Much has been said regarding these refugees\, but all too often the voices of refugees themselves are left out of the conversation.\n\nThis exhibit uses the data collected from a Photovoice project\, combining photography and transcriptions from groups discussions with adolescent refugees to better understand the lived experiences of adolescent refugees. The gallery highlights five main themes that were discussed: Stability and Security\, Interpersonal Difficulties\, Rooting Factors\, Personal Growth\, and Contribution.\n\n“I wish I could help out people… Imma give them everything.

In the early 1970s\, that question was hotly debated as artists\, critics\, and the public grappled with the relationship between art\, politics\, race\, and feminism. Many of those debates centered on bringing to light the roles that gender and race played in how “great modern art” was defined and assessed\, and on employing art to advance civil rights. Within this discourse\, abstraction had an especially fraught role. To many\, the decision by women artists and artists of color to make abstract art seemed to represent a retreat from politics and protest: an abnegation of a commitment to civil rights and feminism. \"Abstraction\, Color\, and Politics in the Early 1970s\" presents large-scale work by four leading American artists—Helen Frankenthaler\, Sam Gilliam\, Al Loving\, and Louise Nevelson—who chose abstraction as a means of expression within the intense political climate of the early 1970s.\n\nLead support for \"Abstraction\, Color\, and Politics in the Early 1970s\" is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost\, Michigan Medicine\, the Richard and Rosann Noel Endowment Fund\, the Herbert W. and Susan L.

During these decades\, the notion that abstraction was a purely formal and American art form\, concerned only with timeless themes disconnected from the present\, was met with increased skepticism. Women artists and artists of color began to actively and assertively explore abstraction’s possibilities. The artworks in Abstraction\, Color\, and Politics: The 1960s and 1970s demonstrate both radical and disarming changes in how artists worked and what they thought their art was about. Their new formal and intellectual strategies—seen here across large-scale and miniature work—dramatically transformed the practice of abstraction in the 1960s and 1970s in a politically shifting American landscape.\n\nUMMA gratefully acknowledges the following donors for their generous support:\n\nLead Exhibition Sponsors: University of Michigan Office of the Provost\, Michigan Medicine\, and College of Literature\, Science\, and the Arts\n\nExhibition Endowment Donors:  Richard and Rosann Noel Endowment Fund\, Herbert W. and Susan L. Johe Endowment\, and Robert and Janet Miller Fund\n\nUniversity of Michigan Funding Partners: Institute for Research on Women and Gender\, School of Social Work\, Department of Political Science\, and Department of Women's Studies UID:63803-15884073@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/63803 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Art,Exhibition,Museum,Politics,UMMA LOCATION:Museum of Art - A.

Stamps School of Art & Design will host the New Media Caucus 2019 Symposium and Exhibition\, Border Control.  Symposium and exhibition events will take place in Ann Arbor at the Stamps School of Art and Design (2000 Bonisteel Blvd.) and Stamps Gallery (201 S. Division St.).\n\nExhibition Dates: September 20 - November 10\, 2019\nSymposium Dates: September 19 - 22\, 2019\nGuest Curator: Allison Collins\, Media Arts Curator\, Western Front\n\nCurated by Allison Collins in collaboration with Carrie Edinger and Srimoyee Mitra.\nIn partnership with the New Media Caucus \n\nHuman migration is a defining issue of the 21st century\, often calling into question the relevance\, role\, and responsibilities of national borders across the globe. As individuals seek refuge from geopolitical and environmental forces\, we become an increasingly globalized community. Demarcations of all types are simultaneously porous and closed\, defensive and receptive\, and seen in almost every facet of our existence. Border Control responds to these conditions with an open-ended question\, asking: “How has humanity made sense of the world in relation to borders and boundaries\, both physically and psychologically?” While positioned within (or outside of) defined spaces and identities\, human refusal of such literal definitions is paramount. Even while lines drawn have important consequences for lived reality\, the winds\, currents\, and natural energies of the Earth deny enclosures and definitions that politics and maps might suggest.\n\nDrawn from practices that are touched or driven by new media\, Border Control assembles works by artists who consider geographical contexts\, patterns of migration\, displacement\, and statelessness. Collectively\, they offer projects with subterfuge\, refusal\, and reconsideration of imposed state-sanctioned boundaries.\n\n \n\n  UID:63627-15820745@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/63627 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Art,Exhibition,Media LOCATION:Off Campus Location CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20190806T121549 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20190928T110000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20190928T170000 SUMMARY:Exhibition:Copies and Invention in East Asia DESCRIPTION:Far from being frowned upon as uncreative\, in China\, Korea\, and Japan\, copying has long been considered a valuable practice. Through works of art spanning ancient to contemporary times\, Copies and Invention in East Asia challenges our understanding of originality\, and presents copying as an act of imaginative interpretation. The exhibition includes burial goods that conjure a world for the deceased\; Buddhist sculptures produced in multiples to amplify religious experience and meaning\; paintings in which a master’s brushstrokes are faithfully duplicated as a way of shaping the self\; and contemporary works that address multiplicity and duplication in the modern world.\n\nLead support is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost\, Michigan Medicine\, Lieberthal-Rogel Center for Chinese Studies\, Center for Japanese Studies\, Nam Center for Korean Studies\, School of Information\, and College of Engineering. Additional generous support is provided by the University of Michigan Fabrication Studio at the Duderstadt Center\, the Department of Asian Languages and Cultures\, and SeeMeCNC 3D Printers.

Drawing inspiration from his country’s basketry traditions\, the South African artist Walter Oltmann (b. 1960) alternates densely layered sections with open spaces\, allowing the underlying surface of the work to show through. The skull that emerges is\, in a South African context\, evocative of the Cradle of Humankind—a series of caves outside Johannesburg\, where some of the oldest hominin fossils in the world have been found.\n \nThe work complements UMMA’s renowned and growing collection of historical and contemporary African art and reminds us of the central role of Africa in the history of humankind. The purchase was made possible thanks to the generosity of UMMA Director's Acquisition Committee.\n\nThis acquisition was made possible by the generosity of the UMMA Director's Acquisition Committee\, 2016.

