Existing university policies defer the responsibility of checking for the correctness and appropriateness of LLM responses to students and assume that they will have the required knowledge and skills to do so on their own. This lecture teaches attendees how to critically engage with LLMs to understand their strengths and weaknesses. As part of the lecture, the attendees engage in a hands-on activity to evaluate an LLM provided by the university; first by themselves, and then with a scaffolded design probe that guides them through an end-user auditing exercise. \r\n\r\nBiography\r\nNikola Banovic, Ph.D., is an Associate Professor of Computer Science and Engineering and an Associate Director of Michigan Institute for Data and AI in Society at the University of Michigan, Ann Arbor. His research broadly focuses on Human-AI Interaction, Explainable AI (XAI), and Responsible AI. In particular, he has taken a keen interest in developing methods to explain the decisions of Artificial Intelligence (AI) systems to end-users without computer science backgrounds. Nikola\u2019s research focuses on using explanations to raise end-user AI literacy, which in turn could help them detect and counter untrustworthy AI. Before joining the University of Michigan, Nikola received his Ph.D. degree from the Human-Computer Interaction Institute (HCII) at Carnegie Mellon University, and his B.Sc. and M.Sc. degrees from the University of Toronto. Nikola\u2019s work has been recognized with an NSF CAREER award, and best paper and honorable mention awards at premier HCI conferences.", "occurrence_notes":null, "guid":"139515-21885680@events.umich.edu", "permalink":"http:\/\/events.umich.edu\/event\/139515", "building_id":"1005451", "building_name":"Central Campus Classroom Building", "building_official_id":1005451, "campus_maps_id":"652", "campus_maps_link_path":"central-campus-classroom-building", "campus_maps_link":"https:\/\/maps.studentlife.umich.edu\/building\/central-campus-classroom-building", "room":"3420", "location_name":"Central Campus Classroom Building", "has_livestream":0, "cost":"", "tags":["Academic Technology At Michigan","computer science","Discussion","Electrical And Computer Engineering","Electrical Engineering and Computer Science","Engineering","Free","Genai","Generative Ai","Workshop"], "website":"https:\/\/midas.umich.edu\/events\/how-do-i-know-i-can-trust-chatgpt-how-to-critically-engage-with-generative-ai\/", "links":[ { "type":"other", "url":"https:\/\/midas.umich.edu\/events\/how-do-i-know-i-can-trust-chatgpt-how-to-critically-engage-with-generative-ai\/", "title":"Event Website" }, { "type":"registration", "url":"https:\/\/myumi.ch\/w932d", "title":"Event Registration" } ], "sponsors":[ { "group_name":"Michigan Institute for Data and AI in Society MIDAS", "group_id":"3521", "website":"" } ], "image_url":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/attachments\/2025\/09\/event_139515_original-1.jpg", "image_description":"Photo of Nikola Banovic smiling at the camera", "styled_images":{ "event_thumb":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_thumb\/media\/attachments\/2025\/09\/event_139515_original-1.jpg", "event_large":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_large\/media\/attachments\/2025\/09\/event_139515_original-1.jpg", "event_large_2x":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/resolve\/event_large_2x\/media\/attachments\/2025\/09\/event_139515_original-1.jpg", "event_large_lightbox":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_large_lightbox\/media\/attachments\/2025\/09\/event_139515_original-1.jpg", "group_thumb":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/resolve\/group_thumb\/media\/attachments\/2025\/09\/event_139515_original-1.jpg", "group_thumb_square":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/resolve\/group_thumb_square\/media\/attachments\/2025\/09\/event_139515_original-1.jpg", "group_large":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/resolve\/group_large\/media\/attachments\/2025\/09\/event_139515_original-1.jpg", "group_large_lightbox":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/resolve\/group_large_lightbox\/media\/attachments\/2025\/09\/event_139515_original-1.jpg", "event_large_crop":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/resolve\/event_large_crop\/media\/attachments\/2025\/09\/event_139515_original-1.jpg", "event_list":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_list\/media\/attachments\/2025\/09\/event_139515_original-1.jpg", "event_list_2x":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_list_2x\/media\/attachments\/2025\/09\/event_139515_original-1.jpg", "event_grid":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_grid\/media\/attachments\/2025\/09\/event_139515_original-1.jpg", "event_grid_2x":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/resolve\/event_grid_2x\/media\/attachments\/2025\/09\/event_139515_original-1.jpg", "event_feature_large":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/resolve\/event_feature_large\/media\/attachments\/2025\/09\/event_139515_original-1.jpg", "event_feature_thumb":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/resolve\/event_feature_thumb\/media\/attachments\/2025\/09\/event_139515_original-1.jpg" }, "qr_code_url":"http:\/\/events.umich.edu\/event\/139515\/qrcode.png", "occurrence_count":1, "first_occurrence":21885680 } , { "id":"137996-21881109", "datetime_modified":"20250822T095313", "datetime_start":"20251015T120000", "datetime_end":"20251015T130000", "has_end_time":1, "date_start":"2025-10-15", "date_end":"2025-10-15", "time_start":"12:00:00", "time_end":"13:00:00", "time_zone":"America\/Detroit", "event_title":"Entrepreneurial Leadership Program (ELP) Info Session", "occurrence_title":"", "combined_title":"Entrepreneurial Leadership Program (ELP) Info Session", "event_subtitle":"", "event_type":"Lecture \/ Discussion", "event_type_id":"13", "description":"The Entrepreneurial Leadership Program (ELP) is designed for a select cohort of students and combines experiential learning with mentorship.

Based on fieldwork in the Cairo branch of the world\u2019s first Islamic television channel, it traces the ways in which pious struggles over the forms and ends of Islamic media articulated with broader struggles over the forms and ends of a \u201cNew Egypt,\u201d radically reconfiguring both the religious and the revolutionary for millions of ordinary people. Taking seriously the internal fractures of Egypt\u2019s Islamic Revival offers new insight on the intersections of religion, culture and politics in the region beyond the conventional \u201cIslamism versus secularism\" frameworks that dominate analysis of authoritarianism in the Arab world.\r\n \r\n Yasmin Moll is an Assistant Professor in the Department of Anthropology at the University of Michigan. A socio-cultural anthropologist, Dr. Moll\u2019s research interests span the intersections of religion, media, and politics as well as questions of race, indigeneity and heritage activism in the Middle East and North Africa. Her work explores what a methodological attunement to theological contestations reveals about everyday dynamics of ethical belonging and moral boundary-making in highly polarized contexts.\r\n\r\n RSVP: https:\/\/myumi.ch\/9p321\r\n\r\n\r\nAccommodation: If there is anything we can do to make this event accessible to you, please contact us.

Relokanti, despite possessing financial, linguistic, and cultural capital abroad, remain politically silent in both public and private spheres. Drawing on interviews and participant observation conducted during fieldwork in Georgia and her most recent trip to Serbia, Liudmila Listrovaya will show how fears of reprisal, familial repercussions, and community ostracism converge to suppress transnational political action.\r\n \r\nThe data reveal a fraught trade-off: public dissent jeopardizes personal and family ties and risks social isolation within host communities, while silence extends the Russian state\u2019s extraterritorial reach. The authoritarian state\u2019s mechanisms of surveillance and control, ranging from political threats to the possibility of legal punishment and social coercion, produce powerful disincentives to dissent among diasporic populations. By unpacking these dynamics, this research advances theories of transnational authoritarianism and the ethics of voice and silence under authoritarianism. It also highlights the need for host-country policies and diaspora organizations to develop protective strategies that restore exiled communities\u2019 capacity for collective action and political expression.\r\n \r\nAs an environmental and political sociologist specializing in Russia, Liudmila Listrovaya's research spans environmental inequality and governance, authoritarian populism, and war-prompted migration. She received her Ph.D. in Sociology from the University of Oregon in 2024, during which she also completed a six-month internship with the United Nations Environment Programme in Geneva.\r\n \r\nDr. Listrovaya's current research projects include exploring the intersection of authoritarian populism and environmental issues in Russia, focusing on how the history of internal colonialism and ethnicity discourse has shaped environmental inequality and its perceptions. Another key project examines the war in Ukraine and its consequences, specifically regime-prompted outmigration from Russia. For this, she conducted ethnographic fieldwork in Georgia and collected interviews with Russian political migrants. Her research has been published in *Qualitative Sociology*, *Social Forces*, *Environmental Sociology* and accepted for publication in *Society and Natural Resources*.\r\n \r\nIf there is anything we can do to make this event accessible to you, please contact us.

The residents of these domains were subject to a doubled sovereignty: the sovereignty of the empire, centered on jurisprudence and oriented towards the horizon of the right to take life or let live, and the sovereignty of a chiefly house, centered on kinship and bondage and oriented towards the horizon of the right to enslave. Drawing on the archive of a Nasu chiefly house, this talk follows a chiefly heir named Nuo Zhenxing as he was expelled from the chiefly house by his adoptive mother and tortured by a district magistrate during the devastating Jiaqing famine of 1815-1817. I juxtapose Zhenxing\u2019s experiences of hunger and exile, recorded in his Chinese-language diary, with fabulations of thought and ritual such dream statues and twisted grass criminals, from texts in the indigenous Yi (or Ne) script, that reflect ways ordinary farmers and slaves experienced double sovereignty. \r\n\r\nProfessor Anne Pitcher, the Joel Samoff Collegiate Professor of Political Science and Afroamerican and African Studies\r\n\r\nLecture Title: Disrupting the Border: State Sovereignty, Domestic Corruption, and Transnational Kleptocracy\r\n\r\nLecture Abstract: In recent years, studies of corruption have provided extraordinary insight into the pilfering of state resources by politicians. There are exhaustive case studies of nepotism, bribery, and embezzlement in Azerbaijan or Zimbabwe. Scholars have identified different corruption types and Transparency International provides country rankings according to citizens\u2019 perceptions of corruption. Yet, many of these studies stop at national borders. By contrast, an emerging literature in International Relations documents the features of \u201ctransnational kleptocracy\u201d or rather, the cross-border movement of public assets that politicians have hijacked for personal gain. Owing to changes in the global economy, state sovereignty has now become \u201celastic\u201d and permeable, which has facilitated the transnational flow of capital and the purchase of real estate beyond domestic jurisdictions. My research builds a conceptual bridge between these two literatures and offers a means by which scholars can jointly evaluate the association between corruption and transnational kleptocracy. \r\n\r\nProfessor Silke Weineck, the Grace Lee Boggs Collegiate Professor of Comparative Literature and German Studies\r\n\r\nLecture Title: On Honor\r\n\r\nLecture Abstract: In the Nicomachean Ethics, Aristotle asserts that virtue is the condition of being friends with yourself: \u201ca [good] person wishes to spend time with himself, since he finds it pleasant to do so.\u201d While honor has often been understood as a commitment to your external reputation, I want to suggest that honor predominantly safeguards the reputation you have with yourself. We cannot resist the authoritarianism unfolding around us without a commitment to ethical norms of conduct that allow us to remain on good terms with ourselves, and only therefore with others. A sense of honor, in other words, prohibits collaboration with the current regime. Its costs are high, but I want to believe, with Aristotle, that there is no happiness without it. Creating the conditions of possibility for happiness is arguably the core political project for the left. \r\n\r\nIf you are unable to join us in person, please click the link below to join the

His work bridges past and present by unearthing the mythos of American culture through a lens of overlooked figures\u2014from prominent Black abolitionists to frontier laborers.

He is a 2023 Kresge Arts Fellow and a recipient of the Princeton Hodder Fellowship. His work has been exhibited nationally, with pieces held in the permanent collections of the Detroit Institute of Arts, the Studio Museum in Harlem, and the Princeton University Art Museum, among others. His first museum survey, Enriched: Presence & Preservation, opened at the Charles H. Wright Museum and traveled to the California African American Museum.

In this presentation, I will share examples from India and other developing nations that demonstrate how AI-powered solutions are being designed, implemented, and scaled to improve people\u2019s lives, in manner consistent with Kentaro\u2019s observation.\r\n\r\nEach project narrative will explore how specific problems were selected, the significant constraints and opportunities encountered during the design and development phases, and the approaches taken for implementation. The discussion will also address the challenges and possibilities associated with scaling these solutions.\r\n\r\nA central lesson from these experiences is the necessity for what I call \u201cradical collaboration.\u201d This involves bringing together a diverse group of contributors\u2014technology specialists, implementing organizations, subject matter experts, donors, and government agencies. Through these case studies, I will illustrate how such deep collaboration can turn AI-driven innovations into effective solutions for challenges in the developing world.\r\n\r\nMeet P. Anandan:\r\nA renowned researcher in computer vision and artificial intelligence, Anandan\u2019s career spans over 30 years in academia and industry in the US and in India.

Their discussion will be followed by a dessert reception. Virtual attendance option available for Ann Arbor audience. \r\n\r\nDrawing from his upcoming book, \"Hebrew Orientalism: Jewish Engagement with Arabo-Islamic Culture in Late Ottoman and British Palestine\", Dr. Hussein will explore how Jewish writers in late Ottoman and British Mandate Palestine utilized Arabo-Islamic culture. In the decades before the establishment of a Jewish state in 1948, native and immigrant Jews in Palestine mediated between Jewish and Arab cultures while navigating their evolving identities as settler colonists. Hebrew Orientalism challenges the conventional view that Hebrew thinkers were dismissive of Arabo-Islamic culture, revealing how they both adopted and adapted elements of it that enhanced their aims.\r\n\r\nFrom Dr. Hussein: I am a historian specializing in modern Israel-Palestine and the neighboring Arabic-speaking countries of the Middle East (19th-21st centuries), with a focus on the subfield of Jewish-Arab\/Muslim studies. Trained in Judaic and Near Eastern Studies, I employ intellectual history, cultural history, and literary analysis to examine the multifaceted relations\u2014religious, cultural, intellectual, and social\u2014between Jews and Arabs\/Muslims from medieval to modern times. A central aim of my research is to illuminate how Arab and Jewish scholars in the modern Middle East have reappropriated and repurposed their communities\u2019 shared histories and interwoven legacies.

Lopez, Clinical Associate Professor, University of Michigan School of Public Health\r\nFriday, October 17, noon ET\r\nSSW ECC 1840\r\n\r\nIn this talk, William D. Lopez will discuss his latest book, \"Raiding the Heartland: An American Story of Deportation and Resistance,\" and the research behind it. The book chronicles the devastating impacts of immigration raids\u2014and the enduring resistance of immigrant communities in the aftermath.\r\n\r\nAcross the United States, Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) upends small towns and rural communities by staging dramatic raids and rounding up hundreds of people in a single day. These worksite raids fracture families, devastate local economies, and spread fear and trauma that lingers for years. Yet in the wake of these devastating raids, immigrant communities exhibit resistance, resilience, creativity, and an extraordinary determination to rebuild.\r\n\r\nIn this powerful follow-up to his best-seller \"Separated: Family and Community in the Aftermath of an Immigration Raid,\" Lopez brings us into the heart of communities targeted by large-scale ICE enforcement under the Trump administration. These are places where immigrant workers, many of whom have lived in the United States for decades, are suddenly torn from their families and livelihoods. Based on extensive fieldwork, this book highlights the voices of those who have endured these raids: the teachers left to comfort traumatized children, the faith leaders who opened their doors to families in crisis, the organizers who mobilized relief efforts overnight, and the workers and their families who fought for their right to remain.\r\n\r\nAs raids continue to increase across the country, this book is an urgent and deeply human portrait of what these raids leave behind\u2014and the fierce, often unexpected ways communities come together across class, race, and immigration status in their aftermath.\r\n\r\nThe Real-World Perspectives on Poverty Solutions speaker series introduces key issues regarding the causes and consequences of poverty through an in-person and virtual lecture series featuring experts in policy and practice from across the nation. Our goal is to help build a broad community of learners to engage in these issues together.\r\n\r\nThis series is free and open to the public as well as being a one-credit course for U-M students (SWK 503, Course #25751).

However, recent experimental studies show that GJ knockout mice can still maintain heart structure and function, even though GJs are undetectable at IDs. Ephaptic coupling (EpC), an electric field effect across the narrow and tortuous ID, offers an alternative mechanism for cell-to-cell communication when GJs are impaired. Given the current absence of direct experimental evidence for the existence of EpC, modeling studies are essential for understanding its physiological and pathological roles in the heart. Myocardial ischemia, caused by coronary artery blockage, induces major electrophysiological and structural remodeling, including disrupted GJs and steep electrochemical gradients that impair ion channel function and promote arrhythmias. Our research investigates how EpC and ionic electrodiffusion influence conduction and arrhythmogenesis in both healthy and ischemic hearts, with a focus on EpC mechanisms. We developed first two-dimensional (2D) multidomain electrodiffusion model that incorporates EpC, laying the groundwork for future mechanistic studies. Our findings demonstrate that sufficiently strong EpC suppresses the initiation of reentry, leading to absent or nonsustained reentrant activity with a reduced maximum dominant frequency (DF), although it can also introduce transient instability and heterogeneity into cardiac dynamics. In contrast, relatively weak EpC supports sustained reentry, characterized by a stable rotor and high DF. Strong EpC terminates reentry through self-attenuation, while moderate EpC terminates reentry through self-collision. Additionally, strong EpC markedly alters ionic concentrations in the cleft, significantly increasing [K+], nearly depleting [Ca2+], and causing moderate changes in [Na+]. This multidomain electrodiffusion model thus provides new insights into the mechanisms of EpC in the heart.\r\n\r\nContact: Trachette Jackson", "occurrence_notes":null, "guid":"135811-21877294@events.umich.edu", "permalink":"http:\/\/events.umich.edu\/event\/135811", "building_id":"1000166", "building_name":"East Hall", "building_official_id":1000166, "campus_maps_id":"53", "campus_maps_link_path":"east-hall", "campus_maps_link":"https:\/\/maps.studentlife.umich.edu\/building\/east-hall", "room":"1084", "location_name":"East Hall", "has_livestream":0, "cost":"", "tags":["Mathematics"], "website":"", "links":[ ], "sponsors":[ { "group_name":"Applied Interdisciplinary Mathematics (AIM) Seminar - Department of Mathematics", "group_id":"4882", "website":"" }, { "group_name":"Department of Mathematics", "group_id":"3791", "website":"" } ], "image_url":"", "image_description":"", "styled_images":{ "event_thumb":"", "event_large":"", "event_large_2x":"", "event_large_lightbox":"", "group_thumb":"", "group_thumb_square":"", "group_large":"", "group_large_lightbox":"", "event_large_crop":"", "event_list":"", "event_list_2x":"", "event_grid":"", "event_grid_2x":"", "event_feature_large":"", "event_feature_thumb":"" }, "qr_code_url":"http:\/\/events.umich.edu\/event\/135811\/qrcode.png", "occurrence_count":1, "first_occurrence":21877294 } , { "id":"139368-21885339", "datetime_modified":"20250915T132134", "datetime_start":"20251017T153000", "datetime_end":"20251017T163000", "has_end_time":1, "date_start":"2025-10-17", "date_end":"2025-10-17", "time_start":"15:30:00", "time_end":"16:30:00", "time_zone":"America\/Detroit", "event_title":"Smith Lecture: Ettore Biondi", "occurrence_title":"", "combined_title":"Smith Lecture: Ettore Biondi: Distributed acoustic sensing for high-resolution subsurface imaging and earthquake monitoring", "event_subtitle":"Distributed acoustic sensing for high-resolution subsurface imaging and earthquake monitoring", "event_type":"Lecture \/ Discussion", "event_type_id":"13", "description":"Distributed acoustic sensing (DAS) is rapidly becoming a transformative technology for seismological applications, leveraging the widespread and expanding global network of telecommunication fibers.

As executive director of the International Consortium of Investigative Journalists, he has led the largest reporting collaborations in history, producing work that has toppled heads of state, sparked criminal probes and spurred legislative reforms around the world. A former University of Michigan Knight-Wallace fellow, he brings deep experience at the intersection of accountability journalism, power and systemic failures that enable cross-border corruption.\r\n\r\nThis talk examines what global investigative journalism reveals about the limits of public policy and regulation when laws fall short, enforcement fails and bad actors innovate faster than the systems meant to stop them.\r\n\r\n \r\n\r\nSpeaker Bios:\r\n\r\nGerard Ryle is executive director of the International Consortium of Investigative Journalists. He led the worldwide teams of journalists working on the Panama Papers, Paradise Papers and Pandora Papers investigations, the biggest in journalism history. Under his leadership, ICIJ has become one of the best-known journalism brands in the world.\r\n\r\nReporters Without Borders has described Ryle\u2019s work with ICIJ as \"the future of investigative journalism worldwide\" when naming him as one of \"100 information heroes\" of worldwide significance.\r\n\r\nBefore joining as ICIJ\u2019s first non-American director in September 2011, Ryle spent more than 20 years working as an investigative reporter and editor in Australia. His work as a journalist began in his native Ireland. He was later a Knight-Wallace Journalism Fellow at the University of Michigan, and in 2013 he accepted an honorary doctorate from the University of Liege, on behalf of ICIJ.\r\n\r\nAmbassador Susan D.

