SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:CAS Guest Lecture. The Mormon Colony Scheme in the late Ottoman Empire: Attempts to Alleviate the Abject Poverty facing Armenian Converts to Mormonism (1897-1928)
DESCRIPTION:From the early 1880s till the end of the Ottoman Empire\, the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (Mormon Church) sent dozens of missionaries to the Middle East in order to proselyte and establish the Mormon Church in the region as part of its Millenarian aspirations to prepare for the second coming of Jesus Christ through preaching its “Restored Gospel of Jesus Christ” and commence the gathering of Israel. During this almost 40-year period hundreds of Ottoman-Armenians converted to Mormonism with congregations in Aintab\, Aleppo\, Zara\, and Maraş. This presentation discusses the struggles faced by the Mormon Armenian community\, particularly in terms of providing for its basic necessities during the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries and the community’s attempts to ameliorate these dire circumstances. Deeply impoverished due to awful economic circumstances within the broader Ottoman Empire\, but also exacerbated by persecution from the Ottoman government and local Armenians\, the LDS Armenian community and its Missionary leaders attempted various schemes\, such as carpet weaving\, textile manufacture\, agriculture\, and several abortive attempts to establish a “Mormon Colony” in the Holy Land. This presentation investigates these attempts at self-sufficiency and communalism within the context of growing Western Imperialism in the Middle East and how this intersected with the Millenarian aspirations of the Mormon Missionaries and their Protestant competitors.\n   \n   Bio:\n   Kent Schull is an Associate Professor of Ottoman and Modern Middle East History and Director of both the Center for Middle East and North Africa Studies (CMENAS) and The Ottoman Demographic\, Social\, and Family History Research Group at Binghamton University\, SUNY. He is a twice Fulbright Scholar to Turkey. He is also a book series editor for Edinburgh Studies on the Ottoman Empire. His most recent book is *Missionary to the Middle East: The Journals of Joseph Wilford Booth*\, co-authored with James Toronto and published by Brigham Young University's Religious Studies Center in 2024. His research engages the history of the Ottoman Empire and the modern Middle East\, particularly criminal justice\, Missiology\, and Forced Migration in the MENA region.\n\nIf there is anything we can do to make this event accessible to you\, please contact armenianstudies@umich.edu.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:CM-AMO Seminar | Symmetries in Open Quantum Systems: Autonomous Error Correction and Quantum Metrology
DESCRIPTION:Hybrid Lecture: Join us on Zoom if you can't come in person: https://umich.zoom.us/j/7650373624\n\nQuantum systems are fundamental to developing new technologies and studying fundamental science. However\, current systems cannot be fully isolated from the environment\, which can introduce detrimental noise effects that destroy useful quantum features in these open quantum systems. Nevertheless\, in some circumstances it is possible to instead utilize the environment as a resource via symmetries. Although the implications of symmetries in Hamiltonian systems are well-understood\, in open quantum systems the situation is more complex. In this talk\, I will show how two classes of symmetry exist for open quantum systems\, “weak” and “strong”\, and I will demonstrate the utility of strong symmetries via two examples. First\, I will identify connections between steady state phase transitions and autonomous error correction\, a form of quantum error correction in which active measurement and feedback is no longer needed. Second\, I will show how strong symmetries allow for the preparation of highly-entangled collective states known as spin-squeezed states\, which can be experimentally realized in optical cavity systems for quantum-enhanced metrology.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Colloquium Seminar: Dynamical algebraic combinatorics and webs
DESCRIPTION:Many combinatorial objects with strikingly good enumerative formulae also have remarkable dynamical behavior and underlying algebraic structure. In this talk\, we consider the promotion action on certain rectangular tableaux and explain its small\, predictable order by reinterpreting promotion as a rotation in disguise. We show how the search for this visual explanation of combinatorial dynamics led to the solution of an algebraic problem involving web bases and a generalization of the six-vertex model of statistical physics. We find that this framework includes several unexpected combinatorial objects of interest: alternating sign matrices\, plane partitions\, and their symmetry classes (joint with Ashleigh Adams). This talk is based primarily on joint work with Christian Gaetz\, Stephan Pfannerer\, Oliver Pechenik\, and Joshua P. Swanson.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Penny Stamps Speaker Series - Gluklya
DESCRIPTION:Gluklya\, a pioneering figure in Russian performance art\, was invited by the Garage Museum of Contemporary Art in Moscow to explore post-Soviet colonialism through artistic research. Her film\, Gulmira’s Fairy Tales (2022)\, is the result of a collaborative process\, weaving together stories from female garment workers she met during her visits to Kyrgyzstan in 2021–22.Featuring a powerful performance by actress Gulmira Tursunbaeva as a TV host sharing feminist fairy tales\, the film intersperses storytelling with evocative scenes of dance and street performance in Bishkek. In contrast to the Soviet era’s regulated labor conditions\, today’s garment industry prioritizes efficiency and output over worker well-being\, with no limits on work hours. The film’s narratives draw from the personal experiences of seamstresses\, materials from the human rights organization Open Line\, and archival records from the Moscow Archive of Female Workers in the USSR.Following the screening\, Gluklya will join CREES Director Elizabeth King\, associate professor of health behavior &amp\; health equity and global public health\, and CREES Faculty Associate Irina Aristarkhova\, professor at the Penny W. Stamps School of Art &amp\; Design and the Digital Studies Institute\, for a discussion.Gluklya further explores these themes in her talk\, which takes place Wednesday\, March 12\, 2025 from noon to 1:20 pm in room 555 of Weiser Hall. Gluklya will share her approach of using imagination and play to explore the harsh realities and human side of labor experiences among female garment workers.Additionally\, her exhibition Threading the Needle: Vestiges of Colonialism and Femininity (Dianne Beal\, Curator)will be on view on March 12\, 2025\, from 8:00 AM to 5:00 PM in room 547 of Weiser Hall. Through film\, sculpture\, watercolors\, and felt tapestries\, Gluklya examines the experiences of Kyrgyz textile workers\, exposing the intersections of gender\, labor\, and colonial legacies.\nIn partnership with the Center for Russian\, East European\, &amp\; Eurasian Studies. \nSeries presenting partners: Detroit PBS\, ALL ARTS\, and PBS Books. Media partner: Michigan Public.

SUMMARY:Performance:Marcia Ball
DESCRIPTION:“Rollicking\, playful\, good-time blues and intimate\, reflective balladry…her songs ring with emotional depth.” –Rolling Stone\n\n“Fifty years have passed in a flash\,” says Texas-born\, Louisiana-raised pianist\, songwriter and vocalist Marcia Ball of her long and storied career. Ball\, the 2018 Texas State Musician Of The Year\, has won worldwide fame and countless fans for her ability to ignite a full-scale roadhouse rhythm and blues party every time she takes the stage. Her rollicking Texas boogies\, swampy New Orleans ballads and groove-laden Gulf Coast blues have made her a one-of-a-kind favorite with music lovers all over the world. \n\nWith each new release\, her reputation as a profoundly soulful singer\, a boundlessly talented pianist\, and a courageous\, inventive songwriter continues to grow. Her love of the road has led to years of soul-satisfying performances at festivals\, concert halls and clubs. The New York Times says\, “Marcia Ball plays two-fisted New Orleans barrelhouse piano and sings in a husky\, knowing voice about all the trouble men and women can get into on the way to a good time.” The Houston Chronicle says simply\, “She’s as perfect as an artist can be.”

