SUMMARY:Exhibition:Animal Friends: Ceramic Sculpture
DESCRIPTION:Marcia Polenberg loves animals\, each with its own unique personality\, intelligence and expressive range of emotions. Using terra-cotta sculpture clay\, Polenberg hand builds her ceramic animals\, seemingly bringing them to life. The face of each one-of-a-kind work of art expresses happiness\, surprise\, mischief\, or a free spirit. Every sculpture is glazed and fired many times\, building up a rich\, textured colored surface. Holding an MFA from the U-M Penny W. Stamps School of Art & Design in ceramics and sculpture and a BA from the City University of New York in painting\, Polenberg widely exhibits her creative works in several media: ceramics\, paint\, graphite and pastel.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Celebrating Science & Art
DESCRIPTION:The brilliantly colored images in this exhibit were taken in the course of scientific research\, and are beautiful in their detail\, form and symmetry. For each one\, an accompanying explanation describes its significance. The subjects of the images are cells\, tissues and organs\, from a wide variety of biological sources (plants\, worms\, fruit flies\, fish\, mice and yes\, even human brain). The colors are added by investigators\, to allow them to see the otherwise transparent tissues. By looking at these microscopic images\, you will learn about research into normal embryonic development as well as cutting-edge investigations into diseases such as basal cell carcinoma\, bipolar disease\, epilepsy and cancer.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Innovations in Ornament
DESCRIPTION:This group show of jewelry and ornaments includes the work of Roger Martin\, who tackled the subject of a raven by relying on planes and shadow lines to imbue the surfaces of the bird with personality. Another one of the seven artists\, Lorraine Kolasa\, picked up the old fashioned art of tatting\, then cast tiny pieces of her handmade lace into sterling silver jewelry. Michael Nashef\, who spent half his life in war-torn Lebanon\, has created a series of innovative vessels and brooches. Other artists included in this exhibit are Kim Cridler\, Roger Smith\, Renee Zettle-Sterling and Ruth Taubman\, whose unmatched exuberance of color and 36 years of work and business innovation\, place her jewelry firmly on the national stage.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Organic Fiction: Acrylic on Canvas
DESCRIPTION:Hava Gurevich’s colorful abstractions feature botanical\, aquatic and microscopic motifs as she explores repeating patterns in nature. Blending images from the real world and her imagination\, Organic Fiction celebrates nature in all its beauty\, chaos and complexity. Hava Gurevich received a BFA in photography from U-M and an MFA in painting from Illinois State University. Her creative process begins with photographs and sketches of details in nature\, such as tree branches\, ice patterns\, twisted vines\, and delicate spring blossoms. These drawings contribute to her personal vocabulary of shapes and gestures\, and she often digitally combines them with older paintings to become starting points of new works.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Have We Met? Dialogues on Memory and Desire
DESCRIPTION:Have We Met: Dialogues on Memory and Desire draws inspiration from Ann Arbor’s legacy of social movements (Anti-War Movement\, Civil Rights Movements) and experimental art practices (The Once Group) from the late-1950s to the 1970s as its point of departure. It brings together archival materials and reproductions from the University of Michigan’s Labadie Collection and the Bentley Library in conjunction with radical artworks by diverse\, multi-generational artists and designers whose works are deeply influenced by the ideas of freedom and self-determination\; re-writing the canonical accounts of history\; and building contemporary culture and solidarity through collective action.\n\nAt a time when the idea of citizenship in the United States is being deeply challenged and redefined through horrific occurrences of gun violence and police brutality towards racialized and queer civilians and refugees\, this exhibition asks what role art institutions can play in building inclusive and vibrant creative spaces the 21st Century. Have We Met? Dialogues on Memory and Desire retraces and learns from models of collectivity and organizing mobilized by artists\, designers\, and cultural producers in the past and present as a lens to understand the contemporary moment and re-imagine the future.  It explores the complex relationships and at times overlapping and contested concerns between contemporary art\, design\, and social justice that continually influence and inform one another.\n\nArtists: Rudolf Baranik\, Stephanie Dinkins\, Emory Douglas\, Brendan Fernandes\, Chitra Ganesh\, Carole Harris\, Maren Hassinger\, Al Loving\, Josh MacPhee\, Native Art Department International\, Michele Oka Doner\, Yoko Ono\, Kameelah Janan Rasheed\, Martha Rosler\, Buster Simpson\, Gregory Sholette\, Leni Sinclair\, Stephanie Syjuco\, Graem Whyte\, and Zafos Xagoraris. \n\nCurated by Srimoyee Mitra.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Abstraction\, Color\, and Politics in the Early 1970s
DESCRIPTION:Can abstract art be about politics? In the early 1970s\, that question was hotly debated as artists\, critics\, and the public grappled with the relationship between art\, politics\, race\, and feminism. Many of those debates centered on bringing to light the roles that gender and race played in how “great modern art” was defined and assessed\, and on employing art to advance civil rights. Within this discourse\, abstraction had an especially fraught role. To many\, the decision by women artists and artists of color  to make abstract art seemed to represent a retreat from politics and protest: an abnegation of a commitment to civil rights and feminism. \"Abstraction\, Color\, and Politics in the Early 1970s\" presents large-scale work by four leading American artists—Helen Frankenthaler\, Sam Gilliam\, Al Loving\, and Louise Nevelson—who chose abstraction as a means of expression within the intense political climate of the early 1970s.\n\nLead support for \"Abstraction\, Color\, and Politics in the Early 1970s\" is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost\, Michigan Medicine\, the Richard and Rosann Noel Endowment Fund\, the Herbert W. and Susan L. Johe Endowment\, and the University of Michigan Institute for Research on Women and Gender. Additional generous support is provided by the Robert and Janet Miller Fund and the University of Michigan Department of Political Science.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Beyond Borders: Global Africa
DESCRIPTION:More than ever in the era of globalization\, ideas traverse geographic\, generational\, and cultural boundaries\, even as national borders seem to be closing. 'Beyond Borders: Global Africa' reflects on this moment by considering how Africa and its artists have been at the center of complex histories of encounter and exchange for centuries. Bringing together a dazzling array of works made in Africa\, Europe\, and the United States from the nineteenth to twenty-first century\, the exhibition demonstrates the international scope and reach of art from Africa and the African diaspora. It also explores issues such as slavery\, colonization\, migration\, racism\, and identity at play in the objects and their histories. Highlights include paintings\, photographs\, sculpture\, and installations by Kudzanai Chiurai\, Omar Victor Diop\, Wangechi Mutu\, and Serge Alain Nitegeka. The exhibition will be accompanied by a fully-illustrated publication\, the tenth in the UMMA Books series.\n\nLead support for 'Beyond Borders: Global Africa' is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost\, Michigan Medicine\, the National Endowment for the Arts\, and the University of Michigan Office of Research\, African Studies Center\, and Department of Afroamerican and African Studies. Additional generous support is provided by the University of Michigan CEW Frances and Sydney Lewis Visiting Leaders Fund and Susan Ullrich.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:New at UMMA: Life Magazine 1947 Homecoming Photographs
DESCRIPTION:In October 1947\, just two years after the end of World War II\, the popular weekly news magazine LIFE sent staff photographers Lisa Larsen and Ralph Morse to cover homecoming weekend at the University of Michigan. The subsequent article\, “Michigan Homecoming\,” which brought national attention to UM’s athletic program\, featured a seven-page spread with photographs of the campus during a much-anticipated football game between the number-one ranked Michigan Wolverines and the University of Minnesota’s Golden Gophers. This installation provides a unique opportunity to view twenty-one images of that weekend\, many of which were not published in the original article\, recently donated to UMMA by John and Susan Edwards Harvith. Considered alongside the article\, these photographs of fervent fans\, strolling couples\, alumni making their annual pilgrimage\, and the game itself present LIFE magazine’s view of a giddy post-war public enjoying a return to American pastimes.\n\nThese photographs were recently gifted to UMMA by John (AB '69\, JD '73) and Susan (MMP '73) Harvith.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Exhibition | Urban Biographies\, Ancient and Modern
DESCRIPTION:Human beings are political animals\, said the Greek philosopher Aristotle: animals that live in the “polis\,” the Greek word for city. Over two thousand years later\, we are still political animals\, and the study of ancient cities is of abiding interest\, for our perceptions of the urban centers of the past continue to exert a powerful hold on modern culture. \n\nThis exhibition showcases three Classical cities where the University of Michigan sponsors field projects: Gabii in Italy\, Olynthos in Greece\, and Notion in Turkey. The archaeologists excavating these cities\, in collaboration with students and faculty from U-M’s Taubman College of Architecture and Urban Planning\, are comparing their findings to projects of urban rebuilding in contemporary Detroit\, asking two main questions: How do contemporary archaeological methods facilitate the study of both ancient and modern cities? And how can the study of the past help illuminate the challenges and opportunities facing Detroit today? \n\nLead Curator: Christopher Ratté\nCo-Curators: Lisa Nevett\, Nicola Terrenato\, and Kathy Velikov\n\nVisit the exhibition website: http://exhibitions.kelsey.lsa.umich.edu/urban-biographies

SUMMARY:Film Screening:Dragonfly Eyes (2017)
DESCRIPTION:Constructed entirely from real surveillance video\, Dragonfly Eyes is a unique hybrid of fiction and documentary. Director Xu Bing\, one of the most famous fine artists in China\, collected his imagery from online sites that stream surveillance cameras. He stitched them together with a fictional narrative about an ill-fated romance embedded in a chaotic and spectacular modern China. Xu’s ambitious film explores the anxious borderlands between the real and the fictive\, between direct experience and mediated life.\n\n*This is a free screening but registration is required.

DESCRIPTION:Marcia Polenberg loves animals\, each with its own unique personality\, intelligence and expressive range of emotions. Using terra-cotta sculpture clay\, Polenberg hand builds her ceramic animals\, seemingly bringing them to life. The face of each one-of-a-kind work of art expresses happiness\, surprise\, mischief\, or a free spirit. Every sculpture is glazed and fired many times\, building up a rich\, textured colored surface. Holding an MFA from the U-M Penny W. Stamps School of Art & Design in ceramics and sculpture and a BA from the City University of New York in painting\, Polenberg widely exhibits her creative works in several media: ceramics\, paint\, graphite and pastel.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Celebrating Science & Art
DESCRIPTION:The brilliantly colored images in this exhibit were taken in the course of scientific research\, and are beautiful in their detail\, form and symmetry. For each one\, an accompanying explanation describes its significance. The subjects of the images are cells\, tissues and organs\, from a wide variety of biological sources (plants\, worms\, fruit flies\, fish\, mice and yes\, even human brain). The colors are added by investigators\, to allow them to see the otherwise transparent tissues. By looking at these microscopic images\, you will learn about research into normal embryonic development as well as cutting-edge investigations into diseases such as basal cell carcinoma\, bipolar disease\, epilepsy and cancer.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Hineinu – Here We Are: An LGBTQ+ Jewish Photovoice Exhibit
DESCRIPTION:A same-sex Jewish marriage contract (Ketubah). A sign for gender inclusive bathrooms in a Jewish Community Center. A Christmas tree adorned with rainbow-colored ornaments and a Star of David topper. These are three of the 21 photos-with-narratives that constitute “Hineinu – Here We Are: An LGBTQ+ Jewish Photovoice Exhibit.” Combined with rich\, thought-provoking text\, these photos give insight into the varied experiences of local community members who are both Jewish and queer.\n\n“Photovoice” is the process of putting cameras in the hands of traditionally “voiceless” or marginalized community members to allow them to record\, reflect on\, and share their community’s strengths and concerns. Photovoice participants have the opportunity to capture their current experiences through pictures\, with the goal of sparking dialogue and action related to the themes depicted in the photos.\n\nAs you view this Photovoice exhibit\, we hope that you will consider what it means to be inclusive and welcoming\, and that you will continue to develop an awareness of the diversity of other people’s experiences both within and outside of the Jewish and LGBTQ+ communities.

Another one of the seven artists\, Lorraine Kolasa\, picked up the old fashioned art of tatting\, then cast tiny pieces of her handmade lace into sterling silver jewelry. Michael Nashef\, who spent half his life in war-torn Lebanon\, has created a series of innovative vessels and brooches. Other artists included in this exhibit are Kim Cridler\, Roger Smith\, Renee Zettle-Sterling and Ruth Taubman\, whose unmatched exuberance of color and 36 years of work and business innovation\, place her jewelry firmly on the national stage.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Organic Fiction: Acrylic on Canvas
DESCRIPTION:Hava Gurevich’s colorful abstractions feature botanical\, aquatic and microscopic motifs as she explores repeating patterns in nature. Blending images from the real world and her imagination\, Organic Fiction celebrates nature in all its beauty\, chaos and complexity. Hava Gurevich received a BFA in photography from U-M and an MFA in painting from Illinois State University. Her creative process begins with photographs and sketches of details in nature\, such as tree branches\, ice patterns\, twisted vines\, and delicate spring blossoms. These drawings contribute to her personal vocabulary of shapes and gestures\, and she often digitally combines them with older paintings to become starting points of new works.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:David Cope: Player of Invisible Keys
DESCRIPTION:Celebrate the work of Michigan poet David Cope\, once described by Allen Ginsberg as one of the \"leading lights of the next generation.\" This exhibit draws on drafts\, proofs\, and other documents from Cope's archive to offer a glimpse into his poetic and editorial process.\n\nWorking most often in the Objectivist tradition of Charles Reznikoff\, Carl Rakosi\, and George Oppen\, David Cope has a particular gift for descriptive detail and for juxtaposing the the intimacy of daily life with commentary on the arc of current events and the particularity of personal relationships with the universality of human experience. He received the Pushcart Prize for “The Crash” in 1977 and an award in literature from the American Academy and Institute of Arts and Letters for On The Bridge (1986). Additionally\, for more than forty years\, Cope has edited and published a small press literary magazine\, The Big Scream\, providing a venue for more than 200 poets\, including both big names names and younger\, lesser-known poets. Earlier this year\, Ghost Pony Press released Cope’s eighth poetry collection: The Invisible Keys: New and Selected Poems.\n\nOn view during Special Collections Research Center hours: Monday-Friday\, 8:30 a.m. to 5:00 p.m.

SUMMARY:Other:Clinical Science Brown Bag - Transcending the “Everything but the Kitchen Sink”\, “Here & Now”\, and “Good & Bad” in Emotion Regulation
DESCRIPTION:The scientific study of emotion regulation is flourishing\, providing fundamental insights to our understanding of healthy adaptation and clinical conditions. While clearly important\, in this talk I zoom in on three major challenges in current theorizing and empirical evidence. The “Everything but the kitchen sink” problem refers to the tendency to categorize all emotional problems as originating from emotion dysregulation. The “good & bad” problem refers to the categorization of regulatory strategies as inherently adaptive or maladaptive. The “here & now” problem refers to concentration on a single regulatory stage that involves the actual execution or implementation of regulatory strategies. To address these challenges\, I begin by differentiating between emotional problems that originate from emotion generation and those that originate from emotion regulation. I then provide a categorization that highlights the cost-benefit profile of different regulatory strategies. The main part of the talk involves presenting a broad conceptual framework that views emotion regulation as a multi-stage phenomenon. Considerable empirical evidence highlights the importance\, determinants\, consequences and broad developmental and clinical implications\, of a pre-implementation selection stage that involves choosing between available regulatory options in a manner that is sensitive to differing situational demands. I end by highlighting the importance of transcending the selection stage\, by describing a post-implementation monitoring stage that involves tracking implemented regulatory strategies across time.\n\nBio: Gal is an associate professor of psychology\, the head of the clinical psychology graduate program\, and the director of the Emotion and Self-Regulation Laboratory in the School of Psychological Sciences in Tel Aviv University. He is interested in the broad interdisciplinary understanding of core regulatory stages that control emotion and their relation to healthy adaptation and psychopathology. Gal holds a Ph.D. in clinical psychology (summa cum laude) from Ben-Gurion University in Israel. He then completed a two year postdoctoral training at the affective neuroscience program at Stanford University working with Dr. James Gross. \n\nGal has won the two most prestigious scholarships in Israel (i.e.\, Rothschild fellowship for postdoctoral fellows\; Allon fellowship for outstanding young researchers)\, he received multiple competitive grants (from ISF\, BSF\, National Institute of Psychobiology\, and NIMH)\, he published more than 40 articles in highly prestigious outlets (e.g.\, Annual Review of Clinical Psychology\, Journal of Experimental Psychology: General\; Social Cognitive and Affective Neuroscience\; Personality and Social Psychology Review\; Psychological Science)\, and he served as Associate Editor in the APA flagship journal Emotion. \n\nGal is a licensed clinical psychologist who works with young kids and adults with various emotional problems.\n\nGal will spend a one year sabbatical at the University of Michigan working on various projects with Dr. Ethan Kross\, and teaching graduate and undergraduate seminars in emotion regulation.

SUMMARY:Careers / Jobs:PIX Moving Company Day
DESCRIPTION:The ECRC is hosting a Company Day for PIX Moving on Monday October 8th 2018 from 11:00 AM to 3:00 PM in the Duderstadt Connector. \n\nThe adventure of PIX begins with the exploration and design of self-driving mobile space\, which provides autonomous mobility ability to the users. With leading engineering and creative team members\, PIX pioneers in the practice of disruptive innovations that are engineering-feasible. We are fascinated by exciting ideas and are willing to invest in them to create the next generation of vehicles.\n\nBased in Guiyang China\, PIX Moving (HanKaiSi Intelligent Technology Co.\, Ltd.\, Guizhou) is one of the world's leading self-driving companies. PIX team is dedicated to creating technological breakthroughs in the automobile industry. PIX is now working on autonomous mobility solutions to prospect users around the globe and is meanwhile building the world’s first autonomous mobility service platform with the joint efforts of PIX partners. While many self-driving companies are focused on transporting people from point A to point B\, PIX proposes instead to build cars that bring services to you\, wherever you are\, autonomously. Taco trucks\, coffee machines\, and photo booths will all become autonomously routed and freely moving parts of cities. Using modular self-driving space of PIX\, small vendors can reach much larger audiences than previously possible with traditional brick and mortar storefronts. At the same time\, PIX provides unique and interesting experiences for customers\, responding faster to various customer needs. \n\nWe are looking for creative engineers to help us design and develop brand-new self-driving cars in China (or work remotely in the US). You’ll work closely with other top designers and engineers at PIX. You are self-motivated\, preferring to solving problem creatively. You like challenging problems and you enjoy working in a small team. You are a good collaborator without prejudice or pre-judgement of others. You are passionate about engaging in things that bring values to the world. PIX is developing product that is one of a kind\, so correspondingly\, you are energetic\, resilient\, and a great learner\, and you’re able to make wise decisions quickly with limited information. More importantly\, you are not satisfied with the status quo and you wants a platform where you can give full play to your talents\, hoping that your contribution will change the lifestyle of many people.\n\nStop by this event to speak with us and learn more about opportunities with PIX Moving! Stickers and badges are available at the table. Don’t forget to bring your resume. Looking forward to meeting you soon

