FFRDCs are partnerships between a government agency (like DoE\, DoD\, NASA\, NSF\, etc) and a private institution (usually universities) with the goal to do science research on behalf of the government\, outside of any organizational conflicts of interest that can arise in industry contracts. I’ll talk about how a DoD lab like Lincoln is different from DoE labs like Argonne\, Fermi\, or LBNL National Labs\, and how it’s different from working in industry or academia\, both in terms of the types of projects and the project funding paths. The MIT-LL employee base includes a wide variety scientists and engineers at the PhD\, MS/ME\, and BS/BA/BE levels\; I’ll give an overview of research topics across the Lab with special attention to areas with significant physics presence. In particular\, I’ll show some results from my group’s MACHETE ladar mapping sensor and talk about how physics and engineering intersect when we’re designing and testing airborne sensor platforms.\n\nThe Multi-look Airborne Collector for Human Encampment and Terrain Extraction (MACHETE) is a ladar system that produces high-quality\, 3D imagery from data captured from an altitude of 25 kft over a wide area at a very fast coverage rate. This system also can peek through openings in dense canopy to form detailed images of natural and human-made structures existing at and near the ground level. For a forested area that has 90% canopy cover and is the size of New York City’s Central Park (3.4 km 2 )\, MACHETE can provide detailed images of every building\, footbridge\, and walkway below the canopy at 25 cm resolution in about 5 minutes.\n\nEmily Peterson is a ladar and optical sensor designer at MIT Lincoln Laboratory\, and is an AMO physicist by training\, with a PhD from University of Michigan in 2005. She did her dissertation work in Phil Bucksbaum’s group using ultrafast lasers to study nonsequential double ionization of noble gasses\, and polarization-driven molecular alignment. That work extended to time-resolved x-ray measurements of laser-ionization processes during a post-doc at Argonne National Lab. In 2008 she joined the plasma spectroscopy group at Osram-Sylvania Lighting to study high-pressure discharge lamp technologies\, until industry funding for plasma R&D faded with increasing consumer interest in LEDs. Since 2014\, she has applied her grad school skills with pulsed lasers\, detection statistics\, optics and electronics hardware\, and experiment design in the Active Optical Systems group at MIT Lincoln Lab\, where she models\, designs\, builds\, and tests ladar sensor systems.

The role of flexible work policies and their implementation DESCRIPTION:This study examines how flexible work policies (e.g.\, time off\, flextime\, working from home) can help to change the “overwork” culture prevailing in American workplaces and its impact on employees’ work and health outcomes. Using the original survey of 4\,013 employees\, based on a probability-based panel designed to be representative of the U.S. household population\, we find that “ideal worker” norms – which promote a single-minded commitment to work – largely persist in organizations offering flexible work polices. However\, we also find that when these policies are implemented with additional organizational support -- gender-neutral framing\, transparency in policy granting\, and easy accessibility\, and managerial support -- employees are less likely to associate “successful employees” with the ideal worker norm of working long hours\, unlimited availability\, and prioritizing work over other matters. Moreover\, employees under these conditions report higher self-assessed job fit and job satisfaction and better health outcomes\, compared to employees in organizations where flexible work policies are implemented in less supportive\, more gendered\, and more discretionary ways. These findings suggest that the efficacy of flexible work policies depends more on how these policies are implemented\, rather than just their availability.

Examples range from bird flocks and human crowds to migrating cells and biopolymer gels\, including synthetic systems like phoretic colloids and robots. Such active materials exhibit emergent collective phenomena that break cherished conservation laws (of energy\, mass\, momentum\, etc.)\, and raise natural questions regarding how they can be controlled.

This chemical stratification of the crust is deeply influenced by metamorphism and partial melting of the middle-to-lower continental crust. These processes are energy intensive\, particularly in the middle crust due to elevated heat fluxes imposed by surface temperatures. Moreover\, contrary to the view of a global mafic lower crust\, felsic metasedimentary rocks are commonly found in exhumed metamorphic terranes and xenoliths from the deep crust. The presence of these sedimentary rocks\, which are typically enriched in heat producing elements (U\, Th\, K)\, within the lower crust alters the thermal profile and rheology of the continental crust\, potentially leading to destabilization. In this talk I will explore two Variscan middle-to-lower continental crust exposures\, the Trois Seigneurs Massif\, French Pyrenees\, and the Ivrea-Verbano Zone\, Italian Alps\, to investigate the mechanisms responsible for the addition of sedimentary rocks to the deep crust\, alongside the mechanisms and timescales of metamorphism and partial melting of these sedimentary rocks. Massifs formed at the end of the Variscan Orogeny\, including these two field sites\, record widespread metamorphism and partial melting events within the continental crust\, and as such are ideal places to answer long-standing questions regarding crustal formation and evolution.

