play a critical role in many problems of chemical dynamics in condensed phases. In this presentation, I will introduce recent progress from our group on the development and application of the hierarchical equations of motion (HEOM) method, a non-perturbative framework for accurately capturing the influence of environmental degrees of freedom on quantum systems. I will first highlight recent algorithmic advances that extend the method\u2019s applicability to more complex systems. These include efficient treatments of the exponential decomposition of bath correlation functions for general spectral densities and low-temperature conditions, as well as the integration of tensor network techniques to enable HEOM propagation involving thousands of effective modes. Several applications of the HEOM method will then be presented, including charge transport and separation dynamics in organic semiconductors; quantum coherence in excitation energy transfer in photosynthetic light-harvesting complexes and related ultrafast spectroscopic phenomena; and the dynamics of systems under strong light-matter interactions.", "occurrence_notes":null, "guid":"136441-21878684@events.umich.edu", "permalink":"http:\/\/events.umich.edu\/event\/136441", "building_id":"1000158", "building_name":"Chemistry Dow Lab", "building_official_id":1000158, "campus_maps_id":"34", "campus_maps_link_path":"willard-h-dow-chemistry-laboratory", "campus_maps_link":"https:\/\/maps.studentlife.umich.edu\/building\/willard-h-dow-chemistry-laboratory", "room":"1640", "location_name":"Chemistry Dow Lab", "has_livestream":0, "cost":"", "tags":["Chemistry"], "website":"", "links":[ ], "sponsors":[ { "group_name":"Department of Chemistry", "group_id":"3761", "website":"https:\/\/lsa.umich.edu\/chem" }, { "group_name":"Physical Chemistry", "group_id":"4390", "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\/136441\/qrcode.png", "occurrence_count":1, "first_occurrence":21878684 } , { "id":"136457-21878733", "datetime_modified":"20250715T093619", "datetime_start":"20250724T130000", "datetime_end":"20250724T150000", "has_end_time":1, "date_start":"2025-07-24", "date_end":"2025-07-24", "time_start":"13:00:00", "time_end":"15:00:00", "time_zone":"America\/Detroit", "event_title":"David Fuller -

products\r\n\r\nRyan Shenvi Abstract: Natural product (NP) total synthesis involves experimental discovery and decision-making at every stage: why this route and not another? Why this intermediate and not its close analog? Why this NP, optimized for the producer organism\u2019s survival in its ecological niche, and not a close analog, optimized for therapeutic use? The vast numbers of options surrounding all possible choices exceed human capacity for evaluation. Our group has begun to make these decisions with the aid of computation. These calculations, which contain numerous approximations, are not taken at face value, but instead subjected to experimental interrogation. If correct, however, computational predictions can greatly simplify our choice of reagent, choice of intermediate (subTGT), or even choice of NP target (TGT).", "occurrence_notes":null, "guid":"136285-21878394@events.umich.edu", "permalink":"http:\/\/events.umich.edu\/event\/136285", "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":"Forum Hall", "location_name":"Palmer Commons", "has_livestream":0, "cost":"", "tags":["Chemistry"], "website":"", "links":[ ], "sponsors":[ { "group_name":"Department of Chemistry", "group_id":"3761", "website":"https:\/\/lsa.umich.edu\/chem" }, { "group_name":"Organic Chemistry", "group_id":"4389", "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\/136285\/qrcode.png", "occurrence_count":1, "first_occurrence":21878394 } , { "id":"136971-21879383", "datetime_modified":"20250804T095356", "datetime_start":"20250814T140000", "datetime_end":"20250814T160000", "has_end_time":1, "date_start":"2025-08-14", "date_end":"2025-08-14", "time_start":"14:00:00", "time_end":"16:00:00", "time_zone":"America\/Detroit", "event_title":"Andrew LaDuca -

Yet safety is far more than a set of rules. It is a rich domain of scientific inquiry, human behavior, organizational culture, and passionate collaboration. While safety principles inform research across all American Chemical Society (ACS) journals, they find dedicated focus in ACS Chemical Health & Safety (ACS CHAS). In this presentation, Mary Beth Mulcahy, Editor-in-Chief of ACS CHAS, will share stories of articles that have reshaped her own thinking\u2014from a graduate student who lost consciousness while collecting dry ice, to an international collaboration between Stanford University and India\u2019s Institute of Pharmaceutical Education and Research following a serious incident with acryloyl chloride, to a candid discussion of a paper the journal ultimately chose not to publish. Through these examples, the presentation will invite chemists to see publishing safety articles as a vibrant and essential part of advancing chemical research.", "occurrence_notes":null, "guid":"136101-21877850@events.umich.edu", "permalink":"http:\/\/events.umich.edu\/event\/136101", "building_id":"1000158", "building_name":"Chemistry Dow Lab", "building_official_id":1000158, "campus_maps_id":"34", "campus_maps_link_path":"willard-h-dow-chemistry-laboratory", "campus_maps_link":"https:\/\/maps.studentlife.umich.edu\/building\/willard-h-dow-chemistry-laboratory", "room":"1800", "location_name":"Chemistry Dow Lab", "has_livestream":0, "cost":"", "tags":["Chemistry"], "website":"", "links":[ ], "sponsors":[ { "group_name":"Department of Chemistry", "group_id":"3761", "website":"https:\/\/lsa.umich.edu\/chem" } ], "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\/136101\/qrcode.png", "occurrence_count":1, "first_occurrence":21877850 } , { "id":"138196-21882563", "datetime_modified":"20250826T145809", "datetime_start":"20250829T170000", "datetime_end":"20250829T180000", "has_end_time":1, "date_start":"2025-08-29", "date_end":"2025-08-29", "time_start":"17:00:00", "time_end":"18:00:00", "time_zone":"America\/Detroit", "event_title":"QuantUM Mass Meeting", "occurrence_title":"", "combined_title":"QuantUM Mass Meeting", "event_subtitle":"", "event_type":"Rally \/ Mass Meeting", "event_type_id":"9", "description":"\ud83d\udce3 Join QuantUM in USB 1230 for our Fall 25 mass meeting!

Additionally, geochemical weathering, environmental contaminant capture, cloud droplet surface electric fields, and interfacial chemistry of materials provide the vast motivations for studies of interfacial ion pairing, binding, and surface prevalence and organization of molecules and ion assemblies at interfaces. This area of science continues to be controversial although there is growing but limited consensus: case in point, reaction rate enhancements in microdroplets. In this presentation, interfacial structure of liquid surfaces and the driving forces of such are presented using vibrational sum frequency generation spectroscopy (VSFG), second harmonic generation (SHG), Brewster angle microscopy (BAM), surface potential, surface tension, polarized Raman, and infrared reflection absorption spectroscopy (IRRAS). Some focus is on Fe(III), Al(III), Ca(II), Mg(II), and anions from the halide series to sulfate. Binding mechanisms and ion surface activity are not necessarily correlated in that the driving forces of electrostatics and nonspecific dispersion compete with surprising outcomes. Inherent and applied electric field data from aqueous surfaces is also explored to reveal inherent surface charge that varies significantly with surface structural assembly.", "occurrence_notes":null, "guid":"138385-21882884@events.umich.edu", "permalink":"http:\/\/events.umich.edu\/event\/138385", "building_id":"1000158", "building_name":"Chemistry Dow Lab", "building_official_id":1000158, "campus_maps_id":"34", "campus_maps_link_path":"willard-h-dow-chemistry-laboratory", "campus_maps_link":"https:\/\/maps.studentlife.umich.edu\/building\/willard-h-dow-chemistry-laboratory", "room":"1640", "location_name":"Chemistry Dow Lab", "has_livestream":0, "cost":"", "tags":["Chemistry"], "website":"https:\/\/chemistry.osu.edu\/people\/allen.697", "links":[ { "type":"other", "url":"https:\/\/chemistry.osu.edu\/people\/allen.697", "title":"Heather Allen Website" } ], "sponsors":[ { "group_name":"Department of Chemistry", "group_id":"3761", "website":"https:\/\/lsa.umich.edu\/chem" } ], "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\/138385\/qrcode.png", "occurrence_count":1, "first_occurrence":21882884 } , { "id":"138409-21882914", "datetime_modified":"20250909T092839", "datetime_start":"20250918T160000", "datetime_end":"20250918T171500", "has_end_time":1, "date_start":"2025-09-18", "date_end":"2025-09-18", "time_start":"16:00:00", "time_end":"17:15:00", "time_zone":"America\/Detroit", "event_title":"Probing Molecular Interactions with Label-Free Methods: Biomimetic Interfaces, Machine Learning and New Forms of Plasmonic Sensing", "occurrence_title":"", "combined_title":"Probing Molecular Interactions with Label-Free Methods: Biomimetic Interfaces, Machine Learning and New Forms of Plasmonic Sensing: Quan Cheng (UC Riverside)", "event_subtitle":"Quan Cheng (UC Riverside)", "event_type":"Workshop \/ Seminar", "event_type_id":"21", "description":"Understanding protein-ligand interactions at the molecular level is critical for elucidating disease mechanisms and enabling early diagnosis of conditions such as cancer, neurological disorders, and neurodegenerative diseases.

Our research integrates biomimetic interface engineering, novel plasmonic sensing schemes, and machine learning-based data analysis to address complex analytical challenges. We employ supported lipid bilayers to investigate protein interactions under relevant conditions, including curved membrane geometries. A glycolipid microarray platform for SPR imaging will be presented for the detection of multiple sclerosis biomarkers, where machine learning algorithms were used to resolve cross-reactivity issues that hinder diagnostic specificity. Additional topics will include new chip designs, 3D-printed optical components, and the use of unconventional aluminum substrates in the Kretschmann configuration for enhanced sensing.

A New Era in Quantum Optics: From Topological Photonics to Correlated Materials\r\nAbstract: Quantum optics investigates the interactions between light and matter at their most fundamental level. In recent years, we have witnessed remarkable advances in controlling individual photons and other excitations, such as spin, charge, excitons, and phonons, in solid-state systems. While this progress has primarily been driven by quantum information science (QIS), its implications extend far beyond QIS. In this talk, I will present two key examples. First, I will review the field of topological photonics, highlighting how optical nonlinearity can give rise to unique bosonic phenomena\u2014without electronic counterparts\u2014such as topological frequency combs. Next, I will discuss how optical control techniques can introduce a radically new approach for preparing, detecting, and manipulating correlated electronic states. This includes new ways of inducing and enhancing magnetism, superconductivity, and topological phases in matter, as well as the prospect of addressing some of the long-standing questions in the field.\r\n\r\nBio: Mohammad Hafezi is a Minta Martin Professor with a joint appointment in the Physics and Electrical and Computer Engineering Departments at the University of Maryland and a fellow of the Joint Quantum Institute.

These emissions arise not only due to the energy requirements of chemical synthesis, but since hydrocarbon feedstocks can be overoxidized or used as hydrogen sources. Using renewable electricity to drive chemical synthesis may provide a route to overcoming these challenges, enabling synthetic routes which operate at benign conditions and utilize sustainable inputs. We are developing an electrosynthetic toolkit in which distributed feedstocks, including carbon dioxide, dinitrogen, water, and renewable electricity, can be converted into diverse fuels, chemicals, and materials. \r\n\r\nIn this presentation, we will share recent advances made in our laboratory on nitrogen fixation to synthesize ammonia at ambient conditions. Specifically, our lab has investigated a continuous lithium-mediated approach to ammonia synthesis and understood the reaction network that controls selectivity. We have developed non-aqueous gas-diffusion electrodes which lead to high rates of ammonia synthesis at ambient conditions. We will also discuss how water can be used as a sustainable oxygen-atom source and how carbon dioxide can be used to achieve carbon chain extension. These findings will be discussed in the context of a broader range of electrosynthetic transformations which could lead to local and on-demand production of critical chemicals and materials.", "occurrence_notes":null, "guid":"138428-21882933@events.umich.edu", "permalink":"http:\/\/events.umich.edu\/event\/138428", "building_id":"1000158", "building_name":"Chemistry Dow Lab", "building_official_id":1000158, "campus_maps_id":"34", "campus_maps_link_path":"willard-h-dow-chemistry-laboratory", "campus_maps_link":"https:\/\/maps.studentlife.umich.edu\/building\/willard-h-dow-chemistry-laboratory", "room":"1640", "location_name":"Chemistry Dow Lab", "has_livestream":0, "cost":"", "tags":["Chemistry"], "website":"https:\/\/cce.caltech.edu\/people\/karthish-manthiram", "links":[ { "type":"other", "url":"https:\/\/cce.caltech.edu\/people\/karthish-manthiram", "title":"Karthish Manthiram Website" } ], "sponsors":[ { "group_name":"Department of Chemistry", "group_id":"3761", "website":"https:\/\/lsa.umich.edu\/chem" }, { "group_name":"Organic Chemistry", "group_id":"4389", "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\/138428\/qrcode.png", "occurrence_count":1, "first_occurrence":21882933 } , { "id":"140131-21886661", "datetime_modified":"20251001T112811", "datetime_start":"20251008T090000", "datetime_end":"20251008T100000", "has_end_time":1, "date_start":"2025-10-08", "date_end":"2025-10-08", "time_start":"09:00:00", "time_end":"10:00:00", "time_zone":"America\/Detroit", "event_title":"SCSAP Hosts: Stellaromics Inc.