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Ford Security Seminar: What Makes a Jihadist Text Popular?
DESCRIPTION:This is not a public event\n\nJihadist terrorism is a pressing issue for policy–makers and social scientists. Using data from 50 million page views on a jihadist website\, we investigate what makes some jihadist writings more popular than others\, and whether killing and capturing jihadist thinkers is an effective policy tool for reducing the popularity of their ideas. We find that the identity of the author is the strongest predictor of baseline popularity among jihadist readers. When authors are killed\, the popularity of their documents temporarily increases\, but we find no long–term effect. Fears that counterterrorism efforts will inadvertently repopularize jihadists' ideas are overblown\, but counterterrorism efforts do not appear to make jihadists' ideas less popular either.\n\nRichard Nielsen is an Associate Professor of Political Science at MIT. He completed his PhD (Government) and AM (Statistics) at Harvard University\, and holds a BA from Brigham Young University. His forthcoming book\, Deadly Clerics (Cambridge University Press)\, uses statistical text analysis and fieldwork in Cairo mosques to understand the radicalization of jihadi clerics in the Arab world. Nielsen also writes on international law\, the political economy of human rights\, political violence\, and political methodology. Some of this work is published or forthcoming in The American Journal of Political Science\, International Studies Quarterly\, Political Analysis\, and Sociological Methods and Research. In 2017-2019 he is an Andrew Carnegie fellow\, and his work has previously been supported by the National Science Foundation\, the Harvard Academy for International and Area Studies\, and the Belfer Center for Science and International Affairs.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Social\, Behavioral & Experimental Economics (SBEE): The Dynamics of Discrimination: Theory and Evidence
DESCRIPTION:Abstract:\n\nWe model the dynamics of discrimination and show how its evolution can identify the underlying source. We test these theoretical predictions in a field experiment on a large online platform where users post content that is evaluated by other users on the platform. We assign posts to accounts that exogenously vary by gender and evaluation histories. With no prior evaluations\, women face significant discrimination. However\, following a sequence of positive evaluations\, the direction of discrimination reverses: women’s posts are favored over men’s. Interpreting these results through the lens of our model\, this dynamic reversal implies discrimination driven by biased beliefs.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:CMENAS Colloquium Series. How Islam Was Studied: From Dynasties and Civilization to Anthropology\, Gender\, and the Internet
DESCRIPTION:-- \nThe 2018 CMENAS Colloquium Series theme\, “The Process of Discovery: How Scholars Write Books Today” will discuss how in popular media\, writing is fantastically presented as a process whereby inspiration—a muse— comes to the writer (or fails to). In this fantasy\, writers type fiendishly or crumple up one sheet after another. The reality is at once more complicated and humble than this. Come discover how scholars discover. The colloquium series will feature presentations from CMENAS faculty on their recent book projects and will explore the research process from start to finish. \n--- \n\nLecture Abstract:\nAfter defining the five major components of religion (discourses/teachings\, practices\, communities institutions\, and leaders)\, Professor Knysh will examine the applicability and suitability of this analytic rubrication for the academic study of Islam. He will then address various past and present conceptualizations of Islam and the principal methodological frameworks used by Western scholars and scholars of Muslim background trained in the West to represent Islam and Muslims to various audiences. Professor Knysh emphasizes the critical importance of who\, when and where interprets and articulates the malleable and multi-faceted abstract/construct called “Islam.” He also addresses the impact of new information technologies and cyberspace on the meta-discourses about Islam\, while revisiting the abiding relevance of Marxian and Weberian theories of religion generally and Islam in particular. \n\nSpeaker Bio:\nAlexander Knysh is Professor of Islamic Studies at the University of Michigan and Principal Investigator of a research project on political Islam/Islamism sponsored by the Rectorate of the St. Petersburg State University\, Russia. His academic interests include Islamic mysticism (Sufism)\, Qur’anic studies\, the history of Muslim theological\, philosophical and juridical thought\, and modern Islamic/Islamist movements in comparative perspective. He has numerous academic and instructional publications on these subjects\, including twelve books. Since 2006\, he has served as section editor for “Sufism” on the Editorial Board of the Encyclopedia of Islam\, Third Edition (E.J. Brill\, Leiden and Boston). He is also Executive Editor of the Encyclopedia of Islamic Mysticism and the Handbooks of Islamic Mysticism book series associated with it (E.J. Brill\, Leiden and Boston). Professor Knysh serves on the editorial boards of the following academic journals: Al-Abhath (Beirut)\, Vestnik Sankt Peterburgskogo Universiteta (Saint Petersburg)\, Al-Farabi (Almaty)\, Islamovedenie (Makhachkala\, Russian Federation)\, Islam v sovremennom mire (Moscow)\, and Journal of Sufi Studies (Leiden and Boston).\n\n--- \nIf you are a person with a disability who requires an accommodation to attend this event\, please reach out to us at least 2 weeks in advance of this event. Please be aware that advance notice is necessary as some accommodations may require more time for the university to arrange. Contact: jessmhil@umich.edu.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Navigating stability and metastability in the synthesis of novel functional materials
DESCRIPTION:Despite rapid progress in the computational design of novel functional materials\, the materials discovery pipeline remains bottlenecked by the difficulty of synthesizing predicted compounds in the laboratory. Developing a theoretical foundation for predictive materials synthesis requires a more quantitative understanding of metastable phases\, which often appear as kinetic byproducts during materials formation. By mapping the thermodynamic scale of crystalline metastability\, and calculating relative nucleation rates between competing polymorphs\, we can construct synthesis maps to navigate through the thermodynamic and kinetic energy landscape towards desired material phases. I will showcase several applications of this ab initio framework to predict non-equilibrium crystallization pathways of carbonate minerals and functional manganese oxides in hydrothermal synthesis\, and conclude with thermodynamic strategies for the discovery and synthesis of novel thin-film nitride semiconductors. Mastering metastability will deepen our fundamental understanding of nucleation and crystal growth\, and can expand the search space for functional technological materials beyond equilibrium phases and compositions.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:HEP-Astro Seminar |  Why the Higgs is Light\, Why It Has Standard Model Couplings to Gauge Bosons and Fermions\, and Where There are More Higgses to be Found
DESCRIPTION:Current data from the LHC indicate that the 125 GeV Higgs boson\, H\, is either the single Higgs of the Standard Model or\, to a good approximation\, an \"aligned Higgs\". We propose that His the pseudo-Goldstone dilaton of Gildener and Weinberg. We point out for the first time that this naturally and\, as far as we know\, uniquely accounts for its low mass and its alignment. It further implies the existence of additional Higgs bosons in the vicinity of 200 - 500 GeV. We illustrate our proposal in a version of the two-Higgs-doublet model of Lee and Pilaftsis and we discuss the model's observational consequences at the LHC.\n

SUMMARY:Other:Nitric Oxide Signaling: From Prokaryotes to Humans
DESCRIPTION:                                                                                                                        Nitric oxide (NO) has long been known to be an intermediate in bacterial pathways of denitrification. It is only since the middle to late 1980s that it was found to play a central role in a much broader biology context. For example\, it is now well established that NO acts as a signaling agent in higher organisms. Yet NO is toxic and reactive under biological conditions.  How is the biology carried out by NO controlled? How is NO used and the inherent toxicity avoided?  How do organisms tell the difference between NO and O2? What is the biological output? A molecular perspective on ligand discrimination in hemoproteins has emerged as has a further understanding and predictions about selective ligand sensing and function in biology.                                                                          \n                       \n                                                \n                       \n                                                \n                       \n                                                \n                       \n                                                \n                       \n                                                \n                       \n                                                \n                       \n                        \nMichael Marletta (University of Berkeley)

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:STS Speaker. Alternative Facts and States of Fear: Reality in the Age of Climate Fictions
DESCRIPTION:This talk is concerned with the nature of reality in an age of “alternative facts.” It is a case study situated in the realm of mass market fiction that seeks to examine how postmodern techniques so often associated with STS have been deployed to undermine claims to scientific authority. Specifically\, I look to the work of Harvard MD-turned-author\, Michael Crichton\, and his 2004 novel\, State of Fear. What can Crichton’s particular form of cultural production teach us not only about specific scientific controversies\, but an era now referred to as post-truth and an American president whose dominant political motives are a tangle of profit-making and fear-mongering? My approach does not attempt to purify fact from fiction or provide clarity amidst what Guy Debord called the “society of the spectacle\,” in which representation is preferable to reality\, truth is considered profane\, and only illusion is sacred. Rather\, I will discuss practices and techniques that have contributed to a reinvention of reality and argue that a rigorously feminist STS provides invaluable resources for navigating the present.\n\nBiosketch: Joanna Radin is associate professor of History of Medicine at Yale where she is also affiliated with the Departments of History and of Anthropology as well as the programs in American Studies\; Ethnicity\, Race & Migration\; and Religion & Modernity. Her research examines speculative projects of the post-war life and human sciences. She has particular interests in feminist\, queer\, and indigenous STS and science fiction. She is the author of Life on Ice: A History of New Uses for Cold Blood (Chicago 2017)\, a history of the low-temperature biobank and co-editor\, with Emma Kowal\, of Cyropolitics: Frozen Life in a Melting World (MIT 2017)\, which considers the technics and ethics of freezing across the life and environmental sciences.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:IOE 813 Seminar: Jeff Fessler
DESCRIPTION:Medical imaging systems like X-ray CT and MRI scanners produce raw data that must be processed by inverse problem solvers to yield interpretable images.  The design of the image reconstruction algorithm can greatly affect image quality\, and hence diagnostic accuracy\, affecting patient health and even safety.  This talk will briefly mention summarize some of the health and safety aspects of medical imaging and then focus on how optimization algorithms and machine learning methods can influence image quality.\n\nJoint work with Sai Ravishankar\, Il Yong Chung\, and Raj Nadakuditi\, among others.\n\nJeff Fessler is the William L. Root Professor of EECS at the University of Michigan. He received the BSEE degree from Purdue University in 1985\, the MSEE degree from Stanford University in 1986\, and the M.S. degree in Statistics from Stanford University in 1989. From 1985 to 1988 he was a National Science Foundation Graduate Fellow at Stanford\, where he earned a Ph.D. in electrical engineering in 1990. He has worked at the University of Michigan since then. From 1991 to 1992 he was a Department of Energy Alexander Hollaender Post-Doctoral Fellow in the Division of Nuclear Medicine. From 1993 to 1995 he was an Assistant Professor in Nuclear Medicine and the Bioengineering Program. He is now a Professor in the Departments of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science\, Radiology\, and Biomedical Engineering. He became a Fellow of the IEEE in 2006\, for contributions to the theory and practice of image reconstruction. He received the Francois Erbsmann award for his IPMI93 presentation\, and the Edward Hoffman Medical Imaging Scientist Award in 2013. He has served as an associate editor for IEEE Transactions on Medical Imaging\, the IEEE Signal Processing Letters\, and the IEEE Transactions on Image Processing\, and is currently serving as an associate editor for the IEEE Transactions on Computational Imaging. He has chaired the IEEE T-MI Steering Committee and the ISBI Steering Committee. He was co-chair of the 1997 SPIE conference on Image Reconstruction and Restoration\, technical program co-chair of the 2002 IEEE International Symposium on Biomedical Imaging (ISBI)\, and general chair of ISBI 2007. His research interests are in statistical aspects of imaging problems\, and he has supervised doctoral research in PET\, SPECT\, X-ray CT\, MRI\, and optical imaging problems. \n\nThe seminar series “Providing Better Healthcare through Systems Engineering” is presented by the U-M Center for Healthcare Engineering and Patient Safety (CHEPS):  Our mission is to improve the safety and quality of healthcare delivery through a multi-disciplinary\, systems-engineering approach.\nFor additional information and to be added to the weekly e-mail for the series\, \nplease contact genehkim@umich.edu

SUMMARY:Film Screening:The Eagle and The Condor - From Standing Rock With Love
DESCRIPTION:This film will premiere on Indigenous People’s Day - Monday October 8th - on Free Speech TV and in communities across Turtle Island\, the U.S.\, Canada and Europe. At U-M\, the free screening will take place in the Forum Hall (Palmer Commons). \n\nFilm Description: \nFrom 2016 – 2017 Standing Rock water protection camps located at the heart of Turtle Island became the largest assembly of Indigenous peoples in recent history. Gathered nations confronted big energy’s extreme extraction through the strength of their ceremonies\, histories\, and connections. Despite being met with violence\, many who brought their best intentions to this historic fight continue to expand their love and sovereignty - while they shift our world away from the trauma and isolation of modern days. \n\nThe film is based around prophecy of the Eagle and Condor that originates with nations from the South and features ceremony held at the Dakota Access Pipeline (DAPL) site on Indigenous People’s Day\, October 10th\, 2016. The ancient prophecy predicted the epic Standing Rock water protection actions – and continues to challenge all to identify and unite our gifts and power.

DESCRIPTION:Marcia Polenberg loves animals\, each with its own unique personality\, intelligence and expressive range of emotions. Using terra-cotta sculpture clay\, Polenberg hand builds her ceramic animals\, seemingly bringing them to life.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Celebrating Science & Art
DESCRIPTION:The brilliantly colored images in this exhibit were taken in the course of scientific research\, and are beautiful in their detail\, form and symmetry. For each one\, an accompanying explanation describes its significance. The subjects of the images are cells\, tissues and organs\, from a wide variety of biological sources (plants\, worms\, fruit flies\, fish\, mice and yes\, even human brain). The colors are added by investigators\, to allow them to see the otherwise transparent tissues. By looking at these microscopic images\, you will learn about research into normal embryonic development as well as cutting-edge investigations into diseases such as basal cell carcinoma\, bipolar disease\, epilepsy and cancer.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Hineinu – Here We Are: An LGBTQ+ Jewish Photovoice Exhibit
DESCRIPTION:A same-sex Jewish marriage contract (Ketubah). A sign for gender inclusive bathrooms in a Jewish Community Center. A Christmas tree adorned with rainbow-colored ornaments and a Star of David topper. These are three of the 21 photos-with-narratives that constitute “Hineinu – Here We Are: An LGBTQ+ Jewish Photovoice Exhibit.” Combined with rich\, thought-provoking text\, these photos give insight into the varied experiences of local community members who are both Jewish and queer.\n\n“Photovoice” is the process of putting cameras in the hands of traditionally “voiceless” or marginalized community members to allow them to record\, reflect on\, and share their community’s strengths and concerns. Photovoice participants have the opportunity to capture their current experiences through pictures\, with the goal of sparking dialogue and action related to the themes depicted in the photos.\n\nAs you view this Photovoice exhibit\, we hope that you will consider what it means to be inclusive and welcoming\, and that you will continue to develop an awareness of the diversity of other people’s experiences both within and outside of the Jewish and LGBTQ+ communities.

DESCRIPTION:This group show of jewelry and ornaments includes the work of Roger Martin\, who tackled the subject of a raven by relying on planes and shadow lines to imbue the surfaces of the bird with personality. Another one of the seven artists\, Lorraine Kolasa\, picked up the old fashioned art of tatting\, then cast tiny pieces of her handmade lace into sterling silver jewelry. Michael Nashef\, who spent half his life in war-torn Lebanon\, has created a series of innovative vessels and brooches. Other artists included in this exhibit are Kim Cridler\, Roger Smith\, Renee Zettle-Sterling and Ruth Taubman\, whose unmatched exuberance of color and 36 years of work and business innovation\, place her jewelry firmly on the national stage.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Organic Fiction: Acrylic on Canvas
DESCRIPTION:Hava Gurevich’s colorful abstractions feature botanical\, aquatic and microscopic motifs as she explores repeating patterns in nature. Blending images from the real world and her imagination\, Organic Fiction celebrates nature in all its beauty\, chaos and complexity. Hava Gurevich received a BFA in photography from U-M and an MFA in painting from Illinois State University. Her creative process begins with photographs and sketches of details in nature\, such as tree branches\, ice patterns\, twisted vines\, and delicate spring blossoms. These drawings contribute to her personal vocabulary of shapes and gestures\, and she often digitally combines them with older paintings to become starting points of new works.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:David Cope: Player of Invisible Keys
DESCRIPTION:Celebrate the work of Michigan poet David Cope\, once described by Allen Ginsberg as one of the \"leading lights of the next generation.\" This exhibit draws on drafts\, proofs\, and other documents from Cope's archive to offer a glimpse into his poetic and editorial process.\n\nWorking most often in the Objectivist tradition of Charles Reznikoff\, Carl Rakosi\, and George Oppen\, David Cope has a particular gift for descriptive detail and for juxtaposing the the intimacy of daily life with commentary on the arc of current events and the particularity of personal relationships with the universality of human experience. He received the Pushcart Prize for “The Crash” in 1977 and an award in literature from the American Academy and Institute of Arts and Letters for On The Bridge (1986). Additionally\, for more than forty years\, Cope has edited and published a small press literary magazine\, The Big Scream\, providing a venue for more than 200 poets\, including both big names names and younger\, lesser-known poets. Earlier this year\, Ghost Pony Press released Cope’s eighth poetry collection: The Invisible Keys: New and Selected Poems.\n\nOn view during Special Collections Research Center hours: Monday-Friday\, 8:30 a.m. to 5:00 p.m.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Exhibition | Urban Biographies\, Ancient and Modern
DESCRIPTION:Human beings are political animals\, said the Greek philosopher Aristotle: animals that live in the “polis\,” the Greek word for city. Over two thousand years later\, we are still political animals\, and the study of ancient cities is of abiding interest\, for our perceptions of the urban centers of the past continue to exert a powerful hold on modern culture. \n\nThis exhibition showcases three Classical cities where the University of Michigan sponsors field projects: Gabii in Italy\, Olynthos in Greece\, and Notion in Turkey. The archaeologists excavating these cities\, in collaboration with students and faculty from U-M’s Taubman College of Architecture and Urban Planning\, are comparing their findings to projects of urban rebuilding in contemporary Detroit\, asking two main questions: How do contemporary archaeological methods facilitate the study of both ancient and modern cities? And how can the study of the past help illuminate the challenges and opportunities facing Detroit today? \n\nLead Curator: Christopher Ratté\nCo-Curators: Lisa Nevett\, Nicola Terrenato\, and Kathy Velikov\n\nVisit the exhibition website: http://exhibitions.kelsey.lsa.umich.edu/urban-biographies

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Abstraction\, Color\, and Politics in the Early 1970s
DESCRIPTION:Can abstract art be about politics? In the early 1970s\, that question was hotly debated as artists\, critics\, and the public grappled with the relationship between art\, politics\, race\, and feminism. Many of those debates centered on bringing to light the roles that gender and race played in how “great modern art” was defined and assessed\, and on employing art to advance civil rights. Within this discourse\, abstraction had an especially fraught role. To many\, the decision by women artists and artists of color  to make abstract art seemed to represent a retreat from politics and protest: an abnegation of a commitment to civil rights and feminism. \"Abstraction\, Color\, and Politics in the Early 1970s\" presents large-scale work by four leading American artists—Helen Frankenthaler\, Sam Gilliam\, Al Loving\, and Louise Nevelson—who chose abstraction as a means of expression within the intense political climate of the early 1970s.\n\nLead support for \"Abstraction\, Color\, and Politics in the Early 1970s\" is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost\, Michigan Medicine\, the Richard and Rosann Noel Endowment Fund\, the Herbert W. and Susan L. Johe Endowment\, and the University of Michigan Institute for Research on Women and Gender. Additional generous support is provided by the Robert and Janet Miller Fund and the University of Michigan Department of Political Science.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Beyond Borders: Global Africa
DESCRIPTION:More than ever in the era of globalization\, ideas traverse geographic\, generational\, and cultural boundaries\, even as national borders seem to be closing. 'Beyond Borders: Global Africa' reflects on this moment by considering how Africa and its artists have been at the center of complex histories of encounter and exchange for centuries. Bringing together a dazzling array of works made in Africa\, Europe\, and the United States from the nineteenth to twenty-first century\, the exhibition demonstrates the international scope and reach of art from Africa and the African diaspora. It also explores issues such as slavery\, colonization\, migration\, racism\, and identity at play in the objects and their histories. Highlights include paintings\, photographs\, sculpture\, and installations by Kudzanai Chiurai\, Omar Victor Diop\, Wangechi Mutu\, and Serge Alain Nitegeka. The exhibition will be accompanied by a fully-illustrated publication\, the tenth in the UMMA Books series.\n\nLead support for 'Beyond Borders: Global Africa' is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost\, Michigan Medicine\, the National Endowment for the Arts\, and the University of Michigan Office of Research\, African Studies Center\, and Department of Afroamerican and African Studies. Additional generous support is provided by the University of Michigan CEW Frances and Sydney Lewis Visiting Leaders Fund and Susan Ullrich.

