SUMMARY:Conference / Symposium:Eisenberg Family Depression Center 25th Anniversary Symposium & Celebration
DESCRIPTION:Join us on November 12 as we celebrate our 25th anniversary with an afternoon research symposium and reception. The day begins with the presentation of the Mike Wallace Award to Dr. John Greden for his leadership and commitment to conquering depression and related illnesses. \n\nThe symposium features a lineup of lightning talks and an interactive panel discussion focused on advances in depression and mental well-being research. We’ll conclude with the presentation of the Eisenberg Research Prize to Dr. John Krystal of the Yale School of Medicine and hear more about his groundbreaking research career. \n\nStay for a reception with U-M colleagues\, collaborators\, and friends of the Center as we toast to this milestone. Appetizers and beverages will be served. Everyone is welcome! Registration required.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Empirical Bayes for Compound Adaptive Experiments (joint with Karun Adusumilli and Junfan Tao)
DESCRIPTION:We investigate Empirical Bayes (EB) methods in the context of compound adaptive experiments\, where the arm distribution in each experiment follows a normal distribution with an unknown mean that we seek to estimate. There are two main EB strategies: g-modeling\, which estimates the prior by maximizing the marginal likelihood\, and f-modeling\, which derives posterior means directly from the empirical distribution of the observations. We show that g-modeling continues to be a valid EB procedure even when it incorrectly assumes that data are collected exogenously\; its validity does not depend on the particular sampling algorithm or on whether sample sizes are endogenous. In practice\, one can apply standard g-modeling techniques by acting as though the data were exogenously sampled. We extend regret guarantees from exogenous sampling to adaptively generated data. By contrast\, naively applying the Tweedie formula based on the marginal density of the observed data\, as in standard f-modeling\, can produce biased rules under adaptive sampling. We corroborate the robustness of g-modeling through simulations with widely used adaptive algorithms and demonstrate its applicability using a real-world dataset consisting of multiple sequential experiments.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Graduate Student Arts Research Grant - Info Session and Q&A (Winter Cycle)
DESCRIPTION:Thinking about applying for the Graduate Student Arts Research Grant (GSARG)? Join the University of Michigan Arts Initiative for a virtual open house to learn more about this funding opportunity for graduate student-led arts research across U-M.\n\nGSARG provides grants of up to $3\,000 to support graduate student-led research projects that incorporate artistic practices\, methods\, or approaches. Open to graduate students across the university\, the program supports innovative and interdisciplinary research that integrates the arts into scholarship and inquiry. Learn more here: https://arts.umich.edu/gsarg\n\nDuring this informal session\, we’ll introduce the grant program\, discuss eligibility and the application process\, share practical tips for developing a competitive proposal\, and highlight the kinds of projects GSARG is designed to support. You’ll also have plenty of time to ask questions directly to Arts Initiative staff.\n\nApplication deadline: Friday\, January 22\, 2027
