SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Colloquium: Geometry of Riemann surfaces through the lens of probability
DESCRIPTION:The goal of this talk is to showcase how we can use stochastic processes to study the geometry of surfaces. After recalling basic facts about surfaces with constant curvature\, their length spectrum\, and Brownian motion on them\, we use the Brownian loop measure to express the lengths of closed geodesics on a hyperbolic surface and zeta-regularized determinant of the Laplace-Beltrami operator. This gives a tool to study the length spectra of a hyperbolic surface and we obtain a new identity between the length spectrum of a compact surface and that of the same surface with an arbitrary number of additional cusps.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:EEB Thursday Seminar Series - Bur oak evolution and its impact on the forest
DESCRIPTION:Seminar Summary - The bur oak (Quercus macrocarpa) is a foundation of eastern North American forests and savannas. It is massive\, long-lived\, strong\, and enormously variable. But the bur oak is no lone wolf: it exchanges genes with other oak species from the Black Hills to Vermont\, and from northern Minnesota to Texas. This talk will provide an overview of ongoing rangewide and reciprocal transplant studies of bur oaks undertaken as part of a collaborative NSF - NSFC Dimensions of Biodiversity project\, “Consequences of diversity in Asian and American tree syngameons for functional variation\, adaptation and symbiont biodiversity.” It will present analyses of genomic\, trait\, mycorrhizal\, and gall wasp data to provide an integrative view of how bur oaks and their relatives shape the forest.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Gender: New Works\, New Questions — Health Care Civil Rights: How Discrimination Law Fails Patients
DESCRIPTION:Join the Institute for Research on Women & Gender (IRWG) for Gender: New Works\, New Questions\, a timely book talk and conversation featuring Anna Kirkland’s new book\, Health Care Civil Rights: How Discrimination Law Fails Patients. Bringing together scholars from diverse disciplines\, this discussion will examine how civil rights frameworks shape—and often limit—patients’ access to equitable healthcare\, with a particular focus on gender\, sexuality\, disability\, and race.\n\nIn conversation with Patrick Grzanka and Rafe Neis\, Kirkland will reflect on the book’s central arguments and the broader questions it raises for scholars of gender\, law\, history\, and social justice. Moderated by IRWG Director Melynda Price\, the panel will explore what new research on gender can teach us about the promises and pitfalls of legal remedies\, and how interdisciplinary approaches open new ways of thinking about care\, rights\, and responsibility.\n\n\nSpeakers:\nAnna Kirkland is the Kim Lane Scheppele Collegiate Professor of Women’s and Gender Studies and an Arthur F. Thurnau Professor at the University of Michigan. She is the author of Health Care Civil Rights: How Discrimination Law Fails Patients and is widely recognized for her scholarship at the intersection of health policy\, law\, and gender studies.\n\nPatrick Grzanka is University Diversity and Social Transformation Professor\; Professor of Women’s and Gender Studies\; and Professor of Psychology (by courtesy) at the University of Michigan. \n\nRafe Neis is Professor in the Department of History and the Frankel Center for Judaic Studies at the University of Michigan.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:The Invention of Rum in a Era of Revolution
DESCRIPTION:This talk\, building on Jordan’s 2025 book The Invention of Rum: Creating the Quintessential Atlantic Commodity\, will present a new story of how rum was invented\, made\, sold\, and consumed in the Atlantic world\, and how those developments intersected with the American Revolution. He will introduce the audience to a commodity that itself revolutionized the Atlantic world in large part due to its ubiquity and affordability. He will then home in on various moments in the lead-up\, course\, and aftermath of the American Revolution when the market for—and meanings embedded within—rum shaped the age of revolutions.
