On October 31, 2022, the U.S. Supreme Court heard oral arguments in two cases about the consideration of race in college admissions: Students for Fair Admissions, Inc. (SFFA) v. President and Fellows of Harvard and SFFA v. University of North Carolina. On June 29, 2023, the Supreme Court ruled in favor of Students for Fair Admissions, thereby striking down the Supreme Court's 1978 Regents of the University of California v. Bakke ruling.

Join us to hear from Mara Ostfeld - political scientist and Research Director of the Center for Racial Justice - and Judge Laurel Beatty Blunt - 10th District Court of Appeals Judge for the State of Ohio and Ford School Towsley Policymaker in Residence - to discuss the legal, social, and political implications of the ruling.

Attendees will have the opportunity to ask questions through the YouTube chat box.

The number of children living in multigenerational households has increased steadily since the 1980s. As of 2021, more than 10% of children (roughly 7.5 million) share a home with two or more generations. While the stays may be relatively short, overall, about 30% of children in the United States will live in a multigenerational or skipped-generation household at some point during their childhood. This is even more common for children of color and for those whose adult family members are low income. In this webinar, panelists will examine the scope of the issue and its implications for child well-being and security, as well as opportunities for policy and practice to support these children and their adult household members

The Psychology of Borrowing: Evidence from Kenyan Dairy Farmers

Kevin Carney of the University of Michigan presents.

Access to credit can be an important part of the economic development process: credit allows financially constrained firms to make productive investments and increase their output. Microfinance has been proposed as a vehicle for economic growth, yet recent evidence has shown that microfinance has not achieved the transformative effects that were initially hypothesized. Using a series of field experiments, we explore whether principles from psychology and economics can be employed to improve lending models for smallholder dairy farmers in Kenya. The first experiment studies the borrower side of the problem, focusing on how the endowment effect interacts with collateral requirements to influence demand for loans. The second experiment examines the lender side, exploring how to optimize financial contracts to increase take-up while managing default risk.

Group Dynamics Fall 2023 Seminar Series: Psychological Diversity across the Globe
Do our cultural contexts influence our psychology and behavior — and if so, how? In this RCGD series, we delve into the socio-ecological, histo-cultural, and economic dynamics shaping the diversity of selfhood and its associated cognitive, emotional, and motivational processes. We go beyond the traditional East and West focus to include a wide range of cultural groups. This series will elucidate the implications of psychological diversity across the globe for policies in international relations, politics, economics, business, immigration, and other relevant domains.


Organized by Shinobu Kitayama and Catherine Thomas
In person: ISR Thompson 1430
As permissions allow, seminars from this series are later posted to ISR's YouTube playlist.


The series runs Mondays from 3:30 to 5.


About the Group Dynamics Seminar Series

The Group Dynamics Seminar series is considered one of the longest running seminar series in the social sciences. It has been running uninterruptedly since it was founded by Kurt Lewin in the 1920’s in Berlin. A very important feature of this seminar today is its interdisciplinary nature. Recent seminars have included discussions in “Law and Psychology,” “Racism and Discrimination,” “Social Media,” and “Political Polarization.” The series is offered by the Research Center for Group Dynamics (RCGD), at the Institute for Social Research.

Advancing Antiracism, Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion in STEMM Organizations: Beyond Broadening Participation (September 21, 2023 10:00am) https://events.umich.edu/event/112153 112153-21828515@events.umich.edu Event Begins: Thursday, September 21, 2023 10:00am
Location: Michigan League
Organized By: Rackham Professional Development and Engagement

Every individual, regardless of race, ethnicity, or country of origin deserves the opportunity to pursue an education or career in science, technology, engineering, mathematics, and medicine (STEMM) in a welcoming, supportive, and antiracist environment. Yet, despite considerable investments to increase diversity, equity, and inclusion in STEMM organizations, substantial barriers continue to produce systematically inequitable opportunities and outcomes. The National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine convened a committee, and developed a newly released consensus report titled Advancing Antiracism, Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion in STEMM Organizations: Beyond Broadening Participation, which synthesizes the existing body of research on antiracism, diversity, equity, and inclusion (ADEI) in STEMM organizations and provides guidance and a set of recommendations for stakeholders across the STEMM enterprise to build ADEI into existing systems. This upcoming event at the University of Michigan will provide an overview of the entire report as well as the set of recommendations within it. This event will be followed by a smaller discussion session of the report over lunch between the speaker and students.

Ms. Cohn first became involved with EFF in 1993, when EFF asked her to serve as the outside lead attorney in Bernstein v. Dept. of Justice, the successful First Amendment challenge to the U.S. export restrictions on cryptography.