It brings together three different modes of representing reality: social\, scientific\, and literary. Colonial ethnography attempted to understand caste as a distinct form of Indian civil society and painstakingly theorized caste-as-race. Colonial nutrition\, drawing on ethnographic understandings of caste\, hierarchized the very innards of Indians by mapping the racial basis of caste along the lines of contemporary dietary debates about protein. All the while\, colonial novelists used ethnographic and dietary understandings of caste to envision their version of a realistic world in a fictional form. The incipient form of the realist novel in India thus deployed caste as the perfect marriage of exteriority and interiority to represent a legible Indian reality in a newly imported form. In connecting these seemingly disparate modes of reality perception\, Sapui argues that in late nineteenth and early twentieth century India\, caste epistemologies\, understood as observable physical differences and knowable communal characteristics\, were key to understanding what is construed as Indian reality. In this regard\, seeing to know—the cornerstone of all empirical knowledge—as this talk will show\, assumes political\, pedagogical\, and insidiously persistent charge.\n\nMeghna Sapui is a postdoctoral fellow at the Michigan Society of Fellows and an assistant professor of English language and literature at the University of Michigan. Her work has appeared in *ELH\, Victorian Literature and Culture\, Victorian Review*\, and *Global Food History*.

Psychological safety and moral courage bring experts together with the community\, including members of marginalized groups\, to create a healthy foundation. A community feedback system facilitates the identification of workplace climate issues so they are promptly and effectively addressed. Cultural Competence leverages the established safety and courage base to chart a path to an inclusive culture and harness the power of diverse perspectives. Under this framework\, sponsored events can address many forms of oppression and empower thriving workspaces. Collaborating technical and cultural subject matter experts in supported community-based workshops and trainings\, provide a scaffolding for continued growth in individual spaces. Accurate use of the “Healthy to Innovative Framework” in learning and work spaces can transform climates and cultures to maximize innovation in a “People-Centered” focus that drives outcomes and discovery for an emerging fusion and fusion-adjacent energy workforce. \n\nCAPT Royce W.

The multi-GRAMMY nominee is beloved and honored worldwide for the fearlessness\, honesty and humor of her revelatory songs\, as well as for her winning\, engaging personality. The Chicago Tribune says\, “Copeland is the greatest female blues vocalist working today. There’s no mistaking the majesty of her instrument\, nor the ferocity of her delivery.”\n \nOn Copeland’s new album\, Blame It On Eve\, the songs all hit hard\, with jaw-dropping performances that instantly take hold and command repeated listening. “There’s serious business on the new album\,” Copeland says\, “but there are a lot of smiles here too\, a lot of joyous moments. It’s my blues for sure but it’s the brighter side. Issues are always important to me\, but so is rocking\, dancing and just having fun. And that’s something we all can all agree on.”\n\nWith Blame It On Eve\, Copeland embarks on what she calls “a vacation from all the heaviness.” Blame It On Eve contains plenty of Copeland’s trademark bold and courageous songs\, but here Copeland is also looking to unplug from the weight of the world. “My last three records have dealt with breaking news\,” she says. “This record is for people like me who want a break from the news.” UID:114732-21833394@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/114732 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Ark,Concert,Music,Mutotix LOCATION:Off Campus Location CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20240901T220924 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20240906T210000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20240906T230000 SUMMARY:Reception / Open House:SAS Open House DESCRIPTION:Open houses are free\, inclusive opportunities to learn more about astronomy and experience the universe firsthand.

