SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Biomedical Engineering Seminar Series
DESCRIPTION:Global Women's Health Innovation\nAbstract:\nDhanu Thiyag\, MD MPH FACOG is an Assistant Professor of Obstetrics and Gynecology and Affiliate Faculty of Biomedical Engineering at the University of Michigan. As a clinician-scientist\, she focuses on designing and clinically evaluating medical devices and simulation-based educational programming specifically for the goal of women’s health equity. This is crucial as medical devices and programming not designed for the context of use are typically neither sustained nor disseminated. Examples of her work include devices for cervical cancer screening to diagnosing postpartum hemorrhage as well as simulation-based education to prevent cesarean deliveries to conducting less invasive gynecology surgery. She also focuses efforts on capacity building for women in engineering and clinical research with efforts in Ghana\, Rwanda\, and the USA. She has been recognized for her efforts with a University of Michigan Outstanding International Collaboration Award and as a STAT Wunderkind.  She will be presenting on her utilization of a human-centered design process from the needs assessment to validation testing. She will be using one of her devices and one of her simulation projects as an example.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Algebraic Geometry Seminar: Boundary combinatorics and topology of the Vakil--Zinger space
DESCRIPTION:The Vakil--Zinger space is a normal crossings compactification of the mapping space from smooth elliptic curves to projective space. In this talk\, I will discuss how the modular interpretation of the space given by Ranganathan--Santos-Parker--Wise leads to a description of its boundary stratification and a calculation of its cohomology. Partly joint work with Siddarth Kannan.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:DE Seminar: On ill-posedness for the dispersion-managed nonlinear Schrödinger equation
DESCRIPTION:The dispersion-managed nonlinear Schrödinger equation models the propagation of pulses through long-haul optical fibers\, where the dispersion profile—and hence the focusing or defocusing nature—varies periodically. When the dispersion oscillates rapidly\, this leads to the Gabitov–Turitsyn equation\, a nonlocal nonlinear Schrödinger equation obtained by evolving the nonlinearity under the linear flow and averaging in time.\n\nDespite substantial attention in physics and numerics\, rigorous results for this model are rare and the sharp well-posedness theory has remained largely unclear. In this talk\, we present recent results that identify a threshold for well-posedness\, below which contraction mapping arguments fail\, and a second\, distinct threshold below which norm inflation can be shown under suitable restrictions.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:WCEE Lecture. Ukraine’s War in Seven Lives: Writing a People-Centered History of the Present
DESCRIPTION:Since 2022\, the Russo-Ukrainian war has shaken the global order—and transformed countless individual lives. Drawing on years of personal correspondence\, interviews\, and diary entries\, historian Danielle Leavitt follows seven Ukrainians through the first year and a half of Russia’s war on Ukraine. Tracing how individuals navigate the challenges of conflict\, displacement\, and daily survival\, she bridges historical analysis and lived experience to reveal how the past and its stories shape the present. Told in staggering human detail that feels both palpable and resonant\, By the Second Spring offers a window into the human dimensions of war—where history\, memory\, and survival intersect every day. In this talk\, Leavitt tells the story of Ukraine’s war in seven lives and reflects on what it means to write a people-centered history of the present.\n   \n   Danielle Leavitt is a historian of modern Ukraine and the Soviet Union\, with a particular interest in Russian and Ukrainian relations\, human age\, generation\, and gender. Her work examines the function of generation and human age in Soviet history and works to insert the stories of underrepresented populations\, such as the elderly and women\, into consequential debates about stagnation\, cultural life\, Soviet collapse\, post-Soviet economic and political development\, and the Russo-Ukrainian war.\n\n   Dr. Leavitt’s first book\, *By the Second Spring: Seven Lives and One Year of the War in Ukraine* (2025\, FSG)\, charted the lives of seven Ukrainians through the first year of Russia’s war on Ukraine. Based on a unique set of online diaries\, Leavitt contextualized her seven subjects\, Ukrainian society\, and its predicaments for a wide audience\, introducing readers to a rigorous but accessible history of Ukraine\, the Soviet Union\, its collapse\, and Russia’s historical relationship with its neighbors.\n\nLeavitt received her PhD in History from Harvard University in 2023. From 2023-2025\, she was a postdoctoral fellow at the Harvard Ukrainian Research Institute.\n   \nIf there is anything we can do to make this event accessible to you\, please contact us at gosiak@umich.edu. Please be aware that advance notice is necessary as some accommodations may require more time for the university to arrange.
