ABSTRACT

Control over primary sequence and structure is critical to the development of new functional materials such as catalysts, synthetic affinity ligands and therapeutics, sequence responsive scaffolds, programmable biomaterials and much more. Motivated by these opportunities and the need for sequence-control and structural diversity in polymer research, we present a versatile methodology for the assembly of a new class of sequence-defined macromolecules called oligoTEAs. With sequence-control in hand, we are currently working to establish sensitive solution-phase structural characterization methods to determine their conformational dynamics and to formulate sequence-structure relationships for biological applications. We focus on applications that leverage the advantages of these novel macromolecules such as increased serum stability, precise control of backbone and pendant group sequence, and a large scope of chemically diverse monomers. Current applications under exploration in our lab include the design of cleavable linkers to quantitate intracellular cleavage kinetics, development of novel sequences and conjugates for intracellular drug delivery, and the design of membrane selective antibacterial compounds. In this talk, I will discuss the antibacterial properties of oligoTEAs in more detail by examining the kinetic phenomenon behind their mechanism of action and investigating the effect of primary sequence, composition and structure on antibacterial properties.

How can the body be a laboratory for examining dialogue, choice-making, roles and habits? In this interactive workshop, choreographer and King-Chávez-Parks Visiting Professor Eryn Rosenthal will share some of her research on the connections between a dance form called Contact Improvisation and the political writings of Steve Biko, Ada Colau, Paolo Freire, Nelson Rolihlahla Mandela, Judith Butler, and others. What can the body bring to larger discussions of dialogue-building, diversity, inclusion, and empowerment?

Choreographer Eryn Rosenthal examines the democratic underpinnings of Contact Improvisation, and the role of the body in transgressing previously legislated boundaries. She has worked with choreographers Sello Pesa, Jay Pather and Sol Picó, poet Elizabeth Alexander, and documentary theatre pioneer Anna Deavere Smith, among others. Eryn’s ongoing series, The Doors Project, investigates transitions–political, social, intimate–through site-based performance in different doorways around the world. Her related dance theater performance and MFA thesis, Freedom Suite: Transaction Being Processed, based on ongoing oral history research with anti-Apartheid activists from New Brighton, Port Elizabeth, South Africa, will be touring to several festivals in 2018-19. Eryn is an alumna of the MFA program in Dance at U-M, where she also studied in the Ford School for Public Policy. She has performed and taught throughout the US, South Africa and Europe, and is delighted to be back at U-M as a King-Chávez-Parks Visiting Professor and Artist in Residence for Dialogue-Building, Diversity and Inclusion Initiatives.

About Glomb's talk:
Many of us have focused on getting a good job. But how many of us have focused on making a job good? So often at work, we bumble through our days in unintentional ways. What could happen if we were more intentional and recognized the power we have to improve our work lives?

University of Minnesota Professor Theresa Glomb is trying to help others create positive experiences at work through growth, happiness, and satisfaction. Ultimately, Theresa’s trying to make work great (or at least a little better). In this unique blend of research, personal stories, and practical disciplines, based on her TEDx talk, she shares with us simple, evidence based micro-interventions to improve our working lives.

About Glomb:
Theresa M. Glomb is the Toro Company-David M. Lilly Chair in the Carlson School of Management at the University of Minnesota. She received her PhD in social, organizational, and individual differences psychology from the University of Illinois and her BA in psychology from DePaul University.

Her research suggests the important role of work events, mood, and micro-interventions in predicting on the job behavior and employee well-being. She has conducted field research in dozens of companies, including several Fortune 500 firms, with thousands of workers as participants. Her research uses a variety of methodologies including experience sampling, surveys, interviews, and physiological assessment.

Her work has been published in top management journals such as the Academy of Management Journal and the Journal of Applied Psychology and cited in media outlets such as the Wall Street Journal, The Economist, and Huffington Post.

Future Ship, Offshore and Nautical Research: Bridging the Gap Between Design and Operations

Developing safe, smart and clean ships, offshore structures and ports is the challenge of the maritime industry. What sort of trends do we foresee in transport over sea, naval ships, offshore energy and nautical port design? Is it really possible to develop zero emission ships? Is offshore renewable energy going to be an alternative for offshore oil and gas? Do floating ports and cities help in times of sea level rise and overpopulation? Research should be focused on supporting this challenge. What should be our focus in this research? What interesting physics need to be studied? What will be the tools of the future? What is the role of the human factor in this?

ABSTRACT

Much of the effort in converting biomass to biobased chemicals has been driven by the retrosynthesis of target molecules. An alternative approach is the synthesis of “bioprivileged molecules” that are biology-derived chemical species that can be readily converted to a diversity of chemical products including drop-in replacements and novel species, which can be used for next generation materials, specialty chemicals, nutraceuticals, antimicrobials, insecticides, herbicides, consumer goods, etc. The dual potentiality of a bioprivileged molecule is vital in creating value from biomass since innovative bioproducts represents a powerful driver for the development of biobased chemicals beyond just replacing fossil carbon with renewable carbon. The important role of these molecules has been demonstrated as key intermediates in the integration of biology and chemistry by our NSF Engineering Research Center for Biorenewable Chemicals (CBiRC). Several examples of bioprivileged molecules being developed by CBiRC will be discussed.