The works on view in this exhibition\, all brought into the Museum between 2019 and the present\, shows how institutions like UMMA are becoming more permeable to societal challenges\, and more nimble in responding to them in service to all in their communities. In this exhibition you will find works that reflect on how global migrations\, race\, gender\, and ecological change shape the way we engage with the world and inform our visions for the future.\n \nThis collection of artistic engagements with issues give us tools to envision who we want to be as individuals\, as a museum\, and as a society\, connected to one another across space and experience.\n \nSo gather here to take in these latest works of art brought here for you. Gather here to be engulfed in their forms and meanings\, to discuss their takes\, to learn\, to disagree. Gather to relax\, make a friend\, drink a coffee\, finish the daily Wordle. Gather to feel full\, to be moved and inspired by all the possible imaginations of what is yet to come.\n \nCurated by Félix Zamora Gómez Irving Stenn\, Jr. Fellow in Public Humanities & Museum Pedagogy\n\nLead support for this exhibition is provided by Lizzie and Jonathan Tisch\, the Richard and Rosann Noel Endowment\, and the University of Michigan Office of the Provost.\n  UID:107870-21817905@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/107870 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Art,Exhibition,Free,Humanities,Museum,Staff,UMMA LOCATION:Museum of Art - Lizzie and Jonathan Tisch Apse CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20240130T121551 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20240907T110000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20240907T200000 SUMMARY:Exhibition:Unsettling Histories: Legacies of Slavery and Colonialism DESCRIPTION:Organized as a response to the Museum’s recent acquisition of Titus Kaphar’s Flay (James Madison)\, this upcoming reinstallation of one of our most prominent gallery spaces forces us to grapple with our collection of European and American art\, 1650-1850.\n \nIn recent times\, growing public awareness of the continued reverberations of the legacy of slavery and colonization has challenged museums to examine the uncomfortable histories contained in our collections\, and challenged the public to probe the choices we make about those stories. 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:84303-21621384@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:20240620T181506 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20240907T110200 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20240907T170000 SUMMARY:Exhibition:Michelle Hinojosa: Logcabins DESCRIPTION:Stamps Gallery commissioned Michelle Hinojosa (MFA\, 2023) to reimagine the pillars on Division Street that flank the Gallery. Hinojosa has created log cabin quilts to adorn the columns in front of Stamps Gallery. The log cabin quilts traditionally represent the warm hearth at the center of a home. This installation reflects on the interplay between home\, placemaking\, labor\, and intergenerational memories of migration. Rather than quilting cotton designed to softly embrace the body\, these quilts are sewn from outdoor grade\, UV-resistant polyester. The quilt is an ode to Hinojosa’s grandmother who illegally crossed the US/Mexico border holding her babies and her quilts. As she and her family drove across the United States to work in the fields of the Salinas Valley\, the quilts offered a safe space for her and her family. Hinojosa celebrates their resilience to her grandmother and elders while also drawing attention to precarity and violence experienced by refugees and migrants crossing the US-Mexico border in our present today.\nArtist’s bio:\nMichelle Inez Hinojosa is an artist\, educator\, and researcher whose work is informed by Indigenous and Latine/x/a/o studies. Born and raised in Texas\, she earned her Bachelor of Fine Arts degree in both drawing and painting and art education with a minor in art history at the University of North Texas. She holds a Master of Fine Arts from the University of Michigan. She works with quilting\, bead weaving\, embroidery\, jewelry\, transparent film installations\, painting\, ceramics\, and sculpture to honor and explore the history of migration in her family and humanize the current discourse around migration still occurring at the southern border. Alongside her artwork she maintains a writing practice to re-story\, re-make\, and re-claim the often subordinated narratives of Latinx\, Chicanx\, Mexican\, and Texican peoples. \n\nRecently\, Hinojosa was named an inaugural Creative Careers Artist in Residence at the University of Michigan\, she has also attended residencies at Mildred's Lane (Pennsylvania)\, Anderson Ranch Art Center (Aspen\, CO) and The Cedars Union (Dallas\, TX).