SUMMARY:Meeting:Diversity Committee Fall Symposium
DESCRIPTION:The Diversity Committee invites you to a presentation of four of our five Summer Award Grantees\, on Tuesday Oct 9th\, at 11am in Angell Hall 3222\, as the Diversity Committee Fall Symposium. \nCome and find out what they did with their Summer Grants – and find out how you can apply yourself for one of these grants.\n\nWe are also looking for two PhD and two undergraduate students to join our Diversity Committee (meet once a month\, read exciting project applications like the ones below\, think about how to foster diversity agendas for our department\, develop your leadership skills). Please contact Petra Kuppers at petra@umich.edu if you are interested/want to nominate someone!\n\n\nAnnika Pattenaude\nAbout me:\nI am 4th year PhD in L&L. I'm a California native\, and I love to swim. I study medieval literature\, and my dissertation examines (or will examine) the intersection of aesthetics and affect in late medieval poetry. \n\nAbout my project:\nThis summer\, under the mentorship of Hadji Bakara\, I designed a literature course on human rights in the premodern world. To conduct this project\, I compiled a bibliography of sources about rights in the classical\, medieval\, and early modern periods\, and then organized select texts by theme: e.g.\, \"Destabilizing the Human\" and \"Refugees\, Exiles\, and Aliens.\" Overall\, a main goal of this course is to map a long history of human rights in order to discover how people made claims to or were restricted from rights in the premodern world.\n\nElinam  Agbo\nAbout me:\nI am a second year MFA candidate (fiction) in the Helen Zell Writers' Program. I was born in Ghana and moved to the U.S. when I was ten. I grew up in Kansas\, and I love Chicago (where I went to college). \n\nAbout my project:\nThis summer\, I wrote the first draft of a Young Adult novel\, exploring black girlhood with a focus on my protagonist's relationship with her mother and her hair. The story was set in a surreal world where bureaucracy meets fairy tale characters\, a world adjacent to ours but not quite ours. I shifted between two perspectives\, one in prose and the other in verse\, and I worked with my faculty mentor\, Laura Kasischke\, who is well versed in fiction and poetry. \n\n\nAkosua Afiriyie-Hwedie (presentation via hand-out)\nAbout me:\nI'm a 2nd year MFA in poetry. I’m Zambian-Ghanaian and was raised in Botswana. My work is a journey in navigating home as a multitude of places and as more than just a physical space. Home can be many things\, a mother\, a language\, a word etc.\n\nAbout my project:\nMy mentor for the summer was Professor Ruth Behar (a cultural anthropologist who specializes in concepts of home\, diaspora\, displacement\, immigration\, travel\, ethnographic research and methods specific to native anthropological research). With the help of Professor Behar and the Diversity Committee grant\, I visited historic sites and interviewed people in both Ghana and Botswana. Thereafter\, I produced a collection of poems which expound upon meanings of home (as physical space and beyond)\, particular to people indigenous to those spaces. \n\nDavid Wade\nAbout me:\nI am a second-year MFA candidate in Fiction from the small rustbelt city of Washington\, PA. My interests include hip hop\, theology\, mixed martial arts\, and speculative fiction. My thesis is a collection of short stories about my hometown and the people who’ve never left.\n\n About my project:\n This summer\, under the mentorship if Van Jordan\, I worked on a poetry collection that examined the idea of “the wake” a as perpetual state of melancholy and subjugation unique to the African-American and global black experience found in Christina Sharpe’s monograph\, In the Wake\, among similar claims by other poets and scholars. The project seeks to challenge the narrative that the black experience is evenly transmuted across generation in perpetuity with no foreseeable expiration date.\n\n\nRackham Diversity Allies Program Spring/Summer Mentorship Grants\nThe Spring/Summer Mentorship Grants are for second\, third\, and fourth-year PhD L&L\, JPEE\, and E&WS students and first-year MFA students\, and applications are due late in the Winter Semester.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Have We Met? Dialogues on Memory and Desire
DESCRIPTION:Have We Met: Dialogues on Memory and Desire draws inspiration from Ann Arbor’s legacy of social movements (Anti-War Movement\, Civil Rights Movements) and experimental art practices (The Once Group) from the late-1950s to the 1970s as its point of departure. It brings together archival materials and reproductions from the University of Michigan’s Labadie Collection and the Bentley Library in conjunction with radical artworks by diverse\, multi-generational artists and designers whose works are deeply influenced by the ideas of freedom and self-determination\; re-writing the canonical accounts of history\; and building contemporary culture and solidarity through collective action.\n\nAt a time when the idea of citizenship in the United States is being deeply challenged and redefined through horrific occurrences of gun violence and police brutality towards racialized and queer civilians and refugees\, this exhibition asks what role art institutions can play in building inclusive and vibrant creative spaces the 21st Century. Have We Met? Dialogues on Memory and Desire retraces and learns from models of collectivity and organizing mobilized by artists\, designers\, and cultural producers in the past and present as a lens to understand the contemporary moment and re-imagine the future.  It explores the complex relationships and at times overlapping and contested concerns between contemporary art\, design\, and social justice that continually influence and inform one another.\n\nArtists: Rudolf Baranik\, Stephanie Dinkins\, Emory Douglas\, Brendan Fernandes\, Chitra Ganesh\, Carole Harris\, Maren Hassinger\, Al Loving\, Josh MacPhee\, Native Art Department International\, Michele Oka Doner\, Yoko Ono\, Kameelah Janan Rasheed\, Martha Rosler\, Buster Simpson\, Gregory Sholette\, Leni Sinclair\, Stephanie Syjuco\, Graem Whyte\, and Zafos Xagoraris. \n\nCurated by Srimoyee Mitra.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:New at UMMA: Life Magazine 1947 Homecoming Photographs
DESCRIPTION:In October 1947\, just two years after the end of World War II\, the popular weekly news magazine LIFE sent staff photographers Lisa Larsen and Ralph Morse to cover homecoming weekend at the University of Michigan. The subsequent article\, “Michigan Homecoming\,” which brought national attention to UM’s athletic program\, featured a seven-page spread with photographs of the campus during a much-anticipated football game between the number-one ranked Michigan Wolverines and the University of Minnesota’s Golden Gophers. This installation provides a unique opportunity to view twenty-one images of that weekend\, many of which were not published in the original article\, recently donated to UMMA by John and Susan Edwards Harvith. Considered alongside the article\, these photographs of fervent fans\, strolling couples\, alumni making their annual pilgrimage\, and the game itself present LIFE magazine’s view of a giddy post-war public enjoying a return to American pastimes.\n\nThese photographs were recently gifted to UMMA by John (AB '69\, JD '73) and Susan (MMP '73) Harvith.

SUMMARY:Fair / Festival:impactXchange–VOTING
DESCRIPTION:North Campus DEI Collaborative–College of Engineering\, Stamps School of Art & Design\, Duderstadt Center\, School of Music\, Theater and Dance\, Taubman College of Architecture and Urban Planning\, Rackham Student Government\n\nJoin the North Campus DEI Collaborative impactXchange–College of Engineering\, Stamps School of Art & Design\, Duderstadt Center\, School of Music\, Theater and Dance\, Taubman College of Architecture and Urban Planning and the Rackham Student Government in celebration of Diversity Week 2018.\n\nThe all day celebration aims to put students in the driver’s seat of decision making. We will explore the topic of VOTING and how voting and not voting impacts students and their peers (students will be able to register to vote too!). Students will learn what they can do in their communities to create change (regardless if they can vote or not). Live performances\, exhibition posters on voting\, workshops\, food\, and entertainment will make this event one that must not be missed.\n\nWhen: Tuesday\, October 9\, 2018\nWhere: The Grove and Duderstadt Center\nTime: 11:30am-1:00pm\nSpecial Guest: Ruby Sales–Building a Vibrant Youth Culture at 6:30pm in the new Taubman College Commons.\nLight refreshments will be served.\n\nRuby Nell Sales looks at her work as a calling rather than a career. She answered the call to social justice as a teenager at Tuskegee Institute where she joined the Student Nonviolent Coordinating Committee (SNCC) and worked on voter registration in Lowndes County\, Alabama. Sales has made the struggle for racial justice one of the centerpieces of her work through the SpiritHouse Project. Recognizing a need to nurture the hope that still resides in young people as well as to revive an intergenerational community and human compassion\, in 2016 the SpiritHouse Project introduced Hope Zones.™ They are alternative learning spaces designed to strengthen the hope\, courage\, reason\, and will of young people to individually and collectively stand up for themselves with dignity\, clarity and nonviolent persistence. According to the Harvard Gazette\, Ruby spoke about the fight for racial equality in the U.S. and shared\, “Even in the face of challenges\, there are reasons for hope. Freedom must be seen as a constant struggle. We don’t have to give in to despair.”

SUMMARY:Presentation:Elliott S. Valenstein Lecture - Biopsychology Colloquium
DESCRIPTION:Title:  We live in different taste worlds: Supertasters and common pathologies\n\nI grew up in a small prairie town in South Dakota in an era when women in science were a curiosity.  Maybe this had something to do with my early interest in differences in how we perceive the world.  In taste\, there are genetic differences as well as common pathologies that affect the intensities of taste sensations.  Individuals we called “supertasters” experience taste sensations that are more than twice as intense as the taste experiences of others.  Supertasting affects dietary choices that affect health.   Common pathologies (middle ear infections\, tonsillectomies) can damage taste.  Taste damage can produce some unexpected effects since there are inhibitory connections among the central projections of both taste nerves and nerves mediating other oral sensations (touch\, pain\, retronasal olfaction).  Thus damage to taste can actually intensify some oral sensations when inhibitory connections are abolished.  Damage to taste can also produce phantoms: sensations in the absence of obvious stimulation.  Most recently my lab is collaborating with horticultural scientists to identify volatiles that can affect taste messages centrally.  These volatiles have practical benefits (e.g.\, enhancing sweet and salty tastes) as well as clinical benefits.  We can use some volatiles to bypass peripheral taste damage and restore some normal taste sensations to patients.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:LRCCS Noon Lecture Series | Plato\, Through Confucian Eyes
DESCRIPTION:While many published studies compare ancient Greek and Chinese philosophy\, such studies usually start by identifying some set of ideas in the Greek texts\, and then argue that one can find the same or similar ideas on the Chinese side. In this talk\, Professor Hutton reverses that direction of comparison and use Chinese ideas—and in particular early Confucian views—as a lens to re-examine Greek philosophy\, starting with Plato. Through this method\, he aims to show how Confucian perspectives can unearth new interpretive insights about Western philosophical texts\, and how this process can also aid us in thinking more deeply about the Confucian views themselves. \n    \nEric L. Hutton is Associate Professor of Philosophy at the University of Utah in Salt Lake City\, where he has been teaching since 2002. His research focuses on early Confucianism and comparative studies of ancient Greek and Chinese philosophy\, especially on the topic of ethics. His major publications include a translation\, \"Xunzi: The Complete Text\" (Princeton University Press\, 2014)\, and an edited volume\, the \"Dao Companion to the Philosophy of Xunzi\" (Springer\, 2016). He is also co-editor (with Justin Tiwald) of the new translation series \"Oxford Chinese Thought.\"\n\nIf you are a person with a disability who requires an accommodation to attend this event\, please reach out to us at least 2 weeks in advance of this event.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:FellowSpeak: \"Eating Cheese in the Carolingian Empire\"
DESCRIPTION:A 30 min. talk by Noah Blan\, Institute for the Humanities 2018-19 postdoctoral research fellow\, followed by Q & A.\n\nOn January 13\, 829 CE\, the Carolingian emperor\, Louis the Pious\, along with his eldest son and co-ruler Lothar I\, issued a charter that confirmed provisions claimed by the monks of Saint-Germain-des-Prés\, a large and prosperous Parisian abbey. Among the supplies demanded of the villages and common households that owed them goods and services\, the monks ordered more than 8\,000 pounds of cheese\, an astonishing request given the constraints of energy and labor in a preindustrial\, organic economy. Following the production of this cheese—from small dairy farms to its consumption at elite tables—reveals how early medieval people organized land and limited resources to produce large quantities of food. This talk demarginalizes the peasants and animals whose exploitation sustained aristocratic appetites and puts them at the center of an intricate and precarious food network. In short\, it examines how something as simple as eating cheese was an act that nourished a vast and complex empire.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:It’s All Relational: Indigenous Video Game as Storytelling Praxis
DESCRIPTION:Wao Kanaka\nSkins 6.0/He Au Hou 2 Game Still (courtesy of author)\n\nEvent Information\nDate & Time\nOctober 9\, 2018 - 12:30pm to 2:00pm\nLocation\nHatcher Graduate Library\, Gallery Lab\nLocation Information\nEvent Type\nTalk\nThis presentation is an exploration of the intersections of video game building\, meaningful learning\, Indigenous and Western cultures through relation-oriented ontologies - rather than aspect- or object- oriented ones. From the tech that is used to the land and waters the event is hosted on - these connections matter\, weaving networks of relations across digital and physical heterotopic borders.\n\nFor three weeks in the Summer of 2017 and 2018\, a group of primarily Indigenous students from diverse backgrounds and levels of experience came together to create a video game based on Hawaiian mo’olelo or storytelling.The Skins 5.0 and 6.0 workshops resulted from the collaboration of multiple organizations including The Initiative for Indigenous Futures (IIF)\, Kanaeokana\, and Aboriginal Territories in Cyberspace. These groups contributed funding\, curriculum\, educators and enthusiasm to provide the physical and mental space necessary for the creation of these relationship networks.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:DAAS Africa Workshop with Jacqueline-Bethel Bougoue (Baylor University)
DESCRIPTION:JACQUELINE-BETHEL MOUGOUÉ is an interdisciplinary feminist scholar who is particularly interested in the gendering of identities in state politics\, body politics\, and religious politics in Cameroon. Currently\, she is an assistant professor of history at Baylor University. Her first book\, Gender\, Separatist Politics and Embodied Nationalism in Cameroon is forthcoming with University of Michigan Press in 2019. Using oral interviews and archival records\, such as Cameroon’s first cooking book and women’s advice columns\, the book examines issues related to cookery\, gossiping\, sagacious female politicians\, “sluggish” women who fail to attend the meetings of women’s organizations\,  and unruly housewives known as “women extremists\,” to illuminate how issues of ideal womanhood shaped the Anglophone Cameroonian nationalist movement in the first decade of independence.  The book uses the concept of embodied nationalism to illustrate how political elites and formally educated urbanites implied that women’s everyday patterns of behavior and comportment—the clothes that women wore\, the foods they cooked\, their abstention from gossip\, and their adherence to appropriate marital behavior in public spaces—might make a suitable Anglophone Cameroonian persona physically conspicuous on the local\, national\, and international stage. By drawing upon history\, political science\, gender studies\, and feminist epistemologies\, Mougoué demonstrates how preserving conservative ideal Anglophone womanhood\, cultural values\, and political identity came to be seen as the lynchpin of Anglophone unity in English-speaking towns in Cameroon during the 1960s and early 1970s. Mougoué is currently finalizing research on her second book on the history of the Bahá’í Faith and masculine identities in English-Speaking Cameroon from the 1950s to the 1980s.\n\nMougoué’s scholarly articles have appeared in Gender & History\, Journal of West African History\, and Feminist Africa. She has forthcoming articles in Meridians: Feminism\, Race\, Transnationalism and African Studies Review. In addition\, she has a forthcoming chapter on gender\, leisure\, and sports in Cameroon in Everyday Life on the African Continent: Fun\, Leisure\, and Expressivity (Ohio University Press). Mougoué is also a guest editor for a forthcoming topical forum\, or “issue\,” in African Studies Review (“Bodily Practices and Aesthetic Rituals in 20th Century Africa”). Her research has also appeared in academic blogs including African Studies Association News and Africa is a Country.\n\nMougoué has been a visiting scholar at the University of Buea (Cameroon) and a fellow at Northwestern University (United States). Currently\, Mougoué is Co-Convenor of African Studies Association (ASA) Women’s Caucus\, Advisory Member of ASA North American Scholars on Cameroon Association\, Conference Liaison for Coordinating Council for Women in History (CCWH) and a member of the CCWH  Mentorship Program Committee. Please click here for a CCWH brochure.\n\nMougoué has been invited to share her research at various academic institutions including Yale University (United States)\,  Northwestern University (United States)\, Sidi Mohamed Ben Abdellah University (Morocco)\, University of Leuven (Belgium)\, and Paris Diderot University (France). See the following for additional information on upcoming/past plenary talks.\n\nMougoué received her M.A. and Ph.D. in history from Purdue University. She holds an additional degree from Purdue\, a Graduate Certificate in Women’s\, Gender\, & Sexuality Studies (WGSS) from the WGSS Program. Mougoué’s hobbies include long-distance running (her favorite runs were on Mount Cameroon and in Hawaii\, the big island)\, traveling\, photography\, painting\, and writing poetry and short stories.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Emory Upton: Civil War Hero and Army Reformer
DESCRIPTION:Dr. David J. Fitzpatrick is a professor of history at Washtenaw Community College.  His research focuses on military policy and on civil-military relations in the United States during the post-Civil War era.  His most recent work is Emory Upton:  Misunderstood Reformer (Oklahoma University Press\, 2017).  Upton is well known for his exploits at Rappahannock Station (1863)\, at Spotsylvania (1864) and on Wilson’s Cavalry Raid (1865) during the Civil War\, but he is less well known for his post-war efforts to reform the United States Army.  Those efforts failed in his lifetime (he committed suicide in 1881)\, but they came to fruition with the Root Reforms of the early 20th Century.  Dr. Fitzpatrick is also the author of several journal articles and published essays.

Author portraits migrated from the interior frontispiece to the rear flaps and back covers of dust jackets. At this same time--when Jim Crow segregation reached its repressive heights--African American novels\, poetry\, drama\, and prose non-fiction became prize-winning and best-selling books in the mainstream marketplace. Though they may strike us now as staid\, kitsch\, or even banal photographs\, African American author portraits from the 1940s and 1950s bristle with a fusion of visual grammars: racial uplift image-making meets the Hollywood glam shot and noir chiaroscuro. My talk explores the paradoxes this image-archive presents. How should we understand the violent restriction of Black bodies in social space\, on the one hand\, compared to the widespread circulation of African American writers’ exuberant\, boldly styled books\, on the other? What cultural work did dust jackets\, author portraits\, and their design perform for mid-century Black writing--to what ends\, with what consequences\, for what reading publics? \n\nDrawing on history of the book studies\, cultural histories of post-WWII photography\, theories of authorship\, celebrity\, and performance\, and my own on-going efforts to archive first edition dust jackets\, I argue that the paratextual placement of author portraits require us to reconceive African American literature’s aesthetic imperatives and social contract at mid-century. Ralph Ellison's Invisible Man (1952) and Gwendolyn Brooks' Annie Allen (1949) serve as my exemplars\, because those works’ famous aesthetic difficulties\, together with Ellison's and Brooks' portraits on the books’ dust jackets\, set forth the signal development that distinguishes mid-century African American authorship: namely\, the turn away from writing as indexical of Black personhood to the practice of writing as expressive of Black pluralities\, or personae. Put another way\, by foregrounding alterity rather than authenticity as the threshold where readers meet and interpret Black literature as works of art\, the dust jacket portraits of Ellison and Brooks enact a cultural politics of their own. Not only do they archive the vitality and variety of Black writing at mid-century. Their fragility and mere survival as material artifacts remind us how precarious the history of Black writing and its writers can be.\n\n\nJacqueline Goldsby is Professor of English\, African American Studies\, and American Studies at Yale University. She currently chairs Yale’s Department of African American Studies. \n\nShe is the author of the prizewinning A Spectacular Secret: Lynching in American Life and Literature (University of Chicago Press\, 2006) and other articles about African American literature and book history during the long century of Jim Crow segregation\, from 1865-1965. In 2015\, she edited the Norton Critical Edition of James Weldon Johnson’s 1912 novel\, The Autobiography of an Ex-Colored Man. And she’s currently at work finishing The Art of Being Difficult: African American Literary Culture of the 1940s and 1950s.\n\nThe research required to launch The Art of Being Difficult led Goldsby to co-design and direct \"Mapping the Stacks: A Guide to Black Chicago's Hidden Archives.\" She managed that project from 2005-10\, while she taught at the University of Chicago. “Mapping the Stacks” helped transform the practice of archival recovery and description in Chicago and across the U.S\, as the project became the model for the Council on Library and Information Resources’ $27.5 million grant program\, “Cataloguing Hidden Collections and Archives” (2008-14). Her work in library-archival recovery and knowledge-organization continues: she’s co-directing the Black Bibliography Project with Meredith McGill of Rutgers. Goldsby and McGill are forging national partnerships with librarians\, curators\, cataloguers and history of the book scholars\, to revive (and transform) descriptive bibliography for Black print culture materials.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Nandini Ananth: Charge Transfer Dynamics\, Excited State Energetics\, and Organic Photovoltaics
DESCRIPTION:Designing molecular materials for use as organic photovoltaics\, molecular electronics\, and photocatalysts is a multifaceted challenge requiring a detailed understanding of both the excited state energetics and the dynamics of charge and energy transfer. We address the dynamic challenge by developing new methods based on the path integral formulation of quantum mechanics that are uniquely suited to the simulation of photo-initiated excited state dynamics in the condensed phase. We then tackle the characterization of the excited state manifold in molecular systems using a combination of high-level electronic structure methods to accurately calculate excited state energies\, normal mode analysis to quantify vibronic couplings\, and novel orbital analyses to uncover structure-spectrum correlations.\nIn this talk\, we focus on one target application: designing chromophores that exhibit ultrafast Singlet Fission (SF)\, a phenomenon that has the potential to significantly increase organic solar cell efficiency. We investigate SF in non-bonded and covalently bonded pentacene dimers: we uncover two distinct mechanistic pathways for ultrafast SF and we identify molecular geometries and bonding motifs that can be modified to enhance efficiency in each case. Finally\, we combine the insights obtained from our theoretical investigations to generate a priori design principles for next-generation SF chromophores\, and working with experimental collaborators\, we verify them.\n\nNandini Ananth is an associate professor in the department of Chemistry and Chemical Biology at Cornell University. She received her bachelor's degree in Chemistry from Stella Maris College in Chennai\, India\, and a Masters in chemistry from the Indian Institute of Technology Madras.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:The Concept of a Universal Humanity\, Social Justice and National Individuality in Modern Jewish Thought
DESCRIPTION:One of the major themes of modern Jewish thought is the ever-changing relationship between the identity of Jews as a group and the concept of a universal humanity. This lecture tries to show that one of the major differences between Jewish thought in Israel and the North American diaspora is to be found in the opposing ways in which each understands national and ethnic individuality in connection with the idea of a universal humanity. \n\nThere is both an accessible elevator and gender-neutral restroom on the first and second floor.

