In this presentation\, I will feature important findings from winter weather regime-based studies leveraging precipitation observations from a long-term\, ground-based instrument suite in the Northern Great Lakes region. Realistic estimates of rain and snowfall in weather forecasting and climate models are challenging due to uncertainties in cloud and precipitation parameterization schemes. Additionally\, remote-sensing observations require assumptions about hydrometeor microphysical and radiative properties. High temporal resolution\, multi-instrument observations of clouds and precipitation can help better constrain processes in models and refine retrieval assumptions\, leading to more accurate quantification of accumulation. I will highlight the advantage of utilizing long-term observations to examine key physical and dynamical precipitation processes through the lens of regime partitioning. Precipitation regimes are determined using observations of macrophysical and microphysical properties\, large-scale environmental conditions\, and thermodynamic profile characteristics. Key findings demonstrate that regime-dependent characteristics of precipitation lead to distinct differences in frequency\, intensity\, and phase\, microphysical properties\, and overall accumulation. Additionally\, I will demonstrate how winter precipitation regimes in the Northern Great Lakes region are tied to significant seasonal and subseasonal\, synoptic\, and thermodynamic conditions such as atmospheric blocking and anomalous moisture transport (atmospheric rivers).

Please indicate if you are registering for in-person attendance or for the livestream link\, which will be emailed to you prior to the event. Live-captioning will be provided for both formats.\n\nMilitary service is often left out of DEI conversations and yet\, like other protected class categories\, it holds a distinct identity: one that veterans and active military members must weigh against other identities that they hold and is often misunderstood. \n\nThe United States Military is the most diverse employer in the country and has led the way in expanding its meaning of servicemember to advance racial\, gender\, gender expression\, and sexual orientation boundaries decades before the civilian workforce. How have they embraced and leveraged this diversity to create effective units over time?\n\nPlease join the LSA DEI Office in a panel discussion with military-connected students\, faculty\, and staff from the University of Michigan as we talk about the inclusion of military service in our DEI campus initiatives.\n\nFor questions about this event\, or additional requests for accommodation\, please reach out to the LSA DEI Office at lsa-dei-office@umich.edu.

In this talk\, we discuss how the axion's compact field space leads to interesting interactions with topological defects\, specifically monopoles and strings. In the case of monopoles\, we show that\, due to the Witten effect\, axions interacting with abelian gauge fields generate a potential for the axion from loops of magnetic monopoles\, and discuss a simple phenomenological example where this potential is the dominant contribution to the axion mass. In the case of strings\, we discuss superconductivity from massless chiral excitations along the string. We show that bulk fermions do not need to become massless in the core of the string for there to be trapped massless excitations\, and explore the counterintuitive phase structure of these zero modes\, which become less localized to the string as the mass is increased.

Quinn\nWednesday\, February 7\, 2024\n1:00 - 2:00 p.m. ET\nFree\, registration required to obtain login information\n\nEvent link:\nhttps://positiveorgs.bus.umich.edu/events/jerks-die-alone-how-to-create-new-worlds-now/\n\nPositive Links:\nThe Positive Links Speaker Series\, presented by Michigan Ross’ Center for Positive Organizations\, offers inspiring and practical science-based strategies to build and bolster thriving organizations. Attendees learn from leading positive organizational scholars and connect with our community of academics\, students\, staff\, and leaders.\n\nAbout the talk:\nFear is an emotion. So is loneliness. The dread of social isolation is ever with us. It can influence imagination and logic\, producing strategies that result in increased loneliness and spiraling patterns of social decay. In organizations\, people at every level live in fear. Apprehensive authority figures use rational persuasion to call distrusting employees to optimal performance. The result is increased anxiety\, inauthenticity\, silos of self-interest\, and spiraling patterns of corporate decay. In 2019 Anjan Thakor and I published a book called The Economics of Higher Purpose. Since that time\, we have participated in many conversations with people trying to create organizations of optimal performance. In this presentation\, I will draw from science\, and from the most sacred moments in these conversations regarding higher purpose. I will share a set of micro-messages designed to infuse you with increased positivity\, increased consciousness\, and increased courage. My hope is to improve how you live and how you die.\n\nStudent Watch Party: Watch this streamed session together with other students for an in-person community experience followed by a structured discussion about how to put insights from Positive Links into practice. Registration for the Student Watch Party is included as an option when registering for this session of Positive Links.\n\nAbout Quinn:\nRobert E. Quinn is the Margaret Elliot Tracy Collegiate Professor Emeritus at the University of Michigan\, Ross School of Business. His work focuses on purpose\, leadership\, culture\, and change. He is one of the co-founders of the field of Positive Organizational Scholarship and of the Center for Positive Organizations. He has published extensively and loves teaching. He has 45 years of experience in helping organizations to change.\n\nHost:\nMonica Worline\, Faculty Director of Engaged Learning and Innovation\, Center for Positive Organizations\n\nPositive Links Speaker Series Sponsors:\nThe Center for Positive Organizations thanks Sanger Leadership Center\, Tauber Institute for Global Operations\, and Samuel Zell & Robert H.

In this talk\, I will propose a new \"temperature inversion\" (TI) estimator to detect this effect. I will show that the estimator is unbiased to foregrounds (CIB\, tSZ\, kSZ). This is a big advantage over the traditional “quadratic estimator” for the patchy screening which is biased by foregrounds and CMB lensing. I will then present the first detection of the patchy screening effect through cross-correlation of the Atacama Cosmology Telescope and Planck satellite CMB data\, and unWISE galaxies. This measurement\, exceeding 7-sigma in significance\, directly probes the distribution of electrons around these galaxies. I will discuss the prospects of this technique to constrain galaxy evolution models. Finally\, I will present a vision for some of the exciting science opportunities to come in the coming decade.

This thermal origin implies an interaction between DM and Standard Model (SM) particles\, and thus the rich possibility that it may be produced via accelerated beams. \n\nDespite a broad program of LHC searches for DM candidates above the GeV scale\, important blind spots remain for beyond-the-SM particles with compressed mass spectra: a generic feature of many of the simplest DM models. I will discuss how the CMS Experiment is enabling new searches in this space through the reconstruction of ultra-low-energy leptons\, and how new paradigms for real-time data analysis will open even greater possibilities for Dark Sector searches at the HL-LHC. Lastly I will introduce the capabilities and plans of the Light Dark Matter eXperiment (LDMX)\, a electron beam fixed-target setup at SLAC\, that will test key benchmarks of sub-GeV DM by leveraging LHC technologies.