With a range of diverse offerings\, united together by enthusiasm\, skill\, and passion for the legacy surrounding the music of Django Reinhardt\, this iteration of Ann Arbor's burgeoning new series is sure to delight\, transport\, and inspire.\n \nDjangophonique is an award winning project that delivers the infectious joy\, and expressive freedom that is at the heart of Django Reinhardt’s jazz manouche. With respect for the tradition and a fearless creativity that bends the conventions of the style\, Djangophonique is keeping the Hot Club revival alive and well. The result is a sound that’s unmistakable to fans of the music\, and alluring to the uninitiated—a sound that can bring the lively energy of a Parisian dance hall to the quietest listening room or captivate a buzzing festival audience with the aching nostalgia of a shimmering ballad.\n \nChristo Ruppenthal is an award-winning multi-instrumentalist and music entrepreneur whose professional career started in 2003. He presents a unique mixture of Vaudeville-era novelty infused hot steel guitar playing from the 1920s and 30s \"Hawaiian Craze\" combined with the swinging sounds of Django Reinhardt’s 1930s and 40s guitar-driven Hot Club jazz. Think “Hot Hawaiian guitar meets Jazz à la Django!” Christo is an avid recording artist and performer with thousands of gigs both across the U.S. and internationally to his credit. \n\nInspired by a melting pot of moods\, styles\, and spirit heard in recordings from the 1920s and 30s (by such artists as Eddie Lang\, Louis Armstrong\, Blind Blake\, Lonnie Johnson\, Billie Holiday\, Django Reinhardt\, Blind Boy Fuller\, Agustín Barrios Mangoré\, The Carter Family\, Jimmie Rodgers...)\, Erik McIntyre continues to hone a distinct musical voice that pays homage with a personal touch. His playing is spontaneous yet studious — synergizing “muse” and “ic”. Whether as soloist or sideman\, his arrangements\, improvisations\, and compositions weave a tapestry that is filtered through a warm lens of nostalgia and invites listeners to his inner world.

The works on view in this exhibition\, all brought into the Museum between 2019 and the present\, shows how institutions like UMMA are becoming more permeable to societal challenges\, and more nimble in responding to them in service to all in their communities. In this exhibition you will find works that reflect on how global migrations\, race\, gender\, and ecological change shape the way we engage with the world and inform our visions for the future.\n \nThis collection of artistic engagements with issues give us tools to envision who we want to be as individuals\, as a museum\, and as a society\, connected to one another across space and experience.\n \nSo gather here to take in these latest works of art brought here for you. Gather here to be engulfed in their forms and meanings\, to discuss their takes\, to learn\, to disagree. Gather to relax\, make a friend\, drink a coffee\, finish the daily Wordle. Gather to feel full\, to be moved and inspired by all the possible imaginations of what is yet to come.\n \nCurated by Félix Zamora Gómez Irving Stenn\, Jr. Fellow in Public Humanities & Museum Pedagogy\n\nLead support for this exhibition is provided by Lizzie and Jonathan Tisch\, the Richard and Rosann Noel Endowment\, and the University of Michigan Office of the Provost.\n  UID:107870-21817906@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/107870 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Art,Exhibition,Free,Humanities,Museum,Staff,UMMA LOCATION:Museum of Art - Lizzie and Jonathan Tisch Apse CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20240130T121551 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20240908T110000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20240908T200000 SUMMARY:Exhibition:Unsettling Histories: Legacies of Slavery and Colonialism DESCRIPTION:Organized as a response to the Museum’s recent acquisition of Titus Kaphar’s Flay (James Madison)\, this upcoming reinstallation of one of our most prominent gallery spaces forces us to grapple with our collection of European and American art\, 1650-1850.\n \nIn recent times\, growing public awareness of the continued reverberations of the legacy of slavery and colonization has challenged museums to examine the uncomfortable histories contained in our collections\, and challenged the public to probe the choices we make about those stories. 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:84303-21621385@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:20240908T120006 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20240908T111100 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20240908T121100 SUMMARY:Other:H2O Sunday Service DESCRIPTION:Come join us for praise and worship with students and alumni from UoM at the Rackham Building (4th floor).