On the theoretical side, I will discuss hardware-efficient implementations of error correction leveraging unique features of neutral atom qubits. I will also present experimental realizations of these concepts with physical and logical qubits, as well as advances in the design and implementation of robust entangling gates. Finally, I will discuss recent results from a second-generation tweezer array capable of rapid, continuous mid-circuit atom replacement, and sketch a path towards unlimited-depth fault-tolerant quantum circuits. \r\n\r\nBio\r\nJeff Thompson is an Associate Professor of Electrical and Computer Engineering at Princeton, and is an associated faculty member in the Physics and in the Princeton Materials Institute. His research focuses on developing scalable quantum technologies based on atomic qubits. His group pioneered ytterbium (Yb) neutral atom qubits through a research program spanning fundamental atomic spectroscopy, the design and implementation of record-fidelity quantum gates, logical qubit circuits and a novel, hardware-efficient fault-tolerant quantum computing architecture based on erasure conversion. Thompson\u2019s group is also pursuing the development of modular quantum interconnects using both neutral atom qubits and solid-state rare earth ion defects. In 2024, Thompson co-founded Logiqal, Inc. to pursue the development of large-scale modular quantum computers based on Yb qubits.", "occurrence_notes":"https:\/\/umich.zoom.us\/j\/91548361604?jst=2", "guid":"135177-21876457@events.umich.edu", "permalink":"http:\/\/events.umich.edu\/event\/135177", "building_id":"1000404", "building_name":"Michigan Memorial Phoenix Project", "building_official_id":1000404, "campus_maps_id":"60", "campus_maps_link_path":"michigan-memorial-phoenix-project-laboratory", "campus_maps_link":"https:\/\/maps.studentlife.umich.edu\/building\/michigan-memorial-phoenix-project-laboratory", "room":"2000PML", "location_name":"Michigan Memorial Phoenix Project", "has_livestream":1, "livestream_type":"zoom", "livetream_require_login":0, "livestream_id":"915483616042", "livestream_link":"https:\/\/umich.zoom.us\/j\/915483616042", "cost":"", "tags":["Chemistry"], "website":"", "links":[ ], "sponsors":[ { "group_name":"Quantum Research Institute", "group_id":"5043", "website":"" }, { "group_name":"Department of Physics", "group_id":"1965", "website":"" }, { "group_name":"Electrical and Computer Engineering", "group_id":"3153", "website":"http:\/\/www.ece.engin.umich.edu" }, { "group_name":"Computer Science and Engineering Division", "group_id":"3197", "website":"http:\/\/cse.umich.edu" }, { "group_name":"Applied Physics", "group_id":"3606", "website":"" }, { "group_name":"Department of Chemistry", "group_id":"3761", "website":"https:\/\/lsa.umich.edu\/chem" }, { "group_name":"Materials Science and Engineering", "group_id":"3942", "website":"" }, { "group_name":"Electrical Engineering and Computer Science", "group_id":"3989", "website":"" }, { "group_name":"Quantum Research Institute", "group_id":"5034", "website":"" } ], "image_url":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/attachments\/2025\/09\/event_135177_original-1.jpg", "image_description":"Seminar Flyer", "styled_images":{ "event_thumb":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/resolve\/event_thumb\/media\/attachments\/2025\/09\/event_135177_original-1.jpg", "event_large":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_large\/media\/attachments\/2025\/09\/event_135177_original-1.jpg", "event_large_2x":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_large_2x\/media\/attachments\/2025\/09\/event_135177_original-1.jpg", "event_large_lightbox":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_large_lightbox\/media\/attachments\/2025\/09\/event_135177_original-1.jpg", "group_thumb":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/resolve\/group_thumb\/media\/attachments\/2025\/09\/event_135177_original-1.jpg", "group_thumb_square":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/resolve\/group_thumb_square\/media\/attachments\/2025\/09\/event_135177_original-1.jpg", "group_large":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/resolve\/group_large\/media\/attachments\/2025\/09\/event_135177_original-1.jpg", "group_large_lightbox":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/group_large_lightbox\/media\/attachments\/2025\/09\/event_135177_original-1.jpg", "event_large_crop":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/resolve\/event_large_crop\/media\/attachments\/2025\/09\/event_135177_original-1.jpg", "event_list":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/resolve\/event_list\/media\/attachments\/2025\/09\/event_135177_original-1.jpg", "event_list_2x":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_list_2x\/media\/attachments\/2025\/09\/event_135177_original-1.jpg", "event_grid":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_grid\/media\/attachments\/2025\/09\/event_135177_original-1.jpg", "event_grid_2x":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/resolve\/event_grid_2x\/media\/attachments\/2025\/09\/event_135177_original-1.jpg", "event_feature_large":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/resolve\/event_feature_large\/media\/attachments\/2025\/09\/event_135177_original-1.jpg", "event_feature_thumb":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/resolve\/event_feature_thumb\/media\/attachments\/2025\/09\/event_135177_original-1.jpg" }, "qr_code_url":"http:\/\/events.umich.edu\/event\/135177\/qrcode.png", "occurrence_count":1, "first_occurrence":21876457 } , { "id":"138401-21882905", "datetime_modified":"20250911T095055", "datetime_start":"20251016T160000", "datetime_end":"20251016T171500", "has_end_time":1, "date_start":"2025-10-16", "date_end":"2025-10-16", "time_start":"16:00:00", "time_end":"17:15:00", "time_zone":"America\/Detroit", "event_title":"3D Nanoprinting via Controlled Assembly of Molecules", "occurrence_title":"", "combined_title":"3D Nanoprinting via Controlled Assembly of Molecules: Gang-yu Liu (UC Davis)", "event_subtitle":"Gang-yu Liu (UC Davis)", "event_type":"Workshop \/ Seminar", "event_type_id":"21", "description":"While various 3D printing technology has gained momentum in additive manufacturing, 3D nanoprinting remains challenging due to its requirement of high spatial precision. Combining scanning probe microscopy and nanolithography, microfluidic delivery, this presentation introduces a new chemistry means, known as \u201ccontrolled assembly of molecules\u201d, which enables 3D nanoprinting. While self-assembly of molecules is relatively well-known and frequently utilized in chemical synthesis and material science, controlled assembly of molecules represents a new concept and approach. The key to controlled assembly is the fact that ultra-small solution droplets exhibit different dynamics from those of larger ones. This new approach enables delivery of sub-femtoliter aqueous droplets containing designed molecules, which lead to well-defined features with dimensions as small as tens of nanometers, as illustrated in the Figure. The initial shape of the droplet and the concentration of solutes within the droplet dictate the final assembly of molecules due to the ultrafast evaporation rate and dynamic spatial confinement of the droplets. Applications of this technology in 3D nanoprinting are demonstrated. The level of control demonstrated in this work brings us closer to programmable synthesis for chemistry, as such benefit applications in materials science, additive manufacturing, and nanobiotechnology.", "occurrence_notes":null, "guid":"138401-21882905@events.umich.edu", "permalink":"http:\/\/events.umich.edu\/event\/138401", "building_id":"1000158", "building_name":"Chemistry Dow Lab", "building_official_id":1000158, "campus_maps_id":"34", "campus_maps_link_path":"willard-h-dow-chemistry-laboratory", "campus_maps_link":"https:\/\/maps.studentlife.umich.edu\/building\/willard-h-dow-chemistry-laboratory", "room":"1640", "location_name":"Chemistry Dow Lab", "has_livestream":0, "cost":"", "tags":["Chemistry"], "website":"https:\/\/chemistry.ucdavis.edu\/people\/gang-yu-liu", "links":[ { "type":"other", "url":"https:\/\/chemistry.ucdavis.edu\/people\/gang-yu-liu", "title":"Gang-yu Liu Website" } ], "sponsors":[ { "group_name":"Department of Chemistry", "group_id":"3761", "website":"https:\/\/lsa.umich.edu\/chem" }, { "group_name":"Physical Chemistry", "group_id":"4390", "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\/138401\/qrcode.png", "occurrence_count":1, "first_occurrence":21882905 } , { "id":"139269-21885218", "datetime_modified":"20250912T123303", "datetime_start":"20251020T110000", "datetime_end":"20251020T123000", "has_end_time":1, "date_start":"2025-10-20", "date_end":"2025-10-20", "time_start":"11:00:00", "time_end":"12:30:00", "time_zone":"America\/Detroit", "event_title":"16th Annual Diane Baker Alumni Award & Lecture", "occurrence_title":"", "combined_title":"16th Annual Diane Baker Alumni Award & Lecture: 2025 Diane Baker Alumni Awardee: Kate Emery (UMGCP Class of 2015)!!!!", "event_subtitle":"2025 Diane Baker Alumni Awardee: Kate Emery (UMGCP Class of 2015)!!!!", "event_type":"Conference \/ Symposium", "event_type_id":"5", "description":"Kate Emery, MS, CGC, is a licensed and certified genetic counselor and the Senior Clinical Program Manager of Genomics at Providence Health, one of the largest community hospital networks in the US.

Resolving their roles in each of these areas is challenging. For instance, the surface composition of aerosol droplets is key to predicting cloud droplet number concentrations, understanding atmospheric pollutant transformation, and interpreting observations of accelerated droplet chemistry. However, direct measurement of the surface properties of aerosol droplets is challenging, even though such measurements are necessary, as surface-bulk partitioning is strongly affected by the droplet\u2019s surface area-to-volume ratio. In this presentation, we will discuss new advances to characterise the equilibrium and dynamic surface properties of picolitre volume droplets, gaining important insights that bear directly on our understanding of how cloud droplets form in the atmosphere and how chemical reactions may proceed in finite-volume systems.

While much is known about the identity of these transient intermediates, the mechanistic factors that enable metal\u2013oxido species to accomplish such difficult transformations are still incomplete. For synthetic metal\u2013oxido species, C\u2013H bond cleavage is often mechanistically described as synchronous proton coupled electron transfer (PCET). However, data have emerged that suggest the basicity of the M\u2013 oxido unit is the key determinant in achieving enzymatic function, thus requiring alternative mechanisms whereby proton transfer (PT) has a more dominate role than electron transfer (ET). This presentation will describe our research to gain mechanistic insights into how metal\u2013oxido complexes activate C\u2013H bonds. We have used a series of well-characterized Mn(III)\u2013 and M(IV)\u2013oxido complexes to show that PT has a dominate role in the activation processes. Our experimental findings led to a proposed PCET mechanism with asynchronous transition states that is dominated by PT. To support this premise, a new semi-empirical free energy analysis was developed that can predict the relative contributions of PT and ET for a given set of substrates. These findings underscore why the basicity of M\u2013oxido units needs to be considered in C\u2013H functionalization.", "occurrence_notes":null, "guid":"138386-21882885@events.umich.edu", "permalink":"http:\/\/events.umich.edu\/event\/138386", "building_id":"1000158", "building_name":"Chemistry Dow Lab", "building_official_id":1000158, "campus_maps_id":"34", "campus_maps_link_path":"willard-h-dow-chemistry-laboratory", "campus_maps_link":"https:\/\/maps.studentlife.umich.edu\/building\/willard-h-dow-chemistry-laboratory", "room":"1640", "location_name":"Chemistry Dow Lab", "has_livestream":0, "cost":"", "tags":["Chemistry"], "website":"https:\/\/www.chem.uci.edu\/~aborovik\/Borovik_Homepage\/Andy_Borovik.html", "links":[ { "type":"other", "url":"https:\/\/www.chem.uci.edu\/~aborovik\/Borovik_Homepage\/Andy_Borovik.html", "title":"Andy Borovik Website" } ], "sponsors":[ { "group_name":"Department of Chemistry", "group_id":"3761", "website":"https:\/\/lsa.umich.edu\/chem" } ], "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\/138386\/qrcode.png", "occurrence_count":1, "first_occurrence":21882885 } , { "id":"140187-21886715", "datetime_modified":"20251009T075048", "datetime_start":"20251023T110000", "datetime_end":"20251023T120000", "has_end_time":1, "date_start":"2025-10-23", "date_end":"2025-10-23", "time_start":"11:00:00", "time_end":"12:00:00", "time_zone":"America\/Detroit", "event_title":"Quantum Research Institute | Cavity QED with molecular defects coupled to a photonic crystal cavity", "occurrence_title":"", "combined_title":"Quantum Research Institute | Cavity QED with molecular defects coupled to a photonic crystal cavity: Jonathan Hood (Purdue University)", "event_subtitle":"Jonathan Hood (Purdue University)", "event_type":"Workshop \/ Seminar", "event_type_id":"21", "description":"In-person: Michigan League - Henderson room (3rd Floor)\r\nZoom: https:\/\/umich.zoom.us\/j\/95387296886?jst=2\r\n\r\nAbstract:\r\nWe implement permanent spectral tuning to bring lifetime-limited emitters into collective resonance within an integrated photonic cavity. This addresses a fundamental challenge in solid-state cavity QED: combining multiple coherent quantum emitters with scalable nanophotonics. Our hybrid approach decouples emitter synthesis from nanophotonic fabrication using straightforward techniques that make cavity QED broadly accessible. Building on our previous demonstration of superradiance and subradiance in pairs of molecules [1], we now couple several coherent emitters to a single cavity mode through high doping densities. Optically-induced frequency shifting provides long-lived spectral control, allowing us to tune multiple molecules into resonance and demonstrate controlled formation of collective quantum states [2]. This establishes a scalable platform for many-body cavity QED and opens pathways toward chemically-designed quantum systems where optical properties are engineered through synthetic chemistry. We will also report on progress in our ultracold Li-Cs experiment, including cooling with the narrow 5D transition [3].\r\n[1] C. Lange, E. Daggett, V. Walther, L. Huang, and J.D.