For these applications\, the plasma is typically generated by injecting an energetic e-beam into a low pressure gas along an applied magnetic field. The B-field helps confine the e-beam propagating through the reactor. An applied electric field across the B-field enables control of the ion flux to the substrate (wafer) at the periphery of the plasma. The ability of e-beam plasma sources with crossed electric and magnetic (ExB) fields to selectively produce ions and reactive species with a uniform flux of low energy particles to the wafer makes them at-tractive for low damage processing of materials. Since e-beams efficiently ionize molecular gases at sub-mTorr pressures\, they were recently proposed for airbreathing plasma thrusters at very Low Earth Orbits (70-200 km). In this talk\, I will review concepts for e-beam generated LTP systems and their applications. I will outline key plasma processes\, including plasma generation\, cross-field diffusion and beam-plasma interactions. I will discuss challenges in control of characteristic instabilities\, fluxes and energy distribution functions of electrons and ions in e-beam generated ExB plasmas. \n\nAbout the Speaker:\nYevgeny Raitses is a Principal Research Physicist at the Princeton Plasma Physics Laboratory (PPPL) with expertise in experimental plasma physics. His more than 200 publications are on physics of crossed-field plasma devices\, plasma-surface interactions\, low temperature plasma and its applications to synthesis and processing of nanomaterials\, and plasma diagnostics. Raitses received his PhD in Aerospace Engineering from Technion-Israel Institute of Technology in 1997. He joined PPPL in 1998. His current research interests include e-beam generated magnetized plasmas\, advanced plasma propulsion\, and plasma diagnostics for semiconductor manufacturing. Dr. Raitses leads several projects and initiatives at PPPL including the DOE-Princeton Collaborative Low Temperature Plasma Research Facility (PCRF\, http://pcrf.pppl.gov)\, advanced plasma propulsion physics (http://htx.pppl.gov)\, plasma-based nanosynthesis and nanofabrication of materials (http://nano.pppl.gov). Raitses is an associate fellow of the American Institute of Aeronautics and Astronauts and Fellow of the American Physical Society. Among many honors\, Raitses received PPPL’s Kaul Foundation Prize for Excellence in Plasma Physics Research and Technology Development in 2019.\n\nThis is a hybrid event.

In this talk\, we export this into algebraic geometry by proving an analogous claim in the non-A^1-invariant stable motivic homotopy theory of Annala-Hoyois-Iwasa. Besides recovering many Poincaré duality type results\, it has quite interesting consequences for the behavior of the A^1-colocalization functor R. Namely\, R is a way of turning a cohomology theory into an A^1-invariant one without changing the on smooth projective varieties. Using this observation\, we can prove the independence of logarithmic cohomology groups from the choice of good compactification\, and that certain cohomology groups are birational invariants.

Sleep is homeostatically regulated where the duration of wakefulness drives subsequent sleep. Here we aim to determine how waking experience is sensed to trigger sleep and how sleep restores the brain? How does the circadian clock interact with the sleep homeostat? How does impaired sleep lead to human diseases such as Alzheimer’s disease. Our work makes widespread use of -omics approaches including for the identification of diagnostic biomarkers in human sleep disruption.\n\nShort Bio:\nRavi Allada is the Edward C. Stuntz Distinguished Professor of Neuroscience and Chair of the Department of Neurobiology at Northwestern University. Dr. Allada received his M.D from the University of Michigan and completed a residency in Clinical Pathology at the Brigham and Women’s Hospital. During his training\, he was an HHMI-NIH Research Scholar and an HHMI Physician Postdoctoral Fellow\, the latter with 2017 Nobel Laureate Michael Rosbash. The Allada laboratory has discovered molecule “gears” of the core circadian clock including a link to neurodegenerative disease as well as pathways linking the core clock to daily rhythms of sleep and wake.

Sleep is homeostatically regulated where the duration of wakefulness drives subsequent sleep. Here we aim to determine how waking experience is sensed to trigger sleep and how sleep restores the brain? How does the circadian clock interact with the sleep homeostat? How does impaired sleep lead to human diseases such as Alzheimer’s disease. Our work makes widespread use of -omics approaches including for the identification of diagnostic biomarkers in human sleep disruption.\n\nShort Bio:\nRavi Allada is the Edward C. Stuntz Distinguished Professor of Neuroscience and Chair of the Department of Neurobiology at Northwestern University. Dr. Allada received his M.D from the University of Michigan and completed a residency in Clinical Pathology at the Brigham and Women’s Hospital. During his training\, he was an HHMI-NIH Research Scholar and an HHMI Physician Postdoctoral Fellow\, the latter with 2017 Nobel Laureate Michael Rosbash. The Allada laboratory has discovered molecule “gears” of the core circadian clock including a link to neurodegenerative disease as well as pathways linking the core clock to daily rhythms of sleep and wake. His laboratory has also identified molecular processes underlying sleep including those linked to memory processing. His work extends discoveries in flies to mammals including the development of diagnostic biomarker signatures for circadian time and examining the effects of jet lag on athletic performance.

We see it in the media we consume\, our education\, in laws and policies\, and the everyday treatment of the Black community. Through time the community may even internalize these messages and believe them as fact. But through education\, community\, and storytelling we can still find joy and inspire change. \nThis program is meant to uplift the broader Black community by celebrating the student talent we have on campus\, with special acknowledgement of Black women and the intersectionality of their racial and gendered experiences. We hope that attendees are able to engage with the community and be inspired to progress towards healing and liberation. \nJoin Trotter Multicultural Center and the DEI Office in the School of Music\, Theater\, and Dance for a powerful and uplifting afternoon of student performances celebrating Black art\, culture\, and experiences. We will have a special guest\, composer Nkeiru Okoye\, that attendees will be able to mingle with in anticipation of her World Premiere of “When the Caged Bird Sings.” Heavy appetizers will be provided.

Born and raised on the Midwestern plains\, Carlisle is a product of the punk-to-folk music pipeline that's long fueled frustrated young men looking to resist. After falling for the rich ballads and tunes of the Ozarks\, where he now lives\, he began examining the full spectrum of American musical history. This insatiable stylistic diversity is obvious in his wildly raucous live performances\, where songs range from sardonic trucker-ballads like \"Vanlife\" to the heartbreaking queer waltz \"Life on the Fence\,\" to an existential talkin' blues about a panic attack in Walmart's aisle five. With guitar\, fiddle\, button-box\, banjo\, harmonicas\, rhythm-bones\, and Willi's booming baritone\, this is bona-fide populist folk music in the tradition of cowboys\, frontier fiddlers\, and tall-tale tellers. With a quick wit and big sing-alongs\, these folk songs bring us a step closer to breaking down our divides.\n\nPlease visit https://mutotix.umich.edu/4515/4516 for more detail.

Modernist Glass from the Polish Past DESCRIPTION:The glass in this rare collection represents the work of renowned Polish glass artists and designers created between 1960 and 1980. Known as Polskie szkło artystyczne (Polish art glass)\, the works were produced in glass factories in southern Poland and are a feature of many homes throughout Central Europe. The glass masters were trained in schools of art and design and many achieved international fame during their lifetimes. \n\nThe collectors\, Endi Poskovic and his wife Julie Anne Visco\, began acquiring the glass in 2015-16 while Endi was a Fulbright Scholar and Visiting Professor at the Jan Matejko Academy of Fine Arts in Kraków. Scouring flea markets\, antique shops\, and websites\, they continue to acquire pieces and build the collection to this day. We are grateful to them for making this remarkable exhibit possible at CCPS and WCEE.\n\nOrganized by the Copernicus Center for Polish Studies\, this exhibition is co-sponsored by the Penny W. Stamps School of Art & Design and Weiser Center for Europe and Eurasia.\n\nLearn more about the exhibition and the artists at https://myumi.ch/8eVrM\n\nThe exhibit opens on September 15\, 2023 in 1010 Weiser Hall\, 500 Church Street\, Ann Arbor.