The project fuses symbolic hair design, ritual healing, and fine art into one unified ecosystem of transformation. Through intentional grooming, visual storytelling, and community activation, this initiative presents identity as terrain\u2014where hair becomes soil, and fine art becomes the bloom. Por\u00e9 will share how his cultural roots shape his work in the garden, on canvas, and as a trained barber\/cultural griot.\r\n\r\nAbout Tzu Por\u00e9:\r\nEducated in the early '90s at College for Creative Studies in Detroit, Michigan, Tzu Por\u00e9 is an award-winning interdisciplinary artist whose work explores the themes of Black Afro-Caribbean Americana humanity, historical socio-economic position, and ancient tradition in the modern world, richly informed by strong community-family bonds.\r\n\r\nWith West Indian origins and a Pan-African world view, Por\u00e9, in 1997, enlisted in the US Army. While serving as an aviation mechanic, Por\u00e9 honed a deeper understanding of methods and processes of fusing materials such as minerals and solids that he has since used to increase the physical texture and visual depth in his paintings.\r\n\r\nShortly after being discharged in 2001, he embarked on an exploration of hair as an artistic medium of texture and sculpture, both on and off the canvas, while moonlighting as a barber in three major African-American markets\u2014Detroit, Philadelphia, and Los Angeles.\r\n\r\nWith nearly three decades of travel and experience, Por\u00e9 reemerges with new work that culminates in the perfect union of interdisciplinary artistry and a vividly dynamic multinational skillset. Por\u00e9's continued evolution as an artist allows him to boldly express with the unconventional creative range of mediums and processes that he uses to confront the challenge of affecting depth within two-dimensional art.\r\n\r\nAbout Kahn Santori Davison\r\nKahn Santori Davison, based in Detroit, is a music writer for *The Metro Times*.

Upon registration, you will receive a calendar invite from Sarah Miller (milsar@umich.edu) with meeting-specific information.\r\n\r\nCoffee Talks are in-person convenings designed to build connections as part of the U-M Water Center's mission and programs; we are not recording sessions at this time.\r\n\r\nPlease register here: https:\/\/graham.umich.edu\/wateratmichigan\/coffee-talks", "occurrence_notes":null, "guid":"136604-21878910@events.umich.edu", "permalink":"http:\/\/events.umich.edu\/event\/136604", "building_id":"1000120", "building_name":"Michigan Union", "building_official_id":1000120, "campus_maps_id":"191", "campus_maps_link_path":"michigan-union", "campus_maps_link":"https:\/\/maps.studentlife.umich.edu\/building\/michigan-union", "room":"2210 ABC Room", "location_name":"Michigan Union", "has_livestream":0, "cost":"", "tags":["Carbon Neutrality","climate","Climate Change","Complex Systems","Energy","energy policy","Engineering","environmental policy","freshwater","great lakes","Naval Architecture and Marine Engineering","north campus","water"], "website":"https:\/\/graham.umich.edu\/wateratmichigan\/coffee-talks", "links":[ { "type":"other", "url":"https:\/\/graham.umich.edu\/wateratmichigan\/coffee-talks", "title":null } ], "sponsors":[ { "group_name":"Graham Sustainability Institute", "group_id":"1807", "website":"http:\/\/graham.umich.edu" } ], "image_url":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/attachments\/2025\/07\/event_136604_original-1.png", "image_description":"Water@Michigan Coffee Talks", "styled_images":{ "event_thumb":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_thumb\/media\/attachments\/2025\/07\/event_136604_original-1.png", "event_large":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_large\/media\/attachments\/2025\/07\/event_136604_original-1.png", "event_large_2x":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_large_2x\/media\/attachments\/2025\/07\/event_136604_original-1.png", "event_large_lightbox":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_large_lightbox\/media\/attachments\/2025\/07\/event_136604_original-1.png", "group_thumb":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/group_thumb\/media\/attachments\/2025\/07\/event_136604_original-1.png", "group_thumb_square":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/group_thumb_square\/media\/attachments\/2025\/07\/event_136604_original-1.png", "group_large":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/group_large\/media\/attachments\/2025\/07\/event_136604_original-1.png", "group_large_lightbox":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/group_large_lightbox\/media\/attachments\/2025\/07\/event_136604_original-1.png", "event_large_crop":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_large_crop\/media\/attachments\/2025\/07\/event_136604_original-1.png", "event_list":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_list\/media\/attachments\/2025\/07\/event_136604_original-1.png", "event_list_2x":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_list_2x\/media\/attachments\/2025\/07\/event_136604_original-1.png", "event_grid":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_grid\/media\/attachments\/2025\/07\/event_136604_original-1.png", "event_grid_2x":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_grid_2x\/media\/attachments\/2025\/07\/event_136604_original-1.png", "event_feature_large":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_feature_large\/media\/attachments\/2025\/07\/event_136604_original-1.png", "event_feature_thumb":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_feature_thumb\/media\/attachments\/2025\/07\/event_136604_original-1.png" }, "qr_code_url":"http:\/\/events.umich.edu\/event\/136604\/qrcode.png", "occurrence_count":1, "first_occurrence":21878910 } , { "id":"137393-21880198", "datetime_modified":"20251015T085849", "datetime_start":"20251021T160000", "datetime_end":"20251021T170000", "has_end_time":1, "date_start":"2025-10-21", "date_end":"2025-10-21", "time_start":"16:00:00", "time_end":"17:00:00", "time_zone":"America\/Detroit", "event_title":"Colloquium: Simion Filip- Measure and Topological Rigidity Beyond Homogeneous Dynamics", "occurrence_title":"", "combined_title":"Colloquium: Simion Filip- Measure and Topological Rigidity Beyond Homogeneous Dynamics: University of Chicago", "event_subtitle":"University of Chicago", "event_type":"Lecture \/ Discussion", "event_type_id":"13", "description":"Abstract: To study the asymptotic behavior of orbits of a dynamical system, one can look at orbit closures or invariant measures. When the underlying system has a homogeneous structure, usually coming from a Lie group, with appropriate assumptions a wide range of rigidity theorems show that ergodic invariant measures and orbit closures have to be well-behaved and can often be classified. I will describe joint work with Brown, Eskin, and Rodriguez Hertz, which establishes rigidity results for quite general smooth dynamical systems having some hyperbolicity. I will also explain some of the necessary assumptions as well as the homogeneous structures that emerge.\r\n\r\nBio: Simion Filip received his PhD from the University of Chicago in 2016 under the supervision of Alex Eskin.

Drawing on his extensive experience, Dr. Egbunike will discuss how African presses navigate systemic barriers to visibility and authority within the global scholarly ecosystem. While open access is frequently championed as a corrective, Dr. Egbunike asks whether it truly addresses marginalization\u2014or might new models be required. His talk will challenge us to examine the complex realities of ownership, access, and equity in knowledge production, and how universities and publishers in Africa are charting their own paths amidst these global challenges. \r\n\r\nThe presentation will be followed by a conversation about knowledge inequality with Dr. Arsim Canolli, associate professor of Cultural Anthropology at the University of Prishtina in Kosova.\r\n\r\nSponsored by the University of Michigan Department of Afroamerican and African Studies (DAAS), the African Studies Center, the University of Michigan Press, and the Association of University Presses.", "occurrence_notes":"Register for Zoom at https:\/\/myumi.ch\/15Geb", "guid":"139485-21885613@events.umich.edu", "permalink":"http:\/\/events.umich.edu\/event\/139485", "building_id":"1000181", "building_name":"Hatcher Graduate Library", "building_official_id":1000181, "campus_maps_id":"65", "campus_maps_link_path":"harlan-h-hatcher-graduate-library", "campus_maps_link":"https:\/\/maps.studentlife.umich.edu\/building\/harlan-h-hatcher-graduate-library", "room":"Hatcher Gallery Event Space", "location_name":"Hatcher Graduate Library", "has_livestream":0, "cost":"", "tags":["africa","Open Access"], "website":"https:\/\/myumi.ch\/15Geb", "links":[ { "type":"livestream", "url":"https:\/\/myumi.ch\/15Geb", "title":"Register" } ], "sponsors":[ { "group_name":"University of Michigan Press", "group_id":"4473", "website":"https:\/\/twitter.com\/UofMPress" }, { "group_name":"Department of Afroamerican and African Studies", "group_id":"1144", "website":"http:\/\/www.lsa.umich.edu\/daas\/" }, { "group_name":"University Library", "group_id":"1186", "website":"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/UMichLibrary\/" }, { "group_name":"African Studies Center", "group_id":"3187", "website":"http:\/\/www.ii.umich.edu\/asc\/" } ], "image_url":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/attachments\/2025\/10\/event_139485_original-1.png", "image_description":"Image of Dr. Nwachukwu Egbunike with the event description", "styled_images":{ "event_thumb":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_thumb\/media\/attachments\/2025\/10\/event_139485_original-1.png", "event_large":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_large\/media\/attachments\/2025\/10\/event_139485_original-1.png", "event_large_2x":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_large_2x\/media\/attachments\/2025\/10\/event_139485_original-1.png", "event_large_lightbox":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_large_lightbox\/media\/attachments\/2025\/10\/event_139485_original-1.png", "group_thumb":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/group_thumb\/media\/attachments\/2025\/10\/event_139485_original-1.png", "group_thumb_square":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/group_thumb_square\/media\/attachments\/2025\/10\/event_139485_original-1.png", "group_large":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/group_large\/media\/attachments\/2025\/10\/event_139485_original-1.png", "group_large_lightbox":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/group_large_lightbox\/media\/attachments\/2025\/10\/event_139485_original-1.png", "event_large_crop":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_large_crop\/media\/attachments\/2025\/10\/event_139485_original-1.png", "event_list":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_list\/media\/attachments\/2025\/10\/event_139485_original-1.png", "event_list_2x":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_list_2x\/media\/attachments\/2025\/10\/event_139485_original-1.png", "event_grid":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_grid\/media\/attachments\/2025\/10\/event_139485_original-1.png", "event_grid_2x":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_grid_2x\/media\/attachments\/2025\/10\/event_139485_original-1.png", "event_feature_large":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_feature_large\/media\/attachments\/2025\/10\/event_139485_original-1.png", "event_feature_thumb":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_feature_thumb\/media\/attachments\/2025\/10\/event_139485_original-1.png" }, "qr_code_url":"http:\/\/events.umich.edu\/event\/139485\/qrcode.png", "occurrence_count":1, "first_occurrence":21885613 } , { "id":"136652-21878938", "datetime_modified":"20251016T101018", "datetime_start":"20251021T163000", "datetime_end":"20251021T180000", "has_end_time":1, "date_start":"2025-10-21", "date_end":"2025-10-21", "time_start":"16:30:00", "time_end":"18:00:00", "time_zone":"America\/Detroit", "event_title":"Shifting Roots: Hair is the Garden We Wear", "occurrence_title":"", "combined_title":"Shifting Roots: Hair is the Garden We Wear: Tzu Por\u00e9 in conversation with Kahn Santori Davison", "event_subtitle":"Tzu Por\u00e9 in conversation with Kahn Santori Davison", "event_type":"Lecture \/ Discussion", "event_type_id":"13", "description":"Detroit barber and artist Tzu Por\u00e9 talks with writer Kahn Santori Davison about Por\u00e9's project Shifting Roots. The project fuses symbolic hair design, ritual healing, and fine art into one unified ecosystem of transformation. Through intentional grooming, visual storytelling, and community activation, this initiative presents identity as terrain\u2014where hair becomes soil, and fine art becomes the bloom. Por\u00e9 will share how his cultural roots shape his work in the garden, on canvas, and as a trained barber\/cultural griot.\r\n\r\nAbout Tzu Por\u00e9:\r\nEducated in the early '90s at College for Creative Studies in Detroit, Michigan, Tzu Por\u00e9 is an award-winning interdisciplinary artist whose work explores the themes of Black Afro-Caribbean Americana humanity, historical socio-economic position, and ancient tradition in the modern world, richly informed by strong community-family bonds.\r\n\r\nWith West Indian origins and a Pan-African world view, Por\u00e9, in 1997, enlisted in the US Army. While serving as an aviation mechanic, Por\u00e9 honed a deeper understanding of methods and processes of fusing materials such as minerals and solids that he has since used to increase the physical texture and visual depth in his paintings.\r\n\r\nShortly after being discharged in 2001, he embarked on an exploration of hair as an artistic medium of texture and sculpture, both on and off the canvas, while moonlighting as a barber in three major African-American markets\u2014Detroit, Philadelphia, and Los Angeles.\r\n\r\nWith nearly three decades of travel and experience, Por\u00e9 reemerges with new work that culminates in the perfect union of interdisciplinary artistry and a vividly dynamic multinational skillset. Por\u00e9's continued evolution as an artist allows him to boldly express with the unconventional creative range of mediums and processes that he uses to confront the challenge of affecting depth within two-dimensional art.\r\n\r\nAbout Kahn Santori Davison\r\nKahn Santori Davison, based in Detroit, is a music writer for *The Metro Times*.

She will examine how, under conditions of institutional capture, media domination, and creeping autocratization, students in Belgrade and Novi Sad employed decentralized tactics to circumvent repression, foster deliberation, and sustain collective agency. Drawing on deliberative democracy, sociology of emotion, contingency theory, and political opportunity structure, Dra\u0161ko will showcase insights from in-depth interviews on how plenums function less as fixed ideologies and more as pragmatic tools for rebuilding trust and effective voice. While acknowledging limits to scalability, she argues that flexible, direct-democratic practices offer critical lessons on challenging entrenched power dynamics in constrained political environments.\r\n \r\n Gazela Pudar Dra\u0161ko is a political sociologist and currently serves as Director at the Institute for Philosophy and Social Theory, University of Belgrade, widely recognized for its commitment to engaged scholarship.

No less fierce today, the debate has been regarded as the purview of museum trustees, government officials, and lawyers. A. E. Stallings, herself a long-time resident of Athens, has seen that the terms of the debate, in part set by poets such as Keats and Byron, owe much to the 19th and 20th century cultural milieus surrounding the presence of the Marbles in Britain\u2014and their long absence from Athens. \r\n\r\nIn *Frieze Frame*, her recently published book, Stallings highlights the \u201cstrange stories and people surrounding the stones,\u201d in the course of which she reveals the wide range of issues that the debate touches on, including \u201caesthetics, Classics, race theory, economics, geopolitics, [and] our shifting climate.\u201d\r\n\r\nA. E. Stallings is the author of three translations and five collections of poetry, for which she has received several awards.

Professor Aliyah will focus on the material Indo-Caribbean qasida songbook and its subcontinental antecedents, including the popular Indo-Muslim text \"Milad-e-Akbar,\" showing that the Caribbean qasida is a devotional song that propagates Indian Islam and preserves Urdu through performances of religious and cultural authenticity while engaging with global revivalist Islam. The qasida is simultaneously conserved and creolized in transliteration and translation, becoming a cultural art form accessible to Afro-Caribbean people as part of Caribbean postcolonial nation-building.\r\n \r\nAliyah Khan is Director of the Global Islamic Studies Center (GISC), and Associate Professor of English, and Afroamerican and African Studies at the University of Michigan, Ann Arbor. She specializes in Islam in the Caribbean and the Americas. Dr. Khan has also presented and taught widely on Muslims in comics and graphic novels. Her award-winning book *Far from Mecca: Globalizing the Muslim Caribbean *(Rutgers UP and University of the West Indies Press 2020), is the first monograph on the comparative literature, history, and music of enslaved African Muslims and indentured Indian Muslims and their descendants in Guyana, Trinidad, and Jamaica.

These filaments are strongly associated with the presence of xray emitting intracluster gas with a short cooling time and with active AGN feedback. The filaments are multiphase, multi temperature; the spectra allow the measurement of speeds and velocity widths to a few kpc\/sec at scales of 0.2\u201d.

McMaster is the host of Battlegrounds: Vital Perspectives on Today\u2019s Challenges and is a regular on GoodFellows, both produced by the Hoover Institution. He is a Distinguished University Fellow at Arizona State University. \r\n\r\nAbout the Vandenberg Lecture:\r\nThe Meijer Family established the Vandenberg Fund in 2017 to honor U.S. Senator Arthur Vandenberg, who served the State of Michigan in the U.S. Senate from 1928-1951. Senator Vandenberg forged bipartisan support for our country's most significant and enduring foreign policies of the twentieth century, including the Truman Doctrine, the Marshall Plan, NATO and the creation of the United Nations. The Vandenberg Lecture Fund has since featured some of the world's leaders in foreign policy including U.S. Secretary of State Antony Blinken and Ambassador Samantha Power, among others.", "occurrence_notes":null, "guid":"138688-21883618@events.umich.edu", "permalink":"http:\/\/events.umich.edu\/event\/138688", "building_id":"1005101", "building_name":"Weill Hall (Ford School)", "building_official_id":1005101, "campus_maps_id":"527", "campus_maps_link_path":"joan-sanford-weill-hall", "campus_maps_link":"https:\/\/maps.studentlife.umich.edu\/building\/joan-sanford-weill-hall", "room":"Annenberg Auditorium (1120)", "location_name":"Weill Hall (Ford School)", "has_livestream":0, "cost":"", "tags":["ford school","ford school of public policy","Foreign Affairs","gerald r. ford school of public policy","History","History And Public Policy","International Affairs","international policy","international relations","Javed Ali","leadership","national security","policy talks","policy talks @ the ford school","Politics","Public Policy","Security","Weiser Diplomacy Center"], "website":"https:\/\/fordschool.umich.edu\/event\/2025\/cascading-crises-and-prospects-peace-hr-mcmaster", "links":[ { "type":"other", "url":"https:\/\/fordschool.umich.edu\/event\/2025\/cascading-crises-and-prospects-peace-hr-mcmaster", "title":"Event Webpage and Livestream" }, { "type":"registration", "url":"https:\/\/forms.gle\/ihXSCSPPkw7k9o6U9", "title":"Event Registration" } ], "sponsors":[ { "group_name":"Gerald R.

Zoom registration is required: http:\/\/myumi.ch\/A1bGx\r\n\r\nBrunei is the last absolutist kingdom in Southeast Asia and the broader Asia-Pacific. Often, Bruneians are portrayed as passive, docile subjects of the Sultan, but the reality is far more nuanced. This lecture reveals a surprising paradox: Bruneians are both citizens and subjects at the same time. I argue that this hybrid status, which I term 'civic subjecthood,' compels Bruneians to constantly negotiate their political lives, balancing their status as subjects with subtle acts of citizenship, often in the form of \u2018quiet activism.\u2019 Tracing the historical development of this dual identity from the twentieth century to the present day, this lecture explores how a composite system of (neo)traditional and modern governance was invented by the British during indirect rule and later inherited by the Sultan upon independence. Ultimately, understanding this process not only provides insight into how people perform political life in Brunei's unique system but also offers a new lens for examining how individuals operate under other authoritarian monarchies in the modern world.\r\n\r\nMu'izz Abdul Khalid is a Research Associate at the Global Awareness and Impact Alliance (GAIA), specializing in authoritarian monarchies and Southeast Asian studies. He brings extensive experience, having served as a 2024-25 Fung Global Fellow at Princeton University and an adjunct lecturer at Universiti Brunei Darussalam (UBD).

