SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Department Colloquium | Thermodynamic Limits far from Equilibrium
DESCRIPTION:Thermodynamics is a remarkably successful theoretical framework\, with wide ranging applications across the natural sciences.  Unfortunately\, thermodynamics is limited to equilibrium or near-equilibrium situations\, whereas most of the natural world\, especially life\, operates very far from thermodynamic equilibrium. Without a robust nonequilibrium thermodynamics\, we cannot address a whole host of pressing research questions regarding the energetic requirements to operate outside of equilibrium\, like the energetic cost to form a pattern\, replicate an organism\, or sense an environment\, to name a few.  Research in nonequilibrium statistical thermodynamics is beginning to shed light on these questions.  In this talk\, I will present two such recent predictions.  The first is a novel linear-response-like bound that quantifies how dissipation shapes fluctuations far from equilibrium.  Besides its intrinsic allure as a universal relation\, I will discuss how it can be used to probe the energetic efficiency of molecular motors\, offer energetic constraints on chemical clocks\, and bound the dissipation in complex materials\, both biological and synthetic\, allowing us to gain insight into the fundamental energetic requirements to operate out of thermodynamic equilibrium. The second is an extended second law of thermodynamics with information that quantifies the precise energetic costs to process information\, make a measurement\, and implement feedback.\n

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Minoli Perera\, Northwestern University - “African Ancestry Pharmaco(genomics) Omics.”
DESCRIPTION:In observance of Black History Month\, Precision Health at U-M is pleased to welcome Minoli\nPerera\, PharmD\, PhD\, an Associate Professor of Pharmacology at Northwestern University\, as a\nfeatured speaker in its Seminar Series. On February 13 at 4pm\, Perera will present on “African Ancestry Pharmacogenomics Omics.”\nInitially interested in researching the clinical translation of pharmacogenetic findings\, Perera realized that African Americans are often excluded from these studies. The predictive genomic biomarkers used to guide drug therapy are based on studies of populations of European descent\, so the findings are uninformative for other populations. “Practically\, this means we are using the wrong genetic information in African-Americans to guide their therapy\,” Perera states in a profile on Northwestern’s website. Perera\, who spoke at the Precision Medicine World Conference in Ann Arbor in June\, has been funded by both the National Heart\, Lung\, and Blood Institute and American Heart Association to investigate genetic variants associated with warfarin dose response. She has also received a $7.5 million Research Project Grant (R01) from the National Institute on Minority Health and Health Disparities (NIMHD) to investigate genetic variation in drug-metabolizing enzymes in African Americans. Perera is currently Principal Investigator for one of five Transdisciplinary Collaborative Centers funded through the NIMHD. Dubbed\nACCOuNT (African American pharmacogenomic Cardiovascular\nCONsorTium)\, it will work to accelerate the discovery and translation of pharmacogenomic findings in African-ancestry populations. “The work that we do is scientifically interesting and important\, but it also carries a social justice mission\,” says Perera in her profile. “I hope this work will become an avenue to bring more diversity into academia and science research in general.”

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Precision Health February Seminar
DESCRIPTION:In recognition of Black History Month\, Precision Health at the University of Michigan (U-M) invites you to attend a seminar\, Wednesday\, February 13\, to hear guest presenter Minoli Perera\, PharmD\, PhD\, Associate Professor of Pharmacology at Northwestern University\, speak on \"African Ancestry Omics.\"\n\nThe event\, free and open to the public\, will include a presentation with time allocated for discussion. Registration [https://www.eventbrite.com/e/u-m-precision-health-seminar-february-2019-tickets-54719867597] is requested by Monday\, February 11 (or will close when full).\n\nAbstract:\n\nRacial minorities have been consistently excluded from most genomic studies\, and their data compose only a small fraction of what is publicly available. These studies and data\, however\, are key to the translations and implementation of precision medicine. To address this growing health disparity in precision medicine\, we use not only genomics\, but also other high-complexity datasets (e.g.\, transcriptomics) to discover the genomic predictors of drug responses\, as well as the biological underpinnings that drive genetic associations. Our work finds important associations of African-American–specific SNPs in pharmacogenomics\, and also novel genes that contribute to drug response\, disease\, and adverse events. These types of studies shed light on the unique contributions the African-American genome can make to precision medicine and the critical need for greater diversity in genomic medicine.

SUMMARY:Performance:RESCHEDULED FOR FEB 10 -- The Painted Face: Artistry\, Design and Voice in Chinese Opera
DESCRIPTION:Beijing opera performer\, Li Yang\, who specializes in the jing role\, will bring to the stage a unique presentation of the visual power of face painting along with his skills in vocal performance.  One of the most intriguing figures in Chinese opera is the jing or painted face role—the character type for warriors\, generals\, bandits and gods whose brilliant face makeup reveals each individual’s emotions\, flaws\, and strengths. Join the U-M Lieberthal-Rogel Center for Chinese Studies\, The Confucius Institute\, and the International Institute to experience the full power of the jing role\, by witnessing the effect of this visual spectacle combined with vocal virtuosity.  A special raffle will be held for an audience member to be face painted by the expert. \n \nThe artist’s residency is part of a series of events during the Lunar New Year in February 2019 highlighting contemporary Chinese artists and coincides with the UMMA exhibition Wang Qingsong/Detroit/Beijing (February 2 - May 26\, 2019).\n\nSupported through the Lieberthal-Rogel Center for Chinese Studies\, The Confucius Institute\, and the University of Michigan Museum of Art.\n\nLead support for Wang Qingsong/Detroit/Beijing is provided by the E. Rhodes and Leona B. Carpenter Foundation\, the Confucius Institute at the University of Michigan\, the University of Michigan Lieberthal-Rogel Center for Chinese Studies\, and the Herbert W. and  Susan L.