Pinto (School of Social Work) invites audiences to take part in an exhibition that examines his embodied gender states based on his intersecting childhood traumas and life experiences. In \"My Gender States\,\" Pinto shares his deep and abiding grief related to the childhood death of his sister and the subsequent gender embodiments that ensued stemming from the belief that he was his deceased sister. \n\nUsing autoethnography\, Pinto created a one-person play (\"Marília\,\" 2015) and site-specific installation performance (\"The Realm of the Dead\,\" 2022). These works explore the intersecting and shaping layers of childhood traumas\, gender states\, and his life experience—a story of the struggles\, fears\, and accomplishments he experienced as an immigrant to the United States. In \"Realm\,\" audiences circulated around 25 assemblage sculptures created from vintage suitcases and trunks that evoked the cemetery where Pinto’s sister was buried and the literal and figurative baggage that he\, a queer immigrant\, carried with him. \"My Gender States\" is a selection of materials\, images\, and texts from \"Marília\" and \"Realm\" curated to more closely examine the themes of gender and sexuality in these works. Collected are portrayals of Pinto’s gender states\, gender confusion\, gender embodiments\, gender doubt\, and reactions to gender stigma. \n\nRogério M. Pinto (Brazilian\, American\, b. 1965\, Belo Horizonte\, Brazil) is a University Diversity Social Transformation Professor\; Berit Ingersoll-Dayton Collegiate Professor of Social Work\; and Professor of Theatre and Drama\, School of Music\, Theatre & Dance\, at the University of Michigan. Pinto uses art-based methods to conduct community-engaged research in the United States and Brazil.\n\nThe photographs used in \"My Gender States\" are by Emerson Granillo (American\, b. 1987)\; David Newton (American\, b. 1993)\; and Nicholas Williams (American\, b. 1994). The \"Realm\" assemblages featured in \"My Gender States\" were conceived by Pinto and designed by him\, in collaboration with Sarah Tanner. \n\n\"My Gender States\" is on display in the Lane Hall Exhibit Space (first floor\, 204 S State St) from January 23\, to August 13\, 2024. The exhibit is free and open to the public\, M-F\, 9am-4pm.\n\nHosted by the Institute for Research on Women and Gender and the Women’s and Gender Studies Department.

Unlike previous U-M Library exhibits that focused on the artist at work\, this display shows him in informal and familial environments\, revealing a depth and complexity of character that are often overshadowed by his fame and professional achievements. The photographs and documents displayed showcase a variety of emotional tones — warmth\, humor\, tenderness\, and passion. Candid and relaxed more than posed\, they are similar to most people's pictures in old family albums.\n\nCulled from the Orson Welles-Beatrice Welles materials that are part of the Mavericks & Makers collection within the U-M Library’s Special Collections Research Center\, each photo or letter tells a story of a connection Welles held dearly. The materials included are from two periods: the late 1920s and early 1930s\, when Welles was a teenager\, and the mid-1950s to early 1960s\, during the early years of his marriage to his third wife\, Paola Mori. \n\nIt should be noted that Welles’s personal life was messy at best. Other collections housed at U-M that include personal materials related to Welles document his first and second marriages\, including the Welles-Feder Collection and the Wilson-Welles Collection. The items on display here were saved by his third and final child\, Beatrice Welles\, and reflect her childhood memories of her parents.\n\nThe exhibit is available during Hatcher Gallery Exhibit Room hours (https://umlib.us/hatchergalleryexhibits).

Whether designing furniture or developing the ideas for sculpture\, the process has always been the same. Ideas begin as\nscribbled images that are then stretched and refined with CAD software. At its core\, much of the work studies the manipulation of simple geometry. Dunn looks at the form from different forced perspectives – exploding\, augmenting\, slicing\, repeating\, and lighting. This body of work is a study of perception\, sympathy\, hierarchy\, and reality. The “We Are Virus” series is an adaptation from an initial design where it continued to evolve and adapt through manipulation of parts and scale.\n\nPeter Dunn received his BFA from Wayne State University and MFA from University of Michigan.

His new work—created for his exhibition at the Institute for the Humanities Gallery—is personal and abstract. Started as an attempt to paint for himself\, away from the center of things and off at the edges\, they are from the spaces of private thought that slip into existence and just as easily slip away. They come from an internal conversation and contact with the world. \"When I am with them\,\" Riley explains\, \"I feel a tension between the spaces in the works being present but unnamed. The paintings allow me to observe myself looking. I am acutely aware of time. Maybe they are an invitation to speculate.\" UID:116414-21836783@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/116414 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Art,Black History Month,Exhibition,Humanities,Visual Arts LOCATION:202 S.

The works on view in this exhibition\, all brought into the Museum between 2019 and the present\, shows how institutions like UMMA are becoming more permeable to societal challenges\, and more nimble in responding to them in service to all in their communities. In this exhibition you will find works that reflect on how global migrations\, race\, gender\, and ecological change shape the way we engage with the world and inform our visions for the future.\n \nThis collection of artistic engagements with issues give us tools to envision who we want to be as individuals\, as a museum\, and as a society\, connected to one another across space and experience.\n \nSo gather here to take in these latest works of art brought here for you. Gather here to be engulfed in their forms and meanings\, to discuss their takes\, to learn\, to disagree. Gather to relax\, make a friend\, drink a coffee\, finish the daily Wordle.

Written across the walls above and around the memorial\, a statement proclaims Anishinaabe rights to the land we stand on: “You are on Anishinaabe Land.”  \n \nPresented alongside are paintings of imagined decolonized landscapes and a symbolic cache of provisions. Future Cache implicitly asks those who have benefited from the legacies of colonization to consider where they stand and where to go from here and seeks to foster a sense of belonging for displaced Indigenous peoples fighting for restitution.\n\nSpecial thanks to the Cheboiganing (Burt Lake) Band of Ottawa and Chippewa Indians\, Margaret Noodin\, and Richard A.

DESCRIPTION:Care in Uncertain Times\n \nAs crises of public health\, economic instability\, authoritarian regimes\, racial injustice\, and climate change spread around the globe\, millions are experiencing distress\, conflict\, uncertainty\, and vulnerability. This troubling combination of experiences is nothing new for Cambodians. Between 1975-1979\, when the Khmer Rouge ruled Cambodia\, about a quarter of the country’s populations died of infectious diseases\, weapon wounds\, and malnutrition.\n \nThis exhibition brings together more than 80 works of art spanning a millennium to present how the visual culture of Cambodia and its diaspora has evolved in the face of cultural upheaval. Showcasing works from worldwide collections\, including those from some of the foremost members of the Cambodian contemporary art scene\, Angkor Complex allows viewers to encounter the still-fresh scars of a genocide and critically appreciate the strategies evolved to nurture resilience in trying times.\n\nLead support for this exhibition is provided by the U-M Office of the Provost\, U-M Office of the President\, National Endowment for the Arts\, Michigan Arts and Culture Council\, Eleanor Noyes Crumpacker Endowment Fund\, and U-M Ross School of Business.\n  UID:114750-21833420@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/114750 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Art,Culture,Exhibition,Museum,Public Health,UMMA LOCATION:Museum of Art - A.