In this talk, I will provide an overview of the operator-learning framework and explore its applications to computational problems, with a particular focus on quantum many-body dynamics. We will discuss how traditional machine learning models, such as recurrent neural networks (RNNs), can be adapted to learn operators and predict the nonequilibrium dynamics of quantum many-body systems. Additionally, I will highlight how transformer-based neural operators can be employed to model the self-energy of strongly correlated systems. Through these examples, we aim to showcase the potential of operator learning to tackle key challenges in quantum many-body systems, especially when the dynamics are high-dimensional but not necessarily chaotic.\r\n\r\nContact: Zhiyan Ding", "occurrence_notes":null, "guid":"135812-21877295@events.umich.edu", "permalink":"http:\/\/events.umich.edu\/event\/135812", "building_id":"1000166", "building_name":"East Hall", "building_official_id":1000166, "campus_maps_id":"53", "campus_maps_link_path":"east-hall", "campus_maps_link":"https:\/\/maps.studentlife.umich.edu\/building\/east-hall", "room":"1084", "location_name":"East Hall", "has_livestream":0, "cost":"", "tags":["Mathematics"], "website":"", "links":[ ], "sponsors":[ { "group_name":"Applied Interdisciplinary Mathematics (AIM) Seminar - Department of Mathematics", "group_id":"4882", "website":"" }, { "group_name":"Department of Mathematics", "group_id":"3791", "website":"" } ], "image_url":"", "image_description":"", "styled_images":{ "event_thumb":"", "event_large":"", "event_large_2x":"", "event_large_lightbox":"", "group_thumb":"", "group_thumb_square":"", "group_large":"", "group_large_lightbox":"", "event_large_crop":"", "event_list":"", "event_list_2x":"", "event_grid":"", "event_grid_2x":"", "event_feature_large":"", "event_feature_thumb":"" }, "qr_code_url":"http:\/\/events.umich.edu\/event\/135812\/qrcode.png", "occurrence_count":1, "first_occurrence":21877295 } , { "id":"139369-21885340", "datetime_modified":"20251013T105025", "datetime_start":"20251024T153000", "datetime_end":"20251024T163000", "has_end_time":1, "date_start":"2025-10-24", "date_end":"2025-10-24", "time_start":"15:30:00", "time_end":"16:30:00", "time_zone":"America\/Detroit", "event_title":"Smith Lecture: Pia Viglietti", "occurrence_title":"", "combined_title":"Smith Lecture: Pia Viglietti: Recovery after catastrophe: Lessons from survivors of the Permo-Triassic mass extinction event", "event_subtitle":"Recovery after catastrophe: Lessons from survivors of the Permo-Triassic mass extinction event", "event_type":"Lecture \/ Discussion", "event_type_id":"13", "description":"The Permo-Triassic mass extinction (PTME) profoundly reshaped terrestrial ecosystems, yet the mechanisms driving survival and recovery remain poorly understood. South Africa\u2019s Karoo Basin preserves an exceptional fossil record of this transition, offering a unique opportunity to investigate vertebrate community responses to extreme environmental change. I will discuss some of the hypotheses I am currently testing about the timing and drivers of mass extinction recovery, and some preliminary results. These include some detrital zircon geochronology, which refine the traditional placement of the Permo-Triassic boundary, and support a synchronous extinction event across the basin. The paleobiological insights of the \u201cDistaster taxon\u201d Lystrosaurus, such as juvenile aggregation, burrowing, growth and life history patterns and broad environmental tolerance may have all been factors that contributed to its success during a prolonged biodiversity crisis. Body size analyses support a pronounced \"Lilliput effect,\" with smaller-bodied taxa dominating Early Triassic assemblages, suggesting smaller faunivores and burrowers were robust to the effects of the extinction.

From animal rights activists to domestic violence awareness campaigns, to the thousands that took to the streets in cities throughout the island in July 2021, these activities have been organized and documented primarily through new independent digital means. Many young people, intellectuals and artists have developed a whole sector of unique digital spaces for national debate and dialogue to advocate for a more inclusive Cuba.

But not all infrastructure is created and maintained by public institutions. Some technologies that start life as private luxuries develop into systems that are crucial to public goods: they become infrastructural. In this lecture, Professor Jorgensen explores key questions that these transitions raise for democratic governance. When has a technology become infrastructure? Why does that change what justice requires? Drawing on classical social contract theory and regulatory lessons of the past, she sketches a political philosophy of infrastructure, and asks what telephones and traffic can teach us about governing digital technologies.\r\n\r\nIf you are unable to join us in person, please click the link below to join.\r\n\r\nJoin from PC, Mac, iPad, or

Drawing from my book, Mapping Neshnabe Futurity, I examine how Indigenous knowledge systems\u2014rooted in land-based ethics, intergenerational responsibility, and reciprocal relationships\u2014function as sophisticated technologies for sustaining ecosystems and communities. Central to this approach are both women-led political movements and trickster methodologies. Figures like Nanabozho embody creativity, misdirection, and transformation, showing how experimentation, surprise, and humor can drive innovation. Trickster thinking unsettles linear notions of progress, inviting scientific practices that are adaptive, relational, and open to unexpected outcomes.\r\n\r\nRather than treating \u201ctechnology\u201d as merely mechanical or digital, I highlight how Indigenous worldviews understand technology as relational: practices for maintaining balance between human and more-than-human worlds. Examples include sustainable water stewardship, climate adaptation, and culturally grounded mapping projects that foreground Anishinaabe languages and histories. By bringing Indigenous studies into conversation with STEM fields, this talk argues for futures where scientific inquiry is inseparable from ethics of care and responsibility. Through Indigenous futurisms and trickster methodologies, we can envision and build worlds that are innovative, just, and ecologically thriving.\r\n\r\nBlaire Morseau is a citizen of the Pokagon Band of Potawatomi Indians and Assistant Professor in the Department of Religious Studies at Michigan State University where she is also affiliate faculty in Digital Humanities and American Indian and Indigenous Studies. Before becoming a professor, she worked as her tribe's first full-time archivist, launching an online collections and dictionary website called Wiwkw\u00e9bth\u00ebgen (We-oh-kweb-jug-gin) using Potawatomi cultural protocols of access and traditional knowledge labels. \r\n\r\nAs Co-Director of The Indigenous Chicago Project, Blaire also helped shape the project's components which include oral histories, digital maps, curricular materials and more, that explore the histories of the region, centering Indigenous voices, laying bare stories of settler-colonial harm, and gesturing toward Indigenous futures. She recently released an edited volume featuring the collection of antique birch bark books written by nineteenth century Potawatomi author, Simon Pokagon, titled, As Sacred to Us: Simon Pokagon\u2019s Birch Bark Stories in their Contexts, published by Michigan State University Press.\r\n\r\nDr. Morseau consults on various exhibitions and collaborative programming for archives, libraries, and museums around the country including the Field Museum of Natural History, The Newberry Library, and The Indiana University Museum of Archaeology and Anthropology. Her research interests are in Indigenous science fiction and futurisms, traditional cultural and ecological knowledge, digital heritage, and Native counter-mapping. Her newest book project published in May 2025 with the University of Arizona Press, is titled Mapping Neshnab\u00e9 Futurity: Celestial Currents of Sovereignty in Potawatomi Skies, Lands, and Waters. The monograph investigates how Native peoples in the Great Lakes region leverage their traditional knowledge in environmental activism and in creative works of speculative fiction to reclaim Indigenous space and tribal sovereignty.", "occurrence_notes":null, "guid":"139775-21886036@events.umich.edu", "permalink":"http:\/\/events.umich.edu\/event\/139775", "building_id":"1000152", "building_name":"Tisch Hall", "building_official_id":1000152, "campus_maps_id":"541", "campus_maps_link_path":"james-b-angell-hall-and-tisch-hall", "campus_maps_link":"https:\/\/maps.studentlife.umich.edu\/building\/james-b-angell-hall-and-tisch-hall", "room":"1014", "location_name":"Tisch Hall", "has_livestream":0, "cost":"", "tags":["History","Science","Social Sciences"], "website":"", "links":[ ], "sponsors":[ { "group_name":"Science, Technology and Society", "group_id":"3327", "website":"http:\/\/www.lsa.umich.edu\/sts" }, { "group_name":"School for Environment and Sustainability SEAS", "group_id":"1199", "website":"" } ], "image_url":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/attachments\/2025\/09\/event_139775_original-1.jpg", "image_description":"Portrait of speaker Blaire Morseau", "styled_images":{ "event_thumb":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_thumb\/media\/attachments\/2025\/09\/crop-event_139775_original-1.jpg", "event_large":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_large\/media\/attachments\/2025\/09\/crop-event_139775_original-1.jpg", "event_large_2x":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_large_2x\/media\/attachments\/2025\/09\/crop-event_139775_original-1.jpg", "event_large_lightbox":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_large_lightbox\/media\/attachments\/2025\/09\/crop-event_139775_original-1.jpg", "group_thumb":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/group_thumb\/media\/attachments\/2025\/09\/crop-event_139775_original-1.jpg", "group_thumb_square":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/group_thumb_square\/media\/attachments\/2025\/09\/crop-event_139775_original-1.jpg", "group_large":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/group_large\/media\/attachments\/2025\/09\/crop-event_139775_original-1.jpg", "group_large_lightbox":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/group_large_lightbox\/media\/attachments\/2025\/09\/crop-event_139775_original-1.jpg", "event_large_crop":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_large_crop\/media\/attachments\/2025\/09\/crop-event_139775_original-1.jpg", "event_list":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_list\/media\/attachments\/2025\/09\/crop-event_139775_original-1.jpg", "event_list_2x":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_list_2x\/media\/attachments\/2025\/09\/crop-event_139775_original-1.jpg", "event_grid":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_grid\/media\/attachments\/2025\/09\/crop-event_139775_original-1.jpg", "event_grid_2x":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_grid_2x\/media\/attachments\/2025\/09\/crop-event_139775_original-1.jpg", "event_feature_large":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_feature_large\/media\/attachments\/2025\/09\/crop-event_139775_original-1.jpg", "event_feature_thumb":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_feature_thumb\/media\/attachments\/2025\/09\/crop-event_139775_original-1.jpg" }, "qr_code_url":"http:\/\/events.umich.edu\/event\/139775\/qrcode.png", "occurrence_count":1, "first_occurrence":21886036 } , { "id":"139426-21885466", "datetime_modified":"20251003T160527", "datetime_start":"20251028T100000", "datetime_end":"20251028T110000", "has_end_time":1, "date_start":"2025-10-28", "date_end":"2025-10-28", "time_start":"10:00:00", "time_end":"11:00:00", "time_zone":"America\/Detroit", "event_title":"PhD Information Session", "occurrence_title":"", "combined_title":"PhD Information Session: Interested in pursing a doctorate?

As part of these processes, a dam was planned to be built on the Una River which runs through the Bosnian city of Biha\u0107. This alarmed the city\u2019s residents, culminating in a protest in 2015. Azra Hromad\u017ei\u0107 will address this protest and explore how the threat of dam construction transformed the seemingly apolitical love of the river into a powerful political force around which thousands of people mobilized: riverine citizenship.\r\n \r\n Her talk is based on interviews with stakeholders, archival research, and over ten years of ethnographic investigations. The analysis focuses on the tension between ecological sustainability efforts in favor of renewable energy on the one hand, and citizens\u2019 historically-shaped, deeply-felt love for the river, on the other. Hromad\u017ei\u0107 will examine how the language and promises of green transition often mask the forces of capitalist accumulation that drive this change \u2014 whether in the form of building hydroelectric dams or promoting eco-tourism \u2014 and thus set in motion another cycle of environmental degradation, social dispossession, and economic exploitation.\r\n \r\n Azra Hromad\u017ei\u0107 is Professor of Anthropology and Laura J. and L. Douglas Meredith Professor for Teaching Excellence at Syracuse University. She has research interests in the anthropology of international policy in the context of state-making in postwar Bosnia and Herzegovina. Her first book, *Citizens of an Empty Nation: Youth and State-making in Postwar Bosnia and Herzegovina* (University of Pennsylvania Press), is an ethnographic investigation of the internationally directed postwar intervention policies in Bosnia and Herzegovina and the response of local people, especially youth, to these policy efforts. Several years ago, Hromad\u017ei\u0107 initiated a new project that ethnographically researches aging, care, and social services in the context of postwar and postsocialist Bosnia and Herzegovina. She co-edited (with Monika Palmberger) a volume titled *Care Across Distance: Ethnographic Explorations of Aging and Migration* (Berghahn Books 2018). In 2017, she began a new research project on riverine citizenship, war ecologies, environmental degradation, social dispossession, and economic exploitation in Bosnia-Herzegovina. Her newest book, titled *Riverine Citizenship: A Bosnian City in Love with the River*, was published in 2024 with the Central European University Press.\r\n\r\nAccommodation: If there is anything we can do to make this event accessible to you, please contact us at crees@umich.edu.

A long-standing puzzle concerns the stringy exclusion principle: what bulk mechanism can reproduce the boundary expectation that the chiral primary Hilbert space of the symmetric orbifold contains only a finite number of states at finite N?\r\n\r\nIn this talk, we present a bulk prescription for computing the finite N spectrum of chiral primary states in symmetric orbifolds of T4 or K3. We show that the integer spectrum at any N is reproduced exactly by summing over one-loop supersymmetric partition functions of the IIB theory on (AdS3 x S3)\/Z_k x M4 orbifolds and their spectral flows. Using the worldsheet in the tensionless limit, we verify that the terms appearing in our proposal coincide with the supersymmetric partition functions of these orbifold geometries. These partition functions contribute with alternating signs due to BPS modes with negative conformal dimensions and charges in twisted sectors. The resulting alternating sum collapses via large cancellations to the finite N polynomials observed in symmetric orbifold CFTs, providing a bulk explanation of the stringy exclusion principle. We identify different Stokes sectors where different infinite subsets of these geometries contribute to the path integral, and propose a classification as functions of the chemical potentials.", "occurrence_notes":null, "guid":"139048-21884681@events.umich.edu", "permalink":"http:\/\/events.umich.edu\/event\/139048", "building_id":"1000208", "building_name":"Randall Laboratory", "building_official_id":1000208, "campus_maps_id":"133", "campus_maps_link_path":"harrison-m-randall-laboratory", "campus_maps_link":"https:\/\/maps.studentlife.umich.edu\/building\/harrison-m-randall-laboratory", "room":"3481", "location_name":"Randall Laboratory", "has_livestream":0, "cost":"", "tags":["brown bag","Brown Bag Seminar","Physics","Science"], "website":"", "links":[ ], "sponsors":[ { "group_name":"Leinweber Institute for Theoretical Physics", "group_id":"4286", "website":"" }, { "group_name":"Department of Physics", "group_id":"1965", "website":"" }, { "group_name":"HET Brown Bag Series", "group_id":"3805", "website":"" }, { "group_name":"Leinweber Institute for Theoretical Physics Seminars", "group_id":"4311", "website":"" }, { "group_name":"Leinweber Institute for Theoretical Physics Brown Bag Seminars", "group_id":"4865", "website":"" } ], "image_url":"", "image_description":"", "styled_images":{ "event_thumb":"", "event_large":"", "event_large_2x":"", "event_large_lightbox":"", "group_thumb":"", "group_thumb_square":"", "group_large":"", "group_large_lightbox":"", "event_large_crop":"", "event_list":"", "event_list_2x":"", "event_grid":"", "event_grid_2x":"", "event_feature_large":"", "event_feature_thumb":"" }, "qr_code_url":"http:\/\/events.umich.edu\/event\/139048\/qrcode.png", "occurrence_count":1, "first_occurrence":21884681 } , { "id":"138706-21883715", "datetime_modified":"20250903T101219", "datetime_start":"20251029T190000", "datetime_end":"20251029T200000", "has_end_time":1, "date_start":"2025-10-29", "date_end":"2025-10-29", "time_start":"19:00:00", "time_end":"20:00:00", "time_zone":"America\/Detroit", "event_title":"Faith & Fandom", "occurrence_title":"", "combined_title":"Faith & Fandom", "event_subtitle":"", "event_type":"Lecture \/ Discussion", "event_type_id":"13", "description":"Faith & Fandom takes a look at pop culture media as a modern parable to help us explore themes of faith.

One potential approach for managing tradeoffs associated with Phragmites removal is to use prescribed fire, which is a common method for vegetation removal. The burned biomass, or \u201cbiochar,\u201d produced through this process may increase soil nitrogen removal and carbon and phosphorus storage, which can help to counteract losses in ecosystem services due to Phragmites removal.\r\n\r\nIn collaboration with regional coastal managers, this project compared salt marshes with and without a history of prescribed burns at Delaware National Estuarine Research Reserve and area marshes to better quantify how fire impacts marshes and their biogeochemical ecosystem services. Recognizing that each manager prioritizes marsh ecosystem services differently, the project assessed how prescribed burns influence a range of recreational, physical, biological, and biogeochemical ecosystem services. A collaborative workshop brought together representatives from industry, state, federal, non-profit, and academic sectors for further conversation and to identify challenges and opportunities for effective Phragmites management. In this webinar, the project team will share: 1) an overview of their technical work to establish some of the biogeochemical impacts of prescribed burns in salt marsh ecosystems; 2) the results of their literature review assessing how prescribed burns to remove Phragmites impact a suite of salt marsh ecosystem services; and 3) the outcomes of the collaborative Phragmites management workshop.", "occurrence_notes":null, "guid":"139187-21885017@events.umich.edu", "permalink":"http:\/\/events.umich.edu\/event\/139187", "building_id":"", "building_name":"Off Campus Location", "building_official_id":null, "campus_maps_id":"1", "campus_maps_link_path":"", "campus_maps_link":"", "room":"", "location_name":"Virtual", "has_livestream":1, "livestream_type":"other", "livetream_require_login":0, "livestream_id":"", "livestream_link":"", "cost":"", "tags":["Environment","Sustainability"], "website":"https:\/\/nerrssciencecollaborative.org\/webinar-series", "links":[ { "type":"other", "url":"https:\/\/nerrssciencecollaborative.org\/webinar-series", "title":"Learn More and Register" } ], "sponsors":[ { "group_name":"Graham Sustainability Institute", "group_id":"1807", "website":"http:\/\/graham.umich.edu" } ], "image_url":"", "image_description":"", "styled_images":{ "event_thumb":"", "event_large":"", "event_large_2x":"", "event_large_lightbox":"", "group_thumb":"", "group_thumb_square":"", "group_large":"", "group_large_lightbox":"", "event_large_crop":"", "event_list":"", "event_list_2x":"", "event_grid":"", "event_grid_2x":"", "event_feature_large":"", "event_feature_thumb":"" }, "qr_code_url":"http:\/\/events.umich.edu\/event\/139187\/qrcode.png", "occurrence_count":1, "first_occurrence":21885017 } , { "id":"140910-21887798", "datetime_modified":"20251020T145053", "datetime_start":"20251030T153000", "datetime_end":"20251030T162000", "has_end_time":1, "date_start":"2025-10-30", "date_end":"2025-10-30", "time_start":"15:30:00", "time_end":"16:20:00", "time_zone":"America\/Detroit", "event_title":"The Department of Astronomy 2025-2026 Colloquium Series Presents:", "occurrence_title":"", "combined_title":"The Department of Astronomy 2025-2026 Colloquium Series Presents:: Dr. Rachel Bezanson, Associate Professor, University of Pittsburgh", "event_subtitle":"Dr. Rachel Bezanson, Associate Professor, University of Pittsburgh", "event_type":"Lecture \/ Discussion", "event_type_id":"13", "description":"\"The beginning of the end - charting the emergence and evolution of massive galaxies\"\r\n\r\nGalaxies are extraordinarily complex collections of stars, gas, and dark matter.

Hsieh, assistant professor of anthropology at the University of Michigan.\n\nABSTRACT\n\nSince the earliest implementation of noise-control regulations in 1920s New York City, the governance of noise has exposed the gulf between the meaning and materiality of sound. Scholars of noise have argued that noise-control engineering ignores human hearing by measuring noise using quantitative values. While this assertion appears to close the chapter on the underlying contradictions of noise, an examination of Taiwan's management of low-frequency noise \u2013 sounds that are perceptible to the ear but undetectable by decibel meters \u2013 suggests that noise remains a contested object in terms of its classification in bureaucratic systems and the handling capacity of infrastructure. Drawing on ethnographic fieldwork in Taiwan's Environmental Protection Administration and legislative records around the time of the 1980s democratic transition, I analyze the techno-sensorial mediation between acoustic devices, an apprehensive state apparatus, and embodied citizen hearers that shift the socio-material relations of noise governance into a mode of \"hearing with the state,\u201d one that amplifies the postauthoritarian conditions of modern-day Taiwan.\n\nFACULTY BIO\n\nhttps:\/\/lsa.umich.edu\/anthro\/people\/faculty\/socio-cultural-faculty\/jchsieh.html", "occurrence_notes":null, "guid":"140757-21887579@events.umich.edu", "permalink":"http:\/\/events.umich.edu\/event\/140757", "building_id":"1000440", "building_name":"Earl V.

