Beyond the Pandemic: Challenges and Opportunities for Changes in Education
Wednesday, May 12 at 1pm EDT
https://umich.zoom.us/j/96351558688

At the end of the school year in 2020 parents, educators, and researchers, wondered how to deal with the “COVID slide” related to achievement and gains in learning due to schools shifting to virtual learning across the country. What we did not know at the time is that many schools would struggle to open at all in the Fall of 2020 and online and remote learning would continue to be one of the primary ways that children were educated for the rest of the 2020-21 school year. Today, the question remains: What will parents, educators, and researchers need to consider regarding achievement and learning gains as children are likely to return to in-person schooling in Fall 2021? Dr. Pamela Davis-Kean will discuss her research on how homeschooling was discussed on social media, the issues related to “holding back” or repeating a grade in primary school, and how new proposed policies for free community college may be important for helping those in secondary education get extra time to develop skills for entry into a four-year college.

KEYOWORDS: microprotein, smORF, ribosome profiling

ABSTRACT: Functional protein-coding small open reading frames (smORFs) are emerging as an important class of genes. Several smORF-encoded microproteins have been characterized and implicated in a variety of critical processes, including regulation of mRNA decay, DNA repair, and muscle formation. Thus, rigorous and comprehensive annotation of protein-coding smORFs is critical to our understanding of basic biology and physiology, as well as disease. We recently developed an improved workflow that integrates de novo transcriptome assembly and ribosome profiling to overcome obstacles with previous methods to more confidently annotate thousands of novel smORFs across multiple human cell lines, including hundreds encoded on putative non-coding RNAs. Over 1,500 smORFs are found in two or more cell lines, and ~40% lack a canonical AUG start codon. Evolutionary conservation analyses suggest that hundreds of smORF-encoded microproteins are likely functional. We also find that smORF-derived peptides are detectable on human leukocyte antigen complexes, positioning smORFs as a source of novel antigens. The annotation of protein-coding smORFs radically alters the current view of the human genome’s coding capacity and will provide a rich pool of unexplored, functional human genes.

BIO: Thomas received his B.S. in Biological Engineering from MIT and trained in Prof. JoAnne Stubbe’s laboratory, where he studied the mechanism of ribonucleotide reductase. He then recieved his Ph.D. in Biochemistry & Molecular Biophysics from Caltech as an NIH NRSA predoctoral fellow under the mentorship of Prof. Peter Dervan. His thesis work focused primarily on characterizing the effects of DNA binding pyrrole-imidazole polyamides on DNA replication in prostate cancer cells. Thomas is currently an NIH NRSA postdoctoral fellow in Prof. Alan Saghatelian’s laboratory, where he has developed an integrative platform combining ribosome profiling and de novo transcriptome assembly to discover functional smORF encoded microproteins in the human genome.

From Rescue to Rebuild: Developing a National ECE System That Works (June 3, 2021 1:00pm) https://events.umich.edu/event/83910 83910-21611029@events.umich.edu Event Begins: Thursday, June 3, 2021 1:00pm
Location: Off Campus Location
Organized By: Education Policy Initiative

Between historic bipartisan investments to stabilize and expand access to child care in 2020 and new proposals from Congress and the Biden Administration, the nation is poised to significantly increase access to quality early childhood education (ECE). These investments are acutely needed to ensure that all children—particularly children from families with low incomes—have access to high-quality ECE; working and middle class families have access to affordable care; and early educators are supported and adequately compensated.

As Congress and the Administration consider their next major investments in ECE, however, they need a vision for a new and better system. How do we ensure that our many early childhood programs—including child care subsidies, Head Start, state preschool, and special education programs—can be a system of coherent support from birth through early elementary? Experts will address this question in an upcoming webinar, “From Rescue to Rebuild: Developing a National ECE System That Works.” The webinar will focus on long-term federal policy solutions to build a comprehensive, equitable, and integrated early learning system, drawing from the work of the Learning Policy Institute and New America, as well as the authors of Cradle to Kindergarten: A New Plan to Combat Inequality. It will also address concrete actions that policymakers can take in the near term with federal stimulus funds.

Location: Off Campus Location
Organized By: Center for Connected and Automated Transportation

Currently, urban mobility is facing several challenges: some are the result of long-term urbanization trends and others are the outcome of more recent changes to population behaviors. Addressing these challenges requires systems thinking and a broadening of collaboration between automakers, mobility services companies, and cities. These constituencies must transform, which will determine their new roles in the new, urban mobility. New value chains will emerge along with novel forms of value that will be realized through innovative business models. This presentation, brought to us by Evangelos Simoudis, Ph.D., will highlight the decisions automakers, mobility service companies, and cities must make, and the transformations they will undergo with regards to technology and business models. Dr. Simoudis will also discuss the risks arising from the use of data and artificial intelligence in new, urban mobility.

This roundtable will discuss the US withdrawal from Afghanistan, what it means for the future of Afghanistan, and its broader implications for both the region and combatting terrorism.

