SUMMARY:Exhibition:Redefining the Crown
DESCRIPTION:In Winter 2025\, the Lane Hall exhibit space will feature a portraiture series titled Redefining the Crown showcasing the powerful stories of six Black breast cancer survivors.\n\nBased on a photo essay by U-M Faculty Versha Pleasant (MD/MPH) and Ava Purkiss (PhD) in Medicine at Michigan\, this exhibition examines the cultural and personal significance of hair within Black communities\, particularly through the lens of breast cancer treatment and recovery. The term \"crown\" is deeply symbolic in Black culture\, signifying beauty\, strength\, and identity. The featured photo essay by photographer Tafari Stevenson-Howard captures the intimate journeys of Ann Chatman\, Tanisha Kennedy\, Felecia McDaniel\, Shantell Elaine McCoy\, Tamara Lynn Myles\, and Veleria Banks.\n\nThrough their narratives and portraits\, the exhibit examines how these women have navigated the profound impact of hair loss caused by chemotherapy\, inviting the audience to witness their stories with radical empathy. It explores the cultural pride and personal identity intricately tied to their hair\, and how these elements are redefined amidst their battles with breast cancer.\n\nThe exhibit will be on view from January 21\, 2025 to August 8\, 2025. This exhibition is presented with support from IRWG\, the Department of Women's and Gender Studies\, and Michigan Medicine. \n\nLocated on the first floor of Lane Hall (204 S. State Street)\, the Exhibit Space is free and open to the public\, M-F\, 9am-4pm.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Webinar: Elevation Capital\, Vegetation\, and Blue Carbon: Assessing Long-term Outcomes of Tidal Wetland Restoration
DESCRIPTION:Tens of millions of dollars have been spent on tidal wetland restoration over the past several decades but there is still limited information on the long-term ecological outcomes of these efforts. To address this\, a collaborative research project worked with four west coast NERRS and regional partners to assess marsh elevation capital\, vegetation communities\, and carbon sequestration in 16 decades-old restoration sites and paired reference marshes in California\, Oregon\, and Washington. By investigating how restoration has affected key wetland attributes at some of the oldest restoration sites along the west coast\, this project brings actionable information to restoration practitioners and others planning for\, designing\, and quantifying benefits of new tidal wetland restoration projects. In this webinar\, the project team discusses their results\, the implications of their findings for future restoration implementation and monitoring\, and next steps.