DESCRIPTION:The 7 p.m. show is sold out but tickets are still available for the 9:30 show\n\nMandolin Orange’s music radiates a mysterious warmth —their songs feel like whispered secrets\, one hand cupped to your ear. Ashleigh Phillips of Independent Weekly wrote that they craft \"simple songs that go beyond chord progressions and vocal harmonies\, leading somehow toward something pure. Using acoustic and electric guitars\, mandolin and a hand-me-down fiddle\, Andrew Marlin and Emily Frantz allure with a heartworn sensibility.\" This North Carolina duo has shared stages with Rosanne Cash\, Chatham County Line\, the Steep Canyon Rangers and Abigail Washburn. Their original songs are drenched in a mastery of classic country\, blues\, and rock\, but they are both personal and contemporary. It takes genius to be simple\, and this young duo has that kind of genius. They come to Michigan with a new release\, \"Tides of a Teardrop\,\" which they call their most personal effort. Always simple and quiet\, the songs of Mandolin Orange are music to treasure.\n\nL.A. psychedellic band Mapache opens.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Sephardi Perspectives on the Medieval Muslim World: Benjamin of Tudela and His \"Book of Travels\"
DESCRIPTION:This talk will offer a fresh look at the best-known Jewish traveler of the Middle Ages: Benjamin ben Jonah from the city of Tudela\, in modern Spain’s northeast. Focusing on selected passages from Benjamin’s twelfth-century Book of Travels\, Jacobs will address the following questions: what does it mean to be a Sephardi Jew during the time of the Crusades? How does a Jewish traveler from medieval Iberia describe the Middle East? What images does he paint of Iraq\, Iran\, and crusader-ruled Jerusalem? Does Benjamin share certain “Western” perceptions of Islam with his Christian contemporaries? How does he portray Jewish-Muslim and Jewish-Christian relations\, respectively? To what extent is his Book of Travels a reliable account of his personal observations on the road\, where does he take poetic license\, and why? Through the lens of Benjamin’s fascinating travel account\, the audience will learn about a pre-modern Jewish world spanning from Iberia to the Middle East and beyond.\n\nIf you have a disability that requires an accommodation\, contact the Judaic Studies office at judaicstudies@umich.edu or 734-763-9047.

DESCRIPTION:Sculptor Herb Babcock creates both monumental and human-scale work using metal\, glass and stone. In the early years of the American Studio Glass Movement (1974-1984) Babcock’s sculptural and painterly expression utilized the vessel format. By layering color — both mass and line — between gathers of clear\, molten glass\, the full compositions are viewed through the vessel as three-dimensional. Babcock is Professor Emeritus\, College for Creative Studies. He was Section Chair of the Glass Department where he taught for 40 years. He lives in Ann Arbor and built a new studio near U-M north campus in 2016.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Gifts of Art presents Impressions in Pastel
DESCRIPTION:Sharon Will’s commitment to painting is to capture the simple\, everyday beauty around her in her native Michigan and beyond. She is passionate about painting plein air (outdoors) whenever possible\, as she feels the direct observation from life is the best teacher to truly see the subtleties of light and color in nature. Working on sanded paper\, her process begins with a pastel and alcohol/mineral spirits under-painting wash to establish value and color. Soft pastel is applied in layers\, often in contrasting color and temperatures for vibrancy. Over her 35-year career in painting\, Will has won numerous national awards. She also operates a custom framing business from her home/studio in Washington Township and teaches occasional workshops.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Gifts of Art presents Mystery Train: Oil on Linen
DESCRIPTION:Gregg Chadwick grew up with the rails of America in his blood. His grandfather Arthur Desch stoked coal in steam engines before becoming a train engineer on the Jersey Central Line. At family gatherings in Chadwick’s grandparent’s home\, his aunts and cousins played music to the rhythms of the trains outside. From Junior Parker\, Elvis Presley\, Bob Dylan and Johnny Cash\, to arts writers and directors Greil Marcus and Jim Jarmusch\, the enduring mythos of America and its legacy has been wrapped up in the blues notes of the song “Mystery Train”. Chadwick’s current series of paintings\, Mystery Train\, is steeped in the powerful echoes of those machine days.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:she was here\, once
DESCRIPTION:The mobility and displacement of the Black body\, from port to holding cell\, to ward and out\, is a history that is embedded in our communities socially\, culturally and geographically. Alluding to feelings of pain\, otherness\, power and triumph\, \"she was here\, once\" features work that illustrates a moment of remembrance and reflection on the women who have roamed these spaces before us.\n\nIn summer 2018\, artist Nastassja Swift organized a collaborative workshop and public performance in her home city of Richmond\, Virginia. Using a range of choreographed movement\, sound\, and solidarity\, eight Black women and girls\, wearing large needle felted wool masks\, traced the ancestral footprints of the arrival of the Black body in Richmond. The 3.5 mile walk began in Shockoe Bottom (the site of the importation of slaves into Richmond\, and one of the largest sources of slave trade in America) and concluded in the Jackson Ward neighborhood (one of the largest Black communities in Richmond).\n\nThe multi-layered piece has produced a short film\, mini documentary\, photography\, and performance masks\, on display in her solo exhibition\, \"she was here\, once\" in Lane Hall.\n\nLane Hall Gallery is open to the public weekdays from 8am - 4pm. Class visits are encouraged.\n\nAccessibility: Ramp and elevator access at the E. Washington Street entrance (by the loading dock). There are accessible restrooms on the south end of Lane Hall\, on each floor of the building. A gender neutral restroom is available on the first floor.\n\nContact Heidi Bennett\, IRWG Event Planner (heidiab@umich.edu) with questions about this exhibition.\n\nCosponsors: Department of Women's Studies\, Stamps School of Art & Design\, Department of English\, Art History\, Eisenberg Institute for Historical Studies\, Center for the Education of Women+

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Written Culture of Christian Egypt: Coptic Manuscripts from the University of Michigan Collection
DESCRIPTION:The dry climate of the Egyptian desert offers an ideal environment for the preservation of ancient artifacts. As the sands of Egypt has preserved also numerous Coptic manuscripts\, the transmission of the literary heritage of Egyptian Christians can be documented quite well from its beginnings in the 4th century CE until its decline in the 12th-13th centuries CE\, when it was completely superseded by Arabic. This exhibit aims to show some of the hallmarks of Coptic literature using manuscripts kept in the Special Collections Research Center of the University of Michigan Library. Topics explored include the main Coptic dialects\; bilingualism in Egypt\; books read by the Egyptian monks\; and the works of Shenoute the Great\, the most important author of Coptic literature.\n\nThis exhibit is curated by Dr. Frank Feder and Dr. Alin Suciu from the Göttingen Academy of Sciences and Humanities. The exhibit and related programming are offered with support from the Department of Middle East Studies and the Kelsey Museum of Archaeology.\n\nJoin us for an opening lecture and reception at 4:30 p.m. on November 12 in the Hatcher Library Gallery.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Exhibition | Ancient Color
DESCRIPTION:The Roman world was a colorful place. Although we often associate the Romans with white marble statues\, these statues — as well as Roman homes\, clothing\, and art — were vibrant with color. This exhibition examines colors in the ancient Roman world\, how these colors were produced\, where they were found\, what the Romans thought about them\, and how we study them today. We hope that visitors will think about what different colors mean to them\, and how these meanings compare to the roles of colors in the ancient Roman world.\n\nCurators: Catherine Person and Caroline Roberts\n\nView the online exhibition: http://exhibitions.kelsey.lsa.umich.edu/ancient-color/

