SUMMARY:Careers / Jobs:Fehribach Center Info Session: Internships for Students with Physical Disabilities
DESCRIPTION:Come meet staff from the Gregory S. Fehribach Center in Indianapolis on Monday\, November 16\, from 2-2:45pm.  The Fehribach Center provides paid internships to college students with physical disabilities (mobility\, visual\, hearing\, &amp\; orthopedic). Internships are available for all majors\, and freshmen through graduate students are eligible to apply. In addition to the internship\, housing and transportation assistance is provided as needed\, along with impactful professional development opportunities throughout the summer.The Fehribach Center’s most recent annual report and the attached flyer give much more information aboutthe internship program.  Feel free to contact Fehribach Center director Larry Markle with any questions. This event's information is shown in Handshake as well as on the Happening @ Michigan calendar sothat it will be seen by a larger number of U-M Students. You can only register to attend this event within Handshake. If you'd like to indicate that you'll be attending this event and see more details\, please go to this webpage: https://umich.joinhandshake.com/events/2018914/share_preview We want to ensure full and equitable participation in our events. If an accessibility accommodation would promote your full participation in this event\, please indicate your accommodation requirements via the link below\, preferably at least 14 days prior to the program to ensure sufficient time for arranging your requested accommodation(s) or exploring suitable alternatives.

SUMMARY:Presentation:From Printed Page to Research Data: Building Humanities Tools with AI Agents
DESCRIPTION:Attend a live demonstration\, where Kwok-leong Tang\, Harvard University\, shows how AI coding agents\, such as Claude Code\, let a humanist build research tools by describing them in plain language\, without being a trained programmer.\n\nAttend in person or register to join via Zoom (https://myumi.ch/Ax23x). No laptop or setup is needed for in-person attendees.\n\nThe main demonstration is a full pipeline that turns printed materials into structured data: scanned pages go through OCR (turning page images into text)\, and the text then becomes a table of people\, places\, and dates\, each checked against reference databases such as Wikidata and CBDB (China Biographical Database Project). Dr. Tang will also show other tools he has built this way\, including a batch OCR tool\, a converter for historical Chinese\, Japanese\, and Korean dates\, a tool that suggests Library of Congress subject headings\, and classroom history games made from primary sources. Throughout\, we will look at how to check the agent's work and where this approach breaks down.\n\nFollowing the demonstration\, 3:45-5:00 pm\, Dr. Tang will host an optional office hour for in-person participants who are interested in discussing their own projects related to AI and East Asian studies. This informal session offers an opportunity to receive feedback\, explore possible approaches\, and consider both the potential and limitations of AI tools for your projects.\n\nKwok-leong Tang serves as the managing director of the Digital China Initiative and a lecturer for the Department of East Asian Languages and Civilizations at Harvard University. By training\, he is a historian. He received his bachelor’s and master’s degrees in history from the Chinese University of Hong Kong and a Ph.D. in history and Asian Studies from Pennsylvania State University. In recent years\, he has focused on exploring the potential of new technologies in humanities research. He has organized and instructed workshops on adopting GenAI in Chinese studies and humanities research at Harvard and other institutions.\n\nThe Deep Dive into Digital and Data Methods for Chinese Studies series is sponsored by the U-M Library (Asia Library) and the Lieberthal-Rogel Center for Chinese Studies. For inquiries\, please contact asialibrary@umich.edu.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:HEP-Astro Seminar | HEP-Astro Seminar | Flavor Dependent Jet Fragmentation and Open Science at LHCb
DESCRIPTION:One of the remaining mysteries of the Standard Model is how emergent properties of hadronic matter arise from quark and gluon degrees of freedom. For example\, there is still much to be learned about the process by which hadrons are formed from color charged quarks and gluons (hadronization). The LHCb detector offers a unique opportunity to study this process in terms of the flavor of quarks involved in the hard scattering process\, enabling measurements of the fragmentation process in heavy flavor jets with unprecedented precision. The unique features of these data motivate both a substantial effort to extract high precision measurements of heavy and light flavor jets\, as well as an effort to preserve and provide open access to these data for the physics and data science communities to explore. In this talk\, I will review recent jet fragmentation function measurements from LHCb in comparison to global measurements. I will then briefly cover the LHCb open data efforts\, culminating in the review of a publicly available dataset and analysis workflow enabling exploration of the jet fragmentation process at LHCb.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Math Grad Show and Tell Seminar: A mathematical introduction to knitting
DESCRIPTION:Suppose you want a nice two-dimensional surface\, but only have some one-dimensional string. Is all hope lost? Or could you entwine your string with itself in a way that approximates the surface you dream of? Good news: knitting’s got your back! And all you need to do is pull some loops through other loops. Knitted fabrics are breathable\, flexible\, and easy to construct either by hand or with a machine. They can stretch to about double their length without lengthening the constituent yarn. Knits are so popular that you are probably wearing one right now!\n\nIn this talk\, we will learn how knitted textiles are constructed and explore topological models of knitting. We will learn what it means to be knittable and meet a new knitted stitch that physicists designed to be less prone to unraveling than standard knitting. You will also get to practice knitting a few stitches for yourself!
