A true icon of modern music\, Hancock has transcended limitations and genres while maintaining his unmistakable voice\, and there are few artists in the music industry who have had more influence on acoustic and electronic jazz and R&B.\n\nBorn in Chicago in 1940\, Hancock was a piano prodigy who performed a Mozart piano concerto with the Chicago Symphony Orchestra at age 11\, years before he began playing jazz. After Detroit trumpeter Donald Byrd recognized his talents as a 20-year-old\, he signed with Blue Note Records as a solo artist\; his 1963 album produced the hit “Watermelon Man\,” which marked him as an instant success story. A history-shaping tenure with the Miles Davis Quintet followed\, and he would later herald the birth of jazz fusion. In short\, he has been an integral part of every popular musical movement in the 50+ years since\, leaving an indelible imprint wherever he lands. This performance marks Hancock’s fourth UMS concert appearance since 2000 and his first since April 2015.

Over a century\, scholarly printers competed to produce carefully edited editions. As they produced more and more\, they developed methods\, such as page-layout and indices\, to make their books easy to read\, and they created dictionaries and reference books so a reader could get more from their books.\n\nThe Estienne family of printers are among the most renowned and long-lasting printing houses of the era. Family links and investment in scholarly training helped them to sustain a business in the print trade for six generations in France and Switzerland.\n\nThe Special Collections Research Center holds nearly 80 imprints dating from the first years of the sixteenth century into the reign of Louis XIV. View nineteen examples chosen to show the breadth of the Michigan Estienne collection in an era of amazing change.\n\nImage: Detail from \"Polemōnos\, Himeriou\, kai allōn tinōn meletai\,\" by Henri Estienne\, Paris 1567. The Olive tree device is the best-known emblem of the Estienne house\, surviving in over a dozen forms. First used by Robert I in 1526\, it refers to a passage in Romans 11 that praises humility in the face of divine will.

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 UID:140228-21886775@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/140228 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Art,Arts Initiative,Exhibition,Visual Arts LOCATION:Duderstadt Center - Gallery 1019 CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20260324T094536 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20251026T120000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20251026T160000 SUMMARY:Exhibition:Creating the Future of Medicine for 175 Years DESCRIPTION:As the Medical School celebrates the anniversary of its opening in the fall of 1850\, and Michigan Medicine marks the 100th anniversary of the opening of the \"Old Main\" University Hospital that served as its flagship from 1925 to 1986\, a free museum exhibit explores 175 years of medical education\, research and clinical care. \n\nOpen to the public at the Museum on Main Street operated by the Washtenaw County Historical Society\, the exhibit includes artifacts\, photos and facts about how U-M's medical community grew from humble beginnings on the Diag to become one of the nation's largest and most respected academic medical centers.

Developed in 1842\, the cyanotype process — so named because of the characteristic blue color of the prints — is one of the oldest photographic techniques. Inspired by early cyanotype practitioners like the botanist Anna Atkins\, participants will gather flora from Nichols Arboretum to create dynamic compositions of leaves\, nuts\, and flowers. Pre-coated cyanotype paper and all necessary supplies provided. The workshop is open to all UM students\, faculty\, and staff\; no prior experience required. \n\nArtist Bio: Angela Chen 陳勇氣 is a Taiwanese-American photo-based artist\, writer\, and educator from the ethnoburbs of the San Gabriel Valley\, California. Incorporating personal narrative\, alternative photographic processes\, and recycled and found material\, her practice enacts what she calls thinking and making with the ground–a process of sustained attention to place that is rooted in the photo walk. Her work foregrounds what is typically in the background\, showing how what we consider “beneath us” comprise multiple\, entangled\, more-than-human kin. She often prints her photographs on fabric dyed with foraged\, fallen material\, such as nuts and oak galls\, immersing her images in the specific ecologies in which they were taken. Angela is a graduate of the Yale School of Art\, where she was an Alice Kimball Traveling Fellow and Art and Social Justice Grantee.\n\nThis workshop is presented in partnership by U-M’s Matthei Botanical Gardens and Nichols Arboretum\, and the Arts Initiative.