This is the Annual Blue/Green Seminar, a joint lecture series inaugurated in Winter 1982 between the Department of Chemical Engineering at the University of Michigan and the Department of Chemical and Material Science Department at Michigan State University.

ABSTRACT

Late transition metal surfaces catalyze a wide variety of industrially important reactions. Experimental and theoretical results concerning the thermodynamics and kinetics of surface chemical reactions of importance in late transition metal catalysis will be reviewed. Topics include: (1) calorimetric measurements of the adsorption energies of small molecules and molecular fragments on single crystal transition metal surfaces, and their comparison to different DFT methods; (2) a new method based on DFT that more accurately estimates adsorbate energies on metals than any existing DFT functional; (3) measurements of the entropies of adsorbates and their trends; (4) a new method for estimating adsorbate entropies and prefactors for surface reaction rate constants that accurately treats the full range of adsorbate statistical behaviors between the ideal 2D lattice gas and the ideal 2D gas limits; and, (5) measurements of the energies of transition metal atoms adsorbed on single crystal oxide supports, and in nanoparticles on oxide supports as a function of particle size and support.

Location: Michigan League
Organized By: Sweetland Center for Writing

A panel of authors (Matt Kaplan, Christine Modey, Joseph Galura, Adrienne Dessel, Jim Crowfoot, David Schoem) from the recently published book, Teaching the Whole Student: Engaged Learning with Heart, Mind, and Spirit (Stylus Press), representing LSA (IGR, MCSP, PiTE, Sociology, Sweetland), SEAS, Social Work (CASC), and LEO will introduce the concept of whole student learning while offering short, specific examples of how each one integrates this approach into their teaching. Small group discussions will follow the panel, focusing on the authors’ pedagogical areas including service-learning, sustainability, intergroup relations, learning communities, and seminar-size classroom settings.

Teaching the whole student is an approach that values each student beyond just their intellectual abilities. These authors care about both the individual student and the community of scholars; emphasize active, experiential learning approaches; cross intellectual and structural boundaries of learning and teaching; and incorporate principles of diversity, equity, and inclusion. They are concerned with the personal and academic well-being and flourishing of students from all backgrounds.

A book signing will take place at the end of the session.

Location: Modern Languages Building
Organized By: Slavic Languages & Literatures

Jindrich Toman: The Jewish Town as Represented Space: Prague, 1820s-1830s

Early decades of the nineteenth century provide a number of journalistic and literary sources that describe Prague's Jewish Town. The present talk uses them to determine the range of strategies used in the social construction of urban territoriality. Analysis is based on texts written by local Gentile authors, Czech and German, but also on nostalgic descriptions by Jewish authors who were actually born in the Jewish Town. Based on this, a contrast between insiders and outsiders, or participation and observation, can be worked out. Other perspectives revolve around the concept of the border and its subversion.

The event will start at 6:30pm with a light supper followed by the presentation at 7pm. Please RSVP to slavic@umich.edu

If you are a person with a disability who requires an accommodation to participate in this event, please contact the Slavic department (slavic@umich.edu or 734-764-5355) at least 4 days in advance.

“Next-Generation Bioelectronic Medicines: Crossing the Valley of Death”

ABSTRACT: Bioelectronic Medicine is an emerging field that capitalizes on minimally-invasive technology to stimulate the autonomic nervous system in order to evoke therapeutic biomolecular changes at the end-organ. In this seminar Dr. Kip Ludwig will discuss his unique experience spanning industry, government, and academia in translating Bioelectronic Medicines from initial proof-of-concept on the bench to commercially approved clinical therapies. Based on this experience he will describe his vision for establishing ‘parallel translation’ to accelerate the integration of new Bioelectronic Medicines into routine clinical practice. Parallel translation is predicated on 1) using bleeding-edge high-resolution technologies in small animal models to provide mechanistic understanding of neuromodulation therapies, 2) conducting experiments in high-throughput large animal models to better understand design issues of anatomical scale that uniquely impact neuromodulation therapies and 3) taking advantage of existing human surgical opportunities that provide access to the nervous system to quickly and safely obtain human data. Performing these three steps ‘in parallel’ is required to more efficiently cross the proverbial ‘valley of death’ for device translation, by simultaneously addressing key unknowns in the business case necessary to obtain funding for advanced clinical trials.
Dr. Ludwig currently serves as the Associate Director of the Mayo Neural Engineering Laboratories (NEL) and leads the Bioelectronic Medicines Laboratory within the NEL. Prior to Mayo Dr. Ludwig served as the Program Director for Neural Engineering at the National Institutes of Health (NIH). He co-led the NIH CREATE Devices translational program, led the NIH translational programs under the White House BRAIN Initiative, and led a trans-NIH planning team in developing the ~250 million dollar SPARC Program to stimulate advances in neuromodulation therapies for organ systems. Dr. Ludwig also worked in the neuromodulation industry as a research scientist where he conceived, developed and demonstrated the chronic efficacy of a next-generation minimally-invasive stimulation device to treat hypertension and heart failure. Through his industry work he oversaw Good Laboratory Practice (GLP) and non-GLPstudies enabling clinical trials in Europe and the United States, as well as participated in the protocol development and execution of those trials. Dr. Ludwig’s device is now approved for sale in seven countries and has progressed to a Phase III ‘Pivotal’ trial in the United States for FDA approval. Based on the European data, his electrode concept was awarded LifeScience Alley’s ‘Life-Saving Breakthrough of the Year’ in 2014.

