SUMMARY:Careers / Jobs:Internship Lab
DESCRIPTION:*RSVP required to attend. Click \"Join Event\" here:https://umich.joinhandshake.com/edu/events/1894091Are you ready to start searching for a great internship? Do you have a few ideas\, but you’re not sure where to get started? Let's talk about search strategy!! Get real-time\, personalized support by checking out the in person Internship Lab. You’ll be guided by one of our Career Coaches who hasdesigned this experience to provide you strategies\, tools\, and motivation to get on the right track with searching for internships. Chat with folks from the University Career Center to explore Handshake\,the University Career Alumni Network (UCAN) and to learn about other tools you can use to build a great job/internship search strategy. **If you're not sure what you're interested in\, consider making an \"Exploring Major/Career Option\" appointment to get started clarifying your interests with a career coach in a 1-on-1 setting. Recent Grads: If you are an alumni\, you will not be able to access the link due the University’s policy of discontinuing alumni Zoom accounts 30 days after graduation. Please contact careercenter@umich.edu with the subject line“Recent Grad Help” to receive either a recording of the session or tobe set up with a 1:1. Include the name of the workshop/event in your email.#UCC

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.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:The Ehrhart h*-polynomials of positroid polytopes (combinatorics seminar)
DESCRIPTION:A positroid is a matroid realized by a matrix such that all maximal minors are non-negative. Positroid polytopes are matroid polytopes of positroids. In particular\, they are lattice polytopes. The Ehrhart polynomial of a lattice polytope counts the number of integer points in the dilation of that polytope. The Ehrhart series is the generating function of the Ehrhart polynomial\, which is a rational function with the numerator called the h^*-polynomial. We compute the h^*-polynomials of an arbitrary positroid polytope by a family of shelling orders of it. We also compute the h^*-polynomial of any positroid polytope with some facets removed\, and we relate it to the descents of permutations. Our result generalizes that of Early\, Kim\, and Li for hypersimplices.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:AIM Seminar:  Discrete Ricci Curvatures for Hypernetworks
DESCRIPTION:Abstract:  We present a brief overview of some notions of discrete curvatures for hypernetworks. In particular\, we focus on the adaptation of the Forman-Ricci curvature to the hypernetworks setting\, and its applications to genetic networks\, more specifically to the understanding of dynamics pluripotent stem cells and cancer cells. We next concentrate on Ollivier-Ricci curvature based hypernetworks curvatures\, and in particular on a newly proposed Ricci curvature for hypernetworks stemming from the generalized Wasserstein distance of Piccoli and Rossi and motivated\, again\, by biological networks.\n\nContact:  Indika Rajapakse

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Dr. Margaret Price\, Exploring the Politics of Disability\, Accompaniment\, and Collective Accountability
DESCRIPTION:In this talk\, Dr. Margaret Price (Professor of English and Director of the Disability Studies Program at The Ohio State University) argues for a turn toward collective accountability in order to make academe more accessible for all marginalized persons\, including those with disabilities. Drawing upon her award-winning books Mad at School and Crip Spacetime: Access\, Failure\, and Accountability in Academic Life\, Price shares findings based on a survey and interview study conducted with more than 300 disabled faculty and staff members. Their talk focuses particularly on the concept of “accompaniment\,” which refers to relations between humans\, objects\, technologies\, spaces\, and animals. She closes with a discussion of accountability and gathering\, emphasizing the need for collectivity in order to find more sustainable and restorative ways of moving together.\nBio: Dr. Margaret Price (she/they) is Professor of English (Writing\, Rhetoric & Literacy) at The Ohio State University\, where she also serves as Director of the Disability Studies Program. She is the author of the award-winning books Crip Spacetime (Duke University Press\, 2024) and Mad at School (University of Michigan Press\, 2011). In 2022\, they traveled to Gothenburg\, Sweden on a Fulbright Grant focusing on critical interpretations of universal design. Margaret is now at work on a project focused on cognitive disability\, gathering\, and collective access. Their personal website can be found at http://margaretprice.wordpress.com.We want to make our event accessible to all participants. CART services will be provided.