SUMMARY:Exhibition:A Prison\, a Prisoner\, and a Prison Guard
DESCRIPTION:Join us for a multimedia exploration of the impact of prisons on countries and communities across the Middle East and North Africa (MENA) region through the lens of “prison art.” The exhibit delves into the dynamic interplay between incarceration and creative expression to make sense of carceral systems.\n\nBy presenting prison art from various countries in the MENA region\, including Algeria\, Egypt\, Iran\, Iraq\, Lebanon\, Palestine\, Sudan\, Syria\, and Yemen\, this exhibit unfolds as a “journey” into the prison system and demonstrates the ways in which art can be a tool of expression and reconciliation for survivors\, detainees’ families\, and society at large. It promotes drawing parallels between the prison experience in the region and worldwide\, highlights the intentionality of carceral systems\, and expands the conversation to include prison-impacted communities. Viewers are invited to navigate the cross-generational\, human experiences of imprisonment often obscured behind prison walls and within individuals.\n\nCurated by Sumaya Tabbah and Susan Aboeid of The Ḥafathah Collective\, this traveling exhibit was organized by U-M Students Organize for Syria (SOS) in partnership with U-M Library and with support from the U-M Arts Initiative.\n\nPlan to attend the related discussion\, \"Art\, Justice\, and Carcerality: The Role of Creative Expression in the Pursuit of Justice\,\" on February 6.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:CREES Exhibition. Threading the Needle: Vestiges of Colonialism and Femininity\, an installation by Gluklya
DESCRIPTION:Gluklya’s work is a powerful example of socially engaged art at the intersections of gender\, class\, and cultural identity. By focusing on experiences of female textile workers in Kyrgyzstan\, the artist explores the often-overlooked stories of women affected by Soviet and post-Soviet colonialism. \"Threading the Needle: Vestiges of Colonialism and Femininity\" retells their stories using a diverse range of media — film\, sculpture\, watercolors\, and felt tapestries. Unfolding the implications of economic and societal pressures on women\, Gluklya explores issues of poverty\, isolation\, and exploitation among the garment workers.\n   \n   Personal stories are woven into a broader social context — such as the legacy of the \"Likbez\" (liquidation of illiteracy) campaign among women in Central Asia during Soviet rule and entrenched patriarchal traditions\, like \"Ala Kachuu\" (bride-kidnapping). This dynamic — where colonization and modernization intertwine the individual lives they touch — raises questions about cultural identity and the ethical borders of decolonized research.\n\nThis exhibition was curated by CREES alumna Dianne Beal (BA REES '79). See more of her work here: https://www.diannebeal.com/curatorial.\n   \nIf there is anything we can do to make this event accessible to you\, please contact us at crees@umich.edu. Please be aware that advance notice is necessary as some accommodations may require more time for the university to arrange.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:A Material World
DESCRIPTION:This exhibition seeks to explore the intersection of two seemingly disparate fields—engineering and the visual arts—through the lens of Materials Science and Engineering (MSE). While both disciplines are extensively studied and practiced\, their convergence is often overlooked. With this body of work\, artist Trevor Balduck aim's to bridge that gap by presenting MSE not only as a technical pursuit but as a source of inspiration and beauty within the realm of artistic expression.\n\nThe eight pieces in this exhibit form a cohesive 2x4 grid measuring 4x8 feet\, guiding viewers through a chronological exploration of the processes involved in materials-focused research. Each work is an abstraction of the actions and methodologies found in a materials lab—transformed into visual representations that capture the elegance inherent in the science behind material properties and manipulation. These pieces illustrate the idea that MSE\, in its essence\, shares a parallel with art: both fields rely on experimentation\, transformation\, and discovery.\n\n\nIn constructing these works\, Trevor employed a range of mediums\, including acrylics\, oils\, metallic paints\, tapes\, and sprays\, which reflect the broad spectrum of materials that artists engage with in their practice. The varied use of materials serves as a direct parallel to the diversity of substances and techniques explored in MSE. Some of the works intentionally mimic specific processes\, such as the creation of grain orientation maps\, material cutting\, and oxidation\, translating technical procedures into visual forms that invite contemplation and interpretation.\n\nUltimately\, this exhibition aims to celebrate the beauty of both the scientific and artistic worlds\, demonstrating that\, at their core\, they are not so different—both are dedicated to understanding\, manipulating\, and giving new form to the materials of the world around us. Through this work\, Trevor hopes to inspire a deeper appreciation for the art inherent in science\, and vice versa\, showing that the boundaries between disciplines are not fixed\, but fluid and full of potential.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Andy Ross Exhibition
DESCRIPTION:The pieces here are from a large series of works made over the last several years. In them\, Ross explores humor and personal meaning through absurd juxtapositions of pairs of wildly varied images. Each single image is stripped of its original context (be it\, for example\, a history book\, an instruction manual\, or a magazine advertisement)\, placed on a white background like some kind of specimen\, and presented afresh with a new “companion image.” These companion images confront\, contrast and converse with each other\, and thereby build new relationships\, narratives\, jokes\, and contexts.\n\nAndy Ross grew up in Macomb County\, and has been making art in various mediums since the 1970s. He received a BFA degree from College for Creative Studies\, and an MFA degree from University of Michigan. He has taught photography\, art\, and web design at colleges in California and Michigan. His photographs and collages have been exhibited in schools\, galleries\, and museums across the United States.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Elizabeth Boyd-Hartmann Dizik Exhibition
DESCRIPTION:This body of work represents a playful exploration of form\, color\, and scale through the lens of cellular shapes. Inspired by the complex patterns of biological life\, the pieces are a celebration of growth\, transformation\, and the joy of experimentation. The use of non-precious materials\, such as wood balls and paint\, allowed for a liberating approach to composition and color\, while the spherical forms and circular panels evoke the look of petri dishes—symbolizing both scientific curiosity and organic development.\nBorn in Detroit\, Elizabeth is a multidisciplinary artist and mother based in the metro Detroit area\, where she works from a studio in her home. With a background in bench jewelry\, her earlier work focused on studio jewelry and was represented by Galerie Noel Guyomarc’h in Montreal.\nElizabeth’s work has been exhibited both locally and internationally. She holds a BA in Jewelry Design\, with First Class Honours\, from Central Saint Martins in London\, a BFA from the University of Michigan\, and an MFA from Cranbrook Academy of Art\, where she specialized in Metalsmithing and Architecture. Her diverse practice spans jewelry\, sculpture\, and installation\, blending materials and techniques to explore themes of production\, growth\, transformation\, and organic form.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Redefining the Crown
DESCRIPTION:In Winter 2025\, the Lane Hall exhibit space will feature a portraiture series titled Redefining the Crown showcasing the powerful stories of six Black breast cancer survivors.\n\nBased on a photo essay by U-M Faculty Versha Pleasant (MD/MPH) and Ava Purkiss (PhD) in Medicine at Michigan\, this exhibition examines the cultural and personal significance of hair within Black communities\, particularly through the lens of breast cancer treatment and recovery. The term \"crown\" is deeply symbolic in Black culture\, signifying beauty\, strength\, and identity. The featured photo essay by photographer Tafari Stevenson-Howard captures the intimate journeys of Ann Chatman\, Tanisha Kennedy\, Felecia McDaniel\, Shantell Elaine McCoy\, Tamara Lynn Myles\, and Veleria Banks.\n\nThrough their narratives and portraits\, the exhibit examines how these women have navigated the profound impact of hair loss caused by chemotherapy\, inviting the audience to witness their stories with radical empathy. It explores the cultural pride and personal identity intricately tied to their hair\, and how these elements are redefined amidst their battles with breast cancer.\n\nThe exhibit will be on view from January 21\, 2025 to August 8\, 2025. This exhibition is presented with support from IRWG\, the Department of Women's and Gender Studies\, and Michigan Medicine. \n\nLocated on the first floor of Lane Hall (204 S. State Street)\, the Exhibit Space is free and open to the public\, M-F\, 9am-4pm.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:The Bibliophile and the Library: Private-Press Books from the Collection of Bill Heidrich
DESCRIPTION:View beautifully illustrated books that stand as remarkable testaments to the work of twentieth-century small private presses\, which\, in contrast to the trend of mass commercialization\, produced limited editions that celebrated the uniqueness of manual craftsmanship. Features such as exquisite typeface design\, letterpress printing\, handmade paper\, traditional illustration techniques like woodcut and engraving\, and the inclusion of original art by renowned artists highlight the presses' dedication to artistry and detail.\n\nThe display opens with an edition of \"The Works of Geoffrey Chaucer\,\" published in 1896 by William Morris at his Kelmscott Press\, a pivotal press that greatly influenced the development of the private press movement as a means of preserving and revitalizing the fine printing and art traditions of the past. Additionally\, the exhibit includes some examples of artist’s proofs\, offering a glimpse into the intricate creative process behind these exceptional works.\n\nThese books are on loan from the collection of Bill Heidrich\, a long-time supporter of the University of Michigan Library.

SUMMARY:Presentation:EEB Student Dissertation Defense: Causes and consequences of disease outbreaks in aquatic environments
DESCRIPTION:Libby Davenport\, EEB PhD student\, presents their dissertation defense.\n\nAbstract: Disease outbreaks of environmentally transmitted parasites require that susceptible hosts encounter infective transmission stages (spores) distributed within environmental reservoirs and become infected. However\, we have limited empirical data about how changes in parasite environmental spore abundance influence disease dynamics. This is concerning because many environmentally transmitted parasites (e.g.\, chronic wasting disease\, white-nose syndrome\, anthrax\, etc.) pose major threats to human\, livestock\, and wildlife health. Moreover\, factors such as resource availability may affect the infection probability of a parasite during an encounter with a host as well as impacts of that parasite on exposed or infected hosts. Chronic sublethal impacts of parasites on host traits related to gut function may have consequences that scale up to affect ecosystem processes\, such as primary productivity and biogeochemical cycling\, although these potential impacts of parasitism remain relatively unexplored. My dissertation combines a multi-faceted six-month field study with a series of laboratory experiments to address the following questions: How does parasite spore abundance in the environment change over time and space? What is the relationship between disease outbreaks and spore abundance in the environment? How does resource availability affect infection success and impacts of a microsporidian parasite on its dominant grazer host?\nIn my dissertation research\, I used the freshwater invertebrate host Daphnia dentifera and five of its naturally occurring environmentally transmitted parasites to answer these questions. During my six-month field study\, I quantified spore abundance of the five parasites at every meter of the water column in the deep basin of six lakes in southeastern Michigan every two weeks using a digital PCR assay that I designed. Field-collected spore abundance data revealed that environmental spore abundance changed by several orders of magnitude over time and space and that lake basin shape and the strength of seasonal thermal stratification affected the evenness of spore distributions\, altering host-parasite encounter rates. When examining the relationship between environmental spore concentration and disease outbreaks\, I found significant time lags between the peaks in environmental spore concentration and infection prevalence\, which may have been influenced by parasite traits.\nIn my laboratory experiments\, I found that a microsporidian parasite was more likely to infect hosts when resources were abundant and this parasite significantly reduced grazing rates of infected hosts (although this impact was present at different times depending on resource availability). Thus\, the parasite-induced reduction in grazing rate could have broad impacts on lake food webs since the host is a dominant grazer\; these results set the stage for further investigation of how and when effects of parasitism scale up to influence higher-order ecological phenomena.\nOverall\, my dissertation contains one of the most comprehensive field studies examining the dynamic relationship between disease outbreaks and spore abundance in the environment and identifies resource-dependent impacts of a parasite on host density and traits that may have broader ecological consequences.\n\nThis is a hybrid event. \nTo join via Zoom: https://umich.zoom.us/j/94783248528\nPasscode: daphnia

