Geer\nAssociate Professor and Program Coordinator of American Sign Language and Deaf Studies at California State University\, Sacramento\n\nThis talk shares the justification for and methods and results from two studies of the family-centered\, routine-based curriculum called ASL at Home. Both studies used qualitative methodology\; the first examined providers’ perceptions of and experiences with using the curriculum while the second focused on the experiences of families who used the curriculum on their own. Using interview data from four teachers of the deaf\, one speech-language pathologist\, and one early childhood special education administrator\, the former found many positive experiences using the curriculum including having a structure to follow in one’s teaching\, the availability of the curriculum in Spanish\, and the inclusion of Deaf Community Cultural Wealth (DCCW). The inclusion of DCCW was especially important for hearing providers who reported the desire to provide authentic deaf input in their visits with families. The second study explored interview data from three parents of deaf children who independently used the family-centered curriculum. This study queried what factors families of young deaf children consider when selecting an ASL curriculum and (whether) to approach that curriculum on their own and how the ASL at Home curriculum supports families of young deaf children. ASL at Home supported these participants in their language-learning journey through 1) making the curriculum easily navigable between the book\, the website housing video and other resources\, and the workbook\; 2) through providing functional language\; 3) giving learners activities to apply what they’re learning\; and 4) giving learners permission to make mistakes.

Billions of dollars a year are spent on \"pipeline'' programs to increase diversity in STEM\, but there is little rigorous evidence of their efficacy. We fielded a randomized controlled trial to study a suite of such programs that are targeted to underrepresented high school students hosted at an elite\, technical institution. Students offered seats in the STEM summer programs are more likely to enroll in\, persist through\, and graduate from college. The programs also increase the likelihood that students graduate with a degree in a STEM field\, with the most intensive program increasing four-year graduation with a STEM degree by 33 percent. The shift to STEM degrees increases potential earnings by 2 to 6 percent. Program-induced gains in college quality account for the gains in graduation\, but gains in STEM degree attainment are larger than predicted based on institutional differences\n\nJoin Zoom Meeting\nhttps://umich.zoom.us/j/95418610585?pwd=Z0cvdkF1T0R2cG1lRDEvVmlnbVdlZz09\n\nMeeting ID: 954 1861 0585\nPasscode: 818420\nOne tap mobile\n+13017158592\,\,95418610585# US (Washington DC)\n+13092053325\,\,95418610585# US\n\nDial by your location\n +1 301 715 8592 US (Washington DC)\n +1 309 205 3325 US\n +1 312 626 6799 US (Chicago)\n +1 646 876 9923 US (New York)\n +1 646 931 3860 US\n +1 564 217 2000 US\n +1 669 444 9171 US\n +1 669 900 6833 US (San Jose)\n +1 719 359 4580 US\n +1 253 215 8782 US (Tacoma)\n +1 346 248 7799 US (Houston)\n +1 386 347 5053 US\n +1 647 374 4685 Canada\n +1 647 558 0588 Canada\n +1 778 907 2071 Canada\n +1 780 666 0144 Canada\n +1 204 272 7920 Canada\n +1 438 809 7799 Canada\n +1 587 328 1099 Canada\nMeeting ID: 954 1861 0585\nFind your local number: https://umich.zoom.us/u/aCRAyuQaT\n\nJoin by SIP\n95418610585@zoomcrc.com\n\nJoin by H.323\n162.255.37.11 (US West)\n162.255.36.11 (US East)\n115.114.131.7 (India Mumbai)\n115.114.115.7 (India Hyderabad)\n213.19.144.110 (Amsterdam Netherlands)\n213.244.140.110 (Germany)\n103.122.166.55 (Australia Sydney)\n103.122.167.55 (Australia Melbourne)\n149.137.40.110 (Singapore)\n64.211.144.160 (Brazil)\n149.137.68.253 (Mexico)\n69.174.57.160 (Canada Toronto)\n65.39.152.160 (Canada Vancouver)\n207.226.132.110 (Japan Tokyo)\n149.137.24.110 (Japan Osaka)\nMeeting ID: 954 1861 0585\nPasscode: 818420 UID:118657-21841373@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/118657 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Economics,Social Sciences,Sociology LOCATION:Institute For Social Research - 1430 CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20240219T112037 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20240219T120000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20240219T140000 SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Research-Based Strategies for Managing Impostor Phenomenon DESCRIPTION:Have you ever succeeded at an academic task even though you were convinced that you wouldn't do well?

The study population has been exposed to Islam and Christianity since the 1940s\, and multiple religions (the traditional Dogon religion\, Islam\, and Christianity) coexist within the same villages and patrilineages. Among these three religions\, the Dogon religion and Islam entailed greater participation expenses than did Christianity. Given that a man’s father practiced the traditional Dogon religion\, what factors caused him to stay with his father’s religion or to adopt a new religion? Using individual-level data on 570 men from nine villages\, we found that men from poorer families were more likely to adopt Christianity\, while men from wealthier families chose Islam or stayed with the Dogon religion. We propose that costly expenses of a religious community provide a Dogon man with a group of reciprocators that is well-defined with explicit mechanisms to monitor reputation and avenues through which to promote and enhance his status. The extent that each religion incorporates expenses to achieve these benefits\, however\, have different tradeoffs to poorer and wealthier individuals.\nIf you would like to meet with the speaker\, please click here to contact Erin Loomas.\n\nThe University of Michigan\nResearch Center for Group Dynamics\n\nInstitute for Social Research\n\n© 2023 The Regents of the University of Michigan UID:115984-21835976@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/115984 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Africa,African Studies,Anthropology,Social Sciences,Sociology LOCATION:Institute For Social Research - 1430 CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20240422T094238 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20240219T140000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20240219T170000 SUMMARY:Social / Informal Gathering:Study Hall @ The DSI\, WN'24 DESCRIPTION:We're back for Winter '24!