Through simulations of past warm climates, we can measure shifts in temperature, the hydrological cycle, or the carbon cycle that may offer insights into modern warming trajectories and model biases. This dissertation examines changes in atmospheric and marine processes in response to warming across novel simulations of past climates with environmental proxy data to further understand the Earth system under elevated CO2 levels.\r\n\r\nIn Chapter 2, we investigate the orbital sensitivity of Earth\u2019s hydrological cycle under different CO2 background states within an Early Eocene setting by conducting water isotope-enabled Community Earth System Model (CESM) simulations at 3x and 6x pre-industrial (PI) CO2 levels. This chapter suggests that seasonal hydrological responses to orbital changes are greater than CO2-driven changes in several regions \u2013 with these orbital differences more pronounced in lower CO2 climates \u2013 and, therefore, the orbit in place during proxy archive formation can provide critical context for interpreting oxygen isotopic signals.\r\n\r\nIn Chapter 3, we explore equilibrium climate sensitivity (ECS) across CESM slab ocean model (SOM) simulations of four distinct past climate intervals: the late Cretaceous (~90 Ma), the early Eocene (~55 Ma), the late Oligocene (~25 Ma), and PI. We analyze the contributions of model boundary conditions, like CO2 state, geography, and ocean heat transport (OHT), to ECS differences and decompose the total climate feedback parameter in order to provide new constraints on ECS sensitivity and variability through Earth\u2019s history. \r\n\r\nIn Chapter 4, we simulate the Miocene Climatic Optimum (MCO) at pre-MCO 280 ppm CO2 and MCO 560 ppm CO2 levels using CESM coupled with the Marine Biogeochemistry Library (MARBL) to study phytoplankton community structure and marine primary productivity shifts during this recent warm period. We find that an elevated CO2 level leads to surface warming, sea ice melt, weakened overturning, inhibited upwelling, and changes in nutrient distribution. These consequences result in poleward migration and increased productivity by small phytoplankton and decreased productivity by larger diatoms.\r\n\r\nTogether, the results of this dissertation demonstrate the value of advanced ESM simulations, particularly when analyzed alongside empirical data, in determining potential hydrological, radiative, or biogeochemical alterations in response to elevated atmospheric CO2 concentrations throughout Earth\u2019s history.", "occurrence_notes":null, "guid":"141182-21888303@events.umich.edu", "permalink":"http:\/\/events.umich.edu\/event\/141182", "building_id":"1000188", "building_name":"1100 North University Building", "building_official_id":1000188, "campus_maps_id":"628", "campus_maps_link_path":"1100-north-university-building", "campus_maps_link":"https:\/\/maps.studentlife.umich.edu\/building\/1100-north-university-building", "room":"2540", "location_name":"1100 North University Building", "has_livestream":0, "cost":"", "tags":["Earth And Environmental Sciences"], "website":"", "links":[ ], "sponsors":[ { "group_name":"Earth and Environmental Sciences", "group_id":"3170", "website":"http:\/\/www.lsa.umich.edu\/earth" } ], "image_url":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/attachments\/2025\/10\/event_141182_original-1.jpg", "image_description":"A woman sitting on a log in a lush forest", "styled_images":{ "event_thumb":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_thumb\/media\/attachments\/2025\/10\/event_141182_original-1.jpg", "event_large":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_large\/media\/attachments\/2025\/10\/event_141182_original-1.jpg", "event_large_2x":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_large_2x\/media\/attachments\/2025\/10\/event_141182_original-1.jpg", "event_large_lightbox":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_large_lightbox\/media\/attachments\/2025\/10\/event_141182_original-1.jpg", "group_thumb":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/group_thumb\/media\/attachments\/2025\/10\/event_141182_original-1.jpg", "group_thumb_square":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/group_thumb_square\/media\/attachments\/2025\/10\/event_141182_original-1.jpg", "group_large":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/group_large\/media\/attachments\/2025\/10\/event_141182_original-1.jpg", "group_large_lightbox":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/group_large_lightbox\/media\/attachments\/2025\/10\/event_141182_original-1.jpg", "event_large_crop":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_large_crop\/media\/attachments\/2025\/10\/event_141182_original-1.jpg", "event_list":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_list\/media\/attachments\/2025\/10\/event_141182_original-1.jpg", "event_list_2x":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_list_2x\/media\/attachments\/2025\/10\/event_141182_original-1.jpg", "event_grid":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_grid\/media\/attachments\/2025\/10\/event_141182_original-1.jpg", "event_grid_2x":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_grid_2x\/media\/attachments\/2025\/10\/event_141182_original-1.jpg", "event_feature_large":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_feature_large\/media\/attachments\/2025\/10\/event_141182_original-1.jpg", "event_feature_thumb":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_feature_thumb\/media\/attachments\/2025\/10\/event_141182_original-1.jpg" }, "qr_code_url":"http:\/\/events.umich.edu\/event\/141182\/qrcode.png", "occurrence_count":1, "first_occurrence":21888303 } , { "id":"138517-21883157", "datetime_modified":"20250829T135634", "datetime_start":"20251031T120000", "datetime_end":"20251031T133000", "has_end_time":1, "date_start":"2025-10-31", "date_end":"2025-10-31", "time_start":"12:00:00", "time_end":"13:30:00", "time_zone":"America\/Detroit", "event_title":"Lessons from the Water Warrior on Community Coalition Building for Water Justice", "occurrence_title":"", "combined_title":"Lessons from the Water Warrior on Community Coalition Building for Water Justice: Real-World Perspectives on Poverty Solutions Speaker Series", "event_subtitle":"Real-World Perspectives on Poverty Solutions Speaker Series", "event_type":"Lecture \/ Discussion", "event_type_id":"13", "description":"Lessons from the Water Warrior on Community Coalition Building for Water Justice\r\nMonica Lewis-Patrick, Founder and CEO of We The People of Detroit\r\nFriday, October 31, noon ET\r\nSSW ECC 1840\r\n\r\nAs a community-based grassroots organization, WPD aims to inform, educate, and empower Detroit residents on imperative issues surrounding civil rights, land, water, education, and the democratic process.

The changes in the grain and grain boundary structure of polycrystals highly influence the material\u2019s properties, including, but not limited to, electrical, mechanical, optical, and thermal. Thus, one of the central problems in materials science is to design technologies capable of delivering an arrangement of grains that produces a desired set of material properties.\r\n\r\nA method by which the grain structure can be engineered in polycrystalline materials is through grain growth (coarsening) of a starting structure. The evolution of the grain\/grain boundary structure and associated grain growth is a very complex, multiscale, and multiphysics process. It involves, for example, the dynamics of grain boundaries, triple junctions in 2D (triple curves\/lines and quadruple points in 3D), and the dynamics of lattice misorientations. Therefore, grain growth can be regarded as the anisotropic evolution of a large cellular network and can be described by a set of deterministic local evolution laws for the growth of individual grains combined with stochastic models for the interaction between them. In this talk, we will present recent perspectives on mathematical modeling, numerical simulation, and mathematical analysis of the evolution of the grain boundary network in polycrystalline microstructures. Relevant recent experiments, along with current and future research, will be discussed as well.\r\n\r\nPart of this talk is based on the recent collaboration\/work with Katayun Barmak, Batuhan Bayir, William M Feldman, David Kinderlehrer, Chang (Kamala) Liu, Chun Liu, Masashi Mizuno, Thuong Nguyen, Matthew Patrick, and Jeffrey Rickman, and is partially supported by the DMREF program under DMS-2118172 Award and the Simons Foundation Fellowship Award SFI-MPS-SFM-00010667.\r\n\r\nContact: Selim Esedoglu", "occurrence_notes":null, "guid":"135813-21877296@events.umich.edu", "permalink":"http:\/\/events.umich.edu\/event\/135813", "building_id":"1000166", "building_name":"East Hall", "building_official_id":1000166, "campus_maps_id":"53", "campus_maps_link_path":"east-hall", "campus_maps_link":"https:\/\/maps.studentlife.umich.edu\/building\/east-hall", "room":"1084", "location_name":"East Hall", "has_livestream":0, "cost":"", "tags":["Mathematics"], "website":"", "links":[ ], "sponsors":[ { "group_name":"Applied Interdisciplinary Mathematics (AIM) Seminar - Department of Mathematics", "group_id":"4882", "website":"" }, { "group_name":"Department of Mathematics", "group_id":"3791", "website":"" } ], "image_url":"", "image_description":"", "styled_images":{ "event_thumb":"", "event_large":"", "event_large_2x":"", "event_large_lightbox":"", "group_thumb":"", "group_thumb_square":"", "group_large":"", "group_large_lightbox":"", "event_large_crop":"", "event_list":"", "event_list_2x":"", "event_grid":"", "event_grid_2x":"", "event_feature_large":"", "event_feature_thumb":"" }, "qr_code_url":"http:\/\/events.umich.edu\/event\/135813\/qrcode.png", "occurrence_count":1, "first_occurrence":21877296 } , { "id":"137252-21879996", "datetime_modified":"20251030T100053", "datetime_start":"20251031T150000", "datetime_end":"20251031T160000", "has_end_time":1, "date_start":"2025-10-31", "date_end":"2025-10-31", "time_start":"15:00:00", "time_end":"16:00:00", "time_zone":"America\/Detroit", "event_title":"HET Seminar | Huge Operators in AdS\/CFT and Matrix Models", "occurrence_title":"", "combined_title":"HET Seminar | Huge Operators in AdS\/CFT and Matrix Models: Pedro Viera (Perimeter)", "event_subtitle":"Pedro Viera (Perimeter)", "event_type":"Lecture \/ Discussion", "event_type_id":"13", "description":"Tbd", "occurrence_notes":null, "guid":"137252-21879996@events.umich.edu", "permalink":"http:\/\/events.umich.edu\/event\/137252", "building_id":"1000167", "building_name":"West Hall", "building_official_id":1000167, "campus_maps_id":"163", "campus_maps_link_path":"west-hall", "campus_maps_link":"https:\/\/maps.studentlife.umich.edu\/building\/west-hall", "room":"340", "location_name":"West Hall", "has_livestream":0, "cost":"", "tags":["High Energy Theory Seminar","Lecture","Physics","Science"], "website":"", "links":[ ], "sponsors":[ { "group_name":"Leinweber Institute for Theoretical Physics", "group_id":"4286", "website":"" }, { "group_name":"Department of Physics", "group_id":"1965", "website":"" }, { "group_name":"Leinweber Institute for Theoretical Physics Seminars", "group_id":"4311", "website":"" }, { "group_name":"Leinweber Institute for Theoretical Physics High Energy Theory Seminars", "group_id":"4313", "website":"" } ], "image_url":"", "image_description":"", "styled_images":{ "event_thumb":"", "event_large":"", "event_large_2x":"", "event_large_lightbox":"", "group_thumb":"", "group_thumb_square":"", "group_large":"", "group_large_lightbox":"", "event_large_crop":"", "event_list":"", "event_list_2x":"", "event_grid":"", "event_grid_2x":"", "event_feature_large":"", "event_feature_thumb":"" }, "qr_code_url":"http:\/\/events.umich.edu\/event\/137252\/qrcode.png", "occurrence_count":1, "first_occurrence":21879996 } , { "id":"141083-21888115", "datetime_modified":"20251024T102441", "datetime_start":"20251031T153000", "datetime_end":"20251031T163000", "has_end_time":1, "date_start":"2025-10-31", "date_end":"2025-10-31", "time_start":"15:30:00", "time_end":"16:30:00", "time_zone":"America\/Detroit", "event_title":"Smith Lecture: Emily Troyer", "occurrence_title":"", "combined_title":"Smith Lecture: Emily Troyer: Shedding light on the unseen: Evolutionary insights from the fish fossil record", "event_subtitle":"Shedding light on the unseen: Evolutionary insights from the fish fossil record", "event_type":"Lecture \/ Discussion", "event_type_id":"13", "description":"The fossil record offers unique insights into evolutionary patterns that cannot be inferred from living species alone. Fossils provide a critical temporal element to macroevolutionary studies, allowing us to strengthen phylogenetic inferences, document morphological change through time, and directly calibrate divergence events. My past research lies at the intersection of phylogeny, phenotype, and time, relying extensively on fossil specimens to detect patterns of morphological change over deep time. In one study, using tetraodontiform fishes (pufferfishes and relatives) as a model system, I combined phylogenomic data, paleoclimatic records, and body size measurements from living and fossil species to test long-standing macroevolutionary hypotheses of body size evolution. These analyses revealed that increasing body size correlates with cooling ocean temperatures through time, providing strong support for both Bergmann\u2019s and Cope\u2019s rules in marine fishes. In another study, I used 3D morphological data from exceptionally preserved fossil jaws of early bony fishes (423\u2013359 Ma) to uncover an adaptive radiation that was driven primarily by lungfishes and coelacanths, standing in contrast to their \u201cliving fossil\u201d descendants of today. Together, these studies highlight how fossils capture often unseen evolutionary dynamics and underscore the importance of paleontological data for understanding evolutionary diversification.", "occurrence_notes":null, "guid":"141083-21888115@events.umich.edu", "permalink":"http:\/\/events.umich.edu\/event\/141083", "building_id":"1000188", "building_name":"1100 North University Building", "building_official_id":1000188, "campus_maps_id":"628", "campus_maps_link_path":"1100-north-university-building", "campus_maps_link":"https:\/\/maps.studentlife.umich.edu\/building\/1100-north-university-building", "room":"1528", "location_name":"1100 North University Building", "has_livestream":0, "cost":"", "tags":["Earth And Environmental Sciences"], "website":"", "links":[ ], "sponsors":[ { "group_name":"Earth and Environmental Sciences", "group_id":"3170", "website":"http:\/\/www.lsa.umich.edu\/earth" } ], "image_url":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/attachments\/2025\/10\/event_141083_original-1.jpg", "image_description":"Photograph of Emily Troyer wearing a grey zip-up pullover, with scientific specimens in jars in the background.", "styled_images":{ "event_thumb":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_thumb\/media\/attachments\/2025\/10\/event_141083_original-1.jpg", "event_large":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_large\/media\/attachments\/2025\/10\/event_141083_original-1.jpg", "event_large_2x":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_large_2x\/media\/attachments\/2025\/10\/event_141083_original-1.jpg", "event_large_lightbox":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_large_lightbox\/media\/attachments\/2025\/10\/event_141083_original-1.jpg", "group_thumb":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/group_thumb\/media\/attachments\/2025\/10\/event_141083_original-1.jpg", "group_thumb_square":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/group_thumb_square\/media\/attachments\/2025\/10\/event_141083_original-1.jpg", "group_large":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/group_large\/media\/attachments\/2025\/10\/event_141083_original-1.jpg", "group_large_lightbox":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/group_large_lightbox\/media\/attachments\/2025\/10\/event_141083_original-1.jpg", "event_large_crop":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_large_crop\/media\/attachments\/2025\/10\/event_141083_original-1.jpg", "event_list":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_list\/media\/attachments\/2025\/10\/event_141083_original-1.jpg", "event_list_2x":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_list_2x\/media\/attachments\/2025\/10\/event_141083_original-1.jpg", "event_grid":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_grid\/media\/attachments\/2025\/10\/event_141083_original-1.jpg", "event_grid_2x":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_grid_2x\/media\/attachments\/2025\/10\/event_141083_original-1.jpg", "event_feature_large":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_feature_large\/media\/attachments\/2025\/10\/event_141083_original-1.jpg", "event_feature_thumb":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_feature_thumb\/media\/attachments\/2025\/10\/event_141083_original-1.jpg" }, "qr_code_url":"http:\/\/events.umich.edu\/event\/141083\/qrcode.png", "occurrence_count":1, "first_occurrence":21888115 } , { "id":"138283-21882714", "datetime_modified":"20251023T192507", "datetime_start":"20251103T180000", "datetime_end":"20251103T200000", "has_end_time":1, "date_start":"2025-11-03", "date_end":"2025-11-03", "time_start":"18:00:00", "time_end":"20:00:00", "time_zone":"America\/Detroit", "event_title":"Peril & Promise: A Conversation on College Leadership", "occurrence_title":"", "combined_title":"Peril & Promise: A Conversation on College Leadership: with Drs.

Lee and other Korean modernists were greatly inspired by the works of Diego Rivera, Jos\u00e9 Clemente Orozco, and David Alfaro Siqueiros, whose monumental works, like Rivera\u2019s iconic Detroit Industry murals at the Detroit Institute of Arts, still speak powerfully today.\r\n \r\n Through vivid comparisons, Jinyoung Anna Jin will trace how the Mexican muralists\u2019 bold public art inspired Lee\u2019s own vision for a national art (minjok misool) for Korea rooted in resistance, solidarity, and the everyday lives of ordinary people. By revealing this overlooked transnational connection, this talk invites the audience to see Lee\u2019s legacy\u2014and modern Korean art more broadly\u2014anew as part of a larger global conversation about how art can stand on the front lines of history.\r\n \r\n Jinyoung A. Jin, Ph.D., is the Director of Asian Art and Culture at Stony Brook University\u2019s Charles B. Wang Center, where she curates exhibitions and public programs that explore Asian art, visual culture, and transnational histories. Passionate about connecting diverse audiences with understudied narratives, she fosters dialogue on how art, history, and politics shape our understanding of the world. Her curatorial practice critically engages the intersections of tradition and modernity across Asia, examining how visual culture navigates memory, trauma, ritual, and everyday life. Jin holds a B.A. in Art Theory from Hongik University, an M.A. in Art History from Columbia University, and a Ph.D. in Cultural Analysis and Theory from Stony Brook University. She also serves on the community advisory board of PBS Thirteen\/WLIW.\r\n\r\nIf there is anything we can do to make this event accessible to you, please contact us at ncks.info@umich.edu.

A close colleague of the slain opposition leader Boris Nemtsov, he served as deputy leader of the People\u2019s Freedom Party and was a candidate for the Russian Parliament. Leading diplomatic efforts on behalf of the opposition, Kara-Murza played a key role in the adoption of Magnitsky sanctions against top Russian officials by the United States, United Kingdom, European Union, Canada, and Australia. Magnitsky sanctions are governmental sanctions against foreign individuals who have committed human rights abuses or been involved in significant corruption. For this work he was twice poisoned and left in a coma; a joint media investigation by Bellingcat, The Insider, and Der Spiegel has determined that officers of the Russian Federal Security Services (FSB) were behind the attacks.\r\n\r\nIn April 2022, Kara-Murza was arrested in Moscow for publicly denouncing the invasion of Ukraine and war crimes committed by Russian forces. Following a closed-door trial at the Moscow City Court, he was sentenced to 25 years for \u201chigh treason\u201d and kept in solitary confinement at a maximum-security prison in Siberia. He was released in August 2024 as part of the largest East-West prisoner exchange since the Cold War negotiated by the U.S. and German governments.\r\n\r\nKara-Murza is a contributing writer at the Washington Post, winning the 2024 Pulitzer Prize for his columns written from prison, and has previously worked for Echo of Moscow, BBC, RTVi, Kommersant, World Affairs, and other media organizations. He has directed three documentary films and is the author or contributor to several books on Russian history and politics.\r\n\r\nKara-Murza serves as vice-president at the Free Russia Foundation, as senior advisor at Human Rights First, and as senior fellow at the Raoul Wallenberg Centre for Human Rights in Montreal. He was the founding chairman of the Boris Nemtsov Foundation for Freedom and has led successful international efforts to commemorate Nemtsov, including with street designations in Washington, D.C. and London. Kara-Murza is a recipient of several awards, including the Council of Europe\u2019s V\u00e1clav Havel Human Rights Prize, and is an honorary fellow at Trinity Hall, Cambridge. He holds an M.A. (Cantab.) in History from Cambridge. He is married, with three children.\r\n\r\n\u201cLike Raoul Wallenberg, Vladimir Kara-Murza has dedicated his life to defending democracy and human rights, exhibiting extraordinary courage and vision,\u201d said Sioban Harlow, chair of the Wallenberg Medal Executive Committee and Professor Emerita of Epidemiology, Obstetrics and Gynecology, and Global Public Health.\r\n______________________________\r\n\r\nThe Wallenberg Medal and Lecture ceremony is free and open to the public. For event inquiries and requests for event accommodations, please contact wallenberglecture@umich.edu or 734-936-3973.\r\n\r\n______________________________\r\n\r\nThe Wallenberg Medal and Lecture honors the legacy of Raoul Wallenberg who graduated from U-M\u2019s College of Architecture in 1935 and saved the lives of tens of thousands of Hungarian Jews near the end of World War II. In 1944, at the request of Jewish organizations and the American War Refugee Board, the Swedish Foreign Ministry sent Wallenberg on a rescue mission to Budapest. Over the course of six months, Wallenberg issued thousands of protective passports and placed many thousands of Jews in safe houses throughout the besieged city. He confronted Hungarian and German forces to secure the release of Jews, whom he claimed were under Swedish protection, and saved more than 80,000 lives.\r\n\r\nAdministered by the University\u2019s Donia Human Rights Center, U-M awards the Wallenberg Medal to those who, through their actions and personal commitment, perpetuate Wallenberg\u2019s extraordinary accomplishments and human values, and demonstrate the capacity of the human spirit to stand up for the helpless, to defend the integrity of the powerless, and to speak out on behalf of the voiceless.", "occurrence_notes":null,

Center for World Performance Studies (CWPS) presents a guest scholar lecture by ethnomusicologist and curator Dr. Jennifer Kyker.\n\nThe Chicago Dzviti Photograph Collection presents the work of Chicago Dzviti (1961-1995), a pioneering Zimbabwean photographer whose archive offers an extensive visual record of Zimbabwean social, cultural, and musical life. In this talk, Dr. Kyker discusses her work as curator of the collection, including the touring exhibit \"Portrait of Zimbabwe.\" She focuses particularly on Chicago Dzviti's intimate portrayals of Zimbabwean musicians, which make up a significant portion of the collection. As curator, Dr. Kyker's ethnographic approach explores relationships between visual culture and sound, using collaborative methods such as feedback interviews with musicians, curated playlists, and live performances by contemporary artists. Throughout, Dr. Kyker emphasizes how the Zimbabwean philosophy of hunhu\/ubuntu, which articulates a vision of human identity predicated upon moral relationships between the self and others, is reflected in Chicago Dzviti's photographs as well as in the musical traditions they portray.\n\nJENNIFER W. KYKER is Professor of Ethnomusicology in the Alfred Satz Music Department at the University of Rochester. Kyker is a former ACLS Fellow and three-time Fulbright Fellow. As a Fulbright Scholar her most recent project, \u201cPortrait of Zimbabwe\/Mifananidzo yeZimbabwe,\u201d is a photographic exhibit co-curated with Fadzai Veronica Muchemwa at the National Gallery of Zimbabwe, and which is currently touring at venues throughout Zimbabwe.