SUMMARY:Other:Leaves Under the Lens
DESCRIPTION:The leaf surface is a dynamic landscape where tiny\, specialized structures help plants interact with the world around them. Let’s bring this world into view! Join us for an exhibit that highlights the complex and often beautiful anatomy of leaves from the Matthaei collection. Plants throughout the conservatory will be paired with microscope photographs and micro-CT scans that illustrate the otherwise invisible structures that protect leaves from chewing insects\, absorb (or repel!) water\, and even recruit “bodyguards”. You won’t look at leaves the same way again! \n\nThis project is a collaboration between MBGNA and the Weber and Vasconcelos labs in the Department of Ecology and Evolutionary Biology\, led by PhD student Rosemary Glos.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:A Gathering
DESCRIPTION:Welcome. 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. 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

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

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).

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Brown Bag Seminar | Dynamical Edge Modes and Entanglement in Gauge Theory
DESCRIPTION:Standard approaches to entanglement entropy assume a factorization of the Hilbert space along subregions. All QFTs have UV obstructions to this factorization\, requiring regularization. Gauge theories have additional\, global/IR obstructions. The treatment in the existing literature for entanglement entropy in gauge theories involves a by-hand path integral over non-dynamical superselection sectors\, labeled by edge modes. I will describe a new approach that treats the edge modes dynamically\, incorporating them into a single phase space\, and allows the entanglement to be written as a genuine thermal trace on a subregion. I will provide checks in all dimensions by comparing with recent results on sphere partition functions.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Colorism Multimedia Exhibit
DESCRIPTION:Colorism comprises works of video\, still photography\, and sculpture questioning our psychosocial and biological ideas about skin color and treatment of people\, based on skin tones\, including within racial groups. This exhibit asks: What do we know about the root causes of prejudice toward skin color? What can we do to improve interpersonal and structural colorism? To answer these questions\, Prof. Rogério Pinto (Social Work) uses personal and historical materials and interview data to optimize audience interaction\, including critical dialogues around colorism while audiences are viewing the installation or immediately after viewing it.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:CREES Noon Lecture. Artist’s Talk on Threading the Needle: Vestiges of Colonialism and Femininity
DESCRIPTION:Gluklya (Natalya Pershina Yakimanskaya) will present her research on the exploitation of women working in the textile and fashion industries of Kyrgyzstan\, related to her exhibit on display in the International Institute’s gallery from March 11 to May 4.\n   \n   In 2020\, the artist was invited by Moscow’s Garage Museum of Contemporary Art to participate in the research laboratory Space 1520\, devoted to Soviet and post-Soviet colonialism. Upon discovering that Kyrgyzstan is a major player in the textile industries that produce garments mainly for export to the Russian market\, Gluklya traveled to Bishkek. She was allowed to visit factories and meet with textile workers. The stories she heard\, and conditions she encountered\, profoundly changed her view of reality.\n   \n   Returning to Amsterdam\, the title of her monumental exhibition at Framer Framed\, \"To Those Who Have No Time To Play\,\" evolved from her visits to the home of the seamstress Rahat. Shocked by the living conditions she witnessed\, her well thought-out and researched questions were no longer relevant. Instead\, the artist engaged Rahat by asking how she played as a child.\n   \n   In this lecture\, Gluklya will share her approach of using imagination and play to explore the harsh realities and human side of labor experiences among female garment workers.\n   \n   Gluklya (Natalia Pershina-Yakimanskaya) is a pioneer of Russian feminist performance art\, and she lives and works in Amsterdam. She uses installation\, performance\, video\, watercolor\, text\, and research to develop a concept of “fragility” — a subject that should be interpreted not in the sense of “beauty\,” but as “invisible strength.” In her projects\, she addresses her characters’ personal stories\, analyzing them and revealing the conflict between political systems and one’s inner world.\n\n   Her work process is playful\, and her studio often turns into a meeting place where people work together on conceptualizing clothes and making other useable artistic items. Gluklya’s oeuvre speaks of indignation and hope. With her projects she proposes poetic ways to resist injustice and to find empowerment.\n   \n   At the 56th Venice Biennale\, Gluklya presented \"Clothes in Demonstration against the False Election of Vladimir Putin\" (2011 – 2015) in the exhibition \"All the World’s Futures\,\" curated by Okwui Enwezor. The installation documents hope\, dreams\, and traumas of people who went into the streets in 2011-15 to demonstrate against the oppressive government. For her research for \"Two Natures of Colonialism: Russian and European/Lives and Work of Oppressed Women\,\" Gluklya visited Indonesia and Kyrgyzstan from 2019-2022. Those experiences continue to have a strong influence on her work.\n   \n   Illustration credit: Gluklya\n   \nIf there is anything we can do to make this event accessible to you\, please contact us at crees@umich.edu. Please be aware that advance notice is necessary as some accommodations may require more time for the university to arrange.

