SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Dr. Derek Griffith - Black Men's Health 2/18
DESCRIPTION:\"Black Men’s Health 40 Years after the 'Heckler Report': Where do we go from here?\"\n\nDr. Derek M. Griffith is the Risa Lavizzo-Mourey Population Health and Health Equity University Professor at the University of Pennsylvania. At Penn\, he also is a Fellow and Senior Advisor on Health Equity and Anti-Racism for The Leonard Davis Institute of Health Economics. Outside of Penn he serves as the Chair of Global Action on Men’s Health – a global men’s health advocacy organization – and Editor-in-Chief of the International Journal of Men’s Social and Community Health. Trained in psychology and public health\, Dr. Griffith’s research focuses on achieving racial\, ethnic\, and gender equity in health. He specializes in community-based interventions to promote Black men's health and well-being\, and anti-racism interventions to mitigate and undo the effects of structural racism on health.\n\nThe EPIC Pathways Leadership Series is a speaker series hosted by the University of Michigan School of Nursing that welcomes leaders in the fields of nursing and healthcare to share their expertise and engage members of the UM community in critical thinking\, learning\, and dialogue about topics in health equity. Our goal is to expose UM faculty\, staff\, students\, and alumni to some of the most pressing and relevant topics in health equity and nursing. Attendees will be challenged to learn\, unlearn\, and expand upon their own views while also networking with leaders who have a demonstrated commitment to advancing equity in healthcare.\n\nWe'll begin with Dr. Griffith's presentation and end with Q&A.\n\nPlease register on Sessions:\nhttps://sessions.studentlife.umich.edu/track/event/session/82045

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:EEB Tuesday Seminar Series - Just Scratching the Surface: Exploring The Significance of Deep Earth Fungi
DESCRIPTION:This event is part of our ongoing Tuesday Lunch Seminar Series.\n\nFungi are ubiquitous on the planet and continuously regulate ecosystem function and productivity. Accordingly\, extensive research connects most of fungal diversification and adaptation to sustained reliance on phototrophs in surface systems. The Deep Earth Biosphere\, however\, is now estimated to contain a majority of the planet’s microbial cells. Despite fungi presumably inhabiting the Deep Earth for hundreds of millions of years\, little is known about subsurface fungi\, and micro-eukaryotes more broadly. As an exclusively microbial ecosystem void of ongoing photosynthetic input\, investigation of the Deep Subsurface Biosphere enables examination of the presumed innate qualities of kingdom Fungi\, and eukaryotes more broadly.

SUMMARY:Other:ELO | Principles of Data Visualization Workshop
DESCRIPTION:Ann Arbor Data Dive - Principles of Data Visualization Workshop | 12:00 pm  - 1:00 pm\nTuesday February 18\, 2025 | UMSI Engagement Center Great Room 200 \n\nThis workshop will provide an overview of data visualization principles. It will help participants to develop a language and sense of design elements necessary for creating data visualizations in any software. We will cover best practices and how to approach designing data visualizations. There will also be a small interactive component where participants can create their own data visualizations.\n\nJustin Joque is a scholar of philosophy\, technology\, and media. Justin also serves as a visualization librarian at the University of Michigan\, where his work involves assisting users with data research\, analysis\, and visualization as well as teaching workshops on data visualization literacy and tools.

SUMMARY:Performance:Jessi Grieser\, carillon
DESCRIPTION:LSA faculty member Jessi Grieser performs on the Charles Baird Carillon\, an instrument of 53 bronze bells located inside the Burton Memorial Tower. The largest bell\, which strikes the hour\, weighs 12 tons\, while the smallest bell\, 4½ octaves above\, weighs just 15 pounds.\n\nThirty-minute recitals are performed on the Charles Baird Carillon at noon every weekday that classes are in session\, followed by visitor Q&A with the carillonist. The bell chamber may be accessed via a combination of elevator and stairs. Take the elevator to the highest floor possible (floor 8)\, and then climb two flights of stairs (39 steps) to the bell chamber (floor 10). Hearing protection earmuffs are provided for visitors. Be prepared to walk on ice and snow in the bell chamber during winter. Built in 1936\, the Charles Baird Carillon is not ADA accessible. Visitors with mobility concerns are invited to visit the Lurie Carillon.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:LRCCS Noon Lecture Series. Did Coca-Cola Outsmart China? The Scientific Secrets behind Coke’s Success in Shaping China’s Obesity Policies (Virtual)
DESCRIPTION:*Virtual Talk: We regret that Susan Greenhalgh is now not able to come in person\, and will be giving her presentation through Zoom only. Please register below to attend.* \n\nModern science and technology are central to Chinese politics and CCP power\, but the intimate connections between science and party politics in China remain poorly understood. This talk presents a case of the corporate corruption of science by Big Food in the US\, and the successful export of that corrupted science to China followed by its incorporation into Chinese health policy. In the mid-1990s the exploding epidemic of obesity posed an existential threat to Big Soda. Led by Coca-Cola\, the industry mobilized scientists to quietly create a “soda-defense science” of obesity\, one geared not to solving a public health problem but to protecting profits on unhealthy sugar-rich drinks. Arguing that science-making in China reflects the nation’s unusual history and socio-political institutions\, this talk highlights five distinctive features of Chinese science-making\, then uses them to unravel the secrets to Coke’s success in shaping China’s obesity policies. Elaborated in Soda Science: Making the World Safe for Coca-Cola\, this research suggests that the corporate corruption of Chinese science and policy is more pervasive than we think\, and that the party’s celebrated “scientific policy making” may not yield better policy.\n   \n   An anthropologist and specialist in the social study of science\, Dr. Greenhalgh’s interests lie in the entanglements of state\, corporation\, science\, and society\, and their consequences for human health and social justice writ large. She is author of several books on the one-child policy\, including the award-winning *Just One China: Science and Policy in Deng’s China*. Her recent works include *Fat-Talk Nation: The Human Costs of America’s War on Fat and Can Science and Technology Save China?* (as co-editor)\, among other titles. Recognized by several lifetime career achievement awards\, Greenhalgh is currently the John King and Wilma Cannon Fairbank Professor of Chinese Society emerita in the Fairbank Center for Chinese Studies at Harvard University.
