SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Reimagining Ancient Reactions for the 21st Century
DESCRIPTION:The ability to prepare highly functionalized molecules in general and predictable ways is central to modern drug design and discovering new treatments for human disease. The aim of our program is to create new methods to solve the longstanding synthetic challenge of asymmetrically constructing biologically active small molecules. Classical synthetic approaches based on CH activations are ubiquitous but limited by the inherent directing effects of embedded heteroatoms. This presentation will discuss our recently discovered scheme to access highly basic ion pairs with organolithiums which provides a new pathway to override intrinsic heteroatom directing effects. In addition\, we will describe our progress in developing new methods for carbon-oxygen bond formation reactions that utilizes primary ozonide intermediates.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Research Talk: Evolutionary dynamics of cooperation via indirect reciprocity
DESCRIPTION:Abstract\nWe live in a society. Cooperation makes societies work. Every day\, we choose to help others at personal cost and forgo chances to cheat others for personal gain–even when the “others” in question are unrelated strangers. Reputations help explain this puzzling behavior\; we seek the approval of our peers and fear the sting of shame. If my behavior yields a good reputation\, others may be more likely to cooperate with me. Thus\, reputation-based cooperation is called \"indirect reciprocity\".\n\nBut under what circumstances can indirect reciprocity facilitate a cooperative status quo? What happens when members of a society have divergent opinions about each other’s moral standing? And what kinds of rules for assigning reputations tend to emerge in the first place?\n\nI leverage the machinery of evolutionary game theory\, theoretical population genetics\, and adaptive dynamics to answer these critical questions. I demonstrate the importance of consensus-building processes\, including gossip and institutions\, for the sustenance of cooperation in complex societies. I show that social norms which mandate the punishment of bad actors are especially likely to evolve–a double-edged sword\, because such norms are vulnerable to death spirals of disagreement. Finally\, I furnish implications for philosophy\, politics\, social justice\, network science\, and the broader discourse\, all of which will shape future research into this exciting mechanism.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Asian American is Not a Color: Conversations on Race\, Affirmative Action\, and Family
DESCRIPTION:The National Center for Institutional Diversity continues our conversation concerning the June 2023 Supreme Court decision\, Students for Fair Admissions\, Inc. (SFFA) v. President & Fellows of Harvard College (Harvard) and SFFA v. University of North Carolina (UNC)\, Nos. 20-1199 & 21-707\, that effectively ended race-conscious admissions practices. See our previous events for reference:\n\n-Affirmative Action and Black Student Success: The Pursuit of a “Critical Mass” at Historically White Universities\n-In the Face of Resistance: Advancing Equity in Higher Education\n\nWe move this discussion to examine the book Asian American Is Not a Color: Conversations on Race\, Affirmative Action\, and Family by Dr. OiYan A. Poon. Within this book\, Dr. Poon as “a mother and race scholar seeks to answer her daughter's many questions about race and racism with an earnest exploration into race relations and affirmative action from the perspectives of Asian Americans.”\n\nIn this book talk\, Dr. Poon will offer an overview and deep insight into her text\, which contends with the complex racial positionalities of Asian Americans and their roles in shaping the future of race in the US. Accompanied by a stellar panel of scholars\, she will address what higher education can and must continue to do to meet their public missions\; specifically within the context of the political climate of continuing attacks on efforts toward intersectional racial equity and justice\, in the aftermath of the 2023 Supreme Court ruling on race-conscious admissions.