SUMMARY:Presentation:Global South Gender & Sexuality Collective: Violent Intimacies: The Trans Everyday and the Making of an Urban World
DESCRIPTION:In *Violent Intimacies*\, Aslı Zengin traces how trans people in Turkey creatively negotiate and resist everyday cisheteronormative violence. Drawing on the history and ethnography of the trans communal life in Istanbul\, Zengin develops an understanding of cisheteronormative violence that expands beyond sex\, gender and sexuality. She shows how cisheteronormativity forms a connective tissue among neoliberal governmentality\, biopolitical and necropolitical regimes\, nationalist religiosity\, and authoritarian management of social difference. As much as trans people are shaped by these processes\, they also transform them in intimate ways. Transness in Turkey provides an insightful site for developing new perspectives on statecraft\, securitization and surveillance\, family and kin-making\, urban geography\, and political life. Zengin offers the concept of violent intimacies to theorize this entangled world of the trans everyday where violence and intimacy are co-constitutive. Violent intimacies emerge from trans people’s everyday interactions with the police\, religious and medical institutions\, street life\, family and kinship\, and trans femicides and funerals. The dynamic of violent intimacies prompts new understandings of violence and intimacy and the world-making struggles of trans people in a Middle Eastern context.\n\nAsli Zengin is an Assistant Professor in the Department of Women’s\, Gender and Sexuality Studies at Rutgers University-New Brunswick. Her first book\, Intimacy of Power: Women Prostitutes\, Sex Work and Violence in Istanbul (Iktidarin Mahremiyeti: Istanbul’da Hayat Kadinlari\, Seks Isciligi ve Siddet)\, was published in Turkish. Her new book\, Violent Intimacies: The Trans Everyday and the Making of an Urban World\, was recently published by Duke University Press and won the 2024 Ruth Benedict Prize from the Association for Queer Anthropology. Dr. Zengin's research lies at the intersection of ethnography of sex/gender non-conforming lives and deaths\; medico-legal regimes of sex\, gender\, and sexuality\; critical studies of violence and sovereignty\; politics of mourning and grief\; and transnational feminist and LGBTQ movements in the Middle East\, with a special focus on Turkey.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:More than Gray: Reimagining Early America in Full Color
DESCRIPTION:The American past was lived in full color\, but this vibrant history can be easily missed in surviving evidence. You can’t deny that there’s something about a black-and-white photograph that feels… stuffy. With portraits showing people with their shirts buttoned right to the neck and everything in shades of gray and brown\, our imaginations can incline to thinking of the past as a bit staid\, if not downright dull. But look a little closer\, and you’ll see signs that the fashion choices available to those who came before us were more colorful than you might first think. From the fabrics they wore\, to the games they played\, or the books they read\, their world was alive with bright hues. This exhibit invites you to reimagine history with a fuller color palette and picture the vibrancy and joy that just might be hidden behind the unsmiling photographs.\n\nExhibition opening weekdays from 12-4.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:MPSDS JPSM Seminar Series - Statistics is a Core Competency for Sound Health Policy
DESCRIPTION:MPSDS JPSM Seminar Series\nMarch 12\, 2025\n12:00-1:00 pm EDT\n\nIn person\, Room G300 Perry Building\, and via Zoom.\nThe Zoom call will be locked 10 minutes after the start of the presentation. \n\nStatistics is a Core Competency for Sound Health Policy \n\nThe American Statistical Association vision imagines a world that relies on data and statistical thinking to drive discovery and inform decisions.  We know the challenges to attaining this vision are significant\, so collaboration is key.  As a statistician working to inform policy and decision making\, I know it will take collaboration across disciplines to address society’s biggest challenges—e.g.\, pandemic recovery\, climate change\, precision medicine\, education reform\, or criminal justice. In an era of data ubiquity and rapid analysis\, statisticians and data scientists are positioned to play a central role across application areas.  The gold standard for public policy is evidence-based decision making—deliberate and strategic application of real facts and research-supported principles that yields objective evidence. \n\nStatistical science is the foundation for evidence-based decision making.  As an interdisciplinary science\, it has applications to every field imaginable\, making statisticians uniquely qualified to lend their expertise in multiple policy domains.  Effectively informing policy requires becoming involved early in the design phase\; understanding the nature of the issue\; and knowing how to communicate\, educate\, and explain.  In this talk\, I will provide multiple examples from health policy to highlight both valuable contributions made by statistical scientists and lessons learned – and how this model of collaboration is relevant across other fields and application areas.  I will suggest areas of improvement based on lessons learned. And extrapolating from these successes\, I will suggest areas for future contributions in which the stakes are very high and involving statistics will be essential. \n\nMadhumita (Bonnie) Ghosh-Dastidar is head of the Statistics Group and a senior statistician and data scientist at RAND\, a nonprofit organization that improves policy and decision making through research and analysis. Her policy applications are focused on health and social justice.  Specific examples include evaluation of neighborhood-level intervention to improve diet\, health\; cluster randomized trials to improve outcomes among HIV positive persons\; and measurement or surveillance in health disparity. Her statistical expertise includes design\, sampling\, measurement\, missing data\, evaluations\, and longitudinal/multilevel modeling. Ghosh-Dastidar's major studies include assessment of sexual assault and harassment in the U.S. military and the first Singapore mental health study to assess national prevalence. She is the 2024 President of the American Statistical Association (ASA)\, the largest professional organization for statisticians and data scientists.  She is an elected fellow of the ASA. The ASA Committee on Women in Statistics recognized her work in statistics and data science by naming her \"Top 20 Woman in Statistics and Data Science\" (March 2019. Ghosh-Dastidar received her Ph.D. and M.A. in statistics from Penn State\, University Park\, PA\; she also holds a dual Bachelor's in mathematics and computer science from Albright College\, Reading\, PA.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Department Colloquium | A Nuclear Clock
DESCRIPTION:Lasers and quantum science have fueled revolutionary developments in atomic\, molecular\, and fundamental physics. Scaling up quantum systems to ever increasing sizes promises to open new discovery opportunities. Quantum technology has brought tens of thousands of atoms to minute-long coherence times for atomic clocks\, and it is now also knocking on the door of nuclear physics. The combination of ultrafast optics and precision metrology has built us new tools such as a vacuum ultraviolet frequency comb\, enabling the recent breakthrough of quantum-state-resolved laser spectroscopy of thorium-229 nuclear transition. This unification of precision metrology and nuclear physics sparks new ideas for testing fundamental physics and promises nuclear-based clock with billions of nuclear absorbers.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Trans Technologies Book Launch Event
DESCRIPTION:March 12\, 3:00 p.m. - 4:30 p.m.\nNorth Quad Space 2435 and online\n\nA conversation with UMSI Assistant Professor of Information Oliver L. Haimson\, author of Trans Technologies (MIT Press)\, hosted by UMSI Professor Kishonna Gray\, on how technology creates new possibilities for transgender people\, and how trans experiences\, in turn\, create new possibilities for technology.\n\nBook signing and reception to follow.  \n\nFree book copies for the first 50 in-person attendees.\n\nRSVP for in-person attendance (see related links).\n\nRegister to attend online (see related links).\n\nBook description:\nMainstream technologies often exclude or marginalize transgender users. Trans Technologies describes what happens when trans people take technology design into their own hands. Oliver L. Haimson\, whose research into gender transition and technology has defined this area of study\, draws on transgender studies and his own in-depth interviews with more than 100 creators of technology—including apps\, games\, health resources\, extended reality systems\, and supplies designed to address challenges trans people face—to explain what trans technology is and to explore its present possibilities and limitations\, as well as its future prospects.\n\nHaimson surveys the landscape of trans technologies to reveal the design processes that brought these technologies to life\, and to show how trans people often must rely on community\, technology\, and the combination of the two to meet their basic needs and challenges. His work not only identifies the role of trans technology in caring for individuals within the trans community but also shows how trans technology creation empowers some trans people to create their own tools for navigating the world. Articulating which trans needs and challenges are currently being addressed by technology and which still need to be addressed\; describing how trans technology creators are accomplishing this work\; examining how privilege\, race\, and access to resources impact which trans technologies are built and who may be left out\; and highlighting new areas of innovation to be explored\, Trans Technologies opens the way to meaningful social change.\n\nAuthor bio:\nDr. Oliver Haimson is an assistant professor at University of Michigan School of Information and author of Trans Technologies (MIT Press\, 2025). He is a recipient of a National Science Foundation CAREER award. Haimson conducts social computing research focused on envisioning and designing trans technologies. \n\nEvent sponsors:\nThis event is sponsored by the University of Michigan School of Information (UMSI)\, Digital Studies Institute (DSI)\, Institute for Research on Women & Gender (IRWG)\, Center for Ethics\, Society\, and Computing (ESC) and Spectrum Center.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:MIPSE Seminar | Synergies in Inertial Fusion Energy and Inertial Confinement Fusion Research
DESCRIPTION:Abstract:\nInertial confinement fusion research has been anchored in the Stockpile Stewardship program for decades. National laboratories and universities have partnered to drive fusion research at the National Ignition Facility through a highly complex National Diagnostics roadmap. Los Alamos National Laboratory has played a crucial role through unique expertise in nuclear diagnostics (neutron and gamma imaging\, gamma reaction history measurements\, radio-chemical analyses). These diagnostics have taken tremendous development effort and expertise\, providing crucial information on fusion implosions (implosion asymmetries\, bang time\, contaminant mix). Now\, since the achievement of ignition and energy gain on the NIF\, the US fusion landscape is changing – private companies are emerging with the goal of realizing fusion energy. The DOE Fusion Energy Science program is encouraging private-public partnership to advance fusion energy for the US. While a fusion power plant will likely need a minimal suite of diagnostics\, diagnostics will be needed on the path to a pilot plant and diagnostic expertise will be needed to develop a minimally viable set for a plant. This talk explores how the long history of diagnostic expertise at LANL can enable fusion energy research while simultaneously benefitting from a drive for innovation and an energized workforce.\n\nAbout the Speaker: \nVerena Geppert-Kleinrath is Deputy Group Leader of the P-1 Dynamic Imaging and Radiography group in Los Alamos National Laboratory’s Physics Division\, managing over 60 scientists\, engineers\, postdocs\, students\, technologists and technicians. She also pursues nuclear imaging for inertial confinement fusion (ICF) and is excited about the prospect of fusion energy.  She and her team have developed 3D neutron and gamma imaging for the National Ignition Facility (NIF). Her nuclear imaging diagnostics have delivered key performance metrics for high-yield ICF implosions on NIF – ultimately leading to the first successful ignition shots.  She has authored over 60 publications in with over 2500 citations. For her successes in ICF diagnostics she has received the Department of Energy Secretary’s Honors Award three times and the American Physical Society’s John Dawson Award for Excellence in Plasma Physics Research. She serves as the vice-chair for the American Physical Society 4 Corners Section. She has been at LANL since 2012 when she started as a graduate student. Verena holds a PhD in Nuclear Physics from Vienna University of Technology and originally hails from Austria.\n\nThe seminar will be conducted in person and simulcast via Zoom: https://mipse.umich.edu/seminars_2425.php#winter2025

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Algebraic Geometry Seminar: Hodge symmetries of singular varieties
DESCRIPTION:The Hodge diamond of a smooth projective complex variety exhibits fundamental symmetries\, arising from Poincaré duality and the purity of Hodge structures. In the case of a singular projective variety\, the complexity of the singularities is closely related to the symmetries of the analogous Hodge–Du Bois diamond. For example\, the failure of the first nontrivial Poincaré duality is reflected in the defect of factoriality. Based on joint work with Mihnea Popa\, I will discuss how local and global conditions on singularities influence the topology of algebraic varieties.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:DCMB / CCMB Weekly Seminar featuring Peter Park\, PhD (of Harvard Medical School\, Blavatnik Institute Biomedical Informatics)
DESCRIPTION:Abstract:  Different mutational processes operative in cancer and other diseases leave distinct 'signatures' on the DNA. Mutational signature analysis is an attempt to deconvolve the mutational patterns from DNA sequencing data to identify the underlying mutagenic processes. I will describe the methodological advances we have made in recent years as well as their applications to the detection of patients with homologous recombination deficiency (HRD)\, who may be considered for PARP inhibitor therapy. In last part\, I will share a few insights I have gained about research productivity.\n\nShort Bio:\nDr. Park is a Professor of Biomedical Informatics at Harvard Medical School and the director of its Bioinformatics and Integrative Genomics PhD program. His research group specializes in computational and statistical analysis of large-scale DNA sequencing data to understand genetic and epigenetic mechanisms related to disease processes. Originally trained in applied mathematics (B.A.\, Harvard\; Ph.D.\, Caltech)\, he was introduced to molecular biology and genetics during his postdoctoral studies in biostatistics. His laboratory has developed several algorithms for genome analysis\, especially for identification of structural alterations from whole-genome sequencing data\, and has made substantial contributions to consortium projects such as The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA)\, Encyclopedia of DNA Elements (ENCODE)\, and Brain Somatic Mosaicism Network\, and 4D Nucleome (4DN).