SUMMARY:Other:Watching metalloenzymes at work
DESCRIPTION:                        Structures of bioinorganic catalysts can often uniquely rationalize important aspects of chemical and biological reaction control.  My research group studies the structural differences between members of large metalloenzyme superfamilies that share common characteristics but trigger different reactions or use distinct cofactors.  We have initially focused on systems unified in their ability to activate strong C-H\, N-H\, or O-H bonds.  Key objectives include identification of the outcome-dictating structural features of a given catalyst and structure-guided reprogramming for new function.  To achieve these ends\, we determine stable reactant and product complexes\, with an increasing focus on development and implementation of crystallographic approaches to study metalloenzyme reaction intermediates.  These experiments are challenging due to the fleeting and reactive nature of these states but uniquely informative because of the fully contextualized view they provide at critical points in the catalytic cycle.                                                                                                                                                \n                       \n                                                \n                       \n                                                \n                       \n                                                \n                       \n                                                \n                       \n                                                \n                       \n                        \nAmie Boal (The Pennsylvania State University)

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Nam Center Colloquium Series | A Song of Dissent and Democracy: \"March for the Beloved\" and the Politics of Resistance in South Korea
DESCRIPTION:In early 1982\, a group of writers\, labor activists\, and musicians gathered at a remote house in the southwestern city of Kwangju. Under the watchful eye of Chun Doo Hwan’s military dictatorship\, the group clandestinely performed and recorded “March for the Beloved” (Im ŭl wihan haengjingok)\, a song to honor the “soul marriage” of late activists Pak Kisun and Yun Sangwǒn. Born in a city that had yet to recover from a brutal massacre of civilians staged by the military state in May of 1980\, the song moved vastly beyond its original intent of commemorating those massacred and consoling the bereaved. Over the decades to follow\, the song would emerge as the most powerful and widely sung anthem for counter-state movements\, often finding itself at the center of much controversy over how to remember the tumultuous 1980s. This paper examines the bizarre twists and turns the song has undergone since its original inception\, as occasions for thinking about the culture of protest and the politics of memory that shape the legacies of democratization in South Korea. \n    \nSusan Hwang is Assistant Professor of Contemporary Korean Literature and Cultural Studies in the Department of East Asian Languages and Cultures at Indiana University. Her current research focuses on the changing relationship between literature and politics from the 1960s to the present in South Korea.

SUMMARY:Performance:The Western Den
DESCRIPTION:To find a musical soulmate\, someone with whom to explore your innermost feelings\, unite artistic languages\, and craft a shared voice is a daunting\, even mysterious\, undertaking. Some writers spend years searching and never uncover the other half they seek\; for others\, a partnership just flicks on like a light. The origin story of the hauntingly beautiful duo The Western Den is wonderfully curious in just this way: Deni Hlavinka\, an introspective pianist from small-town Virginia\, posted a song idea on a college forum for accepted students. Chris West\, a bright-eyed guitarist from Bermuda\, sent back the song the following day in finished form. Upon meeting in person\, they discovered their musical—and personal—bond was eerily close\; there was never a discussion of forming a band\, never a conscious choice\, it just happened\, fueled by a sheer desire\, a necessity to pursue what felt right.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:HET Brown Bag Seminar | Lessons from the Landscape
DESCRIPTION:I will discuss how the string landscape might inform how we think about low energy effective field theories coupled to gravity. By studying the largest-to-date ensembles of geometries for string compactifications\, we find several striking generic features: large hidden gauge sectors\, regions of strong coupling\, and large numbers of light axions. Understanding these ensembles\, and the landscape as whole\, requires a new set of tools\, both formal and computational\, including new mathematics and tools from data science\, the development of which I will discuss.

DESCRIPTION:The brilliantly colored images in this exhibit were taken in the course of scientific research\, and are beautiful in their detail\, form and symmetry. For each one\, an accompanying explanation describes its significance. The subjects of the images are cells\, tissues and organs\, from a wide variety of biological sources (plants\, worms\, fruit flies\, fish\, mice and yes\, even human brain). The colors are added by investigators\, to allow them to see the otherwise transparent tissues. By looking at these microscopic images\, you will learn about research into normal embryonic development as well as cutting-edge investigations into diseases such as basal cell carcinoma\, bipolar disease\, epilepsy and cancer.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Hineinu – Here We Are: An LGBTQ+ Jewish Photovoice Exhibit
DESCRIPTION:A same-sex Jewish marriage contract (Ketubah). A sign for gender inclusive bathrooms in a Jewish Community Center. A Christmas tree adorned with rainbow-colored ornaments and a Star of David topper. These are three of the 21 photos-with-narratives that constitute “Hineinu – Here We Are: An LGBTQ+ Jewish Photovoice Exhibit.” Combined with rich\, thought-provoking text\, these photos give insight into the varied experiences of local community members who are both Jewish and queer.\n\n“Photovoice” is the process of putting cameras in the hands of traditionally “voiceless” or marginalized community members to allow them to record\, reflect on\, and share their community’s strengths and concerns. Photovoice participants have the opportunity to capture their current experiences through pictures\, with the goal of sparking dialogue and action related to the themes depicted in the photos.\n\nAs you view this Photovoice exhibit\, we hope that you will consider what it means to be inclusive and welcoming\, and that you will continue to develop an awareness of the diversity of other people’s experiences both within and outside of the Jewish and LGBTQ+ communities.

Another one of the seven artists\, Lorraine Kolasa\, picked up the old fashioned art of tatting\, then cast tiny pieces of her handmade lace into sterling silver jewelry. Michael Nashef\, who spent half his life in war-torn Lebanon\, has created a series of innovative vessels and brooches. Other artists included in this exhibit are Kim Cridler\, Roger Smith\, Renee Zettle-Sterling and Ruth Taubman\, whose unmatched exuberance of color and 36 years of work and business innovation\, place her jewelry firmly on the national stage.

DESCRIPTION:Hava Gurevich’s colorful abstractions feature botanical\, aquatic and microscopic motifs as she explores repeating patterns in nature. Blending images from the real world and her imagination\, Organic Fiction celebrates nature in all its beauty\, chaos and complexity. Hava Gurevich received a BFA in photography from U-M and an MFA in painting from Illinois State University. Her creative process begins with photographs and sketches of details in nature\, such as tree branches\, ice patterns\, twisted vines\, and delicate spring blossoms. These drawings contribute to her personal vocabulary of shapes and gestures\, and she often digitally combines them with older paintings to become starting points of new works.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:David Cope: Player of Invisible Keys
DESCRIPTION:Celebrate the work of Michigan poet David Cope\, once described by Allen Ginsberg as one of the \"leading lights of the next generation.\" This exhibit draws on drafts\, proofs\, and other documents from Cope's archive to offer a glimpse into his poetic and editorial process.\n\nWorking most often in the Objectivist tradition of Charles Reznikoff\, Carl Rakosi\, and George Oppen\, David Cope has a particular gift for descriptive detail and for juxtaposing the the intimacy of daily life with commentary on the arc of current events and the particularity of personal relationships with the universality of human experience. He received the Pushcart Prize for “The Crash” in 1977 and an award in literature from the American Academy and Institute of Arts and Letters for On The Bridge (1986).

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Exhibition | Urban Biographies\, Ancient and Modern
DESCRIPTION:Human beings are political animals\, said the Greek philosopher Aristotle: animals that live in the “polis\,” the Greek word for city. Over two thousand years later\, we are still political animals\, and the study of ancient cities is of abiding interest\, for our perceptions of the urban centers of the past continue to exert a powerful hold on modern culture. \n\nThis exhibition showcases three Classical cities where the University of Michigan sponsors field projects: Gabii in Italy\, Olynthos in Greece\, and Notion in Turkey. The archaeologists excavating these cities\, in collaboration with students and faculty from U-M’s Taubman College of Architecture and Urban Planning\, are comparing their findings to projects of urban rebuilding in contemporary Detroit\, asking two main questions: How do contemporary archaeological methods facilitate the study of both ancient and modern cities? And how can the study of the past help illuminate the challenges and opportunities facing Detroit today? \n\nLead Curator: Christopher Ratté\nCo-Curators: Lisa Nevett\, Nicola Terrenato\, and Kathy Velikov\n\nVisit the exhibition website: http://exhibitions.kelsey.lsa.umich.edu/urban-biographies

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Abstraction\, Color\, and Politics in the Early 1970s
DESCRIPTION:Can abstract art be about politics? In the early 1970s\, that question was hotly debated as artists\, critics\, and the public grappled with the relationship between art\, politics\, race\, and feminism. Many of those debates centered on bringing to light the roles that gender and race played in how “great modern art” was defined and assessed\, and on employing art to advance civil rights. Within this discourse\, abstraction had an especially fraught role. To many\, the decision by women artists and artists of color  to make abstract art seemed to represent a retreat from politics and protest: an abnegation of a commitment to civil rights and feminism. \"Abstraction\, Color\, and Politics in the Early 1970s\" presents large-scale work by four leading American artists—Helen Frankenthaler\, Sam Gilliam\, Al Loving\, and Louise Nevelson—who chose abstraction as a means of expression within the intense political climate of the early 1970s.\n\nLead support for \"Abstraction\, Color\, and Politics in the Early 1970s\" is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost\, Michigan Medicine\, the Richard and Rosann Noel Endowment Fund\, the Herbert W. and Susan L. Johe Endowment\, and the University of Michigan Institute for Research on Women and Gender. Additional generous support is provided by the Robert and Janet Miller Fund and the University of Michigan Department of Political Science.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Beyond Borders: Global Africa
DESCRIPTION:More than ever in the era of globalization\, ideas traverse geographic\, generational\, and cultural boundaries\, even as national borders seem to be closing. 'Beyond Borders: Global Africa' reflects on this moment by considering how Africa and its artists have been at the center of complex histories of encounter and exchange for centuries. Bringing together a dazzling array of works made in Africa\, Europe\, and the United States from the nineteenth to twenty-first century\, the exhibition demonstrates the international scope and reach of art from Africa and the African diaspora. It also explores issues such as slavery\, colonization\, migration\, racism\, and identity at play in the objects and their histories. Highlights include paintings\, photographs\, sculpture\, and installations by Kudzanai Chiurai\, Omar Victor Diop\, Wangechi Mutu\, and Serge Alain Nitegeka. The exhibition will be accompanied by a fully-illustrated publication\, the tenth in the UMMA Books series.\n\nLead support for 'Beyond Borders: Global Africa' is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost\, Michigan Medicine\, the National Endowment for the Arts\, and the University of Michigan Office of Research\, African Studies Center\, and Department of Afroamerican and African Studies. Additional generous support is provided by the University of Michigan CEW Frances and Sydney Lewis Visiting Leaders Fund and Susan Ullrich.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Have We Met? Dialogues on Memory and Desire
DESCRIPTION:Have We Met: Dialogues on Memory and Desire draws inspiration from Ann Arbor’s legacy of social movements (Anti-War Movement\, Civil Rights Movements) and experimental art practices (The Once Group) from the late-1950s to the 1970s as its point of departure. It brings together archival materials and reproductions from the University of Michigan’s Labadie Collection and the Bentley Library in conjunction with radical artworks by diverse\, multi-generational artists and designers whose works are deeply influenced by the ideas of freedom and self-determination\; re-writing the canonical accounts of history\; and building contemporary culture and solidarity through collective action.\n\nAt a time when the idea of citizenship in the United States is being deeply challenged and redefined through horrific occurrences of gun violence and police brutality towards racialized and queer civilians and refugees\, this exhibition asks what role art institutions can play in building inclusive and vibrant creative spaces the 21st Century. Have We Met? Dialogues on Memory and Desire retraces and learns from models of collectivity and organizing mobilized by artists\, designers\, and cultural producers in the past and present as a lens to understand the contemporary moment and re-imagine the future.  It explores the complex relationships and at times overlapping and contested concerns between contemporary art\, design\, and social justice that continually influence and inform one another.\n\nArtists: Rudolf Baranik\, Stephanie Dinkins\, Emory Douglas\, Brendan Fernandes\, Chitra Ganesh\, Carole Harris\, Maren Hassinger\, Al Loving\, Josh MacPhee\, Native Art Department International\, Michele Oka Doner\, Yoko Ono\, Kameelah Janan Rasheed\, Martha Rosler\, Buster Simpson\, Gregory Sholette\, Leni Sinclair\, Stephanie Syjuco\, Graem Whyte\, and Zafos Xagoraris. \n\nCurated by Srimoyee Mitra.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:CREES Noon Lecture. Invisible Europe
DESCRIPTION:Essayist and fiction writer Dubravka Ugrešić will take a light tone while talking about the \"invisible people\" of Europe: the migrations that nobody takes into account when talking about the contemporary “migration crisis” and the people with proper papers migrating within the European Union. In another words\, Ugrešić will try to explain what Bulgarians\, for instance\, are doing in the Netherlands and what the Dutch are doing in Bulgaria. \n\nDubravka Ugrešić is one of Europe’s most distinctive novelists and essayists. From her early postmodernist excursions\, to her elegiac reckonings in fiction and essay with the disintegration of her Yugoslav homeland and the fall of the Berlin Wall\, to her more recent writings on popular and literary culture\, Ugrešić’s work is marked by a combination of irony\, polemic\, and compassion. Following degrees in Comparative and Russian Literature\, Ugrešić worked for many years at the University of Zagreb’s Institute for Theory of Literature. When war broke out in Yugoslavia in 1991\, Ugrešić took a firm anti-war stance\, critically dissecting retrograde Croatian and Serbian nationalism. Subjected to prolonged media harassment\, she left Croatia in 1993. Her books have been translated into over twenty languages. She is the winner of several major literary prizes\, including the Austrian State Prize for European Literature 1998\; the Jean Améry Essay Prize for her essayistic work as a whole\, 2012\; and the Vilenica Prize and Neustadt International Prize for Literature\, 2016. \n    \nIf you are a person with a disability who requires an accommodation to attend this event\, please reach out to crees@umich.edu at least 2 weeks in advance of this event. Please be aware that advance notice is necessary as some accommodations may require more time for the university to arrange.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Engaging Tradition in Chinese Contemporary Dance
DESCRIPTION:Since the 1980s\, China’s society and economy have undergone massive change\, and the speed of modernization has continuously increased. This means that the urban-rural divide has required greater attention. In the midst of political\, economic\, and legal modernization\, how can the deep philosophical outlook\, moral and cultural system\, and artistic spirit of China’s long-lasting rural cultural model continue to draw its worldviews and values from tradition? This is a problem not only for those who work in the realm of ideas but also has become a keen focus of attention for dance artists around the globe to explore through new dance creation. This talk will explore the work of several young contemporary dance choreographers based in Beijing who are currently attracting significant attention in China. Specifically\, it will investigate the different ways these young choreographers are engaging with tradition in their work.\n\nMao Cui is Associate Professor of Dance Studies in the Humanities Institute at the Beijing Dance Academy. She holds a PhD in Dance Studies and is a member of the China Dancers Association\, and she has been the recipient of several prestigious national and Beijing-level awards for her research and teaching. In 2016\, she received China’s most competitive national-level social science research grant for her project titled “Twentieth-century American Modern Dance’s Borrowings from Eastern Culture and Their Relationship to its Transformations.”

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Small-kine Budgets and #PhDHustle Life: Level Up Your Praxis\, Progress\, and Play
DESCRIPTION:This informal workshop\, related to the talk It’s All Relational: Indigenous Video Game as Storytelling Praxis. takes up ideas and (re)newed approaches within some Indigenous and decolonial projects: VR\, comic books\, video games\, machine a and more. We’ll share ideas\, approaches\, sources\, and workshop some ways to make your storytelling praxis happen! Come with ideas\, questions\, outlines for stories you need to tell\, want to share\, or don’t quite know what to do with. Play has been included intentionally to combat burn out from community-building\, activism\, and pursuing graduate degrees. Play is a powerful counter to this that can (re)code how we relate to others - human and nonhuman - and ourselves.\n\nThe workshop will be led by Michelle Lee Brown\, who studies Indigenous political praxis and futures through Indigenous designers’ video games\, graphic novels\, and machinima in the Department of Political Science at the University of Hawai'i - Mānoa. She has published peer-reviewed work on the Never Alone video game\, a methods chapter on Indigenous political theory approaches to video game research\, and “Liminal” – a comic in the forthcoming Relational Constellation collection from MSU Press and Native Realities Press. She is currently working on a VR project on water and relationality\, and a comic based on multiple levels of impostor syndrome.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Open Access at a Crossroads When We Really Need a Roundabout
DESCRIPTION:Emergent Research Series events are aimed at better understanding the new ways in which research relies on the work of libraries and information professionals\, and where cutting-edge research pushes past what libraries currently support.\n\nJoin us for a talk with Sarah Beaubien\, Associate Dean of Curriculum\, Research\, and User Services at the Grand Valley State University Libraries.\n\nTalk Description: \nThe open access and OER movements have made great strides in providing alternatives to some of the more traditional models of disseminating scholarly and educational content. Despite this progress\, there is more to be done\, and we find ourselves facing a growing sense of absolutism in the scholarly communications and open communities. This is seen in rhetoric on list-servs\, social media\, and in the disciplinary literature that would have us believe there is only one correct way to successfully provide scholarly communications services\, programs\, and advocacy.\n\nThis precarious assumption ignores important diversity in models\, types of institutions\, and local needs. Moreover\, it can result in a barrier to entry for those not already deeply embedded in the OA movement\, particularly when dialogue turns to blaming\, arguing\, and\, at times\, name-calling. What’s next for the open access movement? Where do we go from here? This talk will challenge some of the assumptions in the OA community\, while looking back on lessons learned\, focusing on meeting researcher needs and developing mission-driven initiatives in order to meaningfully integrate open access and OER into positions across the library. Using examples of successful and unsuccessful initiatives\, we’ll discuss shifting the conversation to a more adaptable\, user-focused approach that authentically meets the needs of our community.\n\nAbout the Speaker: \nSarah Beaubien has an MLS from Indiana University and has worked in academic libraries for 18 years. She is the Associate Dean of Curriculum\, Research\, and User Services at the Grand Valley State University Libraries. Prior to that\, she held positions as Head of Collections & Scholarly Communications\, Scholarly Communications Outreach Coordinator\, Liaison Librarian\, and Instruction Librarian. In addition to open access and OER\, her professional interests include strength-based leadership\, change management\, and user-centered approaches to library services and spaces. Through the evolution of her career path\, she’s come to believe that open access is everyone’s responsibility\, and that it can become part of our work in meaningful\, sustainable ways.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:MIPSE Seminar | Plasma Interactions with Materials\, Metamaterials\, and Photonic Crystals
DESCRIPTION:Plasma interactions with surfaces can significantly affect the local material and the plasma behavior. This talk will cover two topics: (1) the use of advanced surfaces to reduce plasma-material interactions and (2) the plasma functionalization of metamaterials and photonic crystals.  \nThe Plasma Interactions (Pi) facility at UCLA enables testing of plasma-facing surfaces over a wide range of densities\, energies\, and fluence while providing in-situ observation with a wide range of intrusive and non-intrusive diagnostics. Using this facility and computational models\, we have developed and characterized new surfaces that reduce ion induced sputtering and ion-induced secondary electron emission (iSEE) by over 50%. Certain geometries improve trapping of sputterants and electrons for high-energy plasma applications. Similar surfaces provide significant reductions to electron-induced secondary electron emission (eSEE)\, resulting in materials that are plasma-resilient and minimally invasive. The talk will also cover recent discoveries on plasma-functionalized metamaterials and photonic crystals. We have uncovered coupling modes between “spoof” surface plasmons (SSPs) and plasma-based surface plasmon polaritons (SPPs) that could lead to a new class of devices for EM-manipulating metasurfaces including rapidly tuneable filters\, switches\, multiplexers\, and beam steering.\n\nAbout the Speaker: Richard E. Wirz is an Assoc. Professor in the Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering Dept. at the University of California at Los Angeles and holds a joint appointment at NASA JPL. He is Director of the UCLA Plasma & Space Propulsion Laboratory\, where research is focused on the unique partially-ionized plasmas found in space electric propulsion (EP) systems. The lab also develops miniature thrusters and microplasma devices. He is also Director of the UCLA Energy Innovation Laboratory\, which investigates renewable energy applications for solar thermal energy storage and advanced blade designs for large scale wind turbines. He has authored over 150 publications\, two NASA Tech Briefs\, and has several patents. Prof. Wirz is a received the AFOSR Young Investigator Award\, and the Northrop Grumman Excellence in Teaching Award. He received a B.S. in Aerospace Engr. and a B.S. in Ocean Engr. from Virginia Tech\, and his M.S. and Ph.D. in Aeronautics and Applied Sciences from the California Institute of Technology.\n\nThe seminar will be web-simulcast.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:NERS Special Seminar: Concetta Fazio
DESCRIPTION:Title: \"Nuclear Energy Challenges in Europe and the Transmutation Promise\"\n\nAbstract: The role of nuclear energy in Europe will be evolving in the coming decades. In this framework\, the European Commission plays an important role in shaping European energy policies and providing science-based results as generated by the Joint Research Centre (JRC). Indeed\, the JRC has a full directorate dedicated to Nuclear Safety and Security. That directorate has been recently organised into three departments and has issued a new vision and strategy taking also into account societal aspects. One of these departments\, the Nuclear Safety department\, addresses both the reactors and the associated fuels\, and includes nuclear waste transmutation studies. Key research in that area is the development and validation of the fuel elements. The main issues of the minor Actinides bearing fuels and their claddings will be addressed in terms of design requirements\, basic properties assessment and validation. Examples of current research programs and preliminary results will be presented. In this context\, the availability of irradiation facilities to investigate appropriate boundary conditions as defined by the requirements is of paramount importance and the status and future perspectives will be shortly addressed. Finally\, the aspect that is becoming more and more important in the European arena for nuclear energy research is the assessment of societal impacts the outcome of a social study performed on a specific case will also be presented.\n\nBio: Concetta Fazio is deputy Head of the Nuclear Fuel Safety Unit of the European Commission Joint Research Centre. After getting her PhD in Metallurgical Engineering at the Politecnico of Turin\, she has started her research work at the Italian Research Centre ENEA on materials studies for fusion devices\, accelerator driven systems and concentrated solar power. Successively\, she moved to the German Research Institution KIT\, where she was in charge both of the “Partitioning and Transmutation” and “Safety of New Nuclear Systems” programs. She has lead the R&D activities of several international initiatives as for instance the 1MW Liquid Metal Spallation Target (MEGAPIE) international project that has been successfully completed. Successively she has been appointed as initiator\, negotiator and coordinator of the European Joint Program on Nuclear Materials. Its objective was to develop and assess structural and fuel element materials for innovative reactor systems as well as to perform multiscale modelling. At JRC after a first period spent on defining Nuclear Education and Training programs for MSc and PhD students and professional development\, she became scientific assistant to the director of the JRC directorate on nuclear safety and security.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Department Colloquium | Drops\, spiral waves\, and gels: Experiments in non-equilibrium soft matter systems
DESCRIPTION:Soft matter abounds in the natural world.  Moreover\, soft materials are most often not in thermal equilibrium.  I will present a series of vignettes from experiments in my lab that show the remarkable behaviors that emerge in driven soft materials.  I will show how drying drops can be used in forensic analysis\, how drops can be moved with light\, how spiral waves appear in chemical reactions and how they interact with each other\, and how the same chemical reaction can be used to induce mechanical motion of a gel. \n