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.

Over a century\, scholarly printers competed to produce carefully edited editions. As they produced more and more\, they developed methods\, such as page-layout and indices\, to make their books easy to read\, and they created dictionaries and reference books so a reader could get more from their books.\n\nThe Estienne family of printers are among the most renowned and long-lasting printing houses of the era. Family links and investment in scholarly training helped them to sustain a business in the print trade for six generations in France and Switzerland.\n\nThe Special Collections Research Center holds nearly 80 imprints dating from the first years of the sixteenth century into the reign of Louis XIV. View nineteen examples chosen to show the breadth of the Michigan Estienne collection in an era of amazing change.\n\nImage: Detail from \"Polemōnos\, Himeriou\, kai allōn tinōn meletai\,\" by Henri Estienne\, Paris 1567. The Olive tree device is the best-known emblem of the Estienne house\, surviving in over a dozen forms. First used by Robert I in 1526\, it refers to a passage in Romans 11 that praises humility in the face of divine will.

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.

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.

While IceCube has measured the flux of these neutrinos at energies up to several PeV\, much remains to be discovered regarding their origin and nature. Currently\, the discovery of point sources of neutrinos is hindered by atmospheric neutrino backgrounds\; likewise\, astrophysical neutrino flavor ratio measurements are limited by the difficulty of discriminating between electron and tau neutrinos. \n\nTAMBO is a next-generation neutrino telescope specifically designed to detect tau neutrinos in the 1-100 PeV energy range. This tau neutrino specificity enables the low-background identification of astrophysical neutrino sources\, as well as tests of the flavor ratio of astrophysical neutrinos. TAMBO will comprise an array of water Cherenkov and plastic scintillator detectors deployed on the face of the Colca Canyon in the Peruvian Andes\, with its unique geometry facilitating the high-purity measurement of astrophysical tau neutrinos. In this talk\, I will present the prospects of TAMBO in the context of next-generation neutrino observatories and provide an overview of its current status.

These racial inequities in relationship outcomes have been attributed\, in part\, to racism which “defines\, structures\, reinforces\, and constrains romantic relationships” (Landor & McNeil Smith\, 2023\, p. 7). The Integrative Model for the Study of Stress in Black Families (Murry et al.\, 2018) frames racism and the inequities that it produces as stressors for Black family relationships. Importantly\, romantic relationships can be a source of strength and resilience for Black Americans as they navigate shared experiences of racism-related stress\, including persistent discrepancies in access to resources that undergird racial inequities\, together. Black families’ existence and historical persistence in the face of racism suggests that individuals have consciously and unconsciously adapted behaviors and cognitions that can mitigate the adverse effects of racism. Importantly\, racism and racism-related stress is multidimensional its effects can be complicated by other intersecting oppressions (e.g.\, cis-sexism\, heterosexism\, classism).\n\nIn this talk\, Dr. TeKisha Rice Wallace will present published and ongoing work form her research on associations between racism-related stress\, individual wellbeing\, and relationship functioning among partnered Black Americans. In addition\, the talk will discuss how a macro-contextual stressor such as racism-related stress can be experienced as a relational stressor. The talk will conclude by reviewing the implications\, limitations\, and future directions for this field of research.\n\nDr. TeKisha Rice Wallace (she/her) is an Assistant Professor of Human Development and Family Science at Virginia Tech where she directs the Relationship Experiences: Strengths and Strains (REST) Lab. Using quantitative and qualitative methods\, her research examines the complex associations between social stressors\, individual wellbeing\, and relationship dynamics. Her research is driven by the belief that all people deserve to live long lives full of joy and authentic relationships that minimize the challenges of navigating inevitably hard times. Dr. Rice Wallace’s research has been recognized by the International Association for Relationship Research.\n\nAbout the series:\n\nHumans are social animals and from the earliest days of life\, are dependent on the quality of social relationships with significant others: family\, kin\, friends\, and a growing social network of online acquaintances. But\, how do we conduct research and come to understand the social processes transpiring in these significant social connections with others? What are the consequences for individual development and mental health outcomes of having close intimate relationships in one’s life? There is also a darker side to some relationships in the form of violence\, aggression\, and conflict. How do we study these processes? Social media and artificial intelligence have opened up new ways of thinking about “what is a social relationship?” and how many of these “friends” can one truly have.\n\nThe speakers for this series will focus on different types of social relationships\, spanning family and parent-child relationships\, friendships\, peer networks\, romantic relationships\, attachment relationships\, and the use of online media to maintain social connections. Although several speakers are senior scholars with extensive research backgrounds in the field\, many are junior scholars who are traversing new paths into the science of social relationships. Please join us Mondays to learn more about the exciting field of social relationships!\n\nThese events are held Mondays from 3:30 to 5.\nIn person: ISR Thompson 1430\, unless otherwise specified.\nOrganized by Brenda Volling and Richard Gonzalez.\nAs permissions allow\, seminars are later posted to our YouTube playlist.