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Probability and Analysis Seminar: A glimpse of universality in critical planar lattice models
DESCRIPTION:Many models of statistical mechanics are defined on a lattice\, yet they describe behaviour of objects in our seemingly isotropic world. It is then natural to ask why\, in the small mesh size limit\, the directions of the lattice disappear. Physicists' answer to this question is partially given by the Universality hypothesis\, which roughly speaking states that critical properties of a physical system do not depend on the lattice or fine properties of short-range interactions but only depend on the spatial dimension and the symmetry of the possible spins. Justifying the reasoning behind the universality hypothesis mathematically seems virtually impossible and so other ideas are needed for a rigorous derivation of universality even in the simplest of setups. \nIn this talk I will explain some ideas behind the recent result which proves rotational invariance of the FK-percolation model. In doing so\, we will see how rotational invariance is related to universality among a certain one-dimensional family of planar lattices and how the latter can be proved using exact integrability of the six-vertex model using Bethe ansatz. \nBased on joint works with Hugo Duminil-Copin\, Karol Kozlowski\, Ioan Manolescu\, Mendes Oulamara\, and Tatiana Tikhonovskaia.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Professors Kelly Askew\, Derek R. Peterson\, and Thad A. Polk\, Collegiate Professorship Inaugural Lecture
DESCRIPTION:This event will take place both in person and virtually.\n\nProfessor Kelly Askew\, the Niara Sudarkasa Collegiate Professor of Anthropology and Afroamerican & African Studies\n\nLecture Title: Art in Adversity: Swahili Poetry\, Philosophy & Political Action\n\nLecture Abstract: Poetry pervades the histories and politics of the East African countries of Tanzania and Kenya. Alternatively sung\, read in newspapers\, painted on buses\, rapped at festivals\, and more\, poetry is a longstanding mode of political action. Through a potent combination of verbal artistry\, social embeddedness and philosophical discourse\, Swahili poets articulate that which is and that which should be. Engaging the work and words of ordinary and renowned poet-philosophers from both countries\, we’ll explore the mirror-effects\, X-ray-effects and hammer-effects of their art. \n\nProfessor Derek R. Peterson\, the Ali Mazrui Collegiate Professor of History and African Studies\n\nLecture Title: A Popular History of Idi Amin’s Uganda\n\nLecture Abstract: Idi Amin\, who ruled Uganda between 1971 and 1979\, is one of the 20th century’s most menacing monsters. This lecture will bring the political logic of his government into view. The singular accomplishment of the Amin regime was this:  to transform the boring\, technical work of administration into a thrilling battle for liberation. Amin’s regime invited ordinary Ugandans to see themselves as front-line soldiers in a war against cultural and racial outsiders.  In the study of Idi Amin’s regime we gain insights into the infrastructure of popular demagoguery in our own time and place. \n\nProfessor Thad A. Polk\, the Samuel D. Epstein Collegiate Professor of Psychology\n\nLecture Title: The Aging Brain: Age-related Changes in Neurochemistry\, Neural Activity\, and Behavior\n\nLecture Abstract: As we age\, we sometimes become a little more forgetful and take a little longer to process information. But why? My lab has been investigating that question by recruiting a large sample of older and younger adults\, testing their perceptual\, motor\, and cognitive abilities\, and using MRI to scan their brains. In this talk\, I’ll present studies that have identified specific changes in both neurochemistry and in neural activity that accompany aging\, and that might contribute to age-related behavioral deficits.\n\nIf you are unable to join us in person\, please click the link below to join the webinar:\nJoin from PC\, Mac\, iPad\, or Android:\nhttps://umich.zoom.us/j/95617163605\n\nPhone one-tap:\n+16469313860\,\,95617163605# US\n+13017158592\,\,95617163605# US (Washington DC)\n\nJoin via audio:\n+1 646 931 3860 US\n+1 301 715 8592 US (Washington DC)\n+1 305 224 1968 US\n+1 309 205 3325 US\n+1 312 626 6799 US (Chicago)\n+1 646 876 9923 US (New York)\n+1 386 347 5053 US\n+1 507 473 4847 US\n+1 564 217 2000 US\n+1 669 444 9171 US\n+1 669 900 6833 US (San Jose)\n+1 689 278 1000 US\n+1 719 359 4580 US\n+1 253 205 0468 US\n+1 253 215 8782 US (Tacoma)\n+1 346 248 7799 US (Houston)\n+1 360 209 5623 US\n+1 587 328 1099 Canada\n+1 647 374 4685 Canada\n+1 647 558 0588 Canada\n+1 778 907 2071 Canada\n+1 780 666 0144 Canada\n+1 204 272 7920 Canada\n+1 438 809 7799 Canada\nWebinar ID: 956 1716 3605\nInternational numbers available: https://umich.zoom.us/u/abkGdCwN99

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Student AIM Seminar: Parallelizing Neural Quantum States for Chemistry Applications
DESCRIPTION:Neural networks have recently emerged as a powerful tool in quantum chemistry\, particularly for computing the ground state energy of large molecules. This approach\, known as neural quantum states\, represents the wave function of a molecular Hamiltonian using modern machine learning architectures. Optimized for GPU hardware\, these methods aim to compete with and surpass traditional techniques. In this talk\, I will introduce the mathematical foundations of neural quantum states and discuss our work in scaling these algorithms to thousands of GPU nodes on high-performance computing (HPC) systems\, enabling simulations of unprecedented size and complexity.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Uniform-in-time weak propagation of chaos for consensus-based optimization
DESCRIPTION:We study the uniform-in-time weak propagation of chaos for the consensus-based optimization (CBO) method on a bounded searching domain. We apply the methodology for studying long-time behaviors of interacting particle systems developed in the work of Delarue and Tse (arXiv:2104.14973). Our work shows that the weak error has order O(N−1) uniformly in time\, where N denotes the number of particles. The main strategy behind the proofs are the decomposition of the weak errors using the linearized Fokker-Planck equations and the exponential decay of their Sobolev norms. Consequently\, our result leads to the joint convergence of the empirical distribution of the CBO particle system to the Dirac-delta distribution at the global minimizer in population size and running time in Wasserstein-type metrics.\n\nJoint work Erhan Bayraktar and Ibrahim Ekren.

SUMMARY:Performance:Lunasa
DESCRIPTION:“An Irish music dream team” –Folk Roots\n\nNamed for an ancient Celtic harvest festival in honor of the Irish god Lugh\, Lúnasa was formed in 1997 from members of some of the greatest Irish groups of the previous decade\, an early review from Folk Roots magazine describing the band as an “Irish music dream team.” From the start\, the band’s complex arrangements and unique sound reshaped the boundaries of traditional music and energized audiences the world over. Critical acclaim followed\, The Irish Echo describing the band as the “the hottest Irish acoustic band on the planet”\; MOJO magazine named the band \"the new gods of Irish music\,” adding that “nobody since the Bothies has wielded such a thrilling rhythmic underlay.” Billboard raved that “anybody who listens can’t help but find them contagious.” \n\nHaving since sold over a quarter of a million records and performed over 2\,500 shows across 36 countries\, Lunasa has won multiple awards and become one of the most influential bands in the history of traditional music.  Collaborations with singers Natalie Merchant\, Mary-Chapin Carpenter\, and Tim O’Brien and high-profile concerts at The Hollywood Bowl\, New York’s Carnegie Hall\, Glastonbury Festival and Bercy Arena Paris helped broaden the band’s audience and cement it place at the forefront of contemporary Irish music.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:A Prison\, a Prisoner\, and a Prison Guard
DESCRIPTION:Join us for a multimedia exploration of the impact of prisons on countries and communities across the Middle East and North Africa (MENA) region through the lens of “prison art.” The exhibit delves into the dynamic interplay between incarceration and creative expression to make sense of carceral systems.\n\nBy presenting prison art from various countries in the MENA region\, including Algeria\, Egypt\, Iran\, Iraq\, Lebanon\, Palestine\, Sudan\, Syria\, and Yemen\, this exhibit unfolds as a “journey” into the prison system and demonstrates the ways in which art can be a tool of expression and reconciliation for survivors\, detainees’ families\, and society at large. It promotes drawing parallels between the prison experience in the region and worldwide\, highlights the intentionality of carceral systems\, and expands the conversation to include prison-impacted communities. Viewers are invited to navigate the cross-generational\, human experiences of imprisonment often obscured behind prison walls and within individuals.\n\nCurated by Sumaya Tabbah and Susan Aboeid of The Ḥafathah Collective\, this traveling exhibit was organized by U-M Students Organize for Syria (SOS) in partnership with U-M Library and with support from the U-M Arts Initiative.\n\nPlan to attend the related discussion\, \"Art\, Justice\, and Carcerality: The Role of Creative Expression in the Pursuit of Justice\,\" on February 6.

