SUMMARY:Presentation:Dr. Olga Morozova:  Extended-Release Buprenorphine (BUP-XR) for the Treatment of Opioid Dependence in the Context of the War in Ukraine
DESCRIPTION:Opioid agonist therapy (OAT) represents a critical intervention for reducing illicit opioid use and opioid-related mortality. Extended-release formulations of buprenorphine (BUP-XR) have demonstrated potential for enhancing treatment adherence and expanding access to care\; however\, findings from real-world implementation studies remain inconsistent. To date\, most evaluations of BUP-XR have been conducted in high-income settings.\n\nSince February 2022\, the full-scale war with Russia has placed individuals receiving OAT in Ukraine at substantial risk of treatment disruption due to displacement\, instability\, and interruptions in medication supply chains. In response to these challenges\, Ukrainian public health authorities secured a donation of BUP-XR (BuvidalⓇ) from the manufacturer\, Camurus AB (Sweden)\, and launched a pilot implementation program.\n\nDr. Morozova currently serves as a Multiple Principal Investigator (MPI) on a NIDA-funded study examining the impact of war-related trauma on HIV care engagement among individuals with a history of substance use disorders in Ukraine. She earned her Ph.D. in Epidemiology from the Yale School of Public Health and completed postdoctoral training in Biostatistics at Yale University. She also holds an M.S. in Mathematical Modeling in the Social Sciences and a B.S. in Applied Mathematics from the National University of Kyiv\, Ukraine.\n\nThis talk will report findings from a prospective\, multicenter\, open-label trial of monthly BUP-XR injections conducted across ten regions of Ukraine between February 2023 and August 2024. The results will be discussed within the broader context of wartime disruptions and adaptations in the national OAT program in Ukraine.\nThis event is co-sponsored by The Center for Russian\, East European and Eurasian Studies (CREES).

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:CJS Noon Lecture Series | Remembering the University of Michigan’s Wartime Japanese American Workers
DESCRIPTION:Please note: This lecture will be held in person in room 1010\, Weiser Hall\, and virtually on Zoom. The webinar is free and open to the public\, but registration is required. Once you've registered\, joining information will be sent to your email. Register for the Zoom webinar at https://myumi.ch/8qng5\n   \n   Between 1943 and 1945\, the University of Michigan hired hundreds of formerly-incarcerated Japanese Americans to work on campus – many as janitors\, cooks\, and hospital orderlies – even as it refused to enroll incarcerated Japanese American students. This lecture will delve into the long-forgotten history of how wartime labor shortages at U-M dovetailed with the federal government’s program to resettle incarcerated Japanese Americans away from the Pacific coast. The talk will also introduce the Yuzuru J. Takeshita Nikkei Workers Memorial Project\, a CJS initiative that has created a database and map of 401 formerly-incarcerated Japanese Americans who worked for the University of Michigan between 1943 and 1945.\n   \n   Brad Hammond is a doctoral student with the Van Hunnick History Department at the University of Southern California. His research focuses on the global and local politics of postwar Japanese corporate expansion into the United States and its intersections with U.S. urban history and Japanese American history. He is a contributing writer for the Tokyo-based Chiiki *zasshi tsukuda tsukishima* and serves on the board of the Little Tokyo Historical Society in Los Angeles\, California.\n\nThis lecture is cosponsored by the Bentley Historical Library. Learn more about the Bentley at https://bentley.umich.edu/\n\n*Accommodation: If there is anything we can do to make this event accessible to you\, please contact us at cjsevents@umich.edu. Please be aware that advance notice is necessary as some accommodations may require more time for the university to arrange.*

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:DCMB Tools and Technology Seminar by Mukai Wang
DESCRIPTION:Abstract\nMicrobiome differential abundance analysis remains a challenging problem despite multiple methods proposed in the literature. The excessive zeros and compositionality of metagenomics data are two main challenges for differential abundance analysis. We propose a novel method called “analysis of differential abundance by pooling Tobit models” (ADAPT) to overcome these two challenges. ADAPT uniquely treats zero counts as left-censored observations to facilitate computation and enhance interpretation. ADAPT also encompasses a theoretically justified way of selecting non-differentially abundant microbiome taxa as a reference for hypothesis testing. We generate synthetic data using independent simulation frameworks to show that ADAPT has more consistent false discovery rate control and higher statistical power than competitors. We use ADAPT to analyze 16S rRNA sequencing of saliva samples and shotgun metagenomics sequencing of plaque samples collected from infants in the COHRA2 study. The results provide novel insights into the association between the oral microbiome and early childhood dental caries.\n\nAbout the DCMB Tools & Technology Seminar Series\n\nThe DCMB Tools and Technology Seminar Series is held in Medical Science Building 1 (MS1)\, Room 4B700\, each Thursday at 12pm EST.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Entre Languages
DESCRIPTION:Please join us for a panel discussion exploring how language shapes identity\, belonging\, and everyday experiences in Latine communities. The panel\, co-sponsored by Language Matters and Puentes/Latine Research Week 2026\, will be led by outstanding student researchers from Linguistics\, the Combined Program in Education & Psychology\, Anthropology\, and Spanish & Romance Languages and Literatures.\n\nDuring the panel\, our speakers will address questions such as:\n\n    How do ideas about “not speaking enough Spanish” or speaking “correct” Spanish create hierarchies and divisions within Latine communities?\n    What does research tell us about the cognitive benefits of bilingualism for Latine children and adults?\n    What is one change we can make in our everyday lives to improve how language is discussed and valued in Latine communities?\n\nWhile this event centers on the experiences of Latines in the U.S.\, everyone is invited to attend\, listen\, and learn.