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:IOE 899 Seminar: Hiba Baroud\, Vanderbilt University
DESCRIPTION:Title: \"Bayesian Methods for Achieving a Sustainable Resilience of Infrastructure and Communities\"\n\nAbstract\nThe protection of critical infrastructure has recently garnered attention with an emphasis on analyzing the risk\, improving the resilience\, and planning for the sustainability of such networks. Critical infrastructure systems are essential to our economy and society\, however\, they frequently face disruptions leading to cascading failures across other systems. One challenge is the ability to make accurate predictions of post-disruption systems behavior that capture time and uncertainty dynamics. This talk will cover Bayesian methods developed to address challenges in risk-based predictive analytics. The methods integrate hierarchical Bayesian models with kernel functions to account for uncertainty\, prior knowledge\, and systems information. In addition\, Bayesian updating of infrastructure network response under multiple hazard scenarios is discussed. Case studies to illustrate these methods include resilience modeling of power and water systems.  \n \nBio\nHiba Baroud is an assistant professor in the Departments of Civil and Environmental Engineering and Earth and Environmental Sciences\, and the Littlejohn Dean’s Faculty Fellow. Her work explores data and decision analytics to model the resilience and sustainability of critical infrastructure systems and communities. Her research applications are focused on smart cities as well as developing countries. Hiba’s prior experience includes a summer research with IBM at the Watson Research Center\, a fellowship at George Washington University Center for International Business Education and Research\, and a visiting position in the Department of Geography and Environmental Engineering at Johns Hopkins University.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Macroeconomics: How Costly Are Markups?
DESCRIPTION:Abstract\n\nWe study the welfare costs of markups in a dynamic model with heterogeneous firms and endogenously variable markups. We find that the welfare costs of markups are large. We decompose the costs of markups into three channels: (i) an aggregate markup that acts like a uniform output tax\, (ii) misallocation of factors of production\, and (iii) an inefficiently low rate of entry. We find that the aggregate markup accounts for about two-thirds of the costs\, misallocation accounts for about one-third\, and the costs due to inefficient entry are negligible. We evaluate simple policies aimed at reducing the costs of markups. Subsidizing entry is not an effective tool in our model: while more competition reduces individual firms’ markups it also reallocates market shares towards larger firms and the net effect is that the aggregate markup hardly changes. Size-dependent policies aimed at reducing concentration can reduce the aggregate markup but have the side-effect of greatly increasing misallocation and reducing aggregate productivity.\n\nhttp://www.virgiliumidrigan.com/uploads/1/3/9/8/13982648/how-costly-markups-09-29-18.pdf

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Donia Human Rights Center Future Leaders in Human Rights Panel
DESCRIPTION:Donia Human Rights Center Future Leaders in Human Rights Panel showcases cutting edge research in human rights conducted by young scholars from various disciplinary backgrounds. It is also a forum for University of Michigan students and scholars interested in human rights issues to come together for interdisciplinary intellectual engagement and to promote innovative and impactful research in human rights. Please RSVP for the panel here: http://myumi.ch/Lqkge \n    \nPanelists: \n    \nCharles Crabtree \nPh.D. Candidate\, Department of Political Science \n\"How Public Opinion Shapes Discriminatory Policing\" \n    \nWhy do the police discriminate against racial minorities? Unlike existing studies\, which focus on explicit or implicit biases among the police\, I argue that racial discrimination depends in a conditional way on the extent of egalitarian views among the police and the public. To test the implications of my theory\, I conduct an innovative survey experiment with American law enforcement administrators and elected officials who oversee the police. As predicted\, elected politicians exhibit less racial discrimination in law enforcement oversight when informed that the public supports racial equality in policing. Contrary to my theory\, though\, police do not react to perceived public demand for egalitarianism. Overall\, my results suggest that public attitudes toward racial equality influence police discrimination only indirectly\, through the institutions that monitor and check their power. My paper contributes to the growing inter-disciplinary literature on the politics of policing by illuminating how public opinion shapes law enforcement outcomes. \n    \nCharles Crabtree is a Ph.D. Candidate in the Department of Political Science at the University of Michigan. His substantive research focuses on various aspects of repression and discrimination in comparative\, American\, and international politics. Methodologically\, he is interested in research design\, experiments\, and using computational tools to better understand the social world. He has published work on these topics in the British Journal of Political Science\, Conflict Management and Peace Science\, Electoral Studies\, International Interactions\, International Studies Quarterly\, the Journal of Experimental Political Science\, the Journal of Peace Research\, Political Research Quarterly\, Political Analysis\, Political Science Research and Methods\, PS: Political Science & Politics\, Research & Politics\, State Politics & Policy Quarterly\, and in several journals in other fields. \n\n---\nVolha (Olga) Chykina \nPostdoctoral Fellow\, Donia Human Rights Center \n“Public Opinion Towards Immigrants and the Educational Experiences of Immigrant Students: Evidence from Europe and the United States” \n    \nIn my work\, I examine whether heightened levels of anti-immigrant sentiment negatively affect the academic outcomes of immigrant youth. More specifically\, I conduct a cross-national examination of the achievement and educational expectations to attain a college degree of first and second-generation immigrant youth in Europe as well as a sub-national examination in the United States. As part of it\, I analyze data from traditional and new immigrant destination countries in Europe. In line with my theory\, I find that an increase in anti-immigrant sentiment is associated with a decrease in student math achievement and student expectations to attain a college degree. I also analyze data from standardized state assessments in California. I find that an increase in anti-immigrant sentiment is associated with a reduction in student scores on these tests. To conduct these analyses\, I create a novel measure of sub-national anti-immigrant sentiment in the United States. Prior studies have largely ignored that students might be influenced by discrimination that occurs outside the schoolhouse. My work addresses this gap in the literature by showing that anti-immigrant sentiment might hamper immigrant educational outcomes. These findings are especially important in light of heightened anti-immigrant sentiment in both Europe and the United States. \n    \nVolha Chykina is a Postdoctoral Fellow at the Donia Human Rights Center at the University of Michigan. Previously\, she was a Ph.D. student in the Educational Theory and Policy program and the Comparative and International Education program at the Pennsylvania State University. Broadly defined\, her research attempts to answer the question of what drives educational inequality in the United States and cross-nationally. A significant portion of this research examines how the educational policies and characteristics of immigrant and minority students’ communities affect their educational outcomes. Her research has been published or is forthcoming in Sociological Science\, the British Journal of Sociology of Education\, Socius\, The Social Science Journal\, Compare: A Journal of Comparative and International Education\, Globalisation\, Societies and Education\, and European Education. She also has a number of working projects that can be found on her website\, http://volhachykina.org/.\n\n---\nTamy Guberek \nPh.D. Candidate\, School of Information \n“Data Dilemmas: The Impact of Communicating Uncertain Numbers in Human Rights Decision-making”\n\nData about crime\, violence and human rights abuses is shrouded with uncertainty. Missing data is high\, rarely randomly distributed\, and ground truth is almost never attainable. How does communicating the limitations of these data impact decision-making? While human rights scholars recommend that advocates transparently communicate data limitations to audiences\, existing studies from cognitive science and science communication disagree about whether doing so is effective\, counterproductive\, or something in between. In this talk\, I will present early results from experimental research where I find strong evidence that the content of conveying uncertainty in data matters. As predicted\, simple caveats have no impact on decisions\, while more informative expressions of uncertainty do. These findings suggest that those who include numeric information about such difficult to observe phenomena should carefully review and consider the impact of their communication strategies.\n\nTamy Guberek is a Ph.D. candidate at the University of Michigan School of Information. Her research focuses on various challenges as data\, archives and technology intersect with advancing human rights and protecting vulnerable communities. She has published in Archival Science\, Statistics Politics and Policy\, and the ACM Human Factors in Computing (CHI) peer-reviewed proceedings\, as well as co-authored various reports with and for human rights practitioners. Prior to graduate school\, Guberek led work in Latin America for the Human Rights Data Analysis Group.\n\n###\nIf you are a person with a disability who requires an accommodation to attend this event\, please reach out to umichhumanrights@umich.edu at least 2 weeks in advance of this event.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Musicology Lecture: Professor Louise K. Stein
DESCRIPTION:Professor Stein's abstract:\n\n“The pervasive influence of popular dance-songs in early modern Hispanic literature and colonial cultures has long been recognized by literary and musical scholars. Hundreds of plays\, stories\, and text booklets for vernacular sacred villancicos call for them. Musicologists have focused primarily on analyzing form and genre\, finding and listing musical sources\, categorizing poetic texts\, and generally describing their broad cultural context. \n\nIn this paper\, I focus on dance-songs that were incorporated into sacred music performed across the Hispanic dominions\, despite their repeated condemnation and prohibition. Their tunes\, rhythms\, and harmonic patterns (made especially clear to us in solo instrumental settings) were distinct and recognizable to all kinds of listeners. They communicated meaning through their very musical materials\, not merely in their sung texts.  \n\nMy recent research has uncovered what might be the key to understanding the paradoxical value of these dance-songs to seventeenth- and early eighteenth-century ecclesiastical authorities. Many describe\, execute\, facilitate or narrate the violation of feminine spaces\, womanly precincts\, female privacy\, and even the female body. My presentation moves from a sacred play by Miguel de Cervantes about a conversion in the Americas to provocative excerpts from sacred villancicos composed in Spain\, colonial New Spain (Mexico)\, and colonial Latin America. The paper will be illustrated with both audio examples and visual evidence presented via slides.”\n\nThe talk is part of the Rackham Interdisciplinary Workshop on \"Religion in the Atlantic World.\"

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:From Domination to Regeneration: Cultivating a New World View in Perilous Times
DESCRIPTION:Note: ASL interpretation will be provided.\n\nThe world seems to be in crisis. The planet is in peril. Oceans are poisoned with human waste. Racism is on the rise. Virulent nationalism has resurfaced across the globe. Religion is shaky and ungrounded. Technology is reaching into our lives instead of enriching it. We seem to have reached an impasse on borders and the role of government. Humans usually develop shared stories to understand moments like these. The current narrative that is shared by religion\, science\, and politics is about the end of it all—the end of the world. But is that what is happening?\n\nAbdul-Matin will address how to confront this time of extraordinary upheaval\, a time in which the failures of our economic and political systems have become clear and the harm is deeply and widely felt. In this moment of upheaval\, of dissolution and awakening\, what is unravelling? What is possible that wasn’t possible before? What is the worldview that we can awaken and cultivate now? What seeds did (y)our ancestors plant for Deep Democracy\, rooted in Beloved Community\, that you could water and cultivate now? \n\nHe will share amazing examples of work happening right now that seeks to nurture whole people and whole communities as we transition away from a world of domination and extraction to one of regeneration\, resilience\, and interdependence.\n\nIbrahim Abdul-Matin is the author of \"Green Deen: What Islam Teaches About Protecting the Planet.\" He has advised two NYC mayors on sustainability policy\, among other issues\, and has also worked with Fortune 500 companies on sustainability and innovation. He has spoken and written for a variety of outlets on diverse topics including Islam and sustainability\, organizing and activism\, and land use process. A former on-air sports contributor to WNYC’s The Takeaway\, Abdul-Matin has appeared on CNN\, Fox News\, and Al Jazeera\, among others. And in 2015 he was named one of the 40 Under 40 Rising Stars in New York City Politics by City & State Magazine.\n\nAbout the Jill S. Harris Memorial Lecture: The Jill S. Harris Memorial Endowment was established in 1985 by Roger and Meredith Harris\, Jill’s parents\, her grandparents Allan and Norma Harris\, and friends. The fund was established in memory of Jill\, a resident of Chicago and undergraduate student at U-M who passed away due to injuries from an auto accident.\n\nThe fund brings a distinguished visitor to campus each year who will appeal to undergraduates interested in the humanities and the arts. The visitor may either be a fellow of the institute for an extended period of time or invited for a few days to present the annual lecture.The visiting fellow will usually interact with undergraduates\, informally and through visits to classes or by other means by which exchanges with undergraduates may be promoted.

SUMMARY:Other:Quantum Coherence in Chemistry: Tackling the Decoherence Challenge
DESCRIPTION:                                                A subject of considerable current interest in Chemistry is the possibility of using non-trivial quantum mechanical effects\, such as coherence and interference\, to enhance molecular function. This possibility is hindered by decoherence processes that prevent matter from fully exhibiting its quantum features. In this talk\, I will summarize our progress understanding decoherence in molecular processes\, and in particular electronic decoherence. I will discuss the basic mechanisms for electronic coherence loss\, methods to quantify the decoherence\, and a general theory of decoherence timescales. The talk with conclude with some novel prospects on the possibility of using lasers to control electronic decoherence in molecules.                         \n                       \n                                                \n                       \n                                                \n                       \n                        \nIgnacio Franco (University of Rochester)

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Animal Friends: Ceramic Sculpture
DESCRIPTION:Marcia Polenberg loves animals\, each with its own unique personality\, intelligence and expressive range of emotions. Using terra-cotta sculpture clay\, Polenberg hand builds her ceramic animals\, seemingly bringing them to life. The face of each one-of-a-kind work of art expresses happiness\, surprise\, mischief\, or a free spirit. Every sculpture is glazed and fired many times\, building up a rich\, textured colored surface. Holding an MFA from the U-M Penny W. Stamps School of Art & Design in ceramics and sculpture and a BA from the City University of New York in painting\, Polenberg widely exhibits her creative works in several media: ceramics\, paint\, graphite and pastel.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Celebrating Science & Art
DESCRIPTION:The brilliantly colored images in this exhibit were taken in the course of scientific research\, and are beautiful in their detail\, form and symmetry. For each one\, an accompanying explanation describes its significance. The subjects of the images are cells\, tissues and organs\, from a wide variety of biological sources (plants\, worms\, fruit flies\, fish\, mice and yes\, even human brain). The colors are added by investigators\, to allow them to see the otherwise transparent tissues. By looking at these microscopic images\, you will learn about research into normal embryonic development as well as cutting-edge investigations into diseases such as basal cell carcinoma\, bipolar disease\, epilepsy and cancer.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Hineinu – Here We Are: An LGBTQ+ Jewish Photovoice Exhibit
DESCRIPTION:A same-sex Jewish marriage contract (Ketubah). A sign for gender inclusive bathrooms in a Jewish Community Center. A Christmas tree adorned with rainbow-colored ornaments and a Star of David topper. These are three of the 21 photos-with-narratives that constitute “Hineinu – Here We Are: An LGBTQ+ Jewish Photovoice Exhibit.” Combined with rich\, thought-provoking text\, these photos give insight into the varied experiences of local community members who are both Jewish and queer.\n\n“Photovoice” is the process of putting cameras in the hands of traditionally “voiceless” or marginalized community members to allow them to record\, reflect on\, and share their community’s strengths and concerns. Photovoice participants have the opportunity to capture their current experiences through pictures\, with the goal of sparking dialogue and action related to the themes depicted in the photos.\n\nAs you view this Photovoice exhibit\, we hope that you will consider what it means to be inclusive and welcoming\, and that you will continue to develop an awareness of the diversity of other people’s experiences both within and outside of the Jewish and LGBTQ+ communities.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Innovations in Ornament
DESCRIPTION:This group show of jewelry and ornaments includes the work of Roger Martin\, who tackled the subject of a raven by relying on planes and shadow lines to imbue the surfaces of the bird with personality. Another one of the seven artists\, Lorraine Kolasa\, picked up the old fashioned art of tatting\, then cast tiny pieces of her handmade lace into sterling silver jewelry. Michael Nashef\, who spent half his life in war-torn Lebanon\, has created a series of innovative vessels and brooches. Other artists included in this exhibit are Kim Cridler\, Roger Smith\, Renee Zettle-Sterling and Ruth Taubman\, whose unmatched exuberance of color and 36 years of work and business innovation\, place her jewelry firmly on the national stage.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Organic Fiction: Acrylic on Canvas
DESCRIPTION:Hava Gurevich’s colorful abstractions feature botanical\, aquatic and microscopic motifs as she explores repeating patterns in nature. Blending images from the real world and her imagination\, Organic Fiction celebrates nature in all its beauty\, chaos and complexity. Hava Gurevich received a BFA in photography from U-M and an MFA in painting from Illinois State University. Her creative process begins with photographs and sketches of details in nature\, such as tree branches\, ice patterns\, twisted vines\, and delicate spring blossoms. These drawings contribute to her personal vocabulary of shapes and gestures\, and she often digitally combines them with older paintings to become starting points of new works.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:David Cope: Player of Invisible Keys
DESCRIPTION:Celebrate the work of Michigan poet David Cope\, once described by Allen Ginsberg as one of the \"leading lights of the next generation.\" This exhibit draws on drafts\, proofs\, and other documents from Cope's archive to offer a glimpse into his poetic and editorial process.\n\nWorking most often in the Objectivist tradition of Charles Reznikoff\, Carl Rakosi\, and George Oppen\, David Cope has a particular gift for descriptive detail and for juxtaposing the the intimacy of daily life with commentary on the arc of current events and the particularity of personal relationships with the universality of human experience. He received the Pushcart Prize for “The Crash” in 1977 and an award in literature from the American Academy and Institute of Arts and Letters for On The Bridge (1986). Additionally\, for more than forty years\, Cope has edited and published a small press literary magazine\, The Big Scream\, providing a venue for more than 200 poets\, including both big names names and younger\, lesser-known poets. Earlier this year\, Ghost Pony Press released Cope’s eighth poetry collection: The Invisible Keys: New and Selected Poems.\n\nOn view during Special Collections Research Center hours: Monday-Friday\, 8:30 a.m. to 5:00 p.m.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:\"Engineering Therapies for Complex Diseases\"
DESCRIPTION:Many diseases lack a clear cause\, making the search for therapies especially challenging. For example\, there is no known cause for more than 80% of the cases of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS)\, and the remaining cases can be caused by mutations in any one of more than twenty genes. It is unlikely that any single therapeutic strategy will work for all these patients. We seek to understand such complex diseases better by gathering a wide variety of omic\, clinical and behavior data. I’ll describe the approaches we are using to integrate these data\, identify disease subtypes and explore their therapeutic potential.\n\nDr. Ernest Fraenkel is a professor in Biomedical Engineering at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Exhibition | Urban Biographies\, Ancient and Modern
DESCRIPTION:Human beings are political animals\, said the Greek philosopher Aristotle: animals that live in the “polis\,” the Greek word for city. Over two thousand years later\, we are still political animals\, and the study of ancient cities is of abiding interest\, for our perceptions of the urban centers of the past continue to exert a powerful hold on modern culture. \n\nThis exhibition showcases three Classical cities where the University of Michigan sponsors field projects: Gabii in Italy\, Olynthos in Greece\, and Notion in Turkey. The archaeologists excavating these cities\, in collaboration with students and faculty from U-M’s Taubman College of Architecture and Urban Planning\, are comparing their findings to projects of urban rebuilding in contemporary Detroit\, asking two main questions: How do contemporary archaeological methods facilitate the study of both ancient and modern cities? And how can the study of the past help illuminate the challenges and opportunities facing Detroit today? \n\nLead Curator: Christopher Ratté\nCo-Curators: Lisa Nevett\, Nicola Terrenato\, and Kathy Velikov\n\nVisit the exhibition website: http://exhibitions.kelsey.lsa.umich.edu/urban-biographies