Ms. Cohn has been named to TheNonProfitTimes 2020 Power & Influence TOP 50 list, honoring 2020's movers and shakers. In 2018, Forbes included Ms. Cohn as one of America's Top 50 Women in Tech. The National Law Journal named Ms. Cohn one of 100 most influential lawyers in America in 2013, noting: "[I]f Big Brother is watching, he better look out for Cindy Cohn." She was also named in 2006 for "rushing to the barricades wherever freedom and civil liberties are at stake online." In 2007 the National Law Journal named her one of the 50 most influential women lawyers in America. In 2010 the Intellectual Property Section of the State Bar of California awarded her its Intellectual Property Vanguard Award and in 2012 the Northern California Chapter of the Society of Professional Journalists awarded her the James Madison Freedom of Information Award.

Background: Ms. Cohn is a graduate of the University of Michigan Law School. She did her undergraduate studies at the University of Iowa and the London School of Economics. For 10 years prior to joining the EFF, she was a civil litigator in private practice handling technology-related cases. Before starting private practice, she worked for a year at the United Nations Centre for Human Rights in Geneva, Switzerland. Ms. Cohn also served as counsel to the plaintiffs in Bowoto v. Chevron, two lawsuits in San Francisco arising from Chevron’s involvement in human rights abuses against environmental protesters in Nigeria.

About EFF: The Electronic Frontier Foundation is the leading nonprofit organization defending civil liberties in the digital world. Founded in 1990, EFF champions user privacy, free expression, and innovation through impact litigation, policy analysis, grassroots activism, and technology development.

Policy Talks at The Ford School: The Injustice of Place (October 4, 2023 4:00pm) https://events.umich.edu/event/112093 112093-21828426@events.umich.edu Event Begins: Wednesday, October 4, 2023 4:00pm
Location: Weill Hall (Ford School)
Organized By: Gerald R. Ford School of Public Policy

Join for a conversation with the co-authors of The Injustice of Place alongside Michigan Congressman Dan Kildee and Community Foundation for Southeast Michigan COO Nicole Sherard-Freeman. Released in August 2023, The Injustice of Place sheds light on America’s most disadvantaged communities, tracing the legacies of our nation’s places of deepest need—including inequalities shaping people’s health, livelihoods, and upward social mobility for families. Wrung dry by powerful forces and corrupt government officials, the “internal colonies” in these regions were exploited for their resources and then left to collapse.

The book's co-authors will reflect briefly on the book, followed by an armchair conversation with Congressman Dan Kildee (D-MI) and Nicole Sherard-Freeman (COO, Community Foundation for Southeast Michigan).

About The Injustice of Place
Three of the nation’s top scholars ­– known for tackling key mysteries about poverty in America – turn their attention from the country’s poorest people to its poorest places. Based on a fresh, data-driven approach, they discover that America’s most disadvantaged communities are not the big cities that get the most notice. Instead, nearly all are rural. Little if any attention has been paid to these places or to the people who make their lives there.

This revelation set in motion a five-year journey across Appalachia, the Cotton and Tobacco Belts of the Deep South, and South Texas. Immersing themselves in these communities, pouring over centuries of local history, attending parades and festivals, the authors trace the legacies of the deepest poverty in America—including inequalities shaping people’s health, livelihoods, and upward social mobility for families. Wrung dry by powerful forces and corrupt government officials, the “internal colonies” in these regions were exploited for their resources and then left to collapse.

The unfolding revelation in The Injustice of Place is not about what sets these places apart, but about what they have in common—a history of raw, intensive resource extraction and human exploitation. This history and its reverberations demand a reckoning and a commitment to wage a new War on Poverty, with the unrelenting focus on our nation’s places of deepest need.

Identity Polarization in Organizations: Causes, Potential Solutions and Research Agenda (October 6, 2023 1:30pm) https://events.umich.edu/event/113290 113290-21830671@events.umich.edu Event Begins: Friday, October 6, 2023 1:30pm
Location: Ross School of Business
Organized By: Interdisciplinary Committee on Organizational Studies - ICOS

It should perhaps come as no surprise that the identity polarization around socio-cultural issues currently roiling many countries have found their way into business and other organizations. In the U.S., for example, conflicts over religious practices have been on the rise since 9/11; and following the 2016 election, human resource (HR) managers began noticing increasing workplace friction over matters of politics. Such polarization may also be triggered as organizations increasingly take on (at various levels of engagement) issues related to the “#MeToo” and “Black Lives Matter” movements, LGBTQIA+ and voting rights, as well as issues of climate change. Although taking such stands are sometimes embraced by employees –indeed, Gartner HR Research (2021) finds 68% of employees would consider leaving their organization for one that took a stronger stance on socio-cultural issues –as organizational engagement with these issues has increased, so too have examples of internal conflicts characterized by disgust and antipathy between groups and intense infighting within them. Although organizational engagement with issues has long been found to trigger identity dynamics, what is different about these socio-cultural issues is that have become moralized – that is, framed in terms of morally right versus wrong. Building on research on moralization and identity, I will discuss research with my co-authors (Luke Hedden and Hamza Kahn) that explains how such issues enter the workplace, and how an organizations’ engagement with moralized issues can spur unique identity dynamics. These unique identity dynamics include the display of moral emotions (e.g., disgust) toward opposing (and disinterested) groups, and derogation of ingroup members who do not agree strongly enough the group’s stance. I will elaborate new theory at the group level regarding the nature of such intergroup and intragroup identity polarization dynamics, as well as their unique consequences for organizations. In doing so, I explain how moralized issues alter traditional identity processes in organizations and why novel solutions are required to manage them. Finally, I will propose some potential solutions to help organizations alleviate the negative effects of moralized identity conflicts and lay out an agenda for future research.