For over 60 years\, the region has been host to the activities of multinational oil corporations who partner with the Nigerian state in exploiting oil for profit. Oil was first discovered in the region in 1956\, and the first shipment of the commodity to the international market occurred in 1958 with a consignment of about 5\,000 barrels per day (bpd). Production peaked at about 2.5 million bpd\, but today\, because of community protests\, insurgency\, and general disruption to the activities of corporations\, the number hovers between 1.2 million to 1.4 million bpd. While the state has benefited immensely from oil production\, the same cannot be said of the communities that are hosts to pipelines\, flow stations\, and all of the oil infrastructure that has come to define the entire region. Loss of livelihood\, heavily polluted environment\, death\, and displacement have characterized the region’s interaction with multinational oil corporations such as Shell\, Chevron\, ExxonMobil\, Eni\, Total Energies\, etc.\n\nThis exhibition is a bold attempt to shed light on what it means to live in an oil extractive enclave like the Niger Delta region of Nigeria. The images showcase the lives lived\, the loss\, perseverance\, and determination to survive.\n\nThe exhibition is divided into two parts. The first part of the exhibition is displayed in the DAAS gallery with the sub-theme “People Crossings and the Dangers of Oil Pollution” and is a demonstration of the everyday lived experiences of the inhabitants of many of the enclaves of the Niger Delta. As depicted in the photos\, people cross polluted rivers to go to school and in search of a means of survival.\n\nGallery visitors are invited to cross from the DAAS Gallery to the International Institute Gallery on the 5th floor of Weiser Hall to see the second part of the exhibition\, “Living\, Community\, and Polluted Environment.” This portion of the exhibition demonstrates community resilience in the face of environmental persecution. It shows everyday life amid oil infrastructure that litters the entire landscape of many of the communities in the Niger Delta region of Nigeria.\n\n— - - -\nNnimmo Bassey is an architect\, environmental justice activist\, writer\, and poet. His latest poetry collection is titled I See the Invisible (2023). Other collections include I Will Not Dance to Your Beat(2011) and We Thought It Was Oil But It Was Blood (2002). He is director of the ecological think-tank\, Health of Mother Earth Foundation (HOMEF).\n\nOmolade Adunbi is a professor of Anthropology\, Afroamerican and African Studies and Law at the University of Michigan. His research examines the dynamics of power\, natural resource extractive practices\, governance\, human and environmental rights\, culture\, transnational institutions\, multinational corporations\, and the postcolonial state. His latest book\, Enclaves of Exception: Special Economic Zones and Extractive Practices in Nigeria (Indiana University Press\,2022)\, offers a new approach to exploring the relationship between oil and technologies of extraction and their interrelatedness to China’s interest in free trade zones and its impact on local livelihoods and environmental practices.\n\n*Nnimmo Bassey’s photos courtesy of the Health of Mother Earth Foundation (HOMEF).* UID:126212-21856706@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/126212 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:African Studies,African Studies Center,Exhibition,International LOCATION:Weiser Hall - 555, International Institute Gallery (5th Floor) CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20240830T112455 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20240909T090000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20240909T200000 SUMMARY:Exhibition:Mrs. Dalloway and WWI: Home Front and War Front DESCRIPTION:This exhibit explores the characters of Mrs. Dalloway through the lens of WWI and its aftershocks.

David Hilbert\, arguably one of the greatest mathematicians of his time\, described Choice as the axiom \"most attacked up to the present in the mathematical literature\;\" and in Gregory Moore's words \"if the Axiom's most severe constructivist critics prevailed\, mathematics would be reduced to a collection of algorithms.\"\n\nModern mathematics\, however\, severely relies on the Axiom\, even if not in its full strength. Commonly used mathematical principles such as Zorn's Lemma\, the trichotomy of cardinals\, the right-invertibility of surjective functions\, and the existence of a basis for arbitrary vector spaces are all consequences of\, and\, in fact\, equivalent to\, the Axiom of Choice.\n\nThrough this inaugural talk of the Student Logic and History of Math Seminar\, we explore some of the history\, philosophy\, and mathematics surrounding the Axiom of Choice.

In theory\, NQS architectures are broadly applicable\, and have been demonstrated successfully on several fundamental applications. We seek to further explore the practical utility of NQS as a black box solver for various applications in the scientific computing domain. We first present NQS as an explicit avenue for de-quantizing variational quantum eigensolvers\, demonstrating with the variational quantum linear solver (VQLS). We then explore the utility of VQLS and its de-quantization\, VNLS\, as black box solvers for a Newton-based linear complementarity solver\, used to model the time evolution of a rudimentary soil system. We introduce a new retentive network (RetNet) autoregressive NQS ansatz to solve electronic ground state calculations in computational quantum chemistry\, and we finish with a scaling law analysis of the RetNet architecture and its immediate autoregressive predecessors as applied to electronic structure calculations.\n\nHybrid Defense:\n5822 East Hall\nhttps://umich.zoom.us/j/92606555957 UID:125757-21856064@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/125757 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Dissertation,Mathematics LOCATION:East Hall - 5822 CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20240924T123407 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20240909T140000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20240909T143000 SUMMARY:Careers / Jobs:Homes.com - Sales Associate Opportunities DESCRIPTION:Homes.comHomes.com is the fastest-growing real estate portal in the industry\, and we are driven to be#1.