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Abstraction\, Color\, and Politics in the Early 1970s
DESCRIPTION:Can abstract art be about politics? In the early 1970s\, that question was hotly debated as artists\, critics\, and the public grappled with the relationship between art\, politics\, race\, and feminism. Many of those debates centered on bringing to light the roles that gender and race played in how “great modern art” was defined and assessed\, and on employing art to advance civil rights. Within this discourse\, abstraction had an especially fraught role. To many\, the decision by women artists and artists of color  to make abstract art seemed to represent a retreat from politics and protest: an abnegation of a commitment to civil rights and feminism. \"Abstraction\, Color\, and Politics in the Early 1970s\" presents large-scale work by four leading American artists—Helen Frankenthaler\, Sam Gilliam\, Al Loving\, and Louise Nevelson—who chose abstraction as a means of expression within the intense political climate of the early 1970s.\n\nLead support for \"Abstraction\, Color\, and Politics in the Early 1970s\" is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost\, Michigan Medicine\, the Richard and Rosann Noel Endowment Fund\, the Herbert W. and Susan L. Johe Endowment\, and the University of Michigan Institute for Research on Women and Gender. Additional generous support is provided by the Robert and Janet Miller Fund and the University of Michigan Department of Political Science.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Beyond Borders: Global Africa
DESCRIPTION:More than ever in the era of globalization\, ideas traverse geographic\, generational\, and cultural boundaries\, even as national borders seem to be closing. 'Beyond Borders: Global Africa' reflects on this moment by considering how Africa and its artists have been at the center of complex histories of encounter and exchange for centuries. Bringing together a dazzling array of works made in Africa\, Europe\, and the United States from the nineteenth to twenty-first century\, the exhibition demonstrates the international scope and reach of art from Africa and the African diaspora. It also explores issues such as slavery\, colonization\, migration\, racism\, and identity at play in the objects and their histories. Highlights include paintings\, photographs\, sculpture\, and installations by Kudzanai Chiurai\, Omar Victor Diop\, Wangechi Mutu\, and Serge Alain Nitegeka. The exhibition will be accompanied by a fully-illustrated publication\, the tenth in the UMMA Books series.\n\nLead support for 'Beyond Borders: Global Africa' is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost\, Michigan Medicine\, the National Endowment for the Arts\, and the University of Michigan Office of Research\, African Studies Center\, and Department of Afroamerican and African Studies.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Have We Met? Dialogues on Memory and Desire
DESCRIPTION:Have We Met: Dialogues on Memory and Desire draws inspiration from Ann Arbor’s legacy of social movements (Anti-War Movement\, Civil Rights Movements) and experimental art practices (The Once Group) from the late-1950s to the 1970s as its point of departure. It brings together archival materials and reproductions from the University of Michigan’s Labadie Collection and the Bentley Library in conjunction with radical artworks by diverse\, multi-generational artists and designers whose works are deeply influenced by the ideas of freedom and self-determination\; re-writing the canonical accounts of history\; and building contemporary culture and solidarity through collective action.\n\nAt a time when the idea of citizenship in the United States is being deeply challenged and redefined through horrific occurrences of gun violence and police brutality towards racialized and queer civilians and refugees\, this exhibition asks what role art institutions can play in building inclusive and vibrant creative spaces the 21st Century. Have We Met? Dialogues on Memory and Desire retraces and learns from models of collectivity and organizing mobilized by artists\, designers\, and cultural producers in the past and present as a lens to understand the contemporary moment and re-imagine the future.  It explores the complex relationships and at times overlapping and contested concerns between contemporary art\, design\, and social justice that continually influence and inform one another.\n\nArtists: Rudolf Baranik\, Stephanie Dinkins\, Emory Douglas\, Brendan Fernandes\, Chitra Ganesh\, Carole Harris\, Maren Hassinger\, Al Loving\, Josh MacPhee\, Native Art Department International\, Michele Oka Doner\, Yoko Ono\, Kameelah Janan Rasheed\, Martha Rosler\, Buster Simpson\, Gregory Sholette\, Leni Sinclair\, Stephanie Syjuco\, Graem Whyte\, and Zafos Xagoraris. \n\nCurated by Srimoyee Mitra.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:New at UMMA: Life Magazine 1947 Homecoming Photographs
DESCRIPTION:In October 1947\, just two years after the end of World War II\, the popular weekly news magazine LIFE sent staff photographers Lisa Larsen and Ralph Morse to cover homecoming weekend at the University of Michigan. The subsequent article\, “Michigan Homecoming\,” which brought national attention to UM’s athletic program\, featured a seven-page spread with photographs of the campus during a much-anticipated football game between the number-one ranked Michigan Wolverines and the University of Minnesota’s Golden Gophers. This installation provides a unique opportunity to view twenty-one images of that weekend\, many of which were not published in the original article\, recently donated to UMMA by John and Susan Edwards Harvith. Considered alongside the article\, these photographs of fervent fans\, strolling couples\, alumni making their annual pilgrimage\, and the game itself present LIFE magazine’s view of a giddy post-war public enjoying a return to American pastimes.\n\nThese photographs were recently gifted to UMMA by John (AB '69\, JD '73) and Susan (MMP '73) Harvith.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:CJS Thursday Noon Lecture Series | Tradition and Innovation in English-language Noh\, \"Blue Moon Over Memphis\"
DESCRIPTION:Part of the Toyota Visiting Professor 30th Anniversary Special Lecture Series\n\nNOTE: Please join us for \"Blue Moon Over Memphis\" at the Power Center on Friday\, October 12\, 2018 at 7pm.\n\nIn preparation for the English-language Noh performance at the University of Michigan of \"Blue Moon Over Memphis\" (BMOM)\, a story based on the legendary Elvis Presley\, this talk examines how Noh can be created and performed in languages other than Japanese\, what aspects BMOM has maintained or adapted from tradition\, and how this version deviates from tradition. This talk posits that English-language Noh has become an entry point into Noh for audiences\, and that its composers have created English-language Noh text-music conventions. BMOM reveals the flexibility of the Noh form and how it can accommodate innovative musical elements in English. \n    \nMariko Anno is Associate Professor at Tokyo Institute of Technology. She earned a Ph.D. in Ethnomusicology from Tokyo University of the Arts and a D.M.A. in Flute Performance from the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign. Her research examines Japanese Noh drama in a contemporary transnational context through English-language Noh. \n\nIf you are a person with a disability who requires an accommodation to attend this event\, please reach out to bkinzer@umich.edu at least 2 weeks in advance of this event. Please be aware that advance notice is necessary as some accommodations may require more time for the university to arrange.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:The Taking of K-129
DESCRIPTION:An incredible true tale of espionage and engineering set at the height of the Cold War—a mix between The Hunt for Red October and Argo—about how the CIA\, the U.S. Navy\, and America’s most eccentric mogul spent six years and nearly a billion dollars to steal the nuclear-armed Soviet submarine K-129 after it had sunk to the bottom of the Pacific Ocean\; all while the Russians were watching.\n\nThe Taking of K-129 is a riveting\, almost unbelievable true-life tale of military history\, engineering genius\, and high-stakes spy-craft set during the height of the Cold War\, when nuclear annihilation was a constant fear\, and the opportunity to gain even the slightest advantage over your enemy was worth massive risk.\n\nWriter Josh Dean will visit the department for the new Community Project. He'll be joined by NAME alumni who worked on this unbelievable project\, including Chuck Cannon\, Charlie Canby and John Hollett.\n\nWhen: October 11th 12-2 PM\nWhere: Gerald Ford Library\n\nLunch provided.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:ChE Seminar Series: K. Dane Wittrup
DESCRIPTION:C.P. Dubbs Professor of Chemical Engineering and Biological Engineering\nAssociate Director\, Koch Institute for Integrative Cancer Research\nMassachusetts Institute of Technology\n\nABSTRACT\n\n\"Bioengineering of synergistic innate and adaptive immunotherapy of cancer\"\n\nHarnessing the immune system to attack cancer has started a revolution in oncology.  The ability of the adaptive immune system to track such evolving pathologies has provided robust responses and cures in 10-25% of previously intractable cancers such as metastatic melanoma.  The next frontier is to “raise the tail” of the survival curve in such cancers by finding synergistic combination therapies.  Chemical and biological engineers have pioneered approaches that are well suited to such investigations\, bringing quantitative problem-solving synthetic and analytical toolkits to bear.  I’ll provide examples from my lab where cocktails of anti-tumor antibodies and cytokines have accomplished highly safe and efficacious therapies as tested in mouse models of cancer.

SUMMARY:Presentation:EHAP Speaker Series
DESCRIPTION:Sculpting the Epigenome Across Generations\n\n\nThe transmission of characteristics to individuals that promote development\, reproduction and survival is a critical feature of evolution and has traditionally focused on genetic variation as a substrate for inheritance.  However\, advances in our understanding of epigenetics has guided new perspectives on the biological factors that contribute to the inheritance of a broad range of characteristics – particularly those shaped by the environment.  In this talk\, I will describe research examining the impact of a broad range of parental experiences\, including exposure to stress\, toxins and altered nutrition\, on offspring development and behavior and illustrate the complex and dynamic routes through which the transmission of characteristics across generations can be achieved.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:A New Approach to Resonant Column Testing
DESCRIPTION:The presentation is about a new approach for performing\, analyzing test data\, and modeling the shear modulus and damping from Resonant Column Tests. The “New Approach” makes use of the transfer function method of John P. Wolf (Dynamic Soil-Structure Interaction) for modeling the soil specimen as a viscoelastic\, distributed mass element. The new solution is simple and easy to implement with a spreadsheet. It provides for accurate determination of shear modulus and damping over a range of frequencies not just the resonant frequency. The analysis of data is done for each applied value of torque and frequency and captures the true nonlinear properties of soil. The method is the basis for the new ASTM Standard D4015-15ε1. Dr. Drnevich will discuss additional uses of the new approach for simulation and modeling.\n\nVince Drnevich received his B.S. and M.S. degrees in civil engineering from the University of Notre Dame and he completed the Ph.D. degree at the University of Michigan. He held faculty positions\nat the University of Kentucky and Purdue University\, serving as Chair and Acting Dean at Kentucky and the Head of School at Purdue. His research focuses on the engineering properties of soils\, especially as measured by stress wave propagation and electromagnetic wave propagation. Dr. Drnevich has been recognized for both his teaching and research by many national awards from the American Society of Civil Engineers\, the American Society for Testing and Materials\, and the American Society for Engineering Education.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:CM Theory Seminar | Mechanics of Allosteric Materials - How Proteins Mediate Long-Range Interaction
DESCRIPTION:A crucial regulation for life is enabled at the molecular level through allosteric proteins\, whose catalytic activity at the active sites can be significantly enhanced or inhibited by the appearance of specific chemicals binding at their allosteric sites. Predicting the allosteric pathways from protein structures would help us determine regulation networks and design smart drugs. However\, it remains a challenge as the nature of allostery — this elasticity-mediated long-range interaction is understood superficially. To approach the problem with systematic samples\, we introduce a numerical scheme with the model proteins evolving in-silico to accomplish specific allosteric functions. We then obtain statistical features among thousands of solutions to the tasks and deduce rules for the allosteric mechanics. For the geometric task when a specific strain is propagated through the media\, we find commonly applied is an edge-mode mechanism which quickly amplifies the strain signal close to the active site. While for the cooperative task with elastic energy conveyed\, we reveal that the appearance of a mechanism\, an extended and nearly zero energy mode\, dominates the pathway. This mechanism can appear as shear\, hinge\, and twist — designs found in some allosteric proteins\, or be more complicated and hard to visualize. But independent of specific designs\, we predict such a scaling relation for the frequency of the allosteric mechanism that the cooperative energy is optimized to be independent of the protein size. \n\nBio:  After obtained Bachelor degree at Peking University in 2010\, Le moved to the United States for his PhD at New York University\, where he worked with Matthieu Wyart studying the glassy dynamics and rigidity transition. After that\, he has been a postdoc fellow at Kavli Institute for Theoretical Physics in Santa Barbara\, where he is applying his physics knowledge to understand mysteries in various scales of biology: from the protein structure to epithelial tissue network to evolution of flu.\n

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Communication and Media Speaker Series
DESCRIPTION:Inspired by a U.S. Joint Forces Command Report from 2008 that labeled Mexico a state in risk of “rapid and sudden collapse\,” in this talk\, Dr. Amaya uses a discourse analysis of the concept of “failed state” to illuminate the connections between this concept\, violence\, and order. These connections are highly troubling. They reveal that contemporary ideas about orderly states and state failure cannot be understood without reference to the genealogy of order and its political economy. Order is not simply a normative value\, but the outcome of particular ways of organizing political power and the economy. In the histories this talk engages\, these particular ways of organizing political power and the economy are intertwined with the histories of colonialism and the racial and ethnic ideologies this colonialism depended on.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Economic Development/Economics History Seminar: Matrilineal Kinship and Spousal Cooperation: Evidence from the Matrilineal Belt
DESCRIPTION:I examine how matrilineal relative to patrilineal kinship systems affect spousal cooperation. In matrilineal kinship systems\, lineage and inheritance are traced through female members. The structure of matrilineal kinship systems implies that\, relative to patrilineal kinship systems\, women have greater support from their own kin groups\, and husbands have less authority over their wives. I use experimental and physiological measures and a geographic regression discontinuity design along the matrilineal belt in Africa to test how kinship systems affect spousal cooperation. Men and women from matrilineal ethnic groups cooperate less with their spouses in a lab experiment. This is not the case when paired with a stranger of the opposite sex. I examine the implications of matrilineal kinship for the well–being of women and children. Children of matrilineal women are healthier and better educated\, and matrilineal women experience less domestic violence. The results highlight how household outcomes are tied to broader social structures.\n\nSarah Lowes graduated from Harvard University in May 2017 with a Ph.D. from the Political Economy and Government program (Economics track).

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:EEB Thursday Seminar: Evolution of the essential gap gene giant causes hybrid inviability in Drosophila
DESCRIPTION:Hybrids have reduced fitness because of faulty interactions among genes that have diverged between the pure species. The most extreme hybrid defect is inviability. Hybrids therefore provide an easy to screen phenotype to identify what genes and molecular pathways have functionally diverged as genomes differentiate. Here I identify the Drosophila melanogaster allele of the highly conserved and essential gap gene giant (gt) as a key genetic determinant of hybrid inviability in crosses with D. santomea. The presence of this allele in D. melanogaster/D. santomea hybrids causes an abdominal ablation not seen in either pure species. giant is a key developmental regulator whose role in anterior-posterior specification of the dipteran embryo is conserved over 100 million years. The interaction of giant with a second allele\, tailless\,tll\, is involved in the hybrid defects observed in these Drosophila hybrids. These results indicate that even genes with crucial developmental roles that are conserved over vast evolutionary time scales can experience functional evolution that leads to inviability of hybrids

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:EIHS Lecture: Medieval Chests as Ideological Objects
DESCRIPTION:Abstract: Chests were the most common piece of medieval furniture. As aristocratic households moved from castle to castle\, chests transported the valuables that accompanied them. After the Black Death\, they were instrumental in helping Londoners cope with the consequences of the so-called consumer revolution: what to do with the profusion of dishware\, clothing\, and knick-knacks when they were not in use\, and how to retrieve them when needed. Embedded in the routines of storage were larger ideological concerns of order\, gender\, and behavior\; highly contested issues in the post-plague world. The chest helps us understand how domestic dynamics changed in the two-centuries following the plague.\n\nKatherine French received her PhD in 1993 from the University of Minnesota\, where she worked with Barbara Hanawalt. She taught at SUNY New Paltz\, one of the regional universities in the SUNY system\, for eighteen years before being appointed the J. Frederick Hoffman Professor of medieval English history at the University of Michigan in 2011. She has held fellowships at the Harvard Divinity School\, the National Endowment for the Humanities\, the Institute for the Humanities at Princeton\, and U-M's Institute for the Humanities. Her scholarship focuses on women\, religion\, and material culture in late medieval England. Her first two monographs\, The People of the Parish: Community Life in a Late Medieval English Diocese (Philadelphia\, 2001) and The Good Women of the Parish: Religion and Gender after the Black Death (Pennsylvania\, 2008)\, analyzed the religious practices of English peasants and townspeople in the two hundred years between the Black Death (1348) and the Reformation. Most Reformation scholarship argued that local life was disintegrating. She was interested in the ways in which community identity and gender shape religious practice. She has also co-authored a text book Women and Gender in the Western Past (Houghton Mifflin\, 2001) and is the author of more than twenty articles and book chapters. Her current book project “Household Goods and Good Households in Late Medieval London” continues to try to understand the consequences of losing between a third to a half of the population to the Black Death. It asks how did increasing consumption after the Black Death by London’s merchants and artisans shaped their household dynamics.\n\nFree and open to the public. \n\nThis event is part of the Thursday Series of the Eisenberg Institute for Historical Studies. It is made possible by a generous contribution from Kenneth and Frances Aftel Eisenberg.

SUMMARY:Well-being:FREE 4-Session Mindfulness Class
DESCRIPTION:*Registration Closed. Contact hkat@umich.edu for future 4-week sessions.*\n\nThursdays from 4:00 - 5:30pm (10/4\, 10/11\, 10/18\, 10/25)\n@ Angel Hall G243 (Ground Floor)\nDuring this 4-session class you will be introduced to the practice of mindfulness and learn several skills\, including meditation\, for managing stress and enriching your life. Mindfulness is about developing the ability to be fully attentive to all the moments of your life\, reducing the amount of time you spend worrying about the future or fretting about the past. An important aspect of mindfulness is developing a non-judgmental\, accepting\, even curious\, attitude about your moment-to-moment experience. The more you develop this attitude\, the less you will feel overwhelmed by changes and challenges in your life.\n\nKoru is designed to introduce you to the practice of mindfulness and get you well on your way to developing this important skill. Like learning any new skill\, it takes practice to get comfortable with mindfulness. We invite you to devote yourself to the study and practice of mindfulness over the next four weeks\, and we challenge you to stay curious about what evolves for you as you persistently and patiently practice living mindfully. We also have a free mobile app to track meditation practices for this course!\n\nFor any questions\, please contact Hitomi Katsumi at hkat@umich.edu.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Law & Economics: Inducing Negligence
DESCRIPTION:Abstract:\n\nWould a potential victim prefer to be treated negligently? We show that even with less than full compensation the answer might be yes. The reason for this is that under tort law victims are often compensated by negligent injurers for the materialization of risks not created by their negligence. Thus\, by being exposed to even slight negligence\, they gain free insurance for those risks. More interestingly\, we also show that under certain circumstances some injurers would prefer to behave negligently toward their victims\, even if they expect to compensate them for risks not created by their negligence. As a result\, victims might select them as their potential injurers\, or in our terms\, “induce negligence.” Although behaving negligently given the selection of the injurer by the victim can be efficient\, inducing negligence is not the first best. In order to achieve the first best\, courts should avoid attributing liability for harms materialized from risks not created by negligence (or resort to contributory negligence).