Speakers:
Antonio Giustozzi is a visiting scholar at King’s College London and the author of numerous works on the Taliban and Afghan state-building, including the acclaimed *Taliban at War: 2001-2018*. He holds a PhD from the LSE (International Relations) and a BA in Contemporary History from the University of Bologna. He was at the Crisis States Research Centre (LSE) until January 2011. He served with UNAMA (United Nations Assistance Mission to Afghanistan) in 2003-4.

Ambassador Susan D. Page is a professor of practice in international diplomacy at the Gerald R. Ford School of Public Policy's Weiser Diplomacy Center, and a professor from practice at the University of Michigan Law School. She has deep expertise in international relations, particularly in Africa, and served in numerous senior-level roles such as the first U.S. Ambassador to newly independent South Sudan and Deputy Assistant Secretary of State for African Affairs.

Javed Ali is an associate professor of practice at the Gerald R. Ford School of Public Policy. He is a former senior director for counterterrorism at the National Security Council, with over 20 years of professional experience in national security and intelligence issues in Washington, DC. He served in the Defense Intelligence Agency, the Department of Homeland Security, and the Federal Bureau of Investigation, where he also held senior positions on joint duty assignments at the National Intelligence Council, the National Counterterrorism Center, and the National Security Council.

Pauline Jones is professor of political science and director of the Digital Islamic Studies Curriculum (DISC). Her work has contributed broadly to the study of institutional origin, change, and impact, on the former Soviet Central Asia. Currently, she is engaged in two major research projects. One explores the influence of religion on political attitudes and behavior in Muslim majority states with an emphasis on the relationship between religious regulation, religiosity, and political mobilization. The other focuses on identifying the factors that affect the extent to which people comply with public health directives in the context of the COVID-19 pandemic. She has published articles in several leading academic and policy journals, including the *American Political Science Review* and *Foreign Affairs*, and is the author (or co-author) of five books; most recently, *The Oxford Handbook on Politics in Muslim Societies* (Oxford University Press 2021).

Juan Cole is a public intellectual, prominent blogger and essayist, and the Richard P. Mitchell Collegiate Professor of History at the University of Michigan. For almost four decades, Professor Cole has sought to put the relationship of the West and the Muslim world in historical context in works such as his recent *Muhammad: Prophet of Peace Amid the Clash of Empires *(2018) and written extensively on Egypt, Iraq, and South Asia. He is the founder and Editor-in-Chief of the Informed Comment blog and has appeared widely on media, including the PBS News Hour, the Today Show, Rachel Maddow, the Colbert Report, Democracy Now! and many others.

"Recent improvements in modeling and design of RNA-only structures"

ABSTRACT: The discovery and design of biologically important RNA molecules is outpacing three-structural characterization. I'll describe results from my and Wah Chiu's groups that demonstrate that cryo-electron microscopy can resolve maps of several kinds of RNA-only systems. These maps enable subnanometer-resolution 3D coordinate estimation when complemented with multidimensional chemical mapping and Rosetta DRRAFTER computational modeling. If time allows, I'll describe work from the Eterna project to stabilize mRNA molecules to help accelerate worldwide COVID immunization.

The Future of Mobility & Connected Transportation with Smart Infrastructure (September 15, 2021 2:00pm) https://events.umich.edu/event/85754 85754-21628677@events.umich.edu Event Begins: Wednesday, September 15, 2021 2:00pm
Location: Off Campus Location
Organized By: Center for Connected and Automated Transportation

Cavnue was founded with the vision of bringing mobility to everyone. In order to do that, we must expand the autonomous driving capabilities of vehicles beyond where they are today. We believe that simplifying road designs and connecting vehicles to the infrastructure will be an important element in bringing autonomous technology to scale and making safer roads for everyone.

Billions have been invested to date, yet all we see are a few autonomous vehicle pilots running in cities across the country. How will fully driverless cars change mobility forever? What makes the technology so hard? How will connected vehicles and smart infrastructure play a part in bringing this technology to the world? This talk will create a conversation around these questions.

Presentation 1
The Learning Health (Record) System

Speaker:
Philip R.O. Payne, PhD, FACMI, FAMIA, FAIMBE, FIAHSI
Janet and Bernard Becker Professor and Director, Institute for Informatics (I2), Associate Dean for Health information and Data Science, Chief Data Scientist, at Washington University in St. Louis

This presentation will explore the ways in Biomedical Data Science and Informatics research are helping to realize the potential of EHR technologies in the context of creating an LHS, from the optimization of workflow and human factors, to the generation of reproducible and systematic clinical phenotypes, to the delivery of emergent knowledge to both providers and patients via advance clinical decision support systems.

Presentation 2
Techniques and Challenges for EHR Phenotyping

Speaker:
Lisa Bastarache, MS
Research Associate Professor Department of Biomedical Informatics,
Vanderbilt University

Electronic health records (EHR) contain a wealth of real world data that can be used for research purposes. However, extracting phenotype information from EHRs can be challenging. EHR phenotyping can be divided into two types: (1) Fast phenotyping which seeks to capture a broad swath of the medical phenome, and is often accomplished using coded EHR data (e.g. billing codes) and (2) slow phenotyping that seeks to achieve high precision and recall for a single phenotype, and often uses multiple EHR data types (e.g. medications, text, lab results). This talk will describe specific use-cases for both fast and slow phenotyping, and review challenges that are commonly encountered in creating research-grade EHR phenotypes.

