SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:HET Brown Bag Seminar | Exploring QCD-like Dynamics from Supersymmetry
DESCRIPTION:Understanding the mechanisms of confinement and the dynamics of low-energy QCD remains one of the central open problems in the Standard Model. In this talk\, I will describe how these issues can be explored in a close relative of QCD\, constructed by starting from supersymmetric QCD and systematically breaking supersymmetry through anomaly mediation. These models reproduce the same phases as ordinary QCD\, while allowing us to probe confinement from a different dynamical perspective. Within this framework\, one can compute the η′ potential\, study θ-dependence\, and analyze the phase structure associated with spontaneous CP violation at θ = π. Moreover\, the construction permits a derivation of the analog of the chiral Lagrangian\, enabling explicit tests of the size of a dynamically generated up-quark mass. Strikingly\, we find that in these models the generated contribution could be large enough to account for the full observed up-quark mass.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Cosmo-Astro Seminar | Dynamical dark energy: Physical theories and parameterized models
DESCRIPTION:Many theories of dark energy predict a time-varying dark energy density\, in stark contrast to Einstein’s cosmological constant. Recently\, we have seen the first hints of an observational preference for such dynamical theories. In this talk\, I will discuss how phenomenological models can be used to not only distinguish dynamical dark energy from a cosmological constant\, but also constrain its underlying microphysics.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Learning Seminar in Algebraic Combinatorics: Tropical linear spaces and tropical Grassmannians
DESCRIPTION:Matroids are hard. Valuated matroids generalize matroids. Tropical linear spaces are equivalent to valuated matroids. Therefore\, tropical linear spaces are hard\, so are their parameter spaces: the Dressians\, the tropical analog of the Grassmannians. Inside the Dressian there is a nicer subset\, called the tropical Grassmannian\, that parametrizes the tropicalized linear spaces. I will familiarize the audience with these concepts with a lot of examples.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Student Number Theory: An introduction to the Arthur-Selberg trace formula
DESCRIPTION:In this talk\, I’ll discuss the Arthur-Selberg trace formula\, an essential tool in the study of automorphic representations. After stating the general form\, I’ll go through some small examples where the trace formula is relatively simple\, and then will describe how it complicates for groups like GL_n and SL_n. Time permitting\, I’ll share an application of comparison of trace formulas in calculating multiplicities of automorphic representations (a result that features in the work of Jacquet-Langlands).

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Algebraic Geometry Seminar: Shioda's conjecture on unirationality
DESCRIPTION:In characteristic zero\, Castelnuovo proved that a unirational surface is rational. In positive characteristic\, this fails. We discuss the plethora of non-rational\, often general-type\, surfaces that are unirational in positive characteristic. In 1977\, Shioda conjectured that these surfaces are classified by a cohomological property: supersingularity. I will demonstrate a counterexample to this conjecture. We will need a new obstruction that uses ideas from the study of hyperbolicity.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:2025 Ta-You Wu Lecture in Physics | Einstein\, Gravitational Waves\, Black Holes and Other Matters
DESCRIPTION:Join us in person for this lecture\, or tune in via livestream at: https://myumi.ch/MkzmE\n\nMore than a hundred years ago\, Einstein predicted that there were ripples in the fabric of space-time traveling at the speed of light: gravitational waves. On September 14\, 2015\, the LIGO detectors in Hanford\, Washington\, and Livingston\, Louisiana in the US registered for the first time ever a loud gravitational wave signal traveling through Earth\, created more than a billion years ago by the merger of two black holes. A spectacular signal was detected by LIGO and the Virgo detector in Europe in 2017\, produced by the collision of two neutron stars\, giving birth to a black hole\, generating also electromagnetic waves (light!) detected by many telescopes and helping us understand the origin of gold. In only a few years from the first detection\, there are now hundreds of new signals from mergers of black holes and/or neutron stars - this is the era of gravitational wave astronomy. We will describe the history and details of the observations\, and the gravity-bright future of the field.\n\nEach fall\, the University of Michigan Physics Department hosts the Ta-You Wu Lecture\, one of the most prestigious lecture events in the Department. It is named in honor of Michigan Physics alumnus and honorary Doctor of Science\, Ta-You Wu.\n\nFor more information\, please visit https://myumi.ch/D8zD1

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:CAS Guest Lecture. The Politics of 'No!': Armenia's National Survival and Queer Futures
DESCRIPTION:In this talk\, based on Tamar Shirinian's recent book titled\, Survival of a Perverse Nation: Morality and Queer Possibility in Armenia* (Duke University Press\, 2024)\, I discuss the intricate links between two popular rhetorics in Armenia at the time of my research (2012-2014): aylaserutyn (sexual perversion\, attributed by right wing nationalists and by mainstream media to the figuration of the homosexual\, and aylandakutyun (moral perversion) attributed by residents of Yerevan (largely working class) to the figure of the oligarch. These were both\, critically\, moral and not necessarily political narratives that resided in a seemingly overwhelming feeling that the nation was on a perverse path toward its annihilation. According to these narratives of perversion\, Armenia was missing proper Father figures both as national leadership as well as within households\, leading the nation on deviant and improper paths toward becoming something other than Armenia. She locates what the politics of \"No! as forms of aesthetic and stylistic refusal of these daddy politics\, drawing on examples from grass roots initiatives aimed at democratic and not necessarily moral futures\, and argues that rather than mourning these perverse presents lingering on the nation's survival\, we might locate in them queer futures toward liberation.\n   \nTamar R. Shirinian is a cultural anthropologist whose work explores themes of gender\, sexuality\, and political economy and especially their interconnectedness in the postsocialist world\, focused particularly on the Republic of Armenia. Tamar's first book\, *Survival of a Perverse Nation: Morality and Queer Possibility in Armenia*\, which explores homosexual panic and its ties to post-Soviet crises in social reproduction\, was published by Duke University Press in 2024 nd won the 2025 Ruth Benedict Award for Outstanding Monograph from the Association for Queer Anthropology. She is currently working on a second book manuscript\, tentatively entitled *Yakhq and Other Feminisms from the Post-Second World*\, which investigates post-Soviet ideologies and practices of feminism as well as their tensions with one another. Tamar was the co-editor of the 2018 Armenian Review special issue entitled *Queering Armenian Studies* is the editor of the forthcoming volume *Toward a Political Economy of Intimate Life: Social Reproduction Revisited* (Emerald\, 2026)\, is working on a co-edited volume entitled *It is Possible to Cry for the Whole World: Reflections on Armenian Feminist Solidarities* (Wayne State University Press)\, and has published numerous articles in journals such as *Feminist Formations*\, *American Ethnologist*\, *Gender & Society*\, *PoLAR: Political and Legal Anthropology Review*\, and *Anthropology and *Humanism** amongst others. Additionally\, she is the co-editor of the \"Third Space\" section of the *Journal of Middle East Women's Studies*\, a member of the 61 Collective in Armenia\, and the co-host of the *Other Armenias Podcast* (available on YouTube and Spotify).\n   \n\n\nAccommodation: If there is anything we can do to make this event accessible to you\, please contact us.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:CCMB/DCMB Weekly Seminar Series featuring Chia-Lin Wei\, PhD (Prof. at University of Washington)
DESCRIPTION:Abstract\n\nThe rapid advancement of sequencing technologies over the last two decades has delivered unprecedented insight into the biology of the human genome. Most strikingly\, the proven single-molecule longread sequencing technologies have delivered the complete\, gapless T2T human genome reference in recent years\, while significant reductions in costs associated with the production of high-output\, highly accurate shortread data in recent months is expected to accelerate the scale and resolution of single-cell\, single-molecule\, multi-omics analyses. All together\, these technology innovations have placed us at the beginning of an exciting era when the knowledge of human genomes can be realized at populational scale to address the unmet needs in human diseases and precision medicine.\n\nAt the Northwest Genomics Center (NWGC)\, we have pioneered a suite of state-of-the-art genomic technologies ranging from long-read sequencing\, single-cell multiomics\, 3D chromatin organization survey\, and spatial omics. Together with advances in data science aimed at systematically characterizing the functional consequences of disease-associated genetic variation\, we have applied these approaches to facilitate multiple NIH precision medicine initiatives\, including rare disease studies in GREGoR\, genomic somatic variation analysis in SMaHT\, and population-based genomic characterization in the All of Us Research Program. Our efforts have catalyzed research into the mechanistic underpinnings of health and disease. I will present how these technologies unlock the genetic alterations affected Mendelian conditions and derive mechanistic insights into how pathogenic variants induce 3D chromatin changes in oncogenic transformation.\n\n\nShort Bio\n\nChia-Lin Wei\, PhD\, focuses her research on the mammalian genome\, which is extensively folded to form complex three-dimensional (3D) chromatin organization to facilitate functional interactions. These 3D structures and functional interactions are dynamic. Understanding these complex functional interactions and their variations will not only advance fundamental biological knowledge but also provide novel insights into human disease that could lead to new treatment paradigms.\n\nDr. Wei's research specifically concentrates on the development and application of advanced genomic technologies to decipher genome structures\, their 3D organizations\, and how they modulate molecular phenotypes and complex traits. Her lab pioneered pair-end-tag (PET) sequencing strategies to advance the understanding of genome variation and transcription regulation in shaping cellular behavior.\n\nIn recent years\, the lab developed a suite of approaches including ChIA-PET\, ChIA-Drop\, and ChIATAC to map 3D chromatin conformation. These methods have transformed the understanding of how noncoding elements regulate transcription during development and disease states. Dr. Wei and her team further improved these assays to derive single-cell and single-molecule resolution for studying complex genome structural variation\, specifically\, the extrachromosomal DNA (ecDNA) function in cancer. In addition\, as one of the pioneers in establishing long-read technologies\, Dr. Wei leverages advances in single-molecule\, long-read sequencing methods to better identify complex structural variants of ecDNA\, their evolution\, and impacts on ecDNA functions