SUMMARY:Presentation:Blue Planet and Planet Earth Production Teams: Capturing the Wild
DESCRIPTION:Tom Hugh-Jones is the producer of the David Attenborough-narrated Planet Earth BBC series and has spent twenty-two years producing natural history and science documentaries for broadcasters such as BBC\, National Geographic\, and Discovery. When he was just four years old\, Tom’s anthropologist parents took him to live with a tribal community in the Colombian Amazon\, sowing the seeds of his passion for adventure in the wild. Since then\, Hugh-Jones has worked on many prolific titles such as Planet Earth\, Human Planet\, and Life Story\, taking audiences around the world into the beating heart of breath-taking moments\, close encounters\, spectacular failures\, and places no human should ever go.\n\nHugh-Jones will also bring special guests from Blue Planet Production to discuss the teamwork and process of making Planet Earth and its companion BBC show\, Blue Planet. Guests include producer/director Rachael Butler and Pam and Tim Fogg of Rope Access Specialists\, a team of experts in rope-access rigging and safety when shooting in difficult-to-reach locales such as caves\, volcanoes\, and cliffs.\n\nCo-Presented by U-M Museum of Natural History’s William R. Farrand Memorial Lecture with support from U-M Institute for the Humanities.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Annual Distinguished Lecture on Europe. Islamophobia and the Struggle for Recognition
DESCRIPTION:Until recently\, the concept of islamophobia was located in the field of religious tolerance and pluralism. Professor Modood pioneered an alternative understanding of the phenomenon\, defining islamophobia instead as anti-Muslim racism in the context of multicultural citizenship. That alternative definition is now emerging as the dominant interpretation\, accepted by UNESCO and gaining traction in social sciences and public discourse alike. Professor Modood will outline the public career of the concept of Islamophobia and discuss his misgivings about the direction that some Islamophobia/Muslim studies are taking.\n\nTariq Modood is professor of sociology\, politics\, and public policy and the founding director of the Centre for the Study of Ethnicity and Citizenship at the University of Bristol. He is also the co-founder of the international journal Ethnicities. He has held over 40 grants and consultancies\, has over 35 (co-)authored and (co-)edited books and reports\, as well as over 200 articles and chapters. He was a Robert Schuman Fellow at the European University Institute for part of 2013-15\, and a “Thinker in Residence” at the Royal Academy of Flanders\, Brussels in 2017. His latest books include \"Multiculturalism: A Civic Idea\" (2nd ed.\, 2013)\; \"Multiculturalism Rethought\" (2015)\; \"Multiculturalism and Interculturalism: Debating the Dividing Lines\" (2016)\; and \"The Problem of Religious Diversity: European Problems\, Asian Challenges\" (2017). \n\nIf you are a person with a disability who requires an accommodation to attend this event\, please reach out to cesmichigan@umich.edu at least 2 weeks in advance of this event. Please be aware that advance notice is necessary as some accommodations may require more time for the university to arrange.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:High Performance Computing & Data Science Workshop
DESCRIPTION:Researchers can leverage high performance computing (HPC) to pose and probe unique and interesting questions. In order to answer those questions\, they need some ability to extract meaning from the data they generate. Data science has recently risen to prominence for its abilities not only to extract this meaning\, but also to turn that meaning into actionable\, data-driven predictions. Combining HPC and data science can allow a researcher to more easily ask questions and discover answers leading to even deeper questions. However\, despite these benefits\, it can be difficult for full-time researchers to learn an emerging field with no guidance while still producing research.To reduce this barrier\, the Scientific Computing Student Club (SC2) presents the HPC and Data Science Workshop Series. For eight weeks in the Fall semester\, we will meet once a week to discuss HPC and Data Science topics\, focusing on how elements of HPC and data science can reinforce research and discovery. There will be no one instructor for this workshop\; instead we will have guest speakers from SC2\, ARC-TS\, MICDE\, and even MathWorks (MATLAB). Attendance at all workshops is encouraged\, but not required. Pizza will be provided.

SUMMARY:Film Screening:Race to Nowhere
DESCRIPTION:\"Race to Nowhere\" is a film that calls us to challenge current thinking about how we prepare our children for success. Featuring the heartbreaking stories of students across the country who have been pushed to the brink by over-scheduling\, over-testing and the relentless pressure to achieve\, “Race to Nowhere” points to a silent epidemic in our schools. Through the testimony of educators\, parents and education experts\, it reveals an education system in which cheating has become commonplace\; students have become disengaged\; stress-related illness\, depression and burnout are rampant\; and young people arrive at college and the workplace unprepared and uninspired. \"\n\nFollowing the film\, a panel will speak and lead discussion and Q&A\, including:\nJohn Boshoven\, Counselor Emeritas and Co-Chair of AAPS Counseling Department\n\nPatricia Manley\, Trustee\, Board of Education\,  Ann Arbor Public Schools\n\nTodd Sevig\, Director\, Counseling and Psychological Services\, University of Michigan\n\nThis event is free and co-sponsored by U-M Michigan Community Scholars Program and the Ann Arbor District Library.

SUMMARY:Performance:2nd Annual LGBTQ Monologues
DESCRIPTION:Envisioned as an event that meets the need for LGBTQ spaces and visibility\, the LGBTQ monologues is a platform for all of our stories to be heard. Last year the event enabled twelve students to share a personal portrait of queer and trans life at the university in front of an audience of 150 people. \n\nThis year our goal in celebrating the 2nd annual student performances\, is to build partnerships with the local community and student organizations - to accurately represent the LGBTQ population on campus and the width of experiences students faced. The theme this year is \"More Pride. More Color\".

SUMMARY:Ceremony / Service:Salute to Latinas: Radiance In Color 
DESCRIPTION:Throughout history\, many nations were colonized by European imperialists. During colonization\, indigenous cultures and mannerisms were disrupted and subject to transformations that set up unrealistic standards without proper representation of women of color. We will educate the campus community about this misrepresentation and the significance of bringing awareness to the issue. This year’s theme\, “Radiance in Color”\, will be celebrated through poetry\, amazing guest speakers\,  and a diverse array of cultural foods\, awards. At the end of the night\, we will host a gallery portraying women of color dismantling idealized white standards that govern women in different aspects of life. We will have a professional guest speaker discuss the importance of women of color and the negative effect of enforcing white standards. Most importantly\, our goal is to recognize and celebrate the components of what makes a woman and what makes a Latina. By doing so\, we will educate and empower Latinos and other campus communities to respect and honor women as well as be aware of and/or take action against the many oppressions held against women globally.

SUMMARY:Ceremony / Service:Salute to Latinas:
DESCRIPTION:The Salute to Latinas: Fuerza de la Mujer Latina has been Delta Tau Lambda Sorority Incorporated’s signature event for twenty-four years and was created to honor the accomplishments and strengths of all Latina women and women of color. Each year we celebrate our history\, cultures\, and diversity with pride. We strive to find speakers that are well respected in the community. Additionally\, we take this opportunity to announce and celebrate the winner of our Lydia Cruz & Sandra Maria Ramos Scholarship for young emerging Latina leaders. We also award the “Diamond Award” to a woman dedicated to performing above and beyond in community service and the improvement of the Latino community. The night is focused on celebrating our accomplishments and reflecting on how to collectively improve the conditions of the community. The event ends with a special tribute to Latinas and all women of color\, which varies from spoken word to cultural performances. \nThroughout history\, many nations were colonized by European imperialists. During colonization\, indigenous cultures and mannerisms were disrupted and subject to transformations that set up unrealistic standards without proper representation of women of color.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Animal Friends: Ceramic Sculpture
DESCRIPTION:Marcia Polenberg loves animals\, each with its own unique personality\, intelligence and expressive range of emotions. Using terra-cotta sculpture clay\, Polenberg hand builds her ceramic animals\, seemingly bringing them to life.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Celebrating Science & Art
DESCRIPTION:The brilliantly colored images in this exhibit were taken in the course of scientific research\, and are beautiful in their detail\, form and symmetry. For each one\, an accompanying explanation describes its significance. The subjects of the images are cells\, tissues and organs\, from a wide variety of biological sources (plants\, worms\, fruit flies\, fish\, mice and yes\, even human brain). The colors are added by investigators\, to allow them to see the otherwise transparent tissues. By looking at these microscopic images\, you will learn about research into normal embryonic development as well as cutting-edge investigations into diseases such as basal cell carcinoma\, bipolar disease\, epilepsy and cancer.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Hineinu – Here We Are: An LGBTQ+ Jewish Photovoice Exhibit
DESCRIPTION:A same-sex Jewish marriage contract (Ketubah). A sign for gender inclusive bathrooms in a Jewish Community Center. A Christmas tree adorned with rainbow-colored ornaments and a Star of David topper. These are three of the 21 photos-with-narratives that constitute “Hineinu – Here We Are: An LGBTQ+ Jewish Photovoice Exhibit.” Combined with rich\, thought-provoking text\, these photos give insight into the varied experiences of local community members who are both Jewish and queer.\n\n“Photovoice” is the process of putting cameras in the hands of traditionally “voiceless” or marginalized community members to allow them to record\, reflect on\, and share their community’s strengths and concerns. Photovoice participants have the opportunity to capture their current experiences through pictures\, with the goal of sparking dialogue and action related to the themes depicted in the photos.\n\nAs you view this Photovoice exhibit\, we hope that you will consider what it means to be inclusive and welcoming\, and that you will continue to develop an awareness of the diversity of other people’s experiences both within and outside of the Jewish and LGBTQ+ communities.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Innovations in Ornament
DESCRIPTION:This group show of jewelry and ornaments includes the work of Roger Martin\, who tackled the subject of a raven by relying on planes and shadow lines to imbue the surfaces of the bird with personality. Another one of the seven artists\, Lorraine Kolasa\, picked up the old fashioned art of tatting\, then cast tiny pieces of her handmade lace into sterling silver jewelry. Michael Nashef\, who spent half his life in war-torn Lebanon\, has created a series of innovative vessels and brooches. Other artists included in this exhibit are Kim Cridler\, Roger Smith\, Renee Zettle-Sterling and Ruth Taubman\, whose unmatched exuberance of color and 36 years of work and business innovation\, place her jewelry firmly on the national stage.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Organic Fiction: Acrylic on Canvas
DESCRIPTION:Hava Gurevich’s colorful abstractions feature botanical\, aquatic and microscopic motifs as she explores repeating patterns in nature. Blending images from the real world and her imagination\, Organic Fiction celebrates nature in all its beauty\, chaos and complexity. Hava Gurevich received a BFA in photography from U-M and an MFA in painting from Illinois State University. Her creative process begins with photographs and sketches of details in nature\, such as tree branches\, ice patterns\, twisted vines\, and delicate spring blossoms. These drawings contribute to her personal vocabulary of shapes and gestures\, and she often digitally combines them with older paintings to become starting points of new works.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:David Cope: Player of Invisible Keys
DESCRIPTION:Celebrate the work of Michigan poet David Cope\, once described by Allen Ginsberg as one of the \"leading lights of the next generation.\" This exhibit draws on drafts\, proofs\, and other documents from Cope's archive to offer a glimpse into his poetic and editorial process.\n\nWorking most often in the Objectivist tradition of Charles Reznikoff\, Carl Rakosi\, and George Oppen\, David Cope has a particular gift for descriptive detail and for juxtaposing the the intimacy of daily life with commentary on the arc of current events and the particularity of personal relationships with the universality of human experience.

Additionally\, for more than forty years\, Cope has edited and published a small press literary magazine\, The Big Scream\, providing a venue for more than 200 poets\, including both big names names and younger\, lesser-known poets. Earlier this year\, Ghost Pony Press released Cope’s eighth poetry collection: The Invisible Keys: New and Selected Poems.\n\nOn view during Special Collections Research Center hours: Monday-Friday\, 8:30 a.m. to 5:00 p.m.

Over two thousand years later\, we are still political animals\, and the study of ancient cities is of abiding interest\, for our perceptions of the urban centers of the past continue to exert a powerful hold on modern culture. \n\nThis exhibition showcases three Classical cities where the University of Michigan sponsors field projects: Gabii in Italy\, Olynthos in Greece\, and Notion in Turkey. The archaeologists excavating these cities\, in collaboration with students and faculty from U-M’s Taubman College of Architecture and Urban Planning\, are comparing their findings to projects of urban rebuilding in contemporary Detroit\, asking two main questions: How do contemporary archaeological methods facilitate the study of both ancient and modern cities? And how can the study of the past help illuminate the challenges and opportunities facing Detroit today? \n\nLead Curator: Christopher Ratté\nCo-Curators: Lisa Nevett\, Nicola Terrenato\, and Kathy Velikov\n\nVisit the exhibition website: http://exhibitions.kelsey.lsa.umich.edu/urban-biographies

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Art Exhibit: Nancy Blum\, RC Class of '85
DESCRIPTION:RC alumna '85 Nancy Blum returns to East Quad to exhibit her drawings of flowers and to deliver the 10/19 Robertson Lecture on her public art installations. \n\nExcerpted from her artist statement:\nMy large‐scale works on paper\, rendered in ink\, colored pencil\, gouache and graphite\, portray a fantastic realm in which flowers own the space. I use a variety of 16th and 17th-century botanical images\, from Chinese plum blossoms to German botanicals\, as starting points for each drawing. Rather than alluding to an actual landscape\, I instead combine species of plants in the same drawing that would not customarily exist together in nature. Obsessive handwork creates intricate layers of visual information to be discovered over time and\, in this way\, the works become a seductive meditation for the viewer.\n\nI use botanical motifs to create images that are universally associated with growth and continuity. My deeper intent is to conjure the ‘flower’ as an active\, forceful agent\, subverting a culturally conditioned point of view that often deems the ephemeral and the organic as less powerful and of limited value. My ‘wonderland’ presents a view of life that pulses with expansive fecundity\; hopefully\, it also propels comprehension of the connectedness of all beings within the limitless energy operating throughout this world.\n\nWhen making art for public spaces\, I strive to invest these commissions with similar content\, while bringing beauty and a high level of craft to a particular environment. As I conceive and develop each piece\, I respond to the specifics of the surrounding architecture\, ecosystem\, and community in an effort to compellingly meet the needs of the site. My studio practice\, in turn\, is invigorated by opportunities to design work in relationship to an existing framework\, and the special demands and responsibilities this process entails.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Abstraction\, Color\, and Politics in the Early 1970s
DESCRIPTION:Can abstract art be about politics? In the early 1970s\, that question was hotly debated as artists\, critics\, and the public grappled with the relationship between art\, politics\, race\, and feminism. Many of those debates centered on bringing to light the roles that gender and race played in how “great modern art” was defined and assessed\, and on employing art to advance civil rights. Within this discourse\, abstraction had an especially fraught role. To many\, the decision by women artists and artists of color  to make abstract art seemed to represent a retreat from politics and protest: an abnegation of a commitment to civil rights and feminism. \"Abstraction\, Color\, and Politics in the Early 1970s\" presents large-scale work by four leading American artists—Helen Frankenthaler\, Sam Gilliam\, Al Loving\, and Louise Nevelson—who chose abstraction as a means of expression within the intense political climate of the early 1970s.\n\nLead support for \"Abstraction\, Color\, and Politics in the Early 1970s\" is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost\, Michigan Medicine\, the Richard and Rosann Noel Endowment Fund\, the Herbert W. and Susan L. Johe Endowment\, and the University of Michigan Institute for Research on Women and Gender. Additional generous support is provided by the Robert and Janet Miller Fund and the University of Michigan Department of Political Science.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Beyond Borders: Global Africa
DESCRIPTION:More than ever in the era of globalization\, ideas traverse geographic\, generational\, and cultural boundaries\, even as national borders seem to be closing. 'Beyond Borders: Global Africa' reflects on this moment by considering how Africa and its artists have been at the center of complex histories of encounter and exchange for centuries. Bringing together a dazzling array of works made in Africa\, Europe\, and the United States from the nineteenth to twenty-first century\, the exhibition demonstrates the international scope and reach of art from Africa and the African diaspora. It also explores issues such as slavery\, colonization\, migration\, racism\, and identity at play in the objects and their histories. Highlights include paintings\, photographs\, sculpture\, and installations by Kudzanai Chiurai\, Omar Victor Diop\, Wangechi Mutu\, and Serge Alain Nitegeka. The exhibition will be accompanied by a fully-illustrated publication\, the tenth in the UMMA Books series.\n\nLead support for 'Beyond Borders: Global Africa' is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost\, Michigan Medicine\, the National Endowment for the Arts\, and the University of Michigan Office of Research\, African Studies Center\, and Department of Afroamerican and African Studies. Additional generous support is provided by the University of Michigan CEW Frances and Sydney Lewis Visiting Leaders Fund and Susan Ullrich.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Have We Met? Dialogues on Memory and Desire
DESCRIPTION:Have We Met: Dialogues on Memory and Desire draws inspiration from Ann Arbor’s legacy of social movements (Anti-War Movement\, Civil Rights Movements) and experimental art practices (The Once Group) from the late-1950s to the 1970s as its point of departure. It brings together archival materials and reproductions from the University of Michigan’s Labadie Collection and the Bentley Library in conjunction with radical artworks by diverse\, multi-generational artists and designers whose works are deeply influenced by the ideas of freedom and self-determination\; re-writing the canonical accounts of history\; and building contemporary culture and solidarity through collective action.\n\nAt a time when the idea of citizenship in the United States is being deeply challenged and redefined through horrific occurrences of gun violence and police brutality towards racialized and queer civilians and refugees\, this exhibition asks what role art institutions can play in building inclusive and vibrant creative spaces the 21st Century. Have We Met? Dialogues on Memory and Desire retraces and learns from models of collectivity and organizing mobilized by artists\, designers\, and cultural producers in the past and present as a lens to understand the contemporary moment and re-imagine the future.  It explores the complex relationships and at times overlapping and contested concerns between contemporary art\, design\, and social justice that continually influence and inform one another.\n\nArtists: Rudolf Baranik\, Stephanie Dinkins\, Emory Douglas\, Brendan Fernandes\, Chitra Ganesh\, Carole Harris\, Maren Hassinger\, Al Loving\, Josh MacPhee\, Native Art Department International\, Michele Oka Doner\, Yoko Ono\, Kameelah Janan Rasheed\, Martha Rosler\, Buster Simpson\, Gregory Sholette\, Leni Sinclair\, Stephanie Syjuco\, Graem Whyte\, and Zafos Xagoraris. \n\nCurated by Srimoyee Mitra.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Manufacturing Research Seminar Series: Recurrent Data Analysis in the Framework of Socket Models
DESCRIPTION:Abstract\nConsider a set of “sibling” components in a multi-socket repairable system. In the case of an automobile\, for example\, these siblings would be spark plugs\, light bulbs\, tires\, that is\, identical components that are coded with the same part number. When field [big] data are analyzed\, a dilemma arises as to how to interpret a recurrent replacement of a sibling component: as a secondary failure of the component that has already been replaced once\, or as the first failure of the component’s sibling(s)? From the stand point of root-cause analysis\, the task is to understand whether recurrent failures are related to (i) a particular sibling\, which might be operating in inauspicious conditions relative to other siblings\, or (ii) to all siblings on the vehicle. One could attribute Scenario (i) to a system-level (e.g. system interaction) problem\, and Scenario (ii) to a component-level (supplier quality) problem. We first review a statistical procedure that solves the above-mentioned dilemma in the framework of ordinary renewal process (ORP) and then extend the discussion to the non-homogeneous Poisson process (NHPP) and the g-renewal process (GRP). \n\nBio\nVasiliy Krivtsov is the Director of Reliability Analytics at the Ford Motor Company.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:New at UMMA: Life Magazine 1947 Homecoming Photographs
DESCRIPTION:In October 1947\, just two years after the end of World War II\, the popular weekly news magazine LIFE sent staff photographers Lisa Larsen and Ralph Morse to cover homecoming weekend at the University of Michigan. The subsequent article\, “Michigan Homecoming\,” which brought national attention to UM’s athletic program\, featured a seven-page spread with photographs of the campus during a much-anticipated football game between the number-one ranked Michigan Wolverines and the University of Minnesota’s Golden Gophers. This installation provides a unique opportunity to view twenty-one images of that weekend\, many of which were not published in the original article\, recently donated to UMMA by John and Susan Edwards Harvith. Considered alongside the article\, these photographs of fervent fans\, strolling couples\, alumni making their annual pilgrimage\, and the game itself present LIFE magazine’s view of a giddy post-war public enjoying a return to American pastimes.\n\nThese photographs were recently gifted to UMMA by John (AB '69\, JD '73) and Susan (MMP '73) Harvith.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Friday Lecture Series. Lao Murals in Northeast Thailand
DESCRIPTION:Research on temple murals in Thailand has focused on those commissioned by the rich and famous—royalty\, nobility\, or wealthy entrepreneurs—in historic centers of power\, such as Auytthaya\, Thonburi\, Bangkok and to a lesser extent the northern Lanna kingdom. Little has been written in either Thai or English about the unique early 20th century murals of ethnic Lao people in the Northeast\, a region also known as Isan. These murals\, rather than being inferior copies of those in the central region\, are inspired by local Buddhist stories and practices and are executed with a verve and vision unique to their creators. Among their most distinctive characteristics are their diverse compositions and their location on the exterior of ordination halls. \n\nLocated in villages rather than provincial capitals\, these humble murals are not well-known even in Isan. However\, Wat Chaisi\, a temple in a village 20 kilometers from Khon Kaen city is quickly becoming famous as a model of preservation\, education\, and Buddhist celebrations and is even being advertised by the Tourism Authority of Thailand. The talk will include pictures of many murals and summaries of the stories depicted. \n\n ---\nThe following text will be included on all II events unless  you indicate otherwise:If you are a person with a disability who requires an accommodation to attend this event\, please reach out to us at least 2 weeks in advance of this event.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Statistics Department Seminar Series: Jessi Cisewski\, Assistant Professor of Statistics & Data Science\, Yale University
DESCRIPTION:Data exhibiting complicated spatial structures are common in many areas of science (e.g. cosmology\, biology)\, but can be difficult to analyze. Persistent homology is a popular approach within the area of Topological Data Analysis that offers a way to represent\, visualize\, and interpret complex data by extracting topological features\, which can be used to infer properties of the underlying structures.  For example\, TDA may be useful for analyzing the large-scale structure (LSS) of the Universe\, which is an intricate and spatially complex web of matter.  The output from persistent homology\, called persistence diagrams\, summarize the different ordered holes in the data (e.g. connected components\, loops\, voids).  I will introduce persistent homology\, present functional transformations of persistence diagrams useful for inference\, and discuss several applications.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Dance Modern Lab Master Class Series: Alan Good
DESCRIPTION:An Ann Arbor native\, Alan Good graduated from SUNY Purchase and went on to dance with Merce Cunningham Dance Company from 1978-94. In the 1970s he danced in projects with Martha Graham Company (“Clytemnestra”)\, Pauline Koner\, and Kenneth King’s RadioactivIDity. In the 1990s\, he joined Wally Cardona Quartet and took part in projects with Tere O’Connor Notes on Shame\, Sasha Waltz's Dialog II\, Marjorie Gamso\, Vicky Shick\, Sally Silvers's Yessified\, Elke Rindfleisch\, Rika Burnham\, and Linda Seifert. Most recently he was in Liz Magic Laser’s The Digital Face\, Pam Tanowitz's the story progresses…\, and Ellen Cornfield’s Small Stages. He has presented his own choreography since 1983 and as AlanGoodDance between 2000-08.  He currently teaches at the Cunningham Trust and teaches master classes in colleges. This summer\, he taught movement in Greek camps  to children of Syrian families that fled war (El Sistema Greece).\n\n\nEach Modern Lab session features a different guest artist teaching a master class and sections from their repertory. This panorama of the contemporary dance field is presented to broaden the students’ awareness of potential career possibilities. Each guest artist conducts a 30-minute technique class/warm-up and then teaches repertory that is performed by the class. In the final 15 minutes\, faculty coordinator Bill De Young conducts a Q & A with each artist\, discussing their career\; their recommendations for transitioning from student to professional\, and what they look for when they audition dancers for their projects.\n\nThis event supported in part by the EXCEL Lab.