How have their perspectives shaped the enduring stories of our history and visions of the past?\n \nYou’re Welcome is a three-part installation and dynamic intervention that exposes the histories and narratives of the land occupied by the University of Michigan and UMMA’s neoclassical building\, Alumni Memorial Hall. A large-scale commission from artist Cannupa Hanska Luger on the exterior of UMMA’s building asks the campus and community to reconsider the memories molded into the Museum’s stone — the perspectives that shaped those traditions and the stories that remain unseen in our facade. This artistic interrogation dissects colonialist norms of monument-making\, explores the roles of buildings in upholding selected cultural systems\, and develops new forms of memorials that center Indigenous perspectives and collaboration to tell fuller stories and histories. \n \nLuger communicates stories of 21st-century Indigeneity\, sovereignty\, and anti-colonialism while offering critical cultural analysis through deep engagements with materials\, environments\, and communities. In addition to the exterior commission\, a gallery exhibition places Luger’s works of art in conversation with objects in UMMA’s collection\, allowing for discussion and thinking on long histories of collecting practices\, environmental degradation\, and the afterlife of colonialism. And\, a monument classroom from nonprofit public art and history studio Monument Lab invites the community to come together and examine how historic structures on the University of Michigan’s campus uphold social and cultural systems and narratives.  \n\nLead support for this project is provided by Teiger Foundation\, the U-M Office of the Provost\, the U-M Office of the President\, Erica Gervais Pappendick and Ted Pappendick\, the U-M Marsal Family School of Education\, the U-M Institute for the Humanities\, Michigan Humanities\, and the U-M Arts Initiative.

Collected for each course are objects that address the nature of materiality\, time\, and human interaction in relation to our environments\, our wars\, our relationships\, and our eccentricities. \n \nWorking in collaboration with University faculty\, the works in this exhibition were selected for their capacity to provoke engagement with the guiding questions and themes of their specific courses\, while also offering students inspiration for research and art projects in their areas of study. The exhibition demonstrates some of the diverse and creative ways art plays a central role in learning across the disciplines. It also asks us to consider what we can learn from art objects across an infinite variety of specialties and subject matter.\n \nAs classes begin in Fall of 2021\, you’ll be able to use these pages to explore the collections designed for each course\, dive into the works themselves\, and hear from the professors and students about how they are engaging with art and objects in new ways.

Choices about which artists you see in our galleries\, choices about what relevant facts we share about the works\, and choices about what - out of an infinite number of options - we don’t say about them.\n \nPieces in this exhibition were made at a time when the world came to be shaped by the ideologies of colonial expansion and Western domination. And yet\, that history and the stories of those marginalized do not readily appear in the still lives and portraits on display here. By grappling with what is visible and what remains hidden\, we are forced to examine whose stories and histories are prioritized and why.  \n \nIn this online exhibition\, you can explore our efforts to deeply question the Museum’s collection and our own past complicity in favoring colonial voices. In the Museum gallery\, which will open in early 2021\, you’ll be able to experience the changes we’re making to the physical space to highlight a more honest version of European and American history. \n \nBy challenging our own practice\, and continuing to add to what we know and what we write about the works we display\, UMMA tells a more complex and more complete story of this nation - one that unsettles\, and fails to settle for\, simple narratives. \n \n“Invisible things are not necessarily ‘not there’.... Certain absences are so stressed\, so ornate\, so planned\, they call attention to themselves\; arrest us with intentionality and purpose\, like neighborhoods that are defined by the population held away from them.” \n \n— Toni Morrison\n\nLead support for Unsettling Histories: Legacies of Slavery and Colonialism is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost\, the U-M Arts Initiative\, and the Susan and Richard Gutow Endowed Fund.\n  UID:84303-21621203@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/84303 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Art,European,Exhibition,History,Museum,UMMA LOCATION:Museum of Art - European and American Decorative Art CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20240202T161446 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20240208T103000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20240208T120000 SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Change it Up!

A Zoom option is also provided.\n\nSeminar Description:\n\nOptically active and highly coherent emitters in solids are a promising platform for a wide variety of quantum information applications\, particularly quantum memory and other quantum networking tasks. Rare-earth atoms\, in addition to having record long coherence times\, have the added benefit that they can be hosted in a wide range of solid-state materials. We can thus target particular materials (and choose particular rare-earth species and isotopes) that enable certain application-specific functionalities. I will give an overview of this promising field and discuss several ongoing projects with rare-earth atoms in different host materials and configurations. This includes efforts to identify and grow new materials with rare-earth atoms at stoichiometric concentrations in order to reduce disorder-induced inhomogeneous broadening\, as well as photonic integration of rare-earth doped samples to increase the light-atom interaction for practical quantum devices.

This talk will be recorded for later viewing.\n\nAbstract: The goal of the field of topological data analysis (TDA) is to quantitatively encode and measure shape in data using Algebraic Topology. The available tools encompass both algebraic constructions (such as persistence diagrams and Euler characteristics) as well as graph based representations (such as Reeb graphs\, mapper graphs\, and merge trees). Applications of TDA have exploded in recent years\, finding use in a diverse array of domains including plant biology\, neuroscience\, mechanical engineering\, and many more. This increased interest is due to its now extensive theoretical foundation\, and more recently due to the increased availability of more efficient algorithms and software making TDA pipelines more readily accessible to domain scientists. In this talk\, we will review some of the tools available with a particular focus on encoding embedded shapes in d-dimensional Euclidean space (with most of our applications living in the setting of d=2 or 3)\, and for creating metrics between these representations to allow for access to tools such as statistics and machine learning.\n\nBio: Elizabeth Munch is an Associate Professor at Michigan State University with a primary appointment in the Department of Computational Mathematics\, Science\, and Engineering and a secondary appointment in the Department of Mathematics. Her research specializes in Applied Topology and Topological Data Analysis. Liz received her PhD from the Department of Mathematics at Duke University in May 2013. Prior to joining the faculty of Michigan State University\, she was an Assistant Professor in the Department of Mathematics and Statistics at the University at Albany - SUNY\, and a Postdoctoral Fellow at the Institute for Mathematics and its Applications at the University of Minnesota for the 2013-2014 thematic year on applications of topology.

Meghan McCormick and Jason Sachs have been key leaders of a longstanding partnership between researchers (from MDRC\, Harvard Graduate School of Education\, and the University of MIchigan) and the Boston Public Schools. During this time\, they have conducted numerous studies of educational policies and programs. In the fall of 2023\, McCormick and Sachs transitioned from their roles as a researcher and practitioner (respectively) to new positions at the Overdeck Family Foundation and Gates Foundation. The Overdeck Family Foundation is an education funder focused on birth through grade 9. In her new role\, McCormick leads the foundation’s investments in research and evaluation. The Early Learning Solutions program at the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation is focused on providing solutions that help prekindergarten teachers better understand and nurture a child’s learning and development. In Sach’s new role\, he serves as the Deputy Director of Early Learning for the U.S. programs. In this presentation\, Drs. McCormick and Sachs will discuss how their experiences as a researcher and practitioner working in partnership have prepared them for this new role at a foundation. They will also share opportunities they see to use research and evaluation to make a positive impact on education policy and how these opportunities vary across roles.