Demonstrations are appropriate for visitors ages 5 and above. \n\nThe human body is made of more than 37 trillion cells. Most of them need to be replaced every couple of months\, weeks\, or sometimes in the course of only a few days. Our cells grow and divide constantly to get this massive job done. But how do cells replicate themselves? How do things move in\, out\, and around the cell\, and into new cells? Join us as we explore how our bodies carry out this massive process. We will learn about cell structure and division and observe cells up-close and in action! \nFunded by the National Science Foundation.

Religious devotion in ancient Kush (a region located in modern-day northern Sudan)\, involved pilgrimage and leaving informal marks on temples\, pyramids\, and other monumental structures. These graffiti are found in temples throughout the later (“Meroitic”) period of Kush\, when it bordered Roman Egypt. They represent one of the few direct traces of the devotional practices of private people in Kush and hint at individuals’ thoughts\, values\, and daily lives. This exhibition explores the times and places in which Kushite graffiti were inscribed through photos\, text\, and interactive media presentations. At the heart of the show are the hundreds of Meroitic graffiti recently discovered in a rock-cut temple by the Kelsey expedition to El-Kurru in northern Sudan.\n\nCurators: Geoff Emberling and Suzanne Davis\n\nView the online exhibition:\nhttp://exhibitions.kelsey.lsa.umich.edu/graffiti-el-kurru/ UID:63992-16059358@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/63992 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:AEM Featured,Africa,Archaeology,Exhibition,Museum LOCATION:Kelsey Museum of Archaeology CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20190805T094038 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20190928T130000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20190928T131500 SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Scientist in the Forum DESCRIPTION:Check at the Welcome Desk for other scheduled times. \nJoin a University of Michigan researcher in the Science Forum for a special peek into cutting-edge research.

The materials collected in this exhibit\, all held in the Special Collections Research Center\, showcase not only the variety\, beauty\, and originality of turn-of-the-century print-making\, but also new ideas about what a magazine can do: namely\, create distinctive communities around avant-garde ideas outside of mainstream channels. The communities imagined in these magazines are sometimes explicitly political or aesthetic\, but more often both combine in writers’ and artists’ resistance to mass-market\, industrial\, bourgeois\, and nationalist print cultures.\n\nThe magazines in this exhibit are mostly American and British\, but many are distinctively cosmopolitan\, crossing borders to engage with international movements like socialism\, decadence\, and modernism in their attempts to create an audience united by aesthetic and political ideals rather than nationality. Although the little magazines’ resistance to mainstream journalism shortened their lifespan and restricted their circulation\, their experimental approach has had a lasting impact on our sense of magazines as flexible aesthetic and social media.

First published in 1572 by Georg Braun (1541-1622) and Frans Hogenberg (1535-1590)\, Civitates was first intended as a companion to Ortelius’s Theatrum Orbis Terrarum. New editions of the city atlas continued to be printed through 1617. Hogenberg\, one of the most prolific engravers of the time\, was joined by many other engravers in creating the Civitates. Braun edited the work and provided the descriptions of the cities on the verso of each plate. This exhibit contains 18 works from the Civitates\, including many from the Clark Library’s holdings. Also included are reproductions of large panoramas Amsterdam\, London\, and St. Petersburg that reflect the evolution of city mapping through the 17th and 18th centuries.

The Dynamic Football laminated paper works explore compositions of action\, allowing the artist to exploit the properties of the medium. The pieces are constructed by gluing many layers of paper over wire armatures. When dry\, the sculptures are painted in an often splashy\, sketchy style. Wirtz’ silly animal works are what the artist is best known for\, and they take shape in his Goetzville\, Michigan studio.\n\nGifts of Art Gallery – University Hospital Main Corridor\, Floor 2\n1500 E.

Her large paintings are emotive abstract portraits of specific bodies of water. The Oil on Water exhibition features Eubank’s oil on linen paintings of the Arctic Ocean and the Mediterranean Sea. She creates patterns within patterns\, representing vertical stacks of rhythms. The undulating forms\, such as water ripples\, oil slicks\, and refuse\, combined with the memories that water evokes\, makes her work eye-opening\, yet soothing and sensual. \n\nGifts of Art Gallery – University Hospital Main Lobby\, Floor 1 \n1500 E.

Cavanagh works in a style that is hyper-detailed and intricate\, so she remains present during the creative process. A true Michigander\, Cavanagh was born and raised in Southeast Michigan\, attended U-M\, and currently works in Detroit. Cavanagh makes a concerted effort to exhibit as much as possible in her home state\, and when she is not in her studio\, you can find her cooking\, practicing yoga or playing with her cat\, Benji.\n\nGifts of Art Gallery – University Hospital Main Corridor\, Floor 2\n1500 E.

She immigrated to the U.S. in 1994\, and for the next 22 years\, New York became her home. In 2016\, she moved to Michigan to pursue an MFA at Cranbrook Academy of Art. She found the raw beauty of Detroit inspiring and kept her metalsmithing studio practice in the city. The copper and brass vessels in her Ваза series and other included works are a meditation on fluidity of memories: their ability to shift from reflection to re-invention over time. Each vessel potentially holds something within its boundaries\, whether tangible or not. \n\nGifts of Art Gallery – Taubman Health Center North Lobby\, Floor 1\n1500 E.

It also explores how creators have pushed back against the colonialist\, hyper-masculine\, and racist ethos of the text by using the castaway narrative to explore self-sufficiency\, otherness\, and the role of gendered and racialized ideas in constructing the self.\n\nThis novel of shipwreck\, survival\, and rescue has become a cultural touchstone. Today\, many people who haven’t read the novel still feel familiar with key plot elements\, Robinson Crusoe\, and Friday. Yet\, there is less familiarity with how both the original text and many of the adaptations of Robinson Crusoe have fed into and reinforced narratives of imperialism and racism. Drawing on the Hubbard Collection of Imaginary Voyages - one of the world’s most comprehensive collections of editions\, translations\, adaptations\, and spin-offs of Robinson Crusoe - Other Crusoes\, Other Islands seeks to understand how readers and writers have engaged with the story since its initial publication in 1719.\n\nContent Advisory: Please be aware that some items in this exhibit feature racist imagery and potentially painful content. Although Robinson Crusoe is often treated as children’s literature and this exhibit includes children’s books and board games\, it is not an exhibit geared towards children and reflects the significant shifts over time in ideas about what is appropriate for children.