Many features of the world around us can be represented as networks. There are social networks of friendship or acquaintance, infrastructure networks like the internet or the power grid, transportation networks of roads, railways or airline flights, networks of information like the world wide web, and many others. This lecture will introduce some of the rich history of the study of networks and discuss some of the remarkable advances of the last few years, when a combination of insights from physics, the social sciences, biology, mathematics, and computer science have come together to shed light on issues as diverse as the spread of disease, online dating, scientific collaboration, animal behavior, web search, and the very structure of human society.

Gain inspiring and practical research-based strategies for building organizations that are high performing and bring out the best in people. Learn from leading positive organizational scholars and connect with our community of academics, students, staff, and leaders.

About Fredriksson's talk:
It has only been 40 years since all Cambodian schools were closed and many teachers were killed. The educational system, from kindergarten to university, still suffers from the Pol Pot regime.

The high cost affiliated with sending a child to school in Cambodia makes many poor families struggle to educate their children. The students who make it through high school and enroll at university also face a number of challenges. After spending years learning by memorizing they are suddenly expected to learn by exploring and independently searching for new knowledge. This leads to significant problems with plagiarism and poor performance as well as stress and lowered self-esteem amongst students.

To support learning and wellbeing, from kindergarten to university, we need resources as well as knowledge. Private donors, companies, researchers, and educators worldwide have an important role to play in Cambodia’s development. The challenge is to embrace a holistic perspective. The current challenges are looming so large that no isolated intervention would be able to solve them. Instead we need mindful engagement where every stakeholder gets the best possible information to make a useful contribution.

In the talk, Evelina will share her experience of creating a positive setting for learning and growth. She will talk about how the practice of mindful engagement and the strengths of gratitude, teamwork and creativity pave the way forward; regardless if the task at hand is making sure that a 7-year-old has enough nutrition to focus in class, preventing a 15-year-old from dropping out of school to work in a factory, or supporting a 21-year-old university student who didn’t sleep for days anxious about an approaching deadline.

About Fredriksson:
Evelina is an educator, consultant, journalist, and author. She works with People Improvement Organization Cambodia, serves on the board of the knowledge lab Inter Business Initiative, is the co-founder of the boutique consultancy Lumen Behavior, and teaches at Zaman University Cambodia and Paññāsāstra University of Cambodia.

Evelina has extensive experience with sustainability reporting and applied research. Her main area of expertise is children’s and women’s rights. She recently published a book based on interviews with girls and women in Phnom Penh and is currently conducting research about signature strengths amongst Cambodian students.

Over the years, Evelina has conducted research and has been writing about vulnerable children and women in, for example, Sweden, Cambodia, the Gambia, India, Senegal, Kazakhstan, and Zimbabwe. Evelina developed the grant making strategy for the family foundation Stenbeck Stiftelse that caters to children in need, as well as leading the Reach for Change Global Reporting Initiative (GRI), which was one of the first GRI reports published globally for civil society organizations. Evelina was also responsible for the design, implementation, and PR for one of the most standard Save the Children assessment tools for young people in Sweden.

Hosts:
Jane Dutton, co-founder of the Center for Positive Organizations; Robert L. Kahn Distinguished University Professor Emerita of Business Administration and Psychology and Michael Gordon, Arthur F. Thurnau Professor of Social Entrepreneurial Studies

FinTech Risks and Opportunities: An Interdisciplinary Approach (November 16, 2017 8:30am) https://events.umich.edu/event/46646 46646-10569822@events.umich.edu Event Begins: Thursday, November 16, 2017 8:30am
Location: Hutchins Hall
Organized By: University of Michigan Law School

This two-day event will bring together a wide range of researchers, policymakers, students, and
practitioners from various disciplines.

Financial technology, or FinTech, can be traced back to the introduction of the telegraph in the 1860s. Between then and the 1980s, most FinTech advancements were record-keeping and data systems found in the back offices of financial institutions, out of sight of the public. As internet technology became more available, however, FinTech evolved rapidly. Financial firms digitized their processes, and companies began introducing consumer-facing products such as online banking and PayPal.