Such approaches may some day lead to distributed on-demand fertilizer production and enable ammonia to be used as a zero-carbon alternative fuel. Our group has had an ongoing interest in fundamental studies of well-defined synthetic catalysts that mediate nitrogen reduction (N2R) to ammonia (or hydrazine). We are especially interested in the operative mechanisms by which these catalysts operate. Most recently\, we have been pursuing the idea that proton-coupled electron transfer (PCET) pathways for N2R can be more thermally efficient than step-wise ET/PT pathways and have tested this hypothesis via the development of electrochemical PCET (ePCET) mediators driven at potentials sufficiently anodic that the competing hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) is mitigated. We have also designed related electrocatalytic strategies that exploit an ET instead of a PCET mediator. Relatedly\, we are studying catalytic systems that mediate photodriven and (photo)electrochemical N2R. Here\, visible light rather than temperature\, pressure\, or electrochemical potential\, provides the primary driving force needed for catalytic ammonia generation. Again\, we are especially interested in the intimate mechanisms by which these various systems operate.

This is a functorial decomposition into free rank one Lagrangian submodules encoding Bloch-Kato subgroups and epsilon factors\, mirroring an underlying symplectic structure.\n\nThis local sign decomposition has local as well as global applications\, including compatibility of the Mazur-Rubin arithmetic local constants and epsilon factors\, and new cases of the parity conjecture. It also leads to a formulation and proof of an analogue of Rubin's conjecture over ramified quadratic extensions of Qp\, which initiates an integral Iwasawa theory for CM elliptic curves at primes of additive reduction.

Drawing from my book\, Mapping Neshnabe Futurity\, I examine how Indigenous knowledge systems—rooted in land-based ethics\, intergenerational responsibility\, and reciprocal relationships—function as sophisticated technologies for sustaining ecosystems and communities. Central to this approach are both women-led political movements and trickster methodologies. Figures like Nanabozho embody creativity\, misdirection\, and transformation\, showing how experimentation\, surprise\, and humor can drive innovation. Trickster thinking unsettles linear notions of progress\, inviting scientific practices that are adaptive\, relational\, and open to unexpected outcomes.\n\nRather than treating “technology” as merely mechanical or digital\, I highlight how Indigenous worldviews understand technology as relational: practices for maintaining balance between human and more-than-human worlds. Examples include sustainable water stewardship\, climate adaptation\, and culturally grounded mapping projects that foreground Anishinaabe languages and histories. By bringing Indigenous studies into conversation with STEM fields\, this talk argues for futures where scientific inquiry is inseparable from ethics of care and responsibility. Through Indigenous futurisms and trickster methodologies\, we can envision and build worlds that are innovative\, just\, and ecologically thriving.\n\nBlaire Morseau is a citizen of the Pokagon Band of Potawatomi Indians and Assistant Professor in the Department of Religious Studies at Michigan State University where she is also affiliate faculty in Digital Humanities and American Indian and Indigenous Studies. Before becoming a professor\, she worked as her tribe's first full-time archivist\, launching an online collections and dictionary website called Wiwkwébthëgen (We-oh-kweb-jug-gin) using Potawatomi cultural protocols of access and traditional knowledge labels. \n\nAs Co-Director of The Indigenous Chicago Project\, Blaire also helped shape the project's components which include oral histories\, digital maps\, curricular materials and more\, that explore the histories of the region\, centering Indigenous voices\, laying bare stories of settler-colonial harm\, and gesturing toward Indigenous futures. She recently released an edited volume featuring the collection of antique birch bark books written by nineteenth century Potawatomi author\, Simon Pokagon\, titled\, As Sacred to Us: Simon Pokagon’s Birch Bark Stories in their Contexts\, published by Michigan State University Press.\n\nDr. Morseau consults on various exhibitions and collaborative programming for archives\, libraries\, and museums around the country including the Field Museum of Natural History\, The Newberry Library\, and The Indiana University Museum of Archaeology and Anthropology. Her research interests are in Indigenous science fiction and futurisms\, traditional cultural and ecological knowledge\, digital heritage\, and Native counter-mapping. Her newest book project published in May 2025 with the University of Arizona Press\, is titled Mapping Neshnabé Futurity: Celestial Currents of Sovereignty in Potawatomi Skies\, Lands\, and Waters. The monograph investigates how Native peoples in the Great Lakes region leverage their traditional knowledge in environmental activism and in creative works of speculative fiction to reclaim Indigenous space and tribal sovereignty.

