Workshop / Seminar:COSMO-ASTRO SEMINAR | Large Scale Structure: Symmetry-Violations and Data Combinations
2024-06-12 14:00 - 15:00 (America/Detroit) | Randall Laboratory - 3246
Recent measurements of the galaxy four point function indicate parity-violations in the LSS of the Universe. If physical in origin, this could point to novel physics during the epoch of inflation. In this two-part talk, I will first show how to use a novel unsupervised method to search for parity-violations in galaxy surveys maps and discuss why this approach addresses the main shortcomings in the existing four point analysis. In the second part of this talk, I will discuss new results and techniques to practically perform joint analyses in the upcoming epoch of large overlapping photometric, spectroscopic and CMB experiments.

Workshop / Seminar:Small Group: Disability Identity
2024-06-12 15:00 - 16:00
Whether you were born with a disability, acquired a disability, or received a diagnosis that revealed why you encounter certain barriers in life—living with disability can be a turbulent experience mentally and emotionally. The LSA Disability Navigators are facilitating small group discussions for LSA employees (faculty and staff, including student workers) who want space to process their experiences and seek advice from a group of peers who also live with disability.

Participants will:

1. Learn about the 7 stages of disability acceptance.

2. Explore how to incorporate disability into your identity in a healthy way.

3. Receive coaching on the disclosure process and how to foster a support network.

4. Crowdsource resources and advice for navigating work and life with a disability.

Participant Privacy: Disclosure of disability is not required or expected to participate. Participants may share as much—or as little—about their personal situation as they are comfortable. By registering, you are agreeing to respect the privacy of other participants and agreeing to not share their identities or details of their lives outside of the discussion session.