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Some New Perspectives on Kyle-Back Insider Trading Problems
DESCRIPTION:A Kyle-Back model consists of three types of agents trading on an asset: 1) a (large) population of noise traders\, who are non-strategic and are liquidity providers\; 2) an insider\, who observes the inside information and invests strategically to maximize his gain\; and 3) a market maker\, who observes the total order of the insider and the noise traders and sets the market price. This is a Nash game problem between the insider and the market maker. While there are extensive studies in the math finance literature\, the existing approaches have some undesirable features\, and we aim to overcome two of them.\n\nFirst\, the majority of the existing literature take the PDE approach\, which requires certain Markovian structure of the candidate equilibrium. This constraint makes the existence hard\, and on the other hand excludes the uniqueness result among possibly non-Markovian equilibria. We shall reformulate the problem as a stochastic differential game and use the FBSDE approach. Under certain technical conditions\, we show that the game has a unique equilibrium. This is the first uniqueness result in the literature. Moreover\, our equilibrium is not Markovian in the above sense\, and thus is beyond the reach of the standard approach in the literature.\n\nNext\, in the existing results the insider’s equilibrium strategy has the same scale as the total order of all noise traders. Note that in many applications\, the number of noise traders is large\, then this scale issue is against the intuition\, and more importantly against the medium-sized trades observed in the empirical studies.  We shall introduce a model with legal risk and carry out the asymptotic analysis when the number of noise traders goes to infinity. We derive a stealth index for the insider’s trading volume which confirms the medium-sized trades\, and show that the limit equilibrium\, which is a lot easier to analyze\, is an approximate equilibrium for the original problem.\n\nThe talk is bases on two works\, one joint with Bixing Qiao and the other one with Jin Ma and Weixuan Xia.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:How to Speak Your Mind/How to Change Your Mind Speakers Series Kick Off with Glenn Loury
DESCRIPTION:This speaker series is designed to encourage the campus community to think – and talk with one another – about what it means to develop an informed opinion and stand your ground when challenged\; *and* about changing your mind in light of new evidence\, different perspectives\, and serious reflection. We want to make the case that open inquiry and the thoughtful exchange of ideas is not only or primarily about left-right debates and shouting matches. It can expand what you know (and how you know it)\, change your mind when warranted\, and help cultivate the courage of your convictions when necessary.\n\nGlenn C. Loury is the Merton P. Stoltz Professor of the Social Sciences\, Emeritus\, at Brown University\, and the inaugural speaker in the series. As a public intellectual\, writing mainly on the themes of racial inequality and social policy\, he has published hundreds of essays and reviews in journals of public affairs in the U.S. and abroad. \n\nHe is also host of The Glenn Show\, a popular podcast and newsletter. His most recent book *Self-Censorship* provides a provocative analysis of the powerful social forces that can inhibit our willingness to voice unpopular opinions. The answer\, he argues\, is for as many of us as possible to be braver and more human – to take a risk and unapologetically “live within the truth.”\n\n*Self-Censorship* was just published by Polity Books and will be available for purchase during the reception and Open Inquiry Fair that will follow Loury’s conversation with moderator Angela Dillard\, Professor of History and Afroamerican & African Studies\, Vice Provost for Undergraduate Education and Interim VP for Access & Opportunity. \n\nRegistration is required.  Please register at the sidebar under RELATED LINKS.\n\nOpen Inquiry Week events are sponsored by Talking Maize & Blue\, the Life Changing Education Theme Year\, The Program on Intergroup Relations\, the University of Michigan Library\, HxA Campus Community at U-M\, Gerald R. Ford School of Public Policy\, and the Office of the Provost.

SUMMARY:Performance:Nigamon/Tunai
DESCRIPTION:In the heart of a forest of sound\, Canadian artist Émilie Monnet and Colombian artist Waira Nina deliver a poetic manifesto inspired by the bonds of friendship and solidarity.\n\nNigamon / Tunai (the words translate to “song” in the Anishinaabemowin and Inga languages) is an immersive performance ritual rooted in the presence of the natural world and co-exists with the audience\, who are in close proximity to the performers on the Power Center stage.\n\nAt the crossroads of friendship and resistance\, the two women invite us to listen deeply and to understand the knowledge and struggles that link their respective cultures: the depletion and plundering of natural resources that are core to their existence.\n\nInterweaving immersive performance and audio documentary with Indigenous knowledge and voices\, this mesmerizing new theatrical work invites audiences into ritualized listening\, and to feel the sound vibrations emitted by the surrounding water\, stones\, copper\, and tree trunks. Linked by the figure of the turtle\, which is central to both of their origin stories\, the two women form an effective alliance advocating for the protection of water\, land\, stars\, and ancestral knowledge.\n\nLooking for free student tickets? All U-M undergraduate students are eligible to receive a FREE ticket to a UMS performance per academic year through the Bert’s Ticket program (a $20 value)!

SUMMARY:Performance:John Hagstrom\, trumpet
DESCRIPTION:Join us for a guest artist recital featuring John Hagstrom\, the Bleck Family Chair of Trumpet for the Chicago Symphony Orchestra (CSO). He will be accompanied by Liz Ames\, piano.\n\nGUEST ARTIST BIO\n\nJOHN HAGSTROM joined the Chicago Symphony Orchestra’s trumpet section as fourth trumpet in 1996. A year later\, he won the Orchestra’s second trumpet position\, carrying on the tradition of brass section teamwork for which the CSO is famous. Previously\, he was principal trumpet of the Wichita Symphony Orchestra in Kansas and served as assistant professor of trumpet at Wichita State University.\n\nHagstrom is the host of *Intermission* at the CSO\, a podcast produced by the CSOA showcasing the voices of numerous CSO musicians through individual features or within topical episodes that discuss the dedication of the CSO to its mission and to its listeners. Originally conceived as a way for CSO supporters and students to stay connected to the Orchestra during the COVID-19 pandemic\, it additionally features selected moments of many of the CSO’s recordings.\n\nHagstrom is passionate in his support of music education\, and in 2006 helped to initiate *Dream Out Loud*\, a music-education advocacy partnership between the Chicago Symphony Orchestra Association and the Yamaha Corporation of America. Through that initiative\, he developed a variety of resources for elementary through high school students\, their teachers and parents\, designed to support students’ music education and provide encouragement through times of challenge.\n\nA native Chicagoan\, Hagstrom grew up listening to the CSO. He studied at the Eastman School of Music and for six years was a member of “The President’s Own” United States Marine Band in Washington\, D.C.\, where he spent three of those years as principal trumpet.

SUMMARY:Performance:Lori McKenna
DESCRIPTION:“One of Music City’s most in-demand songwriters” –Paste\n\nFrom her home base in Boston\, Lori McKenna has carved out an enviable niche for herself as one of Nashville's most in-demand songwriters\, all while maintaining a prolific and remarkably consistent career as a solo artist. The release of her anticipated album\, 1988\, adds to a series of landmark years for McKenna and follows three widely acclaimed albums: 2016’s The Bird & The Rifle\, 2018’s The Tree and 2020’s The Balladeer\, of which the Associated Press praised\, “McKenna has by now long established herself as one of the best songwriters working in any genre. And she does it again and again\,” while The Tennessean asserted\, “one of the sharpest pens in modern country and folk songwriting.” \n\nIn addition to her career as a solo artist\, McKenna continues to enjoy success as one of the music industry’s most in-demand songwriters. In 2023\, she was nominated for a Grammy for Best Country Song for co-writing “I Bet You Think About Me (Taylor’s Version) (From the Vault)\,” performed by Taylor Swift. In 2017\, McKenna became the first woman to win the Academy of Country Music’s Songwriter of the Year award and the first woman to win the Country Music Association’s Song of the Year award two years in a row. She also won back-to-back Grammys for Best Country Song: for “Girl Crush\,” performed by Little Big Town\, in 2016 and “Humble and Kind\,” performed by Tim McGraw\, in 2017. In 2021\, McKenna won her third Best Country Song Grammy for co-writing “Crowded Table\,” performed by the Highwomen\, with Brandi Carlile and Natalie Hemby. In addition to writing songs for a multitude of award-winning artists — including Hunter Hayes\, Faith Hill\, Miranda Lambert\, Little Big Town\, Reba McEntire\, Tim McGraw and Carrie Underwood — McKenna also co-wrote “Always Remember Us This Way\,” which was featured in the Oscar-winning 2018 film “A Star Is Born.”