To each such polytope\, we can associate its f-vector\, which is the integer vector recording the number of faces of each dimension. McMullen conjectured that the f-vectors of simplicial polytopes are completely characterized by three strikingly simple conditions. The sufficiency of these conditions was proved by Billera and Lee\, and the necessity was proved by Stanley using Hodge theory.\nIn this talk\, we will review the construction of toric varieties from polytopes and intersection cohomology. We will then give a brief account of Stanley's proof of the necessity part of the g-conjecture.

A key driver has been the privatization of hospitals owned by local governments. Theory predicts that privatization will improve hospital profitability\, but may be socially inefficient. We test these predictions empirically by leveraging all 254 privatizations that occurred between 2001 and 2018. Privatization increases hospital profitability\, eliminating the need for subsidies. However\, we also find a reduction in access for Medicaid patients and an increase in mortality among elderly Medicare patients. On average\, privatization generates $0.6 million in savings per additional death.

Johnson\n\nBaby Man\, the new album by Fruit Bats\, is like nothing else in Grammy-nominated songwriter Eric D. Johnson’s catalog. Little in the arc of his career—including Fruit Bats’ evolution from home recording project to rollicking roadshow\, his solo output\, and his work with Bonny Light Horseman—points the way to this album\, in which his only accompaniment\, aside from the occasional blush of synthesizer\, is a guitar\, banjo\, or piano. Save for producer Thom Monahan\, reuniting with Johnson for the first time since Fruit Bats’ 2019 breakthrough Gold Past Life\, it’s just Johnson in the room\, meaning that when the turntable’s needle meets Baby Man’s groove\, it’s just him and the listener\, mutually in for a reckoning.

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.

Over a century\, scholarly printers competed to produce carefully edited editions. As they produced more and more\, they developed methods\, such as page-layout and indices\, to make their books easy to read\, and they created dictionaries and reference books so a reader could get more from their books.\n\nThe Estienne family of printers are among the most renowned and long-lasting printing houses of the era. Family links and investment in scholarly training helped them to sustain a business in the print trade for six generations in France and Switzerland.\n\nThe Special Collections Research Center holds nearly 80 imprints dating from the first years of the sixteenth century into the reign of Louis XIV. View nineteen examples chosen to show the breadth of the Michigan Estienne collection in an era of amazing change.\n\nImage: Detail from \"Polemōnos\, Himeriou\, kai allōn tinōn meletai\,\" by Henri Estienne\, Paris 1567. The Olive tree device is the best-known emblem of the Estienne house\, surviving in over a dozen forms. First used by Robert I in 1526\, it refers to a passage in Romans 11 that praises humility in the face of divine will.

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.

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.