DESCRIPTION:The adaptive immune system of vertebrates is able to learn from past experiences to better suit an unforeseen future. This is made possible by a diverse and dynamic repertoire of lymphocytes expressing unique antigen receptors and capable of rapid evolution within an individual. However\, naturally occurring immune responses exhibit limits in efficacy\, speed and capacity to adapt to new challenges. In this talk\, I will present conceptual and computational frameworks to (1) explore functional impact of non-equilibrium antigen recognition and (2) identify conditions under which natural selection acting local in time can find adaptable solutions favorable in the long run – in light of viral-immune coevolution. Using these examples\, I show that immune cells can exploit physical constraints to extract signal and expand their adaptive potential. Considering information propagation from receptor to repertoire and back lets us rethink the logic behind proofreading\, in a dynamical system that demands precision and balance while facing perpetual disturbances.

In particular\, the merger of binary black holes results in gravitational wave memory. I will discuss the prospects for measuring memory from binary black hole mergers.\n\nThough gravitational wave memory is a consequence of the nonlinear Einstein field equations\, it can be most easily understood by using linear perturbation theory with the Weyl tensor as the basic variable. Gravitational perturbation theory using the Weyl tensor is analogous to Maxwell's equations for electromagnetism.

There is no place for refugees’ suffering in the countries of exile when survival becomes proof of their deservingness. In this context of forced exile\, autonomy\, and survival become closely linked to\, if not defined by\, integration\, which is\, at the same time\, hindered by racism\, discrimination\, and othering policies. This superposition of trauma survival and integration creates a hard-to-break-from conundrum for exiles\, as they are expected to heal to integrate when healing is almost impossible in disintegration.\n\nThis 'survival regime' has impacted migration and integration policies. It allowed perceptions of and expectations from refugees in Western European host countries to change\, opening the possibility for policymakers to perceive refugees not only as people to protect based on international law obligations but also (and mostly) as an economic opportunity and a dividend. It has also deeply reshaped therapeutic practices\, disrupting the roles of psychiatrists and psychotherapists\, and redefining what 'therapeutic' and 'psychological recovery' mean.\"\n\nMayssa Rekhis is a Medical Doctor\, who graduated from the University of Tunis el-Manar\, Tunisia\, and an anthropologist\, holding a Ph.D from the School of Advanced Studies in Social Sciences EHESS - Paris\, France.

For over 60 years\, the region has been host to the activities of multinational oil corporations who partner with the Nigerian state in exploiting oil for profit. Oil was first discovered in the region in 1956\, and the first shipment of the commodity to the international market occurred in 1958 with a consignment of about 5\,000 barrels per day (bpd). Production peaked at about 2.5 million bpd\, but today\, because of community protests\, insurgency\, and general disruption to the activities of corporations\, the number hovers between 1.2 million to 1.4 million bpd. While the state has benefited immensely from oil production\, the same cannot be said of the communities that are hosts to pipelines\, flow stations\, and all of the oil infrastructure that has come to define the entire region. Loss of livelihood\, heavily polluted environment\, death\, and displacement have characterized the region’s interaction with multinational oil corporations such as Shell\, Chevron\, ExxonMobil\, Eni\, Total Energies\, etc.\n\nThis exhibition is a bold attempt to shed light on what it means to live in an oil extractive enclave like the Niger Delta region of Nigeria. The images showcase the lives lived\, the loss\, perseverance\, and determination to survive. \n\nThe exhibition is divided into two parts. The first part of the exhibition is displayed in the DAAS gallery with the sub-theme “People Crossings and the Dangers of Oil Pollution” and is a demonstration of the everyday lived experiences of the inhabitants of many of the enclaves of the Niger Delta. As depicted in the photos\, people cross polluted rivers to go to school and in search of a means of survival. \n\nGallery visitors are invited to cross from the DAAS Gallery to the International Institute Gallery on the 5th floor of Weiser Hall to see the second part of the exhibition\, “Living\, Community\, and Polluted Environment.” This portion of the exhibition demonstrates community resilience in the face of environmental persecution. It shows everyday life amid oil infrastructure that litters the entire landscape of many of the communities in the Niger Delta region of Nigeria.\n\n— - - -\nNnimmo Bassey is an architect\, environmental justice activist\, writer\, and poet. His latest poetry collection is titled I See the Invisible (2023). Other collections include I Will Not Dance to Your Beat(2011) and We Thought It Was Oil But It Was Blood (2002). He is director of the ecological think-tank\, Health of Mother Earth Foundation (HOMEF). \n\nOmolade Adunbi is a professor of Anthropology\, Afroamerican and African Studies and Law at the University of Michigan. His research examines the dynamics of power\, natural resource extractive practices\, governance\, human and environmental rights\, culture\, transnational institutions\, multinational corporations\, and the postcolonial state. His latest book\, Enclaves of Exception: Special Economic Zones and Extractive Practices in Nigeria (Indiana University Press\,2022)\, offers a new approach to exploring the relationship between oil and technologies of extraction and their interrelatedness to China’s interest in free trade zones and its impact on local livelihoods and environmental practices. \n\nDiepreye Amanah is a Nigerian-American poet from Charlotte\, North Carolina. She holds an MFA from the University of Michigan and is an assistant editor for the Michigan Quarterly Review.