And yet, the heavy influx of migrant labor from particular regions in South Asia to the Gulf states remains unabated. This leads to the question: If things are so bad, then why do migrants keep coming? Some scholars have answered this question by putting forth an argument that migrants paint a rosy picture of Gulf life in their home cities, and, in so doing, funnel their compatriots into exploitative labor arrangements abroad. Do migrants not tell stories of hardship in home cities? If they do, why do those stories not dissuade aspiring migrants? I contend that centering prospective emigrant as discerning listeners helps us understand both the nuanced motivations for migration and why returnees tell the kinds of stories they do. I attend to the circulatory contexts of migrants\u2019 Gulf stories in a small city in Pakistan, and the gendered repertoire of characterological figures through which listeners evaluate them. Decades of circulation of men from this Pakistani city to the Gulf and back has produced going through the storied trials of Gulf life as a rite of passage to the status of adult manhood and masculine respectability. The storytelling about Gulf life in Pakistan is thereby structured by a masculinist discourse with the following idea at its core: since Gulf work is harsh, only hard men are suited for it. This Gulf gauntlet subsumes stories of hardship within its own lore. The harder the rite, the higher mettled the passenger.\r\n \r\n Salman Adil Hussain is a historical anthropologist of Indian Ocean mobilities, and South Asian diasporas. His research specializations include borders and belonging, masculinity, transnational labor, migrant racialization, autoethnography, storytelling, humor, and kinship. His dissertation, Migrants at Home: Gulf Migrations, Masculinities, and the Politics of Return in Pakistan, is the first monograph on Pakistani migrations to the Gulf in the past 30 years. It studies how masculinity structures key processes of migrations: migration brokerage, sociality, self-fashioning, and return mobilities. His next project explores the racialization and surveillance of migrants\u2014South Asians in the Gulf and U.S. Muslims\u2014in a comparative framework.\r\n\r\nRSVP: https:\/\/myumi.ch\/w9QNx\r\n\r\n Co-sponsor: GISC\r\n \r\n\r\nAccommodation: If there is anything we can do to make this event accessible to you, please contact us.

Hall thrusters (HTs) followed a similarly long trajectory from the lab to deep-space flight. Since the 1970s thousands of HTs have flown in near-Earth orbit, yet it was not until NASA\u2019s Psyche mission in 2023 that HTs were used as primary propulsion beyond lunar orbit. Two challenges contributed to this protracted path. First, HTs are low-thrust, high-exhaust-speed devices that achieve large \u0394Vs but must operate for years in space. Flight qualification in vacuum facilities can be prohibitively costly and time-consuming. Challenges in qualifying a technology by test alone are not unique to electric propulsion (EP). Certification of the U.S. nuclear weapons stockpile now relies on physics-based modeling and simulations (M&S) requiring large investments. The second challenge is that investment in M&S for EP has been limited. Their inherently complex physics prohibited the advancement of first-principles M&S tools to a level that could make major impact on development. Instead, technology advancement depended largely on empirical scaling and laboratory testing. A focused effort on physics-based M&S began in the 2000\u2019s in the EP Group of the Jet Propulsion Laboratory (JPL). In this presentation I will highlight achievements made at JPL in the M&S of plasmas in EP, and discuss their impact on development, maturation and flight qualification of EP for NASA deep-space missions.\r\n\r\nAbout the Speaker: \r\nDr. Ioannis (Yiangos) G. Mikellides is a Senior Research Scientist and Principal Engineer at NASA\u2019s Jet Propulsion Laboratory. He received his Ph.D. in Aeronautical and Astronautical Engineering from The Ohio State University. In over three decades his theoretical investigations of applied plasma physics, supported by extensive numerical simulation, have spanned applications as diverse as high-pressure discharge chambers and hypersonic nozzles, ablative thrusters, magnetic nozzles in fusion propulsion, MHD shocks, rarefied EP plumes and astrophysical plasmas. He has developed OrCa2D and Hall2De, two novel scientific plasma codes that have been supporting the qualification of hollow cathodes and HTs for NASA\u2019s EP missions since he joined JPL in 2003. Hall2De has also been licensed to various institutions of government, academia and the private sector nationwide. His theoretical work has led to notable advances in our understanding of EP plasmas such as the prediction of ion acoustic turbulence in cathode discharges and the development of the first principles of magnetic shielding in HTs. He has published more than 60 refereed articles in aerospace engineering, applied physics, planetary\/space sciences and astrophysics journals, and co-authored the 2023 book \u201cFundamentals of Electric Propulsion\u201d. He is a Fellow of the AIAA and the recipient of multiple recognitions including the NASA Exceptional Engineering Achievement Medal and the JPL Lew Allen and Edward Stone Awards.\r\n\r\nThe seminar will be conducted in person, with livestream in Zoom.

While many view immigration as a strength and support pathways to citizenship, others see immigration as a challenge to national security and economic stability. According to the Pew Research Center, public opinion is evenly split over the use of state and local law enforcement in deportation efforts. However, the majority of Americans disapprove of ending Temporary Protected Status (TPS) for many immigrants who came to the United States escaping war or other disasters at home. Additionally, 54% of Americans disapprove of increasing Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) raids on workplaces where people who are in the U.S. illegally may be working. Immigration enforcement has been intensified, including renewed efforts to roll back protections like DACA, increase deportations and border security, and reinstate travel bans and restrict asylum pathways. The political climate has led to increased fear and caution among immigrant communities. While the state of Michigan prohibits its law enforcement from stopping individuals based on immigration status, some state legislators are pushing for increased state and federal cooperation.\r\n\r\nIn this panel, participants will discuss the impact of intensified immigration enforcement on immigrant communities specifically, and the University of Michigan community generally. Panelists will also answer questions such as \u201cHow can we support individuals from immigrant backgrounds?\u201d", "occurrence_notes":null, "guid":"140946-21887855@events.umich.edu", "permalink":"http:\/\/events.umich.edu\/event\/140946", "building_id":"1000166", "building_name":"East Hall", "building_official_id":1000166, "campus_maps_id":"53", "campus_maps_link_path":"east-hall", "campus_maps_link":"https:\/\/maps.studentlife.umich.edu\/building\/east-hall", "room":"4448", "location_name":"East Hall", "has_livestream":0, "cost":"", "tags":["Diversity","Immigration","Psychology","Psychology Departmental","Public Policy"], "website":"", "links":[ ], "sponsors":[ { "group_name":"Department of Psychology", "group_id":"3615", "website":"http:\/\/www.lsa.umich.edu\/psych\/" } ], "image_url":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/attachments\/2025\/10\/event_140946_original-1.jpg", "image_description":"Image of a rusty section of the US\/Mexico border wall with a facing American flag painted on it", "styled_images":{ "event_thumb":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_thumb\/media\/attachments\/2025\/10\/event_140946_original-1.jpg", "event_large":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_large\/media\/attachments\/2025\/10\/event_140946_original-1.jpg", "event_large_2x":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_large_2x\/media\/attachments\/2025\/10\/event_140946_original-1.jpg", "event_large_lightbox":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_large_lightbox\/media\/attachments\/2025\/10\/event_140946_original-1.jpg", "group_thumb":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/group_thumb\/media\/attachments\/2025\/10\/event_140946_original-1.jpg", "group_thumb_square":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/group_thumb_square\/media\/attachments\/2025\/10\/event_140946_original-1.jpg", "group_large":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/group_large\/media\/attachments\/2025\/10\/event_140946_original-1.jpg", "group_large_lightbox":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/group_large_lightbox\/media\/attachments\/2025\/10\/event_140946_original-1.jpg", "event_large_crop":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_large_crop\/media\/attachments\/2025\/10\/event_140946_original-1.jpg", "event_list":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_list\/media\/attachments\/2025\/10\/event_140946_original-1.jpg", "event_list_2x":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_list_2x\/media\/attachments\/2025\/10\/event_140946_original-1.jpg", "event_grid":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_grid\/media\/attachments\/2025\/10\/event_140946_original-1.jpg", "event_grid_2x":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_grid_2x\/media\/attachments\/2025\/10\/event_140946_original-1.jpg", "event_feature_large":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_feature_large\/media\/attachments\/2025\/10\/event_140946_original-1.jpg", "event_feature_thumb":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_feature_thumb\/media\/attachments\/2025\/10\/event_140946_original-1.jpg" }, "qr_code_url":"http:\/\/events.umich.edu\/event\/140946\/qrcode.png", "occurrence_count":1, "first_occurrence":21887855 } , { "id":"141190-21888349", "datetime_modified":"20251027T143151", "datetime_start":"20251106T153000", "datetime_end":"20251106T162000", "has_end_time":1, "date_start":"2025-11-06", "date_end":"2025-11-06", "time_start":"15:30:00", "time_end":"16:20:00", "time_zone":"America\/Detroit", "event_title":"The Department of Astronomy 2025-2026 Colloquium Series Presents:", "occurrence_title":"", "combined_title":"The Department of Astronomy 2025-2026 Colloquium Series Presents:: Dr. Seiji Fujimoto, Assistant Professor, University of Toronto", "event_subtitle":"Dr. Seiji Fujimoto, Assistant Professor, University of Toronto", "event_type":"Lecture \/ Discussion", "event_type_id":"13", "description":"\"Quest for the Most Distant Universe \u2013 Today and Beyond\"\r\n\r\nUncovering and characterizing the earliest systems in the universe is essential for addressing fundamental cosmological questions \u2014 including the emergence of the first galaxies and black holes (BHs), and the timeline of cosmic reionization. The advent of JWST has revolutionized our ability to detect and study galaxies from these early epochs, now extending the frontier of confirmed systems to z ~ 20. At the same time, submm\/mm observations with ALMA are providing complementary insights into the cold dust and gas components that trace early star formation. In this talk, I will present my recent efforts to explore the most distant universe through a synergistic approach combining JWST, ALMA, and gravitational lensing, enabling the most sensitive and comprehensive investigations of the earliest phases of galaxy formation. My systematic JWST spectroscopic survey confirms the high abundance of z > 9 galaxies previously suggested by photometric studies, and I will discuss possible origins of this surprising excess based on our initial characterizations. I will also introduce the first infrared luminosity function derived from the largest faint ALMA sample ever compiled, allowing a direct estimate of the total (unobscured + dust-obscured) cosmic star formation history up to z ~ 8. Our joint JWST and ALMA deep follow-up observations of a strongly lensed early galaxy reveal that what appears as a single disk-like structure is resolved into at least 15 individual young massive star clusters with effective radii of 10\u201350 pc, dominating ~70% of the galaxy\u2019s total flux and embedded within a smooth rotating disk (V\/\u03c3 ~ 3). These findings suggest that stellar feedback is remarkably weak at these epochs, providing a plausible explanation for the enhanced star formation activity inferred from our rest-UV and FIR studies. At the end of my talk, I will also introduce my ~300-hour Cycle 4+5 JWST treasury program, Vast Exploration for Nascent, Unexplored Sources (VENUS) \u2014 JWST\u2019s first wide lensing-cluster survey. Designed to fully harness the power of gravitational lensing, VENUS aims to uncover the faintest and earliest galaxies across cosmic time, and I will present some of its initial outcomes showcasing the transformative potential of this new endeavor.", "occurrence_notes":null, "guid":"141190-21888349@events.umich.edu", "permalink":"http:\/\/events.umich.edu\/event\/141190", "building_id":"1000167", "building_name":"West Hall", "building_official_id":1000167, "campus_maps_id":"163", "campus_maps_link_path":"west-hall", "campus_maps_link":"https:\/\/maps.studentlife.umich.edu\/building\/west-hall", "room":"411", "location_name":"West Hall", "has_livestream":0, "cost":"", "tags":["astronomy","astrophysics"], "website":"https:\/\/lsa.umich.edu\/astro", "links":[ { "type":"other", "url":"https:\/\/lsa.umich.edu\/astro", "title":null } ], "sponsors":[ { "group_name":"Department of Astronomy", "group_id":"1178", "website":"" }, { "group_name":"Department of Physics", "group_id":"1965", "website":"" } ], "image_url":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/attachments\/2025\/10\/event_141190_original-1.png", "image_description":"Dr. Seiji Fujimoto", "styled_images":{ "event_thumb":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_thumb\/media\/attachments\/2025\/10\/event_141190_original-1.png", "event_large":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_large\/media\/attachments\/2025\/10\/event_141190_original-1.png", "event_large_2x":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_large_2x\/media\/attachments\/2025\/10\/event_141190_original-1.png", "event_large_lightbox":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_large_lightbox\/media\/attachments\/2025\/10\/event_141190_original-1.png", "group_thumb":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/group_thumb\/media\/attachments\/2025\/10\/event_141190_original-1.png", "group_thumb_square":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/group_thumb_square\/media\/attachments\/2025\/10\/event_141190_original-1.png", "group_large":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/group_large\/media\/attachments\/2025\/10\/event_141190_original-1.png", "group_large_lightbox":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/group_large_lightbox\/media\/attachments\/2025\/10\/event_141190_original-1.png", "event_large_crop":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_large_crop\/media\/attachments\/2025\/10\/event_141190_original-1.png", "event_list":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_list\/media\/attachments\/2025\/10\/event_141190_original-1.png", "event_list_2x":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_list_2x\/media\/attachments\/2025\/10\/event_141190_original-1.png", "event_grid":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_grid\/media\/attachments\/2025\/10\/event_141190_original-1.png", "event_grid_2x":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_grid_2x\/media\/attachments\/2025\/10\/event_141190_original-1.png", "event_feature_large":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_feature_large\/media\/attachments\/2025\/10\/event_141190_original-1.png", "event_feature_thumb":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_feature_thumb\/media\/attachments\/2025\/10\/event_141190_original-1.png" }, "qr_code_url":"http:\/\/events.umich.edu\/event\/141190\/qrcode.png", "occurrence_count":1, "first_occurrence":21888349 } , { "id":"136601-21878906", "datetime_modified":"20251030T184203", "datetime_start":"20251106T160000", "datetime_end":"20251106T173000", "has_end_time":1, "date_start":"2025-11-06", "date_end":"2025-11-06", "time_start":"16:00:00", "time_end":"17:30:00", "time_zone":"America\/Detroit", "event_title":"DISCO Network Presents - Diaspora Wars and Going 50\/50: Sowing Disunity in Black Communities Through Digital Propaganda", "occurrence_title":"", "combined_title":"DISCO Network Presents - Diaspora Wars and Going 50\/50: Sowing Disunity in Black Communities Through Digital Propaganda: Brooklyne Gipson, Jamilah Lemieux, and AE Stevenson in conversation with Catherine Knight Steele", "event_subtitle":"Brooklyne Gipson, Jamilah Lemieux, and AE Stevenson in conversation with Catherine Knight Steele", "event_type":"Lecture \/ Discussion", "event_type_id":"13", "description":"This panel brings together Black feminist scholars, writers, and public intellectuals to examine how and why debates about gender, sexuality, and nationality consistently emerge as top topics on social media platforms within Black discursive communities.

Andrews, Harvard University", "event_type":"Lecture \/ Discussion", "event_type_id":"13", "description":"This lecture presents the results of an ongoing five-year campaign of excavation in the Roman town of Falerii Novi in the Middle Tiber Valley north of Rome. The Falerii Novi Project, which began in 2021, has undertaken the first scientific excavations in a city famously founded after Romans sacked the nearby Faliscan city of Falerii Veteres and relocated its residents in 241 BCE. The partial urban plan of the site has been spectacularly revealed by geophysical remote sensing, but our excavations are providing a refined chronology for the town\u2019s occupation, which was much more enduring than previously assumed; surprising evidence for patterns of trade, economic activity, and environmental interactions; and a comprehensive analysis of the city\u2019s residential fabric. \r\n\r\nInstead of focusing on the city\u2019s monumental and civic structures, as is often the case for urban investigations, our research questions are aimed at understanding processes of urban development from the bottom up. We have therefore focused on mundane spaces, such as shops, houses, and roadside bars, to provide a more complete picture of Roman urbanism beyond elite and administrative spaces. The project is arguably the most methodologically diverse investigation of a Roman town to date.\r\n\r\nMargaret M. Andrews is assistant professor of classics at Harvard University and codirector of the Falerii Novi Project. \r\n\r\nThis event is free and open to the public, sponsored by the Archaeological Institute of America.

However, the training of LLMs has raised significant privacy and legal concerns, particularly regarding the inclusion of copyrighted materials in their training data without proper attribution or licensing, which falls under the broader issue of data misappropriation. In this article, we focus on a specific problem of data misappropriation detection, namely, to determine whether a given LLM has incorporated data generated by another LLM. To address this issue, we propose embedding watermarks into the copyrighted training data and formulating the detection of data misappropriation as a hypothesis testing problem. We develop a general statistical testing framework, construct a pivotal statistic, determine the optimal rejection threshold, and explicitly control the type I and type II errors. Furthermore, we establish the asymptotic optimality properties of the proposed tests, and demonstrate its empirical effectiveness through intensive numerical experiments.", "occurrence_notes":null, "guid":"141339-21888653@events.umich.edu", "permalink":"http:\/\/events.umich.edu\/event\/141339", "building_id":"1000167", "building_name":"West Hall", "building_official_id":1000167, "campus_maps_id":"163", "campus_maps_link_path":"west-hall", "campus_maps_link":"https:\/\/maps.studentlife.umich.edu\/building\/west-hall", "room":"340", "location_name":"West Hall", "has_livestream":0, "cost":"", "tags":["seminar"], "website":"https:\/\/lsa.umich.edu\/stats", "links":[ { "type":"other", "url":"https:\/\/lsa.umich.edu\/stats", "title":null } ], "sponsors":[ { "group_name":"Department of Statistics", "group_id":"3473", "website":"" }, { "group_name":"Department of Statistics Seminar Series", "group_id":"3585", "website":"" } ], "image_url":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/attachments\/2025\/10\/event_141339_original-1.jpg", "image_description":"Linjun Zhang", "styled_images":{ "event_thumb":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_thumb\/media\/attachments\/2025\/10\/event_141339_original-1.jpg", "event_large":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_large\/media\/attachments\/2025\/10\/event_141339_original-1.jpg", "event_large_2x":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_large_2x\/media\/attachments\/2025\/10\/event_141339_original-1.jpg", "event_large_lightbox":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_large_lightbox\/media\/attachments\/2025\/10\/event_141339_original-1.jpg", "group_thumb":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/group_thumb\/media\/attachments\/2025\/10\/event_141339_original-1.jpg", "group_thumb_square":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/group_thumb_square\/media\/attachments\/2025\/10\/event_141339_original-1.jpg", "group_large":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/group_large\/media\/attachments\/2025\/10\/event_141339_original-1.jpg", "group_large_lightbox":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/group_large_lightbox\/media\/attachments\/2025\/10\/event_141339_original-1.jpg", "event_large_crop":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_large_crop\/media\/attachments\/2025\/10\/event_141339_original-1.jpg", "event_list":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_list\/media\/attachments\/2025\/10\/event_141339_original-1.jpg", "event_list_2x":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_list_2x\/media\/attachments\/2025\/10\/event_141339_original-1.jpg", "event_grid":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_grid\/media\/attachments\/2025\/10\/event_141339_original-1.jpg", "event_grid_2x":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_grid_2x\/media\/attachments\/2025\/10\/event_141339_original-1.jpg", "event_feature_large":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_feature_large\/media\/attachments\/2025\/10\/event_141339_original-1.jpg", "event_feature_thumb":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_feature_thumb\/media\/attachments\/2025\/10\/event_141339_original-1.jpg" }, "qr_code_url":"http:\/\/events.umich.edu\/event\/141339\/qrcode.png", "occurrence_count":1, "first_occurrence":21888653 } , { "id":"140426-21887072", "datetime_modified":"20251008T091633", "datetime_start":"20251107T100000", "datetime_end":"20251107T113000", "has_end_time":1, "date_start":"2025-11-07", "date_end":"2025-11-07", "time_start":"10:00:00", "time_end":"11:30:00", "time_zone":"America\/Detroit", "event_title":"The Communication and Media Journey: Professionals Panel", "occurrence_title":"", "combined_title":"The Communication and Media Journey: Professionals Panel: Rose Glenn, Justin Pollack, and Kaitlin Urka", "event_subtitle":"Rose Glenn, Justin Pollack, and Kaitlin Urka", "event_type":"Lecture \/ Discussion", "event_type_id":"13", "description":"Join us for an engaging career event designed specifically for students eager to learn more about the diverse opportunities within the communication and media industry!\r\n\r\nAt this event, students will have the chance to participate in panel discussions and Q&A sessions as our three professionals discuss their career paths and share insights and wisdom.\r\n\r\nThis event is open to all students with an interest in communication and media.\r\n\r\nMeet the Panelists\r\n\r\nRose Glenn brings four decades of healthcare experience, including nearly 30 years in the C-suite counseling and coaching senior executives.