technologies for ammonia synthesis using renewably sourced energy. Such approaches may some day lead to distributed on-demand fertilizer production and enable ammonia to be used as a zero-carbon alternative fuel. Our group has had an ongoing interest in fundamental studies of well-defined synthetic catalysts that mediate nitrogen reduction (N2R) to ammonia (or hydrazine). We are especially interested in the operative mechanisms by which these catalysts operate. Most recently, we have been pursuing the idea that proton-coupled electron transfer (PCET) pathways for N2R can be more thermally efficient than step-wise ET\/PT pathways and have tested this hypothesis via the development of electrochemical PCET (ePCET) mediators driven at potentials sufficiently anodic that the competing hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) is mitigated. We have also designed related electrocatalytic strategies that exploit an ET instead of a PCET mediator. Relatedly, we are studying catalytic systems that mediate photodriven and (photo)electrochemical N2R. Here, visible light rather than temperature, pressure, or electrochemical potential, provides the primary driving force needed for catalytic ammonia generation. Again, we are especially interested in the intimate mechanisms by which these various systems operate.", "occurrence_notes":null, "guid":"138396-21882894@events.umich.edu",

central role as both a regulator and an information carrier. Since RNA function depends on its 3D structure and conformational changes, research in this area focuses on the study of RNA structure along with its folding stability, kinetics, and interactions with metal ions and other molecules. Key questions include: How can the native fold be predicted from the sequence? For a given RNA target, how can RNA-small molecule interactions be predicted and potential drug candidates identified? Developing computational tools to address these questions remains challenging due to limited RNA structural and binding data. To predict 3D structure from sequence, we developed the Vfold pipeline by integrating statistical analysis of RNA structures and molecular dynamics simulations. The Vfold approach showed highly promising results at the international CASP16 competition for biomolecular structure predictions. To design RNA-targeted drugs, we developed the RLDOCK and SPRank pipelines for physics-based and data-driven predictions of ligand-RNA interactions. These models may become useful tools for understanding the structure-based mechanism of RNA function and for accelerating RNA-targeted therapeutic discovery.", "occurrence_notes":null, "guid":"138419-21882923@events.umich.edu", "permalink":"http:\/\/events.umich.edu\/event\/138419", "building_id":"1000158", "building_name":"Chemistry Dow Lab", "building_official_id":1000158, "campus_maps_id":"34", "campus_maps_link_path":"willard-h-dow-chemistry-laboratory", "campus_maps_link":"https:\/\/maps.studentlife.umich.edu\/building\/willard-h-dow-chemistry-laboratory", "room":"1640", "location_name":"Chemistry Dow Lab", "has_livestream":0, "cost":"", "tags":["Chemistry"], "website":"https:\/\/physics.missouri.edu\/people\/chen", "links":[ { "type":"other", "url":"https:\/\/physics.missouri.edu\/people\/chen", "title":"Shi-Jie Chen Website" } ], "sponsors":[ { "group_name":"Department of Chemistry", "group_id":"3761", "website":"https:\/\/lsa.umich.edu\/chem" }, { "group_name":"LSA Biophysics", "group_id":"3767", "website":"" }, { "group_name":"Chemical Biology", "group_id":"4385", "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\/138419\/qrcode.png", "occurrence_count":1, "first_occurrence":21882923 } , { "id":"138427-21882932", "datetime_modified":"20251020T131106", "datetime_start":"20251029T160000", "datetime_end":"20251029T171500", "has_end_time":1, "date_start":"2025-10-29", "date_end":"2025-10-29", "time_start":"16:00:00", "time_end":"17:15:00", "time_zone":"America\/Detroit", "event_title":"AbbVie Symposium with Michelle Chang \"Discovery and engineering of new enzymes for biocatalysis\"", "occurrence_title":"", "combined_title":"AbbVie Symposium with Michelle Chang \"Discovery and engineering of new enzymes for biocatalysis\": Michelle Chang (Princeton University)", "event_subtitle":"Michelle Chang (Princeton University)", "event_type":"Conference \/ Symposium", "event_type_id":"5", "description":"Living systems have evolved the capacity to carry out many chemical transformations of interest to synthetic chemistry if they could be redesigned for targeted purposes.

For example, gallium-based liquid metal alloys have remarkable properties: low melting point, water-like viscosity, low-toxicity, and effectively zero vapor pressure. Despite being liquid, these materials can be patterned into stretchable conductive circuits due to a thin, oxide skin that forms rapidly on its surface. This oxide can also be separated from the metal as a way to print thin conductors and dielectrics at ambient conditions. In addition to soft electronic conductors, we study soft, stretchable ionic conductors called \u2018ionogels\u2019 that contain ionic liquids.

Systems with more than 1000 qubits in 2D arrays and gate fidelities approaching three nines are being developed by many academic and industrial groups. I will present recent progress at University of Wisconsin-Madison and Infleqtion with physical and logical qubit encodings. Interesting challenges remain in scaling the size and performance to the levels needed for quantum utility. Ultimately a modular approach to quantum computation will enable scaling to millions of qubits, with inter-module connections enabled by photonic links. Recent results on entangling atoms with photons for scaling a modular architecture will be presented. \r\n\r\nBio:\r\nMark Saffman is a physicist working in the areas of atomic physics, quantum and nonlinear optics, and quantum information processing. His research team has been a pioneer in quantum computing with atomic qubits. They were the first to demonstrate a quantum CNOT gate for the deterministic entanglement of a pair of neutral atoms. This was done using interactions between highly excited Rydberg atoms. He is currently developing scalable arrays of neutral atoms for quantum computation, communication, and sensing applications. \r\nHe is the Johannes Rydberg Professor of Physics at the University of Wisconsin-Madison and has been recognized with an Alfred P. Sloan fellowship, a Vilas Associate Award, the WARF Innovation Award, and is a fellow of the American Physical Society, and Optica. He has been active in professional service including two decades as an Associate Editor at the Physical Review, and is the director of The Wisconsin Quantum Institute. He also serves as Chief Scientist for Quantum Information at Infleqtion.", "occurrence_notes":"https:\/\/umich.zoom.us\/j\/99333578305?jst=2", "guid":"135179-21876459@events.umich.edu", "permalink":"http:\/\/events.umich.edu\/event\/135179", "building_id":"1000404", "building_name":"Michigan Memorial Phoenix Project", "building_official_id":1000404, "campus_maps_id":"60", "campus_maps_link_path":"michigan-memorial-phoenix-project-laboratory", "campus_maps_link":"https:\/\/maps.studentlife.umich.edu\/building\/michigan-memorial-phoenix-project-laboratory", "room":"PML2000", "location_name":"Michigan Memorial Phoenix Project", "has_livestream":1, "livestream_type":"zoom", "livetream_require_login":0, "livestream_id":"993335783052", "livestream_link":"https:\/\/umich.zoom.us\/j\/993335783052", "cost":"", "tags":["Chemistry"], "website":"", "links":[ ], "sponsors":[ { "group_name":"Quantum Research Institute", "group_id":"5043", "website":"" }, { "group_name":"Department of Physics", "group_id":"1965", "website":"" }, { "group_name":"Electrical and Computer Engineering", "group_id":"3153", "website":"http:\/\/www.ece.engin.umich.edu" }, { "group_name":"Computer Science and Engineering Division", "group_id":"3197", "website":"http:\/\/cse.umich.edu" }, { "group_name":"Applied Physics", "group_id":"3606", "website":"" }, { "group_name":"Department of Chemistry", "group_id":"3761", "website":"https:\/\/lsa.umich.edu\/chem" }, { "group_name":"Materials Science and Engineering", "group_id":"3942", "website":"" }, { "group_name":"Electrical Engineering and Computer Science", "group_id":"3989", "website":"" }, { "group_name":"Quantum Research Institute", "group_id":"5034", "website":"" } ], "image_url":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/attachments\/2025\/10\/event_135179_original-1.jpg", "image_description":"Seminar Flyer", "styled_images":{ "event_thumb":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_thumb\/media\/attachments\/2025\/10\/event_135179_original-1.jpg", "event_large":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_large\/media\/attachments\/2025\/10\/event_135179_original-1.jpg", "event_large_2x":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_large_2x\/media\/attachments\/2025\/10\/event_135179_original-1.jpg", "event_large_lightbox":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_large_lightbox\/media\/attachments\/2025\/10\/event_135179_original-1.jpg", "group_thumb":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/group_thumb\/media\/attachments\/2025\/10\/event_135179_original-1.jpg", "group_thumb_square":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/group_thumb_square\/media\/attachments\/2025\/10\/event_135179_original-1.jpg", "group_large":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/group_large\/media\/attachments\/2025\/10\/event_135179_original-1.jpg", "group_large_lightbox":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/group_large_lightbox\/media\/attachments\/2025\/10\/event_135179_original-1.jpg", "event_large_crop":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_large_crop\/media\/attachments\/2025\/10\/event_135179_original-1.jpg", "event_list":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_list\/media\/attachments\/2025\/10\/event_135179_original-1.jpg", "event_list_2x":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_list_2x\/media\/attachments\/2025\/10\/event_135179_original-1.jpg", "event_grid":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_grid\/media\/attachments\/2025\/10\/event_135179_original-1.jpg", "event_grid_2x":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_grid_2x\/media\/attachments\/2025\/10\/event_135179_original-1.jpg", "event_feature_large":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_feature_large\/media\/attachments\/2025\/10\/event_135179_original-1.jpg", "event_feature_thumb":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_feature_thumb\/media\/attachments\/2025\/10\/event_135179_original-1.jpg" }, "qr_code_url":"http:\/\/events.umich.edu\/event\/135179\/qrcode.png", "occurrence_count":1, "first_occurrence":21876459 } , { "id":"138402-21882906", "datetime_modified":"20251007T142312", "datetime_start":"20251106T160000", "datetime_end":"20251106T171500", "has_end_time":1, "date_start":"2025-11-06", "date_end":"2025-11-06", "time_start":"16:00:00", "time_end":"17:15:00", "time_zone":"America\/Detroit", "event_title":"Bridging Simulations and Experiment to Unravel Electrochemically Driven Membrane Transport", "occurrence_title":"", "combined_title":"Bridging Simulations and Experiment to Unravel Electrochemically Driven Membrane Transport: Jessica Swanson (University of Utah)", "event_subtitle":"Jessica Swanson (University of Utah)", "event_type":"Workshop \/ Seminar", "event_type_id":"21", "description":"Ion channels, transporters, and redox-active membrane enzymes operate in dynamic environments shaped by fluctuating electrochemical gradients, which drive the movement of charged substrates across biological membranes. Despite great progress, uncovering the molecular mechanisms of transport\u2014especially under nonequilibrium conditions\u2014remains an outstanding challenge.\r\n\r\nIn this seminar, I will introduce Multiscale Responsive Kinetic Modeling (MsRKM), a framework that integrates simulations and experiment to extract transport mechanisms consistent with molecular-level insights and macroscopic observations. By incorporating electrochemically responsive rate constants, MsRKM allows direct comparison with current-voltage (I\u2013V) profiles and predicts how mechanisms shift under varying conditions.\r\n\r\nOur findings show that chemical and electrical gradients\u2014even when equal in Nernstian magnitude\u2014drive fundamentally different transport behaviors.

MsRKM also disentangles the physical origins of voltage- and concentration-dependent current profiles (I\u2013V vs. I\u2013\u03bc) and explains directional flux (rectification) by linking ion binding site locations to voltage sensitivity. \r\n\r\nIn an era of rapid advances in computational and experimental techniques, this work highlights the power of integrating simulation, experiment, and mechanistic modeling to uncover molecular mechanisms\u2014providing new insight into how life operates under nonequilibrium conditions.", "occurrence_notes":null, "guid":"138402-21882906@events.umich.edu", "permalink":"http:\/\/events.umich.edu\/event\/138402", "building_id":"1000158", "building_name":"Chemistry Dow Lab", "building_official_id":1000158, "campus_maps_id":"34", "campus_maps_link_path":"willard-h-dow-chemistry-laboratory", "campus_maps_link":"https:\/\/maps.studentlife.umich.edu\/building\/willard-h-dow-chemistry-laboratory", "room":"1640", "location_name":"Chemistry Dow Lab", "has_livestream":0, "cost":"", "tags":["Chemistry"], "website":"https:\/\/www.bioscience.utah.edu\/faculty\/swanson\/index.php", "links":[ { "type":"other", "url":"https:\/\/www.bioscience.utah.edu\/faculty\/swanson\/index.php", "title":"Jessica Swanson Website" } ], "sponsors":[ { "group_name":"Department of Chemistry", "group_id":"3761", "website":"https:\/\/lsa.umich.edu\/chem" }, { "group_name":"Physical Chemistry", "group_id":"4390", "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\/138402\/qrcode.png", "occurrence_count":1, "first_occurrence":21882906 } , { "id":"141595-21889068", "datetime_modified":"20251106T140954", "datetime_start":"20251110T110000", "datetime_end":"20251110T120000", "has_end_time":1, "date_start":"2025-11-10", "date_end":"2025-11-10", "time_start":"11:00:00", "time_end":"12:00:00", "time_zone":"America\/Detroit", "event_title":"Human Genetics Research Seminar Series", "occurrence_title":"", "combined_title":"Human Genetics Research Seminar Series: Ronald Wek, PhD from Indiana University", "event_subtitle":"Ronald Wek, PhD from Indiana University", "event_type":"Lecture \/ Discussion", "event_type_id":"13", "description":"Please join us on Monday, November 10th at 11am in ABC Seminar Rooms, BSRB.