In her book \"The Beauty of Difference—think differently together\"\, which was nominated for the prize „der Leipziger Buchmesse“ in 2022\, she tells her personal story and combines it with socio-political reflections about Germany as a migration society. She develops visions of how we can unlearn what we have learned. In October 2024\, her second book \"Be together\" will be published.\n\nBased on this work\, her reading is about perceptions of difference\, changing perspectives\, and empowerment with translated texts.

The seventeen life-size figures\, crafted from found objects and beach flotsam\, are a poignant response to the tragedies in Savageau’s life\, including the loss of her three children. Through this deeply personal and powerful work\, Savageau reimagines discarded materials as symbols of new life and resilience\, reflecting the healing power of art.\n\nAnn Savageau will be in residence in Ann Arbor and the Residential College from September 16-20 and October 20-25\, 2024.

For over 60 years\, the region has been host to the activities of multinational oil corporations who partner with the Nigerian state in exploiting oil for profit. Oil was first discovered in the region in 1956\, and the first shipment of the commodity to the international market occurred in 1958 with a consignment of about 5\,000 barrels per day (bpd). Production peaked at about 2.5 million bpd\, but today\, because of community protests\, insurgency\, and general disruption to the activities of corporations\, the number hovers between 1.2 million to 1.4 million bpd. While the state has benefited immensely from oil production\, the same cannot be said of the communities that are hosts to pipelines\, flow stations\, and all of the oil infrastructure that has come to define the entire region. Loss of livelihood\, heavily polluted environment\, death\, and displacement have characterized the region’s interaction with multinational oil corporations such as Shell\, Chevron\, ExxonMobil\, Eni\, Total Energies\, etc.\n\nThis exhibition is a bold attempt to shed light on what it means to live in an oil extractive enclave like the Niger Delta region of Nigeria. The images showcase the lives lived\, the loss\, perseverance\, and determination to survive.\n\nThe exhibition is divided into two parts. The first part of the exhibition is displayed in the DAAS gallery with the sub-theme “People Crossings and the Dangers of Oil Pollution” and is a demonstration of the everyday lived experiences of the inhabitants of many of the enclaves of the Niger Delta. As depicted in the photos\, people cross polluted rivers to go to school and in search of a means of survival.\n\nGallery visitors are invited to cross from the DAAS Gallery to the International Institute Gallery on the 5th floor of Weiser Hall to see the second part of the exhibition\, “Living\, Community\, and Polluted Environment.” This portion of the exhibition demonstrates community resilience in the face of environmental persecution. It shows everyday life amid oil infrastructure that litters the entire landscape of many of the communities in the Niger Delta region of Nigeria.\n\n— - - -\nNnimmo Bassey is an architect\, environmental justice activist\, writer\, and poet. His latest poetry collection is titled I See the Invisible (2023). Other collections include I Will Not Dance to Your Beat(2011) and We Thought It Was Oil But It Was Blood (2002). He is director of the ecological think-tank\, Health of Mother Earth Foundation (HOMEF).\n\nOmolade Adunbi is a professor of Anthropology\, Afroamerican and African Studies and Law at the University of Michigan. His research examines the dynamics of power\, natural resource extractive practices\, governance\, human and environmental rights\, culture\, transnational institutions\, multinational corporations\, and the postcolonial state. His latest book\, Enclaves of Exception: Special Economic Zones and Extractive Practices in Nigeria (Indiana University Press\,2022)\, offers a new approach to exploring the relationship between oil and technologies of extraction and their interrelatedness to China’s interest in free trade zones and its impact on local livelihoods and environmental practices.\n\n*Nnimmo Bassey’s photos courtesy of the Health of Mother Earth Foundation (HOMEF).* UID:126212-21856707@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/126212 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:African Studies,African Studies Center,Exhibition,International LOCATION:Weiser Hall - 555, International Institute Gallery (5th Floor) CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20240830T112455 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20240910T090000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20240910T200000 SUMMARY:Exhibition:Mrs. Dalloway and WWI: Home Front and War Front DESCRIPTION:This exhibit explores the characters of Mrs. Dalloway through the lens of WWI and its aftershocks.