Today, FinTech continues to disrupt and to evolve, not only in how financial products and services are delivered, but who delivers them. Regulators and market participants face challenges in
understanding and balancing the benefits of FinTech against potential risks. Innovation helps catalyze growth and new opportunities while generating new risks. Regulatory structures in place could fail to accommodate changes in the financial marketplace. Regulators may overreact to new technologies, stifling innovation and locking in old forms of doing business. At the same time, regulatory complacency can have disastrous results, permitting the buildup of systemic risk or widespread consumer harms.

This conference will explore methodologies that the private sector, researchers, and policymakers
can use harness the upside potential of financial innovation while reducing the downside risks.

Gain inspiring and practical research-based strategies for building organizations that are high performing and bring out the best in people. Learn from leading positive organizational scholars and connect with our community of academics, students, staff, and leaders.

About Quinn's talk:
Warren Bennis wrote that becoming a leader is becoming who you really are. Research shows, counter to conventional thought, that people of transformative power develop a characteristic called idealized influence. They become models worthy of admiration, respect, trust, and emulation. They live from a moral core that generates attractive power. Without authority, they can draw the best out of others. Conventional assumptions prevent us from seeing, understanding or aspiring to this condition.

This limitation constrains organizational efforts in leadership development. Organizations cannot do what they spend much money trying to do. They can develop managers but they cannot develop leaders. This means we have to own our own leadership development. This session will explore how to become who you really are and how to help those around you to do the same.

About Quinn:
Robert E. Quinn is the Margaret Elliot Tracy Professor Emeritus of Business Administration at the University of Michigan. Quinn is one of the co-founders of the field of Positive Organizational Scholarship, an area of inquiry that seeks to understand the best of the human condition. He had published eighteen books on purpose, leadership, and change. He is a fellow of the Academy of Management and has received multiple awards for both teaching and research.

Host:
Gretchen Spreitzer, faculty director of the Center for Positive Organizations; Keith E. and Valerie J. Alessi Professor of Business Administration; Professor of Management and Organizations

Sponsors:
The Center for Positive Organizations thanks Sanger Leadership Center, Tauber Institute for Global Operations, Samuel Zell & Robert H. Lurie Institute for Entrepreneurial Studies, and Diane (BA ’73) and Paul (MBA ‘75) Jones for their support of the 2017-18 Positive Links Speaker Series.

The Positive Links Speaker Series, presented by Michigan Ross’ Center for Positive Organizations, offers inspiring and practical research-based strategies for building organizations that are high performing and bring out the best in its people. Attendees learn from leading positive organizational scholars and connect with our community of academics, students, staff, and leaders.

Positive Links sessions take place at Michigan Ross, and are free and open to the public.

About the talk:
We live in a world of extraordinary pain and suffering. Public confidence in major corporations is at an all-time low. Why? Too many businesses exploit their people and harm their communities for short-term profit. If we are not consciously part of the healing, we are probably part of the hurting. But it doesn't have to be this way.

Business can become the primary agent for healing society. This is not about healing businesses; it is about business as healing. Business can take wounded people, broken communities, and damaged ecosystems and make them whole again – and businesses that operate in this way will be more successful and profitable over time. In this session, Sisodia will share stories of such businesses and extract lessons from them.

About Sisodia:
Raj Sisodia is the FW Olin Distinguished Professor of Global Business and Whole Foods Market Research Scholar in Conscious Capitalism at Babson College. He is also Co-Founder and Chairman Emeritus of Conscious Capitalism Inc.

He has a PhD in Marketing from Columbia University. Raj has published ten books and over 100 academic articles. His books include Conscious Capitalism: Liberating the Heroic Spirit of Business, Firms of Endearment: How World Class Companies Profit from Passion and Purpose, Everybody Matters: The Extraordinary Power of Caring for Your People Like Family, and Shakti Leadership: Embracing the Feminine and Masculine Future of Business. He is on the Board of Directors at The Container Store, and a trustee of Conscious Capitalism Inc.

“Bioengineering of synergistic innate and adaptive immunotherapy of cancer”

Harnessing the immune system to attack cancer has started a revolution in oncology. The ability of the adaptive immune system to track such evolving pathologies has provided robust responses and cures in 10-25% of previously intractable cancers such as metastatic melanoma. The next frontier is to “raise the tail” of the survival curve in such cancers by finding synergistic combination therapies. Chemical and biological engineers have pioneered approaches that are well suited to such investigations, bringing quantitative problem-solving synthetic and analytical toolkits to bear. I’ll provide examples from my lab where cocktails of anti-tumor antibodies and cytokines have accomplished highly safe and efficacious therapies as tested in mouse models of cancer.

Location: Walgreen Drama Center
Organized By: CEW+

The Women of Color in the Academy Project (WOCAP) will present its 7th Annual Shirley Verrett Award on February 12th, 2018 from 5:00-6:30 p.m. at Stamps Auditorium on U-M's North Campus. The award will be given to Dr. Naomi André, an Associate Professor in the Department of Afroamerican and African Studies, Women’s Studies, as well as the Residential College where she serves as Associate Director for Faculty. A reception honoring Dr. André will immediately follow in the lobby.