Chief among these are direct-detection experiments which use liquified noble gasses as their detection medium. \n\nIn this talk I will first describe direct searches for weak scale dark matter particles\, highlighting the most sensitive experiment of this type to date: the LUX ZEPLIN (LZ) experiment\, which uses liquid xenon as its detection medium. I will then discuss future efforts aimed at detecting dark matter lighter than the proton. These include an upgrade to dissolve hydrogen in LZ’s target volume (HydroX) and the development of a low threshold detector based on quasiparticle excitations of a superfluid helium-4 target (HeRALD). Taken together\, these experiments directly probe an entire class of extremely well-motivated models known as “thermal relics”: dark matter particles that were once in thermal equilibrium with ordinary matter in the early Universe.

His book on the ways that white nationalists use the Greco-Roman past to legitimize their hateful politics is forthcoming from Yale University Press.

Spohn\, who was able to compute the density of states for the Toda lattice by connecting it to the corresponding one of the Gaussian β ensemble\, a well known random matrix model. The computation of this quantity enabled him to apply the theory of generalized hydrodynamics\, so to compute the correlation functions for the Toda lattice.\nIn this talk\, I consider another integrable model\, namely the Ablowitz-Ladik lattice\; I introduce the Generalized Gibbs ensemble for this lattice\, and I relate it with the so-called Circular β ensemble\, a classical random matrix model for unitary matrices. This allows us to compute explicitly the density of states for the Ablowitz-Ladik lattice in terms of the one of this random matrix ensemble.\nThis talk is mainly based on these two papers:\n\nG. M. \, and T. Grava: Generalized Gibbs ensemble of the Ablowitz-Ladik lattice\, circular β- ensemble and double confluent Heun equation. Communication in Mathematical Physics. DOI: 10.1007/s00220-023-04642-8\n\nG. M.\, and R. Memin: Large Deviations for Ablowitz-Ladik lattice\, and the Schur flow. Electronic Journal of Probability.

Hadwiger's theorem is a variant of Helly-type theorems involving common transversals to families of convex sets instead of common intersections. In this talk\, we discuss these theorems\, as well as a quantitative and colorful version of Hadwiger's theorem on the plane.

Intermediation: Algorithms\, Homelessness\, and the Politics of Being In-Between. DESCRIPTION:Homelessness is a significant and growing crisis in the United States. In an effort to more efficiently and fairly distribute limited housing resources\, jurisdictions across the US have adopted algorithmic prioritization systems to help select which unhoused people should receive resources. In this talk\, we discuss how frontline bureaucrats mediate between the rigidity of the homeless services infrastructure and the messy social worlds of people experiencing homelessness. Drawing on theories of translation and articulation work\, the paper proposes “intermediation” as a means of understanding the position and labor of being in-between an infrastructure and the social worlds it intersects.

His interests include Spanish and Latin American Cinema\, Visual Culture\, Gender Studies\, Queer Theory\, Psychoanalysis\, Trauma and Memory. Among his books are Aesthetics\, Ethics\, and Trauma in the Cinema of Pedro Almodovar (2017) and Queering Buñuel: Sexual Dissidence and Psychoanalysis in his Mexican and Spanish Cinema (2008).\n\nThe aim of this paper is twofold. On the one hand\, this talk will reflect on Bracha L. Ettinger´s matrixial psychoanalysis´ explicit and implicit contribution to feminist and queer theory\, and transgender studies by focusing on the representation and creation of affective relationships and border spaces of co-emergence and co-affection\, thus creating and allegorizing trans-subjective encounters between artistic practices and spectators. This talk will present some of the aesthetic\, ethical\, and political implications underpinning Ettingerian psychoanalysis by emphasizing the dialogue and the productive tensions between Ettinger’s theoretical propositions and one of her most important interlocutors\, namely Lacan. On the other hand\, this paper focuses on finitude\, mourning\, and trans-subjectivity to offer a historical and theoretical account of how Spanish and Latin American visual artists and filmmakers have reflected\, responded to\, or remembered the AIDS epidemic since the 1980s. Drawing on Ettinger’s matrixial psychoanalysis\, my talk conceives queer art and cinema of the 1980s and 1990s as a trans-subjective encounter between the spectator and the traces of individual and collective trauma that moves us beyond our individual and finite limits of ego\, identity\, and body. Emphasizing the transformative aesthetic\, ethical\, and political potential of this kind of trans-subjective mourning\, my paper uses Ettinger’s term “wit(h)ness”—that is\, bearing witness to and with the other—to describe how Spanish and Latin American queer artists and filmmakers of the 1980s and ‘90s used their art and cinema to engage audiences in a trans-subjective processing of the traumas associated with the loss\, illness\, and mortality exposed by the AIDS virus\, while simultaneously gesturing towards an aesthetic\, ethical\, and political transformation in the way that individuals relate to each other.