The rational design of next-generation electrocatalysts - guided by sound scientific hypothesis - is essential for advancing practical technologies. In recent years, my team at Argonne has actively explored high-performance electrocatalysts using innovative design and synthesis strategies. In this presentation, I will first discuss our recent advances in utilizing metal\u2013organic frameworks (MOFs) as tunable precursors for oxygen redox electrocatalysis. This includes the development of platinum-group-metal-free (PGM-free) and ultralow-platinum catalysts for proton exchange membrane fuel cells [1], as well as PGM-free catalysts as viable replacements for iridium for water electrolysis [2]. I will then introduce our recent studies on the selective electrochemical reduction of CO\u2082 to multi-carbon (C\u2082\u207a) products, where the reaction pathways and product distributions are profoundly modulated by active-site geometry, atomic coordination, and nanoconfinement effects [3\u20135].\r\nThe presentation outlines our integrated approach that combines advanced structural and spectroscopic characterization, computational modeling, and machine-learning-guided discovery to uncover catalytic mechanisms and guide materials optimization.

Moreover, photoabsorption experiments measure all excitons whereas the best photovoltaic devices are perhaps 20% efficient, meaning that only 1 in 5 excitons actually produce electricity. Thus, the conclusions drawn from free standing films might not be directly relevant to devices.

To date, research in electrocatalysis \u2013 the key tool which allows us to link electricity to chemical reactions \u2013 remains strongly focused on the transformation of small inorganic molecules such as CO2, H2O, N2, and oxygenated biomass derivatives. Yet, comprehensive industrial electrification will likely require electrocatalytic methods that can promote the reactions that make up the core of the chemicals and fuels industry: n-alkane transformations.\r\nIn this talk, I will demonstrate that electricity-driven alkane transformations not only are feasible but that they also unlock new avenues of reactivity, offering solutions to long-standing challenges in catalytic alkane chemistry. Specifically, I will show how our group combined a fundamental understanding of interfacial electrocatalytic processes1 with in-situ electrochemical mass spectrometry to gain independent, real-time control over the elementary steps of alkane transformations at room temperature. By modulating the potential applied to an electrocatalyst surface, we were able to independently control the adsorption of n-alkanes, initiate the transformation of adsorbates while they are bound to the surface, and selectively desorb desired products while keeping others anchored. These methods provide a powerful lever of control over catalytic surface chemistry, enabling us to demonstrate remarkable reactivity, including: (1) the room-temperature electrochemical fragmentation of ethane2 and butane3 into shorter chain fragments, and (2) the room-temperature dehydrogenation of n alkanes to alkenes.4 Beyond these transformations, I will show how leveraging independent control over elementary steps allowed us to deconstruct the continuous oxidation of n-alkanes in fuel cells into its fundamental steps\u2014identifying bottlenecks and providing new design principles for improved catalysts.5\r\nIn the final part of my talk, I will discuss how, at a fundamental level, applied voltages control the rate of electrocatalytic reactions. Electron transfer reactions are typically thought to pass through a vibrationally activated transition state, making them temperature dependent. However, we discovered that some electrocatalytic reaction classes, for example CO\u2082 reduction, show little to no temperature dependence, regardless of the catalyst or electrolyte. Building on previous reports by Halpern and Conway, I will discuss how our mechanistic interpretation of this phenomenon points to the translational, rather than vibrational, reorganization of electrolyte components to form an interfacial electron transfer transition state.6 I will also discuss how this insight highlights the importance of considering more than enthalpic activation barriers in designing electrocatalytic systems.\r\nBy extending electrocatalysis to alkane transformations and uncovering new mechanistic insights into reaction rate control, we aim to enable more precise atomic-level manipulation in electrocatalytic processes, paving the way for a more selective, efficient, and electrified chemical industry of the future.", "occurrence_notes":null, "guid":"138408-21882913@events.umich.edu", "permalink":"http:\/\/events.umich.edu\/event\/138408", "building_id":"1000158", "building_name":"Chemistry Dow Lab", "building_official_id":1000158, "campus_maps_id":"34", "campus_maps_link_path":"willard-h-dow-chemistry-laboratory", "campus_maps_link":"https:\/\/maps.studentlife.umich.edu\/building\/willard-h-dow-chemistry-laboratory", "room":"1640", "location_name":"Chemistry Dow Lab", "has_livestream":0, "cost":"", "tags":["Chemistry"], "website":"https:\/\/engineering.wisc.edu\/directory\/profile\/marcel-schreier\/", "links":[ { "type":"other", "url":"https:\/\/engineering.wisc.edu\/directory\/profile\/marcel-schreier\/", "title":"Marcel Shrier Website" } ], "sponsors":[ { "group_name":"Department of Chemistry", "group_id":"3761", "website":"https:\/\/lsa.umich.edu\/chem" }, { "group_name":"Analytical Chemistry", "group_id":"4384", "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\/138408\/qrcode.png", "occurrence_count":1, "first_occurrence":21882913 } , { "id":"141708-21889218", "datetime_modified":"20251110T151127", "datetime_start":"20251121T090000", "datetime_end":"20251121T100000", "has_end_time":1, "date_start":"2025-11-21", "date_end":"2025-11-21", "time_start":"09:00:00", "time_end":"10:00:00", "time_zone":"America\/Detroit", "event_title":"Emily Nolan -

Room PML2000\r\nZoom: https:\/\/umich.zoom.us\/j\/92778807694?jst=2\r\n\r\nAbstract:\r\nQuantum thermal-state and ground-state preparation are one of the fundamental algorithmic primitives with broad applications in quantum many-body physics, quantum chemistry, and materials science. In this talk, I will introduce dissipative quantum algorithms for preparing the thermal or ground state of a given physical or chemical Hamiltonian. I will begin with an overview of a popular approach that has gained significant traction in recent years, based on Lindblad dynamics. I will then present a more recent but implementation friendly framework for thermal and ground-state preparation rooted in system\u2013bath interaction models. I will discuss a recently developed algorithm that comes with rigorous complexity guarantees, along with new results that extend our theoretical understanding of system\u2013bath interaction beyond what was previously known.\r\n\r\nBio:\r\nZhiyan is an Assistant Professor in the Department of Mathematics at the University of Michigan, Ann Arbor. Before joining Michigan, Zhiyan was a Morrey Visiting Assistant Professor in the Department of Mathematics at the University of California, Berkeley, hosted by Prof. Lin Lin. Zhiyan received his Ph.D. degree in Mathematics from the University of Wisconsin\u2013Madison under the direction of Qin Li.\r\n\r\nZhiyan works in applied and computational mathematics, with a particular focus on numerical analysis in areas such as quantum computing, machine learning, and data science. A central theme of his research is developing a deep mathematical understanding of existing algorithms and designing new, principled ones. His interests span a broad range of topics in quantum computing and machine learning, such as quantum eigenvalue estimation, signal processing, quantum and classical optimization and sampling, and mean-field analysis.", "occurrence_notes":"https:\/\/umich.zoom.us\/j\/92778807694?jst=2", "guid":"142102-21890008@events.umich.edu", "permalink":"http:\/\/events.umich.edu\/event\/142102",

"description":"The Enterovirus genus comprises RNA viruses associated with various illnesses, including the common cold, poliomyelitis, acute flaccid paralysis, and myocarditis. These viruses have conserved cloverleaf-shaped RNA secondary structures at the extreme 5\u2032 end of their genomes, which are crucial for assembling viral and host proteins, such as 3CD and PCBP2, into functional ribonucleoprotein (RNP) complexes required for genome replication. However, the high-resolution structures and mechanisms of these cloverleaf RNAs have largely remained unknown. Recently, we determined the crystal structures of five cloverleaf RNAs from different enteroviral species, revealing a highly conserved H-type four-way junction fold that positions the 3CD and PCBP2 binding sites far apart. The conserved features observed in these structures, including a long-range A\u2022C\u2022U base triple, enabled us to predict structural models for other enteroviruses via homology modeling, yielding models similar to the experimental structures. Our structure-guided binding analyses, using recombinantly purified full-length human PCBP2 and viral 3C proteins, along with the crystal structures of the cloverleaf-3C complexes, offered further insights into how these viruses assemble RNP complexes for their genome replication within host cells. Moreover, we demonstrated that antisense oligonucleotides could block high-affinity PCBP2-binding sites, highlighting the potential to develop therapeutics targeting this replication platform for enteroviral infections. The notable structural conservation among enteroviral cloverleafs observed in our studies underscores opportunities to develop universal therapeutics that target this viral RNP platform across multiple enterovirus infections.", "occurrence_notes":null, "guid":"138424-21882929@events.umich.edu", "permalink":"http:\/\/events.umich.edu\/event\/138424", "building_id":"1000158", "building_name":"Chemistry Dow Lab", "building_official_id":1000158, "campus_maps_id":"34", "campus_maps_link_path":"willard-h-dow-chemistry-laboratory", "campus_maps_link":"https:\/\/maps.studentlife.umich.edu\/building\/willard-h-dow-chemistry-laboratory", "room":"1640", "location_name":"Chemistry Dow Lab", "has_livestream":0, "cost":"", "tags":["Chemistry"], "website":"https:\/\/chemistry.umbc.edu\/faculty\/deepak-koirala\/", "links":[ { "type":"other", "url":"https:\/\/chemistry.umbc.edu\/faculty\/deepak-koirala\/", "title":"Deepak Koirala Website" } ], "sponsors":[ { "group_name":"Department of Chemistry", "group_id":"3761", "website":"https:\/\/lsa.umich.edu\/chem" }, { "group_name":"Chemical Biology", "group_id":"4385", "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\/138424\/qrcode.png", "occurrence_count":1, "first_occurrence":21882929 } , { "id":"143419-21893112", "datetime_modified":"20260107T141348", "datetime_start":"20260114T133000", "datetime_end":"20260114T150000", "has_end_time":1, "date_start":"2026-01-14", "date_end":"2026-01-14", "time_start":"13:30:00", "time_end":"15:00:00", "time_zone":"America\/Detroit", "event_title":"Peptide Encoded Chiral Inorganic Nanomaterials Talk", "occurrence_title":"", "combined_title":"Peptide Encoded Chiral Inorganic Nanomaterials Talk: Professor Ki Tae Nam, Seoul National University", "event_subtitle":"Professor Ki Tae Nam, Seoul National University", "event_type":"Workshop \/ Seminar", "event_type_id":"21", "description":"From small molecules to entire organisms, evolution has refined biological structures at the nanoscale, microscale and macroscale to be chiral\u2014that is, mirror dissymmetric. Chiral nanoscale materials can be designed that mimic, refine and advance biological chiral geometries, to engineer optical, physical and chemical properties for applications in photonics, sensing, catalysis and biomedicine. The idea that inorganic materials can be chiral seems to be counterintuitive. In this talk, I will discuss about a new mechanism that can generate chiral nanomaterials based on the interaction between chiral peptides and high index plane of metal surface. The enantioselective interaction of chiral molecules and high-Miller-index facets can break the mirror symmetry of the metal nanocrystals. I will also discuss about interesting optical properties of these chiral gold plasmonic nanoparticles that was synthesized by the peptides and amino acid. The resulting 432 symmetric chiral morphology result in the highest dissymmetry factor (g) and the efficient coupling with other materials. I believe that this synthetic approach for the chirality control of inorganic nanomaterials can have a lot of potential to maximize the light-matter interaction, resulting in many optical, electronic and biological applications. \r\nReference)\r\n\u201cEnantioselective Sensing by Collective Circular Dichroism,\u201d Nature. 2022, 612, 470. \r\n\u201cAmino-Acid- and Peptide-Directed Synthesis of Chiral Plasmonic Gold Nanoparticles,\u201d Nature. 2018, 556, 360. \r\n\r\nProfessor Ki Tae Nam received his B.S. and M.S. in Materials Science and Engineering from Seoul National University, and his Ph.D. in Materials Science and Engineering from MIT.

However, noisy hardware, the costs of computing gradients, and the number of\r\nqubits and gates required to simulate large systems present major challenges to realizing the\r\npotential of dynamical simulations using quantum hardware. In this talk, I will discuss our recent\r\nefforts to model ATP hydrolysis, a paradigmatic and clinically-important biochemical reaction,\r\nusing quantum hardware. Key to our modeling is employing transfer learning to learn\r\napproximate force fields based on abundant data and then correcting those force fields using\r\ndata from quantum hardware. Using this technique and new embedding and downfolding\r\nmethods, I will show how we can gain novel mechanistic insights into a variety of hydrolysis-\r\nrelated reactions and how these techniques can be adapted to other problems in biochemistry.\r\nThroughout this talk, I will underscore the opportunities and challenges associated with using\r\nquantum hardware and how these can be addressed via the fruitful marriage of quantum\r\ncomputation and machine learning.\r\n\r\nBio:\r\nDr. Brenda Rubenstein is currently the Krieble Professor of Chemistry at Brown University.