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Paved with Good Intentions
DESCRIPTION:In keeping with artist David Opdyke’s previous work\, this site-specific installation serves as a critique of U.S. culture and politics. In an era of fake news and daily hyperbole\, Opdyke literally changes the picture by hand painting on 528 vintage postcards of well-known American landmarks and destinations. The postcards are assembled into a large mural--a vast gridded landscape beset by environmental chaos. Each card is placed to fit into the overall image\, and carefully modified with the gouache to show a realistically rendered piece of the overall turmoil.\n\nThe installation also features animated shorts and script-driven video\, which take place within the visual confines of one or more postcards. The animation is inspired\, in part\, by Terry Gilliam’s animation work on Monty Python’s \"Flying Circus\" and by the classical music sound effects in the Road Runner cartoons.\n\nAbout David Opdyke:\nDavid Opdyke is a draughtsman\, sculptor\, and animator known for his trenchant political send-ups of American culture. Born in Schenectady\, NY in 1969\, he graduated from the University of Cincinnati with a degree in painting and sculpture. His work is informed by the massive industrial and corporate restructuring he witnessed growing up\, namely the abandonment of the city center by manufacturing giants General Electric and ALCO. As GE shifted resources to neighboring Niskayuna\, the disparities became hard for Opdyke to ignore. Massive\, decaying factories\, an empty interstate loop\, and unemployment were downtown\; new streets\, expensive homes\, sushi and shopping malls were in the suburbs.\n\nFor 20 years Opdyke worked as a scenic painter and architectural model-maker. Ranging from intricate miniature constructions to room-sized installations\, his artwork explores globalization\, consumerism\, and civilization’s abusive relationship with the environment.\n\nThis project is supported by a grant from the Efroymson Family Fund.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:What Are Little Books Made Of?
DESCRIPTION:The Special Collections Research Center is excited to display a variety of nineteenth and twentieth century children's books made of cloth and related materials.\n\nThe market for children’s books expanded over the course of the nineteenth century\, as childhood mortality rates dropped and literacy rates rose. British and American publishers sought to create “indestructible” books that would appeal to the parents and teachers of very young children. Linen and muslin proved to be practical and appealing materials for such books\, which were usually printed with bright colors and comparatively little text.\n\nCloth books remained popular for almost a century before the cloth rationing of World War II shifted production towards heavy-duty paper substitutes\, such as “linenette.”

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

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Marisa Morán Jahn: The Mighty and the Mythic
DESCRIPTION:Marisa Morán Jahn: The Mighty and the Mythic\nJanuary 24\, 2019 – March 2\, 2019\n\nStamps Gallery is proud to present The Mighty and the Mythic\, a solo exhibition of work by renowned social practice artist Marisa Morán Jahn. For the first time\, The Mighty and the Mythic brings together three key projects — CareForce (2012– ongoing)\, Bibliobandido (2010–ongoing)\, and MIRROR | MASK (2017–ongoing) — that highlight her deep and meaningful collaborations with low-wage immigrants\, caregivers\, and youth. Jahn describes her use of play and humor as essential tools that enable her and her collaborators to portray their lives with dignity\, critique power\, and build momentum within their community. Jahn’s practice is deeply informed by her own experiences growing up as a second-generation immigrant of Chinese and Ecuadorian heritage. For Jahn home was not a fixed place but an adaptation itself. Her varied vocational past as a schoolteacher\, caretaker\, woodshop cleaner-upper\, lumber hauler\, community organizer\, and now university professor and mother informs the urgency in her work to find common ground between (her-)self and (an-)other\, through the concepts of care and empathy. Each of the works in this exhibition highlights her deep engagement with the stories of everyday people\, mundane routines\, and a desire to build an inclusive society. Marisa Morán Jahn: the Mighty and the Mythic celebrates and acknowledges the daily struggles and minor victories of the 99 percent that make up the spirit of our society in the twenty-first century.\n\nArtwork by Marisa Morán Jahn: The Driver (detail)\, from MIRROR | MASK series\, featuring Darlyne Komukama. 2017\, Uganda

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:ChE Seminar Series: Jovan Kamcev
DESCRIPTION:University of California – Berkeley\n“Advanced Polymeric Materials for Water and Energy Applications: Relating Molecular Structure to Macroscopic Properties”\n\nABSTRACT\n\nSecuring adequate\, sustainable supplies of energy and water at affordable costs is an enormous challenge facing humanity. Due to the interconnected relationship between these two vital resources\, often termed the Water-Energy Nexus\, a shortcoming in one could negatively impact the availability of the other. Technologies based on polymeric materials (e.g.\, membranes and sorbents) will play a key role in addressing our water and energy needs due to their efficiency\, simplicity\, and small footprint. The success of such technologies hinges on developing new materials with improved functionality. However\, despite a longstanding interest in this research area\, significant fundamental and practical challenges remain. This presentation will focus on two such challenges: (1) the lack of fundamental understanding of the influence of polymer structure on ion/water transport in dense polymer membranes and (2) the need for materials with exceptional selectivity for neutral contaminants (e.g.\, boron) that are ubiquitous in natural waters and difficult to remove with conventional technologies.\n\nThe first part of the presentation will introduce a theoretical\, unifying framework for ion partitioning and diffusion in ion exchange membranes (IEMs)\, a class of materials that has attracted significant interest for various membrane-based technologies. The framework\, based on counter-ion condensation theory for polyelectrolyte solutions\, accurately predicted ion transport properties of IEMs from basic structural knowledge\, in some cases with no adjustable parameters. The experimental and modeling results elucidate key membrane structural properties that influence ion transport in IEMs and provide guidance on how to rationally design high performance materials. The second part of the presentation will describe the synthesis of novel porous aromatic frameworks (PAFs) with specific functionality for removing boron from aqueous solutions. Due to their exceptionally high porosity and robust chemical structures\, the PAFs exhibited high boron adsorption capacities\, remarkably fast kinetics\, and good reusability. Notably\, the boron-selective PAFs removed trace amounts of boron from synthetic seawater solutions at unprecedented rates\, demonstrating the promise of this relatively new class of microporous polymers for water treatment applications. \n\nBIO\n\nJovan Kamcev\, Ph.D.\, is a postdoctoral scholar working with Prof. Jeffrey Long in the Department of Chemistry at University of California\, Berkeley. He earned his bachelor’s degree in Chemical Engineering and Applied Math & Statistics from Stony Brook University and his master’s and doctorate in Chemical Engineering from the University of Texas at Austin under the guidance of Profs. Benny Freeman and Donald Paul. His graduate research entailed fundamental studies of ion and water transport in ion-containing polymer membranes for water and energy applications. His current research focuses on developing novel porous organic frameworks for various applications\, including selective ion removal from aqueous solutions and energy storage.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:CJS Lecture Series | Motivations of Job Crafting: Evidence from Japan and China
DESCRIPTION:This research contributes to our understanding of job crafting by investigating the role of enjoyment of work and driven to work as job crafting motivations. 154 Supervisor-Employee dyads were surveyed. Enjoyment of work and driven to work were supported as motivators of job crafting. An interaction effect was observed\, with low driven to work weakening the relationship between enjoyment of work and job crafting. Job crafting mediated the relationship between the two motivators and job performance. We add to researchers’ understanding of motivations for job crafting while making the first attempt to explore the job crafting phenomenon in East Asia. \n    \nDr. Greg Laurence teaches negotiation\, organizational behavior\, and HR in graduate and undergraduate programs at the University of Michigan-Flint. His research revolves around employee well-being\, including phenomena such as workspace personalization\, workaholism\, and job crafting. Greg earned his PhD\, MBA\, and MA in International Relations from Syracuse University. \n\nIf you are a person with a disability who requires an accommodation to attend this event\, please reach out to us at least 2 weeks in advance of this event. Please be aware that advance notice is necessary as some accommodations may require more time for the university to arrange.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:The Transition to Cultural Adaptations in the Middle Stone Age in East Africa
DESCRIPTION:The Middle Stone Age began over 300 thousand years ago in East Africa. It marks the beginning of the Revolution that wasn’t in the evolution of modern behavior. Binford characterized the transition to cultural adaptations as the development of a “culturally-constructed” environment or “niche” that was strategically exploited with advanced planning. Gamble proposed that this transition involved the development of intergroup social interaction and information exchange networks to extend the social landscape beyond the boundaries of the local home range. Cultural niche construction using social information for planning is a key feature of the transition from primate troop to human tribal organization.  I will present new archaeological evidence from Middle Stone Age sites in the Kenya Rift Valley for this troop-to-tribe transition.