Using woodcut\, painting on canvas\, and mixed media\, Linda Hyong\, Sung Eun Hong\, and Seong Ok Lee explore the world of flowers\, gardens\, and nature in vivid works that slow time to a fleeting present moment.\n\nLinda Hyong is a University of Michigan alumna and former teaching assistant in the U-M Stamps School of Art & Design. She draws her inspiration from Claude Monet’s water lily garden in France to create her own modern interpretation of impressionism. Seong Ok Lee is inspired by flowers\, which she believes are the most beautiful forms in nature. In her dream-like\, nearly abstract paintings\, Sung Eun Hong communicates her vision of what she calls “pure dreams and fantasy.”\n\nExhibit runs September 14 through November 15\, 2019 at the\n\nUniversity of Michigan Matthaei Botanical Gardens\, 1800 N.

Much has been said regarding these refugees\, but all too often the voices of refugees themselves are left out of the conversation.\n\nThis exhibit uses the data collected from a Photovoice project\, combining photography and transcriptions from groups discussions with adolescent refugees to better understand the lived experiences of adolescent refugees.

Stamps School of Art & Design will host the New Media Caucus 2019 Symposium and Exhibition\, Border Control.  Symposium and exhibition events will take place in Ann Arbor at the Stamps School of Art and Design (2000 Bonisteel Blvd.) and Stamps Gallery (201 S. Division St.).\n\nExhibition Dates: September 20 - November 10\, 2019\nSymposium Dates: September 19 - 22\, 2019\nGuest Curator: Allison Collins\, Media Arts Curator\, Western Front\n\nCurated by Allison Collins in collaboration with Carrie Edinger and Srimoyee Mitra.\nIn partnership with the New Media Caucus \n\nHuman migration is a defining issue of the 21st century\, often calling into question the relevance\, role\, and responsibilities of national borders across the globe. As individuals seek refuge from geopolitical and environmental forces\, we become an increasingly globalized community. Demarcations of all types are simultaneously porous and closed\, defensive and receptive\, and seen in almost every facet of our existence. Border Control responds to these conditions with an open-ended question\, asking: “How has humanity made sense of the world in relation to borders and boundaries\, both physically and psychologically?” While positioned within (or outside of) defined spaces and identities\, human refusal of such literal definitions is paramount. Even while lines drawn have important consequences for lived reality\, the winds\, currents\, and natural energies of the Earth deny enclosures and definitions that politics and maps might suggest.\n\nDrawn from practices that are touched or driven by new media\, Border Control assembles works by artists who consider geographical contexts\, patterns of migration\, displacement\, and statelessness. Collectively\, they offer projects with subterfuge\, refusal\, and reconsideration of imposed state-sanctioned boundaries.\n\n \n\n  UID:63627-15820746@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/63627 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Art,Exhibition,Media LOCATION:Off Campus Location CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20190805T093506 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20190929T110000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20190929T112000 SUMMARY:Presentation:Science Forum Demo: Counting Cells DESCRIPTION:Join us in the Science Forum for 15-20 minute engaging science demonstrations that will help you see the world around you in a whole new way. Demonstrations are appropriate for visitors ages 5 and above. \n\nThe human body is made of more than 37 trillion cells. Most of them need to be replaced every couple of months\, weeks\, or sometimes in the course of only a few days. Our cells grow and divide constantly to get this massive job done. But how do cells replicate themselves? How do things move in\, out\, and around the cell\, and into new cells? Join us as we explore how our bodies carry out this massive process. We will learn about cell structure and division and observe cells up-close and in action! \nFunded by the National Science Foundation.

Within this discourse\, abstraction had an especially fraught role. To many\, the decision by women artists and artists of color to make abstract art seemed to represent a retreat from politics and protest: an abnegation of a commitment to civil rights and feminism. \"Abstraction\, Color\, and Politics in the Early 1970s\" presents large-scale work by four leading American artists—Helen Frankenthaler\, Sam Gilliam\, Al Loving\, and Louise Nevelson—who chose abstraction as a means of expression within the intense political climate of the early 1970s.\n\nLead support for \"Abstraction\, Color\, and Politics in the Early 1970s\" is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost\, Michigan Medicine\, the Richard and Rosann Noel Endowment Fund\, the Herbert W. and Susan L.

During these decades\, the notion that abstraction was a purely formal and American art form\, concerned only with timeless themes disconnected from the present\, was met with increased skepticism. Women artists and artists of color began to actively and assertively explore abstraction’s possibilities. The artworks in Abstraction\, Color\, and Politics: The 1960s and 1970s demonstrate both radical and disarming changes in how artists worked and what they thought their art was about. Their new formal and intellectual strategies—seen here across large-scale and miniature work—dramatically transformed the practice of abstraction in the 1960s and 1970s in a politically shifting American landscape.\n\nUMMA gratefully acknowledges the following donors for their generous support:\n\nLead Exhibition Sponsors: University of Michigan Office of the Provost\, Michigan Medicine\, and College of Literature\, Science\, and the Arts\n\nExhibition Endowment Donors:  Richard and Rosann Noel Endowment Fund\, Herbert W. and Susan L. Johe Endowment\, and Robert and Janet Miller Fund\n\nUniversity of Michigan Funding Partners: Institute for Research on Women and Gender\, School of Social Work\, Department of Political Science\, and Department of Women's Studies UID:63803-15884074@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/63803 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Art,Exhibition,Museum,Politics,UMMA LOCATION:Museum of Art - A.

Drawing inspiration from his country’s basketry traditions\, the South African artist Walter Oltmann (b. 1960) alternates densely layered sections with open spaces\, allowing the underlying surface of the work to show through. The skull that emerges is\, in a South African context\, evocative of the Cradle of Humankind—a series of caves outside Johannesburg\, where some of the oldest hominin fossils in the world have been found.\n \nThe work complements UMMA’s renowned and growing collection of historical and contemporary African art and reminds us of the central role of Africa in the history of humankind.