One of the main factors affecting biodiversity patterns of mammals is the change and fragmentation as a function of anthropogenic disturbance. For this talk about the various approaches\, we have used to improve the understanding of mammal biodiversity patterns with different foci ranging from populations\, communities\, landscapes\, to biogeographical scales. Our approach includes research based on fieldwork\, scientific museum collections\, and statistical and spatial modeling. Biodiversity patterns vary by scale and various scales have specific effects for different species. I will discuss some results from studies in tropical systems and in urban habitats. As a result of our research\, we have found that: 1. The basic natural history and ecology for most of the mammalian fauna is still poor (even for common urban species)\; 2. Generalist mammalian species tend to benefit from disturbance\; however\, not all generalists are the same and these vary within and between habitats\; 3. Habitat edges are important for local biodiversity patterns\; 4. Various types of models and approaches have pros and cons to identify sites important for conservation and or connectivity in poorly studied systems. The need for more fieldwork at different temporal and spatial scales is evident and thus emphasises the importance of field- and museum based research. \n\nWebsite: http://www.noedelasancha.com UID:117462-21839348@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/117462 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:AEM Featured,Basic Science,Biology,Biosciences,Bsbsigns,department of ecology and evolutionary biology,ecology,Ecology & Biology,Ecology And Evolutionary Biology,eeb LOCATION:Biological Sciences Building - 1010 CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20240223T123240 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20240208T150000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20240208T160000 SUMMARY:Careers / Jobs:Innovations at Roblox DESCRIPTION:Join us for our Innovations at Roblox Showcase!

However\, despite the benefits of these imaging modalities\, there is a critical need to develop new and improved technologies that can monitor changes and abnormalities at the cellular\, molecular\, and functional levels. Our research lab is at the forefront of the discipline of Molecular Imaging\, which is a promising field positioned in the intersection of biomedical research and molecular biology. We focus on creating\, implementing\, and developing cutting-edge protein engineering techniques to produce genetically encoded tools for Molecular Imaging. In this presentation\, we will discuss our latest research findings and their contribution to Molecular Imaging.\n\nWe will discuss the development of synthetic and semi-synthetic proteins that can generate contrast through Chemical Exchange Saturation Transfer (CEST)-MRI. We have recently developed new types of proteins that can be efficiently detected through MRI. To achieve this\, we designed a novel machine-learning algorithm based on genetic programming\, that has allowed us to broaden the search space of peptides that can produce CEST MRI contrast. We have then assembled these peptides into a functional protein that can be used as a reporter to track therapeutic cells and gene delivery vehicles in live systems. We are constantly expanding our arsenal of such reporters by seeking and recombining proteins from various organisms. For example\, we are evolving proteins and peptides that bind the lanthanide gadolinium to enhance imaging sensitivity as well as for cleaning medical waste. Another example discussed is a magneto-receptive gene cloned from the glass catfish (Kryptopterus vitreolus). This gene can function as a \"biomagnetic switch\" and can remotely control the activity of enzymes transduced in cells. Inspired by unique mechanisms found in marine organisms\, we aim to develop the next generation of genetically encoded technologies to tackle urgent problems in the biomedical field.\n\nBio:\nAssaf A.

Yet little is yet known for certain about these near-primordial young stellar populations\, beyond a range of clues that suggest they were likely profoundly different from their well-studied counterparts in the Milky Way. At long last\, JWST is now allowing us to directly view and begin to piece together the story of the first epochs of star formation and galaxy assembly. I will describe the surprising picture emerging from spectroscopy of these earliest glimpses of galaxies\, including a high incidence of hard ionizing radiation fields and a complex interplay between rapidly-assembling massive black holes and dense highly-clustered star formation deep into the epoch of reionization. Much remains ambiguous in these early spectra\, and I will discuss how detailed observations in the local Universe of metal-poor dwarf galaxies both resolved and unresolved are shedding key light on these high-redshift observations. Finally\, I will outline how facilities coming online in the coming years will simultaneously revolutionize our view of both stellar populations at low metallicity and the first galaxies\; from uncovering the most pristine relics of these earliest times on our cosmic doorstep to resolving galaxies at cosmic dawn into individual clusters and star forming regions.

In this talk\, I will discuss my group’s efforts to enhance the catalytic activity and physical properties of porous materials to meet rising global challenges in clean energy and sustainability. The first half will focus on the synthesis of electrically conductive metal–organic materials. As sources of renewable electricity become increasingly abundant\, new porous architectures that can directly interface with electrical energy are needed. I will detail our efforts to apply structural motifs commonly observed in conjugated carbon nanomaterials to the construction of new 0D\, 1D\, and 2D conjugated metal–organic nanostructures. The second half of the talk will focus on pushing the frontiers of single-site heterogeneous catalysis design.

Central to my work is a critique of the simultaneous technological and social systems we’re building around ourselves. What are the rules\, what happens when we introduce glitches? I invite participants. To remote control my dates. To be followed. To welcome me in as their human smart home. To attend a party hosted by artificial intelligence. In these interactions\, there is a reciprocal risk taking and vulnerability\, as performer and audience are both challenged to relinquish control\, both implicated. We must formulate our own opinions about the systems that govern our lives. We begin to notice their effects play out on our identity\, relationships\, and society. Each work feels like an attempt to hack my way out of myself and into closeness with others. I am embodying machines\, trying to understand that distance between the algorithm and myself\, the distance between others and me. There’s humor in the breakdown\, and also moments of clarity. Who builds these artificial systems\, what values do they embody? Who is prioritized and who is targeted as race\, gender\, disability\, and class are programmatically encoded? Where are the boundaries around our intimate spaces? In the midst of always on networked interfaces\, what does it mean to be truly present?”\n\n“What do you want me to say?” invites the audience to explore these questions together. The presentation will be followed by an audience Q&A\, moderated by Jeff Nagy.\n\n\nLauren Lee McCarthy (she/they) is an artist examining social relationships in the midst of surveillance\, automation\, and algorithmic living. She is a Creative Capital Awardee\, United States Artists Fellow\, LACMA Art+Tech Lab Grantee\, and has been awarded fellowships and residencies from Sundance\, Eyebeam\, MacDowell\, Pioneer Works\, and Ars Electronica. Her work SOMEONE was awarded the Ars Electronica Golden Nica and the Japan Media Arts Social Impact Award\, and her work LAUREN was awarded the IDFA DocLab Award for Immersive Non-Fiction. Lauren's work has been exhibited internationally\, including the Barbican Centre\, Haus der elektronischen Künste\, SIGGRAPH\, Onassis Cultural Center\, IDFA DocLab\, Science Gallery Dublin\, and Seoul Museum of Art. She holds an MFA from UCLA and a BS Computer Science and BS Art and Design from MIT. She is the creator of p5.js\, an open source programming language for learning creative expression through code online with over 10 million users worldwide.

Unusually for him\, the purchase was not made with an established antiquarian or collector but with a construction worker that he had been introduced to by an employee of the hotel in which he was staying. The fragments were later identified as belonging to a monument built by the Flavians on the Quirinal. It was then realized that one of the Kelsey pieces joined with one in the Museo Nazionale Romano. The connection was studied in detail by Elaine Gazda and Rita Paris and resulted in exhibitions held in Rome and Ann Arbor. As the circumstances of the finding were clarified\, it became apparent that all the pieces had been stolen from a construction site on the Quirinal. \n\nAs part of a broader review of the ethics of the Kelsey collections (which does not always overlap with their legality)\, the option of repatriation for the Flavian fragments started being internally discussed. The Kelsey spontaneously approached the Direzione Generale Musei at the Ministero della Cultura in Italy to explore the possibility of reuniting the fragments\, perhaps as part of the new overhaul of the Museo Nazionale Romano that is scheduled to begin in 2024. The talk reports on the background and the current status of the process.\n\nNicola (Nic) Terrenato has served as the director of the Gabii Project since 2007 and co-director of the Sant’Omobono Project since 2008. His research interests include the archaeology and architecture of Republican Rome\, early state formation\, Roman imperialism\, and archaeological survey. \n\nThis event will take place in Room 125 of the Kelsey Museum’s Newberry Hall. Light refreshments and food will be provided before the lecture\, which will begin at 6 PM. \n\nFAST (Field Archaeology Series on Thursday) lectures are free and open to the public.