Clinical prediction models aim to predict a person’s risk of an outcome (e.g. complications, mortality) given their observed characteristics (1). Risk predictions are traditionally derived from regression models. Artificial Intelligence, and specifically Machine Learning methods, are gaining interest to develop predictive algorithms. Predictions from classic models or AI algorithms need to be reliable to provide valid support for tasks such as shared decision making and whether a person should initiate a particular treatment.
The aim of this talk is to review recent developments in prediction model development and validation. Illustrations will be provided from different medical applications. Trustworthiness will be discussed in relation to the statistical aspects -such as sample size and the exceptionality of patients-, model uncertainty, and heterogeneity between contexts of practical application.

PSC Brownbag Series: The 2021 Child Tax Credit, housing affordability, and the living arrangements of families with low incomes (October 23, 2023 12:00pm) https://events.umich.edu/event/109981 109981-21823499@events.umich.edu Event Begins: Monday, October 23, 2023 12:00pm

"The 2021 Child Tax Credit, housing affordability, and the living arrangements of families with low incomes."

Access to safe and stable housing is important for child and adult wellbeing. Yet many low-income households face severe challenges in maintaining stable housing. In this paper we examine the impact of the 2021 temporary expansion to the Child Tax Credit (CTC) on the living arrangements and housing affordability of families with low incomes. We employ a parameterized difference-in-differences method and use national data from a sample of parents who are receiving, or recently received, Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program benefits (N~20,500). We find that the monthly CTC is associated with a higher likelihood that parents reported a change in their living arrangements as well as reduced household size, an effect largely driven by fewer mothers living with a partner (and not a reduction in doubling up). We also find that the credit reduced parents’ likelihood of reporting potential moves due to difficulties affording rent/mortgages as well as the amount and incidence of back-owed rent/mortgages. We find some differences in effects by race and ethnicity and income. Our findings illustrate how the monthly credit allowed parents to gain residential independence from partners, reduce the number of people residing in their household, and reduce their past-due rent/mortgage.

Natasha Pilkauskas is an Associate Professor of Public Policy at the Gerald R. Ford School of Public Policy at the University of Michigan. Pilkauskas’ research considers how demographic, social safety net, and economic shifts in the U.S. affect low-income families with children. Specifically, her work examines children’s shared living arrangements, economic insecurity among vulnerable populations, and the effects of cash transfers, such as tax credits, on low-income families. Much of Pilkauskas’ research focuses on early childhood, a time when poverty and instability are known to have long-lasting detrimental effects on children’s health and development, and when social policies have been shown to have some of the strongest impacts on improving children’s life chances. Pilkauskas holds a Ph.D. in social welfare policy from Columbia University, a Masters in Public Policy from Harvard University and a B.A in Economics and Sociology from Northwestern University.

Investigating the quality of digital trace and data donation

Challenges to traditional survey data collection such as increased costs and decreasing non-response are leading survey researchers to explore new forms of data. Recently, two types of data have received increased focus as a possible replacements or enhancements of surveys: digital trace data and data donation. Digital trace data refers to data produced while individuals interact with digital platforms, such as apps and websites. Data donation, on the other hand, refers to the acquisition of data from online platforms, such as Facebook or Google, directly from users. In a recent study we use an experimental design in a non-probability panel in Germany to explore non-response bias in data donated from Facebook as well measurement error in digital trace data from PCs and mobile phones.

Alexandru Cernat is an associate professor in the social statistics department at the University of Manchester. He has a PhD in survey methodology from the University of Essex and was a post-doc at the National Centre for Research Methods and the Cathie Marsh Institute. His research and teaching focus on: survey methodology, longitudinal data, measurement error, latent variable modelling, new forms of data and missing data.