Religious devotion in ancient Kush (a region located in modern-day northern Sudan)\, involved pilgrimage and leaving informal marks on temples\, pyramids\, and other monumental structures. These graffiti are found in temples throughout the later (“Meroitic”) period of Kush\, when it bordered Roman Egypt. They represent one of the few direct traces of the devotional practices of private people in Kush and hint at individuals’ thoughts\, values\, and daily lives. This exhibition explores the times and places in which Kushite graffiti were inscribed through photos\, text\, and interactive media presentations. At the heart of the show are the hundreds of Meroitic graffiti recently discovered in a rock-cut temple by the Kelsey expedition to El-Kurru in northern Sudan.\n\nCurators: Geoff Emberling and Suzanne Davis\n\nView the online exhibition:\nhttp://exhibitions.kelsey.lsa.umich.edu/graffiti-el-kurru/ UID:63992-16059359@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/63992 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:AEM Featured,Africa,Archaeology,Exhibition,Museum LOCATION:Kelsey Museum of Archaeology CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20190929T120011 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20190929T130000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20190929T160000 SUMMARY:Fair / Festival:Harvest Festival DESCRIPTION:Join us to celebrate the harvest season with food\, music\, farm tours\, and activities for people of all ages!

Reading Storied Ground in Medieval Rome DESCRIPTION:This paper argues that medieval Romans read elements in the city-scape to discover the evidence of sacred history. I use three case studies linked to saints Peter and Paul: divots in the Forum’s paving\, an ancient Roman votive offering\, and some springs at the church of Tre Fontane. The divots in the Forum’s pavement were damage\, which Romans read as as signs of Christian history\, claiming them as the knee prints left by Peter and Paul when they prayed for Simon Magus’ defeat. The votive offering is a pair of sculpted footprints. By the thirteenth century\, ignoring this origin\, Romans read them as Jesus’s footprints\, left on the spot where he greeted Peter at the walls of Rome. Both cases display a dominant factor in medieval people’s material imagination: the ability to read the stories they knew in the things they saw. The springs at Tre Fontane are a third kind of thing\, a natural phenomenon\, and they add a new kind of reading. Tre Fontane was taken as the site of Paul’s decapitation\, after which his head bounced three times\, each bounce creating a spring. This story differs from the preceding cases in that it was the product of reading both the landscape and images of Paul’s martyrdom\, which together suggested information absent from text. Taken together\, the three cases indicate that medieval Romans read their city’s urban and natural features in creative\, sophisticated and contingent ways.\n\n For more information\, please email willette@umich.edu.

The materials collected in this exhibit\, all held in the Special Collections Research Center\, showcase not only the variety\, beauty\, and originality of turn-of-the-century print-making\, but also new ideas about what a magazine can do: namely\, create distinctive communities around avant-garde ideas outside of mainstream channels. The communities imagined in these magazines are sometimes explicitly political or aesthetic\, but more often both combine in writers’ and artists’ resistance to mass-market\, industrial\, bourgeois\, and nationalist print cultures.\n\nThe magazines in this exhibit are mostly American and British\, but many are distinctively cosmopolitan\, crossing borders to engage with international movements like socialism\, decadence\, and modernism in their attempts to create an audience united by aesthetic and political ideals rather than nationality. Although the little magazines’ resistance to mainstream journalism shortened their lifespan and restricted their circulation\, their experimental approach has had a lasting impact on our sense of magazines as flexible aesthetic and social media.

First published in 1572 by Georg Braun (1541-1622) and Frans Hogenberg (1535-1590)\, Civitates was first intended as a companion to Ortelius’s Theatrum Orbis Terrarum. New editions of the city atlas continued to be printed through 1617. Hogenberg\, one of the most prolific engravers of the time\, was joined by many other engravers in creating the Civitates. Braun edited the work and provided the descriptions of the cities on the verso of each plate. This exhibit contains 18 works from the Civitates\, including many from the Clark Library’s holdings. Also included are reproductions of large panoramas Amsterdam\, London\, and St. Petersburg that reflect the evolution of city mapping through the 17th and 18th centuries.

It also explores how creators have pushed back against the colonialist\, hyper-masculine\, and racist ethos of the text by using the castaway narrative to explore self-sufficiency\, otherness\, and the role of gendered and racialized ideas in constructing the self.\n\nThis novel of shipwreck\, survival\, and rescue has become a cultural touchstone. Today\, many people who haven’t read the novel still feel familiar with key plot elements\, Robinson Crusoe\, and Friday. Yet\, there is less familiarity with how both the original text and many of the adaptations of Robinson Crusoe have fed into and reinforced narratives of imperialism and racism. Drawing on the Hubbard Collection of Imaginary Voyages - one of the world’s most comprehensive collections of editions\, translations\, adaptations\, and spin-offs of Robinson Crusoe - Other Crusoes\, Other Islands seeks to understand how readers and writers have engaged with the story since its initial publication in 1719.\n\nContent Advisory: Please be aware that some items in this exhibit feature racist imagery and potentially painful content. Although Robinson Crusoe is often treated as children’s literature and this exhibit includes children’s books and board games\, it is not an exhibit geared towards children and reflects the significant shifts over time in ideas about what is appropriate for children.

Using a generalized linear model with terms corresponding to the visual stimulus\, mouse running speed\, and experimentally measured neuronal correlations\, we modeled short term dynamics of L2/3 murine visual cortical neurons to evaluate the relative importance of each factor to neuronal variability within single trials. We find single trial predictions improve most when conditioning on the experimentally measured local correlations in comparison to predictions based on the stimulus or running speed. Specifically\, accurate predictions are driven by positively co-varying and synchronously active functional groups of neurons. Including functional groups in the model enhances decoding accuracy of sensory information compared to a model that assumes neuronal independence. Functional groups\, in encoding and decoding frameworks\, provide an operational definition of Hebbian assemblies in which local correlations largely explain neuronal responses on individual trials.\n\nBio: Jason MacLean is an Associate Professor in the Department of Neurobiology and director of undergraduate studies in neuroscience at the University of Chicago. His research aims to define how information is encoded in the brain by large groups of synaptically interconnected neurons using a range of analytical approaches.

We further show that that these errors are eliminated (or dramatically reduced) when self-serving motives are removed. Put differently\, we find that individuals make “motivated errors” — they act as if they are cognitively limited\, but only when it is self-serving to do so.

This would result in a social motivation whereby children help others because they want to provide the help themselves. However\, in a series of studies we find better support for an alternative explanation of children’s helping behaviour\, one that emphasizes their prosocial motivation to maintain cooperative relationships with others\, including their peers. To this end we studied a prosocial emotion that has thus far received little attention in the developmental literature: elevation. The central finding is that young children express positive emotions when seeing others being helped and more specifically when seeing others get the help they deserve. The pattern from a series of studies suggests that young children’s prosocial emotions are regulated not only by concern for their personal gain or by sympathy for others\, but reflect an emerging sense of deservingness as determined by social comparison.