SUMMARY:Presentation:EHAP Speaker Series:  Hormonal Contraceptives and Breast Cancer:  A Case of Evoluntionary Mismatch
DESCRIPTION:Abstract: \nIn the evolutionary past\, women of reproductive age rarely menstruated as they were usually pregnant or breast-feeding.  In modern societies\, the evolutionarily novel pattern of frequent menses\, and the associated increase in endogenous hormonal exposure\, is a risk factor for breast cancer.  It is unclear\, however\, whether oral contraceptives further increase or actually decrease hormonal exposure.  My collaborators and I examined variation in hormonal exposure across frequently prescribed oral contraceptive (OC) formulations with the goal of providing a quantitative comparison of endogenous and exogenous hormonal exposure.  Endogenous data came from 12 published studies of serum estradiol (E2) and progesterone (P4) in European or American women.  Exogenous data came from pharmacokinetic package insert data for seven different OC formulations.  We found that\, with the exception of one formulation\, median ethinyl estradiol (a synthetic estrogen) exposure over one menstrual cycle was similar to median E2 exposure.  However\, median exposure from progestins (synthetic progesterone) was 4-fold higher than the median endogenous exposure from P4.  Given that breast cancer risk has a dose-response relationship to hormonal exposure\, these findings are cause for concern.  Not all formulations produce the same exposures\, making these findings also pertinent to contraceptive choice.  Our results are discussed in the light of a recent Danish study on hormonal contraceptives and breast cancer risk.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:CLaSP Seminar Series - Prof. James Kasting
DESCRIPTION:Our guest for this week's CLaSP Seminar Series will be Prof. James Kasting of Penn State University. \nPlease join us! \n\nTitle: \"The Search for Life on Planets Around Other Stars\"\n\nAbstract: Planets have now been found around several thousand stars. Some of these are thought to be rocky\, and a handful of those lie within the habitable zone of their parent star\, where liquid water is stable on the planet’s surface. Two years from now\, NASA’s James Webb Space Telescope should launch\, and it may be able to do spectroscopy on transiting rocky planets around nearby M stars\, if good targets are identified by NASA’s TESS mission\, which launches a year earlier. The best opportunity to study Earth-like planets will come 15-20 years later\, however\, if NASA chooses to build one of its proposed direct imaging space telescopes\, currently called LUVOIR and HabEx. With such a telescope\, one could identify and characterize non-transiting planets around the very nearest stars. This could provide information not only about other Earth-like planets\, but also about the existence\, or non-existence\, of extraterrestrial life.

SUMMARY:Presentation:IOE 899 Seminar Series: Jing Li\, Arizona State University
DESCRIPTION:The IOE 899 Seminar Series is open to all. U-M Industrial and Operations Engineering graduate students and faculty are especially encouraged to attend.\n\nThe seminar will be followed by a reception in the IOE Commons (Room 1709) from 4:00 pm-5:00pm.\n\nAbstract: \nWhen learning a new skill\, people can transfer their knowledge about other related skills they have grasped to expedite the learning. This human ability has inspired the development of a class of statistical machine learning models called Transfer Learning (TL). TL is an excellent choice for Precision Medicine because it allows for building a robust model for each patient based on not only the data of that patient but also transferred information from other patients.  \n\nAn important problem that the existing TL literature has overlooked is “negative transfer”\, referred to as the situation of worse performance of a TL model than a model without transfer learning. We provide theoretical study on the risk of negative transfer\, which further motivates the development of a positive TL model to prevent negative transfer. This model is applied to building patient-specific models using smartphone-generated activity data such tapping\, speaking\, and walking to telemonitor patients with the Parkinson’s Disease. Telemonitoring belongs to the emerging health care platform of mHealth\, which utilizes wireless technologies to enable remote monitoring of patient conditions and timely medical decisions. \n\nAdditionally\, this talk will briefly introduce our developments of TL models in other health care applications\, including multi-modality imaging data fusion for early detection of the Alzheimer’s Disease and hierarchical modality and feature selection from neuroimaging data for subtype identification of migraine.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Rackham North: DEI Conversation—Intersectionality
DESCRIPTION:Join your Rackham peers for a DEI conversation about intersectionality. Everyone has multiple visible and invisible identities that influence their experiences and create a lens in which they view others and perceive themselves. During this session\, we will discuss identities in the context of intersectionality. During this DEI Conversation\, we will 1) define intersectionality and discuss how we experience it\, 2) talk about how DEI initiatives at U-M can enhance students’ understanding of intersectionality\, and 3) discuss how moving forward notions of intersectionality can foster understanding and inclusivity.\nPre-registration is requested at https://myumi.ch/6nEVo.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Webinar: New technology for old problems: Exploring the use of eDNA in the reserve system
DESCRIPTION:Environmental DNA (eDNA)\, or DNA present in an environmental sample\, is emerging as a powerful tool to detect species present in an ecosystem without having to actually capture and identify individual organisms. Fish\, invertebrates\, and other animals shed DNA\, through fragments of tissue and reproductive and waste products\, into the environment in which they live. We will present initial results from a pilot environmental eDNA monitoring program being developed and tested at several National Estuarine Research Reserve (NERR) sites in New England and Oregon. Sampling is conducted in coordination with traditional monitoring programs to validate species identification and detection limits.\n\nThis webinar is an opportunity for the research team to engage reserves that are considering eDNA monitoring\, and compare notes with other researchers and natural resource managers that are using eDNA approaches.