DESCRIPTION:The exhibit \"Being Mixed Race in a Mono-racially Organized World: Interracial Identity in the U.S. and Around the World — What Research and Mixed Race People Tell Us\" is an exploration into the library's collections about the diversity of mixed race heritage. Through research\, narratives\, demographic data\, and a variety of visual and published materials\, explore multifaceted aspects of mixed race heritage with insights from many perspectives.\n\nThe 2020 U.S. Census illuminated a 276 percent increase in individuals who identify as \"two or more races\" since 2010. In recognition of the growing numbers of mixed race-identifying people at the University of Michigan\, throughout the country\, and across the globe\, we're excited to unveil this new exhibit — a unique exploration of changing demographics and intersectional identities.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:CREES Exhibition. Threading the Needle: Vestiges of Colonialism and Femininity\, an installation by Gluklya
DESCRIPTION:Gluklya’s work is a powerful example of socially engaged art at the intersections of gender\, class\, and cultural identity. By focusing on experiences of female textile workers in Kyrgyzstan\, the artist explores the often-overlooked stories of women affected by Soviet and post-Soviet colonialism. \"Threading the Needle: Vestiges of Colonialism and Femininity\" retells their stories using a diverse range of media — film\, sculpture\, watercolors\, and felt tapestries. Unfolding the implications of economic and societal pressures on women\, Gluklya explores issues of poverty\, isolation\, and exploitation among the garment workers.\n   \n   Personal stories are woven into a broader social context — such as the legacy of the \"Likbez\" (liquidation of illiteracy) campaign among women in Central Asia during Soviet rule and entrenched patriarchal traditions\, like \"Ala Kachuu\" (bride-kidnapping). This dynamic — where colonization and modernization intertwine the individual lives they touch — raises questions about cultural identity and the ethical borders of decolonized research.\n\nThis exhibition was curated by CREES alumna Dianne Beal (BA REES '79). See more of her work here: https://www.diannebeal.com/curatorial.\n   \nIf there is anything we can do to make this event accessible to you\, please contact us at crees@umich.edu. Please be aware that advance notice is necessary as some accommodations may require more time for the university to arrange.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:WCEE Exhibition. Threads of Tradition: The Art of Ukrainian Vyshyvanka
DESCRIPTION:The act of embroidering and weaving designs onto cloth is deeply rooted in Ukrainian traditions. Embellished clothing (sorochky)\, ritual cloths (rushnyky)\, and household textiles accompany a person from birth until death\, punctuating important life events in between. A variety of embroidery patterns are used throughout Ukraine\; some stitches are universally known\, while others are region-specific.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Andy Ross Exhibition
DESCRIPTION:The pieces here are from a large series of works made over the last several years. In them\, Ross explores humor and personal meaning through absurd juxtapositions of pairs of wildly varied images. Each single image is stripped of its original context (be it\, for example\, a history book\, an instruction manual\, or a magazine advertisement)\, placed on a white background like some kind of specimen\, and presented afresh with a new “companion image.” These companion images confront\, contrast and converse with each other\, and thereby build new relationships\, narratives\, jokes\, and contexts.\n\nAndy Ross grew up in Macomb County\, and has been making art in various mediums since the 1970s. He received a BFA degree from College for Creative Studies\, and an MFA degree from University of Michigan. He has taught photography\, art\, and web design at colleges in California and Michigan. His photographs and collages have been exhibited in schools\, galleries\, and museums across the United States.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Breaking with Tradition
DESCRIPTION:Artist John Rizzo is exhibiting individual mixed-media sculptures that bridge across art\, design\, and craft. Using a combination of materials that are historically perceived as precious John's work distorts\, disrupts\, and re-contextualizes perceptions of materials and their values. His work is at once \, colorful \, playful \, layered and deeply self-reflective in its personal narrative.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Elizabeth Boyd-Hartmann Dizik Exhibition
DESCRIPTION:This body of work represents a playful exploration of form\, color\, and scale through the lens of cellular shapes. Inspired by the complex patterns of biological life\, the pieces are a celebration of growth\, transformation\, and the joy of experimentation. The use of non-precious materials\, such as wood balls and paint\, allowed for a liberating approach to composition and color\, while the spherical forms and circular panels evoke the look of petri dishes—symbolizing both scientific curiosity and organic development.\nBorn in Detroit\, Elizabeth is a multidisciplinary artist and mother based in the metro Detroit area\, where she works from a studio in her home. With a background in bench jewelry\, her earlier work focused on studio jewelry and was represented by Galerie Noel Guyomarc’h in Montreal.\nElizabeth’s work has been exhibited both locally and internationally. She holds a BA in Jewelry Design\, with First Class Honours\, from Central Saint Martins in London\, a BFA from the University of Michigan\, and an MFA from Cranbrook Academy of Art\, where she specialized in Metalsmithing and Architecture. Her diverse practice spans jewelry\, sculpture\, and installation\, blending materials and techniques to explore themes of production\, growth\, transformation\, and organic form.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Redefining the Crown
DESCRIPTION:In Winter 2025\, the Lane Hall exhibit space will feature a portraiture series titled Redefining the Crown showcasing the powerful stories of six Black breast cancer survivors.\n\nBased on a photo essay by U-M Faculty Versha Pleasant (MD/MPH) and Ava Purkiss (PhD) in Medicine at Michigan\, this exhibition examines the cultural and personal significance of hair within Black communities\, particularly through the lens of breast cancer treatment and recovery. The term \"crown\" is deeply symbolic in Black culture\, signifying beauty\, strength\, and identity. The featured photo essay by photographer Tafari Stevenson-Howard captures the intimate journeys of Ann Chatman\, Tanisha Kennedy\, Felecia McDaniel\, Shantell Elaine McCoy\, Tamara Lynn Myles\, and Veleria Banks.\n\nThrough their narratives and portraits\, the exhibit examines how these women have navigated the profound impact of hair loss caused by chemotherapy\, inviting the audience to witness their stories with radical empathy. It explores the cultural pride and personal identity intricately tied to their hair\, and how these elements are redefined amidst their battles with breast cancer.\n\nThe exhibit will be on view from January 21\, 2025 to August 8\, 2025. This exhibition is presented with support from IRWG\, the Department of Women's and Gender Studies\, and Michigan Medicine. \n\nLocated on the first floor of Lane Hall (204 S. State Street)\, the Exhibit Space is free and open to the public\, M-F\, 9am-4pm.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:The Bibliophile and the Library: Private-Press Books from the Collection of Bill Heidrich
DESCRIPTION:View beautifully illustrated books that stand as remarkable testaments to the work of twentieth-century small private presses\, which\, in contrast to the trend of mass commercialization\, produced limited editions that celebrated the uniqueness of manual craftsmanship. Features such as exquisite typeface design\, letterpress printing\, handmade paper\, traditional illustration techniques like woodcut and engraving\, and the inclusion of original art by renowned artists highlight the presses' dedication to artistry and detail.\n\nThe display opens with an edition of \"The Works of Geoffrey Chaucer\,\" published in 1896 by William Morris at his Kelmscott Press\, a pivotal press that greatly influenced the development of the private press movement as a means of preserving and revitalizing the fine printing and art traditions of the past. Additionally\, the exhibit includes some examples of artist’s proofs\, offering a glimpse into the intricate creative process behind these exceptional works.\n\nThese books are on loan from the collection of Bill Heidrich\, a long-time supporter of the University of Michigan Library.

SUMMARY:Other:Leaves Under the Lens
DESCRIPTION:The leaf surface is a dynamic landscape where tiny\, specialized structures help plants interact with the world around them. Let’s bring this world into view! Join us for an exhibit that highlights the complex and often beautiful anatomy of leaves from the Matthaei collection. Plants throughout the conservatory will be paired with microscope photographs and micro-CT scans that illustrate the otherwise invisible structures that protect leaves from chewing insects\, absorb (or repel!) water\, and even recruit “bodyguards”. You won’t look at leaves the same way again! \n\nThis project is a collaboration between MBGNA and the Weber and Vasconcelos labs in the Department of Ecology and Evolutionary Biology\, led by PhD student Rosemary Glos.