Currently\, in liver\, a single subcutaneous administration supports a year of clinical efficacy\, changing our vision of how medicine will be practiced in the future.\nThe unprecedented duration of effect relies on oligonucleotide endocytosis and entrapment within endosomal/lysosomal compartments. These naturally formed\, intracellular deposits provide a continuous release of compounds for RISC loading and productive silencing\, supporting multi-month efficacy. Of course\, this approach is dependent on extensive and complex chemical stabilization that ensures the survival of the oligonucleotides in highly aggressive biological environments.\nIn the context of fully stabilized compounds\, we have used diverse chemical engineering to define the rules driving oligonucleotide distribution\, efficacy\, and toxicity. At this point\, efficient modulation of gene expression in multiple extrahepatic tissues is possible (muscle\, heart\, fat\, placenta\, etc). One of our engineering efforts resulted in the identification of a di-branched chemical scaffold that enables potent and durable gene silencing in the brain and spinal cord. Using huntingtin – the causative gene in Huntington disease – as a model\, we demonstrate that CNS-active RNAi induces potent protein silencing (~ 90%) in all brain regions tested in both rodents and non-human primates. Silencing persists for at least six months\, with the degree of gene modulation correlating to the level of the guide strand tissue accumulation. \nDemonstration of extrahepatic activity\, in particular the development of a CNS-active RNAi scaffold\, is opening other tissues and the brain for RNAi-based modulation of gene expression and establishing a path toward the development of new cures for genetically-defined neurodegenerative disorders.

This paper evaluates the economic consequences of being denied an abortion on the basis of gestational age of the pregnancy. Our analysis relies on new linkages to administrative data on ten years of credit reports for participants in the Turnaway Study\, the first study to collect high-quality\, longitudinal data on women receiving or being denied a wanted abortion. The study recruited women seeking an abortion at 30 health providers located in 21 states who fell in to one of two groups: the first group included women with pregnancies close to the facility's gestational age limit who received a wanted abortion (Near Limit Abortion Group)\, while the second group was women with pregnancies just over the facility's gestational age limit who were turned away without receiving an abortion (Turnaway Group). Our analysis compares differences in credit report outcomes for these two groups for 3 years prior and up to 5 years following the intended abortion using an event study design. We find that the trajectories for these outcomes are similar for the two groups of women during the pre-period. However\, following their visit to the abortion provider\, we find evidence of a large and persistent increase in financial distress for the women who were denied an abortion that is sustained for the 6 years following the intended abortion.\n\nWith Diana G.

Despite the attention that has been given this complex topic in both the professional and lay press the progress towards making patient safety a real priority in healthcare has been limited. Transforming healthcare so that patient safety becomes an inherent property embedded in the very fabric of the organization requires the adoption of a variety of values\, techniques\, and processes that are continually  reinforced by the words and deeds of leadership at all levels. Critical elements and methods for achieving this goal will be discussed.\n\nDr. James P. Bagian is the Director of the Center for Healthcare Engineering and Patient Safety and is a Professor in the  Department of Anesthesiology in the Medical School and the College of Engineering at the University of Michigan. Previously\, he served as the first Director of the VA National Center for Patient Safety (NCPS) and the first Chief Patient Safety Officer for the Department of Veterans Affairs from 1999 to 2010 where he developed numerous patient safety related tools and programs that have been adopted nationally and internationally. Dr. Bagian served as a NASA astronaut and is a veteran of two Space Shuttle missions and was an investigator of both the Challenger and Columbia Space Shuttle mishaps. Presently\, he is applying systems engineering approaches to the analysis of medical adverse events and the development and implementation of systems-based corrective actions that will enhance patient safety primarily through preventive means. He received his B.S. in mechanical engineering from Drexel University and his M.D. from Jefferson Medical College at Thomas Jefferson University. He is a Fellow of the Aerospace Medical Association\, a member of the National Academy of Engineering\, the Institute of Medicine\, and has received numerous awards for his work in the field of patient safety and aerospace medicine.\n\n1123 LBME is room 1123 in the Ann & Robert H. Lurie Biomedical Engineering Building (LBME). The street address is 1101 Beal Avenue. A map and directions are available at: http://www.bme.umich.edu/about/directions.php.\n\nThis seminar series is presented by the U-M Center for Healthcare Engineering and Patient Safety (CHEPS): Our mission is to improve the safety and quality of healthcare delivery through a multi-disciplinary\, systems-engineering approach. \n\nFor additional information and to be added to the weekly e-mail for the series\, please contact genehkim@umich.edu. \n\nPhotographs and video taken at this event may be used to promote CHEPS\, College of Engineering\, and the University.

'It Began with a Picture'\, or\, Inventing Stories to Make Sense of Images in the European Middle Ages. DESCRIPTION:This paper examines medieval discussions of iconography\, what an image represents. It concentrates on what Dale Kinney has called narrative etiologies\, that is cases where medieval viewers\, provoked by an image they did not understand\, invent a story that explains it. My examples include the contested reception of ruler portraits\, inquiries into images in churches\, and narrative elaborations on hagiographical images. These cases demonstrate that medieval viewers were quite happy to accept Pope Gregory the Great's invitation to read images as the literate read texts. For the art historian\, they offer gratifying proof that images may provoke verbal narratives instead of merely depending on them.

The materials collected in this exhibit\, all held in the Special Collections Research Center\, showcase not only the variety\, beauty\, and originality of turn-of-the-century print-making\, but also new ideas about what a magazine can do: namely\, create distinctive communities around avant-garde ideas outside of mainstream channels. The communities imagined in these magazines are sometimes explicitly political or aesthetic\, but more often both combine in writers’ and artists’ resistance to mass-market\, industrial\, bourgeois\, and nationalist print cultures.\n\nThe magazines in this exhibit are mostly American and British\, but many are distinctively cosmopolitan\, crossing borders to engage with international movements like socialism\, decadence\, and modernism in their attempts to create an audience united by aesthetic and political ideals rather than nationality. Although the little magazines’ resistance to mainstream journalism shortened their lifespan and restricted their circulation\, their experimental approach has had a lasting impact on our sense of magazines as flexible aesthetic and social media.