Dr. André was selected as the recipient of this award in recognition of her scholarship and musicological inquiry into the representation of race, voice, and gender, her deep commitment to diversity as an educational mission, and her contributions to teaching and mentoring women of color scholars in the arts.

Dr. André’s publications include topics on Italian opera, Arnold Schoenberg, women composers, and teaching opera in prisons. Her forthcoming book, Black Opera, History, Power, Engagement (University of Illinois Press, Spring 2018) focuses on how opera has become a unique arena for expressing blackness and presenting new narratives about the intersections of race, gender, and nation, in the West (United States and Europe) as well as in South Africa. Her earlier books, Voicing Gender: Castrati, Travesti, and the Second Woman in Early Nineteenth-Century Italian Opera (2006) and Blackness in Opera (2012, co-edited collection) focus on opera from the nineteenth to the mid-twentieth centuries and explore constructions of gender, race, and identity.

“Adding Logic to Complex Protein Functions”

Proteins are the most versatile among the various biological building blocks. However, the strength of proteins - their versatility and specific interactions - also complicates and hinders their systematic design and engineering. Our lab has been interested in exploiting the modular nature of protein domains to design synthetic complexes that can perform new biological functions. By adding logical components into the design, protein complexes that are dynamic rather than static in nature can be created to adapt to the constantly changing cellular environments. In this presentation, I will outline several successful examples in connecting exchangeable protein domains for predicative engineering applications in (1) energy substantiality and (2) human health.

A More Human Dwelling Place: Reimagining the Racialized Architecture of America (February 16, 2018 9:30am) https://events.umich.edu/event/48424 48424-11233230@events.umich.edu Event Begins: Friday, February 16, 2018 9:30am
Location: Hutchins Hall
Organized By: University of Michigan Law School

Presented by the Michigan Journal of Race & Law, "A More Human Dwelling Place: Reimagining the Racialized Architecture of America" is a symposium happening on February 16 and 17 at the University of Michigan Law School.

Over two days, we will examine five archetypal spaces in America: homes and neighborhoods, schools, courthouses, prisons, and borders. The symposium endeavors to consider the ways in which these spaces have become increasingly racialized, diagnose how that racialization impedes their basic functioning, and reimagine these spaces at their best, and our world as a more human dwelling place. James Baldwin gave us this name, embedded in his imperative “to illuminate that darkness, blaze roads through vast forests, so that we will not, in all our doing, lose sight of its purpose, which is, after all, to make the world a more human dwelling place.”

The symposium will bring together individuals working to better these spaces, hailing from many disciplines, including law, history, sociology, journalism, literature, architecture, urban planning, and visual art. Together, we hope to conceptualize forgotten or not yet dreamed of alternatives. Through discussions of projects already realized and ideas not yet concrete, we will collectively inch toward the world we wish to inhabit.

The symposium is free and open to the public. All are welcome.

Organized By: Center for Research on Learning and Teaching

Although there is often pressure for instructors to use “best practices” or the most effective teaching model, research on specific teaching models and strategies is mixed. There is overwhelming evidence that creating an autonomy-supportive learning environment, in which instructors seek to adopt student perspectives and allow students to take more ownership of their learning, has numerous benefits. In this session, we will present data supporting these ideas, collected through a large-scale, course transformation program, which uses the framework of self-determination theory to help instructors increase student engagement and motivation. We will also discuss some benefits and challenges of long-term and widespread data collection.

In the interactive session, participants will have the opportunity to identify relevant research questions, potential data collection measures, and available resources to help with scholarship endeavors. We will also consider the wide-range of benefits of including scholarly inquiry in your teaching activities.

The Positive Links Speaker Series, presented by Michigan Ross’ Center for Positive Organizations, offers inspiring and practical research-based strategies for building organizations that are high performing and bring out the best in its people. Attendees learn from leading positive organizational scholars and connect with our community of academics, students, staff, and leaders.

Positive Links sessions take place at Michigan Ross, and are free and open to the public.

About the talk:
In this talk, Dutton and Worline invite you to consider the power of high quality connections in organizations as a source of competitive advantage. Research on the power of high quality connections (and the pathways to build them) offers insights into how we can infuse organizational practices (such as onboarding, meetings, talent development, and shift changes) with a greater capacity for building high quality connections. The presentation will offer practical examples of how to re-imagine everyday organizational routines as opportunities to build employee engagement, health, creativity, and resilience.

About Dutton:
Jane Dutton is the Robert L. Kahn Distinguished University Emerita Professor of Business Administration and Psychology at the University of Michigan and co-founder of the Center for Positive Organizations. Her research on Positive Organizational Scholarship began with an interest in compassion and the difference it makes for individuals and organizations, and has expanded to focus on the power of positive relationships at work, job crafting, and positive identities.