Flexible Formal Privacy for Public Data Curation

Researchers rely extensively on public datasets disseminated by official statistics agencies, universities, non-governmental organizations, and other data curators. With the increasing availability of data and computing power comes increased threats to privacy, as published statistics can more easily be used to reconstruct sensitive personal data. Formal privacy (FP) methods, like differential privacy (DP), provably limit such information leakage by injecting carefully chosen randomized noise into published statistics. However, the way DP accounts for privacy degradation requires this noise be injected into every statistic dependent on the confidential dataset. This fails to reflect data curator needs, social, legal or ethical requirements, and complex dependency structures between public and confidential datasets. In this talk, I'll discuss statistical methodology that addresses these problems. We propose a FP framework with novel characterizations of disclosure risk when assessing collections of statistics wherein only some statistics are published with DP guarantees. We demonstrate FP properties maintained by our proposed framework, propose data release mechanisms which satisfy our proposed definition, and prove the optimality properties of downstream statistical estimators based on these mechanism outputs. For this talk, I'll discuss a few end-to-end data analysis examples in public health and surveys, showing how theoretical trade-offs between privacy, utility, and computation time manifest in practice when assessing disclosure risks and statistical utility. I'll conclude with a discussion on the implications of this work for survey researchers, focusing on opportunities to incorporate privacy by design in survey planning, experimental design, and other data collection operations.

From October 7, 2001 to August 30, 2021, the US was engaged in it’s longest conflicts in Afghanistan and Iraq. Both wars changed our country forever. For our military members there were immediate casualties, with over 7,000 deaths but more shocking were the 30,000 suicides of Post 9/11 veterans following their service. In this panel we will hear from those who served in these conflicts. What did they experience in the military, why did they join the military, what has their military to civilian transition been like and what are their hopes for the future?

2020 California Neighborhoods Count: A validation of U.S. Census Population Counts and Housing Characteristic Estimates within California

In response to long-standing concerns about the accuracy of census data and about a possible undercount, we conducted the California Neighborhoods Count (CNC) study — the first-ever independent, survey-based enumeration to directly evaluate the accuracy of the U.S. Census Bureau's population totals for a subset of California census blocks. This 2020 research was intended to produce parallel estimates of the 2020 Census population and housing unit totals at the census block level, employing the same survey items as the census and using enhanced data collection strategies and exploration of imputation methods. The CNC block-level population estimates were sensitive to the imputation method used to account for non-responding households, likely in part due to limited availability of administrative data to assist the imputations. CNC identified more housing units than Census (23,929 versus 22,668), which may be due to CNC’s in-person address canvassing. Despite advancements in geospatial imaging software, as well as many other approaches used by the U.S. Census Bureau to assess coverage and validate addresses, in-field address verification might yield a more complete accounting of inhabited housing units than partially conducting address canvassing with in-office approaches.

Lane Burgette is a Senior Statistician at the RAND Corporation. Dr. Burgette’s applied research is primarily focused on health policy, especially Medicare’s physician payment policies. Other recent research projects include an evaluation of the 2020 Census in California, gun policy research, and recidivism risk estimation for employer background checks. Dr. Burgette’s methodological research focuses on causal inference, methods for missing data, and Bayesian modeling. Prior to RAND, he earned his Ph.D. in Statistics at the University of Wisconsin, and was a post-doctoral researcher in the Department of Statistical Science at Duke University.

Location: Cooley Building
Organized By: Nuclear Engineering and Radiological Sciences

Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) has been around for many decades and is used in almost all industries where fluids are in motion. These techniques, however, are not as widely used at the NRC for reactor licensing calculations. Several factors are at play that will likely result in an increase in the use of CFD techniques. Reactor vendors are using CFD in the design of new reactors, computer capacity increases have made the analyses more practical, and recent engineering graduates are familiar with the approach. The ability to predict complex flow behavior in almost any geometry gives CFD the potential to add insights for certain safety analyses that are not realizable with the traditional reactor system codes. Challenges, observations, and lessons learned from 25 years of working with CFD techniques at the NRC are discussed along with considerations for the future.  

Dr. Christopher Boyd is a senior level advisor for computational fluid dynamics (CFD) within the Office of Research at the Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC). His focus is on CFD analyses and benchmarking efforts aimed at understanding safety issues and reducing uncertainty with the overall goal of improving regulatory effectiveness at the NRC. Prior to working for the NRC, he worked as a wind tunnel project engineer focused on measurement techniques and calibration issues in high speed wind tunnels at the Naval Surface Warfare Center in White Oak, Maryland. Dr. Boyd received a Ph.D. in Mechanical Engineering from the University of Maryland in 1996 with academic research interests in turbulence, modelling, and heat transfer.

K-12 Educators in the Crosshairs (November 15, 2023 5:00pm) https://events.umich.edu/event/114735 114735-21833397@events.umich.edu Event Begins: Wednesday, November 15, 2023 5:00pm
Location: School of Education
Organized By: Humility Colloquium

How do we equip K-12 educators to survive devastating attacks on the culture war frontlines? K-12 public educators Matthew Hawn (Tennessee high school social studies teacher) and Elissa Malespina (New Jersey high school librarian) were targeted for having conversations about white privilege and racial equity and justice in a contemporary issues class and for ensuring students’ access to LGBTQ+ and racially diverse books in the school library.

Hawn and Malespina were fired from their jobs, appeared in national headlines, and (in Hawn's case) faced state discipline. During the event, they will share the realities of being under attack and offer advice on creative, sustainable strategies for educators, pre-service educators, and allies to prepare and protect themselves and to fight back collaboratively.