First published in 1572 by Georg Braun (1541-1622) and Frans Hogenberg (1535-1590)\, Civitates was first intended as a companion to Ortelius’s Theatrum Orbis Terrarum. New editions of the city atlas continued to be printed through 1617. Hogenberg\, one of the most prolific engravers of the time\, was joined by many other engravers in creating the Civitates. Braun edited the work and provided the descriptions of the cities on the verso of each plate. This exhibit contains 18 works from the Civitates\, including many from the Clark Library’s holdings. Also included are reproductions of large panoramas Amsterdam\, London\, and St. Petersburg that reflect the evolution of city mapping through the 17th and 18th centuries.

She immigrated to the U.S. in 1994\, and for the next 22 years\, New York became her home. In 2016\, she moved to Michigan to pursue an MFA at Cranbrook Academy of Art. She found the raw beauty of Detroit inspiring and kept her metalsmithing studio practice in the city. The copper and brass vessels in her Ваза series and other included works are a meditation on fluidity of memories: their ability to shift from reflection to re-invention over time. Each vessel potentially holds something within its boundaries\, whether tangible or not. \n\nGifts of Art Gallery – Taubman Health Center North Lobby\, Floor 1\n1500 E.

Religious devotion in ancient Kush (a region located in modern-day northern Sudan)\, involved pilgrimage and leaving informal marks on temples\, pyramids\, and other monumental structures. These graffiti are found in temples throughout the later (“Meroitic”) period of Kush\, when it bordered Roman Egypt. They represent one of the few direct traces of the devotional practices of private people in Kush and hint at individuals’ thoughts\, values\, and daily lives. This exhibition explores the times and places in which Kushite graffiti were inscribed through photos\, text\, and interactive media presentations. At the heart of the show are the hundreds of Meroitic graffiti recently discovered in a rock-cut temple by the Kelsey expedition to El-Kurru in northern Sudan.\n\nCurators: Geoff Emberling and Suzanne Davis\n\nView the online exhibition:\nhttp://exhibitions.kelsey.lsa.umich.edu/graffiti-el-kurru/ UID:63992-16059361@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/63992 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:AEM Featured,Africa,Archaeology,Exhibition,Museum LOCATION:Kelsey Museum of Archaeology CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20190927T114951 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20191001T090000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20191001T220000 SUMMARY:Exhibition:Light Behind Bars DESCRIPTION:This video exhibit showcases 672 artworks curated from the 2\,300 pieces submitted for the 24th Annual Exhibition of Art by Michigan Prisoners.

It also explores how creators have pushed back against the colonialist\, hyper-masculine\, and racist ethos of the text by using the castaway narrative to explore self-sufficiency\, otherness\, and the role of gendered and racialized ideas in constructing the self.\n\nThis novel of shipwreck\, survival\, and rescue has become a cultural touchstone. Today\, many people who haven’t read the novel still feel familiar with key plot elements\, Robinson Crusoe\, and Friday. Yet\, there is less familiarity with how both the original text and many of the adaptations of Robinson Crusoe have fed into and reinforced narratives of imperialism and racism. Drawing on the Hubbard Collection of Imaginary Voyages - one of the world’s most comprehensive collections of editions\, translations\, adaptations\, and spin-offs of Robinson Crusoe - Other Crusoes\, Other Islands seeks to understand how readers and writers have engaged with the story since its initial publication in 1719.\n\nContent Advisory: Please be aware that some items in this exhibit feature racist imagery and potentially painful content. Although Robinson Crusoe is often treated as children’s literature and this exhibit includes children’s books and board games\, it is not an exhibit geared towards children and reflects the significant shifts over time in ideas about what is appropriate for children.

In the early 1970s\, that question was hotly debated as artists\, critics\, and the public grappled with the relationship between art\, politics\, race\, and feminism. Many of those debates centered on bringing to light the roles that gender and race played in how “great modern art” was defined and assessed\, and on employing art to advance civil rights. Within this discourse\, abstraction had an especially fraught role. To many\, the decision by women artists and artists of color  to make abstract art seemed to represent a retreat from politics and protest: an abnegation of a commitment to civil rights and feminism. Abstraction\, Color\, and Politics in the Early 1970s presents large-scale work by four leading American artists—Helen Frankenthaler\, Sam Gilliam\, Al Loving\, and Louise Nevelson—who chose abstraction as a means of expression within the intense political climate of the early 1970s.\n\nUMMA gratefully acknowledges the following donors for their generous support of this exhibition:\n\nLead Exhibition Sponsors: University of Michigan Office of the Provost\, Michigan Medicine\, and College of Literature\, Science\, and the Arts\n\nExhibition Endowment Donors:  Richard and Rosann Noel Endowment Fund\, Herbert W. and Susan L. Johe Endowment\, and Robert and Janet Miller Fund\n\nUniversity of Michigan Funding Partners: Institute for Research on Women and Gender\, School of Social Work\, Department of Political Science\, and Department of Women's Studies UID:58562-14511276@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/58562 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Art,Exhibition,Museum,Politics,UMMA LOCATION:Museum of Art - A.

During these decades\, the notion that abstraction was a purely formal and American art form\, concerned only with timeless themes disconnected from the present\, was met with increased skepticism. Women artists and artists of color began to actively and assertively explore abstraction’s possibilities. The artworks in Abstraction\, Color\, and Politics: The 1960s and 1970s demonstrate both radical and disarming changes in how artists worked and what they thought their art was about. Their new formal and intellectual strategies—seen here across large-scale and miniature work—dramatically transformed the practice of abstraction in the 1960s and 1970s in a politically shifting American landscape.\n\nUMMA gratefully acknowledges the following donors for their generous support:\n\nLead Exhibition Sponsors: University of Michigan Office of the Provost\, Michigan Medicine\, and College of Literature\, Science\, and the Arts\n\nExhibition Endowment Donors:  Richard and Rosann Noel Endowment Fund\, Herbert W. and Susan L. Johe Endowment\, and Robert and Janet Miller Fund\n\nUniversity of Michigan Funding Partners: Institute for Research on Women and Gender\, School of Social Work\, Department of Political Science\, and Department of Women's Studies UID:63803-15884075@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/63803 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Art,Exhibition,Museum,Politics,UMMA LOCATION:Museum of Art - A.