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

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:84303-21621386@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:20240814T154032 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20240910T113000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20240910T130000 SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Macro Seminar: Tuesday\, September 10 DESCRIPTION:-- UID:124275-21852833@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/124275 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Economics,Macroeconomics,seminar LOCATION:Lorch Hall - 201 CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20240925T063342 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20240910T120000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20240910T130000 SUMMARY:Careers / Jobs:A&M's Consumer & Retail Group | Company Presentation | FT & InternRoles DESCRIPTION:Please also register using the following link:https://www.signupgenius.com/go/10C0D4DA5AA28A0FBCE9-50886454-amcrgAlvarez &\; Marsal (A&\;M) is a premier independent global professional services firm specializing in providing turnaround management\, restructuring\, performance improvement and corporate advisory services. Established five years ago\, A&\;M’s Consumer &\; Retail Group continues to experience high growth.  A&\;M’s Consumer and Retail Group combines the best of A&\;M’s bias toward action and practicality with deep industryexperience from bringing together management consultants and operators. Our purpose is to translate our experience\, innovative thinking and bias for action into tangible results for our clients\, putting themon the right side of this disruption\, and positioning them for long termsuccess. The work we do:\nGrowthStrategy &\; Implementation\nLarge Scale Transformation\nM&\;A\, Carve-out and Post-Merger Integration\nOperations\nMerchandising &\; Assortment Optimization\nInterim Leadership\n Who will you be working with?We are not a typical consulting firm.

Attendees learn from leading positive organizational scholars and connect with our community of academics\, students\, staff\, and leaders. \n \nAbout the talk: \nCynicism is an understandable response to a world full of injustice and inequality. But in many cases\, it is misplaced. Dozens of studies find that people fail to realize how kind\, generous\, and open-minded others really are. Cynical thinking deepens social problems: when we expect the worst in people\, we often bring it out of them. We don’t have to remain stuck in this cynicism trap.\n\nJoin Jamil Zaki\, author of  \"Hope for Cynics: The Surprising Science of Human Goodness\,\" in a fireside chat with Ethan Kross to learn the secret for beating back cynicism: hopeful skepticism—thinking critically about people and our problems\, while simultaneously acknowledging our power. Through science and storytelling\, Jamil will share how hopeful skepticism can strengthen relationships\, schools\, businesses\, and social movements. This philosophy isn’t about naïve optimism\; it’s about magnifying the good in people while remaining critical. Hopeful skepticism honors humanity’s strengths while confronting our weaknesses head-on.\n \nAbout Zaki: \nJamil Zaki is a full professor of psychology at Stanford University. He and his colleagues study social connection\, including empathy\, cooperation\, and trust (see ssnl.stanford.edu for details)\, and develop tools to help people connect more effectively.\n\nDr. Zaki received his BA in cognitive neuroscience from Boston University and his PhD in psychology from Columbia University and conducted postdoctoral research at the Harvard Center for Brain Science. He has published over 100 peer-reviewed articles and received about two dozen awards from scientific associations and universities. In 2019 he was awarded the Presidential Early Career Award for Scientists and Engineers (PECASE)\, the US Government’s highest honor for researchers at his career stage.\n\nHost: \nEthan Kross\, Faculty Associate\, Center for Positive Organizations\; Professor of Psychology and Management & Organizations\, University of Michigan\n \nSeries Sponsors: \nThe Center for Positive Organizations thanks the Sanger Leadership Center\, Tauber Institute for Global Operations\, and Samuel Zell & Robert H.

In this talk\, we'll introduce them and relate the existence of finite Gröbner bases to the noetherianity property. We'll then give an adaptation of Gröbner bases for non-noetherian rings that takes into account natural equivariant structures of the rings and describe how such rings exhibit \"noetherianity up to symmetry\".