The Fight of Our Lives DESCRIPTION:Iuliia Mendel is a Ukrainian journalist\, whose work has appeared in The *New York Times\, The Washington Post\, Politico Europe*\, and many other prominent media outlets. In 2019\, she was selected from a pool of around 4\,000 applicants for the position of Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy’s Press-Secretary\, a post she held for over two years until spring 2021.\n\n Mendel had a front row seat to many of the key events preceding the 2022 Russian invasion. She attended meetings between Zelenskyy and Putin and other European leaders\, visited the front lines in Donbas\, as well as fielded press inquiries after the infamous phone calls between Donald Trump and Zelenskyy that led to Trump’s first impeachment.\n\n Mendel saw firsthand efforts to transform her country from a poor\, backward Soviet state into a vibrant\, prosperous European democracy. In her work\, Mendel sheds light on the massive economic problems facing Ukraine and the entrenched corrupt oligarchs in league with Russia. She witnessed the Kremlin’s repeated attacks to discredit Zelenskyy through disinformation and an army of bots and trolls.\n\nIn 2022\, Mendel released a book titled *The Fight of Our Lives*. Written with the sound of Russian bombs and exploding shells in the background\, Mendel details life lived under Russian siege in 2022. She says goodbye to her fiancé who joins the front lines\, like so many other Ukrainian men. Throughout this story of Zelenskyy\, Ukraine\, and its extraordinary people\, Mendel reminds us of the paramount importance of truth and human values\, especially in these darkest of times.\n \nIf there is anything we can do to make this event accessible to you\, please contact us.

On “Two Universes\,” their first studio album in over five years\, Feufollet proves their Cajun roots don’t define them as much as propel them forward\; whispers of the swamp and its time-honored waltzes trigger a modern and broad musical imagination\, one that finds equal expression in blues\, old-time\, country ballads\, rock’n’roll\, whatever\, all for the sake of the song. Feufollet now includes keyboardist Andrew Toups\, whose influence on shaping the record\, combined with Feufollet’s usual fare—twin fiddles\, French accordion\, guitar twang\, and barn-dance rhythms— give the record more than a passing resemblance to the Band’s “Music from Big Pink.”\n\nPlease visit https://mutotix.umich.edu/4338/4339 for more detail.

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

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

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

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

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

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

DESCRIPTION:Care in Uncertain Times\n \nAs crises of public health\, economic instability\, authoritarian regimes\, racial injustice\, and climate change spread around the globe\, millions are experiencing distress\, conflict\, uncertainty\, and vulnerability. This troubling combination of experiences is nothing new for Cambodians. Between 1975-1979\, when the Khmer Rouge ruled Cambodia\, about a quarter of the country’s populations died of infectious diseases\, weapon wounds\, and malnutrition.\n \nThis exhibition brings together more than 80 works of art spanning a millennium to present how the visual culture of Cambodia and its diaspora has evolved in the face of cultural upheaval. Showcasing works from worldwide collections\, including those from some of the foremost members of the Cambodian contemporary art scene\, Angkor Complex allows viewers to encounter the still-fresh scars of a genocide and critically appreciate the strategies evolved to nurture resilience in trying times.\n\nLead support for this exhibition is provided by the U-M Office of the Provost\, U-M Office of the President\, National Endowment for the Arts\, Michigan Arts and Culture Council\, Eleanor Noyes Crumpacker Endowment Fund\, and U-M Ross School of Business.\n  UID:114750-21833430@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/114750 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Art,Culture,Exhibition,Museum,Public Health,UMMA LOCATION:Museum of Art - A.

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

Choices about which artists you see in our galleries\, choices about what relevant facts we share about the works\, and choices about what - out of an infinite number of options - we don’t say about them.\n \nPieces in this exhibition were made at a time when the world came to be shaped by the ideologies of colonial expansion and Western domination. And yet\, that history and the stories of those marginalized do not readily appear in the still lives and portraits on display here. By grappling with what is visible and what remains hidden\, we are forced to examine whose stories and histories are prioritized and why.  \n \nIn this online exhibition\, you can explore our efforts to deeply question the Museum’s collection and our own past complicity in favoring colonial voices. In the Museum gallery\, which will open in early 2021\, you’ll be able to experience the changes we’re making to the physical space to highlight a more honest version of European and American history. \n \nBy challenging our own practice\, and continuing to add to what we know and what we write about the works we display\, UMMA tells a more complex and more complete story of this nation - one that unsettles\, and fails to settle for\, simple narratives. \n \n“Invisible things are not necessarily ‘not there’.... Certain absences are so stressed\, so ornate\, so planned\, they call attention to themselves\; arrest us with intentionality and purpose\, like neighborhoods that are defined by the population held away from them.” \n \n— Toni Morrison\n\nLead support for Unsettling Histories: Legacies of Slavery and Colonialism is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost\, the U-M Arts Initiative\, and the Susan and Richard Gutow Endowed Fund.\n  UID:84303-21621213@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/84303 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Art,European,Exhibition,History,Museum,UMMA LOCATION:Museum of Art - European and American Decorative Art CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20240220T112041 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20240220T120000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20240220T130000 SUMMARY:Conference / Symposium:2024 Bagels and Brainstorming | International Students DESCRIPTION:UMSI invites graduate and undergraduate UMSI international students to join us for bagels and a casual conversation.

