SUMMARY:Community Service:Translate-a-thon
DESCRIPTION:Our annual hybrid marathon welcomes translators to come together and translate for the community. We kick off this year's event with an alumni panel of four professionals who have gone on to use their language skills in exciting ways. This is a must-attend event for anyone studying languages\, interested in translation/interpretation\, or planning a career with an international focus. Come be inspired by the possibilities that await when you make languages your superpower!\n\nKeynote Panel From Ann Arbor to the World: The Power of Language in Action [Zoom] is Friday November 7 at 3:00 p.m.\, after which our marathon begins at 5:00 p.m. Join us in person\, or online! \n\nRegistration for the marathon is requested: myumi.ch/Rme1g\n\n\n\n\nYou can find more information\, including a project gallery\, and link to register\, from the LRC website

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Smith Lecture: Emmy Smith
DESCRIPTION:Since Darwin first noted the seemingly abrupt appearance of fossils in Cambrian strata\, the cause and tempo of the ‘Cambrian Explosion’ has remained one of Earth Science’s most provocative research topics. Contrary to Darwin’s hypothesis that this phenomenon reflected a largely eroded and imperfect geological record\, scientists have spent the past 70 years unraveling a diverse Precambrian biosphere characterized by the deep roots of eukaryotic evolution. Now\, it is generally agreed that the Neoproterozoic origins of animals and multicellularity are at least partly related to genetic challenges (e.g.\, Butterfield\, 2018)\; however\, the simultaneous explosion in body size\, morphological features\, and skeletonization in the Cambrian is almost certainly the result of external “triggers” (e.g.\, Erwin et al.\, 2011\; Zhang et al.\, 2014\; Schiffbauer et al.\, 2016)\, the nature of which have been widely debated. Mechanistic hypotheses for the Cambrian radiation have ranged from ecological concepts\, such as ecosystem engineering (Butterfield\, 2011\; Erwin and Tweedt\, 2012\; Butterfield\, 2018)\, changes in resource patchiness (Budd and Jensen\, 2017)\, or organism-organism interactions (Peterson et al.\, 2005\; Marshall\, 2006\; Schiffbauer et al.\, 2016)\, to environmental parameters like marine oxygenation (e.g.\, Sperling et al.\, 2013)\, changes in global seawater chemistry (Peters and Gaines\, 2012)\, an increase in nutrient or food resources (Cook and Shergold\, 1984\; Sperling and Stockey\, 2018)\, or true polar wander (Mitchell et al.\, 2015). Despite the diversity of these hypotheses\, the question of timing has consistently surfaced as a critical component in evaluating the proposed drivers of the Cambrian radiation.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Krimm Lecture with Sujit Datta \"Bacterial life and death in complex spaces\"
DESCRIPTION:Bacteria are arguably the simplest form of life\; yet\, as multi-cellular collectives\, they perform complex functions critical to biotechnology\, the environment\, and human health. What principles govern how complex behaviors emerge in bacterial collectives? And how can we harness them to control bacterial behavior? In this talk\, I will describe my group's work addressing these questions using tools from soft matter\, 3D imaging\, and biophysical modeling. We have developed the ability to (i) directly visualize bacteria from the scale of a single cell to that of an entire multi-cellular collective\, (ii) 3D-print precisely structured collectives\, and (iii) probe and model their large-scale motion and growth in complex environments. I will describe how\, using this approach\, we are developing new ways to predict and control how bacterial collectives spread large distances\, adapt shape to resist perturbations\, and self-regulate growth to access more space by processing chemical information in their local environments.