About Worline:

Then we will describe M-Write, a cross-disciplinary writing-to-learn program at the University of Michigan. After these preliminaries, we will describe two studies that were conducted in large, foundational U-M classes using MWrite. The first study was aimed at understanding how writing can both elicit and remediate student-held misconceptions in introductory biology. The second study examined the cognitive complexity of student argumentative writing in general chemistry to better understand the relationship between student writing moves and learning.

The second hour will include a panel of U-M faculty who have used MWrite in their classrooms. This will give audience members opportunities to hear about the daily experiences of implementation and ask questions. Faculty who will participate are:
Laura Olsen: M-Write in Biology 174: Introduction to Cell and Molecular Biology
Mitchell Dudley: M-Write in Economics 101: Principles of Economics 1
Brenda Gunderson: M-Write in Statistics 250: Introduction to Statistics and Data Analysis

Location: Michigan Union
Organized By: Ginsberg Center

Update as of 3/12/18: due to inclement weather Mariame had to cancel her visit to our campus. We will be in touch if we are able to reschedule her visit.

The election of Donald Trump has catalyzed historic levels of activism around the country. The Women’s March on the day after the inauguration in 2017 is considered to be the largest single day demonstration ever. However, students have been organizing in large numbers, notably after the killing of Trayvon Martin, which catalyzed the Black Lives Matter movement.

In this workshop, educator and organizer Mariame Kaba will illuminate the long history of activism for change, especially those with youth at the center. She will draw from recent examples of students engaging and creating social change, as well as her own history of organizing, to illuminate the pitfalls and promises of this current moment. This session will highlight how educators can effectively support and challenge students engaged in activism.

*This event is for Faculty and Staff. See MHappenings for Graduate Student session.

Foundational Course Initiative (FCI) Seminar Series - Beyond Multiple Choice: Using Open-Ended Questions and Student Behavior Data to Promote Engagement and Understand Learning (March 16, 2018 12:00pm) https://events.umich.edu/event/50450 50450-11768330@events.umich.edu Event Begins: Friday, March 16, 2018 12:00pm
Location: Palmer Commons
Organized By: Center for Research on Learning and Teaching

Large lecture courses often suffer from low participation. Many students are uncomfortable asking questions verbally during class. Using personal response systems, e.g., i>clicker, to ask multiple-choice (MC) questions is one technique often used to increase engagement in such courses. However, using MC questions for formative assessment does not reveal the students’ reasoning. In this seminar, we will discuss how allowing anonymous, digital questions increases participation dramatically and how including justification along with a MC answer can uncover misconceptions. In the second half of the session, we will engage in discussion about available student data for your courses and other data you’d like to be able to collect. Then, we’ll consider what you might do with the data and how we can expand the community of instructors who are using student behavior data to inform their teaching.

Learning Objectives
1. Participants will learn what measures of student behaviors in class are available.
2. Participants will learn what measures of student background are available and what IRB approvals are needed.
3. Participants will learn how these data can inform instructors and create opportunities for personalized feedback.

Rescheduled from February 9, 2018.

The Positive Links Speaker Series, presented by Michigan Ross’ Center for Positive Organizations, offers inspiring and practical research-based strategies for building organizations that are high performing and bring out the best in its people. Attendees learn from leading positive organizational scholars and connect with our community of academics, students, staff, and leaders.

Positive Links sessions take place at Michigan Ross, and are free and open to the public.

About the talk:
As the world gets smaller, people with different cultural backgrounds are colliding like never before. A root cause of many everyday tensions between genders, races, and social classes is the clash between the values and practices of independence and those of interdependence. Drawing from her book, Clash! How to Thrive in a Multicultural World, Markus will show how recognizing and including interdependence within workplace culture cycles can bridge divides and enhance individual motivation, creativity, and performance.

About Markus:
Hazel Rose Markus is Professor of Psychology and Davis-Brack Professor in the Behavioral Sciences at Stanford University and a member of the National Academy of Sciences. She is also co-director of SPARQ: Social Psychological Answers to Real-world Questions. Her research focuses on how culture shapes mind and behavior. She examines how multiple forms of culture (e.g., national origin, ethnicity, race, social class, gender and occupation) influence the self, and in turn, psychological functioning, including cognition, emotion, motivation and intergroup processes.

Location: Palmer Commons
Organized By: Center for Research on Learning and Teaching

In this session, Mary Lou Dorf (Electrical Engineering and Computer Science, EECS) and Mika LaVaque-Manty (Political Science) will share their experience with large courses in two very different fields that both tap into student creativity and imagination. They found that their classrooms were fundamentally transformed when they decided that the courses were not about specific factual content, but rather about the skills students take away that are relevant to their lives and the world they inhabit. In their courses, students rose to high expectations when instructors communicated confidence that students could reach those expectations and provided the resources needed. Furthermore, with deliberate effort, Dorf and LaVaque-Manty created explicitly inclusive courses to the benefit of all students. These kinds of changes make possible large courses that inspire students to say, “This changed my life.”