After studying composition\, music theory\, piano\, conducting\, and Africana Studies at Oberlin Conservatory\, she pursued graduate studies at Rutgers University and became one of the leading African American women composers. An activist through the arts\, Okoye creates a body of work that welcomes and affirms both traditional and new audiences.\n\nNkeiru Okoye’s new commission When the Caged Bird Sings premieres on Saturday\, February 10\, 2024 at 7:30 PM at UM’s Hill Auditorium\, as a collaboration between UMS and the U-M School of Music\, Theatre & Dance. When the Caged Bird Sings fuses elements of oratorio\, theater\, and opera in a multi-movement musical ceremony\, which Okoye describes as “a gathering” that invokes the ritual of the concert experience as a ritual of community. Drawing inspiration from the Black church\, it celebrates the spirit of rising above expectations and transforming adversity into triumph. Partly in tribute to the activist and poet laureate Maya Angelou\, the work celebrates the transformative ability of Black women\, commemorating those who have paved a path for future generations in many fields of human endeavor. \n\nTo discuss this new work and her overarching career\, Okoye will be interviewed for this series event by Terrance McKnight\, a commentator\, curator\, writer\, author\, pianist and weekday evening host for WQXR\, New York’s only all-classical music station.\n\nOkoye has been hailed as “gripping” and “evocative” by The New York Times. Okoye won The American Prize in vocal chamber music for her song cycle\, We Met At the Symphony. She is a 2021 Guggenheim Fellow and a 2021-23 Hermitage Artist Retreat Fellow. In 2020\, Detroit Symphony Orchestra appointed her Composer-in-Residence for their \"Classical Roots Festival\,\" featuring her work\, Black Bottom.\n\nOkoye's music has been commissioned\, performed and presented by Philadelphia Orchestra\, the Juilliard School\, Baltimore Symphony\, Opera North UK\, Houston Grand Opera\, the American Opera Project\, Moscow Symphony\, Tanglewood Music Festival\, Virginia Symphony\, Tulsa Opera\, Royal Opera House (London\, UK)\, and many others. Okoye believes in engaging communities through her music. She is a mentor composer for the National Association of Teachers of Singing Art Song Initiative and the American Opera Project\, Composers and the Voice program. Her music is published exclusively through Theodore Presser. To learn more\, visit https://www.nkeiruokoye.com.

Future doctors learned their craft from apprenticeships or in medical schools with wildly varying standards. When U-M came to Ann Arbor in 1837 calls for creating its own medical school were widespread\, but it did not open one for another decade. Even so\, it rapidly became the University’s largest department and in 1870 became the first medical school in the country to admit female students. The early medical curriculum was centered around lectures and recitations\; students seeking more practical training were on their own. And Ann Arbor was a small town\, forcing them to travel elsewhere in search of it. Seeking to change this\, in 1869 U-M became the first university in the country to open its own hospital. In so doing transformed medical education both for itself but also for the United States.\n\nJoel Howell received his BS at Lyman Briggs College at Michigan State University\, his MD and residency in internal medicine at the University of Chicago\, and his PhD in the History and Sociology of Science at the University of Pennsylvania. At UM he is the Elizabeth Farrand Professor of the History of Medicine and is a professor in the Department of Internal Medicine in the Medical School\, in the Department of History in LSA\, and in the Department of Health Management & Policy in the School of Public Health. His historical research attempts to understand when (and why) we have become so convinced that the key to better medicine will come through technology and science\, including projects in Brazil and Ethiopia. He has published extensively on the history of the University of Michigan. He is also the founding Director of the Medical Arts Program\, which offers opportunities for medical students and residents to attend arts events and meet with artists\, as well as to create art themselves (including both music and painting).

University Ave.\nFree and open to the public\n\nNite Bjuti (pronounced \"Night Beauty\") is Candice Hoyes\, Val Jeanty and Mimi Jones\, an evocative improvised trio of Afro Caribbean artists using electronics\, vocalism\, bass\, Haitian drum rhythms\, sampling and spoken word to cultivate their narrative journey. As visiting artist-scholars\, they will be in residence through the Center for World Performance Studies from February 6-9 including class visits across departments in Music\, Dance\, Theater\, and the Residential College\, as well as a public performance in the Keene Theater\, February 8.\n\nThey are UMEZ Arts Engagement Grant recipients for their 2022 mixed media installation commissioned by the Schomburg Center for Research in Black Culture\, and 2020 recipients of the NYC Women's Fund in Jazz Music to fully fund their forthcoming debut album. \n\nAs inspiration\, Nite Bjuti draws from a centuries old Haitian folklore called \"Night Beauty\,” about a girl whose bones begin to sing in her afterlife\, her spirit seeking justice. Nite Bjuti has recently played Nublu Jazz Fest\, NYC Winter JazzFest\, WBGO live broadcast performance\, and Jazz at Lincoln Center. Internationally\, they envision their music from concerts at electronic and jazz music venues\, museums\, cinema and dance and visual art installations. Nite Bjuti plays to rediscover the buried Diasporic beauty in the world\, transcendent across generations.

Modernist Glass from the Polish Past DESCRIPTION:The glass in this rare collection represents the work of renowned Polish glass artists and designers created between 1960 and 1980. Known as Polskie szkło artystyczne (Polish art glass)\, the works were produced in glass factories in southern Poland and are a feature of many homes throughout Central Europe. The glass masters were trained in schools of art and design and many achieved international fame during their lifetimes. \n\nThe collectors\, Endi Poskovic and his wife Julie Anne Visco\, began acquiring the glass in 2015-16 while Endi was a Fulbright Scholar and Visiting Professor at the Jan Matejko Academy of Fine Arts in Kraków. Scouring flea markets\, antique shops\, and websites\, they continue to acquire pieces and build the collection to this day. We are grateful to them for making this remarkable exhibit possible at CCPS and WCEE.\n\nOrganized by the Copernicus Center for Polish Studies\, this exhibition is co-sponsored by the Penny W. Stamps School of Art & Design and Weiser Center for Europe and Eurasia.\n\nLearn more about the exhibition and the artists at https://myumi.ch/8eVrM\n\nThe exhibit opens on September 15\, 2023 in 1010 Weiser Hall\, 500 Church Street\, Ann Arbor.