SUMMARY:Presentation:Chair's Distinguished Lecture: Autonomous systems in the intersection of controls\, learning theory and formal methods
DESCRIPTION:Ufuk Topcu\, Assistant Professor at The University of Texas at Austin\n\nAutonomous systems are emerging as a driving technology for countlessly many applications. Numerous disciplines tackle the challenges toward making these systems agile\, adaptable\, reliable\, user friendly and economical. On the other hand\, the existing disciplinary boundaries delay and possibly even obstruct progress. I argue that the non-conventional problems that arise in the design and verification of autonomous systems require hybrid solutions at the intersection of learning\, formal methods and controls.\n\n\nI will discuss three problems at varying levels of detail. The results in the first problem will help program autonomous systems in hours---as opposed to the current levels of days or weeks---to deliver complex missions in dynamic and adversarial environments with provable guarantees of correctness. My studies of the second problem have resulted in a series of new reinforcement learning algorithms. These algorithms---unlike conventional learning algorithms---provide strong guarantees with respect to given formal specifications expressed in variants of temporal logic during training and execution. The third problem focuses on developing verifiable algorithms for control-oriented learning that will help autonomous systems survive abrupt and possibly severe run-time damage or faults with minimal sacrifice in the mission objectives. Throughout the talk\, I will place the results in the context of aerospace applications with concrete examples.\n\nAbout the Speaker: \n\nUfuk Topcu joined the Department of Aerospace Engineering at the University of Texas at Austin as an assistant professor in Fall 2015. He received his Ph.D. degree from the University of California at Berkeley in 2008. He held research positions at the University of Pennsylvania and California Institute of Technology. His research focuses on the theoretical\, algorithmic and computational aspects of design and verification of autonomous systems through novel connections between formal methods\, learning theory and controls. He has received the NSF CAREER and AFOSR YIP awards.

DESCRIPTION:Mutualisms (species interactions that mutually benefit interacting species) are tremendously prevalent and diverse. However\, the evolutionary causes and consequences of mutualisms remain relatively under-explored compared to that of competitive or exploitative interactions. This Valentine’s day\, join me for a talk exploring the macroevolution and ecology of some of my favorite mutualistic interactions!\n\nView YouTube video of seminar: https://youtu.be/xTwquMjT3iw

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Geotechnical Seminar
DESCRIPTION:Conveyance systems for drinking water to major cities are critical infrastructure components. Most systems utilize a combination of pipelines and tunnels\, which were typically built 50 to 100 years ago. Some of these systems are either susceptible to risks of rupture or failure\, or are experiencing significant operations and maintenance issues. Two examples from opposite coasts in North America are the Delaware Aqueduct in New York State\, and the Second Narrows Undercrossing in Vancouver\, British Columbia. For the Delaware Aqueduct\, a portion of the original tunnel is experiencing significant leakage below the Hudson River within a high-permeability rock mass. For the Second Narrows Undercrossing\, construction of three pipelines across the Burrard Inlet at shallow depths and in liquefiable soils put them at risk for both scour/anchor strike damage and failure during the potential large earthquakes that could occur in the area. Specific issues and technical challenges will be presented for each project.\n\nSamuel Swartz is a Principal Tunnel Engineer based out of Chicago\, IL. With more than 20 years of experience in the tunneling industry\, he has provided tunnel design on a number of challenging projects across North America\, and in Australia and New Zealand. A native of Ann Arbor\, he received his undergraduate degree from the University of Michigan in Civil/Geotechnical Engineering\, and a Master’s Degree from the University of California at Berkeley in Geotechnical Engineering.\nJake Facey is a Senior Staff Engineer based out of Pittsburgh\, PA. His work experience spans three years. In that time\, he has contributed to the design of numerous large- and small-scale projects across the United States and Canada. Jake graduated from the University of Michigan in 2016 with a focus in Geotechnical Engineering.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:ELI Winter Workshop Series: POSTER PRESENTATIONS: INTERACTING FLUENTLY WITH YOUR AUDIENCE
DESCRIPTION:We often frame poster presentations at academic conferences and symposia as “easier” and less high-stakes than presenting a paper or participating in a panel\, but poster presentations are about 10% presenting and 90% interacting with one’s “audience” of a few people crowded around the poster in a busy\, noisy conference space. So much Q & A can feel daunting\, but can also be fun and interesting to prepare for with other graduate students. In this workshop\, we will not be working on poster design: instead\, we’ll work on strategies for fluent communication with visitors to your poster. If you have a poster presentation coming up\, bring a sketch or draft of your poster so that you can practice taking questions from others at the workshop. Otherwise\, come ready to practice formulating and responding to typical question types in poster presentations.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Gifts of Art presents Impressions in Pastel
DESCRIPTION:Sharon Will’s commitment to painting is to capture the simple\, everyday beauty around her in her native Michigan and beyond. She is passionate about painting plein air (outdoors) whenever possible\, as she feels the direct observation from life is the best teacher to truly see the subtleties of light and color in nature. Working on sanded paper\, her process begins with a pastel and alcohol/mineral spirits under-painting wash to establish value and color. Soft pastel is applied in layers\, often in contrasting color and temperatures for vibrancy. Over her 35-year career in painting\, Will has won numerous national awards. She also operates a custom framing business from her home/studio in Washington Township and teaches occasional workshops.

SUMMARY:Reception / Open House:Whine\, Werk\, & Roll: The Art of the Lapa
DESCRIPTION:The lap\, worn around the waist\, is the uniform of the African dancer. At its simplest it is a rectangular piece of cloth\, at its most elegant it is a beautiful skirt made of different colors\, textures\, and patterns. Whine\, Werk\, and Roll: the Art of the Lapa celebrates this utilitarian object of beauty and the craftsmanship of the men and women who sew their seams.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Written Culture of Christian Egypt: Coptic Manuscripts from the University of Michigan Collection
DESCRIPTION:The dry climate of the Egyptian desert offers an ideal environment for the preservation of ancient artifacts. As the sands of Egypt has preserved also numerous Coptic manuscripts\, the transmission of the literary heritage of Egyptian Christians can be documented quite well from its beginnings in the 4th century CE until its decline in the 12th-13th centuries CE\, when it was completely superseded by Arabic. This exhibit aims to show some of the hallmarks of Coptic literature using manuscripts kept in the Special Collections Research Center of the University of Michigan Library. Topics explored include the main Coptic dialects\; bilingualism in Egypt\; books read by the Egyptian monks\; and the works of Shenoute the Great\, the most important author of Coptic literature.\n\nThis exhibit is curated by Dr. Frank Feder and Dr. Alin Suciu from the Göttingen Academy of Sciences and Humanities. The exhibit and related programming are offered with support from the Department of Middle East Studies and the Kelsey Museum of Archaeology.\n\nJoin us for an opening lecture and reception at 4:30 p.m. on November 12 in the Hatcher Library Gallery.