Stamps School of Art & Design will host the New Media Caucus 2019 Symposium and Exhibition\, Border Control.  Symposium and exhibition events will take place in Ann Arbor at the Stamps School of Art and Design (2000 Bonisteel Blvd.) and Stamps Gallery (201 S. Division St.).\n\nExhibition Dates: September 20 - November 10\, 2019\nSymposium Dates: September 19 - 22\, 2019\nGuest Curator: Allison Collins\, Media Arts Curator\, Western Front\n\nCurated by Allison Collins in collaboration with Carrie Edinger and Srimoyee Mitra.\nIn partnership with the New Media Caucus \n\nHuman migration is a defining issue of the 21st century\, often calling into question the relevance\, role\, and responsibilities of national borders across the globe. As individuals seek refuge from geopolitical and environmental forces\, we become an increasingly globalized community. Demarcations of all types are simultaneously porous and closed\, defensive and receptive\, and seen in almost every facet of our existence. Border Control responds to these conditions with an open-ended question\, asking: “How has humanity made sense of the world in relation to borders and boundaries\, both physically and psychologically?” While positioned within (or outside of) defined spaces and identities\, human refusal of such literal definitions is paramount. Even while lines drawn have important consequences for lived reality\, the winds\, currents\, and natural energies of the Earth deny enclosures and definitions that politics and maps might suggest.\n\nDrawn from practices that are touched or driven by new media\, Border Control assembles works by artists who consider geographical contexts\, patterns of migration\, displacement\, and statelessness. Collectively\, they offer projects with subterfuge\, refusal\, and reconsideration of imposed state-sanctioned boundaries.\n\n \n\n  UID:63627-15820747@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/63627 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Art,Exhibition,Media LOCATION:Off Campus Location CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20190806T121549 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20191001T110000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20191001T170000 SUMMARY:Exhibition:Copies and Invention in East Asia DESCRIPTION:Far from being frowned upon as uncreative\, in China\, Korea\, and Japan\, copying has long been considered a valuable practice.

Drawing inspiration from his country’s basketry traditions\, the South African artist Walter Oltmann (b. 1960) alternates densely layered sections with open spaces\, allowing the underlying surface of the work to show through. The skull that emerges is\, in a South African context\, evocative of the Cradle of Humankind—a series of caves outside Johannesburg\, where some of the oldest hominin fossils in the world have been found.\n \nThe work complements UMMA’s renowned and growing collection of historical and contemporary African art and reminds us of the central role of Africa in the history of humankind.

In a series of studies\, we used pupillometry to design experimental paradigms that allow us to investigate physiological changes in the context of both children’s and chimpanzees’ social interactions. We applied these methods to study the underlying motivation of both prosocial behaviour and so-called inequity aversion. In young children\, we have further included measures of positive emotions using motion sensor technology. Together\, our results suggest that while specific social behaviours\, such as helping\, are a cross-species phenomenon among Great Apes\, the underlying motivation may be distinctly different between humans and chimpanzees.

Highly unusual for flowering plants\, species grow directly attached to rocks in river-rapids and waterfalls. Podostemaceae species exhibit high phenotypic plasticity and have highly modified growth forms\, both of which contribute to taxonomic confusion. Many of the estimated 300 riverweed species are narrowly distributed and incompletely known\, and evolutionary relationships within the family are uncertain. Unfortunately\, many species are of conservation concern and risk extinction due to the expansion of hydroelectric dams and massive reservoirs. This talk will detail the progress on a collaborative project to better understand the phylogeny\, biogeography\, and systematics of Podostemaceae. In particular\, we aim to better understand the biogeographical history of neotropical riverine organisms and the role that major river capture events during the Cenozoic have played in their distribution. The project includes significant fieldwork\, monographic work\, and an investigation of the structural organization of the family’s plastid genome. Finally\, we are also developing a new online resource designed to broadly disseminate information on the family as well as a new tool for the systematics community to more easily manage monographic data for publication.

For more than 26 years he has been working with museums\, art centers and community groups to create “tapetes” or carpets of colored sand for Mexican Día de los Muertos (Day of the Dead) celebrations. These installations are collaboratively designed and installed with community members over the course of several days. Lazo has had more than 50 solo shows throughout the United States\, Mexico\, and Japan and is represented by galleries in Oaxaca\, Mexico City\, Monterrey and Valle de Bravo. In Seattle\, where he has lived since 1990\, he is most known for his tireless work to create programs and spaces that are inclusive and reflect diverse audiences. He has co-founded some of Seattle’s most iconic traditions within the Latino community\, including Seattle’s annual Oaxacan celebration known as Guelaguetza\, International Children’s Day\, and the Day of the Dead celebrations at many venues\, including the Seattle Art Museum. Most recently he co-founded Studio Lazo\, an organization of artists and community members creating a welcoming venue that especially showcases the creativity of Latino artists\, writers and musicians. \n\nLazo will lecture on ofrendas\, a Día de los Muertos tradition from Mexico\, and on his artwork which includes the installations of tapetes\, carpets of colored sand in bright compositions to honor the dead.\n\nFor the full description of Fulgencio's visiting artist visit to Ann Arbor\, see https://lsa.umich.edu/rc/news-events/all-news/search-news/rc-studio-art-program-and-the-ann-arbor-district-library-welcome.html UID:67431-16849215@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/67431 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Art,Exhibition,Free,Latin America,Multicultural,Visual Arts LOCATION:East Quadrangle - Classroom B852 CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20190829T131947 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20191001T120000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20191001T130000 SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:LRCCS Noon Lecture Series | A Whiff of Nirvana: On Why Chinese Buddhists Were Not Vegans DESCRIPTION:Medieval Chinese Buddhists were some of the world's most strident animal rights activists.

As manga and anime have spread\, so too has the fan practice of cosplay\, dressing up as animated characters. The vast majority of cosplayers around the world are women. In this paper\, I examine the practice of cosplay in Taiwan\, and in particular\, cosplayers who dress as characters from a unique Taiwanese genre of animation\, “digital video swordplay puppetry.” There is a continuum of how cosplayers think and talk about cosplay. Some cosplayers\, especially in North America\, see cosplaying as a kind of acting and say they want to “become the character.” Others\, especially in Asia\, see cosplay more in terms of bringing puppet characters to life\, (re)animating them. I argue that cosplay appeals primarily to women because it is a pleasurable play form of the kinds of work that they are expected to do at work and in their social lives. Cosplay allows women to experiment with different ways of blending embodied and disembodied\, performative and animating\, forms of affective labor.\n\nBook giveaway!