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

SUMMARY:Careers / Jobs:Data & Research Methods Project: Office Hours
DESCRIPTION:All students are invited to join this free and open data science research project which can be used to supplement your digital research portfolio! On Thursday\, March 13th\, we will meet for our next open Office Hours session to troubleshoot participant projects. Register and learn more: https://nebigdatahub.org/drm-project/ The Data &amp\; Research Methods project is perfect for beginners who have never worked with a dataset before. This project will also be helpful for advanced data science students who have little experience working with data cleaning or survey building\, desk research\, or data visualizations. The focus of this project is the research process as a whole.It is the first day of your new job as the Junior Data Scientist for the Office of the Mayor in the fictional town of Data Lake\, West Dakota. The population of Data Lake (314\,159) has grown rapidly since 2020 as a number of remote workers have relocated to the mid-size city. Mayor “Tess Ellation” hastasked your office with a project – to learn more about the specific needs of the town’s new remote work population. She asks you to review data on remote workers provided by the U.S. Census Bureau and come back to her with at least two data-driven policy recommendations which will support these new Data Lake families (for example\, a policy recommendationmight be: build new coworking spaces downtown). Your policy recommendations must be informed by data analysis or Mayor Ellation will not adopt them. Participants will clean a dataset\, learn about the ethics of data science research\, do some preliminary analysis\, and develop a workinghypothesis about the impact of remote work policies. You'll build some simple data visualizations\, test your hypotheses\, write up a short conclusion\, and prepare a final report for Mayor Ellation. There are 9 Milestones in this project. There are several Tasks you need to complete within each Milestone. This project should take you no more than 30 hours tofinish. Depending on your skill level\, it may take you less time.In this project\, you will learn using a combination of videos\, articles\, and external data work in spreadsheets. Our team has provided you with several external links and resources which will supplement your learning.Project participants who complete Milestones 1-9 in accordance with these instructions will receive a Certificate of Completion from the NSDC Project Team.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Quantum Research Institute | Quantum gas of molecules
DESCRIPTION:Zoom >>>> https://umich.zoom.us/j/98980765496\nIn-Person Location >>> Michigan Memorial Phoenix Project\, PML2000\n\nAbstract:\nIncreasingly sophisticated quantum state engineering and high-fidelity observation of molecules are providing new opportunities to study complex structure and emergent quantum properties and to set new bounds for fundamental symmetry. In particular\, quantum gases of molecules constitute a new experimental platform for precise control of molecular interactions and collective dynamics. External electric fields are used to tune elastic collision\, suppress reactive loss\, produce sharp interaction resonance\, and control evaporative cooling. Confining molecules in optical traps with tunable spatial geometries allows realization of stereo chemistry and tunable many-body spins for quantum magnetism. Hamiltonian engineering is paving the way for production of entangled molecules that will benefit precision measurement. \n\nBio:\nJun Ye is a Fellow of JILA\, a Fellow of NIST\, and a member of the National Academy of Sciences. His research focuses on the development of new tools for light-matter interactions and their scientific applications for precision measurement\, quantum science\, and frequency metrology. He is known for developing highly precise and accurate atomic clocks\, first realization of quantum gas of polar molecules\, and pioneering work on frequency combs and spectroscopy. He is a highly cited researcher for every year since 2014.  He has received numerous honors include five Gold Medals from the US Department of Commerce\, Breakthrough Prize in Fundamental Physics\, Micius Prize\, Herbert Walther Award\, Vannevar Bush Fellowship\, N.F. Ramsey Prize\, and I.I. Rabi Prize.  The group web page is http://jila.colorado.edu/YeLabs/.

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).

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Commuting Infrastructure in Fragmented Cities
DESCRIPTION:Cities are often divided into local governments\, each responsible for their local commuting infrastructure used by local residents\, workers\, and outsiders. This paper examines how metropolitan fragmentation impacts the provision of commuting infrastructure and the spatial distribution of economic activity. I develop a quantitative spatial model in which municipalities compete for residents and workers by investing in commuting infrastructure to maximize net land value within their jurisdictions. In equilibrium\, relative to a metropolitan planner\, municipalities underinvest in areas near their boundaries and overinvest in areas away from the boundary. Central municipalities tend to underinvest more\, as higher commuting costs encourage households to move closer to where they work\, thereby increasing land values in central areas. Decentralized investment results in higher cross-jurisdiction commuting costs\, more dispersed employment\, and more polycentric patterns of economic activity. I estimate the model using data from Santiago\, Chile\, and find substantial gains from centralizing investment decisions. Centralization allocates infrastructure more efficiently and increases aggregate expenditure on infrastructure.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:The Influence of Professors and Peers on Undergraduate Engineering Students’ Mental Health
DESCRIPTION:Abstract: The mental health of undergraduate engineering students has become a growing concern in recent years\, with increasing research drawing connections between the culture of engineering education and student well-being. Despite initiatives aimed at addressing these issues\, many students face significant mental health challenges that impact their academic performance and overall well-being. This study explores the intersection of mental health and engineering education\, specifically focusing on the role that professors and peers play in influencing the mental health of undergraduate engineering students. This seminar will present on qualitative interview data collected through a single-institution study. Reflexive thematic analysis was used to identify how professors and peers influence undergraduate engineering students’ self-reported mental health.\n\nBiography: Nosakhare Idiaghe is a third-year doctoral candidate of Engineering Education Research at the University of Nebraska-Lincoln\, where he is also pursuing a master’s in engineering management. His research focuses on bridging the gap between academic training and workplace expectations\, exploring how students’ educational experiences shape their transition and experiences in professional engineering roles. His work spans multiple areas\, including engineering students’ well-being\, undergraduate research experiences\, and the intercultural competence development of graduate students. Before moving to the United States\, he earned a master’s degree in industrial engineering and a bachelor’s degree in petroleum engineering from the University of Benin in Nigeria. Beyond research\, Nosa is deeply committed to leadership and service. He currently serves as the President of the National Society of Black Engineers (NSBE) at UNL\, Vice President of the International Students Fellowship\, and Co-Chair of the Quality-of-Life Committee for the Graduate Student Assembly.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:More than Gray: Reimagining Early America in Full Color
DESCRIPTION:The American past was lived in full color\, but this vibrant history can be easily missed in surviving evidence. You can’t deny that there’s something about a black-and-white photograph that feels… stuffy. With portraits showing people with their shirts buttoned right to the neck and everything in shades of gray and brown\, our imaginations can incline to thinking of the past as a bit staid\, if not downright dull. But look a little closer\, and you’ll see signs that the fashion choices available to those who came before us were more colorful than you might first think. From the fabrics they wore\, to the games they played\, or the books they read\, their world was alive with bright hues. This exhibit invites you to reimagine history with a fuller color palette and picture the vibrancy and joy that just might be hidden behind the unsmiling photographs.\n\nExhibition opening weekdays from 12-4.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:The intersection of the social\, natural\, and built environments
DESCRIPTION:Environmental influences on many facets of our lives are profound. Recent research on this topic has shed light on the unique impact of diverse environmental types (e.g.\, social\, natural\, and built environments) that we encounter on a daily basis. Less understood are the implications of multiple intersecting environments as well as the potential of these occurrences to address pressing societal challenges. This presentation will review my recent work funded by NIH\, NSF\, and the Erb Family Foundation focused on the intersection of multiple environmental contexts. This includes research on social networks in lower income senior housing communities and projects examining links between social engagement and green infrastructure (e.g.\, rain gardens) designed to address urban flooding.

