SUMMARY:Class / Instruction:IOE 101: Christian Jones and Marika Jones “Two Generations\, Two Career Paths\"
DESCRIPTION:In this talk\, mother‑and‑son alumni\, Marika and Christian Jones\, will share how their Industrial and Operations Engineering degrees from the University of Michigan became the launchpad for two very different\, highly successful careers. \n\nTheir discussion will highlight how IOE principles translate far beyond traditional engineering roles—from leading major healthcare fundraising organizations to shaping financial strategy for cutting‑edge aerospace programs. Students will gain insight into navigating unconventional career paths\, recognizing transferable skills\, and confidently pursuing opportunities that align with their passions.

SUMMARY:Well-being:Lunchtime Yoga
DESCRIPTION:Lunchtime yoga is an opportunity to provide your body with some gentle movement\, strengthening\, stretching and balancing.  We will use the poses to reconnect with your senses\, to breathe some life back into ourselves\, find internal balance and to recover from the efforts of the work week.  The focus is on calm reconnection with ourselves rather than working out.  Please bring a mat and a water bottle. Register on our website\, see link below.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:MCDB Seminar Series> From NextGen Epi/Proteomics to  Molecular Glue Discovery
DESCRIPTION:To illustrate how our technology-driven approach enables us to address fundamental biological questions and translate these insights into therapeutic discoveries\, I will describe three newly developed high-throughput screening (HTS) technologies\, ranging from the elucidation of the underlying molecular mechanisms of transcriptional regulation to single-cell proteomics and molecular glue discovery.\n\nBio: Dr. Heng Zhu is a full professor of pharmacology and molecular sciences and oncology at the Johns Hopkins School of Medicine. His research focuses on developing high-throughput screening technologies\, including proteome arrays\, VirD arrays\, and a highly multiplexed DAPPL platform to investigate important basic science and translational questions. \n\nDr. Zhu is a pioneer proteomics technologist who co-invented protein microarray technology. Currently\, his team is engaged in understanding the impacts of DNA epigenetic modifications on transcriptional regulation\, characterization of function GWAS SNPs\, and biomarker discovery.\n\nDr. Zhu received his undergraduate degree in chemistry from Peking University in Beijing\, China. He earned his Ph.D. from Clemson University. He completed a postdoctoral fellowship in genetics at Yale University. Dr. Zhu joined the Johns Hopkins faculty in 2004.\n\nDr. Zhu's work has been recognized with numerous awards and honors\, including two Chair's Awards from the Gordon Research Conference.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Rackham Drama and Performance Interest Group
DESCRIPTION:The Drama and Performance Interest Group brings together performers from theatre\, dance\, visual art\, and music with scholars from fields as varied as dance studies\, ethnomusicology\, history\, American studies\, literary studies\, art history\, classics\, and anthropology. We foster critical inquiry into the historical\, social\, and political dimensions of global drama and performance. The Drama and Performance Interest group conceives of performance broadly and considers it to be an essential human expression. Last year\, we added ‘critical dance studies’ to our definition of performance. There is no theatre graduate program at U-M\, nor is there a graduate program in critical dance studies\, thus the Interest Group expands beyond current degree programs and departments to create space for cross-departmental\, interdisciplinary collaboration for graduate students interested in drama and performance\, broadly defined.

SUMMARY:Film Screening:T.REX
DESCRIPTION:With stunning CGI visuals and the latest research from leading paleontologists\, the film offers audiences a fresh perspective on the GOAT (Greatest Of All Tyrants): Tyrannosaurus rex. Anchored by the true story of the young fossil hunters who made the discovery of a lifetime when they spotted a large fossilized leg bone on a walk on public lands in North Dakota\, T. REX intercuts the remarkable fossil dig\, with cutting edge computer graphics that bring the iconic T. rex to life—from hatchling to hulking adult. Narrated by Jurassic Park actor Sam Neill\, T. REX explores the newest science that has helped reinvent our understanding of the iconic predator.