Benedict's work has largely been overshadowed by her physical and mental breakdown resulting from the grueling conditions she faced in the field, but likewise, Fernandez argues, was a situation that stemmed from her intense commitment not only to the work of research, but also to her deep identifications with the Bagobos. According to her contemporaries, her later fieldwork was characterized by an increasing \"paranoia\" towards the American hemp planters of the region, whose incursions, she believed, caused \"a severe crisis in [the Bagobos'] tribal history,\" representing a breakdown of their \"traditional\" way of life, thus looking on in horror at the Bagobos' acculturation. This talk analyzes Benedict's fieldwork to make sense of the early history of anthropological fieldwork in the American colonial Philippines by contextualizing Benedict's fieldwork praxis through her gendered experiences of research, and examining the way that the Bagobos of Mindanao invited, of their own volition, Benedict's participation in their cultural and religious life.\r\n \r\n Juan Fernandez is assistant professor of Southeast Asian history at the University of Wisconsin - Madison, where he is working on his first book project, \"Becoming Natives,\" which is a history of how gender and ethnographic fieldwork intertwine to produce anthropological knowledge in the early twentieth century in the American Philippines.\r\n\r\nIf there is anything we can do to make this event accessible to you, please contact us at valdezjo@umich.edu.

Hunt Memorial Lecture\r\n\r\nMeasuring the Health of the Brain: From Global Networks to Local Biomarkers\r\nAbstract:\r\nHow do we measure the health of the brain? Unlike blood pressure or cholesterol, there is no single number that captures brain function. We are developing the Brain Entropy Index (BEI), a new measure that integrates thermodynamics, statistical modeling, and brain imaging to provide a global indicator of brain health. Using data from modalities such as EEG, fMRI, and MEG, the BEI can reliably separate healthy from diseased brains, offering promise as a universal screening tool.\r\n\r\nYet, just as a blood test might flag \u201cillness\u201d without specifying the disease, a global index cannot by itself identify the underlying condition. Neurological disorders are defined by distinct local network dynamics, and it is these dynamics that can give rise to robust biomarkers. One example is EpiScalp, a computational tool we developed to model local brain networks from scalp EEG. EpiScalp can differentiate true epilepsy from seizure-mimicking disorders and from healthy brains, providing a disorder-specific biomarker.\r\n\r\nTogether, these approaches demonstrate a two-tiered framework: global measures can screen for health versus disease, while local network dynamics serve as biomarkers that refine diagnosis and define specific conditions. More broadly, this talk will illustrate how concepts from systems & control theory, physics, and data science can converge to open new frontiers in neuroscience and medicine.\r\n \r\nBio:\r\nSridevi Sarma received a B.S. in Electrical Engineering from Cornell University, and an M.S. and Ph.D. in Electrical Engineering and Computer Science from Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT).

Contrary to Darwin\u2019s hypothesis that this phenomenon reflected a largely eroded and imperfect geological record, scientists have spent the past 70 years unraveling a diverse Precambrian biosphere characterized by the deep roots of eukaryotic evolution. Now, it is generally agreed that the Neoproterozoic origins of animals and multicellularity are at least partly related to genetic challenges (e.g., Butterfield, 2018); however, the simultaneous explosion in body size, morphological features, and skeletonization in the Cambrian is almost certainly the result of external \u201ctriggers\u201d (e.g., Erwin et al., 2011; Zhang et al., 2014; Schiffbauer et al., 2016), the nature of which have been widely debated. Mechanistic hypotheses for the Cambrian radiation have ranged from ecological concepts, such as ecosystem engineering (Butterfield, 2011; Erwin and Tweedt, 2012; Butterfield, 2018), changes in resource patchiness (Budd and Jensen, 2017), or organism-organism interactions (Peterson et al., 2005; Marshall, 2006; Schiffbauer et al., 2016), to environmental parameters like marine oxygenation (e.g., Sperling et al., 2013), changes in global seawater chemistry (Peters and Gaines, 2012), an increase in nutrient or food resources (Cook and Shergold, 1984; Sperling and Stockey, 2018), or true polar wander (Mitchell et al., 2015).

During this time, Chilean Dictator, Augusto Pinochet, launched Operation Condor, a secret, multi-lateral counter-intelligence program that came to include military governments in Uruguay, Paraguay, Argentina, Bolivia, Brazil, Peru, and Ecuador. Their collaborations led to hundreds of international kidnappings, torture, and assassinations of civilians, human rights activists and political refugees within the region, U.S., and Europe. Yet, through a combination of domestic resistance and mobilization by activists and international pressure, countries like Chile and Argentina transitioned to not only thriving democracies, but global leaders in human rights education. \r\n\r\nJoin us to learn from Chilean activist and Manager of Archives at the Museum of Memory and Human Rights in Chile, Juan Carlos Vega Briones and the former Executive Director of the ESMA Museum and Site of Memory of Argentina, Mayki Gorosito.\r\n\r\n Event presentations are in Spanish with English translation.\r\n\r\n\r\nCo-sponsors:\r\n Donia Human Rights Center, Center for Emerging Democracies, University of Michigan Global Engagement, Office of the Provost.\r\n\r\nAccommodation: If there is anything we can do to make this event accessible to you, please contact us.

cases, and regional conditions. This talk will provide an overview of our ongoing research quantifying the environmental and operational implications of vehicle electrification across different segments. We examine how electric passenger cars, delivery vans, and transit buses differ in their energy use, emissions, and cost trajectories using a combination of data-driven modeling, optimization, and system analysis. Example studies I will introduce in this talk include regional life cycle emissions assessment for passenger cars, real-world energy consumption prediction for delivery fleets, and transition planning for clean bus networks using a multi-stage stochastic optimization model . Together, these studies demonstrate how analytical and data-driven methods can help us investigate vehicle performance, fleet operations, and system-level emissions outcomes, providing actionable insights.\r\n---\r\nAbout the speaker: Dr. Tu\u011f\u00e7e Y\u00fcksel is an Assistant Professor in Faculty of Engineering and Natural Sciences at Sabanc\u0131 University, Istanbul, Turkey.

The conversation will explore the complex and challenging experiences faced by farmworkers today, as well as their heightened precarity due to the policies of the current administration, through the lens of academic research, public health, visual storytelling, and legal advocacy.\r\n\r\nMeet the Participants:\r\n\r\nNarsiso Martinez (b. 1977, Oaxaca, Mexico) came to the United States when he was 20 years old. He attended Evans Community Adult School and completed high school in 2006 at the age of 29. He earned an Associate of Arts degree in 2009 from Los Angeles City College. In the fall of 2012 Narsiso earned his Bachelor of Fine Arts from California State University Long Beach. In the spring of 2018 he received a Master of Fine Arts degree in drawing and painting from California State University Long Beach, and was awarded the prestigious Dedalus Foundation MFA Fellowship in Painting and Sculpture. His work has been exhibited both locally and internationally. His work is in the collections of the Hammer Museum, OCMA, Amon Carter Museum of American Art, University of Arizona Museum of Art, Long Beach Museum of Art, Crocker Art Museum, Jordan Schnitzer Museum of Art at the University of Oregon, and the Santa Barbara Museum of Art. Martinez lives and works in Long Beach, CA.\r\n\r\nDr. Iglesias-Rios\u2019s research interests are the intersection of environmental and occupational health with precarious employment and labor exploitation in vulnerable populations. Her previous research assessed the impact of labor trafficking by studying how patterns of violence and coercion affect the mental health of female and male trafficking survivors including children, adolescents and adults. She also sought to understand how the living and working conditions during trafficking affect the mental health of survivors. Dr. Iglesias-Rios is the Co-Investigator of the Michigan Farmworker Project, a community-based participatory project that assess the working and living conditions of migrant and seasonal farmworkers in the state of Michigan. The focus of the research is to investigate indicators of precarious employment and labor exploitation that involve psychosocial, occupational and environmental exposures and complex contextual conditions (social, economic and physical milieu) of farmworkers.\r\n\r\nAmanda Krugliak is a curator and artist known for performative, conceptual, and experiential installations, in charge of programming for the Institute for the Humanities Gallery since 2009. In 2012, she co-created the internationally recognized installation *State of Exception *with artist Richard Barnes and U-M anthropologist Jason De Le\u00f3n based upon De Le\u00f3n\u2019s Undocumented Migration Project.

Moving away from the eugenic principles that dominated the first part of this period, policy increasingly treated disability as something to be accommodated rather than eliminated, and disabled people as folks who should be supported to live full lives in the community. \r\n\r\nBut recent events -- punitive responses to mental illness and homelessness at the state and federal levels, the dramatic retrenchment of Medicaid and other support programs during the past few months, and others -- threaten to return us to the world of the Eugenics Era and the English Poor Laws before that, in which disability is treated as a drain on society and those with disabilities are to be highly regulated. \r\n\r\nThis lecture will elaborate on these points.\r\n\r\nSince 2018, Hal and Carol Kohn and the Kohn Charitable Trust have committed a total of $17 million to the Ford School to establish the Kohn Collaborative for Social Policy, a hub that will catalyze interdisciplinary research and policy impact to promote social equity and inclusion for all U.S. residents. The collaborative consists of three pillars: Kohn Professors, Kohn Scholars, and policy impact. The Arlene Susan Kohn Professor of Social Policy is one of five Kohn professorships, specifically to support research that contributes to policies advancing the rights of disabled individuals in the United States. It was named in honor of Hal\u2019s twin sister, born with Down syndrome, who passed away in 2016.\r\n\r\nSpeaker Bio:\r\n\r\nSamuel Bagenstos is the Arlene Susan Kohn Professor of Social Policy. at the Gerald R. Ford School of Public Policy and Frank G. Millard Professor of Law at the University of Michigan Law School.\r\n\r\nFrom June 2022 to December 2024, he served as General Counsel to the Department of Health and Human Services. He played a key role in advancing and implementing policies across the Department, including pursuing several initiatives on abortion and reproductive rights; crafting and defending the first-ever Medicare Drug Price Negotiation Program; drafting and issuing major rules on civil rights, health privacy, Medicare and Medicaid, drug advertising, the regulation of \"lab-developed\" medical tests and of food safety, the treatment of unaccompanied migrant children in HHS care, the treatment of LGBT kids in the foster care system, and many other issues; advancing marijuana rescheduling; advising and defending the Food and Drug Administration's tobacco enforcement program; and working with the Department of Justice on litigation involving HHS, including significant abortion rights, free speech, and tobacco regulation cases in the Supreme Court.\r\n\r\nFrom Inauguration Day 2021 to June 2022, he served as General Counsel to the Office of Management and Budget. There, he worked on President Biden's Day One executive orders; helped respond to COVID, including implementing several crucial aid programs; responded to regulations adopted by the prior administration just before the inauguration and helped advance the new administration's regulations on labor, health, the environment, and much else; helped craft and implement the American Rescue Plan, the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law, and what became the Inflation Reduction Act; and assisted in developing two annual budgets, along with advising the entire Executive Branch on issues of appropriations law and administrative law.\r\n\r\nIn an earlier stint on leave from the University, from 2009 to 2011, Bagenstos was an appointee in the US Department of Justice, where he served as the principal deputy assistant attorney general for civil rights, the number two official in the Civil Rights Division. There, he helped promulgate the 2010 Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) regulations\u2014the first comprehensive update of those regulations since they were first issued in 1991\u2014and led the reinvigoration of the Civil Rights Division\u2019s enforcement of the US Supreme Court\u2019s decision in Olmstead v. L.C., which guarantees people with disabilities the right to live and receive services in the most integrated setting appropriate. He led the negotiations of significant Olmstead settlements with the states of Delaware and Georgia, which guarantee appropriate, community-based services to thousands of people with disabilities. He also personally argued major cases in federal district courts and courts of appeals.\r\n\r\nAs an academic, Bagenstos has published articles in journals such as the Yale Law Journal, the Stanford Law Review, the Columbia Law Review, the California Law Review, the Virginia Law Review, the Cornell Law Review, the Georgetown Law Journal, and many others. He also has published two books: Law and the Contradictions of the Disability Rights Movement (Yale University Press, 2009) and Disability Rights Law: Cases and Materials (Foundation Press, originally published in 2010 but now working on the fourth edition), and he has written articles for nonacademic audiences in publications such as Democracy: A Journal of Ideas, The American Prospect, The Washington Monthly, Slate, and The New Republic.\r\n\r\nBagenstos is actively involved in public and community affairs, both in Ann Arbor and statewide. Pursuant to an appointment by Gov. Gretchen Whitmer, he served as chair of the Michigan Employment Relations Commission, the state agency that enforces the rights of public employees to unionize and collectively bargain. Pursuant to an appointment by Mayor Christopher Taylor, he served as a member of the Ann Arbor Housing Commission.

Professor Tach will present, \"The Cumulative Impact of Federal Place-Based Policies on Neighborhood Inequality, 1990-2019.\"\r\n\r\nAbstract: \u201cConcentrated neighborhood disadvantage remains a defining feature of the U.S. landscape, sustained by legacies of racial exclusion and public disinvestment. In recent decades, the federal government has increasingly invested in high-poverty neighborhoods via place-based policies\u2014spatially targeted interventions designed to improve economic opportunity, housing, and local infrastructure. Although prior research has examined the effects of specific place-based programs, we know less about the collective and cumulative impact of the place-based policy field as a whole. This study develops a novel framework for assessing policy impact at the field level to evaluate how an array of federal place-based housing and economic development initiatives have jointly reshaped disadvantaged neighborhoods. Using longitudinal data that link federal funding streams to specific neighborhoods from 1990 to 2019, we find that federal economic development programs significantly improved local economic and housing indicators but also induced racialized patterns of residential displacement. By contrast, place-based federal housing programs increased property values while preserving rental affordability and demographic stability. We assess the ecological significance of these changes and find that they were substantial enough to alter durable patterns of neighborhood stratification within metropolitan areas. This analysis highlights how examining the collective and cumulative influence of policy fields\u2014rather than discrete interventions\u2014illuminates the state\u2019s evolving role in producing and potentially transforming urban inequality.\u201d", "occurrence_notes":null, "guid":"141228-21888427@events.umich.edu", "permalink":"http:\/\/events.umich.edu\/event\/141228", "building_id":"1000145",

This coupling increases the need to have reliable uncertainty quantification. Traditional methods for such estimation, however, require distributional assumptions that are incompatible with these modern black-box estimators. In their place, post-hoc, distribution-free methods of uncertainty quantification have arisen. Among these is ``conformal prediction.'' At its core, conformal prediction performs uncertainty quantification by replacing model point predictions with ``prediction regions,'' subsets of the output space whose shape and size are defined to guarantee coverage of the truth with some user-specified probability.\r\n\r\nDespite such guarantees, these implicitly defined predictions regions do not directly lend themselves to practical use; while researchers professed their supposed utility, their downstream use was not immediately obvious. In this thesis, we propose and develop one such use: model-based decision-making. We demonstrate that conformal prediction can be integrated into a variety of decision-making pipelines, from single-step predict-then-optimize problems to model-based LQR control, and consequently enable guarantees on suboptimality that otherwise cannot be established.\r\n\r\nWe develop this conformal decision-making framework over three works. In the first, we focus on the development of conformal prediction in the space of scientific inquiry: here, decisions are often framed as hypothesis testing of parameter values. Increasingly common in certain domains, such as astrophysics and neuroscience, is the use approximate variational inference to do such parameter estimation, due to the large scale at which such estimation is to be performed. Amortized variational inference produces a posterior approximation that can be rapidly computed given any new observation. Unfortunately, there are few guarantees about the quality of these approximate posteriors. We propose Conformalized Amortized Neural Variational Inference (CANVI), a procedure that is scalable, easily implemented, and provides guaranteed marginal coverage. Given a collection of candidate amortized posterior approximators, CANVI constructs conformalized predictors based on each candidate, compares the predictors using a metric known as predictive efficiency, and returns the most efficient predictor. \r\n\r\nIn the next work, we generalize the setting for such robust decision-making, expanding from scientific parameter testing to a more general space of ``predict-then-optimize'' problems. As in standard decision-making formulations, these problems frame the decision-making task as a parametric optimization problem. The unique aspect here, however, is that the parameters of the problem are not revealed to the decision-maker. As a result, the decision-maker is forced to estimate the unknown parameters and optimize their decision against this surrogate objective, hence the given name: the estimation is performed by ``predicting'' the parameters with an upstream model. In the nominal approach, the parameters predicted by the upstream model are assumed to precisely coincide with the true, unknown parameters; this approach of specification, however, fails to have any formal guarantees on the resulting decision. Towards this end, we develop a robust analog of this nominal problem formulation, called ``Conformal Predict-Then-Optimize'' (CPO), from which suboptimality guarantees can be established. We then demonstrate how a simple, residual-based score results in overly conservative decision-making and propose an alternative score that produces structured, non-convex prediction regions and, in turn, more informative decisions. \r\n\r\nFinally, we demonstrate the generality of the proposed conformal predict-then-optimize decision-making framework. In particular, we demonstrate that CPO can be extended to a recently proposed extension to conformal prediction in which the scalar score function is replaced with an analogous vector score and the quantile threshold by a quantile envelope. We similarly demonstrate that CPO naturally lends itself to extension to model-based robust control applications. We, thus, develop extensions across these two applications and then demonstrate the consistent empirical improvements produced in each.", "occurrence_notes":null, "guid":"141318-21888574@events.umich.edu", "permalink":"http:\/\/events.umich.edu\/event\/141318", "building_id":"1000167", "building_name":"West Hall", "building_official_id":1000167, "campus_maps_id":"163", "campus_maps_link_path":"west-hall", "campus_maps_link":"https:\/\/maps.studentlife.umich.edu\/building\/west-hall", "room":"438", "location_name":"West Hall", "has_livestream":0, "cost":"", "tags":["Dissertation"], "website":"", "links":[ ], "sponsors":[ { "group_name":"Department of Statistics Dissertation Defenses", "group_id":"4045", "website":"" } ], "image_url":"", "image_description":"", "styled_images":{ "event_thumb":"", "event_large":"", "event_large_2x":"", "event_large_lightbox":"", "group_thumb":"", "group_thumb_square":"", "group_large":"", "group_large_lightbox":"", "event_large_crop":"", "event_list":"", "event_list_2x":"", "event_grid":"", "event_grid_2x":"", "event_feature_large":"", "event_feature_thumb":"" }, "qr_code_url":"http:\/\/events.umich.edu\/event\/141318\/qrcode.png", "occurrence_count":1, "first_occurrence":21888574 } , { "id":"26015-21654773", "datetime_modified":"20251027T163013", "datetime_start":"20251111T150000", "datetime_end":"20251111T160000", "has_end_time":1, "date_start":"2025-11-11", "date_end":"2025-11-11", "time_start":"15:00:00", "time_end":"16:00:00", "time_zone":"America\/Detroit", "event_title":"Veterans Week: Iraq\/Afghanistan Panel", "occurrence_title":"", "combined_title":"Veterans Week: Iraq\/Afghanistan Panel", "event_subtitle":"", "event_type":"Lecture \/ Discussion", "event_type_id":"13", "description":"Oct 7, 2001 to Aug 30, 2021 the US was engaged in it\u2019s longest conflict in Afghanistan and Iraq.

