SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Cosmo-Astro Seminar | The progenitor’s impact on globular cluster stellar stream models
DESCRIPTION:Dynamically cold stellar streams from globular cluster progenitors are important probes of the Milky Way’s dark matter\; their kinematic heating\, for example\, could help constrain the physical properties of dark matter subhalos. Direct N-body simulations are considered the ground truth\, but are often an impractical choice due to the computational expense. Particle-spray methods successfully produce stream models very quickly\, but are reliant on making certain approximations about escape physics. We have bridged the gap between these approaches with KRIOS\, a new basis-expansion N-body code. In this talk\, I will provide a high-level review of KRIOS’ technical details\, discuss preliminary results on streams from spinning progenitors\, and address the potential complementarity between KRIOS and the particle-spray distribution function developed here in Ann Arbor.

SUMMARY:Presentation:Fueling for endurance – from keto to carbs!
DESCRIPTION:Day: Tuesday\, May 5\, 2026\nTime:  7 pm to 8 pm\nLocation: U-M Chemistry Bldg.\, Room 1400\n\nDr. Burke is a sports dietitian with 45 years of experience in the education and counselling of elite athletes.  She worked at the Australian Institute of Sport for thirty years\, first as Head of Sports Nutrition and then as Chief of Nutrition Strategy and now serves as Chair in Sports Nutrition in the Mary MacKillop Institute of Health Research at Australian Catholic University in Melbourne.\n \nTalk Summary: Carbohydrates have powered endurance performance for a century—from early race-day sugar use to modern glycogen-loading and sports nutrition products. Yet the rise of ketogenic/LCHF approaches has sparked debate and confusion for athletes and coaches. This session cuts through the hype to explore what the evidence says\, why context matters\, and how to build a more nuanced\, “unifying” approach to fueling endurance performance.\n\nRegister at:  https://tinyurl.com/Louise-Burke

SUMMARY:Livestream / Virtual:Mind Matters: AI and Mental Health Risks
DESCRIPTION:From schools and workplaces to the phones in our pockets\, AI tools are everywhere. As more people use generative AI tools like ChatGPT\, Claude\, and others in their daily lives\, concerns are rising among mental health and technology researchers about how these tools can affect the way we think and feel—not necessarily for the better. \n\nJoin us as experts from the University of Michigan Department of Psychiatry and School of Information discuss the risks of using AI tools and chatbots when it comes to our mental health and wellbeing. They will break down how this technology can negatively impact our mental health\, what mental health workers are seeing with their patients in the real world\, and what we can all do to keep ourselves and our loved ones safe. By avoiding the pitfalls of these technologies\, we can prevent these tools from hijacking our attention in unproductive ways that hold us back from living our lives fully.\n\nThis event is brought to you in partnership with the Alumni Association of the University of Michigan.\n\nWebinar on May 5\, 7:00pm - 8:30pm\nRegister here: https://umich.zoom.us/webinar/register/WN_sYcOP0pkTz-kK99SnYbnEw#/registration\n\nSpeakers:\n1. Steve Taylor\, M.D.\, Professor of Psychiatry and Chair of the Department of Psychiatry\n2. Mallory Klaunig\, Ph.D.\, Clinical Assistant Professor of Psychiatry\n3. Kentaro Toyama\, Ph.D.\, Professor of Information\, School of Information\n\nModerator:\nKara Gavin\n\nA recording of this event will be uploaded to our YouTube playlist [https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLNxqP-XbH8BK6DnqAJ2s1OVvyjnRGcCpD].