In developing courses that tap into student creativity and imagination, tools for teaching at scale (multiple choice quizzes, auto-graded homework, etc.) still play an important role. In order to make the more labor-intensive aspects of courses work at large scale, it’s essential to staff these courses with a team of instructors and to balance the automated with the artisan. The presenters will discuss how they achieved this balance.

In the second hour, participants will engage in a discussion of how to apply the principles that promote creativity, imagination, and inclusivity in their own courses. In particular, we will consider how to make content relevant to students’ lives and their world, how to plan for and assemble the resources needed, and how to set expectations that are high enough, but not so high that students get lost. We’ll also address the reasonable fear of failing to provide an adequate educational experience for students when making radical changes to your approach to a course.

Abstract

Molecular-Scale Modeling of Polymer-Nanoparticle Composites
The incorporation of nanoparticles (NPs) into polymers constitutes a powerful strategy for enhancing their thermomechanical properties and for introducing new optical, electrical, and magnetic functionalities into the polymers. This talk reviews our ongoing efforts in modeling the mesoscale morphology, assembly mechanisms, and thermomechanical properties of polymer nanocomposites. I will begin by discussing Monte Carlo simulations of polymer-grafted shaped NPs to elucidate the role played by polymer grafts in dictating the free-energy landscape, assembly pathway, and relative orientation of the NPs in their higher-order aggregates. These results have led to the development of a novel self-assembly strategy for fabricating tunable plasmonic nanojunctions within a polymer thin film. Next, I will describe an approach involving highthroughput quantitative image analysis and lattice models for inferring dynamic parameters of NP assembly from spatially and temporally disjointed images of composites. Application to shaped, metallic NPs reveals a cluster-cluster aggregation mechanism of assembly, where the NPs and their clusters diffuse in a Stokes-Einstein manner and stick with a probability that depends on their size and geometry as well as molecular weight of the surrounding polymer. Finally, I will discuss the application of atomistic and coarse-grained molecular dynamics simulations in predicting thermomechanical properties of polymer nanocomposites, especially viscoelastic behavior in the context of shock-mitigation materials, and mechanical flexibility and stability in the context of flexible organic semiconductors.

Presented by Emily A. Carter, Princeton University
Lecture Title: "Mechanisms for Sustainable Fuel and Chemical Production from First Principles"

Abstract

Someday the world’s liquid fuels needed for ships and airplanes will come from sustainable sources and low-energy processing. We are far from that day. While that fact is unfortunate, it opens up exciting opportunities for researchers from many different fields to work together to realize that vision. I will report on some of my research group’s contributions toward this goal, as we develop and apply quantum mechanics-based simulation methods to unravel mechanisms associated with (photo) electrochemical water oxidation and carbon dioxide reduction at semiconductor electrodes and plasmon-catalyzed bond breaking over metal nanoparticles. The talk will focus primarily on CO2 photoelectroreduction to fuel precursors but will also outline the potential for plasmonic catalysis to replace, e.g., the energy-intensive Haber-Bosch process. This latter work illustrates the potential to develop a non-thermal, low-pressure, visible-light-based approach to ammonia synthesis and hence to sustainable fertilizer production.

Owning Expertise: An event designed for U-M faculty (May 15, 2018 3:00pm) https://events.umich.edu/event/52306 52306-12631426@events.umich.edu Event Begins: Tuesday, May 15, 2018 3:00pm
Location: Off Campus Location
Organized By: Michigan News

"OWNING EXPERTISE"
Presented by Michigan News in the Office of the Vice President for Communications, this interactive talk by Katie Orenstein, founder and CEO of The OpEd Project, addresses core questions of thought leadership: What do we know, why does it matter, and how can we maximize our impact? The goal is for attendees to leave with bold ideas, a deeper sense of what they know and stand for, and actionable steps for public engagement—a U-M presidential initiative.

All faculty at the University of Michigan are invited and encouraged to attend.

ABOUT THE OPED PROJECT
The OpEd Project is a think tank and leadership organization founded to change who writes history. They are a community of journalists and thought leaders who actively share knowledge, resources and connections across color, creed, class, sexuality, gender, orientation and more. Through their nationally acclaimed curriculum, and through a portfolio of programs in partnership with leading institutions across the nation and the globe, their goal is to accelerate the ideas and impact of underrepresented voices. For more information, visit theopedproject.org.

ABOUT THE SPEAKER
Katie Orenstein, founder and CEO of The OpEd Project, writes and speaks frequently about the intersection of media and mythology—that is, what we think is fact or fiction and how that shapes our ideas about politics, culture and history. She has contributed to the op-ed pages of The New York Times, The Washington Post and Miami Herald. Her commentaries on women, politics, popular culture, mythology and human rights have been nationally syndicated and appear in anthologies. Orenstein, a graduate of Harvard (BA) and Columbia (MA), has lectured at Harvard and Stanford universities, and appeared on ABC TV World News, Good Morning America, MSNBC, CNN, and NPR All Things Considered.