We gained new insights into their unique physiology and engineered them for new traits including accelerated growth, enhanced bioleaching, salt tolerance, and critical material reclamation. In addition to cells, we are also invested in using biomolecular engineering to improve critical metal binding and separation. We have recently developed new proteins for rare earth element and other critical material bioseparations under acidic conditions. Throughout the talk I will highlight the substantial challenges and opportunities that come with the development of biotechnology solutions in this space.", "occurrence_notes":null, "guid":"143373-21892962@events.umich.edu", "permalink":"http:\/\/events.umich.edu\/event\/143373", "building_id":"", "building_name":"North Campus Research Complex Building 10", "building_official_id":null, "campus_maps_id":"615", "campus_maps_link_path":"north-campus-research-complex-building-10", "campus_maps_link":"https:\/\/maps.studentlife.umich.edu\/building\/north-campus-research-complex-building-10", "room":"B10 Auditorium", "location_name":"North Campus Research Complex Building 10", "has_livestream":0, "cost":"", "tags":["Chemistry"], "website":"http:\/\/che.engin.umich.edu\/", "links":[ { "type":"other", "url":"http:\/\/che.engin.umich.edu\/", "title":null } ], "sponsors":[ { "group_name":"Chemical Engineering", "group_id":"3218", "website":"http:\/\/che.engin.umich.edu\/" } ], "image_url":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/attachments\/2026\/01\/event_143373_original-1.png", "image_description":"Alt text: Text that reads \"Chemical Engineering Seminar\"", "styled_images":{ "event_thumb":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/resolve\/event_thumb\/media\/attachments\/2026\/01\/event_143373_original-1.png", "event_large":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_large\/media\/attachments\/2026\/01\/event_143373_original-1.png", "event_large_2x":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/resolve\/event_large_2x\/media\/attachments\/2026\/01\/event_143373_original-1.png", "event_large_lightbox":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_large_lightbox\/media\/attachments\/2026\/01\/event_143373_original-1.png", "group_thumb":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/resolve\/group_thumb\/media\/attachments\/2026\/01\/event_143373_original-1.png", "group_thumb_square":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/resolve\/group_thumb_square\/media\/attachments\/2026\/01\/event_143373_original-1.png", "group_large":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/resolve\/group_large\/media\/attachments\/2026\/01\/event_143373_original-1.png", "group_large_lightbox":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/resolve\/group_large_lightbox\/media\/attachments\/2026\/01\/event_143373_original-1.png", "event_large_crop":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/resolve\/event_large_crop\/media\/attachments\/2026\/01\/event_143373_original-1.png", "event_list":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/resolve\/event_list\/media\/attachments\/2026\/01\/event_143373_original-1.png", "event_list_2x":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_list_2x\/media\/attachments\/2026\/01\/event_143373_original-1.png", "event_grid":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_grid\/media\/attachments\/2026\/01\/event_143373_original-1.png", "event_grid_2x":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/resolve\/event_grid_2x\/media\/attachments\/2026\/01\/event_143373_original-1.png", "event_feature_large":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/resolve\/event_feature_large\/media\/attachments\/2026\/01\/event_143373_original-1.png", "event_feature_thumb":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_feature_thumb\/media\/attachments\/2026\/01\/event_143373_original-1.png" }, "qr_code_url":"http:\/\/events.umich.edu\/event\/143373\/qrcode.png", "occurrence_count":1, "first_occurrence":21892962 } , { "id":"117733-21891124", "datetime_modified":"20251210T113622", "datetime_start":"20260118T230000", "datetime_end":"20260118T235900", "has_end_time":1, "date_start":"2026-01-18", "date_end":"2026-01-18", "time_start":"23:00:00", "time_end":"23:59:00", "time_zone":"America\/Detroit", "event_title":"APPLICATION DEADLINE EXTENDED TO JANUARY 18TH: Up to $30,000 Grant For Student Sustainability Projects", "occurrence_title":"", "combined_title":"APPLICATION DEADLINE EXTENDED TO JANUARY 18TH: Up to $30,000 Grant For Student Sustainability Projects: Planet Blue Student Innovation Fund and The Social and Environmental Sustainability grant.", "event_subtitle":"Planet Blue Student Innovation Fund and The Social and Environmental Sustainability grant.", "event_type":"Meeting", "event_type_id":"14", "description":"The Student Sustainability Coalition is awarding up to $30,000 for student driven projects that enhance sustainability or in some instances social sustainability for the University of Michigan's campus community.

Harnessing quantum technologies as they scale up will require next-generation software and integration with HPC and AI. Software frameworks to couple HPC and AI to quantum computers, as well as connecting end users to such a hybrid computing environment will be essential to ensure the technology can be harnessed optimally to deliver on industry and scientific discovery needs. I will show research progress and discuss the opportunities for scientific advantage for quantum technologies and potential pathways to integrate HPC, AI and networking.\r\n\r\nShort bio:\r\nBert de Jong is the Director of the Quantum Systems Accelerator, which is part of the National Quantum Initiative.

Mechanistic insights obtained through isotopic labeling, spectroscopic characterization, and computational analysis identify a key hydroxylamine intermediate, illustrating how structural modifications to the iron center dictate divergent reaction pathways. Furthermore, the complex demonstrates a distinct selectivity profile in the oxygen reduction reaction (ORR), favoring a two-electron\/two-proton pathway to produce hydrogen peroxide, an uncommon result for nonheme iron catalysts that underscores the influence of the local chemical environment on redox transformations.

Amazingly, when helium atoms are dissolved in sea spray proxies, they evaporate at super-Maxwellian speeds that vary sensitively with the identity of the salts and surfactants in solution. The excess helium kinetic energies teach us about the interfacial morphologies of surfactant-salt-water solutions, which we can explain using two beautiful chemical concepts: the principle of detailed balance and potentials of mean force. We can use what we have learned to discuss how charged surfactants can significantly alter the outcome of reactions in sea spray because they control the segregation of reactive ions to the surface.

However, it is unable to address two great mysteries in physics, the nature of dark matter and why matter dominates over antimatter throughout the Universe. Novel theories beyond the Standard Model may explain these phenomena. These models predict very massive particles whose interactions violate time-reversal (T) symmetry and would give rise to an electric dipole moment (EDM) along the spin of electron and nucleon. Thus, searching for EDM provides a powerful probe to these new physics and sheds light on the mystery of the matter-antimatter asymmetry of the Universe. \nThis talk outlines the roadmap to establish a new generation EDM measurement at Michigan State that can outperform the current generation of precision measurements testing hadronic T-violations. We report our ongoing effort at Facility for Rare Isotope Beams (FRIB) to perform quantum control and sensing of 227ThO molecules and other radioactive molecules. These pave the way for quantum-enhanced test of fundamental symmetry, projecting to constrain T-violating new physics in 10~100 TeV energy range, exceeding what the Large Hadron Collider and its future upgrade could probe.\n\nBio:\nBorn in Hefei, China, I embarked on an international academic journey that took me from Singapore where I spent my undergraduate to Munich, Germany, where I earned both my MS and PhD. While my academic focus stays in physics, my true passion lies in the exploration of diverse fields, driven by curiosity. During my doctoral studies at the Technical University of Munich and the Max Planck Institute of Quantum Optics, I pioneered a nonconventional technique leveraging centrifugal force to decelerate molecular beams to a complete standstill.\n\nMy academic journey led me to Harvard University, where I delved into precision molecular spectroscopy, contributing to the investigation of fundamental symmetries in nature. Notably, I achieved a groundbreaking milestone by measuring the most precise bound on the electron electric dipole moment, utilizing cold Thorium Monoxide molecules as a quantum sensor.\n\nCurrently based at FRIB and MSU, I am at the forefront of building a groundbreaking precision spectroscopy experiment. This initiative aims to synergize the rare isotope resources at FRIB with cutting-edge quantum technology in atomic and laser physics. The goal is to push the boundaries of fundamental symmetry testing, marking a significant contribution to the field and further advancing our understanding of the physical universe.", "occurrence_notes":"https:\/\/umich.zoom.us\/j\/99497477868?jst=2", "guid":"142384-21890779@events.umich.edu", "permalink":"http:\/\/events.umich.edu\/event\/142384", "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":1, "livestream_type":"zoom", "livetream_require_login":0, "livestream_id":"994974778682", "livestream_link":"https:\/\/umich.zoom.us\/j\/994974778682", "cost":"", "tags":["Chemistry"], "website":"", "links":[ ], "sponsors":[ { "group_name":"Quantum Research Institute", "group_id":"5043", "website":"" }, { "group_name":"Department of Astronomy", "group_id":"1178", "website":"" }, { "group_name":"Department of Physics", "group_id":"1965", "website":"" }, { "group_name":"Electrical and Computer Engineering", "group_id":"3153", "website":"http:\/\/www.ece.engin.umich.edu" }, { "group_name":"Computer Science and Engineering Division", "group_id":"3197", "website":"http:\/\/cse.umich.edu" }, { "group_name":"Applied Physics", "group_id":"3606", "website":"" }, { "group_name":"Department of Chemistry", "group_id":"3761", "website":"https:\/\/lsa.umich.edu\/chem" }, { "group_name":"Materials Science and Engineering", "group_id":"3942", "website":"" }, { "group_name":"Quantum Research Institute", "group_id":"5034", "website":"" } ], "image_url":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/attachments\/2026\/01\/event_142384_original-1.jpg", "image_description":"Seminar Flyer", "styled_images":{ "event_thumb":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_thumb\/media\/attachments\/2026\/01\/event_142384_original-1.jpg", "event_large":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_large\/media\/attachments\/2026\/01\/event_142384_original-1.jpg", "event_large_2x":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_large_2x\/media\/attachments\/2026\/01\/event_142384_original-1.jpg", "event_large_lightbox":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_large_lightbox\/media\/attachments\/2026\/01\/event_142384_original-1.jpg", "group_thumb":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/group_thumb\/media\/attachments\/2026\/01\/event_142384_original-1.jpg", "group_thumb_square":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/group_thumb_square\/media\/attachments\/2026\/01\/event_142384_original-1.jpg", "group_large":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/group_large\/media\/attachments\/2026\/01\/event_142384_original-1.jpg", "group_large_lightbox":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/group_large_lightbox\/media\/attachments\/2026\/01\/event_142384_original-1.jpg", "event_large_crop":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_large_crop\/media\/attachments\/2026\/01\/event_142384_original-1.jpg", "event_list":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_list\/media\/attachments\/2026\/01\/event_142384_original-1.jpg", "event_list_2x":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_list_2x\/media\/attachments\/2026\/01\/event_142384_original-1.jpg", "event_grid":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_grid\/media\/attachments\/2026\/01\/event_142384_original-1.jpg", "event_grid_2x":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_grid_2x\/media\/attachments\/2026\/01\/event_142384_original-1.jpg", "event_feature_large":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_feature_large\/media\/attachments\/2026\/01\/event_142384_original-1.jpg", "event_feature_thumb":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_feature_thumb\/media\/attachments\/2026\/01\/event_142384_original-1.jpg" }, "qr_code_url":"http:\/\/events.umich.edu\/event\/142384\/qrcode.png", "occurrence_count":1, "first_occurrence":21890779 } , { "id":"138403-21882907", "datetime_modified":"20260105T102826", "datetime_start":"20260212T160000", "datetime_end":"20260212T171500", "has_end_time":1, "date_start":"2026-02-12", "date_end":"2026-02-12", "time_start":"16:00:00", "time_end":"17:15:00", "time_zone":"America\/Detroit", "event_title":"Visualizing photoinduced electron transfer in molecular photocatalysts using ultrafast x-ray spectroscopy", "occurrence_title":"", "combined_title":"Visualizing photoinduced electron transfer in molecular photocatalysts using ultrafast x-ray spectroscopy: Amy Cordones-Hahn (SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory)", "event_subtitle":"Amy Cordones-Hahn (SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory)", "event_type":"Workshop \/ Seminar", "event_type_id":"21", "description":"Photocatalytic dyads that combine chromophore and catalytic centers are commonly employed motifs for homogeneous light-induced multi-electron transfer catalysis.