SUMMARY:Exhibition:2025 Second Year Studio Exhibition
DESCRIPTION:August 18 - October 24\, 2025Exhibition Reception: September 11\, 3-5 p.m.\n\"In their second year\, Stamps students complete a major milestone: Second Year Studio (SYS). It’s a course where\, per the syllabus\, students 'develop the capacity to work independently by identifying\, exploring\, and pursuing a single independent project that involves multiple iterations.' Each student takes their own path\, encountering questions that can shape the direction of their creative practice—how do I manage my time? How much constraint vs. freedom do I thrive on? What subject matter do I care about most deeply? How do my ideas about my future goals intersect with the work I want to make now? At the end of the semester\, students formally report on their experience in a presentation called the Sophomore Review\, and a faculty panel offers individualized feedback. \nUntil now\, the classroom studios and review rooms have been the only place to catch a glimpse of the art and design work resulting from this pivotal course. Last year\, Associate Dean for Academic Programs Rebecca Strzelec proposed something new: an exhibition installed throughout the Art &amp\; Architecture Building during the summer that would celebrate Second Year Studio work and help to welcome the community back in the Fall. This inaugural 2025 Second Year Studio Exhibition showcases our rising third-years and transfer students\, and invites first-years and other newcomers to explore both the building\, and the creative possibilities ahead. The show features 44 students who have volunteered to participate\, yet it honors every Stamps major who reaches the SYS milestone. \nThe pieces on view span a wide array of media and capture a specific moment in each maker’s path—experiments in previously unfamiliar methods\, emergent passions\, creative risks taken\, iterations and reiterations\, and the seeds of so much future work.\"\n- Sally Clegg\, Lecturer and Student Exhibitions Coordinator\nExhibiting Artists and Designers\n\nRobin Beaney\nAdi Behar\nDavid Byun\nZoë Corley\nChloe Dennis\nViktoriya Finyak\nMaria Elena García-Murguía\nElisa Gasser\nOlivia Glynn\nRoe Halbert\nNadav Havilio\nDee Holmes\nRuby Hough\nUrvi Joshi\nEunice Kim\nHannah Kryzhan\nBen Levitsky\nJoyce Liu\nKatelyn Ma\nAlexandria Mainor\nErin Malone\nSummer Mansi\nCheyenne Moore\nElla Moxon\nShafiq Muqit\nAlex Nguyen\nAnna Noh\nLeanna Mokihana Paik\nEva Park\nMichelle Peng\nEliana Pettigrew\nZainab Rahmani\nOlivia Reed\nSky Roberts\nZachary Sebestyen\nOliver Lee St Cyr\nSophie Stillwagon\nVeronica Weinberg\nCaitlin Weingarden\nNala Arielle White\nAriel Williams\nSilas Williams\nKatherine Xu\nJoy Yang\n

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Consequence - Group Art Exhibition - Art as Environmental Activism
DESCRIPTION:This group exhibition is an in-depth exploration of the role of art as a powerful catalyst for environmental activism. At first glance\, these works each possess striking beauty. However\, a closer inspection reveals a profound and often unsettling depth that challenges one’s perceptions. \n\nThe artworks are imbued with many layers of meaning\, inviting us to engage critically with the themes presented and encouraging us to reflect on our often-fraught relationship with the natural world.   Through a variety of mediums and techniques\, these works prompt us to confront uncomfortable truths about climate change\, habitat loss\, and the disappearing biodiversity around us. \n\nCampbell’s captivating “Heatscape” series transforms what is often an intangible concept into the tangible realm by visually translating heat distribution data to depict the impact of urban design on climate.  This series offers a profound exploration of the intriguing phenomenon known as \"urban heat islands”\, a term that describes urban areas that absorb and radiate significantly more heat than their surrounding rural landscapes due to human activities and infrastructure.\n\n“Heatscape” invites us to engage in a deeper reflection about the profound impact that human ingenuity has wielded over the natural world\, serving as a visual reminder of our responsibility to urban design that is considerate to the environment and communities it impacts. This work challenges us to recognize the interplay between our lifestyles and the environment\, urging a dialogue about sustainable practices that could mitigate the effects of these heat islands.\n\nSnider’s work powerfully illustrates the remnants of industrialization\, capturing the unsettling essence of its aftermath. In his art\, we encounter an urban landscape that is strikingly devoid of human presence\, creating an almost haunting atmosphere. This absence of people amplifies the eerie feeling and serves as a warning about the enduring consequences of industrial progress. It prompts viewers to reflect on the environmental impact and the transformations that society has undergone\, urging us to consider what aspects of our world will persist in the wake of such change. Ultimately\, Snider’s poignant depictions challenge us to confront the stark reality of a landscape altered by human activity\, inviting contemplation on both the beauty and the desolation that can coexist in our modern environments.\n\nSandra Osip’s sculptures delve deeply into the juxtaposition of decay and destruction alongside the concepts of life and growth. Through her abstract structures\, she illustrates the profound effects climate change has on our urban landscapes and the planet as a whole. These pieces serve as a poignant reminder of the delicate balance between nature and human impact\, while Osip’s imaginative flowers evoke a sense of nostalgia and loss\, symbolizing the beauty of what has been irretrievably diminished in our world. By celebrating these natural forms\, she not only honors the richness of biodiversity but also raises awareness about the environmental crisis we face.\n\nCassells’ work not only celebrates a profound connection to nature and sustainable practices but also serves to illuminate the significant impact that climate change has on vulnerable communities. Through her art\, she investigates the intricate relationships between different environmental systems\, emphasizing how they are all interconnected. \n\nBy delving into these themes\, Cassells sheds light on the challenges faced by communities that often bear the brunt of climate change despite contributing the least to the problem. Her exploration encourages a deeper understanding of how environmental changes affect social structures and the lives of people in marginalized areas. In doing so\, she advocates for greater awareness and action to address these issues\, ultimately promoting a more sustainable and equitable future for all. \n\nShanna Merola’s photo-collages are informed by the stories of environmental justice struggles past and present.  Shanna Merola and Halima Afi Cassells collaborated on collage and interactive installations for over five years. Researching\, wandering\, photographing\, and creating together while interrogating the interconnectedness of environmental degradation\, and global corporatism\, and community response.\n\nSobel takes a more straightforward approach by helping us begin to grasp the reality of living in a world affected by climate change.  Her work described as “wilderness-based\, science-inspired”\, serves as a bridge\, connecting viewers to experiences that might seem too distant or unfolding too slowly for most people to comprehend firsthand. In doing so\, she not only raises awareness but also encourages dialogue about the pressing challenges our planet faces. Through her work\, Sobel facilitates a deeper understanding of the interconnection between humanity and the environment\, compelling us to reflect on our role in addressing these urgent issues.\n\nThese diverse approaches to creating art serve as powerful connections to the most critical and pressing environmental issues of our time. This engagement serves to deepen our understanding of these challenges from multiple perspectives\, including cultural\, social\, and scientific viewpoints.  \nFurthermore\, these approaches are not only meant to inform but also to inspire. They challenge us to reconsider our relationship with the planet and encourage us to take actionable steps toward sustainability.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Cathy Barry Art Exhibition
DESCRIPTION:Cathy Barry has a profound connection to the natural world\, which has shaped her artistic journey. She focuses on expressing gratitude\, compassion\, and a sense of responsibility towards environmental protection. After years of working with traditional media such as oil\, acrylic\, and watercolor\, her art is transitioning to more sustainable materials. The pigments she uses in her collages are sourced entirely from plants\, all collected and processed by Cathy herself from various locations throughout Michigan. This natural paint has become a vital part of her expressive palette\, driving her to approach her work with a renewed sense of integrity and awareness of our interconnected ecosystem.\n\nIn her collages\, Cathy skillfully combines paper painted with her homemade botanical pigments and intricately punched shapes\, creating a distinctive micro-scale vocabulary. These miniature worlds are thoughtfully assembled within larger contexts\, challenging our perceptions of the universe and our place within it.\n\nRecently\, Cathy has embarked on a new adventure: creating art directly from plant materials. By collecting\, drying\, and weaving leaves\, she has developed an exciting rhythm in her process. Through simple weaving\, twining\, and basketry techniques\, she has deepened her enthusiasm for and connection to the plants surrounding her in her yard and neighborhood. This integration of materials with form and subject in her work evokes a serene wholeness that reflects nature's inherent wisdom. Additionally\, her journey has sparked a curiosity to explore the historical uses and roles of plants throughout history.\n\nCathy Barry is an artist and instructor living and working in Ann Arbor\, Mi. She is a Lecturer in the University of Michigan (UM) Stamps School of Art and Design\, the UM Program in the Environment and the UM Biological Station.