These declines are primarily driven by job separations. We build an equilibrium model of labor market search that quantitatively replicates the observed heterogeneity in labor market dynamics across worker earnings levels. Our findings underscore the role of time-varying risk premia as a key driver of labor market fluctuations and highlight the importance of both the job creation and the job destruction margins in understanding the heterogeneity in worker outcomes over the business cycle.

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 UID:140228-21886777@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/140228 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Art,Arts Initiative,Exhibition,Visual Arts LOCATION:Duderstadt Center - Gallery 1019 CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20250804T182644 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20251028T120000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20251028T130000 SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Dos and Don’ts of Disability Disclosure: Updated Edition DESCRIPTION:Join the Disability Equity Office for an updated workshop about the considerations for making disability disclosures\, including the timing\, circumstances\, reasons for disability disclosures\, and the answers to frequently asked questions about disclosures.

One inhabitant\, the pitcher plant mosquito (Wyeomyia smithii)\, is an obligate symbiont of pitcher plants\, developing exclusively inside. By studying the top-down and bottom-up interactions between mosquitoes and aquatic bacterial communities I explore feedbacks between a host organism and its environmentally-acquired microbiota. These cross-trophic interactions have consequences for host fitness and broader ecosystem function. Additionally\, I study host-microbe interactions in the context of mosquito diapause (a hibernation-like state)\, where I explore microbiome-mediated coordination of host seasonal metabolism.

Most were lost. A recent discovery (2023) of a set of its “ancient musical instruments” donated to the Deutsches Museum\, Munich in 1925 has prompted new inquiries of the subtle relation between musical revivalism and reformism. This lecture probes Datong’s negotiation between historical allusion and experimental modification\, theorizing its ancient music program as an invention of “heritage” that reveals the meaning and problematics of music in early Chinese modernity.\n \n Joys HY Cheung (Ph.D. in Musicology/Ethnomusicology\, University of Michigan\; MM in Ethnomusicology\, University of Texas) is an associate professor at the Graduate Institute of Ethnomusicology\, National Taiwan Normal University. Her research has focused on the field of “music” in Chinese modernity emerging from interwar Shanghai\, including issues of translated modernity\, networks\, the sublime\, qin listening\, historiography\, and heritage negotiations. Her recent publications include \"The Art Song of East Asia and Australia\, 1900-1950\" (co-edited with Alison Tokita\, Routledge\, 2023)\, and “Making Chinese Instrumental Relics in Pre-UNESCO Modernity: Datong Music Society’s ‘Heritage’ Project” (Journal of Music Research 音樂研究\, Taipei). Her article “Riding the Wind with Mozart’s ‘Jupiter’ Symphony: The Kantian and Daoist Sublimes in Chinese Musical Modernity” (Music & Letters\, UK\, 2015) received the Rulan Chao Pian Publication Prize in 2016. With her recent discovery of a set of Chinese musical instruments donated by the Datong Music Society to Deutsches Museum in Munich\, Germany in 1925\, she has initiated a collaborative exhibit and research project between her institution and the Deutsches Museum. She was a scholar-in-residence at the Deutsches Museum\, May to July 2025.

She will discuss the core ideas from her book\, \"The Doors You Can Open\,\" sharing how looking for opportunities to be a sponsor – rather than a beneficiary of sponsorship – can change how we approach our relationships\, build trust\, and elevate others\, ourselves\, and our communities.\n\nAbout Chow: \nRosalind Chow is an associate professor of Organizational Behavior and Theory at Carnegie Mellon University. Her research\, teaching\, and writing focus on how we all participate in social systems in ways that have implications for the maintenance or attenuation of inequity. Her current research focuses on how people can use their social connections to elevate others via sponsorship.

While the completion of a regular local ring is always a regular local ring\, Nagata gave an example of a normal local ring with non-reduced completion. As Heitmann showed\, there are even unique factorization domains with this property. These rings are quite hard to describe\, however\, and for good reason! Essentially any local ring that one can write down will be **excellent**\, meaning that properties like reducedness and normality are shared by the ring and its completion. We discuss a set of highly non-constructive techniques\, developed my Heitmann and others\, to study the fine details of the relationship between a ring and its completion\, allowing us to answer questions such as ``which rings are the completion of an integral domain?'' Lastly\, we mention a conjectural application of these techniques to the deformation of perfectoid purity in Gorenstein rings.