Purposefully designed chelators bridge these domains by enhancing the biological performance of metal ions and by enabling the enrichment, isolation, and separation of technologically critical metals. This presentation highlights our group\u2019s recent efforts in chelator design for these two areas. In the first part, we survey how expanded macrocyclic chelators can be engineered for nuclear medicine. Our studies show that introducing controlled flexibility into these ligands allows them to adjust their binding conformations to accommodate metal ions of varying sizes, increasing their versatility for radiometal-based applications. The second part focuses on applying this chelator class to the extraction and separation of rare earth elements, critical minerals central to modern technologies. We demonstrate how rationally tailored chelators can selectively remove and enrich rare earths from complex matrices and enable efficient interelement separations. Together, these studies illustrate how fundamental principles of coordination chemistry can be leveraged to meet distinct challenges in nuclear medicine and critical mineral processing.", "occurrence_notes":null, "guid":"142066-21889963@events.umich.edu", "permalink":"http:\/\/events.umich.edu\/event\/142066", "building_id":"1000158", "building_name":"Chemistry Dow Lab", "building_official_id":1000158, "campus_maps_id":"34", "campus_maps_link_path":"willard-h-dow-chemistry-laboratory", "campus_maps_link":"https:\/\/maps.studentlife.umich.edu\/building\/willard-h-dow-chemistry-laboratory", "room":"1640", "location_name":"Chemistry Dow Lab", "has_livestream":0, "cost":"", "tags":["Chemistry"], "website":"", "links":[ ], "sponsors":[ { "group_name":"Department of Chemistry", "group_id":"3761", "website":"https:\/\/lsa.umich.edu\/chem" } ], "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\/142066\/qrcode.png", "occurrence_count":1, "first_occurrence":21889963 } , { "id":"145168-21896754", "datetime_modified":"20260210T094456", "datetime_start":"20260217T220000", "datetime_end":"20260217T230000", "has_end_time":1, "date_start":"2026-02-17", "date_end":"2026-02-17", "time_start":"22:00:00", "time_end":"23:00:00", "time_zone":"America\/Detroit", "event_title":"Thriving in STEM | \"Art of the Heart\" Book Discussion", "occurrence_title":"Thriving in STEM | \"Art of the Heart\" Book Request Deadline", "combined_title":"Thriving in STEM | \"Art of the Heart\" Book Discussion: Dr. Jay H.

In this talk, I will describe two approaches we are pursuing to generate fast and high-fidelity remote entanglement. In the first approach, we have demonstrated a photonic interconnect based on high-fidelity entanglement of the metastable nuclear spin-1\/2 qubit in ytterbium-171 and a telecom-band photon with time-bin encoding. We have realized an atom-photon Bell state fidelity of 0.95 when correcting for atomic measurement errors. As an extension of this work, I will describe a second system based on ytterbium-171 atom arrays in a near-concentric optical cavity. We anticipate the ability to generate atom-atom Bell pairs with fidelity approaching 0.99 and rate of 10^4 ebits\/sec using this telecom photonic interface. In the second approach, I will introduce a novel technique for transporting large tweezer arrays over 200 mm within a single vacuum chamber via a microscope objective mounted on an air-bearing linear motion stage. I will describe our vision for modular quantum computation based on an array of atom arrays.\r\n\r\nBio: Prof. Covey\u2019s research utilizes arrays of individually controlled neutral alkaline-earth atoms in optical tweezers to engineer many-body entangled states.

Active colloids in nematic liquid crystals (NLCs) are exciting vehicles for such bio-inspired materials manipulation. Isotropic spherical colloids with rotational motion controlled by external magnetic fields swim effectively. The complex rheology of NLCs propels the colloids, generating translation from rotation. Hybrid colloids generate companion topological defects that form far-from-equilibrium topological flagella that power colloidal swimming. Non-equilibrium disclination lines serve as topological filaments that interact with nematic swimmers, providing reconfigurable sites for assembly in the domain. Swimming spheres trapped on these filaments act like molecular motors to reconfigure these structures. We are developing fundamental understanding of these transient, far-from-equilibrium interactions to exploit them as a new class of functional structures that generate new modalities of motion and interaction. Progress in understanding nematic colloid swimming, topological flagellar propulsion, swimmer-filament interactions, and in harnessing these effects to entrain, transport, release and deliver diverse colloidal building blocks is described.\r\n\r\nSPEAKER BIO:\r\nKathleen J.

I will present results showing enhanced durability and performance of both encapsulated islet grafts and insulin-delivery catheters.

We are exploring combinatorially rich reaction space, where synthetic routes, reaction conditions, and bioactivity are deeply interconnected. Our interests span from pharmaceutical innovation to contemporary ecosystem health crises affecting endangered species and disease resistance.\r\n\r\nThis approach, which we call conservation chemistry, integrates molecular sciences with ecological and public health perspectives.

The lab\u2019s interests revolve around diverse pathways of heterochromatin-mediated gene silencing in yeast and mammalian cells. Work in budding yeast focuses on the structure and function of a diverged and relatively simple form of heterochromatin, which requires only three Silent information regulator (\u201cSir\u201d) proteins that form a histone deacetylase and chromatin-binding complex. Work in fission yeast focuses on a conserved example of heterochromatin that requires the nuclear RNA interference (RNAi) machinery, other RNA processing pathways, Heterochromatin protein 1 (HP1) homologs, and histone-modifying enzymes. In mammalian cells, the work is focused on HP1-mediated and other heterochromatin formation pathways. The lab uses approaches ranging from genetics and genomics, biochemical purification and reconstitution, and structural biology for their studies. Ultimately, the lab seeks to understand the conserved fundamental principles that govern the assembly, function, and epigenetic propagation of heterochromatin.", "occurrence_notes":null, "guid":"143367-21892955@events.umich.edu", "permalink":"http:\/\/events.umich.edu\/event\/143367", "building_id":"1005037", "building_name":"Taubman Biomedical Science Research Building", "building_official_id":1005037, "campus_maps_id":"509", "campus_maps_link_path":"alfred-a-taubman-biomedical-science-research-bldg", "campus_maps_link":"https:\/\/maps.studentlife.umich.edu\/building\/alfred-a-taubman-biomedical-science-research-bldg", "room":"1020 Kahn Auditorium, BSRB", "location_name":"Taubman Biomedical Science Research Building", "has_livestream":0, "cost":"", "tags":["Chemistry"], "website":"https:\/\/medschool.umich.edu\/events?f%5B0%5D=series%3A13266", "links":[ { "type":"other", "url":"https:\/\/medschool.umich.edu\/events?f%5B0%5D=series%3A13266", "title":"Human Genetics Research Seminar Series" } ], "sponsors":[ { "group_name":"Department of Human Genetics", "group_id":"1137", "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\/143367\/qrcode.png", "occurrence_count":1, "first_occurrence":21892955 } , { "id":"138388-21882887", "datetime_modified":"20260302T150514", "datetime_start":"20260309T160000", "datetime_end":"20260309T171500", "has_end_time":1, "date_start":"2026-03-09", "date_end":"2026-03-09", "time_start":"16:00:00", "time_end":"17:15:00", "time_zone":"America\/Detroit", "event_title":"Gomberg Lecture with Xiaoyang Zhu \"Exciton Sensing of Correlated Electrons, Spins, and Dipoles\"", "occurrence_title":"", "combined_title":"Gomberg Lecture with Xiaoyang Zhu \"Exciton Sensing of Correlated Electrons, Spins, and Dipoles\": Xiaoyang Zhu (Columbia University)", "event_subtitle":"Xiaoyang Zhu (Columbia University)", "event_type":"Workshop \/ Seminar", "event_type_id":"21", "description":"Correlation plays a central role in emergent phenomena, such as quantum ground states and collective excitations.

In the 2D vdW magnetic semiconductor, CrSBr, excitonic transition is found to strongly couple to magnetic order and this allows the easy detection of low energy (GHz-THz) magnons by visible-NIR light. In the 2D vdW magnetic semiconductor, NbOI2, we report the experimental discovery of a quasi-particle, the ferron, which may form the basis for new modes of information processing and control.

Achieving this goal, however, requires the accurate realization of smaller-scale quantum gates and control operations. Understanding and characterizing modular gate and control errors is therefore essential for building reliable quantum applications. Earlier work has typically pursued either universal algorithms with theoretical guarantees or black-box engineering approaches with no guarantees. Yet, problem-specific structures offer opportunities for efficient and robust system characterization at the intersection of theory and practice. In this talk, I will present how structured signal transformation and processing can be used to exploit such structures. I will first introduce a gate characterization method that is both resource-efficient and robust against complex experimental errors, drawing parallels to parameter estimation in classical statistics. I will then generalize this idea to functional signals and present a novel non-parametric estimation paradigm.\n\nBio:\nYulong Dong is an Assistant Professor in ECE, with a courtesy appointment in Mathematics, at the University of Michigan.

understanding of nucleic acid functionality continues to expand rapidly and dramatically through seminal discoveries including RNA interference approaches and gene editing technologies. In nature, the basis for gene regulation is ultimately encoded by the exquisite specificity with which cells are able to control both the location and accessibility of nucleic acid constructs to govern their activation states. My research program seeks to understand and control gene activation using synthetic constructs through nature-inspired approaches to control and quantify cell binding interactions and stability in polymer and peptide nanocarriers. The basis of our approaches is the design of stimuli-responsive polymers and peptides whose interactions with nucleic acids and cells can be controlled dynamically by specific intracellular or external triggers. We exploit our ability to control nucleic acid binding\/release and cellular processing to gain new mechanistic insights over nucleic acid delivery, leading to design advances including histone-inspired DNA targeting, light-responsive gene silencing, and collagen turnover-stimulated gene expression.

Monolayer transition-metal dichalcogenides (TMDs) offer an appealing platform to harness such polarizations. TMDs host excitons in valley-shaped regions of their band structure, featuring well-defined carrier spins and obeying chiral optical selection rules. However, the technological potential of excitons in TMDs is impeded by rapid spin\u2013valley relaxation.\n\nI will present our theoretical\/computational efforts to address and enhance spin\u2013valley polarizations in TMDs through strong coupling to photons. Recognizing that chiral light is a manifestation of photonic spin, I will show such strong coupling to allow for efficient spin transduction through the formation of \"chiral polaritons\". I will furthermore show how a breaking of chiral symmetry in optical cavities allows valley\u2013spin relaxation to be suppressed in embedded TMDs.\n\nI will also discuss our efforts to unravel how spin\u2013valley relaxation in TMDs is driven by lattice phonons.

"description":"Over the past 4 decades, transition-metal-catalyzed cross-coupling and olefin functionalization reactions have transformed the discovery and manufacture of pharmaceuticals, agrochemicals, pigments, and materials. However, responsible sourcing of preferred precious metal catalysts (like Pd, Rh, or Ir) has become increasingly challenging with ongoing geopolitical conflict and inconsistent labor practices. This limited availability thus hinders the sustainability and economic viability of these processes. Despite the clear impetus to pursue reaction development with more terrestrially abundant elements, first-row (3d) transition metals are not typically suitable as direct substitutes for their precious metal congeners. Nonetheless, there is growing interest in exploring the unique reactivity of earth-abundant and relatively inexpensive 3d metals to generate novel products and\/or take advantage of substrate combinations that remain difficult to access with established methods. However, compared with the detailed understanding of the fundamental reactivity of precious metals informed by decades of mechanistic elucidation, the identity, speciation, and controlling features of 3d metal catalysts remain poorly defined in many cases, thus limiting their development. Here, I will describe my team\u2019s progress using well-defined nickel and copper precatalysts to tease apart the structural features and mechanistic steps necessary for achieving high activity and chemoselectivity in cross coupling and olefin functionalization reactions. Our work relies on a synergy between mechanistic study of and precatalyst design for homogeneous catalysis, taking advantage of cooperative design principles informed by heterogeneous and biological catalysis. These insights are translated into the design of novel catalyst structures and synthetic transformations with enhanced efficiency.", "occurrence_notes":null, "guid":"138412-21882917@events.umich.edu", "permalink":"http:\/\/events.umich.edu\/event\/138412", "building_id":"1000158", "building_name":"Chemistry Dow Lab", "building_official_id":1000158, "campus_maps_id":"34", "campus_maps_link_path":"willard-h-dow-chemistry-laboratory", "campus_maps_link":"https:\/\/maps.studentlife.umich.edu\/building\/willard-h-dow-chemistry-laboratory", "room":"1640", "location_name":"Chemistry Dow Lab", "has_livestream":0, "cost":"", "tags":["Chemistry"], "website":"https:\/\/www.sas.rochester.edu\/chm\/people\/faculty\/kennedy-c.rose\/index.html", "links":[ { "type":"other", "url":"https:\/\/www.sas.rochester.edu\/chm\/people\/faculty\/kennedy-c.rose\/index.html", "title":"Rose Kennedy Website" } ], "sponsors":[ { "group_name":"Department of Chemistry", "group_id":"3761", "website":"https:\/\/lsa.umich.edu\/chem" }, { "group_name":"Organic Chemistry", "group_id":"4389", "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\/138412\/qrcode.png", "occurrence_count":1, "first_occurrence":21882917 } , { "id":"139740-21894087", "datetime_modified":"20260114T093903", "datetime_start":"20260318T120000", "datetime_end":"20260318T130000", "has_end_time":1, "date_start":"2026-03-18", "date_end":"2026-03-18", "time_start":"12:00:00", "time_end":"13:00:00", "time_zone":"America\/Detroit", "event_title":"2025-2026 MICDE Ph.D. in Scientific Computing Student Seminars", "occurrence_title":"Ph.D. in Scientific Computing Seminar Series: TBD", "combined_title":"2025-2026 MICDE Ph.D. in Scientific Computing Student Seminars: See Sessions for details: Ph.D. in Scientific Computing Seminar Series: TBD", "event_subtitle":"See Sessions for details", "event_type":"Workshop \/ Seminar", "event_type_id":"21", "description":"The MICDE PhD Student Seminar Series showcases the research of students in the Ph.D. in Scientific Computing.