Organized By: Comparative Literature

We invite community members of all ages and languages to participate in the annual Translate-a-Thon at the University of Michigan on October 1-2, 2021.

A Translate-a-Thon is a short, intense, community-driven translation marathon, where volunteers interested in translation come together to translate materials for the benefit of our local, national, and international community.

Coordinated by the Language Resource Center and co-sponsored by the Department of Comparative Literature, our Translate-a-thon also promotes a sense of community among translators. We welcome current students and alums, faculty and staff, teachers and students from local high schools, prospective transfer students, professional translators and other interested parties.

This year we are celebrating ten years of the Translate-a-Thon, with a special theme on translation and migration. We kick off the weekend at 3pm on October 1 with a Virtual Conversation with Karla Cornejo Villavicencio, author of The Undocumented Americans. We will highlight translation projects for Freedom House Detroit, to support their mission of outreach to asylum seekers.

A range of other community translation projects will also be available to work on over the weekend, remotely or in person. Check out our Translation Gallery with more information for volunteers to translate work on projects in many languages!

We also welcome colleagues from other colleges and universities who would like to observe our activities in order to learn about organizing similar events at their own institutions. To follow up, we will host a workshop on “How to Run a Translate-a-Thon” (for further details contact complit.info@umich.edu).

"Fluorescent nucleoside analogues with new properties"

HYBRID EVENT
in-person: Forum Hall, Palmer Commons
Zoom: https://umich.zoom.us/webinar/register/WN__vvE2dtHQi-R3h05JUHBzQ

ABSTRACT
Fluorescent nucleoside analogues (FNAs) are powerful probes for studying the structure and dynamics of nucleic acids, which are vital to understanding RNA function, DNA damage repair, nucleic acid–protein interactions, regulatory mechanisms for gene expression, and other aspects of nucleic acid function. Existing FNAs are prone to quenching by base pairing and stacking, are clustered at the blue–green end of the visible spectrum, and have limited brightness as compared with conventional fluorophores. Studies of nucleic acid function would benefit greatly from overcoming these limitations. We have designed, synthesized, and studied a series of fluorescent pyrimidine analogues, aiming to address these limitations and develop a detailed understanding of the relationships between chemical structure and fluorescent responses to local environment in nucleic acids. Included in this series is a tricyclic cytidine analogue DEAtC that is nearly non-fluorescent as a nucleoside, but responds to matched base pairing and stacking with a fluorescence turn-on. A chlorinated tricyclic cytidine 8-Cl-tCO reports on local environment by changes in the vibrational fine structure of its emission spectra. To address the problem of limited brightness, we have design and synthesized a new NFA that we call ABN, which has a conjugated push–pull system similar to those found in bright fluorophores such as rhodamines. ABN is the brightest known FNA when present in duplex nucleic acids, and it is readily detected in single-molecule fluorescence measurements using both 1-photon and 2-photon excitation. Collectively, these FNAs offer new capabilities for biophysical studies on nucleic acids. Comparisons of their structure and properties help to reveal mechanisms for fluorescence changes in response to local environment in nucleic acids.

CREES/Ford U.S.-Russia Future Leaders Professional Development Workshop. U.S.-Russian Strategic Stability Dialogue (October 11, 2021 11:30am) https://events.umich.edu/event/86652 86652-21635289@events.umich.edu Event Begins: Monday, October 11, 2021 11:30am
Location: Weill Hall (Ford School)
Organized By: Center for Russian, East European, and Eurasian Studies

This is an in-person event for U-M students only. This event will not be recorded or livestreamed. Registration for this event is now closed.

After their meeting in Geneva on June 16, U.S. President Joe Biden and Russian President Vladimir Putin issued a Joint Statement announcing the launch of “an integrated bilateral Strategic Stability Dialogue in the near future that will be deliberate and robust.” The Strategic Stability Dialogue offers an opportunity for both sides to examine—and possibly reshape—the fundamentals of the bilateral relationship. High-level dialogue and even working-level contacts have atrophied in recent years. The two sides have not had meaningful discussions on fundamental issues such as arms control, cyber security, interference in domestic politics, “red-lines” in domestic and international behavior, and other “rules of the game.” Nor have they engaged in discussions of such positive efforts as cultural connections, student exchanges, or collaborative scientific research. The U.S.-Russia relationship needs to be updated for the 21st century. Each side needs to examine its national interests and determine how the bilateral relationship reinforces or undermines them—and how both sides can work together to defend and advance their interests. The goal of any negotiation is to find outcomes that both sides can consider a win.

Prior to the workshop, students will receive a small packet of readings on precedents for the Strategic Stability Dialogue and current issues in U.S.-Russian relations. During the workshop, students will break into small groups, each tasked with determining U.S. preferences for the basic structure of the Strategic Stability Dialogue, its conduct, and its mandate and agenda (i.e., the substantive issues it will address).