SUMMARY:Conference / Symposium:Complex Spaces: Navigating Text & Territory
DESCRIPTION:Please see the program below (under \"Web and Social\") for complete event details.\n\nThe 2019 Charles F. Fraker Conference at the University of Michigan will take as its point of departure the complicated interactions of space\, place\, and mapping\, in all of their contexts. This conference hopes to both clarify and complicate the notion of spatiality which arose during what Foucault referred to as the “epoch of space” and has continued to develop after the “spatial turn” in the humanities at the end of the 20th century. Further\, we hope with this conference to place a focus on geocriticism\, a term developed in part by Robert Tally\, Jr.\, whom we are delighted to welcome as our keynote speaker.\n\nThe broad understandings and implications of space do not permit a facile definition nor do they warrant one. Instead of conceptualizing space as a backdrop for historicism\, modern critics choose to regard space as an actor with significant agency. The goal of this conference is not to effect a common definition of the complexities of space\, but rather to embrace these intricacies through dialogue. As we know\, physical space is ubiquitous and\, at times\, unremarkable or invisible. It can welcome us or alienate us\; place us at the center\, in the margins\, in between\, or beyond\; facilitate or hinder our movement\, choices\, and behavior\; and influence our very thoughts. It follows that our work is similarly affected by spatial concerns. What can we learn from the spaces created by cultural production?​ ​How does space affect the production of knowledge? How does space relate to power\, or to memory\, or to narrative?\nThis year\, we welcome panelists from Brown\, Concordia (Montréal)\, CUNY\, Emory\, Purdue\, Rutgers\, SUNY–Buffalo\, Texas State\, UCSB\, UAlberta\, UChicago\, UVirginia\, UW–Madison\, and UT–Austin\, as well as our own University of Michigan. In recent years\, papers have been given in different Romance languages as well as in English\; 2019 will be no exception as our program includes panelists from across languages and disciplines.\n\nThe conference will take place on the 15-16th February 2019 at the University of Michigan–Ann Arbor. On Friday\, 15th February\, it will be held in the Michigan League\, and on Saturday\, 16th February\, it will be held in the Rackham Graduate School\; both buildings are near Ingalls Mall on UM’s Central Campus.\n \nThe keynote address will be delivered on Saturday at 5PM in the Rackham Amphitheatre.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Exhibition | Ancient Color
DESCRIPTION:The Roman world was a colorful place. Although we often associate the Romans with white marble statues\, these statues — as well as Roman homes\, clothing\, and art — were vibrant with color. This exhibition examines colors in the ancient Roman world\, how these colors were produced\, where they were found\, what the Romans thought about them\, and how we study them today. We hope that visitors will think about what different colors mean to them\, and how these meanings compare to the roles of colors in the ancient Roman world.\n\nCurators: Catherine Person and Caroline Roberts\n\nView the online exhibition: http://exhibitions.kelsey.lsa.umich.edu/ancient-color/

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Paved with Good Intentions
DESCRIPTION:In keeping with artist David Opdyke’s previous work\, this site-specific installation serves as a critique of U.S. culture and politics. In an era of fake news and daily hyperbole\, Opdyke literally changes the picture by hand painting on 528 vintage postcards of well-known American landmarks and destinations. The postcards are assembled into a large mural--a vast gridded landscape beset by environmental chaos. Each card is placed to fit into the overall image\, and carefully modified with the gouache to show a realistically rendered piece of the overall turmoil.\n\nThe installation also features animated shorts and script-driven video\, which take place within the visual confines of one or more postcards. The animation is inspired\, in part\, by Terry Gilliam’s animation work on Monty Python’s \"Flying Circus\" and by the classical music sound effects in the Road Runner cartoons.\n\nAbout David Opdyke:\nDavid Opdyke is a draughtsman\, sculptor\, and animator known for his trenchant political send-ups of American culture. Born in Schenectady\, NY in 1969\, he graduated from the University of Cincinnati with a degree in painting and sculpture. His work is informed by the massive industrial and corporate restructuring he witnessed growing up\, namely the abandonment of the city center by manufacturing giants General Electric and ALCO. As GE shifted resources to neighboring Niskayuna\, the disparities became hard for Opdyke to ignore. Massive\, decaying factories\, an empty interstate loop\, and unemployment were downtown\; new streets\, expensive homes\, sushi and shopping malls were in the suburbs.\n\nFor 20 years Opdyke worked as a scenic painter and architectural model-maker. Ranging from intricate miniature constructions to room-sized installations\, his artwork explores globalization\, consumerism\, and civilization’s abusive relationship with the environment.\n\nThis project is supported by a grant from the Efroymson Family Fund.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:What Are Little Books Made Of?
DESCRIPTION:The Special Collections Research Center is excited to display a variety of nineteenth and twentieth century children's books made of cloth and related materials.\n\nThe market for children’s books expanded over the course of the nineteenth century\, as childhood mortality rates dropped and literacy rates rose. British and American publishers sought to create “indestructible” books that would appeal to the parents and teachers of very young children. Linen and muslin proved to be practical and appealing materials for such books\, which were usually printed with bright colors and comparatively little text.\n\nCloth books remained popular for almost a century before the cloth rationing of World War II shifted production towards heavy-duty paper substitutes\, such as “linenette.”

My teaching interests have evolved to keep pace with my own travels in time. So the courses I have taught include Slavery and South Asian History\, the Gender of South Asian pasts\, Early Modernity in the subcontinent\, and The Power of Performance.   \n\nRecently\, I find myself drawn simultaneously to both intellectual and economic histories of the subcontinent. In particular\, I am interested in the ways in which wealth travelled between and within monastic lineages in the past. Having worked on the ways in which monastic governmentality was forgotten in Indian historiography by the early decades of the twentieth century\, I am currently revisiting the costs of such forgetting to women's wealth in eastern India. In brief\, I am interested in excavating a new history of wealth.\"

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

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:EEB Special Seminar: Causes and consequences of trait variation across biological scales
DESCRIPTION:From minute differences in the structure of proteins to wholesale changes in ecosystems\, variation in ’replicate’ biological units underpins the complexity of the natural world and defines our understanding of biodiversity. Interestingly\, separate but related processes shape these trait differences across biological scales (e.g. microevolution in populations versus assembly of communities). These processes occur simultaneously in all natural systems\, but are only rarely considered together\, stunting a holistic understanding of multi-scale biological systems. Here\, I use dragonfly larvae to investigate (1) how traits are linked to one another across biological scales\, (2) the relative importance of trait change at different biological scales\, and (3) the ecosystem consequences of multi-scale trait change.\n\nImage credit: Tobias David Mankis

