SUMMARY:Meeting:Student Machine Learning Seminar and Reading Group Planning Meeting
DESCRIPTION:Machine learning/AI has become a crucial tool in research. Regardless of whether you’re from a more theoretical or applied research background\, you may have already applied ML to your field or are curious to learn more about it. It’s time to have a student seminar dedicated to learning and discussing ML in the math/stats department!\n\nShirlyn\, Kashvi and Chinmaya\, PhD students from the math department are organizing this seminar. This planning meeting will be an opportunity to share ideas\, discuss possible topics\, and identify potential speakers to make this seminar as impactful as possible. There will also be discussions about the possibility of having ML focused reading groups. Everyone is welcome to attend.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:The Energy Transition in Rural America
DESCRIPTION:Contemporary differences between rural and urban areas in America have their roots in long-term demographic\, economic\, technological\, and social factors. In the “On the Front Porch” series\, Tony Pipa (Brookings) and Brent Orrell (American Enterprise Institute) sit down with authors of recent research on issues facing rural America to explore these factors and more. These conversations seek to unpack the unique challenges and opportunities facing rural America and consider policy options to promote prosperity and opportunity outside the nation’s major metropolitan areas.\n\nIn “Farming for Wind in Rural Michigan\,” an episode of the Reimagine Rural podcast\, Tony Pipa captures the story of the trade-offs and decisions that local residents in rural Isabella County Michigan faced while considering the viability of siting a wind farm in their community. This discussion with Sarah Mills\, director of the Graham Sustainability Institute’s Center for EmPowering Communities at the University of Michigan\, will use case studies and analysis to explore the role that rural places will play as the country transforms its energy infrastructure\, how these installations affect rural residents and local governments\, and how federal and state policy choices can shape those impacts.\n\nThis conversation will be hosted at the Institute for Social Research at the University of Michigan as a prelude to the Election 2024 and U.S. Climate Policy event\, to be hosted at the Gerald R. Ford School of Public Policy from 5-7 p.m. on September 19. Viewers may submit questions via X (Twitter) to @BrookingsGlobal using #OntheFrontPorch. \n\nThis event is a part of Election ’24: Issues at Stake\, a Brookings initiative aimed to bring public attention to consequential policy issues confronting voters and policymakers in the run up to the 2024 election. This includes equipping leaders with insights and policy ideas to help them govern in 2025 and beyond.