CREES Noon Lecture. Does Culture Matter? Complexity, Creativity, and Social Change in the Kyrgyz Republic (October 13, 2021 12:00pm) https://events.umich.edu/event/86586 86586-21635101@events.umich.edu Event Begins: Wednesday, October 13, 2021 12:00pm
Location: Weiser Hall
Organized By: Center for Russian, East European, and Eurasian Studies

Although culture is one of American anthropology’s signature analytical concepts, interest in the culture concept has waned in recent decades. In this talk, Professor Borbieva will discuss this phenomenon and its impact on the development projects she observed in Central Asia. Drawing on four years she worked in Kyrgyzstan as a development professional and ethnographer, she argues that the lack of cultural anthropologists’ influence on the topic of culture has, at least in the development sector, empowered simplistic and ethnocentric (and familiar) discourses about diversity and social change. To effectively counteract these discourses, however, cultural anthropologists must update their understanding of culture. This can be done by incorporating insights from the latest research in biological anthropology and systems theory. If today’s popular usage of culture justifies one-size-fits-all visions of human well-being, a reinvigorated understanding of culture will be able to inform more constructive development interventions in Central Asia and beyond.

Noor O’Neill Borbieva is professor of anthropology at Purdue University Fort Wayne. Her research on gender, religious change, and the development sector in the former Soviet Union has been published in numerous journals, including *Slavic Review*, *Central Asian Survey*, and *Anthropological Quarterly*. Her book, *Visions of Development in Central Asia: Revitalizing the Culture Concept*, was published by Lexington Books in 2019.

This is an in-person event for U-M students, faculty, and staff only. You may participate remotely by registering at: http://myumi.ch/r8Mr8

Organized By: Center for RNA Biomedicine

KEYWORDS: translational regulation, gene expression, fluorescence microscopy, intrabodies, single-molecule imaging

ABSTRACT: My lab is creating technology to image mRNA translation in real time and with single-molecule precision in living cells. In this talk, I will introduce our technology and describe how it can be used to amplify fluorescence from newly synthesized proteins as they are being translated from single mRNAs. I will show how we quantify these signals to determine the size, shape, subcellular localization, and mobilities of mRNA translation sites, as well as their protein synthesis dynamics. I will then highlight a few recent applications of our technology, focusing mainly on a new biosensor we have developed to quantify how individual regulatory factors impact single mRNA translation dynamics. Using this biosensor, we provide evidence that human Argonaute2 (Ago2) shuts down translation by down regulating translation initiation on the minutes timescale and helping usher translationally silent mRNAs into P-bodies on the hours timescale. I will conclude by discussing new fluorescent intrabodies my lab is engineering to light up nascent and mature proteins in multiple colors. As these intrabodies can be encoded on plasmids, they can easily be adapted by other labs to image gene activity in diverse living systems.
Timothy J. Stasevich is an Associate Professor in the Department of Biochemistry and Molecular Biology at Colorado State University (CSU). His lab uses a combination of advanced fluorescence microscopy, genetic engineering, and computational modeling to study the dynamics of gene regulation in living mammalian cells. His lab helped pioneer the imaging of real-time single-mRNA translation dynamics in living cells1. Dr. Stasevich received his B.S. in Physics and Mathematics from the University of Michigan, Dearborn, and his Ph. D. in Physics from the University of Maryland, College Park. He transitioned into experimental biophysics as a post-doctoral research fellow in the laboratory of Dr. James G. McNally at the National Cancer Institute. During this time, he developed technology based on fluorescence microscopy to help establish gold-standard measurements of live-cell protein dynamics. Dr. Stasevich next moved to Osaka University, where he worked with Dr. Hiroshi Kimura as a Japan Society for the Promotion of Science Foreign Postdoctoral Research Fellow. While there, he helped create technology to image endogenous proteins and their post-translation modifications in vivo. This allowed him to image the live-cell dynamics of epigenetic histone modifications during gene activation for the first time2. Before joining the faculty at CSU, Dr. Stasevich spent a year as a Visiting Fellow at the HHMI Janelia Research Campus, where he applied superresolution fluorescence microscopy to improve the spatiotemporal resolution of endogenous protein imaging in live cells.

Shift Series: Tools for Dramatic Change (October 20, 2021 4:00pm) https://events.umich.edu/event/88149 88149-21650728@events.umich.edu Event Begins: Wednesday, October 20, 2021 4:00pm
Location: Off Campus Location
Organized By: Poverty Solutions

Designing and implementing significant change for children facing poverty requires thorough and interconnected considerations of data, policy, and people’s voices. National legislation is being enacted to slash child poverty by almost half, city government has set priorities on intergenerational poverty, and local programs are pushing back against economic and racial inequity. Join our panelists to discuss how they’ve used multiple tools to influence federal, city, and neighborhood shifts that affect our most vulnerable populations.

Panelists include:
- Anika Goss, CEO of Detroit Future City, as moderator
- Cheryl P. Johnson, CEO of COTS
- Conrad Mallett Jr, deputy mayor of Detroit
- H. Luke Shaefer, faculty director of Poverty Solutions at U-M

Hosted by GreenLight Fund Detroit and powered by Strategic Community Partners, the virtual event series approaches timely and relevant issues through a racial equity lens and demonstrates the powerful impact of a collaborative, community-minded process.

Audience members also have the opportunity to engage in the discussion through interactive question and answer sessions.