Zoom registration at https://myumi.ch/qGNd3\n\nThis study examines the confluence of dietary and medicinal practices in early modern China\, focusing on four specific items: ginseng\, bird's nest\, sea cucumber\, and shark fin. These substances\, esteemed for their nutritional and therapeutic properties\, provide a distinctive lens through which to view the cultural\, social\, and economic dimensions of Chinese dietary customs and traditional medicine during this era.\n \n In early modern China\, the demarcation between food and medicine was frequently ambiguous. This ambiguity was particularly pronounced in consuming certain items valued not only for their gastronomic appeal but also for their purported health advantages. Ginseng\, bird's nest\, sea cucumber\, and shark fin are prime examples of this phenomenon and indicate luxury consumption.\n \n Ginseng\, often hailed as a cure-all\, was consumed for various purported benefits\, including energy enhancement\, cognitive function improvement\, and longevity. Its luxury item status also made it a symbol of affluence and social standing. Similarly\, bird's nest\, derived primarily from the saliva of swiftlets\, was another item of luxury\, consumed for its alleged benefits in respiratory health and skin complexion. The sea cucumber\, a marine organism\, was sought after for its potential benefits in joint health and anti-inflammatory properties. Shark fin\, predominantly used in shark fin soup\, symbolized prestige and luxury. Despite its limited flavor profile\, it was valued for its texture and assumed health benefits\, such as enhancing sexual potency and preventing heart disease.\n \n The consumption of these four items in early modern China exemplifies the intricate interaction between dietary and medicinal practices. These substances were integral to the diet and bore significant cultural\, social\, and economic implications. Their use reflects broader themes of health\, wealth\, and status within Chinese society and an evolving comprehension of the relationship between diet and health.\n \n This research aims to investigate the perceived medicinal benefits of these foods\, their impact on tax regulations and to draw preliminary conclusions about their role in the cultural and social dynamics of the period. This exploration will contribute to a deeper understanding of the complex interplay between nourishment and medicine in the historical context of early modern China.\n \n Minghui Hu studied structural engineering with computer-assisted analysis and design in Taiwan and earned his BS in 1989.

Part of the Sally Fleming Master Class Series and hosted by the Stearns Collection of Musical Instruments.\n\nJérôme Hantaï (viola da gamba) and Lillian Gordis (harpsichord) have been performing as a duo since 2018\, inspired as much by the contrast between the vocality of the viol and the cutting crispness of the harpsichord as by the mix of rich and varied timbres of their instruments. Together\, they seek a common sound that lies between the singing inertia of the bow and the percussive attack of the keyboard. This ensemble is a chance for these artists to play with new energy and to explore the fresh synergy nourished by their respective identities as soloists.\n\n\nGUEST ARTIST BIOS\n\nBorn in 1992 into a family of scholars and mathematicians in Berkeley\, California\, LILLIAN GORDIS fell in love with the harpsichord at age 9 and never looked back. Five years later\, Pierre Hantaï discovered her during a tour to the United States\, and\, captivated by her touch\, he encouraged her to move to France for further studies. Lillian moved to Paris at 16\, where she was mentored by Hantaï and Bertrand Cuiller.\n\nHailed as a “Martha Argerich of the harpsichord” (ResMusica)\, Lillian regularly performs as a soloist in festivals across Europe and the United States and plays frequently in a duo with Jérôme Hantaï. \n\nHer most recent album\, a double-disc dedicated to Bach (Paraty Productions\, 2022) was awarded a Diapason d’Or and has received praise in the press worldwide (Gramophone\, Scherzo\, American Record Guide\, Fono Forum\, Qobuz…). It was a “coup de cœur nouveauté” on France Musique (Relax !\, Lionel Esparza) and was also featured on the program *Le Bach du Dimanche* (Corinne Schneider). Her first solo recording\, *Zones* (Paraty Productions\, 2019) was entirely dedicated to the sonatas of Domenico Scarlatti.\n\n2023 marked Lillian’s New York début at the Maison française NYU during a 6-city US tour with J. Hantaï\, and her début with the Los Angeles Chamber Orchestra at the Soraya Center\, as well numerous performances across Europe.\n\nLillian holds dual nationality with the United States and France and resides in Paris. In the 2023-24 academic year\, she will serve as Visiting Assistant Professor of Harpsichord at Oberlin Conservatory.\n\n\nBorn in 1961\, JÉRÔME HANTAÏ studied the viola da gamba with Wieland Kuijken at the Brussels Conservatory. Alongside this\, he took a keen interest in early keyboard instruments\, especially period pianos.\n\nDuring his studies\, he gave numerous concerts on both viol and piano\, and collaborated with pioneers in the renewal of early music\, including Sigiswald Kuijken\, René Jacobs and Jean- Claude Malgoire. He was also associated from the start with the adventure of the Orchestre Baroque d’Île de France and the Ensemble Orlando Gibbons in the 1980s.\n\nAbove all\, however\, he is a member of the Trio Hantaï\, with his brothers Marc (transverse flute) and Pierre (harpsichord)\, an ensemble that has acquired international renown. In addition\, since 2001\, Jérôme Hantaï has directed his own ensemble\, Spes Nostra\, and played in the Trio Almaviva.\n\nA sought-after soloist\, he has appeared throughout Europe and in the United States\, and travels to Asia for tours\, notably in China\, India\, Japan\, the Philippines\, Taiwan and Cambodia. Finally\, he also devotes a large part of his activity to teaching\, at the Conservatoire à Rayonnement Régional de Cergy-Pontoise and in masterclasses.\n\nHis many recordings include an anthology of folksong settings by Beethoven and a programme of keyboard trios by Haydn (Naïve)\, three volumes of *Pièces à une and plusieurs violes* by Marin Marais (Virgin Veritas)\, a programme of pieces by John Jenkins entitled *Fantazia* (Naïve/ Ambronay)\, and *Consort Music au temps de Shakespeare* (Musicales Actes Sud). All of these CDs have received critical acclaim.