MORE INFO
The keynote will take place on the 4th floor Great Lakes Room in Palmer Commons (100 Washtenaw Ave., Ann Arbor) 3 p.m.-5 p.m. Tuesday, May 15.
Light refreshments will be available.
Please RSVP by Friday, May 11, 2018. Seats are first come, first served.
RSVP is for head count; no physical ticket is required.

"Nanocrystallinity, Supracrystals: Unexpected Behavior"

ABSTRACT: The nanocrystals with low size distribution self assemble in 3D superlattices called supracrystals. The crystalline structure of nanocrystals called nanocrystallinity plays a key role on these self-assemblies Heterogeneous and homogeneous growth processes of supracrystals take place inducing marked changes in their physical properties.

We describe some physical and chemical properties of nanomaterials differing by the crystalline structures called nanocrystallinity: It is demonstrated that nanocrystallinity plays a major role in the final structure when nanocrystals are subjected to oxidation processes (Kinkendall effect). Concerning the optical properties, some processes are markedly affected by the crystalline structure whereas others are negligeable.

“Clustered” and “eggs” structures are hydrophobic supracrystals are dispersed in aqueous solution with a very high stability (almost two years). Solubilization of hydrophobic supracrystal in aqueous solution is obtained with Co and Au supracrystals with appearance of tunable plasmonic metamaterials. With Au supracrystals, the optical properties revealed that the fingerprint of nanocrystal is preserved even for large crystalline aggregates demonstrating that the nanocrystal could be used as a probe for investigating the optical properties of such assemblies.

Location: GG Brown Laboratory
Organized By: Civil and Environmental Engineering

Towards geotechnical site characterization, seismic piezocone penetration testing (SCPTu) offers up to five separate measurements with depths from a single sounding: cone tip resistance (qt), sleeve friction (fs), porewater pressure (u2), time rate dissipation (t50), and shear wave velocity (Vs). Thus it is an expedient and economical means for obtaining stratification of the ground and the determination of a variety of soil engineering parameters for analysis and design, including nonlinear stress-strain-strength curves for clays and sands. Calibration and documentation of selected geoparameters are presented with statistical datasets. Moreover, direct CPT methodologies have been developed for application to shallow footings, piling foundations, and seismic liquefaction evaluation. Case studies are presented to show the utilization of SCPTu in geotechnics.

Bio: Paul Mayne. P.E., PhD, a professor of Civil & Environmental Engineering at the Georgia Institute of Technology, has been selected as the 2018-2019 Cross-USA Lecturer for the Geo-Institute of the American Society of Civil Engineers. With 42 years in geotechnical engineering, Prof. Mayne is an expert in geotechnical site characterization, particularly the cone penetrometer, piezocone, dilatometer, and seismic tests with applications to foundation systems and ground modification. He has published 320 technical papers and participated in 120 short courses.

Leakage is a major safety issue that, if left unchecked, may result in dam failure by various mechanisms. However, a lack of appropriate leakage investigation and monitoring can result in repairs that are unsuccessful in controlling or reducing leakage. A series of techniques have been developed to help in the assessment of leakage and seepage in dams. These techniques allow for identification of recharge zones, preferential paths, and transit times, which aid in monitoring and mitigating the dam leakage. The presentation describes various techniques and reviews several projects in the United States and abroad involving detection and prevention of dam and reservoir leakage, including leakage evaluation, analysis, design, construction, and post-construction verification of repairs.

Located in Dubai, UAE, the Burj Khalifa Tower is the world’s tallest man-made structure. The skyscraper soars to over a half mile high (828 meters, 2717 feet). The 280,000 square meter (3 million square feet) reinforced concrete multi-use tower is utilized for retail, a six star Giorgio Armani hotel, residential and office. The goal of the Burj Khalifa Tower is not simply to be the world’s highest building; it’s to embody the world’s highest aspirations. Utilizing amazing images, this energetic presentation will discuss the philosophy behind the construction, structural and sustainable design of the world’s tallest structure.

Larry Novak (Portland Cement Association) served on the structural design team for this structure.

All interested students and faculty are invited to attend.

HET Brown Bag Seminars | Statistical Mechanics of a Two-Dimensional Black Hole (September 12, 2018 12:00pm) https://events.umich.edu/event/54936 54936-13654180@events.umich.edu Event Begins: Wednesday, September 12, 2018 12:00pm
Location: Randall Laboratory
Organized By: HET Brown Bag Series

The dynamics of a nearly-AdS2 spacetime with boundaries can be reduced to that of two particles in the anti-de Sitter space. We determine the class of physically meaningful wavefunctions, and prescribe the statistical mechanics of a black hole. We demonstrate how wavefunctions for a two-sided black hole and a regularized notion of trace can be used to construct thermal partition functions, and more generally, arbitrary density matrices. We also obtain correlation functions of external operators. The talk is based on work with A. Kitaev in the preprint arXiv:1808.07032.