single-particle positioning. This talk explores strategies to achieve these goals by leveraging the extremes of nanocrystal size. First, we examine kinetically persistent cluster molecules, which are intermediates in colloidal nanocrystal nucleation, as high-fidelity models for understanding crystal growth mechanisms, structure, and reactivity. By understanding the structure, formation, and conversion of these clusters, we gain insights into synthesis pathways that minimize ensemble heterogeneity and move us toward the chemist's dream of perfect nanocrystals.\nNext, we address a critical challenge in quantum photonics: the scalable integration of colloidal quantum dots as single-photon emitters. We demonstrate two approaches that exploit QD size to enable deterministic placement into large-scale ordered arrays while preserving photostability and quantum emission properties. Specifically, SiO2 and CdS shells expand QD size, facilitating precise positioning via high-fidelity template-assisted self-assembly and electrohydrodynamic inkjet printing. We show that single \u201ccolossal\u201d QDs maintain room-temperature antibunching behavior and can be deterministically coupled to photonic cavities, advancing their viability for quantum technologies.", "occurrence_notes":null, "guid":"138415-21882920@events.umich.edu", "permalink":"http:\/\/events.umich.edu\/event\/138415", "building_id":"1000158", "building_name":"Chemistry Dow Lab", "building_official_id":1000158, "campus_maps_id":"34", "campus_maps_link_path":"willard-h-dow-chemistry-laboratory", "campus_maps_link":"https:\/\/maps.studentlife.umich.edu\/building\/willard-h-dow-chemistry-laboratory", "room":"1640", "location_name":"Chemistry Dow Lab", "has_livestream":0, "cost":"", "tags":["Chemistry"], "website":"https:\/\/chem.washington.edu\/people\/brandi-m-cossairt", "links":[ { "type":"other", "url":"https:\/\/chem.washington.edu\/people\/brandi-m-cossairt", "title":"Brandi Cossairt Website" } ], "sponsors":[ { "group_name":"Department of Chemistry", "group_id":"3761", "website":"https:\/\/lsa.umich.edu\/chem" }, { "group_name":"Materials Chemistry", "group_id":"4388", "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\/138415\/qrcode.png", "occurrence_count":1, "first_occurrence":21882920 } , { "id":"146390-21898984", "datetime_modified":"20260310T091941", "datetime_start":"20260320T090000", "datetime_end":"20260320T110000", "has_end_time":1, "date_start":"2026-03-20", "date_end":"2026-03-20", "time_start":"09:00:00", "time_end":"11:00:00", "time_zone":"America\/Detroit", "event_title":"Rahul Jha -

Thus, understanding how this reaction is catalyzed will help in development of energy conversion technologies. The catalytic center is a Manganese complex (Mn4CaO5) which gets oxidized progressively upon absorption of light before releasing the stored energy and oxidizing water. Structural studies of PS II have been limited at traditional synchrotron sources due to radiation damage of this complex. The emergence of X-ray free-electron lasers (XFEL) with intense femtosecond X-ray pulses have opened opportunities to collect structural data on PS II under physiological temperature. The time-resolved electron density changes at the Manganese complex reveal notable structural changes, including the insertion of a new water OX, which disappears upon completion of the reaction [1-3]. We are also able to follow the structural dynamics of the protein coordinating with the complex, revealing well- orchestrated conformational changes in response to electronic changes at the Manganese cluster.

https:\/\/umich.zoom.us\/j\/94764879233?jst=2\n\nAbstract: A major goal for the field of quantum computation is \u201cquantum advantage\" -- the first experimental demonstration of a quantum computation that is beyond the capabilities of any classical computer. While we have now seen many quantum advantage claims made by experimental groups around the world, many of these claims have been disproven. \n\nIn this talk, we'll discuss the status quo regarding the latest experimental quantum advantage claims and the evidence for their classical hardness. We\u2019ll then discuss the classical verification problem, and propose a new quantum advantage proposal that uses ideas from quantum error correction to enable a large gap between classical verification and simulation.\n\nBio:\nI am an Associate Professor in the Department of Computer Science at the University of Chicago.\nPreviously, I held research positions at the University of California at Berkeley, advised by Umesh Vazirani, and in QuICS, at the University of Maryland\/NIST.\nI received my Ph.D. in computer science from the Department of Computer and Mathematical Sciences

The project responds to documented challenges in doctoral education including unclear success criteria, inconsistent mentoring, and hidden cultural norms and seeks to generate actionable, evidence-based pathways for systemic improvement. We designed and deployed a mixed-methods pilot survey to chemistry graduate students measuring six domains informed by prior graduate-education and equity scholarship: (1) graduate milestones, (2) research competency, (3) teaching competency, (4) advisor support (academic and emotional), (5) peer and departmental culture, and (6) academic and demographic background. This talk will center on the qualitative data which is founded on academic citizenship, which is a set of behaviors, responsibilities, and relational practices through which members of an academic community contribute to its collective functioning, integrity, and well-being beyond their individual scholarly outputs. It includes activities such as mentoring, service, collaboration, care work, and stewardship that sustain learning environments, support colleagues and students, and advance the shared mission of the institution and discipline. Findings show that academic citizenship is unevenly distributed across student groups and is most strongly predicted by research competency and access to departmental resources. Advisor emotional support and advisor skill dynamics emerged as significant contributors to academic citizenship. Results informed department-level interventions, including (1) a redesigned first-year experience course integrating research, teaching, communication, and wellness, and (2) a multidimensional mentoring model grounded in sociopolitical noticing and disciplinary metaphors (chemist, family, coach). The project demonstrates that departmental culture can be surfaced, measured, and intentionally reshaped to create conditions where graduate students thrive because of rather than in spite of our systems.", "occurrence_notes":null, "guid":"138425-21882930@events.umich.edu", "permalink":"http:\/\/events.umich.edu\/event\/138425", "building_id":"1000158", "building_name":"Chemistry Dow Lab",

However, the study of the learning experiences of neurodivergent students is currently limited within the field of chemistry. This seminar will focus on qualitative research that explores the experiences of neurodivergent undergraduate chemistry students in lecture settings through semi-structured interviews with participants from across the United States. Through interpretative phenomenological analysis \u2013 a participant-oriented approach that seeks to understand how participants make sense of their lived experiences while also recognizing the researcher\u2019s role in interpreting those perspectives \u2013 our research focuses on understanding how neurodivergent students describe their lived experiences within chemistry lecture settings and what these experiences reveal about how they think, perceive, engage, and learn within these settings.

These features make them attractive for applications where surface-guest interactions and durability dictate performance, including corrosive gas storage, water purification, energy storage, and catalysis. In many cases, performance can be improved by fine-tuning bulk microporosity, yet factors affecting this key property remain poorly understood. This seminar describes efforts to identify how synthetic pathways shape microporosity in amorphous porous networks.

Coherent interactions between single spins and single phonons take place in the quantum regime of spin-mechanics. A network of these resonators can enable phonon-mediated coupling between distant electron spin, leading to a mechanical quantum network of spin qubits and providing an experimental platform for developing spin-based quantum computers. \nIn this talk, I will discuss our recent advance in achieving ultracoherent GHz diamond nanomechanical resonators and in developing mechanical quantum networks of spin qubits in diamond. Localization and localization phase transitions induced by deterministic onsite potentials in a mechanical network are also exploited for the realization of extended network connectivity, which is deemed essential for large-scale fault tolerant quantum computers. \n\nBio:\nHailin Wang received B.S. and Ph.D. degrees in physics from the University of Science and Technology of China and the University of Michigan in 1982 and 1990, respectively. He was a research investigator at the University of Michigan and subsequently a staff consultant at AT&T Bell Laboratories. He joined the University of Oregon in 1995 where he is now a professor of physics. Dr. Wang has made important contributions to the current understanding of coherent as well as incoherent optical processes in semiconductor nanostructures. He also made the first experimental demonstration of amplitude squeezed light from an injection-locked diode laser and developed a fused silica optical resonator that feature highly directional evanescent tunneling. His work on exciton spin coherence and biexciton coherence has recently led to the first demonstration of electromagnetically induced transparency for interband optical transitions in semiconductors. His current research interest includes optical manipulation of quantum coherences in semiconductors and especially its application in both classical and quantum information processing. Dr. Wang is a recipient of an NSF-CAREER award and is a fellow of the Optical Society of America.", "occurrence_notes":"https:\/\/umich.zoom.us\/j\/91761768567?jst=2", "guid":"142261-21890281@events.umich.edu", "permalink":"http:\/\/events.umich.edu\/event\/142261", "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":1, "livestream_type":"zoom", "livetream_require_login":0, "livestream_id":"917617685672", "livestream_link":"https:\/\/umich.zoom.us\/j\/917617685672", "cost":"", "tags":["Chemistry"], "website":"", "links":[ ], "sponsors":[ { "group_name":"Quantum Research Institute", "group_id":"5043", "website":"" }, { "group_name":"Department of Physics", "group_id":"1965", "website":"" }, { "group_name":"Electrical and Computer Engineering", "group_id":"3153", "website":"http:\/\/www.ece.engin.umich.edu" }, { "group_name":"Computer Science and Engineering Division", "group_id":"3197", "website":"http:\/\/cse.umich.edu" }, { "group_name":"Applied Physics", "group_id":"3606", "website":"" }, { "group_name":"Department of Chemistry", "group_id":"3761", "website":"https:\/\/lsa.umich.edu\/chem" }, { "group_name":"Materials Science and Engineering", "group_id":"3942", "website":"" }, { "group_name":"Electrical Engineering and Computer Science", "group_id":"3989", "website":"" }, { "group_name":"Quantum Research Institute", "group_id":"5034", "website":"" } ], "image_url":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/attachments\/2026\/02\/event_142261_original-1.jpg", "image_description":"Seminar Flyer", "styled_images":{ "event_thumb":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/resolve\/event_thumb\/media\/attachments\/2026\/02\/event_142261_original-1.jpg", "event_large":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_large\/media\/attachments\/2026\/02\/event_142261_original-1.jpg", "event_large_2x":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/resolve\/event_large_2x\/media\/attachments\/2026\/02\/event_142261_original-1.jpg", "event_large_lightbox":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_large_lightbox\/media\/attachments\/2026\/02\/event_142261_original-1.jpg", "group_thumb":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/resolve\/group_thumb\/media\/attachments\/2026\/02\/event_142261_original-1.jpg", "group_thumb_square":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/resolve\/group_thumb_square\/media\/attachments\/2026\/02\/event_142261_original-1.jpg", "group_large":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/resolve\/group_large\/media\/attachments\/2026\/02\/event_142261_original-1.jpg", "group_large_lightbox":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/group_large_lightbox\/media\/attachments\/2026\/02\/event_142261_original-1.jpg", "event_large_crop":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/resolve\/event_large_crop\/media\/attachments\/2026\/02\/event_142261_original-1.jpg", "event_list":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_list\/media\/attachments\/2026\/02\/event_142261_original-1.jpg", "event_list_2x":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_list_2x\/media\/attachments\/2026\/02\/event_142261_original-1.jpg", "event_grid":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/resolve\/event_grid\/media\/attachments\/2026\/02\/event_142261_original-1.jpg", "event_grid_2x":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/resolve\/event_grid_2x\/media\/attachments\/2026\/02\/event_142261_original-1.jpg", "event_feature_large":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_feature_large\/media\/attachments\/2026\/02\/event_142261_original-1.jpg", "event_feature_thumb":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_feature_thumb\/media\/attachments\/2026\/02\/event_142261_original-1.jpg" }, "qr_code_url":"http:\/\/events.umich.edu\/event\/142261\/qrcode.png", "occurrence_count":1, "first_occurrence":21890281 } , { "id":"138406-21882911", "datetime_modified":"20260304T143449", "datetime_start":"20260409T160000", "datetime_end":"20260409T171500", "has_end_time":1, "date_start":"2026-04-09", "date_end":"2026-04-09", "time_start":"16:00:00", "time_end":"17:15:00", "time_zone":"America\/Detroit", "event_title":"Nanoelectrochemistry for Multi-Dimensional Bioanalysis", "occurrence_title":"", "combined_title":"Nanoelectrochemistry for Multi-Dimensional Bioanalysis: Mei Shen (University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign)", "event_subtitle":"Mei Shen (University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign)", "event_type":"Workshop \/ Seminar", "event_type_id":"21", "description":"Nanoscale in-vivo studies on the signaling of a broad range of neurotransmitters are essential to understand brain functions and diseases. In this talk, I will first describe our efforts in the development and creation of versatile electroanalytical liquid-liquid junction probes to enable the detection of redox-inactive transmitters. By using the liquid\/liquid approach, we circumvent the challenges in the measurement of non-redox-active neurotransmitters using nano-electroanalytical methods. In addition, I will share our recent efforts in developing dual-channel nano-carbon-liquid\/liquid junction electrodes for multi-modal analysis of both redox-active and non-redox-active analytes. Then I will present our studies on high spatiotemporal bioanalysis using model living organisms. We employed scanning electrochemical microscopy (SECM) to position our nanoprobes accurately with nm spatial resolution. Our results show that our nanoprobes, with sizes as small as 15 nm in radius, can detect and quantify the acetylcholine neurotransmission in real time, at a high spatiotemporal resolution, with a high signal-to-noise ratio, and in biologically relevant fluids. The nano\/micro-electroanalytical platform we developed is enabling a variety of new measurements on signaling dynamics across a diverse range of length scales, i.e., at single cells, at single synapses, in living mice brains, and will create exciting opportunities in studying transmission from various neuronal models and in our understanding of neurological disorders from a distinctive perspective. \n \n\nAcknowledgment: I am grateful to the Alfred P.