Registration for in-person attendance is suggested, though not required.

There is an all too common misconception that environmental justice law is vague and toothless. In fact, environmental justice law is nearly ubiquitous and has been significantly altering environmental decision-making norms. This talk will address the ways that environmental justice law has already shaped and may in the future shape Great Lakes environmental protection and restoration. Specifically, the talk will define environmental justice law, summarize its history, and go through Great Lakes case studies that illustrate how this legal framework alters decision-making regarding pollution control, natural resources management, and energy regulation.

Culturally Wise Interventions and Their Effects on Psychosocial and Economic Well-Being

People are enculturated actors, shaped by their sociocultural and socioecological contexts. A vast empirical literature has documented that, in Global North contexts that afford greater choice and material abundance, selves are more independent–prioritizing personal interests and autonomy in their preferences and behavior. However, the social psychological literature suffers from glaring gaps in low resource Global South contexts where selves are likely higher in interdependence–prioritizing relationships, roles and obligations in their preferences and behavior (Thomas & Markus, 2023). An agenda on ‘culturally wise’ interventions seeks to fill this gap by experimentally comparing different culturally grounded approaches across diverse sociocultural contexts. Building on theoretical principles of wise interventions (Walton & Wilson, 2018) and culture match (Stephens et al., 2012), culturally wise interventions are attuned to how culturally specific models of self, motivation, and relationality can exert powerful effects on meaning making and behavior. Through experimental evaluations of such intervention approaches in understudied contexts, this research agenda seeks to advance a more comprehensive account of human behavior as well as strategies for promoting psychosocial and economic well-being around the globe. This talk will focus on how culturally wise approaches in sub-Saharan Africa can be leveraged to mitigate poverty and inequality.

Catherine Thomas of the Research Center for Group Dynamics and the University of Michigan, co-organizer of the Group Dynamics Fall 2023 Seminar Series with Shinobu Kitayama, closes the series.

Group Dynamics Fall 2023 Seminar Series: Psychological Diversity across the Globe
Do our cultural contexts influence our psychology and behavior — and if so, how? In this RCGD series, we delve into the socio-ecological, histo-cultural, and economic dynamics shaping the diversity of selfhood and its associated cognitive, emotional, and motivational processes. We go beyond the traditional East and West focus to include a wide range of cultural groups. This series will elucidate the implications of psychological diversity across the globe for policies in international relations, politics, economics, business, immigration, and other relevant domains.


Organized by Shinobu Kitayama and Catherine Thomas
As permissions allow, seminars from this series are later posted to ISR's YouTube playlist.


In person: ISR Thompson 1430
The series runs Mondays from 3:30 to 5.


About the Group Dynamics Seminar Series

The Group Dynamics Seminar series is considered one of the longest running seminar series in the social sciences. It has been running uninterruptedly since it was founded by Kurt Lewin in the 1920’s in Berlin. A very important feature of this seminar today is its interdisciplinary nature. Recent seminars have included discussions in “Law and Psychology,” “Racism and Discrimination,” “Social Media,” and “Political Polarization.” The series is offered by the Research Center for Group Dynamics (RCGD), at the Institute for Social Research.

STS Speaker Series. A History of 'Impairment' (December 4, 2023 4:00pm) https://events.umich.edu/event/102183 102183-21828428@events.umich.edu Event Begins: Monday, December 4, 2023 4:00pm
Location: Tisch Hall
Organized By: Science, Technology & Society

“Impairment” is a key term in Anglophone disability studies and medical discourse, referring to physical difference, limitation, or injury. When disability scholars and activists critique the definition of impairment, they generally place the concept in the genealogy of medicalization and inappropriate pathologization. Yet as this talk will show, the history of impairment is as bureaucratic and actuarial as it is medical.

Popularized by the American life insurance industry in the early twentieth century, "impairment" indicates rating as well as diagnosis—the attachment of value, risk, or financial loss to particular traits. Specifically, impairment emerged as a form of information for corporate surveillance when life insurance companies joined with the Library Bureau in the 1890s to pool data on “impaired risks” among applicants.

This talk is drawn from a forthcoming article by Mara Mills and Dan Bouk, written after years of speculation among the authors that our areas of expertise—the history of disability and technology (Mills) and the history of life insurance (Bouk)—have more than a passing affinity.

Bio: Mara Mills is Associate Professor of Media, Culture, and Communication at New York University and founding co-director of the NYU Center for Disability Studies. She is also a founding editorial board member of Catalyst: Feminism, Theory, Technoscience. She is recently co-editor of Testing Hearing: The Making of Modern Aurality (Oxford 2020), Crip Authorship: Disability as Method (NYU 2023), and a forthcoming special issue of Osiris on "Disability and the History of Science" (2024). Upcoming publications include the NSF-funded edited collection How to be Disabled in a Pandemic (NYU Press), a coauthored book with Jonathan Sterne on time stretching, and an NEH-funded collaborative research project with Michele Friedner on "The Global Cochlear Implant."