Pinto (School of Social Work) invites audiences to take part in an exhibition that examines his embodied gender states based on his intersecting childhood traumas and life experiences. In \"My Gender States\,\" Pinto shares his deep and abiding grief related to the childhood death of his sister and the subsequent gender embodiments that ensued stemming from the belief that he was his deceased sister. \n\nUsing autoethnography\, Pinto created a one-person play (\"Marília\,\" 2015) and site-specific installation performance (\"The Realm of the Dead\,\" 2022). These works explore the intersecting and shaping layers of childhood traumas\, gender states\, and his life experience—a story of the struggles\, fears\, and accomplishments he experienced as an immigrant to the United States. In \"Realm\,\" audiences circulated around 25 assemblage sculptures created from vintage suitcases and trunks that evoked the cemetery where Pinto’s sister was buried and the literal and figurative baggage that he\, a queer immigrant\, carried with him. \"My Gender States\" is a selection of materials\, images\, and texts from \"Marília\" and \"Realm\" curated to more closely examine the themes of gender and sexuality in these works. Collected are portrayals of Pinto’s gender states\, gender confusion\, gender embodiments\, gender doubt\, and reactions to gender stigma. \n\nRogério M. Pinto (Brazilian\, American\, b. 1965\, Belo Horizonte\, Brazil) is a University Diversity Social Transformation Professor\; Berit Ingersoll-Dayton Collegiate Professor of Social Work\; and Professor of Theatre and Drama\, School of Music\, Theatre & Dance\, at the University of Michigan. Pinto uses art-based methods to conduct community-engaged research in the United States and Brazil.\n\nThe photographs used in \"My Gender States\" are by Emerson Granillo (American\, b. 1987)\; David Newton (American\, b. 1993)\; and Nicholas Williams (American\, b. 1994). The \"Realm\" assemblages featured in \"My Gender States\" were conceived by Pinto and designed by him\, in collaboration with Sarah Tanner. \n\n\"My Gender States\" is on display in the Lane Hall Exhibit Space (first floor\, 204 S State St) from January 23\, to August 13\, 2024. The exhibit is free and open to the public\, M-F\, 9am-4pm.\n\nHosted by the Institute for Research on Women and Gender and the Women’s and Gender Studies Department.

Unlike previous U-M Library exhibits that focused on the artist at work\, this display shows him in informal and familial environments\, revealing a depth and complexity of character that are often overshadowed by his fame and professional achievements. The photographs and documents displayed showcase a variety of emotional tones — warmth\, humor\, tenderness\, and passion. Candid and relaxed more than posed\, they are similar to most people's pictures in old family albums.\n\nCulled from the Orson Welles-Beatrice Welles materials that are part of the Mavericks & Makers collection within the U-M Library’s Special Collections Research Center\, each photo or letter tells a story of a connection Welles held dearly. The materials included are from two periods: the late 1920s and early 1930s\, when Welles was a teenager\, and the mid-1950s to early 1960s\, during the early years of his marriage to his third wife\, Paola Mori. \n\nIt should be noted that Welles’s personal life was messy at best. Other collections housed at U-M that include personal materials related to Welles document his first and second marriages\, including the Welles-Feder Collection and the Wilson-Welles Collection. The items on display here were saved by his third and final child\, Beatrice Welles\, and reflect her childhood memories of her parents.\n\nThe exhibit is available during Hatcher Gallery Exhibit Room hours (https://umlib.us/hatchergalleryexhibits).

Whether designing furniture or developing the ideas for sculpture\, the process has always been the same. Ideas begin as\nscribbled images that are then stretched and refined with CAD software. At its core\, much of the work studies the manipulation of simple geometry. Dunn looks at the form from different forced perspectives – exploding\, augmenting\, slicing\, repeating\, and lighting. This body of work is a study of perception\, sympathy\, hierarchy\, and reality. The “We Are Virus” series is an adaptation from an initial design where it continued to evolve and adapt through manipulation of parts and scale.\n\nPeter Dunn received his BFA from Wayne State University and MFA from University of Michigan.

His new work—created for his exhibition at the Institute for the Humanities Gallery—is personal and abstract. Started as an attempt to paint for himself\, away from the center of things and off at the edges\, they are from the spaces of private thought that slip into existence and just as easily slip away. They come from an internal conversation and contact with the world. \"When I am with them\,\" Riley explains\, \"I feel a tension between the spaces in the works being present but unnamed. The paintings allow me to observe myself looking. I am acutely aware of time.

The works on view in this exhibition\, all brought into the Museum between 2019 and the present\, shows how institutions like UMMA are becoming more permeable to societal challenges\, and more nimble in responding to them in service to all in their communities. In this exhibition you will find works that reflect on how global migrations\, race\, gender\, and ecological change shape the way we engage with the world and inform our visions for the future.\n \nThis collection of artistic engagements with issues give us tools to envision who we want to be as individuals\, as a museum\, and as a society\, connected to one another across space and experience.\n \nSo gather here to take in these latest works of art brought here for you. Gather here to be engulfed in their forms and meanings\, to discuss their takes\, to learn\, to disagree. Gather to relax\, make a friend\, drink a coffee\, finish the daily Wordle.

Written across the walls above and around the memorial\, a statement proclaims Anishinaabe rights to the land we stand on: “You are on Anishinaabe Land.”  \n \nPresented alongside are paintings of imagined decolonized landscapes and a symbolic cache of provisions. Future Cache implicitly asks those who have benefited from the legacies of colonization to consider where they stand and where to go from here and seeks to foster a sense of belonging for displaced Indigenous peoples fighting for restitution.\n\nSpecial thanks to the Cheboiganing (Burt Lake) Band of Ottawa and Chippewa Indians\, Margaret Noodin\, and Richard A.

DESCRIPTION:Care in Uncertain Times\n \nAs crises of public health\, economic instability\, authoritarian regimes\, racial injustice\, and climate change spread around the globe\, millions are experiencing distress\, conflict\, uncertainty\, and vulnerability. This troubling combination of experiences is nothing new for Cambodians. Between 1975-1979\, when the Khmer Rouge ruled Cambodia\, about a quarter of the country’s populations died of infectious diseases\, weapon wounds\, and malnutrition.\n \nThis exhibition brings together more than 80 works of art spanning a millennium to present how the visual culture of Cambodia and its diaspora has evolved in the face of cultural upheaval. Showcasing works from worldwide collections\, including those from some of the foremost members of the Cambodian contemporary art scene\, Angkor Complex allows viewers to encounter the still-fresh scars of a genocide and critically appreciate the strategies evolved to nurture resilience in trying times.\n\nLead support for this exhibition is provided by the U-M Office of the Provost\, U-M Office of the President\, National Endowment for the Arts\, Michigan Arts and Culture Council\, Eleanor Noyes Crumpacker Endowment Fund\, and U-M Ross School of Business.\n  UID:114750-21833421@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/114750 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Art,Culture,Exhibition,Museum,Public Health,UMMA LOCATION:Museum of Art - A.