SUMMARY:Conference / Symposium:Complexity in the Social World: The Challenging Case of Structural Racism
DESCRIPTION:This two-day conference will examine how interdisciplinary collaboration can inform our understanding of structural racism and the way we think about complex topics.\n\nPlease register to attend at https://myumi.ch/2rxWR. Early career scholars may apply for travel awards by Sept. 12\, 2025 at https://myumi.ch/z9je9.\n\n\nThe challenge: With the growth of both big data availability and computing power\, there has been a rapid increase in new methods to understanding complexity in the social world. However\, there may not have been a concurrent growth in the foundations of scientific inquiry\, including complex thinking\, broad causal thinking\, and an integration of theories and frameworks across disciplines to guide empirical tests. Further\, evidence suggests that the academic research model\, with its resource-segregated networks\, narrow scientific\, discipline-specific training\, and focus on measures of short-term productivity\, contributes to a fragmented and even misleading understanding of the social world.\n\nThe rapid growth in racial inequities research through the concept of ‘structural racism’ is a case study in the challenges that arise without a thorough integration of theories drawn from source humanities and humanities-informed social science and with an academic model built on segregated resources that prioritizes short-term products. What has resulted is a literature that\, at times\, sidesteps difficult questions on how to understand the interconnected systems and processes that link racial patterns in social\, economic\, and political life over place and time. \n\nSymposium purpose: This meeting is intended to address the challenges to the social science literature on race and the concept of structural racism. We will convene discussions about social scientific inquiry\, the limitations of the academic research model\, and innovative approaches to the study of racial patterns and inequities while working to desegregate research networks.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:ICE in the Heartland: Community Impacts of Worksite Immigration Raids
DESCRIPTION:ICE in the Heartland showcases a multifaceted project that gathers and disseminates the stories of communities impacted by immigration worksite raids with the aim of bringing underrepresented narratives to news media\, classroom\, and public discourse. This project comprises qualitative public health research conducted in impacted communities and visual arts generated from the research outcomes. Research teams of graduate and undergraduate students from the University of Michigan\, led by Professor William Lopez\, and the University of Iowa\, led by Professor Nicole Novak\, collaborated with a range of community members and organizers at sites of six large-scale immigration worksite raids that occurred in 2018 in Iowa\, Nebraska\, Ohio\, Tennessee\, and Texas. The researchers visited these sites\, spoke to advocates\, detainees\, their families\, and other community members. In conversation with the seventy-seven interviews\, artists Dalia Harris and Carolina Jones Ortiz generated ten images that comprise ICE in the Heartland. On display with the artworks are community member testimonies\, analysis on the public health detriments to immigration worksite raids and deportation\, insights to the artists’ methods\, and the curricular materials used in public outreach programs. \n\nHosted and sponsored by the Institute for Research on Women and Gender and the Department of Women’s and Gender Studies\, U-M.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:LSI SciComm Series: Kate Zernike
DESCRIPTION:In 1999 the Massachusetts Institute of Technology publicly admitted that it had discriminated against the women on its science faculty. That \"extraordinary admission\,\" as the front page of the New York Times described it\, set off a reckoning across the country about the lack of women at the highest levels of science.\n\nThe MIT story started with the quiet efforts of 16 highly accomplished female scientists\, led by Nancy Hopkins\, a molecular biologist who had started her career 30 years earlier believing that science was a pure meritocracy and feminism was an unnecessary relic. Kate Zernike\, the author of \"The Exceptions: Nancy Hopkins and the Fight for Women in Science\" will talk about how Hopkins was emblematic of her generation\, and what the next generation of scientists can learn from the experience of the women at MIT.\n\nA book-signing event will take place immediately following the talk\, at 11:00 a.m. in the Rackham Amphitheater.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Quantum Research Institute | New architectures for neutral atom quantum computing
DESCRIPTION:In-Person: Michigan Memorial Phoenix Project - 2000PML\nZoom: https://umich.zoom.us/j/91548361604?jst=2\n\nAbstract: I will present recent theoretical and experimental developments on fault-tolerant quantum computing with neutral 171Yb atoms. On the theoretical side\, I will discuss hardware-efficient implementations of error correction leveraging unique features of neutral atom qubits. I will also present experimental realizations of these concepts with physical and logical qubits\, as well as advances in the design and implementation of robust entangling gates. Finally\, I will discuss recent results from a second-generation tweezer array capable of rapid\, continuous mid-circuit atom replacement\, and sketch a path towards unlimited-depth fault-tolerant quantum circuits. \n\nBio\nJeff Thompson is an Associate Professor of Electrical and Computer Engineering at Princeton\, and is an associated faculty member in the Physics and in the Princeton Materials Institute. His research focuses on developing scalable quantum technologies based on atomic qubits. His group pioneered ytterbium (Yb) neutral atom qubits through a research program spanning fundamental atomic spectroscopy\, the design and implementation of record-fidelity quantum gates\, logical qubit circuits and a novel\, hardware-efficient fault-tolerant quantum computing architecture based on erasure conversion. Thompson’s group is also pursuing the development of modular quantum interconnects using both neutral atom qubits and solid-state rare earth ion defects. In 2024\, Thompson co-founded Logiqal\, Inc. to pursue the development of large-scale modular quantum computers based on Yb qubits.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Stacey L. Kirby: The Bureau of Personal Belonging (Ann Arbor Edition)
DESCRIPTION:Exhibition Dates: September 27 - November 8\, 2025\nOpening Performances: September 27\, 1-5 p.m.Closing Performances: November 8\, 1-5 p.m.\nStacey L. Kirby’s The Bureau of Personal Belonging is a series of interactive performances set within immersive installations and activated by viewer participation. The work fosters dialogue on identity\, community\, and civil engagement. Through bureaucratic forms\, papers\, postures\, language\, and aesthetics\, audiences are invited to participate in respectful dialogues and playful interactions with the artist. As the 2025 Roman J. Witt Artist-in-Residence\, Kirby spent 12 weeks on campus from January through March of 2025 meeting with students\, faculty\, and staff from the Stamps School and across U-M. Based on these conversations\, Kirby devised a site-specific installation that seeks to amplify the voices of the U-M community\, uphold the value of democratic civic engagement\, and highlight the power of art in building solidarity and mutual respect.\nCurated by Srimoyee Mitra.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Fore-Site (Phase 1): The Stamps Gallery Pillar Project
DESCRIPTION:Phase 1 Opening Reception: September 18\, 6:30 – 8:30 p.m.\nFrom September 2025 through August 2026\, Stamps Gallery is partnering in a curatorial collaboration with two Ypsilanti-based\, artist-run project spaces led by Stamps alumni: C.Y.N.K. Studios\, directed by Sally Clegg (Lecturer III and Student Exhibition Coordinator\, MFA ’20) and Abhishek Narula (MFA ’20)\; and Sometimes Space\, directed by Nathan Byrne (Lecturer I\, MFA ’21). Each space hosts dozens of artists annually for exhibitions\, performances\, and events\, fostering experimental work and building community. For this project\, Byrne\, Clegg\, and Narula have been commissioned to reimagine the pillars on Division Street that flank the gallery. In response\, they've curated six artists to create new work for the pillars over three cycles:\nPhase 1 (September 12 - December 12) artists: Amelia Burns (Cranbrook MFA '23) and Erin McKenna (MFA '20)Phase 2 (January 12 - April 12) artists: Sally Clegg (MFA '20) and Kim Karlsrud (MFA '20)Phase 3 (May 12 - August 12) artists: Abhishek Narula (MFA '20) and Nathan Byrne (MFA '21)\nPhase 1 Curatorial Statement\nCurated by Sometimes Space: Amelia Burns (entry pillar)Curated by CYNK Studios: Erin McKenna (courtyard pillar)\nArtists Amelia Burns and Erin McKenna reimagine the Division Street pillars through digital collages rooted in memory\, landscape and shared environments. Burns arranges fragments of her own photographs into airy compositions where these pictorial remnants become enshrined by the artist’s vision of the sacred. McKenna draws from the language of quilting\, organizing her photos of mushrooms\, moss and lichen into vibrant geometric patterns which echo Ohio textile traditions. Both artists\, Midwestern women attentive to the nuances of place\, weave personal imagery into collective meaning. Together\, their works create spaces of reverence and connection.\nAmelia Burns: GODSPROMISESRISINGHIGHGODSPROMISESRISINGHIGH contains fragments of photographs I have made over years in various locations in the United States. Each fragment holds personal meaning for me. The exalted pieces of environments float together and create a visual smorgasbord of symbols\, denoting a capitalist world\, filled with tender moments and connections\, where all objects are made holy.\nErin McKenna: Mushroom TrailMushroom Trail reimagines the Ohio Star quilt block through a collage of photographs of mushrooms\, lichen\, and moss gathered during walks in my Appalachian forest home. I created small blocks of repeating patterns to build texture and color. Inspired by the Barn Quilt Trail\, the work honors Ohio’s yard art traditions. Like other local expressions\, from chainsaw-carved bears to the front porch goose\, it fosters a shared sense of pride of place\, and community.\nArtist Statements/Bios\nAmelia BurnsThrough my travels across nearly every U.S. state\, I document not only the natural world but also its entanglement with human influence. My work speaks to the loneliness\, humor\, beauty\, pain\, and joy that coexist within these spaces. The landscapes I create—whether photographic or collage-based—are imbued with a visceral connection to the physical environments I’ve passed through. They are a reprocessing of the cultural detritus that surrounds me\, transforming fragments into vignettes that explore both the darkness and resilience of humanity.\nAt its core\, my work explores the underworld of human experience\, grappling with the visceral tension between authenticity and artifice in contemporary Americana. It reflects the disgusting horror of capitalism\, the mysticism of my Irish Catholic upbringing\, and the profound solitude that fuels my process. The resulting images are landscapes of seeking\, filled with the pain\, glory\, and quiet resistance of life.\nAmelia Burns is a photographer\, collage artist\, curator and educator exploring the cultural and physical landscapes of the U.S.\, capturing the nuances of shared environments. She earned her BFA in Photography from Pratt Institute in 2005 and later completed her MFA at Cranbrook Academy of Art in 2023. Website / Instagram\nErin McKenna Erin McKenna is an interdisciplinary artist with a background in sculpture. Her practice embraces humor\, playful misuse\, and celebration as strategies to dismantle stereotypes and complicate binaries of construction and embellishment. With a feminist lens\, she explores the space where necessity meets excess\, highlighting the subversive potential of both. Her sculptures often pair gritty building materials with tactile fabrics\, generating tension between utility and ornament. Growing up in a perpetually unfinished home—a place of sawdust\, chop saws\, and improvisation—instilled in her a respect for visible labor\, inventive problem-solving\, and imperfection. Her process follows personal rules:\nno hierarchy of materialssubvert expected usecomplicate binaries\, stereotypes and associationsmisuse\, misapplyallow for variable arrangementsrepeat\, reiterate\, reuseconsider the subversive possibilities of the excessive\, fantastic\, and necessaryalways let the labor be visible\nMcKenna earned her BFA from Columbus College of Art &amp\; Design in 2012 and later completed her MFA at Stamps School of Art &amp\; Design at the University of Michigan. She recently moved back to the forest she calls home in Southeastern Ohio\, where she serves as Exhibitions Director at The Dairy Barn Arts Center\, hunts for mushrooms with her toddler\, and makes quilts.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:By Means of a Pencil
DESCRIPTION:October 9 – November 5\, 2025\nOpening Reception October 9\, 5:00-8:00 pm\nClosing Reception: November 2\, 2:00-5:00 pm\n\nThe U-M Duderstadt Center Gallery presents By Means of a Pencil a solo exhibition by artist and Stamps School of Art & Design LEO Lecturer I Nathan Byrne.\n\nBy Means of a Pencil brings together a body of work centered around the quirky and enigmatic Swiss author Robert Walser. In this exhibition poetic gestures and nods to Walser are able to flourish as visual forms and objects. The work comprises spontaneous and excessively durational works of drawing\, collage\, and sculpture.\n\nFor years\, I have been intrigued by the author Robert Walser’s  mark making which he referred to as his “pencil method” where he would sketch out stories in a radically miniaturized script on diminutive paper fragments. Walser’s pencil method began when he was experiencing severe writer’s cramp and: “hideously and frightfully hated his pen.” He goes on in a letter written in 1927 describing the freeing nature of this process: “I suffered a real breakdown in my hand on account of the pen\, a sort of cramp from whose clutches I slowly\, laboriously freed myself by means of the pencil.”\n\nJust as it was with Walser “by means of a pencil” I was able  to make peace with drawing by radically altering the process by which I approached the act itself. Eventually\, this became processes like my transcription drawings\, in which I write out an entire novel as a form of mark making.\n\nWhile this exhibition mines the Walser archive and the spirit of this author\, this work is just as much about me and my immersion in this “world of Walser.” It is about my own engagement with relationships between language and mark making\, language and sculpture\, language and longing.\n\nThis project was made possible by the generous support of Stamps School of Art & Design at the University of Michigan.\n\nPoster design by Sky Christoph.\n\nHours: 12 – 6 pm\, Tues. – Fri. & Sun.\n\nLocation: 2281 Bonisteel Blvd\, Ann Arbor\, MI 48109