All sessions are free and open to all community members.

PICS Career Event. Nuclear Nonproliferation and Arms Control: Challenges, Opportunities, and Careers (October 26, 2021 12:00pm) https://events.umich.edu/event/87354 87354-21641507@events.umich.edu Event Begins: Tuesday, October 26, 2021 12:00pm
Location: Off Campus Location
Organized By: Program in International and Comparative Studies

The international community faces no shortage of challenges when it comes to preventing the spread of nuclear weapons. The crisis in US-Russia relations, the slow pace of nuclear disarmament, the future of North Korea’s nuclear weapons program, and the emergence of new technologies with military applications–these are just a few of the issues that nuclear policy professionals are working to address today. Each of these problems will require creative ideas and novel methodological approaches to surmount. This talk will highlight different opportunities and career paths for students who may wish to contribute to this process. It will focus in particular on the need for greater diversity, including gender diversity, among experts and practitioners in this field. All students, regardless of their level of knowledge of nonproliferation, disarmament, or arms control, are welcome to attend. Questions are strongly encouraged!

Please note: This session will be held virtually EST through Zoom. This webinar is free and open to students, but registration is required. Once you've registered the joining information will be sent to your email.

Consequences of Receiving Versus Being Denied a Wanted Abortion (November 1, 2021 12:00pm) https://events.umich.edu/event/86164 86164-21631757@events.umich.edu Event Begins: Monday, November 1, 2021 12:00pm
Location: Off Campus Location
Organized By: Institute for Social Research

Michigan Population Studies Center Brown Bag seminars presents:

Diana Greene Foster will discuss the context and findings of The Turnaway Study. The Turnaway Study answers the question, Does abortion hurt women? and the converse, What are the harms when women are unable to get a wanted abortion? Dr. Foster will review the challenges of studying abortion and what has happened in the absence of rigorous data. She will describe the study design of the Turnaway Study and present its major findings about women’s mental health, physical health and the wellbeing of their children. She will describe the reasons people give for seeking to end an unwanted pregnancy and what that tells us about whether one can trust women’s decision-making abilities around pregnancy.

Diana Greene Foster, PhD, is a demographer who uses quantitative models and analyses to evaluate the effectiveness of family planning policies and the effect of unwanted pregnancy on women’s lives. She is a professor at the University of California, San Francisco and Director of Research at the UCSF ANSIRH Program. She led the Turnaway Study, a nationwide longitudinal prospective study of the health and well-being of women who seek abortion including both women who do and do not receive the abortion in the United States. She is currently collaborating with scientists on an NIH-funded Turnaway Study in Nepal. Dr. Foster received her undergraduate degree from UC Berkeley, her MA and PhD in Demography and Public Policy from Princeton University. She is the author of the 2020 book, The Turnaway Study: Ten Years, a Thousand Women and the Consequences of Having – or Being Denied – an Abortion. She is the recipient of the 2021 Harriet B. Presser Award for the study of gender and demography from the Population Association of America.

Michigan Population Studies Center (PSC) Brown Bag seminars highlight recent research in population studies and serve as a focal point for building our research community.

Bayesian models for mercury effects on multiple outcomes in the Seychelles Child Development Study (November 2, 2021 12:00pm) https://events.umich.edu/event/88561 88561-21655084@events.umich.edu Event Begins: Tuesday, November 2, 2021 12:00pm
Location: Off Campus Location
Organized By: Michigan Lifestage Environmental Exposures and Disease Center

Sally W. Thurston, PhD is an Associate Professor of Biostatistics and Environmental Medicine, University of Rochester, Dept of Biostatistics and Computational Biology.

ABSTRACT: The Seychelles Child Development Study (SCDS) Main Cohort was recruited to investigate the association between prenatal mercury (Hg) exposure from maternal fish consumption and the children’s subsequent development. Multiple neurodevelopmental outcomes were measured at several discrete ages. These outcomes can be grouped into different classes or "domains", such as cognition, motor, or memory. Associations of Hg and covariates may differ across outcomes and domains. Motivated by the SCDS, I will first discuss a model for multiple outcomes at a single age under the assumption that each outcome belongs to one domain and domain memberships are known. I will then briefly describe two extensions: a model in which outcomes may have partial domain membership in more than one domain, and a longitudinal multiple outcomes model for cognition when the tests of cognition change with the age of the child.

The goal of Environmental Statistics Week is to disseminate knowledge of advanced statistical methods most relevant to environmental health research with expert-led discussions on statistical concepts.

WCED Lecture. Silver Democracy: Youth Representation in Aging Japan (November 2, 2021 4:00pm) https://events.umich.edu/event/87996 87996-21648239@events.umich.edu Event Begins: Tuesday, November 2, 2021 4:00pm
Location: Weiser Hall
Organized By: Weiser Center for Emerging Democracies

Young people are underrepresented in most political institutions. Yet, there is a lack of research on either the causes behind the shortage of younger politicians or the potential consequences for policy outcomes. Understanding whether younger and older policymakers behave differently in office is especially important in advanced democracies such as Japan that confront declining birthrates and rapidly aging populations. In these countries, politicians face soaring welfare costs and tough decisions about how to allocate scarce resources between the needs of younger working families and elderly retirees. Without the presence of more young people in public office, there is a concern that the decisions made by mostly older politicians will lead to welfare policies that favor the elderly at the expense of younger families. Older politicians may also be less willing than younger politicians to address long-term issues such as welfare reform, which will have a greater impact on younger generations.

