SUMMARY:Exhibition:Resistance is Fertile: Celebrating 30 Years of Cultivating Change
DESCRIPTION:Resistance Is Fertile honors the founding moment of the Institute for Research on Women & Gender\, while speaking to the present. The institute was established because faculty members believed that research on women\, gender\, and sexuality required an institutional commitment to thrive. That belief was itself a form of resistance—to disciplinary silos\, to marginalization\, to the idea that such scholarship was peripheral.\n\nThis theme reminds us that resistance is not merely reactive\; it is constructive. When rooted in collaboration and sustained through infrastructure\, it produces knowledge that reshapes disciplines\, institutions\, and public life.\n\nThis exhibit celebrates 30 years of IRWG—its history\, its programs\, and the people whose vision and labor built it into what it is today. Through archival materials\, milestones\, and stories\, we trace the evolution of an institute that has continually expanded the boundaries of research in women\, gender\, and sexuality.\n\nThis exhibit centers growth\, collaboration\, and intellectual creativity—honoring the sustained efforts\, bold ideas\, and collective care that have shaped IRWG’s legacy and continue to guide its future.\n\nHosted and sponsored by the Institute for Research on Women and Gender and the Department of Women’s and Gender Studies\, U-M. \n\nLocated on the first floor of Lane Hall (204 S. State Street)\, the Exhibit Space is free and open to the public\, M-F\, 9am-4pm.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Statistics Department Seminar Series: Rajarshi Mukherjee\, Associate Professor\, Department of Biostatistics\, Harvard University
DESCRIPTION:Abstract: In this talk we will discuss statistical inference of average treatment effect in measured confounder settings as well as parallel questions of inferring linear and quadratic functionals in generalized linear models under high dimensional proportional asymptotic settings i.e. when pn→δ∈(0\,∞) where p\,n denote the dimension of the covariates and the sample size respectively . The results rely on the knowledge of the variance covariance matrix  of the covariates under study and we show that whereas n-consistent asymptotically normal inference is possible for any  by using method of moments type estimators that do not rely on estimating high dimensional nuisance parameters followed by a debiasing strategy. Without the knowledge of  we first develop n-consistent estimators by using simple estimators of   when <1. Subsequently for ≥1 we develop consistent estimators of the quantities of interest and argue that  n-consistent estimation might not be possible without further assumptions on . Finally we verify our results in numerical simulations. This talk is based on joint work with Xingyu Chen and Lin Liu from Shanghai Jiao Tong University.