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:CJS Noon Lecture Series | Scripting Suicide in Japan
DESCRIPTION:Please note: This lecture will be held in person in room 555\, Weiser Hall. It will not be live-streamed or recorded.\n   \n   Japan is a nation saddled with centuries of accumulated stereotypes and loaded assumptions about suicide. Many pronouncements have been made about those who have died by their own hand\, while little careful attention has been paid to the words of the dead themselves. In this book talk\, Kirsten Cather explores far-ranging creations by famous 20th and 21st century Japanese writers and little-known amateurs alike – death poems\, suicide notes\, memorials\, suicide maps and manuals\, and works of literature\, film\, and manga. She invites the audience into a discussion of these difficult texts to consider how these words reach out to us to initiate a dialogue with the dead\, one that can reveal why it matters to write into and from the void.\n   \n   Kirsten Cather has been teaching Japanese literature\, film\, and culture in the Department of Asian Studies at the University of Texas at Austin for the past twenty years. Her first book\, *The Art of Censorship in Postwar Japan* (University of Hawai`i Press\, 2012)\, analyzed Japan’s landmark obscenity (*waisetsu*) trials\, from the translation of D.H. Lawrence’s *Lady Chatterley’s Lover* in the 1950s to an erotic manga in 2002. Her most recent book\, *Scripting Suicide in Japan* (UC Press\, 2024)\, considers how and why individuals write and read in the face and wake of suicide.\n   \n   This lecture is made possible with the generous support of the U.S. Department of Education Title VI grant.\n   \nIf 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:Tools and Technology Seminar by Michelle Kim
DESCRIPTION:Abstract\n\nUnderstanding the genetic basis of complex traits in admixed populations is challenging due to diverse genetic backgrounds\, particularly for highly prevalent diseases. Misinterpreting admixture’s impact can have significant consequences for biomedical research. This study employs advanced computational biology to investigate how admixture shapes the genetic architecture of complex traits and influences GWAS outcomes. Using the forward-in-time population genetic simulator SLiM\, we model trait evolution under admixture by varying the relationship between causal variant effect sizes and selection coefficients while accounting for population size changes and migration across five admixture scenarios. \n\nOur findings reveal that GWAS power is influenced by genetic architecture and population demographic history. Traits with weak correlations between effect size and fitness (e.g.\, anthropometric traits) show higher GWAS power compared to traits with stronger correlations (e.g.\, genetic diseases). Populations with recent bottlenecks exhibit higher GWAS power\, highlighting the role of rare variants. Surprisingly\, fine- mapping ability remains consistent across traits. Empirical validation using data from diverse populations\, including the All of Us database\, supports our simulation predictions. For anthropometric traits like height\, common variants exhibit moderate effects\, while for traits like malignant neoplasms\, rare variants show larger effects and common variants minimal effects. \n\nBy integrating population and complex trait genetics\, this study provides insights into how population history shapes genetic architecture and heritability. Our findings improve understanding of genetic studies in diverse populations\, enabling more accurate biomedical applications and personalized medicine strategies. \n\nAbout The Tools & Technology Seminar Series\n\nThe DCMB Tools and Technology Seminar Series is held in Palmer Commons\, Room 2036\, each Thursday at 12pm EST. Each seminar highlights a computational tool\, technology\, or methodology that is under development or in current use and is of special interest to DCMB and University researchers. Presenters are U-M researchers and students.\n\nThese seminars are live-streamed and recorded and made available for future viewing via the DCMB YouTube Channel.