In McClean's book project, he uses original, municipal-level data in Japan to examine whether institutional factors can help explain the variation in the age of politicians across elected offices, whether voters have preferences concerning their representatives’ ages, and whether the shortage of younger politicians matters for welfare policy. In this talk, he will focus especially on this last question by discussing how the age of politicians affects how they allocate government spending on social welfare between age groups and over time.

Charles McClean studies comparative politics in advanced democracies with a focus on political institutions, representation, social welfare, local politics, and Japan. Substantively, he is interested in age and representation, the age orientation of welfare programs, and how societies confront the challenges of aging populations. His research uses both quantitative and qualitative methods by combining quasi-experimental analysis of observational data, text analysis, and survey experiments together with interviews with Japanese local and national politicians. Prior to coming to Michigan, McClean earned his PhD in political science from UC San Diego in 2020 and was a postdoctoral fellow in the Program on U.S.-Japan Relations at Harvard University (2020-21).

This lecture is part of the WCED series on "Capitalism and Democracy." 2022 will mark the 30th anniversary of the publication of Capitalist Development and Democracy (by Dietrich Rueschmeyer et. al. in 1992) and the 80th anniversary of the publication of Capitalism, Socialism, and Democracy (by Joseph Schumpeter in 1942). It is thus a perfect occasion to think anew about how capitalism and democracy interact. At WCED we will be hosting a series of events with “Capitalism and Democracy” as our annual theme.

This hybrid event will be presented in person at 1010 Weiser Hall and via Zoom. Register for the live-stream at https://myumi.ch/bvQPw

How close and how much? Linking health outcomes to spatial distributions of built environment features (November 3, 2021 12:00pm) https://events.umich.edu/event/88562 88562-21655085@events.umich.edu Event Begins: Wednesday, November 3, 2021 12:00pm
Location: Off Campus Location
Organized By: Michigan Lifestage Environmental Exposures and Disease Center

Veronica Berrocal, PhD, is an Associate Professor in the Department of Statistics, University of California at Irvine.

Built environment features (BEFs) refer to aspects of the human constructed environment, which may in turn support or restrict health related behaviors and thus impact health. In this talk we are interested in understanding whether the spatial distribution and quantity of fast food restaurants (FFRs) influence the risk of obesity in schoolchildren. Our analysis on the influence of patterns of FFR occurrence on obesity among Californian schoolchildren has indicated that, in 2010, among schools that are consistently assigned to a cluster, there is a lower odds of obesity amongst 9th graders who attend schools with most distant FFR occurrences in a 1-mile radius as compared to others.

Detecting white supremacist speech on social media
Wednesday, November 3, 1pm ET

Social media have been repeatedly shown to harbor white supremacist networks, enabling far-right extremists to find one another, recruit and radicalize new members, and normalize their hate. In order to address the problem of white supremacist speech on social media, platforms must first be able to identify it.

In this talk, Libby Hemphill will present research to understand what white supremacist speech looks like, especially how it’s different from general or commonplace speech, and to determine whether white supremacists try to adapt to avoid detection from social media platforms’ current content moderation systems.

ISR Insights Speaker Series is a series focusing on the research happening at ISR.

Shaefer and Kathryn Edin, the William Church Osborn Professor of Sociology and Public Affairs at Princeton University, will host a panel discussion on the implications of the expanded Child Tax Credit and the potential for the U.S. to adopt a permanent child allowance. Panelists include:
- U.S. Congressman Andy Levin (MI-09)
- Vonnie McLoyd, the Ewart A. C. Thomas Collegiate Professor of Psychology, University of Michigan
- Gene Sperling, The White House American Rescue Plan coordinator and senior advisor to President Biden

LRCCS Noon Lecture Series | When Campaign-Style Enforcement Meets Local Strategic Compliance: The Case of National Affordable Housing (November 9, 2021 12:00pm) https://events.umich.edu/event/84788 84788-21624975@events.umich.edu Event Begins: Tuesday, November 9, 2021 12:00pm
Location: Off Campus Location
Organized By: Lieberthal-Rogel Center for Chinese Studies

Please register in advance for this Zoom webinar here: https://myumi.ch/BoOY1

Campaign-style enforcement is often touted in China as a uniquely effective mechanism to ensure local implementation of national policies. Typically seen in regulatory policies but later extended to social policies, campaign-style enforcement features strong political mandates with numeric targets, massive mobilization of fiscal and administrative resources, and political performance evaluation rooted in China’s hierarchical governmental system. Dr. Liu and her research collaborators’ mixed-method analysis of the national affordable housing mandate during the Twelfth-Five-Year Plan (2011-2015) reveals a nuanced process in which cities adapt the top-down housing mandate to local conditions, thereby leading to a diversity of compliance strategies adopted by local governments.