However, over the last five years, the crucial role of in-medium effects has come into sharp focus. A new theoretical framework in the language of condensed matter physics has emerged for understanding the relationship between the properties of detector systems and their sensitivity to DM interactions. I will report on three recent advances that leverage this formalism to substantially broaden the design considerations for the next generation of experiments, and even extract new constraints from existing data. First, for DM\u2013electron interactions, large new datasets generated by the materials science community have enabled the first data-driven search for optimal detector materials, which promises to significantly enhance the sensitivity of near-future experiments. Second, just as detectors designed to detect nuclear scattering have been used to study electronic scattering, I will explain how in-medium effects make the reverse possible as well, allowing us to set new limits on DM\u2013nucleon scattering using the low-threshold detectors designed to detect electronic scattering. Third, with the advent of low-threshold detectors sensitive to energy deposits as low as 50 meV, we have finally entered the regime where the interaction rate can be significantly enhanced due to the geometry of the detector system. These three considerations promise to substantially accelerate the search for light DM in both mass and cross section over the coming years.", "occurrence_notes":null, "guid":"137598-21880447@events.umich.edu", "permalink":"http:\/\/events.umich.edu\/event\/137598", "building_id":"1000208", "building_name":"Randall Laboratory", "building_official_id":1000208, "campus_maps_id":"133", "campus_maps_link_path":"harrison-m-randall-laboratory", "campus_maps_link":"https:\/\/maps.studentlife.umich.edu\/building\/harrison-m-randall-laboratory", "room":"3481", "location_name":"Randall Laboratory", "has_livestream":0, "cost":"", "tags":["brown bag","Brown Bag Seminar","Physics","Science"], "website":"", "links":[ ], "sponsors":[ { "group_name":"Leinweber Institute for Theoretical Physics", "group_id":"4286", "website":"" }, { "group_name":"Department of Physics", "group_id":"1965", "website":"" }, { "group_name":"HET Brown Bag Series", "group_id":"3805", "website":"" }, { "group_name":"Leinweber Institute for Theoretical Physics Seminars", "group_id":"4311", "website":"" }, { "group_name":"Leinweber Institute for Theoretical Physics Brown Bag Seminars", "group_id":"4865", "website":"" } ], "image_url":"", "image_description":"", "styled_images":{ "event_thumb":"", "event_large":"", "event_large_2x":"", "event_large_lightbox":"", "group_thumb":"", "group_thumb_square":"", "group_large":"", "group_large_lightbox":"", "event_large_crop":"", "event_list":"", "event_list_2x":"", "event_grid":"", "event_grid_2x":"", "event_feature_large":"", "event_feature_thumb":"" }, "qr_code_url":"http:\/\/events.umich.edu\/event\/137598\/qrcode.png", "occurrence_count":1, "first_occurrence":21880447 } , { "id":"141461-21888827", "datetime_modified":"20260107T161837", "datetime_start":"20251112T120000", "datetime_end":"20251112T130000", "has_end_time":1, "date_start":"2025-11-12", "date_end":"2025-11-12", "time_start":"12:00:00", "time_end":"13:00:00", "time_zone":"America\/Detroit", "event_title":"MPSDS \/ JPSM Seminar Series: Achieving Fairness in AI with Synthetic Data", "occurrence_title":"", "combined_title":"MPSDS \/ JPSM Seminar Series: Achieving Fairness in AI with Synthetic Data: Bei Jiang - University of Alberta", "event_subtitle":"Bei Jiang - University of Alberta", "event_type":"Lecture \/ Discussion", "event_type_id":"13", "description":"MPSDS \/ JPSM Seminar Series\r\nMPSDS M3 Series: Mastery, Methodology, Meetups\r\n\r\nIn person, room 1070, Institute for Social Research and via Zoom. \r\nThe Zoom call be be locked 10 minutes after the start of the presentation. \r\nPlease note that many of the links have changed.\r\n\r\nAchieving Fairness in AI with Synthetic Data\r\nArtificial intelligence and machine learning increasingly inform decisions in hiring, lending, healthcare, and justice. Yet real-world datasets often encode historical bias, and models trained on them can reproduce or amplify inequities. Pre-processing via fair synthetic data is a promising: if we can generate data that mitigates bias at the source while preserving signal, downstream models can be both fair and useful. This talk introduces FDA (Fair synthetic data via Data Augmentation), a statistically principled framework that makes the fairness\u2013faithfulness trade-off explicit and controllable. FDA jointly models a fair submodel and a faithful submodel, coupled by a single parameter $\\alpha \\in [0,1]$ that quantifies the fraction of bias removed. We prove clear operating points: $\\alpha=0$ yields maximal fairness (with larger deviation from the original distribution), $\\alpha=1$ recovers the original data in probability (hence in distribution), and intermediate $\\alpha$ values guarantee calibrated compromises with interpretable bounds. Practically, FDA samples directly from simple predictive distributions, avoiding heavy black-box training. We further provide theory connecting FDA\u2019s $\\alpha$ to fairness of downstream models. Together, these results deliver a transparent, efficient, and deployable path to generating fair synthetic data without sacrificing essential statistical structure.\r\n\r\nDr. Bei Jiang is an Associate Professor in the Department of Mathematical and Statistical Sciences at the University of Alberta, a Fellow of the Alberta Machine Intelligence Institute (Amii), and a Canada CIFAR AI Chair.

But behind the scenes, AI tools consume massive amounts of electricity. Training just one large AI model can use as much energy as thousands of U.S. homes do in a year. And as AI adoption grows, so does its appetite for power.\r\n\r\nThis surge in energy demand drives up operational costs, puts pressure on already-congested power infrastructure, and makes it harder to bring AI to places without reliable electricity. These barriers are becoming major bottlenecks for deploying and scaling AI systems.\r\n\r\nThrough the ML Energy Initiative, we\u2019re working to address these challenges. We\u2019ve built tools to measure energy use, reduce waste, and design AI systems that are more efficient\u2014without sacrificing the accuracy of AI models. In this talk, I\u2019ll share how smarter energy use can make AI more affordable and accessible.\r\n\r\nMeet Mosharaf Chowdhury:\r\nMosharaf Chowdhury is an Associate Professor of Computer Science and Engineering at the University of Michigan, Ann Arbor, where he leads the SymbioticLab. His research focuses on making AI\/ML workloads more efficient, with a particular emphasis on reducing their energy consumption through the ML Energy Initiative. Major open-source projects from his team include Infiniswap, the first scalable memory disaggregation solution; FedScale, a planetary-scale AI\/ML platform; TPP, a tiered memory manager integrated into the Linux kernel (v5.18+); and Zeus, the first energy-optimal generative AI stack. Previously, Mosharaf invented the concept of coflows and was one of the original creators of Apache Spark. He has received numerous individual honors, including fellowships and paper awards from NSDI, OSDI, ATC, and MICRO.", "occurrence_notes":null, "guid":"137737-21880662@events.umich.edu", "permalink":"http:\/\/events.umich.edu\/event\/137737", "building_id":"1000189", "building_name":"Dana Building", "building_official_id":1000189, "campus_maps_id":"627", "campus_maps_link_path":"samuel-trask-dana-building", "campus_maps_link":"https:\/\/maps.studentlife.umich.edu\/building\/samuel-trask-dana-building", "room":"440", "location_name":"Dana Building", "has_livestream":0, "cost":"", "tags":["Discussion","Free","Lecture"], "website":"https:\/\/midas.umich.edu\/events\/energy-optimal-ai\/", "links":[ { "type":"other", "url":"https:\/\/midas.umich.edu\/events\/energy-optimal-ai\/", "title":"Event Website" }, { "type":"registration", "url":"https:\/\/docs.google.com\/forms\/d\/e\/1FAIpQLSfguL4Tcb0ftXvJPTgBMTY5Aie5QvVV16FouDAJUW1xVqMvIw\/viewform", "title":"Event Registration" }, { "type":"other", "url":"https:\/\/docs.google.com\/forms\/d\/e\/1FAIpQLSc2I8tA-GG4_3XDHJF0x9lSwNUbDtlBBfIsWp2pCxBF7e2lCA\/viewform", "title":"MIDAS News Sign-Up" }, { "type":"linkedin", "url":"https:\/\/www.linkedin.com\/company\/michigan-institute-for-data-science-midas\/", "title":"MIDAS LinkedIn" } ], "sponsors":[ { "group_name":"Michigan Institute for Data and AI in Society MIDAS", "group_id":"3521", "website":"" }, { "group_name":"School for Environment and Sustainability SEAS", "group_id":"1199", "website":"" } ], "image_url":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/attachments\/2025\/08\/event_137737_original-1.jpg", "image_description":"Headshot of Speaker, Mosharaf Chowdhury", "styled_images":{ "event_thumb":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_thumb\/media\/attachments\/2025\/08\/event_137737_original-1.jpg", "event_large":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_large\/media\/attachments\/2025\/08\/event_137737_original-1.jpg", "event_large_2x":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/resolve\/event_large_2x\/media\/attachments\/2025\/08\/event_137737_original-1.jpg", "event_large_lightbox":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_large_lightbox\/media\/attachments\/2025\/08\/event_137737_original-1.jpg", "group_thumb":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/resolve\/group_thumb\/media\/attachments\/2025\/08\/event_137737_original-1.jpg", "group_thumb_square":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/resolve\/group_thumb_square\/media\/attachments\/2025\/08\/event_137737_original-1.jpg", "group_large":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/resolve\/group_large\/media\/attachments\/2025\/08\/event_137737_original-1.jpg", "group_large_lightbox":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/resolve\/group_large_lightbox\/media\/attachments\/2025\/08\/event_137737_original-1.jpg", "event_large_crop":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/resolve\/event_large_crop\/media\/attachments\/2025\/08\/event_137737_original-1.jpg", "event_list":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/resolve\/event_list\/media\/attachments\/2025\/08\/event_137737_original-1.jpg", "event_list_2x":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_list_2x\/media\/attachments\/2025\/08\/event_137737_original-1.jpg", "event_grid":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_grid\/media\/attachments\/2025\/08\/event_137737_original-1.jpg", "event_grid_2x":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/resolve\/event_grid_2x\/media\/attachments\/2025\/08\/event_137737_original-1.jpg", "event_feature_large":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/resolve\/event_feature_large\/media\/attachments\/2025\/08\/event_137737_original-1.jpg", "event_feature_thumb":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/resolve\/event_feature_thumb\/media\/attachments\/2025\/08\/event_137737_original-1.jpg" }, "qr_code_url":"http:\/\/events.umich.edu\/event\/137737\/qrcode.png", "occurrence_count":1, "first_occurrence":21880662 } , { "id":"141088-21888119", "datetime_modified":"20251024T111239", "datetime_start":"20251112T180000", "datetime_end":"20251112T200000", "has_end_time":1, "date_start":"2025-11-12", "date_end":"2025-11-12", "time_start":"18:00:00", "time_end":"20:00:00", "time_zone":"America\/Detroit", "event_title":"Women\u2019s Liberation at the University of Michigan, 1968-72 Panel Discussion", "occurrence_title":"", "combined_title":"Women\u2019s Liberation at the University of Michigan, 1968-72 Panel Discussion: Jewish and Other Identities in the Emergence of a Movement", "event_subtitle":"Jewish and Other Identities in the Emergence of a Movement", "event_type":"Lecture \/ Discussion", "event_type_id":"13", "description":"Join us for a panel discussion on the rise of feminist activism at U-M and in Ann Arbor from 1968\u20131972.

Free and open to the public.\n\nFor music educators, a key aspiration is helping developing musicians stand on their own as learners. A key step in this process is teaching them how to practice, enabling them to act as their own instructors. Although the goal is clear, the path toward it can be complex. Grounded in research, this session will draw on psychological theories to illuminate the factors that shape effective practice. Studies on practice, motivation, and learning will be explored to show how research helps explain musical skill development. Evidence-based strategies for fostering self-regulated practice will be introduced.\n\nABOUT THE SPEAKER\n\nPETER MIKSZA is Professor of Music Education and Chair of the Music Education Department at the Indiana University Jacobs School of Music. He co-directs the IU Music and Mind Lab and researches psychological and social dimensions of musical skill, teacher preparation, and music education policy. Widely published and active internationally, he teaches undergraduate and graduate courses, advises research projects, and serves as Editor of the Journal of Research in Music Education.

Boyd", "event_type":"Lecture \/ Discussion", "event_type_id":"13", "description":"Description\r\nSuicidal behaviors among young Black sexual minority males aged 14 to 17 represent a critical but understudied public health concern. National data show that 18.4% of gay men and 22.2% of bisexual men aged 18 to 25 have experienced suicidal ideation, compared to 6.7% of heterosexual men. Young BSMM often face limited supportive resources, contributing to isolation and heightened risk. This study will employ dominance analysis to identify developmental assets most strongly associated with mental health outcomes. Variables with an R\u00b2 contribution greater than 5% will be combined into an \u201casset mediator\u201d to examine the pathway between discrimination and depression. By focusing on key protective assets such as family support, positive identity, and positive values, this research will clarify their relative importance and mechanisms of influence, offering insight into strategies that can mitigate suicidal behaviors in this vulnerable population.\r\n\r\nLearning Objective:\r\n\r\nEngage in Research-Informed Practice and Practice-Informed Research (Competency 4): Apply findings from dominance analysis to inform asset-based, culturally responsive interventions that strengthen family support, positive identity, and positive values for BSMM youth.\r\nPresenter\r\nDr. Donte T. Boyd is an Associate Professor at The Ohio State University College of Social Work. He also serves as a Visiting Research Faculty member as part of the Research Education Institute for Diverse Scholars (REIDS) at Yale University School of Public Health through the Center for Interdisciplinary Research on AIDS (CIRA). Dr. Boyd\u2019s research addresses how socio-contextual factors impact young Black MSM decision-making behaviors. He is particularly interested in examining how the role of the family (e.g., parent\/sibling support, communication, and socialization) and other important persons in young Black MSM lives impact HIV prevention behavior (e.g., HIV testing, PrEP Use) and other health and mental health outcomes. Donte\u2019s research also focuses on the impact of school context among Black male adolescents in shaping their sexual health behaviors. Before joining the faculty, Dr. Boyd received his Ph.D. from UCLA Luskin School of Public Affairs. He also has worked extensively as a social worker in different capacities in AIDs Serving Organizations (ASOs). Dr. Boyd worked as Ryan White Case Manager working with HIV-positive individuals and as a Public Health Representative before deciding to further his educational pursuits.\r\n\r\nAs well, Dr. Boyd is a Curtis Center Faculty Affiliate and co-leads the Health & Mental Health Interventions for Black Youth research initiative at the Curtis Center that supports efforts to amplify the voices of Black youth in the Midwest by exploring how mental health, healing practices, and community support influence suicide prevention and wellbeing.\r\n\r\nAgenda\r\n1:00 - 1:15pm | Speaker's Introduction & Context\r\n\r\n1:15 - 1:30pm | Dominance Analysis and Protective Assets\r\n\r\n1:30 - 1:45pm | Discrimination, Depression, and the Asset Mediator\r\n\r\n1:45 - 2:00pm | Future Directions & Conclusion\r\n\r\nCE Approval Statement\r\nThe University of Michigan School of Social Work, provider #1212, is approved to offer social work continuing education by the Association of Social Work Boards (ASWB) Approved Continuing Education (ACE) program.

Please help us be good stewards of University resources and update your response if plans change.\r\n\r\nCoined by Utibe R. Essien, MD, MPH, pharmacoequity is defined as \u201censuring all individuals, regardless of race and ethnicity, socioeconomic status, or availability of resources, have access to the highest-quality medications required to manage their health needs.\u201d. The goal of this talk is to explain the concept of pharmacoequity and how individuals can apply this knowledge to their practice and communities.\r\n\r\nSpeaker\r\nUtibe R. Essien, MD, MPH\r\nAssistant Professor of Medicine, David Geffen School of Medicine, University of California Los Angeles; Associate Vice Chair, Community Engagement and Inclusive Excellence, Department of Medicine\r\n\r\nBiography\r\nUtibe R. Essien, MD, MPH, FACP is a board-certified, internal medicine physician, an Assistant Professor of Medicine and health equity researcher at the David Geffen School of Medicine at UCLA. A proud New Yorker, Dr. Essien received his MD from the Albert Einstein College of Medicine in the Bronx, NY before training in internal medicine at Massachusetts General Hospital (MGH) and Harvard Medical School. After residency he remained at MGH to complete a General Internal Medicine fellowship and receive an MPH degree from the Harvard School of Public Health.\r\n\r\nDr. Essien\u2019s research focuses on disparities in the use of novel medications and technologies, particularly in the management of cardiovascular diseases. In 2021, he coined the term \u201cpharmacoequity,\u201d providing a new framework to achieving equitable access to care. He is an emerging leader in the field, as recognized by over 120 peer-reviewed publications and research grants from the Department of Veterans Affairs and the American Heart Association. His research has earned him numerous national awards including a 2023 Young Physician Scientist Award from the American Society for Clinical Investigation (ASCI), the 2024 Society of General Internal Medicine (SGIM) Outstanding Junior Investigator of the Year Award, and selection as an Emerging Leader in Health and Medicine by the National Academy of Medicine (NAM).\r\n\r\nMcKesson Foundation Health Equity Speaker Series\r\n\r\nDisparities in health and healthcare have been are prevalent, particularly in underserved or minority communities, as a result of a variety of factors such as birthplace, housing, education, race, age, sexual identity and other nonmedical factors. These factors are commonly referred to as the social determinants of health (SDOH). As a result of SDOH, quality healthcare and treatment can be difficult to access for many who don\u2019t fall into the dominant group and must confront barriers to receive treatment.\r\n\r\nExamples of barriers to adequate healthcare treatment include poverty, lack of access to quality education or positive social activities, and unhealthy environmental factors. These factors must be addressed in order to achieve positive health outcomes and equity in access to healthcare and treatment for all. To help illuminate and educate around issues involving social determinants of health, the College of Pharmacy and the McKesson Foundation have teamed up to launch the McKesson Foundation Health Equity Speaker Series.\r\n\r\nFor the past two years the College of Pharmacy at the University of Michigan in partnership with the McKesson Foundation has hosted a speaker series based on the topic of health equity. The McKesson Foundation is dedicated to advancing health outcomes for all with the mission to removing barriers to quality healthcare across the country, especially for vulnerable and underserved communities. The College of Pharmacy also has a longstanding history of fighting to address addressing disparities in healthcare and is a leader in the fight for equitable healthcare for all individuals. This alignment in values and mission of both organizations led to the provision awarding of a grant to resulted in the College of Pharmacy being awarded a grant in 2022 to launch what we now call the McKesson Foundation Health Equity Speaker Series, with the goal of educating the UM community and inspiring those around us to find solutions that address inequities in healthcare and beyond.\r\n\r\nAbout our Funder, the McKesson Foundation\r\nThe McKesson Foundation is a charitable organization dedicated to improving health outcomes for vulnerable and underserved populations. It focuses on initiatives that address healthcare disparities, promote patient-centered care, and support cancer care and survivorship. Through grants, partnerships, and employee-driven giving programs, the foundation aims to foster innovative solutions that enhance community health and well-being.", "occurrence_notes":"RSVP is requested", "guid":"139256-21885202@events.umich.edu", "permalink":"http:\/\/events.umich.edu\/event\/139256", "building_id":"1005047", "building_name":"Palmer Commons", "building_official_id":1005047, "campus_maps_id":"188", "campus_maps_link_path":"palmer-commons", "campus_maps_link":"https:\/\/maps.studentlife.umich.edu\/building\/palmer-commons", "room":"Great Lakes Room 100 Washtenaw Ave Ann Arbor, MI, 48109", "location_name":"Palmer Commons", "has_livestream":0, "cost":"", "tags":["Discussion","Free","Health & Wellness","Health Care","Health Professions","Health Science","Health Sciences","Interdisciplinary","Lecture","Life Science","Medicine","Pharmacy","Public Health","Social Work","Well-being"], "website":"https:\/\/pharmacy.umich.edu\/events\/mckesson-foundation-health-equity-speaker-series-dr-utibe-r-essien\/", "links":[ { "type":"other", "url":"https:\/\/pharmacy.umich.edu\/events\/mckesson-foundation-health-equity-speaker-series-dr-utibe-r-essien\/", "title":"College of Pharmacy website event listing" }, { "type":"registration", "url":"https:\/\/docs.google.com\/forms\/d\/e\/1FAIpQLSeQrDw_xhyXVtMnJlnGz5d9VfN6GXP5uVJksnLdie936lVErg\/viewform", "title":"RSVP form" }, { "type":"other", "url":"https:\/\/www.uressien.com\/", "title":"Utibe R.