SUMMARY:Presentation:Museums at Two presentation
DESCRIPTION:Presentation by Alexandria Rayburn (Museum Studies Program alumni\; PhD\, Information)\n\nMuseum collections are many things\, but primarily they function as repositories of information\, where data-intensive work has been conducted for decades. Like other knowledge infrastructures\, the information in museum collections is built on installed bases and require highly skilled technicians to maintain these long-lasting digital systems. However\, in representations of this computing work\, women's voices and perspectives are under-appreciated\, even though they have significant labor contributions in this area. \n\nMy dissertation examines the experiences of women working in computing roles within museum collections and seeks to understand their unique approaches to data management. Drawing from this research\, this talk will explore some of the early gendered data practices at both the Smithsonian Institution and the Metropolitan Museum of Art— two highly regarded institutions whose leadership in early museum computing has had lasting implications on museum best practices\, and the value given to computing tasks like data entry.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:In Search of Wellness: Social media influencers and the transformation of an industry
DESCRIPTION:For more than a decade\, social media influencers have shared their lives with captive audiences hungry to consume entertaining\, aspirational\, and educational content from popular users deemed to be “just like us.” What started as a hobby for many\, has turned into a career for those most adept at navigating technological advances alongside follower expectations. As the influencer industry professionalized in the United States\, niche creators emerged and have become central figures in the lives of individuals looking to restore their health and enhance their well-being. In her talk\, Dr. Mariah L Wellman draws on her current book project to describe the phenomenon of wellness influencers and how they’ve risen to prominence. She details the role of authenticity and expertise in establishing authority within the digital wellness space and the strategies influencers use to spread health information. Finally\, Dr. Wellman discusses the increase in online health misinformation and the rise in institutional experts flocking to social media to debunk influencer-created content.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Regression Discontinuity Design with Distribution-Valued Outcomes
DESCRIPTION:This article introduces a regression discontinuity design for distribution-valued outcomes (R3D)\, extending the standard RDD framework to settings where outcomes are entire distributions rather than single values. This arises when treatment is assigned at the group level (e.g.\, firms\, schools) but the objects of interest are within-group distributions (e.g.\, employee wages\, student test scores). Standard RDDs are not designed for this two-level structure\, as they assume scalar outcomes observed at the same level as treatment assignment. To address this\, I develop a novel approach based on random distributions and show that\, under a mild continuity condition on the average quantile function\, the jump at the cutoff identifies a local average quantile treatment effect. To estimate it\, I propose a distribution-valued local polynomial estimator\, which fits the full quantile curve with a single bandwidth\, avoids quantile crossing\, and yields a meaningful “average distribution”. I derive uniform asymptotic normality\, valid multiplier bootstrap confidence bands\, and a data-driven bandwidth selection method. Simulations demonstrate strong performance and reveal that standard quantile RDD is biased and inconsistent in this setting. An application to U.S. gubernatorial close elections (1984–2010) uncovers an equality–efficiency trade-off under Democratic control\, driven by income reductions at the top of the distribution.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:IOE 899 - Vijay G. Subramanian
DESCRIPTION:Presenter Bio:\n\nVijay Subramanian is a Professor in the ECE Division of the EECS Department at the University of Michigan\, Ann Arbor\; from Fall 2014 to Summer 2024\, he was an Associate Professor at the same institution. He received the Ph.D. degree in electrical engineering from the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign\,  Champaign\, IL\, USA\, in 1999. He worked at Motorola Inc.\, the Hamilton Institute\, Maynooth\, Ireland\, and the EECS Department\, Northwestern University\, Evanston\, IL\, USA\; he also held an Adjunct Research Associate Professor in CSL and ECE at UIUC. His current research interests are in stochastic analysis\, random graphs\, multi-agent systems\, and game theory (mechanism and information design) with applications to social\, economic\, and technological networks.\n\nAbstract:\n\nMulti-agent systems appear in many engineering and socioeconomic settings\, wherein a group of agents or controllers interact with each other in a shared and possibly non-stationary environment\, and make sequential decisions based on their own information using a (causal) interaction mechanism. \n\nIn this talk\, we focus attention on cooperative sequential decision making under uncertainty—a decentralized team\, where a fixed finite number of agents act as a team with the common goal of minimizing a long-term cost function. We investigate the general situation where one long-term (objective) cost must be minimized\, while maintaining multiple other long-term (constraint) costs within prescribed limits via a cooperative Multi-Agent Constrained Partially Observable Markov Decision Process (MAC-POMDP) model. Such constrained sequential team decision problems arise in several real-world applications where efficient operation must be balanced with maintaining safe operating margins—such considerations arise in communication networks\, traffic management\, energy-grid optimization\, e-commerce pricing\, environmental monitoring\, etc.\n\nWe focus on the discounted cost criterion\, and start by establishing general results on Lagrangian duality and the existence of a global saddle-point. Next\, we consider decentralized policy-profiles and their mixtures\, and establish that when agents mix jointly over their policy-profiles\, there is no (Lagrangian) duality gap\, and a global saddle point exists under the Slater's condition. However\, when agents mix independently over their policy-profiles\, we show (through a concrete counterexample) that a non-zero duality gap can exist. Then\, we consider coordination policies and their mixtures\, and establish that\, except for pure coordination policies\, they are all equivalent to joint mixtures of decentralized policy-profiles. This equivalence result helps reformulate the original multi-agent constrained optimization problem into a single-agent constrained optimization problem\, which is then used to propose a primal-dual framework for model-based optimal control. Finally\, we extend the notion of a Multi-Agent Approximate Information State (MA-AIS) to constrained decision making\, and formalize MA-AIS based coordination policies and their mixtures. We establish through a concrete counter-example that\, (in contrast to behavioral coordination policies)\, MA-AIS based behavioral coordination policies and their mixtures are not equivalent. We also establish approximate optimality of mixtures of MA-AIS based coordination policies\, and use this result to guide the development of a data-driven alternative for the aforementioned model-based primal-dual framework.\n\nThis is joint work with Nouman Khan\, Amazon Search\, Seattle\, WA\, which was carried out when he was a PhD student at the University of Michigan\, Ann Arbor.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Biomedical Engineering Seminar Series
DESCRIPTION:Abstract:\nThe nascent field of microrobotics is experiencing a “Cambrian explosion” before our very eyes. Potential applications for these diminutive devices span an array of fields\, including healthcare\, exploration\, environmental monitoring\, search and rescue\, industrial maintenance\, and digital agriculture. However\, the design of microrobotics systems is inherently tied to scaling-law constraints\; as length scales decrease\, surface forces and viscous forces (among others) begin to dominate inertial forces. This leads to fabrication bottlenecks\, struggles with energy/power autonomy\, and the need for specialized and often unconventional actuators. \n\nIn this talk\, I will present three unconventional microactuators developed in my own group. Each leverages distinct physical principles to achieve high forces\, frequencies\, power densities\, and integration potential in microrobotic platforms. These innovations highlight both the limitations imposed by microscale regimes and the opportunities that emerge when we embrace nontraditional transduction mechanisms for locomotion and manipulation.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:IES Energy Seminar Series - From Retirement to Reuse: Unlocking the Full Potential of EV Batteries in Stationary Storage
DESCRIPTION:Abstract: \nMillions of electric vehicle (EV) batteries are projected to retire over the next decade\, often retaining substantial capacity left. Repurposing these batteries offers a promising solution to address challenges in the battery industry\, including raw material scarcity\, supply chain constraints\, and the need for a circular economy. However\, current EV batteries mainly retire after their performance becomes unsatisfactory\, leading to heterogeneous health conditions that diversify lifetime during second use. There is a clear need for guidance on reuse strategies to maximize their whole-lifecycle value\, including reuse in lower-demand applications. Here\, we assess over 101\,000 active retirement-reuse-retirement scenarios for EV batteries across popular stationary energy storage applications. The whole-lifecycle value of EV batteries is quantified using real-world data from EV batteries and their digital twins. For EV batteries retired at different mileages\, we simulated their remaining useful life under realistic second-use applications. The tradeoff between first-life benefits and second-lifetime benefits is analyzed\, and recommendations for selecting second-use applications based on first-life usage conditions are investigated. Our results demonstrate the feasibility of repurposing retired EV batteries and underscore the importance of whole-lifecycle management to enhance circular economy.\n\nBiography:\nZiyou Song is an Assistant Professor in the Department of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science at the University of Michigan\, Ann Arbor.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:The Department of Astronomy 2025-2026 Colloquium Series Presents:
DESCRIPTION:\"Connecting planetary properties with formation: a new paradigm emerges\"\n\nAbstract: One of the central challenges facing planet formation theory is in understanding how  observed planetary properties – their masses\, orbital characteristics\, bulk properties and atmospheric compositions – are connected to their formation in host protoplanetary disks (PPDs).   Forming planets accrete pebbles\, planetesimals\, and gas with a wide range of chemical compositions as they migrate through their  evolving PPDs.   Essential to these processes  is how angular momentum is transported and removed from disks.  Recent powerful MHD simulations and a wide range of ALMA and JWST observations  confirm that MHD disk winds and not disk turbulence likely  play the dominant role.   In this talk\, I will review these advances\, their consequences for a new paradigm for planet formation\, and discuss several current projects in my group on the effects of such winds on planetary populations and planetary properties such as their mass-radius relations.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Technology of Liberation or Control?: The Asymmetric Effects of the Internet on Political Conflict
DESCRIPTION:Over the past two decades\, the internet and social media have expanded rapidly to all corners of the world. While these new technologies have liberalized access to information and communication channels\, they have also introduced new platforms for surveillance and propaganda. As such\, the internet can be characterized as a ``double-edged sword'' for society\, introducing new freedoms as well as oppressions. This duality is perhaps most evident in the case of Myanmar\, where a majority of the population was first exposed to the internet within the past ten years. In this paper\, we estimate the effects of the internet empirically by exploiting geographic variation in access as well as temporal shocks to exposure. We find that reducing internet access leads to a reduction in the prevalence of demonstrations---but not other forms of political conflict---during the months following a military coup. However\, as internet freedoms are eroded\, the effect on protest activity disappears\, and we argue that this shift can be explained by a change in the nature of political discourse online. Moreover\, in the long run\, we find that internet access is associated with more political violence and higher levels of military control across Myanmar. Taken together\, our results show that the internet can serve as both a tool of liberalization and oppression\, conditional on the government's capacity to monitor and exert influence over the network. These findings are especially relevant for developing economies in which widespread internet access is relatively recent\, as these advances may not necessarily be beneficial for democracy movements.