How have their perspectives shaped the enduring stories of our history and visions of the past?\n \nYou’re Welcome is a three-part installation and dynamic intervention that exposes the histories and narratives of the land occupied by the University of Michigan and UMMA’s neoclassical building\, Alumni Memorial Hall. A large-scale commission from artist Cannupa Hanska Luger on the exterior of UMMA’s building asks the campus and community to reconsider the memories molded into the Museum’s stone — the perspectives that shaped those traditions and the stories that remain unseen in our facade. This artistic interrogation dissects colonialist norms of monument-making\, explores the roles of buildings in upholding selected cultural systems\, and develops new forms of memorials that center Indigenous perspectives and collaboration to tell fuller stories and histories. \n \nLuger communicates stories of 21st-century Indigeneity\, sovereignty\, and anti-colonialism while offering critical cultural analysis through deep engagements with materials\, environments\, and communities. In addition to the exterior commission\, a gallery exhibition places Luger’s works of art in conversation with objects in UMMA’s collection\, allowing for discussion and thinking on long histories of collecting practices\, environmental degradation\, and the afterlife of colonialism. And\, a monument classroom from nonprofit public art and history studio Monument Lab invites the community to come together and examine how historic structures on the University of Michigan’s campus uphold social and cultural systems and narratives.  \n\nLead support for this project is provided by Teiger Foundation\, the U-M Office of the Provost\, the U-M Office of the President\, Erica Gervais Pappendick and Ted Pappendick\, the U-M Marsal Family School of Education\, the U-M Institute for the Humanities\, Michigan Humanities\, and the U-M Arts Initiative.

Collected for each course are objects that address the nature of materiality\, time\, and human interaction in relation to our environments\, our wars\, our relationships\, and our eccentricities. \n \nWorking in collaboration with University faculty\, the works in this exhibition were selected for their capacity to provoke engagement with the guiding questions and themes of their specific courses\, while also offering students inspiration for research and art projects in their areas of study. The exhibition demonstrates some of the diverse and creative ways art plays a central role in learning across the disciplines. It also asks us to consider what we can learn from art objects across an infinite variety of specialties and subject matter.\n \nAs classes begin in Fall of 2021\, you’ll be able to use these pages to explore the collections designed for each course\, dive into the works themselves\, and hear from the professors and students about how they are engaging with art and objects in new ways.

In this talk\, I will present tools I have developed for statistical inference and decision-making in light of these social interactions.\n(1) Inference: I will talk about estimation of causal effects in the presence of interference. In causal inference\, the term “interference” refers to a situation where\, due to interactions between units\, the treatment assigned to one unit affects the observed outcomes of others. I will discuss large-sample asymptotics for treatment effect estimation under network interference where the interference graph is a random draw from a graphon. When targeting the direct effect\, we show that popular estimators in our setting are considerably more accurate than existing results suggest. Meanwhile\, when targeting the indirect effect\, we propose a consistent estimator in a setting where no other consistent estimators are currently available.\n(2) Decision-Making: Turning to reinforcement learning amid social interactions\, I will focus on a problem inspired by a specific class of mobile health trials involving both target individuals and their care partners. These trials feature two types of interventions: those targeting individuals directly and those aimed at improving the relationship between the individual and their care partner. I will present an online reinforcement learning algorithm designed to personalize the delivery of these interventions. The algorithm's effectiveness is demonstrated through simulation studies conducted on a realistic test bed\, which was constructed using data from a prior mobile health study. The proposed algorithm will be implemented in the ADAPTS HCT clinical trial\, which seeks to improve medication adherence among adolescents undergoing allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation.

Choices about which artists you see in our galleries\, choices about what relevant facts we share about the works\, and choices about what - out of an infinite number of options - we don’t say about them.\n \nPieces in this exhibition were made at a time when the world came to be shaped by the ideologies of colonial expansion and Western domination. And yet\, that history and the stories of those marginalized do not readily appear in the still lives and portraits on display here. By grappling with what is visible and what remains hidden\, we are forced to examine whose stories and histories are prioritized and why.  \n \nIn this online exhibition\, you can explore our efforts to deeply question the Museum’s collection and our own past complicity in favoring colonial voices. In the Museum gallery\, which will open in early 2021\, you’ll be able to experience the changes we’re making to the physical space to highlight a more honest version of European and American history. \n \nBy challenging our own practice\, and continuing to add to what we know and what we write about the works we display\, UMMA tells a more complex and more complete story of this nation - one that unsettles\, and fails to settle for\, simple narratives. \n \n“Invisible things are not necessarily ‘not there’.... Certain absences are so stressed\, so ornate\, so planned\, they call attention to themselves\; arrest us with intentionality and purpose\, like neighborhoods that are defined by the population held away from them.” \n \n— Toni Morrison\n\nLead support for Unsettling Histories: Legacies of Slavery and Colonialism is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost\, the U-M Arts Initiative\, and the Susan and Richard Gutow Endowed Fund.\n  UID:84303-21621204@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/84303 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Art,European,Exhibition,History,Museum,UMMA LOCATION:Museum of Art - European and American Decorative Art CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20240212T160421 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20240209T110000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20240209T170000 SUMMARY:Exhibition:2024 Undergraduate Juried Exhibition DESCRIPTION:The Stamps School’s annual Undergraduate Juried Exhibition is a showcase of outstanding work produced by Stamps undergraduate students taking place at Stamps Gallery from February 9-24\, 2024. \nA highly anticipated Stamps School tradition\, the objectives of the Undergraduate Juried Exhibition are: \nTo encourage and inspire undergraduates to create high-caliber and ambitious artwork.To create an opportunity where all undergraduates can develop the experience\, knowledge\, and skills in preparing an application for a juried exhibition.To foster a vibrant culture of participating in exhibitions and public programs at Stamps School.

Zoom registration at https://myumi.ch/gRVG3\n\nBuddhist monasteries in Luang Prabang\, Laos\, have long been training grounds for traditional artists and craftsmen. Many of the monks were artists and craftsmen who maintained the buildings\, mural paintings\, and stencils at their respective monasteries. The Communist Revolution in 1975 interrupted this crucial means of conservation. This lecture looks at a sustainable art preservation project spearheaded by Tiao Nithakhong Somsanith. Somsanith was born in 1958 and is an award-winning Laotian artist whose Phra Bot\, Buddhist embroideries in gold and silver thread\, are found as offerings in monasteries in Laos and Thailand. In addition\, Somsanith’s embroideries are also collected by major museums and art galleries in Europe and North America. In 2010\, Somsanith initiated an art stenciling project that teaches monks and novices to repair the faded gold stencils in their monasteries. Using locally made rice paper\, Somsanith traces the old\, stenciled patterns and stories narrated on the mural paintings in monasteries. He then teaches monks and novices artistic restoration and preservation skills. Boreth Ly examines the effectiveness of this art project in helping to preserve traditional Buddhist arts in the homeland and diasporas. She argues that the sustainability of Somsanith’s teaching demonstrates that it is monks who have been and remain the guardians of the arts and architecture of their monasteries. She further argue that this art project shows how a contemporary artist like Somsanith\, whose knowledge is steeped in traditional Buddhist arts\, is a great preserver of tradition while also demonstrating great innovations in his artistic practice.\n\nBorn in the cosmopolitan village of Phnom Penh\, Cambodia\, Boreth Ly is an associate professor of Southeast Asian art history and visual culture at the University of California\, Santa Cruz. She coedited with Nora A. Taylor\, Modern and Contemporary Art of Southeast Asia (2012). In addition\, she has written numerous articles and essays on the arts and films of Southeast Asia and its diaspora.\n\nAcademically trained as an art historian\, Ly employs multidisciplinary methods and theories in her writings and analysis\, depending on the subject matter. Last\, Ly’s research focuses on the intersection between memory and historical trauma. She authored\, \"Traces of Trauma: Cambodian Visual Culture and National Identity in the Aftermath of Genocide\" (University of Hawai’i Press\, 2022).\n\nIf there is anything we can do to make this event accessible to you\, please contact us at cseas@umich.edu.