It jeopardizes progress in closing the gender gap\, damages research integrity\, and results in a costly loss of talent. In 2016\, the National Academies of Sciences\, Engineering\, and Medicine assembled a committee to conduct a study on this problem. The committee published a comprehensive report in 2018 titled\, \"Sexual Harassment of Women: Climate\, Culture\, and Consequences in Academic Sciences\, Engineering\, and Medicine.\" The report identifies key findings on the causes and consequences of sexual harassment\, and lays out recommendations for institutional policies\, strategies\, and practices to address and prevent it. U-M Professors Lilia Cortina and Anna Kirkland were two members of that committee. In this talk they will review key findings from the report and discuss implications at the department level.\n\nPlease note: Should you require any accommodations to ensure equal access and opportunity related to this event please contact Stacy Tiburzi at 734-764-3440 or stibu@umich.edu.

Here\, I will describe our use of ultrafast nonlinear optics\, especially at terahertz (THz) frequencies\, to study three representative Dirac materials: graphene micro-ribbons\, topological insulators\, and Weyl semimetals. We used THz magneto-optical spectroscopy to examine periodic arrays of graphene micro-ribbons\, enabling us to control the transmission and Faraday rotation spectra of THz pulses via coupling to discretized magnetoplasmon modes. In the Weyl semimetal TaAs\, time-resolved second harmonic generation enabled us to reveal a new photoinduced phase\, and THz emission spectroscopy was used to provide new insight into the circular photogalvanic effect. Finally\, we used intense THz pulses to drive and coherently control structural dynamics in the topological insulator Bi2Se3. Overall\, our studies demonstrate the utility of nonlinear optics in shedding new light on both static and dynamic properties of topological materials. \n\nBiography: Dr. Rohit P. Prasankumar received a B.S. in Electrical Engineering from the University of Texas at Austin in 1997 and the M.S. and Ph.D. degrees in Electrical Engineering from MIT in 1999 and 2003\, respectively. His thesis work\, completed in 2003\, concentrated on developing novel approaches for self-starting mode-locking in solid state lasers.

Art & Resistance: Palestinian Contemporary Art and Challenges Facing U.S. Exhibition DESCRIPTION:How can art function as a means of political resistance? When does resistance against the exhibition of certain art function as a means of censorship? This talk attempts to address these questions through an examination of contemporary Palestinian art practices. Beginning with an introduction into the art practices of some contemporary Palestinian artists living both within historic Palestine and the diaspora\, I will discuss how these artists use their work to highlight and challenge the realities of life under persistent occupation\, as well as how their practices must adapt to a settler colonial context. Then\, turning towards a U.S. context\, I address the obstacles to exhibiting and discussing Palestinian art in the States in recent case studies. These difficulties manifest in museum exhibitions through an insistence on “fairness\,” “balance\,” and an insurance to tell the stories of “both sides” of the conflict when discussing Palestine and Israel. This formulation ignores the unequal balance of power inherent in Palestine (both historically and contemporarily)\, which has resulted in Palestinian artists withdrawing from exhibitions where they feel this imbalance is normalized.

While big hospitals are able to absorb the cost of owning and maintaining multi-million dollar DaVinci surgical robots and associated infrastructure\, small community hospitals face a difficult decision.\n\nIn this talk\, I will present this dilemma faced by Cadillac Hospital\, which serves the rural community of about 80\,000 residents in seven counties in northern Michigan. A few years ago\, we had to decide to either invest significant time\, money\, and personnel in creating and running a robotics program\, or lose our patients and surgeons to bigger hospitals and medical centers. This would be a loss for the\nlocal community\, economy\, and quality of living. Instead\, we looked for alternate options. There weren’t many but the most promising one seemed to be a technology from our own state – FlexDex – created at the University of Michigan.\n\nI will describe how I ended up adopting FlexDex and pioneering complex surgical procedures with it just as they would be performed on the DaVinci surgical robot but at much lower costs to the hospital. I have now performed over four hundred FlexDex procedures including hernia repair\, colon resection\, fundoplication\, and hysterectomy. The savings from this decision and the “notoriety” that this brought us has expanded our surgical efficiency as well as capabilities.\n\nFlexDex is now spreading all over the world and is being adopted in urology\, gynecology\, cardiothoracic\, bariatric\, and whipple procedures among others. I will discuss the future potential of this technology in providing greater access to minimally invasive surgery world-wide at an affordable cost. I will also discuss ongoing technology needs and challenges that remain in surgery that might\ninspire new research and innovation at universities.\n\nBio\nDr. Kent Bowden\, D.O. is a General Surgeon at Cadillac Hospital\, Munson Healthcare. He trained at the College of Osteopathic Medicine\, Michigan State University and graduated in 2005. He completed his Residency at Ingham Regional Medical Center in Lansing\, MI in 2010\, and joined private practice in a rural hospital where he could have a broad-spectrum practice. His objective as a surgeon is to\nprovide cost-effective\, personalized and world-class care to patients in his local community. In addition to pioneering cases with FlexDex\, he enjoys coaching basketball at his children's school and spending time outdoors with his family. Dr. Bowden is a Fellow of the American College of Osteopathic Surgeons (FACOS).

In general\, however\, these species are highly reactive and difficult to isolate and study. In this talk I will present our laboratories efforts at isolating and studying late transition metal oxo complexes. We have found that use of pseudo-tetrahedral geometries enables the isolation of an unusual terminal Co-oxo complex. The reactivity of this species towards C-H activation is markedly different than that observed for the majority of other systems and provides experimental evidence for a new mechanistic scenario dubbed \"asynchronous\" CPET. Finally\, the possible relevance of related Co and Ni complexes in this system towards O-O bond formation will be discussed.\nJohn Anderson (University of Chicago) UID:63512-15767677@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/63512 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Biosciences,Chemistry,Science LOCATION:Chemistry Dow Lab - 1640 Chemistry CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20190925T160919 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20191001T160000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20191001T170000 SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Taking Airbus into the Future–Flight Physics Outlook DESCRIPTION:Marc Fischer\nHead of Flight Physics\nSenior Vice President\, Engineering\, Airbus Group\n\nThe talk provides a general overview of Airbus Group and Flight Physics\, the global challenges of the aeronautical industry\, and shows how Model Based Systems Engineering can contribute to meet these challenges.\n \nAirbus Group is an aircraft manufacturer with three divisions for commercial aircraft\, helicopters\, and defense and space.