Since RNA function depends on its 3D structure and conformational changes\, research in this area focuses on the study of RNA structure along with its folding stability\, kinetics\, and interactions with metal ions and other molecules. Key questions include: How can the native fold be predicted from the sequence? For a given RNA target\, how can RNA-small molecule interactions be predicted and potential drug candidates identified? Developing computational tools to address these questions remains challenging due to limited RNA structural and binding data. To predict 3D structure from sequence\, we developed the Vfold pipeline by integrating statistical analysis of RNA structures and molecular dynamics simulations. The Vfold approach showed highly promising results at the international CASP16 competition for biomolecular structure predictions. To design RNA-targeted drugs\, we developed the RLDOCK and SPRank pipelines for physics-based and data-driven predictions of ligand-RNA interactions. These models may become useful tools for understanding the structure-based mechanism of RNA function and for accelerating RNA-targeted therapeutic discovery.

A focus of my research group is to extend plasma kinetic theories to treat conditions of strong Coulomb coupling\, strong magnetization\, or both. The work is largely motivated by topics in dense plasmas\, like inertial confinement fusion or dense astrophysical objects like white dwarfs or stellar interiors. However\, conditions of strong coupling and/or strong magnetization can also be created using table-top scale experiments developed in the AMO field. These have the advantage of a controlled and well-diagnosed platform to test the models. In this talk I will describe two categories of experiments (conducted by others) that we have used to validate our theories. The first is ultracold neutral plasmas. These are plasmas created in cold-atom traps (MOTs)\, where a plasma is produced by laser ionization and diagnosed using laser-induced fluorescence. These experiments produce strongly coupled plasmas in a charge-neutral state. The second is non-neutral plasmas confined in Penning traps. These are strongly magnetized plasmas that can range from weak to strong coupling. The past work has been productive\, but there is much more that could be done through collaboration between AMO and plasma physicists.\n\nBio:\nScott Baalrud is a Professor in Nuclear Engineering and Radiological Sciences at the University of Michigan.

In particular\, a hyperbolic 3–manifold with finitely generated fundamental group is uniquely determined by its topological type and its end invariants—geometric data encoded by the ending laminations on its boundary [1]. Both compressible and incompressible boundaries can occur. However\, in the compressible case—when a surface bounds a handlebody—not every lamination can arise as an ending lamination\; only those that are incompressible can.\n\nThis phenomenon was studied by Masur and Kerckhoff in the 1980s\, who showed that the mapping class group of a handlebody acts properly discontinuously on an open subset of the space of projective measured laminations [2]. This open set\, known as the Masur domain\, has full measure with respect to the Thurston measure and consists entirely of incompressible laminations [3]. In this talk\, we follow Masur and Kerckhoff’s approach to reproduce this result. Also\, we will see that it contains a beautiful application of train track theory.\n\nReference:\n[1] J. F.

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.

Over a century\, scholarly printers competed to produce carefully edited editions. As they produced more and more\, they developed methods\, such as page-layout and indices\, to make their books easy to read\, and they created dictionaries and reference books so a reader could get more from their books.\n\nThe Estienne family of printers are among the most renowned and long-lasting printing houses of the era. Family links and investment in scholarly training helped them to sustain a business in the print trade for six generations in France and Switzerland.\n\nThe Special Collections Research Center holds nearly 80 imprints dating from the first years of the sixteenth century into the reign of Louis XIV. View nineteen examples chosen to show the breadth of the Michigan Estienne collection in an era of amazing change.\n\nImage: Detail from \"Polemōnos\, Himeriou\, kai allōn tinōn meletai\,\" by Henri Estienne\, Paris 1567. The Olive tree device is the best-known emblem of the Estienne house\, surviving in over a dozen forms. First used by Robert I in 1526\, it refers to a passage in Romans 11 that praises humility in the face of divine will.

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.