A prime example is given by autophoretic particles\, such as Janus particles\, which self-propel due to asymmetric chemical interactions on their surface. The chemical gradients generated by the particle induce an osmotic pressure\, which is balanced by viscous stresses driving an effective slip flow confined to a thin layer at the surface of the particle. The particle thus sets the surrounding fluid in motion\, which then reacts back on the particle\, creating surface stresses and eventually self-propulsion. Here\, we develop an analytical and numerics-friendly formalism to study autophoresis based on general principles such as linearity of the governing equations. Choosing a kinetic approach\, thermal fluctuations of the suspending fluid are included systematically. After discussing the central ideas of our method\, we study the concrete example of a bottom-heavy Brownian Janus particle in confinement. Finally\, we give an outlook on potential future applications.

Some of most spectacular light-induced phenomena\, such as superconducting-like phases\, transient charge density wave ordering\, and excitonic condensation\, are found to occur in materials dominated by strong electronic correlations with a large susceptibility to external stimuli. A major need towards developing a microscopic understanding of these states of matter is the capability to directly measure their transient electronic dynamics and effective interactions.\n\nIn this talk\, I will show how novel ultrafast x-ray spectroscopic methods\, such as time-resolved x-ray absorption (trXAS) and time-resolved resonant inelastic x-ray scattering (trRIXS)\, enable tackling these questions with unprecedented detail [1]. I will particularly focus on light-driven Mott insulators\, which are key to the emergence of light-induced superconductivity and are theoretically argued to host other exotic ordering phenomena upon photoexcitation\, such as - pairing condensation. I will discuss how trXAS allows to accurately determine transient effective electronic interactions in 1D and 2D copper oxides\, and how we can fully reconstruct the driven many-body state from the transient absorption spectrum [2\,3]. Further\, I will discuss how advances in trRIXS [1\,4\,5] enable mapping the excitation spectrum of the driven state\, and the implications of these experiments for the realization of new light-induced states in photoexcited Mott insulators. \n\n[1] M Mitrano &\; Y.

During the 2010s\, Ethiopia experienced rapid economic development before steadily devolving into regional warfare by the end of the decade. Drawing from research conducted during this period of political and economic transition\, my talk traces the effects of massive foreign investment on the country’s domestic brewing industry: the production\, distribution\, sale\, and consumption of commercial beer. Specifically\, I analyze the social\, cultural\, and political contradictions underlying corporate transformation of the local beer supply chain\, as situated within the politics of developmental capitalism in Ethiopia. Thus\, taking my case of the beer and brewing industry\, I argue that the state’s pursuit of economic progress through national planning and foreign investment serves as both the cause and consequence of national unrest\, challenging scholarly assumptions of what it means to “grow” an economy.\n\nBIO: Christina T. Collins is a cultural anthropologist whose ethnographic research examines the social\, cultural\, and economic impact of multinational alcohol companies in Ethiopia. Up until the early 2010s\, the alcohol industry in Ethiopia was primarily state-owned\, but recent privatizations have opened up the local market to international competition. With a focus on beer and brewing\, her fieldwork explores the socio-cultural effects of private investments within labor and service economies (e.g.\, brewing\, malt barley production\, draft cleaning services\, alcohol distribution\, food and beverage services\, advertising/marketing\, and entertainment/nightlife). Her research shows that market activities (i.e.\, the production\, distribution\, sale\, and consumption of commercial lagers in Ethiopia) are not merely economic in nature but saturated with symbolic\, affective\, religious\, ethnic\, and political meanings. Dr. Collins holds a PhD in cultural anthropology from Duke University. Her research interests include anthropology and business\; industry and industrialization in emerging markets\; national economy\; alcohol production\, distribution\, and consumption\; science and technology studies (STS)\; and the anthropology of development\, with a regional focus in sub-Saharan Africa\, especially Ethiopia.

The Nazis were astounded to encounter Grey Molay amidst the \"red Spaniards\" who were exiled from Spain. An Afro-Catalan man of Guinean parentage\, Grey Molay's presence in the camp\, along with representations of him in cultural productions\, evince a unique embodiment of contemporary European histories of colonialism\, fascism and anti-fascist resistance\, and racism. This talk theorizes representations of these intertwined memories with a singular focus on Grey Molay. Indeed\, in Multidirectional Memory\, Michael Rothberg writes that “there is no shortage of cross-referencing between the legacies of the Holocaust and colonialism\, but many of those moments of contact occur in marginalized texts or in marginal moments of well-known texts.” Through readings of references to Grey Molay in contemporary Spanish literature and culture\, this paper observes the ways in which Grey-Molay’s story appears in the “marginal moments” of more well-known life narratives by fellow Mauthausen survivors. By centering Grey-Molay’s experience — even as it is filtered through the lens of his white compatriots — this analysis answers Rothberg’s call to constitute the archive “with the help of the change in vision made possible by a new kind of comparative thinking.”\n\nProfessor Michelle Murray's research and teaching focus on contemporary Spanish literature and film. Her first book Home Away from Home Immigrant Narratives\, Domesticity\, and Coloniality in Contemporary Spanish Culture (UNC Press for North Carolina Studies in Romance Languages and Literatures\, 2018) studies representations of immigrant women as domestic workers in contemporary Spain. She is currently working on a manuscript entitled Migrant Markets\; this book explores migration\, political economy\, and trafficking in the Southern Mediterranean.\n\nThis talk is co-sponsored by: the Department of Romance Languages and Literature\, the Department of African and African American Studies\, the Department of Comparative Literature\, the Institute for Research on Women and Gender\, and the Program in International Comparative Studies.