Osteoarthritis (OA) is among the most prevalent chronic human health disorders and the most common form of
arthritis. Specific mechanisms associated with the joint destruction during OA are largely unknown. Due to the
lack of biomarkers, it is impossible to identify patients exhibiting early stages of OA, leading to severe joint
destruction. Furthermore, due to poor understanding of the underlying disease mechanisms, no approved
disease-modifying therapies to treat OA exist. Therefore, early detection and early intervention is critical to
restore joint functions.
My translational research program is directed towards:
(1) Understanding the complex cellular and molecular mechanisms associated with joint destruction during
osteoarthritis
(2) Identifying reliable biomarkers for early identification of patients with osteoarthritis to enable early
intervention using our large-scale OA biobank that we have created (over 150,000 banked specimens)
(3) Identifying novel therapeutic targets to stop/delay osteoarthritis and restore joint function

Inclusive Research Matters Series: Equity and the ACA’s impact on Indigenous birth givers (January 29, 2024 12:00pm) https://events.umich.edu/event/115747 115747-21835459@events.umich.edu Event Begins: Monday, January 29, 2024 12:00pm
Location: Institute For Social Research
Organized By: Institute for Social Research

Abstract: Indigenous birth givers bear a disproportionate burden of poor pregnancy outcomes (e.g., preterm birth, hypertensive disorders, gestational diabetes mellitus, severe maternal morbidity, and maternal and infant mortality) that disrupt birth ceremonies and portend future health concerns experienced by children, mothers, families, and communities. Indigenous birth givers also often hold citizenship in sovereign Nations with whom the US has agreements of fiduciary responsibility. The Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act (ACA) is a complex set of policies that have demonstrated positive impact on perinatal health. Unfortunately, conversations to repeal the ACA are ongoing and often do not include the specific needs or contexts of American Indian and Alaska Native (AIAN) peoples. Because the ACA included several AIAN-specific provisions, there is opportunity for differential impact and ultimately, the potential to reduce health inequities between AIAN and white birth givers. In partnership with an advisory board of Indigenous health services and policy experts, this project combines qualitative and quantitative research analyzing national datasets and interviews with expert consultants to provide understanding of how to make federal health policy work equitably for Indigenous birth givers in the US.

Stuart Batterman (Environmental Health Sciences) and Simone Sagovac (Southwest Detroit Environmental Vision) will discuss the local impact of fugitive dust on air quality. Moderated by Natalie Sampson (University of Michigan Dearborn).

What is fugitive dust: it's when significant atmospheric dust arises from the mechanical disturbance of granular material exposed to the air. Dust generated from these open sources is termed "fugitive" because it is not discharged to the atmosphere in a confined flow stream. Common sources of fugitive dust include unpaved roads, agricultural tilling operations, aggregate storage piles, and heavy construction operations.

Fair Enough? Support for Redistribution in the Age of Inequality (January 31, 2024 12:00pm) https://events.umich.edu/event/114600 114600-21833096@events.umich.edu Event Begins: Wednesday, January 31, 2024 12:00pm
Location: Institute For Social Research
Organized By: Institute for Social Research

What explains the public’s muted response to income inequality? To answer this question, Fair Enough? proposes a new framework for studying attitudes toward redistributive social policies in times of rising inequality. These attitudes, Cavaille argues, are shaped by at least two motives. First, people support policies that increase their own expected income. Second, they support policies that move the status quo closer to what is prescribed by shared norms of fairness. In most circumstances, saying the “fair thing” is easier than reasoning according to one's own economic interest. But there are important exceptions: when policies have large and certain pocketbook consequences, people take the self-interested position instead of the “fair” one. Combined with a new theory of fairness concerns, this simple framework helps explain puzzling attitudinal trends in post-industrial democracies including a decline in support for redistribution in Great Britain, the erosion of social solidarity in France, and a declining correlation between income and support for redistribution in the United States.

Location: Off Campus Location
Organized By: Information and Technology Services (ITS)

Dr. Alessandro Acquisti, Trustees Professor of Information Technology and Public Policy at Carnegie Mellon University's Heinz College, and the co-director of the CMU Center for Behavioral Decision Research (CBDR), will deliver a presentation on the economics of privacy in the context of augmenting economic arguments with non-economic considerations in order to address the broad concept of privacy.

Dr. Acquisti will discuss how the economics of privacy could expand its horizons and relevance both by considering economic dimensions and research questions that have so far received limited attention, and by accounting for the broader scholarship on privacy coming from other disciplines. As a complement to the contributions of other fields, rather than a substitute for them, the economics of privacy may keep thriving and remain a useful tool for debate and policy making.

Dr. Andrea Forte, Professor of Information and Dean of the University of Michigan School of Information, will deliver opening remarks.