CyanoHABs", "event_type":"Lecture \/ Discussion", "event_type_id":"13", "description":"About the presentation: \u201cNitrogen availability\u201d refers to the amounts of biologically usable nitrogen forms relative to demand by the biological community. In cyanobacterial harmful algal blooms (CyanoHABs) dominated by the non-diazotrophic cyanobacteria Microcystis aeruginosa, nitrogen availability is critical for the production of the nitrogen-rich toxin microcystin, and may also play a role in shaping M. aeruginosa strain composition and relative abundance of toxic and non-toxic strains. During the annual CyanoHAB in Western Lake Erie, both the dominant form of nitrogen (organic vs. inorganic) and M. aeruginosa strain composition shift as the bloom progresses, as does the heterotrophic bacterial community composition in M. aeruginosa colonies. Recent metagenomics and culture-based work suggests that some of these heterotrophs may be involved in nitrogen acquisition and cycling processes with Microcystis. In this talk I will discuss some of our recent efforts to understand the influence of nitrogen form on Microcystis bloom ecology, via both strain-specific adaptations and interactions with other community members such as heterotrophic bacteria. This includes examining how nitrogen form influences exometabolite production in cultured M. aeruginosa strains, as well as using nano-secondary ion mass spectrometry (nanoSIMS) to measure how cell-specific nitrogen uptake in field communities changes with bloom phase. \r\n\r\nAbout the speaker: Jenan is an Assistant Professor in the Earth and Environmental Sciences Department at the University of Michigan. She earned her PhD in Chemical Oceanography from the Scripps Institution of Oceanography, where she developed an appreciation for the complexity of microbial life and the outsized influence microbes have on their environment. At U-M, her research group studies how aquatic microorganisms, particularly phytoplankton, acquire and use nitrogen, including during CyanoHABs. They combine laboratory culture experiments with field-based environmental observations to link cellular-level nitrogen cycling processes to large-scale geochemical patterns in both modern and ancient environments.", "occurrence_notes":null, "guid":"141223-21888418@events.umich.edu", "permalink":"http:\/\/events.umich.edu\/event\/141223", "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":"https:\/\/register.gotowebinar.com\/register\/7397185928290891872", "cost":"", "tags":["Chemistry"], "website":"http:\/\/ciglr.seas.umich.edu\/", "links":[ { "type":"other", "url":"http:\/\/ciglr.seas.umich.edu\/", "title":"CIGLR Website" }, { "type":"other", "url":"https:\/\/ciglr.seas.umich.edu\/event\/11062025-jenan-kharbush\/", "title":"Seminar Webpage" } ], "sponsors":[ { "group_name":"Cooperative Institute for Great Lakes Research (CIGLR)", "group_id":"3432", "website":"http:\/\/ciglr.seas.umich.edu\/" } ], "image_url":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/attachments\/2025\/10\/event_141223_original-1.jpg", "image_description":"Dr. Kharbush showing off samples in test tubes", "styled_images":{ "event_thumb":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_thumb\/media\/attachments\/2025\/10\/event_141223_original-1.jpg", "event_large":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_large\/media\/attachments\/2025\/10\/event_141223_original-1.jpg", "event_large_2x":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_large_2x\/media\/attachments\/2025\/10\/event_141223_original-1.jpg", "event_large_lightbox":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_large_lightbox\/media\/attachments\/2025\/10\/event_141223_original-1.jpg", "group_thumb":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/group_thumb\/media\/attachments\/2025\/10\/event_141223_original-1.jpg", "group_thumb_square":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/group_thumb_square\/media\/attachments\/2025\/10\/event_141223_original-1.jpg", "group_large":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/group_large\/media\/attachments\/2025\/10\/event_141223_original-1.jpg", "group_large_lightbox":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/group_large_lightbox\/media\/attachments\/2025\/10\/event_141223_original-1.jpg", "event_large_crop":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_large_crop\/media\/attachments\/2025\/10\/event_141223_original-1.jpg", "event_list":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_list\/media\/attachments\/2025\/10\/event_141223_original-1.jpg", "event_list_2x":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_list_2x\/media\/attachments\/2025\/10\/event_141223_original-1.jpg", "event_grid":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_grid\/media\/attachments\/2025\/10\/event_141223_original-1.jpg", "event_grid_2x":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_grid_2x\/media\/attachments\/2025\/10\/event_141223_original-1.jpg", "event_feature_large":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_feature_large\/media\/attachments\/2025\/10\/event_141223_original-1.jpg", "event_feature_thumb":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_feature_thumb\/media\/attachments\/2025\/10\/event_141223_original-1.jpg" }, "qr_code_url":"http:\/\/events.umich.edu\/event\/141223\/qrcode.png", "occurrence_count":1, "first_occurrence":21888418 } , { "id":"143372-21892957", "datetime_modified":"20260107T120429", "datetime_start":"20260420T110000", "datetime_end":"20260420T120000", "has_end_time":1, "date_start":"2026-04-20", "date_end":"2026-04-20", "time_start":"11:00:00", "time_end":"12:00:00", "time_zone":"America\/Detroit", "event_title":"Human Genetics Research Seminar Series", "occurrence_title":"", "combined_title":"Human Genetics Research Seminar Series: presenting Aaron Ragsdale, PhD Assistant Professor Integrative Biology University of Wisconsin-Madison", "event_subtitle":"presenting Aaron Ragsdale, PhD Assistant Professor Integrative Biology University of Wisconsin-Madison", "event_type":"Lecture \/ Discussion", "event_type_id":"13", "description":"Monday, April 20, 2026\r\n11:00am - 12:00pm\r\n1020 Kahn Auditorium, BSRB\r\n\r\nAaron Ragsdale, PhD\r\nAssistant Professor\r\nIntegrative Biology\r\nUniversity of Wisconsin-Madison\r\n\u201cSeminar Title TBD\u201d\r\n\r\nHosted By: Jeffrey Kidd, PhD, Department of Human Genetics\r\n___\r\nOur research aims to understand how evolutionary forces are expected to shape genetic diversity within populations, and then uses this understanding to learn about demographic and selective histories and processes from genome sequencing data.

During this time, patterns of brain development and life history changed to triple the number of neurons produced prenatally, extend synaptic plasticity through a prolonged phase of development, and restructure connectivity between brain regions. At the same time tens of millions of mutations accumulated as fixed changes in the human genome through the processes of selection and drift. A portion of this new genomic information guides the development of uniquely human traits and contributes to disease vulnerabilities shared by all humans. However, connecting human-specific mutations to recently evolved traits remains a major challenge because we lack experimental systems for comparative and functional studies of great ape cortical development. To identify genomic differences underlying unique features or vulnerabilities of the human brain, we are incorporating advances in single cell genomics and genome engineering with great ape cerebral organoid models of brain development. We are enthusiastic for new graduate students to join the team, and the lab is well suited for those with an interest in evolution, neuropsychiatric disorders, neuronal cell diversity, stem cell models, or bioinformatics.", "occurrence_notes":null, "guid":"143397-21893075@events.umich.edu", "permalink":"http:\/\/events.umich.edu\/event\/143397", "building_id":"1005037", "building_name":"Taubman Biomedical Science Research Building", "building_official_id":1005037, "campus_maps_id":"509", "campus_maps_link_path":"alfred-a-taubman-biomedical-science-research-bldg", "campus_maps_link":"https:\/\/maps.studentlife.umich.edu\/building\/alfred-a-taubman-biomedical-science-research-bldg", "room":"1020 Kahn Auditorium", "location_name":"Taubman Biomedical Science Research Building", "has_livestream":0, "cost":"", "tags":["Chemistry"], "website":"https:\/\/medschool.umich.edu\/events?f%5B0%5D=series%3A13266", "links":[ { "type":"other", "url":"https:\/\/medschool.umich.edu\/events?f%5B0%5D=series%3A13266", "title":"Human Genetics Research Seminar Series" } ], "sponsors":[ { "group_name":"Department of Human Genetics", "group_id":"1137", "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\/143397\/qrcode.png", "occurrence_count":1, "first_occurrence":21893075 } , { "id":"139546-21885715", "datetime_modified":"20250918T135034", "datetime_start":"20260506T160000", "datetime_end":"20260506T171500", "has_end_time":1, "date_start":"2026-05-06", "date_end":"2026-05-06", "time_start":"16:00:00", "time_end":"17:15:00", "time_zone":"America\/Detroit", "event_title":"Cody Ross Pitts Seminar", "occurrence_title":"", "combined_title":"Cody Ross Pitts Seminar: Cody Ross Pitts (UC Davis)", "event_subtitle":"Cody Ross Pitts (UC Davis)", "event_type":"Workshop \/ Seminar", "event_type_id":"21", "description":"Title & Abstract TBD", "occurrence_notes":null, "guid":"139546-21885715@events.umich.edu", "permalink":"http:\/\/events.umich.edu\/event\/139546", "building_id":"1000158", "building_name":"Chemistry Dow Lab", "building_official_id":1000158, "campus_maps_id":"34", "campus_maps_link_path":"willard-h-dow-chemistry-laboratory", "campus_maps_link":"https:\/\/maps.studentlife.umich.edu\/building\/willard-h-dow-chemistry-laboratory", "room":"", "location_name":"Chemistry Dow Lab", "has_livestream":0, "cost":"", "tags":["Chemistry"], "website":"", "links":[ ], "sponsors":[ { "group_name":"Department of Chemistry", "group_id":"3761", "website":"https:\/\/lsa.umich.edu\/chem" }, { "group_name":"Organic Chemistry", "group_id":"4389", "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\/139546\/qrcode.png", "occurrence_count":1, "first_occurrence":21885715 } , { "id":"143393-21893074", "datetime_modified":"20260107T120504", "datetime_start":"20260511T110000", "datetime_end":"20260511T120000", "has_end_time":1, "date_start":"2026-05-11", "date_end":"2026-05-11", "time_start":"11:00:00", "time_end":"12:00:00", "time_zone":"America\/Detroit", "event_title":"Human Genetics Research Seminar Series", "occurrence_title":"", "combined_title":"Human Genetics Research Seminar Series: presenting Tony Capra, PhD, Professor Bakar Computational Health Sciences Institute Department of Epidemiology and Biostatistics University of California, San Francisco", "event_subtitle":"presenting Tony Capra, PhD, Professor Bakar Computational Health Sciences Institute Department of Epidemiology and Biostatistics University of California, San Francisco", "event_type":"Lecture \/ Discussion", "event_type_id":"13", "description":"Monday, May 11, 2026\r\n11:00am - 12:00pm\r\n1020 Kahn Auditorium, BSRB\r\n\r\nTony Capra, PhD\r\nProfessor\r\nBakar Computational Health Sciences Institute\r\nDepartment of Epidemiology and Biostatistics\r\nUniversity of California, San Francisco\r\n\u201cSeminar Title TBD\u201d\r\n\r\nHosted By: Xinjun Zhang, PhD, Department of Human Genetics\r\n___\r\nWe use the tools of computer science and statistics to address problems in genetics, evolution, and biomedicine.

Along with other layers of gene regulation, chromatin modification plays a key role in this cellular specialization. Our research focuses on histone modifications such as lysine methylation, and the proteins that recognize these modifications, which are often referred to as chromatin \u2018readers\u2019. Chromatin readers can recruit and act as part of diverse chromatin modifying protein complexes to mediate the silencing of many genes with important functions in cell proliferation and differentiation. We will use a combination of genetic, biochemical and genome-wide sequencing approaches to investigate the striking regulatory complexity of chromatin readers. Our research will contribute to a better understanding of how cells acquire and maintain different fates during development, how chromatin readers contribute to epigenetic inheritance, and how aberrant regulation of histone methylation contributes to the pathogenesis of several human diseases, including cancers.", "occurrence_notes":null, "guid":"143394-21893073@events.umich.edu", "permalink":"http:\/\/events.umich.edu\/event\/143394", "building_id":"1005037", "building_name":"Taubman Biomedical Science Research Building", "building_official_id":1005037, "campus_maps_id":"509", "campus_maps_link_path":"alfred-a-taubman-biomedical-science-research-bldg", "campus_maps_link":"https:\/\/maps.studentlife.umich.edu\/building\/alfred-a-taubman-biomedical-science-research-bldg", "room":"1020 Kahn Auditorium", "location_name":"Taubman Biomedical Science Research Building", "has_livestream":0, "cost":"", "tags":["Chemistry"], "website":"https:\/\/medschool.umich.edu\/events?f%5B0%5D=series%3A13266", "links":[ { "type":"other", "url":"https:\/\/medschool.umich.edu\/events?f%5B0%5D=series%3A13266", "title":"Human Genetics Research Seminar Series" } ], "sponsors":[ { "group_name":"Department of Human Genetics", "group_id":"1137", "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\/143394\/qrcode.png", "occurrence_count":1, "first_occurrence":21893073 } , { "id":"143365-21892954", "datetime_modified":"20260107T102207", "datetime_start":"20260522T120000", "datetime_end":"20260522T150000", "has_end_time":1, "date_start":"2026-05-22", "date_end":"2026-05-22", "time_start":"12:00:00", "time_end":"15:00:00", "time_zone":"America\/Detroit", "event_title":"James V.