It is well–known that P₂(Rᵈ)\, W₂)\, is isometric to a quotient space of the Hilbert space H of square-integrable random variables on (0\, 1)ᵈ. We elucidate the connection between various notions of differentiability in the Wasserstein space: some have been introduced intrinsically (in the Wasserstein space\, by using typical objects from the theory of Optimal Transport). Another notion is extrinsic and arises from the identification of the Wasserstein space with the Hilbert space of square-integrable random variables on a non-atomic probability space.

Together\, they seek a common sound that lies between the singing inertia of the bow and the percussive attack of the keyboard. This ensemble is a chance for these artists to play with new energy and to explore the fresh synergy nourished by their respective identities as soloists. They have toured in France\, Switzerland\, Italy and the United States.\n\nPROGRAM: Music of J.S. Bach\, F. Couperin\, and M. Marais.\n\n“Both musicians sought to outdo one another in force and vivacity…”\n- From \"Duo Gordis-Hantaï combine in stellar baroque recital for Capriccio series\,” Washington Classical Review\n\nThis performance is presented by the Stearns Collection of Musical Instruments with support from the Sally Fleming Master Class Fund.\n\nGUEST ARTIST BIOS\n\nBorn in 1992 into a family of scholars and mathematicians in Berkeley\, California\, LILLIAN GORDIS fell in love with the harpsichord at age 9 and never looked back. Five years later\, Pierre Hantaï discovered her during a tour to the United States\, and\, captivated by her touch\, he encouraged her to move to France for further studies. Lillian moved to Paris at 16\, where she was mentored by Hantaï and Bertrand Cuiller.\n\nHailed as a “Martha Argerich of the harpsichord” (ResMusica)\, Lillian regularly performs as a soloist in festivals across Europe and the United States and plays frequently in a duo with Jérôme Hantaï. \n\nHer most recent album\, a double-disc dedicated to Bach (Paraty Productions\, 2022) was awarded a Diapason d’Or and has received praise in the press worldwide (Gramophone\, Scherzo\, American Record Guide\, Fono Forum\, Qobuz…). It was a “coup de cœur nouveauté” on France Musique (Relax !\, Lionel Esparza) and was also featured on the program *Le Bach du Dimanche* (Corinne Schneider). Her first solo recording\, *Zones* (Paraty Productions\, 2019) was entirely dedicated to the sonatas of Domenico Scarlatti.\n\n2023 marked Lillian’s New York début at the Maison française NYU during a 6-city US tour with J. Hantaï\, and her début with the Los Angeles Chamber Orchestra at the Soraya Center\, as well numerous performances across Europe.\n\nLillian holds dual nationality with the United States and France and resides in Paris. In the 2023-24 academic year\, she will serve as Visiting Assistant Professor of Harpsichord at Oberlin Conservatory.\n\n\nBorn in 1961\, JÉRÔME HANTAÏ studied the viola da gamba with Wieland Kuijken at the Brussels Conservatory. Alongside this\, he took a keen interest in early keyboard instruments\, especially period pianos.\n\nDuring his studies\, he gave numerous concerts on both viol and piano\, and collaborated with pioneers in the renewal of early music\, including Sigiswald Kuijken\, René Jacobs and Jean- Claude Malgoire. He was also associated from the start with the adventure of the Orchestre Baroque d’Île de France and the Ensemble Orlando Gibbons in the 1980s.\n\nAbove all\, however\, he is a member of the Trio Hantaï\, with his brothers Marc (transverse flute) and Pierre (harpsichord)\, an ensemble that has acquired international renown. In addition\, since 2001\, Jérôme Hantaï has directed his own ensemble\, Spes Nostra\, and played in the Trio Almaviva.\n\nA sought-after soloist\, he has appeared throughout Europe and in the United States\, and travels to Asia for tours\, notably in China\, India\, Japan\, the Philippines\, Taiwan and Cambodia. Finally\, he also devotes a large part of his activity to teaching\, at the Conservatoire à Rayonnement Régional de Cergy-Pontoise and in masterclasses.\n\nHis many recordings include an anthology of folksong settings by Beethoven and a programme of keyboard trios by Haydn (Naïve)\, three volumes of *Pièces à une and plusieurs violes* by Marin Marais (Virgin Veritas)\, a programme of pieces by John Jenkins entitled *Fantazia* (Naïve/ Ambronay)\, and *Consort Music au temps de Shakespeare* (Musicales Actes Sud). All of these CDs have received critical acclaim.

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

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

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

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

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

The Higgs boson discovery in 2012 completed the Standard Model of particle physics\, but we know that this picture is insufficient\, and many important questions remain unanswered… How can quantum mechanics and gravity be reconciled? What are dark matter and dark energy? Why is there more matter than anti-matter? Why are there three generations of matter particles\, and why do they have the hierarchy of masses that they do? The newly discovered Higgs boson is the only fundamental spin-0 particle in the Standard Model\, associated with an all-permeating\, ever-present field thought to generate the mass of all other particles\, and it might be the key to answering many of these crucial questions\, and may lead to discoveries we have not anticipated. In particular\, both the strength with which the Higgs boson interacts with itself and the Higgs boson lifetime contain important information about our universe. Moreover\, one or more of these measurements could be the key to understanding many of the mysteries of the early universe\, including why there is more matter than anti-matter\, what caused inflation\, and whether the vacuum of our universe is stable. This presentation will discuss these measurements in the context of the ATLAS detector at the CERN Large Hadron Collider. These analyses are very challenging\, however\, and the use of novel artificial intelligence techniques may be needed if these discoveries are to be made.