Dr. Florian Schaub, Associate Professor of Information, School of Information, and Associate Professor of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science, College of Engineering, will facilitate a panel discussion including Dr. Nazanin Andalibi, U-M Assistant Professor of Information, School of Information and Assistant Professor of Digital Studies Institute, College of LSA and Dr. Kirsten Martin, William P. and Hazel B. White Professor of Technology Ethics and is Professor of IT, Analytics, and Operations in the Mendoza College of Business at the University of Notre Dame, after the presentation.

The event is free and open to the public.

I lead a group 8 scientists in the Skeletal/Connective Tissue Diseases Therapeutic Focus Area at Regeneron. Using Velocimmune mice and other antibody technologies my team develops reagents and bioassays for the screening and selection of therapeutic antibodies and other engineered biomolecules. We also leverage human genetics for target discovery by functionally model disease associated variants in vitro and in vivo. Our work to understand the molecular mechanism of ACVR1 mutations in Fibrodysplasia Ossificans Progressiva (FOP) demonstrated that Activin A is both a necessary and sufficient driver of Heterotopic ossification in FOP using an anti-Activin A blocking antibody prevented heterotopic bone formation in a ‘genetically accurate’ mouse model of FOP. Regeneron has completed Phase II trials and is in Phase I studies in FOP.

Are you a rising junior at University of Michigan Ann Arbor? Are you interested in attending graduate school after your bachelor’s degree? Do you care about health disparities and the social impact of research? 

If you answered yes to these three questions then the Student Opportunities for AIDS/HIV Research (SOAR) program may be for you. SOAR is a two-year experience for juniors and seniors that aims to prepare students for graduate education and eventual careers in behavioral and social science research involving HIV/AIDS, with a focus on sexual and gender minority communities and communities of color.

Join current SOAR students and program staff to learn more about program. We'll talk about why the SOAR program is unique and can answer any questions about the application process, program activities, benefits and more. 

Pizza will be provided!

****************
SOAR is funded by a grant from the National Institute of Mental Health (NIMH) and the National Institutes of Health’s (NIH) Office of Behavioral and Social Science Research (OBSSR).

The program is administered out of the University of Michigan’s Institute for Research on Women and Gender, in collaboration with the School of Public Health, School of Nursing, School of Social Work, and College of Literature Science & the Arts.

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

Speaker: Julián Gutiérrez Albilla, Professor of Spanish and Portuguese, Gender Studies and Comparative Literature at University of Souther California. His interests include Spanish and Latin American Cinema, Visual Culture, Gender Studies, Queer Theory, Psychoanalysis, Trauma and Memory. Among his books are Aesthetics, Ethics, and Trauma in the Cinema of Pedro Almodovar (2017) and Queering Buñuel: Sexual Dissidence and Psychoanalysis in his Mexican and Spanish Cinema (2008).

The aim of this paper is twofold. On the one hand, this talk will reflect on Bracha L. Ettinger´s matrixial psychoanalysis´ explicit and implicit contribution to feminist and queer theory, and transgender studies by focusing on the representation and creation of affective relationships and border spaces of co-emergence and co-affection, thus creating and allegorizing trans-subjective encounters between artistic practices and spectators. This talk will present some of the aesthetic, ethical, and political implications underpinning Ettingerian psychoanalysis by emphasizing the dialogue and the productive tensions between Ettinger’s theoretical propositions and one of her most important interlocutors, namely Lacan. On the other hand, this paper focuses on finitude, mourning, and trans-subjectivity to offer a historical and theoretical account of how Spanish and Latin American visual artists and filmmakers have reflected, responded to, or remembered the AIDS epidemic since the 1980s. Drawing on Ettinger’s matrixial psychoanalysis, my talk conceives queer art and cinema of the 1980s and 1990s as a trans-subjective encounter between the spectator and the traces of individual and collective trauma that moves us beyond our individual and finite limits of ego, identity, and body. Emphasizing the transformative aesthetic, ethical, and political potential of this kind of trans-subjective mourning, my paper uses Ettinger’s term “wit(h)ness”—that is, bearing witness to and with the other—to describe how Spanish and Latin American queer artists and filmmakers of the 1980s and ‘90s used their art and cinema to engage audiences in a trans-subjective processing of the traumas associated with the loss, illness, and mortality exposed by the AIDS virus, while simultaneously gesturing towards an aesthetic, ethical, and political transformation in the way that individuals relate to each other.

Location: Michigan League
Organized By: Center for Global Health Equity

The health benefits of nature are attracting increasing popular and scientific attention, but specific impacts of global change on human well-being remain poorly quantified and difficult to predict. In this talk, Dr. Ricketts will describe ongoing efforts to estimate health impacts of land-use change in developing countries, using a unique dataset including 800,000 children in more than 40 countries.

To date, his research has revealed that nearby forest cover and protected areas improve several dimensions of children’s health, including water-borne disease, stunting, diet diversity, and malaria. In all cases, the impact of nature on health outcomes is stronger for more vulnerable populations. These and other studies can help to identify when and where nature conservation can constitute an investment in public health and social justice.