Zhilin Liu is Associate Professor and the Director of the Public Policy Institute in the School of Public Policy and Management, Tsinghua University, Beijing. She received her PhD in City and Regional Planning from Cornell University in 2007, as well as her Masters Degree in Urban Geography (2002), and Bachelor Degree in Urban and Regional Planning (1999) from Peking University. Her main research interests are in urban governance, housing policy and community development, sustainable urbanization, rural-to-urban migration, institutional theory and multi-level governance. She has published widely in English peer-review journals, including Urban Studies, Cities, Urban Affairs Review, Housing Studies, Journal of Comparative Policy Analysis, Policy Sciences, and numerous Chinese academic journals. She currently serves as a co-editor of the Journal of Comparative Policy Analysis and a member of the Board of Directors for the International Association of China Planning.

Veterans Week: The Untold Story of the Cuban Missile Crisis (November 10, 2021 3:00pm) https://events.umich.edu/event/88525 88525-21654765@events.umich.edu Event Begins: Wednesday, November 10, 2021 3:00pm
Location: Off Campus Location
Organized By: Veteran and Military Services

New York Times bestselling author Michael Tougias will give a lecture and slide presentation on his book Above and Beyond: John F. Kennedy and America's Most Dangerous Spy Mission. In this multimedia presentation Tougias first chronicles the thirteen harrowing days of the Cuban Missile Crisis and then outlines the steps President Kennedy made to reach a decision on a course of action.

Special emphasis is given to the heroes of the crisis: the U-2 pilots who flew unarmed over Cuba to secure the photographic proof that the Soviets were installing nuclear missiles on the island. These pilots helped President Kennedy achieve a difficult objective: have the nuclear missiles removed from Cuba without triggering Armageddon. JFK secretly audio recorded every meeting conducted during the Cuban Missile Crisis. These transcripts, as well as recently declassified CIA documents, form the basis of this fascinating analysis into JFK’s successful decision making.

Tougias will also focus on three lesser-known events that put us on the brink of nuclear war:

The shoot-down of Major Rudolph Anderson who was killed in his U-2 by a Soviet Surface to Air Missile over Cuba.
The accidental incursion of a U-2 from Alaska into Soviet air space, and the chase that ensued, including fighter jets with nuclear tipped missiles.
The Russian submarine commander who wanted to launch his nuclear torpedo when the Americans tried to force him to the surface.

This unique presentation entertains with the dramatic chronicling of the Cuban Missile Crisis (with slides) while providing useful analysis of JFK’s process of tackling major decisions in practical ways that others can learn from and adopt. It’s an especially timely topic today.

He will provide time for Questions and Answers.

Trauma-informed policing: Improving mental health and public safety (November 15, 2021 4:00pm) https://events.umich.edu/event/89176 89176-21660860@events.umich.edu Event Begins: Monday, November 15, 2021 4:00pm
Location: Off Campus Location
Organized By: Gerald R. Ford School of Public Policy

Police deal with trauma on a daily basis, which is not systematically addressed. In the larger discussions about police reform, attention to the well-being of the officers is not mentioned. This neglect can lead to police officers being stressed and disillusioned, which affects their decision-making and mental health in a vicious cycle. Changing policy to help police departments deal with routine trauma can improve the conditions for the police and for policing in general. This discussion will look at the current state of affairs and possible solutions.

Panelists:
Jeff Carek, retired deputy sheriff, founder of "I Got Your 6 Tour"
Alyshia Dyer, Ford School MPP student, former sheriff's deputy
Leah Mills LMSW, CEO of Ntervene
Daicia Price, clinical assistant professor of social work (moderator)

WCEE Roundtable. Is a Polexit on the Horizon? Poland's Domestic Politics, Law, and the EU (November 17, 2021 12:00pm) https://events.umich.edu/event/88664 88664-21656583@events.umich.edu Event Begins: Wednesday, November 17, 2021 12:00pm
Location: Off Campus Location
Organized By: Weiser Center for Europe and Eurasia

On October 7th, Poland's Constitutional Tribunal ruled that key articles in the Treaty on European Union are incompatible with the Polish constitution. The ruling set off a confrontation between Poland and the EU, large protests in Poland, and general fears both in Poland and Brussels that Poland is moving toward a "Polexit." Is it? In this roundtable, political analysts and experts in EU and Polish law will discuss the current crisis' political origins, its institutional underpinnings, and its potential outcomes.

Panelists: Marcin Menkes, associate professor, Warsaw School of Economics, and visiting professor of law, U-M; Sławomir Sierakowski, political analyst and co-founder, Krytyka Polityczna; Jarosław Szczepański, assistant professor of political science and international relations, University of Warsaw, and Academy of Justice, Institute of Law (Warsaw). Moderator: Geneviève Zubrzycki, professor of sociology and CCPS/WCEE director, U-M.

Preventable: COVID-19, healthcare, and the future (November 18, 2021 4:00pm) https://events.umich.edu/event/89110 89110-21660517@events.umich.edu Event Begins: Thursday, November 18, 2021 4:00pm
Location: Off Campus Location
Organized By: Gerald R. Ford School of Public Policy

While the uneven government response to the COVID-19 pandemic may have been responsible for thousands of unnecessary deaths, the pandemic revealed larger issues of health inequity across U.S. society. Andy Slavitt, former Biden White House COVID-19 senior advisor and acting CMS administrator, has outlined the mistakes made, the larger picture of healthcare in America, and prescriptions for alleviating some of those problems. He will be in discussion with Towsley Policymaker in Residence and health advocate Dr. Abdul El-Sayed.