SUMMARY:Presentation:Dissertation Defense: Log-Determinant of the Laguerre Beta Ensembles and Free Energy of the Bipartite Spherical Sherrington–Kirkpatrick Model
DESCRIPTION:Abstract:\n\nThis thesis consists of two parts\, each addressing a distinct problem concerning the asymptotic behavior of large disordered systems. The first part studies random matrices from the Laguerre beta ensembles. We prove that when a Laguerre matrix is shifted by a scalar multiple of the identity—where the scalar is near the edge of the Mar\v{c}enko–Pastur law—the logarithm of its determinant exhibits Gaussian fluctuations. Additionally\, we establish that this result extends to the Laguerre Orthogonal and Laguerre Unitary Ensembles under a relaxed assumption on the shift. This edge central limit theorem has applications in statistical testing of critically spiked sample covariance matrices\, and in analyzing free energy fluctuations of bipartite spherical spin glasses at critical temperature. The second part examines the free energy fluctuations of the bipartite spherical Sherrington–Kirkpatrick model\, an extension of the spherical Sherrington–Kirkpatrick model by incorporating heterogeneity. Previous work by Baik and Lee shows that at non-critical temperatures\, the free energy exhibits Gaussian fluctuations at high temperatures and Tracy–Widom fluctuations at low temperatures. We focus on the critical temperature case and demonstrate that within a vanishing window around criticality\, the fluctuations are given by the sum of independent Gaussian and Tracy–Widom random variables. A key component of our analysis is the central limit theorem for Laguerre matrices established in the first part of the thesis.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Special Interdisciplinary QC-CM Seminar | Quantum active solids: Photoinduced non-reciprocal magnetism
DESCRIPTION:Out of equilibrium\, the action-reaction symmetry of the interactions is often broken\, leading to the emergence of various collective phenomena with no equilibrium counterparts. Although ubiquitous in classical active systems\, implementing such non-reciprocal interactions in solid-state systems has remained challenging\, as the known quantum schemes require precise control over the system on a single-site level. Here\, we propose a novel dissipation-engineering protocol to induce non-reciprocal interactions in solid-state platforms with light\, which we expect to be achievable with state-of the-art experimental techniques. Focusing on magnetic metals for concreteness\, we show microscopically that a light injection that introduces the decay channel to a virtually excited state gives rise to non-reciprocal interactions between localized spins. One can even realize a situation where spin A tries to align with spin B but the B tries the opposite\, resulting in chase-and-runaway dynamics. Applying our scheme to layered ferromagnets\, we show that a non-reciprocal phase transition from a static to a many-body time-dependent chiral phase emerges. Our work paves the way to bring solid-state systems to the realm of non-reciprocal science\, providing yet another possibility to control quantum matter with light.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:IOE 899 Seminar: John Urschel\, MIT
DESCRIPTION:Join us on March 13 as our guest\, John Urschel\, gives his talk titled \"Numerical Stability in Gaussian Elimination.\"\n\nAbstract: The solution of a linear system\, i.e.\, given a matrix A and vector b\, finding a vector x satisfying Ax = b\, is one of the oldest problems in mathematics. Gaussian elimination is one of the most fundamental and well-known techniques for solving linear systems\, by factoring a matrix into the product of a lower and upper triangular matrix. Surprisingly\, a number of questions regarding the numerical stability of this algorithm remains. In this talk\, we will study the history of this subject\, a story that spans over seventy-five years\, and discuss some recent progress.\n\nBio: John Urschel is an Assistant Professor of Mathematics at MIT\, and a Junior Fellow at the Harvard Society of Fellows. Previously\, he was a member of the Institute for Advanced Study. He received his Ph.D. in Mathematics from MIT in 2021 under the supervision of Michel Goemans. His main research interests include matrix analysis\, numerical linear algebra\, and spectral graph theory. He recently received the SIAM DiPrima Prize for the most outstanding thesis in applied mathematics\, and the SIAM Early Career Prize in Linear Algebra.\n\nThis event is part of our 899 seminar series.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Responding to Offensive Jokes and Microaggressions
DESCRIPTION:Microaggressions are statements\, actions\, or incidents that involve indirect\, subtle\, intentional or unintentional discrimination against members of a minoritized group (racial\, ethnic or religious minorities\, LGBTQ folks\, older people\, people with disabilities\, etc.).  Many studies have found that microaggressions have a significant negative impact on people’s mental and physical health over time and result in a sense of not belonging on campus (this is one of the chief reasons students fail to complete their academic journeys).  In this introductory workshop\, you’ll get a chance to learn several strategies for responding to microaggressions (including offensive jokes). This workshop will be facilitated by nationally-recognized dialogue facilitator\, Libby Roderick\, Director of Difficult Dialogues from the University of Alaska\, and member of DDNRC.\n\n- Audience: U-M only (students\, faculty and staff)\n- Level: Introductory\n- Facilitator(s): Libby Roderick\n\nABOUT DIFFICULT DIALOGUES\nDifficult Dialogues Meet the Moment Initiative is made possible though partnership between LSA Undergraduate Education\; Division of Student Life\; U-M Year of Democracy\, Civic Empowerment\, and Global Engagement\; Stephen M.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Biomedical Engineering Seminar Series
DESCRIPTION:Abstract:\nCurrent cancer research is impeded by the limitations of traditional experimental systems\, which often do not align with human clinical findings. To address this\, our focus is on developing models that elucidate the mechanisms initiating and driving carcinogenesis\, initially concentrating on lung carcinoma. My laboratory has developed lung cell culture models using directed differentiation of human pluripotent stem cells (hPSCs). These models have helped uncover how specific genetic alterations promote carcinogenesis in specialized human cell lineages and identified potential factors contributing to lung cell malignancy. Another significant aspect of our research investigates the impact of microbiomes on cancer development\, particularly the understudied role of fungal communities (mycobiomes). We have crafted a novel 3D organotypic lung model (iLung) from differentiated hPSCs that more accurately mimics real-life fungal exposure through the use of live fungal spores. Employing advanced technologies such as mutational signature identification\, single-cell transcriptomics\, and quantum mechanics calculations\, we have demonstrated that mycobiomes can drive cancer development through specific mycotoxin-induced mutations.\nZoom: https://umich.zoom.us/j/94337625486

DESCRIPTION:Join us as we present the annual Spencer Lecturer Award to Dr. Stamatios M. (Tom) Krimigis. The Spencer Lecture will be held from 3:30-4:30pm\, Thursday\, March 13\, 2025 in the CSRB Auditorium\, with a reception to follow in the new Leinweber Innovation Laboratory on the first floor.\n\n\"In Search for the Exit from the Heliosphere: The Odyssey of Voyagers 1 & 2\, 1977-2025\"\nThe two Voyager spacecraft are\, arguably\, the most important space science missions of the last century. Designed for a 4-year mission to Jupiter and Saturn\, they not only explored all four giant planets but also proceeded to cross the boundary between the Heliosphere and the local interstellar medium. Now on their 48th. year in space\, they continue to explore uncharted waters as their mission is winding down due to diminished power from the Radioisotope Thermoelectric Generator power source. The speaker has been principal investigator for the Low Energy Charger Particle (LECP) instrument since the program’s inception in 1972\, and will narrate the journey and discoveries of this remarkable mission through the solar system and beyond.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Differential Equations Seminar: Strong solutions to the inhomogeneous kinetic wave equation
DESCRIPTION:We will talk about global dispersive solutions to the space inhomogeneous kinetic wave equation (KWE) which propagate $L^1_{xv}$ -- moments and conserve mass\, momentum and energy. We prove that they scatter\, and that the wave operators mapping the initial data to the scattering states are 1-1\, onto and continuous in a suitable topology.\n\nThis is the first global existence result for strong solutions for KWE. This contrasts with prior global existence results for mild solutions\, which satisfy a transported version of the equation but do not solve the equation itself. \n\nOur proof is carried out entirely in physical space and combines dispersive estimates for the free transport with new trilinear bounds for the gain and loss operators of the KWE on weighted Lebesgue spaces. The main difficulty is the fast growth of the hard-sphere kernel. Our fundamental tool to handle it is a novel collisional averaging estimate.\n\nWe also show that the nonlinear evolution preserves positivity forward in time. For this\, we use the Kaniel-Shinbrot iteration scheme\, properly initialized to ensure successive approximations are dispersive.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Duality of interphases in batteries and catalysts revealed by cryo-EM
DESCRIPTION:Cryogenic electron microscopy (cryo-EM) won the Chemistry Nobel Prize in 2017 for its ability to elucidate the molecular-scale structure of important biomolecules (e.g.\, the spike protein of COVID-19)\, which has had a transformative impact on structural biology and medicine. The Li group at UCLA is leading efforts to leverage this powerful technique to have a similar impact in the field of materials science and renewable energy. These efforts have led to significant breakthroughs in our understanding of batteries (Science 358\, 506\, 2017\; Science 375\, 66\, 2022) and electrocatalysts (Nature Energy 8\, 138\, 2023)\, which represent important clean energy technologies necessary for mitigating climate change. New insights then inform parallel efforts in materials innovations (Nature 620\, 86\, 2023) that will enable transformative technologies.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:EEB Thursday Seminar Series - The genomic basis of environmental adaptation in house mice
DESCRIPTION:This event is part of our ongoing Thursday Seminar Series.\n\nConnecting genotype with phenotype for complex\, adaptive traits is a central goal of evolutionary biology.  House mice (Mus musculus domesticus) have recently been introduced into new environments where they have adapted through changes in morphology\, physiology\, and behavior.  We collected wild house mice across North and South America\, from 55° S latitude to 54° N latitude\, and sequenced their genomes.  We also established inbred strains of mice from diverse environments\, allowing us to study traits in a controlled laboratory environment and to conduct crosses between strains differing in traits of interest.  House mice in the Americas conform to Bergmann’s rule (larger body size farther from the equator) and Allen’s rule (shorter extremities farther from the equator).  These differences are genetically based\, although differences in the length of extremities also show considerable phenotypic plasticity when mice are reared at different temperatures.  Through a combination of genome scans for selection\, studies of gene expression in the wild and in the lab\, association studies in natural populations\, and  genetic crosses in the lab\, we have begun to identify genes and genomic patterns associated with adaptation to new environments.
