence. We’ll cover what they notice\, care about\, and understand as it relates to online privacy and data security\, and what researchers can explore next to continue child-centered conversations about how best to keep children safe online.\n\nDr. Lauren N. Girouard is a National Science Foundation postdoctoral research scholar at the University of Michigan and Harvard University\, where she works with Drs. Susan Gelman\, Ying Xu\, and Jenny Radesky on projects examining children’s beliefs about AI chatbots and how those beliefs translate into digital literacy in home and classroom environments. She graduated with her PhD in Experimental Psychology from the University of Louisville in May 2024. Her work broadly examines how 4- to 17-year-old children think about\, trust\, and learn from emerging technologies and AI. \n\nAdd this event to your Google calendar.\nhttps://calendar.google.com/calendar/u/0/r/eventedit/copy/MnRpdnA0Z3JpYzRhMWM2Y241NXMwNmdzYzYgdW1pY2guZWR1X2ZkczI0Z2V2cGE0MnY5NTc2bG5wZTJjbWxrQGc

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Oxyanion Reduction with Iron Catalysts
DESCRIPTION:The development of synthetic models that mimic the highly specialized coordination spheres of metalloenzymes remains a primary goal in inorganic synthesis\, particularly for the reduction of kinetically inert oxyanions. This work describes the design and reactivity of a bio-inspired nonheme iron framework\, [N(afaCy)3Fe]OTf2\, emphasizing the role of secondary coordination sphere interactions in facilitating challenging multi-electron/multi-proton transfer processes. By tailoring the ligand architecture to stabilize reactive intermediates\, we demonstrate the selective catalytic reduction of nitrogen oxyanions (NO3– and NO2–) to N2 or NH3. Mechanistic insights obtained through isotopic labeling\, spectroscopic characterization\, and computational analysis identify a key hydroxylamine intermediate\, illustrating how structural modifications to the iron center dictate divergent reaction pathways. Furthermore\, the complex demonstrates a distinct selectivity profile in the oxygen reduction reaction (ORR)\, favoring a two-electron/two-proton pathway to produce hydrogen peroxide\, an uncommon result for nonheme iron catalysts that underscores the influence of the local chemical environment on redox transformations. These results highlight the importance of precise structural control in the synthesis of iron-based complexes for the transformation of diverse chemical feedstocks and the advancement of sustainable catalysis.