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

DESCRIPTION:Care in Uncertain Times\n \nAs crises of public health\, economic instability\, authoritarian regimes\, racial injustice\, and climate change spread around the globe\, millions are experiencing distress\, conflict\, uncertainty\, and vulnerability. This troubling combination of experiences is nothing new for Cambodians. Between 1975-1979\, when the Khmer Rouge ruled Cambodia\, about a quarter of the country’s populations died of infectious diseases\, weapon wounds\, and malnutrition.\n \nThis exhibition brings together more than 80 works of art spanning a millennium to present how the visual culture of Cambodia and its diaspora has evolved in the face of cultural upheaval. Showcasing works from worldwide collections\, including those from some of the foremost members of the Cambodian contemporary art scene\, Angkor Complex allows viewers to encounter the still-fresh scars of a genocide and critically appreciate the strategies evolved to nurture resilience in trying times.\n\nLead support for this exhibition is provided by the U-M Office of the Provost\, U-M Office of the President\, National Endowment for the Arts\, Michigan Arts and Culture Council\, Eleanor Noyes Crumpacker Endowment Fund\, and U-M Ross School of Business.\n  UID:114750-21833431@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/114750 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Art,Culture,Exhibition,Museum,Public Health,UMMA LOCATION:Museum of Art - A.

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

A more recent perspective on this problem has instead focused on stability\; more precisely\, how does the cohomology of a fixed line bundle vary as the dimension of the ambient flag becomes arbitrarily large? In recent joint work with Raicu\, we answer this: the cohomology is eventually modeled by a fixed polynomial functor\, depending only on the weight of the line bundle. Moreover\, for certain classes of weights\, we can show that these stability functors exhibit remarkable periodicity properties determined by the characteristic of the underlying field. In this talk\, we will see some of the background and tools that go into these results\, including an unexpected connection to a long-open problem of Akin--Buchsbaum on \"universal\" categorifications of the Jacobi-Trudi identity.

Choices about which artists you see in our galleries\, choices about what relevant facts we share about the works\, and choices about what - out of an infinite number of options - we don’t say about them.\n \nPieces in this exhibition were made at a time when the world came to be shaped by the ideologies of colonial expansion and Western domination. And yet\, that history and the stories of those marginalized do not readily appear in the still lives and portraits on display here. By grappling with what is visible and what remains hidden\, we are forced to examine whose stories and histories are prioritized and why.  \n \nIn this online exhibition\, you can explore our efforts to deeply question the Museum’s collection and our own past complicity in favoring colonial voices. In the Museum gallery\, which will open in early 2021\, you’ll be able to experience the changes we’re making to the physical space to highlight a more honest version of European and American history. \n \nBy challenging our own practice\, and continuing to add to what we know and what we write about the works we display\, UMMA tells a more complex and more complete story of this nation - one that unsettles\, and fails to settle for\, simple narratives. \n \n“Invisible things are not necessarily ‘not there’.... Certain absences are so stressed\, so ornate\, so planned\, they call attention to themselves\; arrest us with intentionality and purpose\, like neighborhoods that are defined by the population held away from them.” \n \n— Toni Morrison\n\nLead support for Unsettling Histories: Legacies of Slavery and Colonialism is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost\, the U-M Arts Initiative\, and the Susan and Richard Gutow Endowed Fund.\n  UID:84303-21621214@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/84303 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Art,European,Exhibition,History,Museum,UMMA LOCATION:Museum of Art - European and American Decorative Art CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20240215T145807 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20240221T113000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20240221T130000 SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Engineered Perspectives: A Black History Month Workshop on Diversity and Understanding DESCRIPTION:Join us for lunch and and an interactive workshop to commemorate Black History Month.

W.E.B. Du Bois presents one counterpoint to the canon and a lightning rod for “decolonization” sweeping through sociology. The talk considers four responses to decolonizing the canon: restoration\, rejection\, revolution or reconstruction. The talk undertakes “reconstruction” by putting Du Bois into dialogue with Marx\, Weber and Durkheim with radical consequences for social science but also challenges for Du Bois.

The key challenges faced by the Ukrainian public health system during the war include\, but are not limited to\, compromised capacity for the public health system to prevent\, detect\, and respond to emergencies\, such as infectious disease outbreaks\, gaps in biosafety and biosecurity\, and low immunization coverage. Restricted access to healthcare services also leads to higher rates of noncommunicable diseases (NCDs) contributing to premature mortality and urgent mental health issues. Fortunately\, a range of stakeholders\, including Ukrainian state- and non-state actors\, as well as foreign and global agencies\, are working to address the most pressing needs and risks\, mitigate consequences of war-induced public health emergencies\, and prevent future crises. Even in the face of war\, important reforms in the Ukrainian public health system are taking place to align with EU standards\, which highlight priorities for post-war recovery and will support the country’s euro-integration path.\n \n Olha Kostetska is a public health and healthcare specialist focused on health system strengthening and resilience as well as health policy. She holds master’s degrees in Healthcare Management and in International Law. Olha is currently employed by the Swiss Tropical and Public Health Institute (Swiss TPH)\, where she leads the public health components of the USAID project “Public Health Systems Recovery & Resilience Activity” in Ukraine. Before joining Swiss TPH\, Olha served as an advisor to a member of Ukraine’s Parliament on legal matters in the healthcare field to streamline important reforms of the blood donation system and the public health system\, and to address urgent COVID-19-related needs. Olha also has extensive experience in legal consulting in the life sciences and healthcare sectors\, where she has advised public and private actors on various regulatory issues\, as well as supported the implementation of key legal developments in the field.\n \nIf there is anything we can do to make this event accessible to you\, please contact us at crees@umich.edu.