About the book:
From former Biden Senior Advisor Andy Slavitt, Preventable is the definitive inside account of the United States' failed response to the Coronavirus pandemic. Slavitt chronicles what he saw and how much could have been prevented—an unflinching investigation of the cultural, political, and economic drivers that led to unnecessary loss of life.

With unparalleled access to the key players throughout the government on both sides of the aisle, the principal public figures, as well as the people working on the frontline involved in fighting the virus, Slavitt brings you into the room as fateful decisions are made and focuses on the people at the center of the political system, health care system, patients, and caregivers. The story that emerges is one of a country in which—despite the heroics of many—bad leadership, political and cultural fractures, and an unwillingness to sustain sacrifice light a fuse that is difficult to extinguish.

Written in the tradition of The Big Short, Preventable continues Andy Slavitt’s important work of addressing the uncomfortable realities that brought America to this place. And, he puts forth the solutions that will prevent us from being here again, ensuring a better, stronger country for everyone.

CREES Noon Lecture. Neo-nationalism and De-democratization in Hungary: Anti-Gender Policies and the Politics of Resentment (December 1, 2021 12:00pm) https://events.umich.edu/event/88957 88957-21659309@events.umich.edu Event Begins: Wednesday, December 1, 2021 12:00pm
Location: Off Campus Location
Organized By: Center for Russian, East European, and Eurasian Studies

Free and open to the public. Register at: https://myumi.ch/yKeER

For over a decade in Hungary, the FIDESZ government of Viktor Orban has pursued the making of an “illiberal” democracy. During this period, CREES has sponsored lectures on events in Hungary, including Hungary’s outsized influence on populist and far-right movements elsewhere in Europe and more recently in the United States. Today’s roundtable continues this conversation with the work of two Hungarian anthropologists, Violetta Zentai and Margit Feischmidt. Each will briefly discuss aspects of their current work investigating contemporary Hungary under the Orban regime and then open the discussion to questions from the audience. The roundtable will be moderated by professor of anthropology and CREES faculty associate Krisztina Fehervary.

Professor Zentai will provide an overview from her work on the “anti-gender” political discourses propagated by the current authoritarian-populist regime, and its linkages to de-democratization in the region. Anti-gender discourses not only embrace sexist, homophobic, and anti-gender-equality reasoning, but help enact a nativist and biopolitical right-wing social imagination. She will address the transnational sources of this discourse as well as how it is used by home-grown actors to normalize and make respectable forms of discrimination that were once considered populist, backwards, and exclusionary.

Professor Feischmidt’s presentation will draw on a larger project undertaken to understand the cultural logic and social support of new forms of nationalism in Hungary. Here, she will discuss political elites who have fostered the contemporary “Trianon Cult,” a new phenomenon of collective mourning for losses suffered a century ago in the Treaty of Trianon (1920). This “view from above” will be complemented with a “view from below,” by examining the meanings that audiences give to these newly-constructed collective memories. The argument of the paper is that while the Trianon-cult invokes a historical trauma, it in fact speaks to current feelings of loss and resentment.


Margit Feischmidt is a research professor at the Research Centre for Social Sciences, Hungarian Academy of Sciences Centre of Excellence, where she leads the Department for Sociology and Anthropology in Minority Studies. She is also the editor-in-chief of *Intersections. East European Journal of Society and Politics *and professor of communication and media studies, University of Pécs. With a doctoral degree from Humboldt University, she works on issues of migration, nationalism, ethnicity and minorities in East-Central Europe. Her first important publication was *Nationalist Politics and Everyday Ethnicity in a Transylvanian Town* (2006, Princeton University Press) co-authored by Brubaker, Fox and Grancea. After years working mainly on Roma and immigrant minorities in the region, she currently investigates new forms of nationalism, racism and the far-right. Her most recent edited book (with Pries and Cantat) is on civic forms of solidarity (*Refugee Protection and Civil Society in Europe*, Palgrave Macmillan, 2019).

Violetta Zentai is a social anthropologist, associate professor in the Department of Public Policy, recurring visiting faculty in the Department of Sociology and Social Anthropology, and research fellow at the Democracy Institute of Central European University, Budapest-Vienna. Her research focuses on ethnic and gender in/equalities, post-socialist socio-economic transformations, European social inclusion policies, and pro-equality civil society formations. She also worked with the Open Society Foundations for two decades. She co-leads a multi-year project titled Roma Civil Monitor with the participation of 90+ NGOs. Her publications include: *A Reflexive History of the Romani Women’s Movement: Struggles and Debates in Central and Eastern Europe*. (Kocze, Zentai, Jovanovic, Vincze, eds., Routledge, 2018), and *From the Shadow to the Limelight: the Value of Civil Society Policy Monitoring Knowledge in Roma Equality Struggles* (Hojsik, Munteanu, Zentai, eds., CEU, forthcoming).