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Marisa Morán Jahn: The Mighty and the Mythic
DESCRIPTION:Marisa Morán Jahn: The Mighty and the Mythic\nJanuary 24\, 2019 – March 2\, 2019\n\nStamps Gallery is proud to present The Mighty and the Mythic\, a solo exhibition of work by renowned social practice artist Marisa Morán Jahn. For the first time\, The Mighty and the Mythic brings together three key projects — CareForce (2012– ongoing)\, Bibliobandido (2010–ongoing)\, and MIRROR | MASK (2017–ongoing) — that highlight her deep and meaningful collaborations with low-wage immigrants\, caregivers\, and youth. Jahn describes her use of play and humor as essential tools that enable her and her collaborators to portray their lives with dignity\, critique power\, and build momentum within their community. Jahn’s practice is deeply informed by her own experiences growing up as a second-generation immigrant of Chinese and Ecuadorian heritage. For Jahn home was not a fixed place but an adaptation itself. Her varied vocational past as a schoolteacher\, caretaker\, woodshop cleaner-upper\, lumber hauler\, community organizer\, and now university professor and mother informs the urgency in her work to find common ground between (her-)self and (an-)other\, through the concepts of care and empathy. Each of the works in this exhibition highlights her deep engagement with the stories of everyday people\, mundane routines\, and a desire to build an inclusive society. Marisa Morán Jahn: the Mighty and the Mythic celebrates and acknowledges the daily struggles and minor victories of the 99 percent that make up the spirit of our society in the twenty-first century.\n\nArtwork by Marisa Morán Jahn: The Driver (detail)\, from MIRROR | MASK series\, featuring Darlyne Komukama. 2017\, Uganda

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Redesigning Manufacturing Machines\, Design Tools\, and Robotics for Smart Human Augmented Spatial Interfaces
DESCRIPTION:Abstract\nThe convergence of many factors such as low-cost sensors\, electronics\, computing\, fabrication\, and more recently machine learning\, aided by human interactive interfaces has created the potential to redesign our manufacturing ecosystem. I will describe three themes in our research. First is redesigning design tools and machines around humans to enabling easy access to manufacturing by non-experts. I will provide examples of transforming everyday objects to interactive objects\, mixed dimensional modeling\, and creating objects directly in the physical world. Second\, I will show construction of reconfigurable modular robots and mixed reality interactions with new forms of distributed intelligence and an open system architecture\, that can give rise to vastly new forms of smart machines\, robotic structures\, and functions. Furthermore\, because these robots and machines can be programmed and controlled with just a mobile phone\, the developers of such “low-cost” robotics and machine “apps” do not need programming experiences at all. It will transform high-tech to low-tech and make it accessible to small and medium scale industries. Third\, I will demonstrate new forms of location-aware collaborative intelligence and information exchange between humans-robots and machines. In addition\, new soft interface wearables will free hands to work and interact at the same time\, enabling augmentation. With such possibilities\, our factories can be more productive and agile by using cognitively intuitive\, spatially aware\, and easy to program interactive interfaces that aid the human(s)-robot(s)-machine(s) to work together. Our research directions in artificial intelligence-based human augmentation technologies will have a direct impact on workforce re-skilling programs\, increasing human labor capacity\, factory productivity\, and agility. \n\nBio\nKarthik Ramani is the Donald W.

DESCRIPTION:They call her Long Tall Marcia Ball\, and she's one of a kind! Marcia Ball grew up in Vinton\, Louisiana\, in the heart of an area overflowing with blues\, zydeco\, and swamp rock. All the female members of her family played the piano. In 1970 Marcia and her first husband were heading for San Francisco\, but their car broke down in Austin\, and that's where she stayed. She put together a trio of talents: piano playing\, songwriting\, and vocals. In 1983 Marcia released her first solo album\, \"Soulful Dress\,\" and ever since then she's been letting the good times roll at The Ark and other clubs around the country where a corps of devoted fans has watched her evolved into a true legend of the piano blues. Marcia has won nine Blues Music Awards\, and she was recently inducted into the Gulf Coast Music Hall of Fame. Come check out music from Marcia's fabulous recent album \"Shine Bright\"!\n\nAfter a dozen acclaimed albums\, virtuoso slide guitarist and bandleader Sonny Landreth has released \"Recorded Live in Lafayette\,\" capturing the one-of-a-kind live Sonny experience. Sonny Landreth has collaborated with the very top names in guitar over the years: Eric Clapton\, Mark Knopfler\, Eric Johnson\, Derek Trucks—the list goes on. The noted slideman cut his musical teeth in The Red Hot Louisiana Band of zydeco king Clifton Chenier\, and he has since recorded and toured with artists ranging from John Mayall to John Hiatt. \"Recorded Live in Lafayette\" adds another major chapter to his tale\, as new vocal and instrumental colors emerge