SUMMARY:Social / Informal Gathering:Dinner & Sneak Peek: Existing Differently Regional Summit
DESCRIPTION:Visionary Organizing is an approach to solving social\, individual\, community\, and organizational problems that equally emphasizes our material needs for survival and our nonmaterial needs for thriving. It solves problems by applying six components to a problem and facilitates change by nurturing interdependence\, transforming relationships\, and creating new systems that can replace what already exists. \n\nCollege students are faced with a serious set of problems. They have to navigate an unpredictable economy\, an ever-evolving relationship with technology\, a changing climate\, and weakening social ties. Solving these problems requires skills that empower them to become leaders who can make their material needs for survival and their nonmaterial needs for well-being equally important. \n\nTo support student leadership development\, Visionary Organizing Lab and Student Life Sustainability at the University of Michigan are partnering to host the Great Lakes Regional Training in Visionary Organizing—a 4.5-day immersive experience in Ann Arbor\, Michigan. This training is open to undergraduate students from midwestern universities who are curious about social change or already engaged in addressing social and community challenges.\n\nOur vision is to support a generation of students who can leave campus and practice Visionary Organizing in communities and organizations with others.\n\n**Dinner will be served**

SUMMARY:Exhibition:2025 Second Year Studio Exhibition
DESCRIPTION:August 18 - October 24\, 2025Exhibition Reception: September 11\, 3-5 p.m.\n\"In their second year\, Stamps students complete a major milestone: Second Year Studio (SYS). It’s a course where\, per the syllabus\, students 'develop the capacity to work independently by identifying\, exploring\, and pursuing a single independent project that involves multiple iterations.' Each student takes their own path\, encountering questions that can shape the direction of their creative practice—how do I manage my time? How much constraint vs. freedom do I thrive on? What subject matter do I care about most deeply? How do my ideas about my future goals intersect with the work I want to make now? At the end of the semester\, students formally report on their experience in a presentation called the Sophomore Review\, and a faculty panel offers individualized feedback. \nUntil now\, the classroom studios and review rooms have been the only place to catch a glimpse of the art and design work resulting from this pivotal course. Last year\, Associate Dean for Academic Programs Rebecca Strzelec proposed something new: an exhibition installed throughout the Art &amp\; Architecture Building during the summer that would celebrate Second Year Studio work and help to welcome the community back in the Fall. This inaugural 2025 Second Year Studio Exhibition showcases our rising third-years and transfer students\, and invites first-years and other newcomers to explore both the building\, and the creative possibilities ahead. The show features 44 students who have volunteered to participate\, yet it honors every Stamps major who reaches the SYS milestone. \nThe pieces on view span a wide array of media and capture a specific moment in each maker’s path—experiments in previously unfamiliar methods\, emergent passions\, creative risks taken\, iterations and reiterations\, and the seeds of so much future work.\"\n- Sally Clegg\, Lecturer and Student Exhibitions Coordinator\nExhibiting Artists and Designers\n\nRobin Beaney\nAdi Behar\nDavid Byun\nZoë Corley\nChloe Dennis\nViktoriya Finyak\nMaria Elena García-Murguía\nElisa Gasser\nOlivia Glynn\nRoe Halbert\nNadav Havilio\nDee Holmes\nRuby Hough\nUrvi Joshi\nEunice Kim\nHannah Kryzhan\nBen Levitsky\nJoyce Liu\nKatelyn Ma\nAlexandria Mainor\nErin Malone\nSummer Mansi\nCheyenne Moore\nElla Moxon\nShafiq Muqit\nAlex Nguyen\nAnna Noh\nLeanna Mokihana Paik\nEva Park\nMichelle Peng\nEliana Pettigrew\nZainab Rahmani\nOlivia Reed\nSky Roberts\nZachary Sebestyen\nOliver Lee St Cyr\nSophie Stillwagon\nVeronica Weinberg\nCaitlin Weingarden\nNala Arielle White\nAriel Williams\nSilas Williams\nKatherine Xu\nJoy Yang\n

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Consequence - Group Art Exhibition - Art as Environmental Activism
DESCRIPTION:This group exhibition is an in-depth exploration of the role of art as a powerful catalyst for environmental activism. At first glance\, these works each possess striking beauty. However\, a closer inspection reveals a profound and often unsettling depth that challenges one’s perceptions. \n\nThe artworks are imbued with many layers of meaning\, inviting us to engage critically with the themes presented and encouraging us to reflect on our often-fraught relationship with the natural world.   Through a variety of mediums and techniques\, these works prompt us to confront uncomfortable truths about climate change\, habitat loss\, and the disappearing biodiversity around us. \n\nCampbell’s captivating “Heatscape” series transforms what is often an intangible concept into the tangible realm by visually translating heat distribution data to depict the impact of urban design on climate.  This series offers a profound exploration of the intriguing phenomenon known as \"urban heat islands”\, a term that describes urban areas that absorb and radiate significantly more heat than their surrounding rural landscapes due to human activities and infrastructure.\n\n“Heatscape” invites us to engage in a deeper reflection about the profound impact that human ingenuity has wielded over the natural world\, serving as a visual reminder of our responsibility to urban design that is considerate to the environment and communities it impacts. This work challenges us to recognize the interplay between our lifestyles and the environment\, urging a dialogue about sustainable practices that could mitigate the effects of these heat islands.\n\nSnider’s work powerfully illustrates the remnants of industrialization\, capturing the unsettling essence of its aftermath. In his art\, we encounter an urban landscape that is strikingly devoid of human presence\, creating an almost haunting atmosphere. This absence of people amplifies the eerie feeling and serves as a warning about the enduring consequences of industrial progress. It prompts viewers to reflect on the environmental impact and the transformations that society has undergone\, urging us to consider what aspects of our world will persist in the wake of such change. Ultimately\, Snider’s poignant depictions challenge us to confront the stark reality of a landscape altered by human activity\, inviting contemplation on both the beauty and the desolation that can coexist in our modern environments.\n\nSandra Osip’s sculptures delve deeply into the juxtaposition of decay and destruction alongside the concepts of life and growth. Through her abstract structures\, she illustrates the profound effects climate change has on our urban landscapes and the planet as a whole. These pieces serve as a poignant reminder of the delicate balance between nature and human impact\, while Osip’s imaginative flowers evoke a sense of nostalgia and loss\, symbolizing the beauty of what has been irretrievably diminished in our world. By celebrating these natural forms\, she not only honors the richness of biodiversity but also raises awareness about the environmental crisis we face.\n\nCassells’ work not only celebrates a profound connection to nature and sustainable practices but also serves to illuminate the significant impact that climate change has on vulnerable communities. Through her art\, she investigates the intricate relationships between different environmental systems\, emphasizing how they are all interconnected. \n\nBy delving into these themes\, Cassells sheds light on the challenges faced by communities that often bear the brunt of climate change despite contributing the least to the problem. Her exploration encourages a deeper understanding of how environmental changes affect social structures and the lives of people in marginalized areas. In doing so\, she advocates for greater awareness and action to address these issues\, ultimately promoting a more sustainable and equitable future for all. \n\nShanna Merola’s photo-collages are informed by the stories of environmental justice struggles past and present.  Shanna Merola and Halima Afi Cassells collaborated on collage and interactive installations for over five years. Researching\, wandering\, photographing\, and creating together while interrogating the interconnectedness of environmental degradation\, and global corporatism\, and community response.\n\nSobel takes a more straightforward approach by helping us begin to grasp the reality of living in a world affected by climate change.  Her work described as “wilderness-based\, science-inspired”\, serves as a bridge\, connecting viewers to experiences that might seem too distant or unfolding too slowly for most people to comprehend firsthand. In doing so\, she not only raises awareness but also encourages dialogue about the pressing challenges our planet faces. Through her work\, Sobel facilitates a deeper understanding of the interconnection between humanity and the environment\, compelling us to reflect on our role in addressing these urgent issues.\n\nThese diverse approaches to creating art serve as powerful connections to the most critical and pressing environmental issues of our time. This engagement serves to deepen our understanding of these challenges from multiple perspectives\, including cultural\, social\, and scientific viewpoints.  \nFurthermore\, these approaches are not only meant to inform but also to inspire. They challenge us to reconsider our relationship with the planet and encourage us to take actionable steps toward sustainability.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Cathy Barry Art Exhibition
DESCRIPTION:Cathy Barry has a profound connection to the natural world\, which has shaped her artistic journey. She focuses on expressing gratitude\, compassion\, and a sense of responsibility towards environmental protection. After years of working with traditional media such as oil\, acrylic\, and watercolor\, her art is transitioning to more sustainable materials. The pigments she uses in her collages are sourced entirely from plants\, all collected and processed by Cathy herself from various locations throughout Michigan. This natural paint has become a vital part of her expressive palette\, driving her to approach her work with a renewed sense of integrity and awareness of our interconnected ecosystem.\n\nIn her collages\, Cathy skillfully combines paper painted with her homemade botanical pigments and intricately punched shapes\, creating a distinctive micro-scale vocabulary. These miniature worlds are thoughtfully assembled within larger contexts\, challenging our perceptions of the universe and our place within it.\n\nRecently\, Cathy has embarked on a new adventure: creating art directly from plant materials. By collecting\, drying\, and weaving leaves\, she has developed an exciting rhythm in her process. Through simple weaving\, twining\, and basketry techniques\, she has deepened her enthusiasm for and connection to the plants surrounding her in her yard and neighborhood. This integration of materials with form and subject in her work evokes a serene wholeness that reflects nature's inherent wisdom. Additionally\, her journey has sparked a curiosity to explore the historical uses and roles of plants throughout history.\n\nCathy Barry is an artist and instructor living and working in Ann Arbor\, Mi. She is a Lecturer in the University of Michigan (UM) Stamps School of Art and Design\, the UM Program in the Environment and the UM Biological Station.