However\, it is rather common that the two processes are considered in a separate fashion\, with the analyst being handed a linked file that is possibly subject to substantial linkage error (false matches and missed matches). Ignoring such error can render statistical analysis invalid. At the same time\, accounting for linkage error with limited information about the linkage process poses a variety of challenges. This talk will outline a framework based on a mixture model for addressing mismatch error in the secondary analysis of linked files. Its use will be demonstrated in several case studies. Finally\, we will present recent extensions\, future directions and open problems.\n\nMartin Slawski is an Associate Professor in the Department of Statistics at George\nMason University.

The key tool is modular flow\, a nonstandard time-evolution map defined relative to a choice of state\, which makes that state \"look thermal.\" Famously\, the modular flow for the Minkowski vacuum in the Rindler wedge is a geometric boost\, which is one way of stating the Unruh effect. In this talk\, I will outline a characterization of the settings in which modular flow is geometrically local\, i.e.\, a complete list of \"generalized Unruh effects\" in arbitrary spacetimes and for arbitrary quantum field theories. The arguments involve analytic manipulations of position-space correlators\, which may be of independent interest to those of you working on amplitudes.

B. Yeats’s Purgatory DESCRIPTION:Please join us for a discussion of U-M English PhD candidate Asa Chen Zhang's dissertation chapter\, \"'Not Once but Many Times': Noh and Tragedy in W. B. Yeats’s Purgatory.\" You can sign up to receive the chapter and RSVP for the workshop here: https://forms.gle/As9gacqBmpwYk8fx6.\n\n\nAbstract:\nTurning from the celebrated beginning of Yeats’s engagement with Japanese theatre\nin 1916 to the overlooked final phase of this transnational relationship\, this chapter takes\nup the shackled presence of Noh’s crazed female specter archetype (“kyōjo mono”) in\nYeats’s penultimate verse play\, Purgatory (1938). Serving as both a supernatural catalyst\nfor Yeats’s valorization of the tragic sublime and a convenient site of suppression as an\nembodiment of the Victorian melodramatic heroine\, this Noh specter displays an\nuntamable multiplicity within Yeats’s attempt to harness her generic\, transnational\, and\nmystical resonances in the Purgatory manuscripts and the significantly revised 1937\nversion of A Vision. Rather than “die into the labyrinth of itself\,” this figure\, enmeshed in the poet’s ambivalent later affinity with Nietzsche\, becomes a subversive manifestation of\nYeats’s own unease with the eugenic and totalitarian underpinnings of his final discourse\non tragedy as revealed in the play’s posthumous companion pamphlet\, On the Boiler\n(1939). In lieu of the direct replication of Noh’s formal elements in Yeats’s earlier Celtic\nheroic plays\, the case of Purgatory instances a minor type of “modernist orientalism”—and a less theorized phenomenon of transnationalism at large—where an imported element\, no longer visibly foreign\, becomes remarkably constitutive of the ideological anxiety of the hosting text.

In generic isolated systems\, one expects nonequilibrium dynamics to result in thermalization: a relaxation to states in which the values of macroscopic quantities are stationary\, universal with respect to widely differing initial conditions\, and predictable through the time-tested recipe of statistical mechanics. However\, it is not obvious what feature of a many-body system makes quantum thermalization possible\, in a sense analogous to that in which dynamical chaos makes classical thermalization possible. Underscoring that new rules could apply in the quantum case\, experimental studies in one-dimensional systems have shown that traditional statistical mechanics can provide incorrect predictions for the outcomes of relaxation dynamics. We show that isolated \"quantum-chaotic\" systems do in fact relax to states in which observables are well-described by statistical mechanics. Moreover\, we argue that the time evolution itself only plays an auxiliary role as thermalization occurs at the level of individual eigenstates.

In this talk\, I will describe some basic algebro-geometric techniques underlying this theory and explain the need for a theory of character sheaves on jet schemes of reductive groups from the perspective of the Langlands program. Recently\, R. Bezrukavnikov and I have developed the \"generic\" part of this desired theory. In the simplest nontrivial case\, this resolves a conjecture of Lusztig and produces perverse sheaves on jet schemes compatible with parahoric Deligne--Lusztig induction.

This also holds for almost Fuchsian representations\, but not in general for quasi-Fuchsian representations.\n\nI will present an analog of this picture for representations of surface groups into Sp(2n\,R). Among these representations\, there exists a union of connected components containing only discrete and faithful representations\, called maximal representations. We will consider fibrations by projective codimension $2$ subspaces of a projective convex set containing the symmetric space of Sp(2n\,R). These subspaces are described by pencils of quadrics\, and we will see that one can characterize maximal representations by the existence of such a continuous fibration\, satisfying some additional properties.