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Statistics Department Seminar Series: Tonglin Zhang\, Associate Professor\, Department of Statistics\, Purdue University
DESCRIPTION:Recently\, rapid advances in science and technology have brought extraordinary amount of data that cannot be analyzed by traditional statistical or machine learning approaches and algorithms. These advances provide unprecedented opportunities and challenges to tackle much larger and more complicated data in academics and industry. To overcome these difficulties\, massive computing frameworks such as MapReduce and Spark are becoming increasingly important. However\, statistical challenges have not been paid much attention to in the implementation of these frameworks. Recently\, we have proposed to use sufficient statistics instead of the whole data in the analysis. We have investigated the concept of sufficient statistics under the framework of a variety of statistical approaches\, including linear regression and generalized linear models. The current talk will focus on linear regression problems. It will briefly mention the idea to generalized linear models.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Psychology Methods Hour:  Meta-Analyses in the Replication Crisis Era: Steps\, Challenges and Best Practices
DESCRIPTION:In recent years\, discourse in psychology has been substantially affected by the 'replication crisis' - the realization in our field that many of its most prominent studies do not reliably replicate. Although large scale replication efforts and highly publicized failures to replicate have been the most notable ways of assessing and showcasing the reproducibility of psychological research\, meta-analyses can be a useful option for evaluating the rates of replicability in a population of studies in the literature. However\, since their inception\, meta-analyses have also been the subject of censure. There is the issue of publication bias causing inflated effects\, the problem of the inclusion of the results of under-powered studies and the overlooked complication of heterogeneity. In this talk\, Dominic and Sammy show how meta-analyses can be improved\, including the use of p-curve analyses and continuously cumulating meta-analysis. They then go on to discuss how meta-analyses can serve as diagnostic tools for assessing statistical power\, selective reporting bias\, and between-study heterogeneity and ultimately\, how meta-analyses can themselves be used as way quantify the degree of replicability in psychological science.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:she was here\, once
DESCRIPTION:The mobility and displacement of the Black body\, from port to holding cell\, to ward and out\, is a history that is embedded in our communities socially\, culturally and geographically. Alluding to feelings of pain\, otherness\, power and triumph\, \"she was here\, once\" features work that illustrates a moment of remembrance and reflection on the women who have roamed these spaces before us.\n\nIn summer 2018\, artist Nastassja Swift organized a collaborative workshop and public performance in her home city of Richmond\, Virginia. Using a range of choreographed movement\, sound\, and solidarity\, eight Black women and girls\, wearing large needle felted wool masks\, traced the ancestral footprints of the arrival of the Black body in Richmond. The 3.5 mile walk began in Shockoe Bottom (the site of the importation of slaves into Richmond\, and one of the largest sources of slave trade in America) and concluded in the Jackson Ward neighborhood (one of the largest Black communities in Richmond).\n\nThe multi-layered piece has produced a short film\, mini documentary\, photography\, and performance masks\, on display in her solo exhibition\, \"she was here\, once\" in Lane Hall.\n\nLane Hall Gallery is open to the public weekdays from 8am - 4pm. Class visits are encouraged.\n\nAccessibility: Ramp and elevator access at the E. Washington Street entrance (by the loading dock). There are accessible restrooms on the south end of Lane Hall\, on each floor of the building. A gender neutral restroom is available on the first floor.\n\nContact Heidi Bennett\, IRWG Event Planner (heidiab@umich.edu) with questions about this exhibition.\n\nCosponsors: Department of Women's Studies\, Stamps School of Art & Design\, Department of English\, Art History\, Eisenberg Institute for Historical Studies\, Center for the Education of Women+

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Disclosure Dilemmas: Hidden Benefits of Revealing Not So Hidden Stigmas at Work
DESCRIPTION:This talk will present findings from three sets of studies demonstrating the potential benefits of disclosing hidden stigmas at work. The first examines how vocal cues can differentiate heterosexual and non-heterosexual individuals\, and how these distinctions can ultimately lead to job-related discrimination. The second study examines how disclosing a non-heterosexual identity can improve interpersonal outcomes when stigmas become known through indirect cues. The third study meta-analytically examines both the intrapersonal and interpersonal benefits of disclosing/expressing a stigmatized identity\, as well as the boundary conditions of these effects. These studies are representative of my general program of research in that they identify subtle forms of workplace discrimination as well as potential strategies that stigmatized targets can engage in to remediate these barriers.

SUMMARY:Presentation:CCN Forum:  Metacognition and the Ancient Problem of \"Knowing Thyself\"
DESCRIPTION:I describe research at the intersection of cognitive and social psychology investigating how accurately people evaluate their intellectual\, professional\, and social performances—a task not only at the heart of meta-cognition but also the ancient Western exhortation to “know thyself.”  In particular\, I discuss the so-called Dunning-Kruger effect\, which asserts that inexpert and unknowledgeable individuals fail to recognize (scratch that\, cannot be expected to recognize) just how severe their deficits are. I discuss the mechanisms underlying the effect\, and also its social cognitive extension:  People in general not only have difficulty identifying intellectual weaknesses in themselves but also genius and virtuosity in other people.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Messianic Minimalism: Anecdotes of the Coming World (Benjamin\, Bloch\, Blumenberg)
DESCRIPTION:Hans Blumenberg's 1988 book The Saint Matthew Passion\, while ostensibly concerned with the possible\, secular reception of Bach’s masterpiece\, pursues a series of 'theological lines of flight' via anecdotes\, insights\, and apercus generated by often heterodox theological debates and their literary receptions. One such line of flight is the retraction of the passion itself in Gersholm Scholem’s anecdote about the advent of the messiah in which almost nothing changes\, as retold by Benjamin\, Bloch\, and now Blumenberg. Here Blumenberg returns to his earlier concerns with Gnosticism (Legitmacy\, 1966) and considers a different answer to what has gone so wrong with creation that it needs to be destroyed.\n\nPaul Fleming is Professor of Comparative Literature and German Studies as well as the Taylor Family Director of the Society for the Humanities. He has published monographs on Exemplarity and Mediocrity: The Art of the Average from Bourgeois Tragedy to Realism (2009) and The Pleasures of Abandonment: Jean Paul and the Life of Humor (2006) along with edited volumes on Hans Blumenberg\, Siegfried Kracauer\, the scholars around Stefan George\, and Ulrich Peltzer. He is currently co-translating Blumenberg’s The Saint Matthew Passion for Cornell Press as well as completing a book-length project that examines the use of the anecdote in and as theory with respect to questions of exemplarity\, evidence\, history\, and rhetoric.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Building bulk observables in AdS/CFT
DESCRIPTION:The AdS/CFT correspondence relates a theory of gravity in anti-de Sitter space to a CFT on the boundary.  A natural question is how local fields in AdS can be expressed in terms of the CFT.  In the 1/N expansion this can be done by (i) identifying suitable building blocks - free bulk fields - in the CFT\, (ii) assembling the building blocks to make interacting bulk fields.  I'll present an approach where the first step is carried out using modular flow in the CFT and the second step is driven by requiring bulk causality.

SUMMARY:Meeting:AMAS and CMENAS Event. Islamophobia Working Group Meeting
DESCRIPTION:The Islamophobia Working Group (IWG) was assembled in January 2016 to address the national crisis of Islamophobia and its impact on our campus community. We -- a group of faculty\, staff\, and students -- have become actively involved in the University’s strategic plan for Diversity\, Equity\, and Inclusion and gained visibility across the university. For over two years\, the IWG has been run through the Arab and Muslim American Studies Program in American Culture\; starting in Fall 2018\, the IWG will be co-led by AMAS and CMENAS. \n    \nOur work is driven by issues brought to the group by any student\, staff\, or faculty member. The group strategizes as a collective to figure out the best approach to a given issue. Thus\, if you encounter a pertinent issue\, we want to know about it and we welcome your participation in the group. \n    \nIf you would like to join our email list or come to a meeting\, please contact Professor Samer Ali (samerali@umich.edu)\, or IWG student coordinator\, Silan Fadlallah (silanf@umich.edu). \n\nCosponsors: American Culture\; Arab Muslim & American Studies\; Islamic Studies Program\; Office of Multiethnic Student Affairs\; Muslim Students' Association\; Arab Students' Association\; International Institute\n\n---\nIf you are a person with a disability who requires an accommodation to attend this event\, please reach out to us at least 2 weeks in advance of this event. Please be aware that advance notice is necessary as some accommodations may require more time for the university to arrange. Contact: Silan Fadlallah (silanf@umich.edu)