SUMMARY:Conference / Symposium:Complexity in the Social World: The Challenging Case of Structural Racism
DESCRIPTION:This two-day conference will examine how interdisciplinary collaboration can inform our understanding of structural racism and the way we think about complex topics.\n\nPlease register to attend at https://myumi.ch/2rxWR. Early career scholars may apply for travel awards by Sept. 12\, 2025 at https://myumi.ch/z9je9.\n\n\nThe challenge: With the growth of both big data availability and computing power\, there has been a rapid increase in new methods to understanding complexity in the social world. However\, there may not have been a concurrent growth in the foundations of scientific inquiry\, including complex thinking\, broad causal thinking\, and an integration of theories and frameworks across disciplines to guide empirical tests. Further\, evidence suggests that the academic research model\, with its resource-segregated networks\, narrow scientific\, discipline-specific training\, and focus on measures of short-term productivity\, contributes to a fragmented and even misleading understanding of the social world.\n\nThe rapid growth in racial inequities research through the concept of ‘structural racism’ is a case study in the challenges that arise without a thorough integration of theories drawn from source humanities and humanities-informed social science and with an academic model built on segregated resources that prioritizes short-term products. What has resulted is a literature that\, at times\, sidesteps difficult questions on how to understand the interconnected systems and processes that link racial patterns in social\, economic\, and political life over place and time. \n\nSymposium purpose: This meeting is intended to address the challenges to the social science literature on race and the concept of structural racism. We will convene discussions about social scientific inquiry\, the limitations of the academic research model\, and innovative approaches to the study of racial patterns and inequities while working to desegregate research networks.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:ICE in the Heartland: Community Impacts of Worksite Immigration Raids
DESCRIPTION:ICE in the Heartland showcases a multifaceted project that gathers and disseminates the stories of communities impacted by immigration worksite raids with the aim of bringing underrepresented narratives to news media\, classroom\, and public discourse. This project comprises qualitative public health research conducted in impacted communities and visual arts generated from the research outcomes. Research teams of graduate and undergraduate students from the University of Michigan\, led by Professor William Lopez\, and the University of Iowa\, led by Professor Nicole Novak\, collaborated with a range of community members and organizers at sites of six large-scale immigration worksite raids that occurred in 2018 in Iowa\, Nebraska\, Ohio\, Tennessee\, and Texas. The researchers visited these sites\, spoke to advocates\, detainees\, their families\, and other community members. In conversation with the seventy-seven interviews\, artists Dalia Harris and Carolina Jones Ortiz generated ten images that comprise ICE in the Heartland. On display with the artworks are community member testimonies\, analysis on the public health detriments to immigration worksite raids and deportation\, insights to the artists’ methods\, and the curricular materials used in public outreach programs. \n\nHosted and sponsored by the Institute for Research on Women and Gender and the Department of Women’s and Gender Studies\, U-M.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Centralizing Procurement: The Roles of Scale\, Selection\, and Variety
DESCRIPTION:Centralized procurement intends to increase efficiency by reducing upstream market power through scale effects but may decrease variety and thus fail to accommodate buyers with heterogeneous preferences. Moreover\, buyer voluntary participation may result in adverse selection into intermediation when costs are heterogeneous\, limiting its gains. We study these mechanisms in the context of drug public procurement in Chile. Through a combination of reduced-form analyses and a structural model\, we find sizable scale effects\, substantial preference heterogeneity\, and cost heterogeneity. We use our model to evaluate the impacts of voluntary centralized procurement and the desirability of introducing minimum centralized procurement mandates.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Statistics Department Seminar Series: Qing Qu\, Assistant Professor\, Electrical Engineering and Computer Science\, University of Michigan
DESCRIPTION:Abstract: Recent empirical studies have shown that diffusion models possess a unique reproducibility property\, transiting from memorization to generalization as the number of training samples increases. This demonstrates that diffusion models can effectively learn image distributions and generate new samples. Remarkably\, these models achieve this even with a small number of training samples\, despite the challenge of large image dimensions\, effectively circumventing the curse of dimensionality. In this work\, we provide theoretical insights into this phenomenon by leveraging two key empirical observations: (i) the low intrinsic dimensionality of image datasets and (ii) the low-rank property of the denoising autoencoder in trained diffusion models. With these setups\, we rigorously demonstrate that optimizing the training loss of diffusion models is equivalent to solving the canonical subspace clustering problem across the training samples. This insight has practical implications for training and controlling diffusion models. Specifically\, it enables us to precisely characterize the minimal number of samples necessary for accurately learning the low-rank data support\, shedding light on the phase transition from memorization to generalization. Additionally\, we empirically establish a correspondence between the subspaces and the semantic representations of image data\, which enables one-step\, transferrable\, efficient image editing. Moreover\, our results have profound practical implications for training efficiency and model safety\, and they also open up numerous intriguing theoretical questions for future research.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Stacey L. Kirby: The Bureau of Personal Belonging (Ann Arbor Edition)
DESCRIPTION:Exhibition Dates: September 27 - November 8\, 2025\nOpening Performances: September 27\, 1-5 p.m.Closing Performances: November 8\, 1-5 p.m.\nStacey L. Kirby’s The Bureau of Personal Belonging is a series of interactive performances set within immersive installations and activated by viewer participation. The work fosters dialogue on identity\, community\, and civil engagement. Through bureaucratic forms\, papers\, postures\, language\, and aesthetics\, audiences are invited to participate in respectful dialogues and playful interactions with the artist. As the 2025 Roman J. Witt Artist-in-Residence\, Kirby spent 12 weeks on campus from January through March of 2025 meeting with students\, faculty\, and staff from the Stamps School and across U-M. Based on these conversations\, Kirby devised a site-specific installation that seeks to amplify the voices of the U-M community\, uphold the value of democratic civic engagement\, and highlight the power of art in building solidarity and mutual respect.\nCurated by Srimoyee Mitra.