The radii of these young planets are larger than older planets on similar orbital periods. The leading hypothesis is that these young planets have inflated atmospheres because they are still contracting. Inflated atmospheres are more susceptible to photoevaporation --- atmospheric removal driven by X-ray and ultraviolet (XUV) stellar irradiation. These effects are intensified in the earliest stages of planetary evolution, when young stars are more active and produce extreme XUV radiation on a variety of timescales. Even though it is challenging to study exoplanets around active stars, observational constraints of these targets provide crucial insights into our understanding of exoplanet formation and evolution. In this talk, I will present several benchmark studies of young stars and their planets spanning from the ultraviolet to the infrared. I will present early results of atmospheric follow-up characterization of young short-period exoplanets from my JWST KRONOS program and an overview of our search for atmospheric escape. Finally, I will highlight the role that stellar flares may play in shaping the evolution of these planets and future steps in understanding these challenging young systems.", "occurrence_notes":null, "guid":"141457-21888822@events.umich.edu", "permalink":"http:\/\/events.umich.edu\/event\/141457", "building_id":"1000167", "building_name":"West Hall", "building_official_id":1000167, "campus_maps_id":"163", "campus_maps_link_path":"west-hall", "campus_maps_link":"https:\/\/maps.studentlife.umich.edu\/building\/west-hall", "room":"411", "location_name":"West Hall", "has_livestream":0, "cost":"", "tags":["astronomy","astrophysics"], "website":"https:\/\/lsa.umich.edu\/astro", "links":[ { "type":"other", "url":"https:\/\/lsa.umich.edu\/astro", "title":null } ], "sponsors":[ { "group_name":"Department of Astronomy", "group_id":"1178", "website":"" }, { "group_name":"Department of Physics", "group_id":"1965", "website":"" } ], "image_url":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/attachments\/2025\/11\/event_141457_original-1.png", "image_description":"Dr. Adina Feinstein", "styled_images":{ "event_thumb":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/resolve\/event_thumb\/media\/attachments\/2025\/11\/event_141457_original-1.png", "event_large":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_large\/media\/attachments\/2025\/11\/event_141457_original-1.png", "event_large_2x":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_large_2x\/media\/attachments\/2025\/11\/event_141457_original-1.png", "event_large_lightbox":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_large_lightbox\/media\/attachments\/2025\/11\/event_141457_original-1.png", "group_thumb":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/resolve\/group_thumb\/media\/attachments\/2025\/11\/event_141457_original-1.png", "group_thumb_square":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/resolve\/group_thumb_square\/media\/attachments\/2025\/11\/event_141457_original-1.png", "group_large":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/resolve\/group_large\/media\/attachments\/2025\/11\/event_141457_original-1.png", "group_large_lightbox":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/resolve\/group_large_lightbox\/media\/attachments\/2025\/11\/event_141457_original-1.png", "event_large_crop":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/resolve\/event_large_crop\/media\/attachments\/2025\/11\/event_141457_original-1.png", "event_list":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/resolve\/event_list\/media\/attachments\/2025\/11\/event_141457_original-1.png", "event_list_2x":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_list_2x\/media\/attachments\/2025\/11\/event_141457_original-1.png", "event_grid":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_grid\/media\/attachments\/2025\/11\/event_141457_original-1.png", "event_grid_2x":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/resolve\/event_grid_2x\/media\/attachments\/2025\/11\/event_141457_original-1.png", "event_feature_large":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/resolve\/event_feature_large\/media\/attachments\/2025\/11\/event_141457_original-1.png", "event_feature_thumb":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/resolve\/event_feature_thumb\/media\/attachments\/2025\/11\/event_141457_original-1.png" }, "qr_code_url":"http:\/\/events.umich.edu\/event\/141457\/qrcode.png", "occurrence_count":1, "first_occurrence":21888822 } , { "id":"141068-21888077", "datetime_modified":"20251023T150805", "datetime_start":"20251113T160000", "datetime_end":"20251113T173000", "has_end_time":1, "date_start":"2025-11-13", "date_end":"2025-11-13", "time_start":"16:00:00", "time_end":"17:30:00", "time_zone":"America\/Detroit", "event_title":"Emerging Democracy Roundtable.

Some say it was invented from kitchen scraps in a California mining kitchen during the Gold Rush. Others claim it was an American invention\u2014journalist Jennifer 8. Lee calls it \"the greatest hoax played by one culture on another.\"\r\n\r\nBut what if I told you that chop suey was once a popular banquet food in China\u2014and that it was enjoyed not only by ruling elites, but by the emperor himself? Far from being leftovers or cultural deception, chop suey graced imperial tables and wealthy merchant feasts for centuries before crossing the Pacific.\r\n\r\nThis talk explores the gourmet Chinese roots of chop suey through old banquet menus and imperial records, tracing its surprising journey from Qing dynasty haute cuisine to American convenience food. In recovering this forgotten history, it offers a new view of how Chinese American cuisine actually emerged\u2014and reveals how crucial the study of foreign languages is for telling the American story.\r\n\r\nProfessor August E.

At the same time, widening income inequality within countries, increased financial market volatility and the decline of manufacturing in the wealthiest of countries has produced a backlash to globalization.

Archive Archaeology at Karanis: Recontextualizing the Michigan Documentation: Tyler Johnson, Postdoctoral Fellow", "event_subtitle":"Tyler Johnson, Postdoctoral Fellow", "event_type":"Lecture \/ Discussion", "event_type_id":"13", "description":"Although far from modern standards, the University of Michigan excavations at Karanis (1924\u20131935) employed advanced recording techniques for their time. Documenting the site\u2019s evolution through a system of \u201clevels,\u201d the excavators left behind a dense archival record of photographs, tables, notes, drawings, plans, artifact inventories, and survey results. Housed at the Kelsey Museum of Archaeology, this documentation has been consulted for a century but never systematically analyzed or disseminated. The most authoritative source remains an unfinished manuscript by Enoch Peterson (a professor at Michigan from 1924 to 1962), never published or made publicly available.\r\n\r\nToday, a revival of interest in Karanis has created a demand for better curation and accessibility of these records. In response, researchers at the Kelsey Museum are leading a digital initiative with two objectives. First, drawing upon legacy survey data and new radiocarbon results, we are using the game engine Unity to reconstruct and reinterpret the site\u2019s chronological evolution in three dimensions. Second, we are transforming Peterson\u2019s manuscript and related materials into an interactive, open-access resource. These collaborative efforts between Kelsey researchers, staff, graduate, and undergraduate students go beyond digitization, requiring the restructuring and reassessment of excavation data within an updated framework. \r\n\r\nAs we integrate new insights and methodologies, our work sometimes calls the Michigan excavators\u2019 original interpretations into question. This raises the need to balance faithful preservation of archival materials with that of reassessing the excavation results through contemporary archaeological lenses. This lecture explores the challenges and possibilities of conducting \u201carchive archaeology\u201d at Karanis, creating new tools for exploring, cross-referencing, and reinterpreting this essential legacy dataset.\r\n\r\nTyler Johnson is a postdoctoral fellow with the Kelsey Museum of Archaeology. He completed his PhD at the University of Michigan in 2023, focusing on the transformation of domestic buildings during Late Antiquity in the region around Rome. He has conducted fieldwork at Gabii, Italy, since 2013, where he now serves as director of topography and digital data. Tyler has also participated in a range of excavations and digital humanities projects in Italy, Albania, and the United States. His specializations include 3D modeling, database curation, and the use of game engines and graphical interfaces in archaeological and cultural heritage research. At the Kelsey, Tyler is a member of the AGROS project, an international collaboration investigating ancient diet through the analysis of organic materials from Karanis, Egypt, where the University of Michigan carried out excavations in the 1920s and 1930s. His work focuses on the archaeological contextualization of organic samples selected for chemical analysis, integrating the complex records of this legacy dataset with new methods in 3D modeling and data visualization.\r\n\r\nFAST (Field Archaeology Series on Thursday) Lectures are free and open to the public. This event will take place in Room 125 of the Kelsey Museum\u2019s Newberry Hall. Light refreshments and food will be provided at 5:30 PM, with the lecture starting at 6:00 PM.\r\n\r\nIf you have any questions or concerns regarding accessing this event, please visit our accessibility page at https:\/\/myumi.ch\/zwPkd or contact the education office by calling (734) 647-4167.

Martinez worked in the agricultural fields of Washington state\u2014a formative experience that would later shape the core of his artistic practice. After completing his education in Los Angeles, culminating in an MFA in Drawing and Painting from California State University Long Beach, Martinez developed a body of work that reflects the dignity, hardship, and invisibility of the workers who harvest America\u2019s food.\nMartinez is best known for his powerful portraits rendered on discarded produce boxes collected from grocery stores, which he transforms into evocative, layered compositions. His work draws from the visual language of 1930s Social Realism, updated through a contemporary lens and materials that speak to both economic precarity and cultural resilience. By incorporating found objects and working at the intersection of figuration, installation, and sculpture, Martinez calls attention to the dissonance between agricultural abundance and the exploitation of those who make it possible. His art challenges viewers to consider the systems behind the food they consume, and the people whose labor sustains them\u2014many of whom remain undocumented and unprotected.\nIn this talk, Martinez will share the personal history that informs his practice, from his journey as a farmworker to his development as an artist. He will discuss the evolution of his use of unconventional materials, the political and emotional layers embedded in his subject matter, and the importance of bearing witness through art. Whether painting directly onto cardboard or building immersive installations, Martinez\u2019s work offers a poignant meditation on labor, identity, and the complicated narratives embedded in the American agricultural landscape.\nPresented in partnership with the Institute for the Humanities.\nThis project was made possible by a grant from the Arts Initiative at the University of Michigan.\nSeries presenting partners: Detroit PBS, ALL ARTS, and PBS Books.

Chandler Davis: Activism and the Struggle for Academic Freedom.\"\r\n\r\nThe essays collected in this book honor H. Chandler Davis (1926-2022), a University of Michigan faculty member who became a symbol of principled dissent when suspended and fired in 1954 for refusing to testify about his political affiliations to the House Un-American Activities Committee. Invoking academic freedom and First Amendment protection, Davis was convicted of contempt of Congress. He served six months in prison before moving to Canada, where he established himself as a brilliant mathematician, prolific writer, and ardent and much beloved advocate for justice.\r\n\r\nAt a time when a new McCarthyism has come roaring back to threaten free inquiry everywhere, the 12 contributors to this book argue against censorship, the suppression of protest, the policed and surveilled campus, the self-silencing of \u201cinstitutional neutrality,\u201d and other enemies of academic freedom.

Through an operational chain analysis of tattooing and comparison with tattoo traditions in North America, this research seeks to understand the technical and symbolic processes that gave meaning to these bodily marks.

Many ribbons in nature, from seed pods to molecular assemblies, have non-trivial internal geometry, making them incompatible with Euclidean space.

In this talk, I will show how to model these bodies mathematically, discuss the various phenomena they exhibit (and how they are related to the Gauss\u2013Codazzi equations from surface theory), and present some recent rigorous results via Gamma convergence (+ open questions).

Rappaport Lecture Series, \u201cBananapocalypse: Un\/Making Plantation Capitalism,\u201d with Assistant Professor Alyssa Paredes:\r\n\r\n\u201cExistential crises hang over the producers of the world\u2019s food. Many of these challenges are self-inflicted. In the banana-growing regions of the Southern Philippines, which produce fruit for export to Japanese markets, plantations unleash pesticide drift, food waste, water effluent, and fungal pathogens into the surroundings. The plantocratic elite systematically shirks responsibility for these excesses, using legal contracts, scientific conventions, and standards of trade to frame them as \u201cexternal\u201d to their supply chains. However, plantation management is regularly proven wrong in its assumption that the things they try to push downstream will not double back to haunt them. Everyday actors on the plantations\u2019 peripheries transform the devices designed to work against them into openings for intervention. Their efforts implore critical scholars of the environment and of global economies to take seriously the possibility that Big Ag\u2019s increasingly frequent failures to reproduce itself are more than just minor inconveniences to business-as-usual. In this series of lectures, I trace the afterlives of the externalities that commodity production obscures, disguises, or otherwise erases from its ambit of accountability. In so doing, I offer an ethnographic model for turning the commodity studies model, inherited from generations of anthropologists, inside-out.\u201d\r\n\r\nRappaport lectures will take place on the following fall Fridays from 3 to 4:30 p.m. in 411 West Hall.

They provide diverse and complex aquatic ecosystems, unique aesthetic appeal, and readily accessible freshwater sources to societal use. Although considered \u201clentic\u201d (hydrologically stationary), lakes are often highly dynamic and are an integrated component of the global drainage system. They interact with river discharge, groundwater fluxes, and glacial mass balances, and function as both \u201csentinels\u201d and \u201cregulators\u201d of climatic and environmental changes. A substantial proportion of the global lakes are also manmade reservoirs, which regulate natural streamflow and affect downstream water supply and sediment regimes. Tracking the dynamics of lake water storage is fundamental to understanding the spatiotemporal disparity in global freshwater resources, which is essential for addressing the increasing challenge in water security during the Anthropocene.\r\n\r\nThis seminar will provide a global perspective on the abundance and recent (decadal-scale) changes of lake water resources, as well as their implications to catchment hydrology, lacustrine management, and broader societal impacts. The seminar will identify the latest advances in data infrastructure for global lake monitoring, and will discuss the importance and challenges of data and method synergy from multi-mission Earth-observing satellites, including the newly launched Surface Water and Ocean Topography (SWOT) mission. The recent global lake dynamics will be attributed to primary driving mechanisms including anthropogenic climate change, climate variability, and direct human water consumption and managements. Hotspots such as arid hinterlands and High Mountain Asia will be highlighted to further illustrate the essential roles of lake water resources for regional water security and a holistic understanding of the global hydrological cycle under climate change.", "occurrence_notes":null, "guid":"141193-21888353@events.umich.edu", "permalink":"http:\/\/events.umich.edu\/event\/141193", "building_id":"1000188", "building_name":"1100 North University Building", "building_official_id":1000188, "campus_maps_id":"628", "campus_maps_link_path":"1100-north-university-building", "campus_maps_link":"https:\/\/maps.studentlife.umich.edu\/building\/1100-north-university-building", "room":"1528", "location_name":"1100 North University Building", "has_livestream":0, "cost":"", "tags":["Earth And Environmental Sciences"], "website":"", "links":[ ], "sponsors":[ { "group_name":"Earth and Environmental Sciences", "group_id":"3170", "website":"http:\/\/www.lsa.umich.edu\/earth" } ], "image_url":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/attachments\/2025\/10\/event_141193_original-1.webp", "image_description":"A person in glasses smiles in front of a field of sunflowers", "styled_images":{ "event_thumb":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_thumb\/media\/attachments\/2025\/10\/event_141193_original-1.webp", "event_large":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_large\/media\/attachments\/2025\/10\/event_141193_original-1.webp", "event_large_2x":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_large_2x\/media\/attachments\/2025\/10\/event_141193_original-1.webp", "event_large_lightbox":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_large_lightbox\/media\/attachments\/2025\/10\/event_141193_original-1.webp", "group_thumb":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/group_thumb\/media\/attachments\/2025\/10\/event_141193_original-1.webp", "group_thumb_square":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/group_thumb_square\/media\/attachments\/2025\/10\/event_141193_original-1.webp", "group_large":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/group_large\/media\/attachments\/2025\/10\/event_141193_original-1.webp", "group_large_lightbox":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/group_large_lightbox\/media\/attachments\/2025\/10\/event_141193_original-1.webp", "event_large_crop":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_large_crop\/media\/attachments\/2025\/10\/event_141193_original-1.webp", "event_list":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_list\/media\/attachments\/2025\/10\/event_141193_original-1.webp", "event_list_2x":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_list_2x\/media\/attachments\/2025\/10\/event_141193_original-1.webp", "event_grid":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_grid\/media\/attachments\/2025\/10\/event_141193_original-1.webp", "event_grid_2x":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_grid_2x\/media\/attachments\/2025\/10\/event_141193_original-1.webp", "event_feature_large":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_feature_large\/media\/attachments\/2025\/10\/event_141193_original-1.webp", "event_feature_thumb":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_feature_thumb\/media\/attachments\/2025\/10\/event_141193_original-1.webp" }, "qr_code_url":"http:\/\/events.umich.edu\/event\/141193\/qrcode.png", "occurrence_count":1, "first_occurrence":21888353 } , { "id":"137787-21880771", "datetime_modified":"20250828T110035", "datetime_start":"20251114T160000", "datetime_end":"20251114T173000", "has_end_time":1, "date_start":"2025-11-14", "date_end":"2025-11-14", "time_start":"16:00:00", "time_end":"17:30:00", "time_zone":"America\/Detroit", "event_title":"CAS Guest Lecture.

Foregrounding the work of Armenian women's organizations, the authors trace minoritarian politics and the shifting relationships among doubly minoritized Armenian female subjects, Iran's central nodes of power, and the Irano-Armenian patriarchal institutions of church and political parties.\r\n \r\nEngaging broader considerations around modernization, nationalism, and feminism, this book makes a conceptually rich contribution to how we think about the history of women and minoritized peoples. Berberian and Grigor read archival, textual, visual, and oral history sources together and against one another to challenge conventional notions of \"the archive\" and transform silences and absences into audible and visual presences. Understanding minoritarian politics as formulated by women through their various forms of public and intellectual activisms, this book provides a groundbreaking intervention in Iran's history of modernization, Armenian diasporic history, and Iranian and Armenian feminist historiography.\r\n \r\nAUTHOR BIOS\r\n \r\n Houri Berberian is Professor of History, Meghrouni Family Presidential Chair in Armenian Studies, and Director of the Center for Armenian Studies at the University of California, Irvine. Her research focuses on late nineteenth\/early twentieth-century Armenian history, especially revolutionary movements and women and gender. Her books include *Armenians and the Iranian Constitutional Revolution of 1905-1911: The Love for Freedom Has No Fatherland* (2001); and the multiple award-winning *Roving Revolutionaries: Armenians and the Connected Revolutions in the Russian, Iranian, and Ottoman Worlds* (2019); and *Reflections of Armenian Identity in History and Historiography* (2018), coedited with Touraj Daryaee. Her most recent book, for which she has received grants from the Persian Heritage Foundation, the Calouste Gulbenkian Foundation, and the National Association for Armenian Studies and Research, is *The Armenian Woman, Minoritarian Agency, and the Making of Iranian Modernity* (2025), coauthored with Talinn Grigor.\r\n \r\n Talinn Grigor is Professor of Art History in the Department of Art and Art History at the University of California, Davis. Her research focuses on 18th- to 20th-century architectural and art histories through postcolonial, race, feminist, and critical theories grounded in Iran, Armeno-Iran, Armenia, and Parsi India. Her books include the winner of the Saidi-Sirjani Book Award, *The Persian Revival* (2021), *Contemporary Iranian Art* (2014), *Building Iran* (2009), and *Persian Kingship and Architecture* (2015), coedited with Sussan Babaie. Grigor has received fellowships from the National Gallery of Art, Getty Research Institute, Cornell\u2019s Humanities Center, Princeton\u2019s Persian Center, MIT\u2019s Aga Khan Program, SSRC, and Persian Heritage and Calouste Gulbenkian foundations. Her last book is coauthored with Houri Berberian, *The Armenian Woman*, *Minoritarian Agency*, and the *Making of Iranian Modernity, 1860\u20131979 *(2025). Her current book project, *The Hyphenated Architect*, examines the pivotal role of ethnically Armenian architects and artists in the proliferation of the Modern Movement in West Asia.\r\n\r\nAccommodation: If there is anything we can do to make this event accessible to you, please contact us.