This event is co-sponsored by the School for Environment and Sustainability, the International Institute, the Office of Global Public Health, and the Institute for Global Change Biology.

Location: Michigan Union
Organized By: Puentes

Puentes is excited about its upcoming Latinx Research Week (LRW). Latinx Research Week is an interdisciplinary, conference-style series of events that we host annually on campus to uplift research being conducted by Latinx staff, faculty, and students, as well as research relevant to Latinx populations. This year Latinx Research Week will be held on March 11th - 14th in the Michigan Union. In 2023, we were thrilled to host 16 research sessions, allocate space for over 70 presenters, and welcome over 300 attendees across our events. We hope to see an even greater turn out this year.

he theme for Latinx Research Week 2024 is Illuminating Familismo. Familismo is a psychological construct as well as a protective Latinx cultural value that emphasizes the importance of family support, loyalty, and honor. Through our interdisciplinary program, we hope attendees will reflect on, interrogate, and reimagine how the academy can be transformed to acknowledge, welcome, and illuminate both our biological and chosen familial relationships. In past years, we have seen spouses, partners, siblings, parents, children, and members of the larger Latinx community attend Latinx Research Week in support of their presenting family members, thus reimagining what an academic conference could and should look like. Additionally, we have seen other families in attendance: families of co-workers, cohort-mates, best friends, and lab families to name a few. We recognize that many members of the Puentes familia may be far from home but have still chosen to plant roots here and create meaningful communities of chosen family members at UM. We hope that our curated program will illuminate the importance of familismo and encourage attendees to imagine how we can transform academic spaces into more inclusive spaces that honor our families, chosen or otherwise, and the ways they have supported our academic journeys. Latinx Research Week 2024: Illuminating Familiso highlights the many ways our families motivate, inspire, encourage, humanize, and uplift us as we conduct groundbreaking work in our respective fields.

2024 Arthur Aiton Lecture: Creatures of Fashion: Animals, Global Markets, and the Transformation of Patagonia (March 13, 2024 4:00pm) https://events.umich.edu/event/117680 117680-21839840@events.umich.edu Event Begins: Wednesday, March 13, 2024 4:00pm
Location: Tisch Hall
Organized By: Department of History

This talk challenges images of Patagonia and Tierra del Fuego as idyllic, wild places by revealing how the exploitation of animals was central to the regions’ transformation from Indigenous lands into the national territories of Argentina and Chile. 

Drawing on evidence from archives and digital repositories, historian John Soluri traces the nineteenth- and twentieth-century circulation of furs and fibers to explore how the power of capitalist fashion stretched far beyond Europe’s houses of haute couture to entangle the fates of Indigenous hunters, migrant workers, textile manufacturers with those of fur seals, guanacos, and sheep at the “end of the world.”

Carnegie Mellon University history professor John Soluri's teaching and research uses transboundary approaches to understand social and environmental change in Latin America and beyond. A founding member of the Society for Latin American and Caribbean Environmental History (SOLCHA), his writing focuses on Central and South America. He is the author of "Creatures of Fashion: Animals, Global Markets, and the Transformation of Patagonia" (2024) and "Banana Cultures: Agriculture, Consumption, and Environmental Change in Honduras and the United States" (revised ed., 2021).

This lecture is sponsored by the Aiton Lecture Committee in collaboration with the Eisenberg Institute for Historical Studies.

"Co-Designing Translation: Using Implementation Science and Community Engagement to Reduce the Research-to-Practice Gap"

Implementation science and community engagement are essential to the co-design of optimal treatments to improve population health outcomes and equity. This workshop, co-led by MICHR and the Department of Learning Health Sciences will feature Drs. Gretchen Piatt and Susan Murphy who will present work on engaging community partners in implementation research, and how a learning health system framework can facilitate this process. The workshop will also feature brainstorming sessions on co-designing implementation research projects across different community-based settings which will feature practical tools on how to use implementation science, learning health system framework, and community engagement methods to promote the more rapid translation of effective treatments in community settings.

Organized By: Center for Global Health Equity

The health benefits of nature are attracting increasing popular and scientific attention, but specific impacts of global change on human well-being remain poorly quantified and difficult to predict. In this talk, Dr. Ricketts will describe ongoing efforts to estimate health impacts of land-use change in developing countries, using a unique dataset including 800,000 children in more than 40 countries.

To date, his research has revealed that nearby forest cover and protected areas improve several dimensions of children’s health, including water-borne disease, stunting, diet diversity, and malaria. In all cases, the impact of nature on health outcomes is stronger for more vulnerable populations. These and other studies can help to identify when and where nature conservation can constitute an investment in public health and social justice.

This event is co-sponsored by the School for Environment and Sustainability, the International Institute, the Office of Global Public Health, and the Institute for Global Change Biology.