Lunch provided. \n\nPart of the semester-long series celebrating 30 years of the Doctoral Program in Anthropology and History. \n\nThis event is part of the Friday Series of the Eisenberg Institute for Historical Studies. It is made possible by a generous contribution from Kenneth and Frances Aftel Eisenberg. Additional support from the Doctoral Program in Anthropology and History.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:IOE 836 Seminar: Bernard Martin\, PhD
DESCRIPTION:Bio: Bernard J. Martin received an Engineering degree in applied physics from the Ecole Nationale Supérieure de Physique de Marseille\, France\; Ph.D. (biomedical engineering) and Dr.Sci. (Neuroscience) degrees from the Université de Provence\, Marseille\, France\, in 1980 and 1989\, respectively. He is currently an Associate Professor in the Department of Industrial and Operations Engineering and Adjunct Research Scientist in the School of Kinesiology\, University of Michigan. His research interests are in human motor control\, sensorimotor systems\, muscle fatigue\, biomechanics\, motion simulation\, human vibration\, and stroke rehabilitation.\n\nAbstract: Work-related neck and shoulder pains are highly prevalent in jobs with low physical exposure. Myalgia of the trapezius muscle is one of the most prevalent work-related neck-shoulder disorders and muscle fatigue is widely considered a precursor of such disorders. There is evidence that long-lasting low-level activity of the trapezius muscle appears as a crucial link in the pathway from workplace physiological and psychological demands to the development of work related neck pain. A possible approach to reduce the risks associated with muscle fatigue is to disrupt the monotonous muscle activity by adding frequent\, active breaks during the working task. In the first phase of our investigation the long lasting component of trapezius muscle fatigue resulting from low-level\, sustained working task and spatio-temporal distribution of EMG activity are investigated in two conditions including passive break or active disruption of muscle contraction. Muscle fatigue develops and persists after the end of the workday. It appears that the alteration of force control may be associated with the corresponding fatigue. However\, these phenomena seem to be counteracted by disruption of muscle contraction monotony by active interventions during the workday. Indeed\, the presence of active disruptions also induces changes in the timing and degree of EMG activity as well as features of trapezius active areas. The extent of these adaptations appears to be subject and work task dependent but seem to be beneficial for the reduction of muscle fatigue.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:LSI Diversity Summit Lecture: Baldomero Olivera\, Ph.D.
DESCRIPTION:Baldomero Olivera\, Ph.D. will provide this year's LSI Diversity Summit Lecture\, as part of the University of Michigan's Annual Diversity\, Equity and Inclusion Summit.\n\nAbstract:\nThere are 1000 different species of venomous cone snails and over 20\,000 venomous snails in the marine environment (Superfamily Conoidea). Their venoms are complex\, each with 100 to 200 different bioactive components\, and each species has a different set of venom components. This talk will focus on the ca. 150 species that prey on fish. The fish-hunting cone snails have evolved different strategies to capture their fish prey\; and by understanding how the different lineages evolved and the behavior of the snails\, and how their venoms affect the behavior of fish (and mice)\, insight has been gained into how different molecular components of the venom work. As a consequence of this research\, there is one approved drug from these venoms\, two that have reached clinical trials\, and several in pre-clinical development.\n\nAbout the Speaker:\nOlivera is a Distinguished Professor of Biology at the University of Utah\, a Howard Hughes Medical Institute Professor and an adjunct professor at the University of the Philippines Marine Science Institute. He is a member of the American Philosophical Society\, the U.S. National Academy of Science and the Institute of Medicine.  His awards include the Outstanding Alumni Award of Caltech\, the Redi Award from the International Society for Toxinology and the Harvard Foundation Scientist of the Year 2007 Award.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:AE285 Undergraduate Seminar: Taking Aerospace Engineering to New Heights with the Power of Data
DESCRIPTION:Eric Muir\, Ph.D.\, The Boeing Company\n\nA valuable resource is becoming increasingly available to engineers across all disciplines: data. Data is changing the way society lives and works from social media to automobile safety to smart manufacturing. While data has always played a key role in engineering\, the volume and variety now available enables new insights on the behavior of complex systems and their environment. When leveraged properly\, this influx of data provides an opportunity for significant advancement in engineering solutions that benefit society.\n\n\nIn this seminar\, the impacts of big data and machine learning technologies on data-driven engineering are explored with emphasis on the aerospace industry. Modern aircraft are outfitted with thousands of sensors and produce hundreds of gigabytes of data each flight. Combined with data collected during design\, build\, and testing\, engineers have a wealth of information to increase safety\, enhance value\, and improve future designs. Engineers will be instrumental in harnessing the power of all this data\, collecting the right information and making it available to the right person at the right time.\n\n \n\nAbout the speaker...\n\nEric Muir earned his Bachelors\, Masters and Ph.D. in Aerospace Engineering from the University of Michigan and currently works at the Boeing Company in Seattle\, WA. He is currently a data scientist in autonomous systems development combining his passion for engineering and aviation with new technologies in data analytics and machine learning. Prior to this role\, Eric was a structural dynamics engineer within the Propulsion Systems Division where he advanced fan blade-out and windmilling dynamic analyses of turbofan engines\, particularly the GE9X on the 777X. In addition to his work at Boeing\, he also teaches a structural dynamics course at the University of Washington.\n\n\nEric’s interests as an aerospace engineer center on tackling challenging and complex problems using cutting-edge technologies. His work spans structural dynamics and fluid-structure interaction and is expanding into the areas of machine learning and autonomous flight. He is enthusiastic about the impact of these advanced technologies on the design\, manufacture\, and operation of the next generation of sophisticated aerospace systems.\n\nEric lives in Seattle with his wife and daughter and is an avid outdoorsman and pilot who enjoys taking full advantage of the recreation in the Pacific Northwest.

SUMMARY:Presentation:Correcting misinformation: Anti-vaxxers beliefs about the cause of autism
DESCRIPTION:Individuals are susceptible to misinformation\, such as the incorrect notion that vaccines cause autism. Despite strong evidence to the contrary\, many individuals still believe that childhood vaccinations cause autism (DeStefano et al.\, 2013\; Horne et al.\, 2015\; Jain et al.\, 2015). Here\, we examine the conditions under which this misconception may be eliminated. The current study is a replication of Horne et al. (2015)\, who found that communicating the risk of diseases targeted by vaccines was more effective than directly correcting misinformation. The findings from this study will provide the general public as well as public health officials with a scientific basis for how to successfully alter attitudes towards vaccines.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Determine the Number of States in Hidden Markov Models VIA Marginal Likelihood
DESCRIPTION:Abstract: Hidden Markov models (HMM) have been widely adopted by scientists from various fields to model stochastic systems: the underlying process is a discrete Markov chain and the observations are noisy realizations of the underlying process. Determining the number of hidden states for an HMM is a model selection problem\, which has yet to be satisfactorily solved\, especially for the popular Gaussian HMM with heterogeneous covariance. In this paper\, we propose a consistent method for determining the number of hidden states of HMM based on the marginal likelihood. We give a rigorous proof of the consistency of the proposed marginal likelihood method and provide simulation studies to compare the proposed method with the currently mostly adopted method\, the Bayesian information criterion (BIC)\, demonstrating the effectiveness of the proposed marginal likelihood method. The proposed method is applied to single-molecule data and yields interesting scientific insights.\n\nBio: Yang Chen received her Ph.D. (2017) in Statistics from Harvard University and joined the University of Michigan as an Assistant Professor of Statistics and Research Assistant Professor at the Michigan Institute of Data Science (MIDAS).

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Distinguished Alumna 2018: A Conversation with Helen Foster
DESCRIPTION:Prof. Rebecca (Becky) Lange will talk with Helen Foster\, our 2018 Distinguished Alumna\, about Helen’s remarkable geological career and life.  Helen Foster obtained her Ph.D. from the University of Michigan in 1946.  She developed her passion for mapping unknown geological terrains as a graduate student in Wyoming\, and thoroughly enjoyed her time at Camp Davis the geological field station where the Department of Earth and Environmental Sciences teaches a wide variety of field courses.  After she received her Ph.D.\, she leapt at the opportunity to work for the U.S. Geological Survey in Japan\, during the U.S. military occupation immediately following the Second World War.  She spent nearly a decade working with and befriending several Japanese geologists while compiling geological maps of Japan and the Kurile Islands. On her return to the United States\, she continued her work with the U.S. Geological Survey\, and became deeply involved with creating the first geological maps of Alaska.  She was a pioneer in so many ways\, as an intrepid young woman in Japan\, and then as one among the first geologists to map the Alaskan wilderness\, which was without roads and so field work involved being dropped off by a float airplane on a lake and spending weeks mapping and camping before being picked up again or re-supplied.  Helen loved it!  Throughout her lengthy career she has supported the Department of Earth and Environmental Sciences - as an inspiration to our faculty and students\, as a member of the Department’s Alumni Advisory Board\, and as a generous donor. We will present an interview with Helen Foster recorded earlier this year.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:MEMS Workshop. Domesticating Dragomans: Affect\, Homosociality and Textual Circulations
DESCRIPTION:The chapter under consideration is from a book in progress about dragomans (diplomatic interpreters) in seventeenth-century Istanbul and explores the relationship between (homosocial) space and affect in the making of a dragoman corps. Through two case studies it examines how Venetian officials sought (and often failed) to cultivate dragomans’ heteronormative affective ties and loyal Venetian political subjectivity through the practice of extended residential apprenticeship in the Venetian embassy compound (bailate) and attended technologies of surveillance and controlled textual circulation. The two cases explored here\, of dragomans’ attempted unionization in 1660 and of an aborted love affair between a dragoman apprentice and the bailate barber in 1588\, suggest the competing ways in which dragomans and their Venetian employers attempted to control publicity about potentially scandalous affairs\, how they mobilized patronage networks that linked the bailate with Venetian metropolitan institutions and powerful patrons\, and how the archival traces from which these cases of \"misplaced\" affect are reconstructed themselves need to be situated in the context of evolving diplomatic protocol and Ottoman--as much as Venetian--social structures and sexual regimes.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Seminar Title: \"Carbonaceous nanoparticle and biological membrane - a molecular dynamic perspective\"
DESCRIPTION:Abstract: Nanoparticles have been widely utilized in many health-related fields\, such as drug delivery\, cancer therapy\, biolabeling\, and biosensors.  Studies on the molecular details of the interaction between nanoparticles and biological nanosystems are crucial for obtaining information on the mechanisms of the possible outcomes of these nanomaterials\, such as cytotoxicity\, biological accumulation\, and long-term effects.  In this talk\, we will introduce a recent model that we are developing to help understand and predict the interaction between carbonaceous nanoparticles and biological membrane based on the molecular structural information.  The model presents in detail how molecular properties of nanoparticles such as size\, shape and chemical properties affect the organization of the nanoparticles in the membrane\, as well how different components in the membrane affect the selectivity on nanoparticles.  This critical information is helpful for designing engineered nanoparticles that are biocompatible\, bioavailable for different environmental and biological applications.

SUMMARY:Performance:Arturo Sandoval
DESCRIPTION:A protégé of the legendary jazz master Dizzy Gillespie\, Arturo Sandoval was born in Artemisa\, a small town in the outskirts of Havana\, Cuba\, on November 6\, 1949\, just two years after Gillespie became the first musician to bring Latin influences into American Jazz. Arturo began studying classical trumpet at the age of twelve\, but it didn’t take him long to catch the excitement of the jazz world. He has since evolved into one of the world’s most acknowledged guardians of jazz trumpet and flugelhorn\, as well as a renowned classical artist\, pianist and composer. Arturo Sandoval reaches beyond the scope of mere effort. His struggles while in Cuba and since his defection have given him more energy and strength\, urging him to accomplish and surpass his childhood dreams.

DESCRIPTION:The brilliantly colored images in this exhibit were taken in the course of scientific research\, and are beautiful in their detail\, form and symmetry. For each one\, an accompanying explanation describes its significance. The subjects of the images are cells\, tissues and organs\, from a wide variety of biological sources (plants\, worms\, fruit flies\, fish\, mice and yes\, even human brain). The colors are added by investigators\, to allow them to see the otherwise transparent tissues. By looking at these microscopic images\, you will learn about research into normal embryonic development as well as cutting-edge investigations into diseases such as basal cell carcinoma\, bipolar disease\, epilepsy and cancer.

DESCRIPTION:This group show of jewelry and ornaments includes the work of Roger Martin\, who tackled the subject of a raven by relying on planes and shadow lines to imbue the surfaces of the bird with personality. Another one of the seven artists\, Lorraine Kolasa\, picked up the old fashioned art of tatting\, then cast tiny pieces of her handmade lace into sterling silver jewelry. Michael Nashef\, who spent half his life in war-torn Lebanon\, has created a series of innovative vessels and brooches. Other artists included in this exhibit are Kim Cridler\, Roger Smith\, Renee Zettle-Sterling and Ruth Taubman\, whose unmatched exuberance of color and 36 years of work and business innovation\, place her jewelry firmly on the national stage.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Organic Fiction: Acrylic on Canvas
DESCRIPTION:Hava Gurevich’s colorful abstractions feature botanical\, aquatic and microscopic motifs as she explores repeating patterns in nature. Blending images from the real world and her imagination\, Organic Fiction celebrates nature in all its beauty\, chaos and complexity. Hava Gurevich received a BFA in photography from U-M and an MFA in painting from Illinois State University. Her creative process begins with photographs and sketches of details in nature\, such as tree branches\, ice patterns\, twisted vines\, and delicate spring blossoms. These drawings contribute to her personal vocabulary of shapes and gestures\, and she often digitally combines them with older paintings to become starting points of new works.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Hineinu – Here We Are: An LGBTQ+ Jewish Photovoice Exhibit
DESCRIPTION:A same-sex Jewish marriage contract (Ketubah). A sign for gender inclusive bathrooms in a Jewish Community Center. A Christmas tree adorned with rainbow-colored ornaments and a Star of David topper. These are three of the 21 photos-with-narratives that constitute “Hineinu – Here We Are: An LGBTQ+ Jewish Photovoice Exhibit.” Combined with rich\, thought-provoking text\, these photos give insight into the varied experiences of local community members who are both Jewish and queer.\n\n“Photovoice” is the process of putting cameras in the hands of traditionally “voiceless” or marginalized community members to allow them to record\, reflect on\, and share their community’s strengths and concerns. Photovoice participants have the opportunity to capture their current experiences through pictures\, with the goal of sparking dialogue and action related to the themes depicted in the photos.\n\nAs you view this Photovoice exhibit\, we hope that you will consider what it means to be inclusive and welcoming\, and that you will continue to develop an awareness of the diversity of other people’s experiences both within and outside of the Jewish and LGBTQ+ communities.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Abstraction\, Color\, and Politics in the Early 1970s
DESCRIPTION:Can abstract art be about politics? In the early 1970s\, that question was hotly debated as artists\, critics\, and the public grappled with the relationship between art\, politics\, race\, and feminism. Many of those debates centered on bringing to light the roles that gender and race played in how “great modern art” was defined and assessed\, and on employing art to advance civil rights. Within this discourse\, abstraction had an especially fraught role. To many\, the decision by women artists and artists of color  to make abstract art seemed to represent a retreat from politics and protest: an abnegation of a commitment to civil rights and feminism. \"Abstraction\, Color\, and Politics in the Early 1970s\" presents large-scale work by four leading American artists—Helen Frankenthaler\, Sam Gilliam\, Al Loving\, and Louise Nevelson—who chose abstraction as a means of expression within the intense political climate of the early 1970s.\n\nLead support for \"Abstraction\, Color\, and Politics in the Early 1970s\" is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost\, Michigan Medicine\, the Richard and Rosann Noel Endowment Fund\, the Herbert W. and Susan L. Johe Endowment\, and the University of Michigan Institute for Research on Women and Gender. Additional generous support is provided by the Robert and Janet Miller Fund and the University of Michigan Department of Political Science.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Beyond Borders: Global Africa
DESCRIPTION:More than ever in the era of globalization\, ideas traverse geographic\, generational\, and cultural boundaries\, even as national borders seem to be closing. 'Beyond Borders: Global Africa' reflects on this moment by considering how Africa and its artists have been at the center of complex histories of encounter and exchange for centuries. Bringing together a dazzling array of works made in Africa\, Europe\, and the United States from the nineteenth to twenty-first century\, the exhibition demonstrates the international scope and reach of art from Africa and the African diaspora. It also explores issues such as slavery\, colonization\, migration\, racism\, and identity at play in the objects and their histories. Highlights include paintings\, photographs\, sculpture\, and installations by Kudzanai Chiurai\, Omar Victor Diop\, Wangechi Mutu\, and Serge Alain Nitegeka. The exhibition will be accompanied by a fully-illustrated publication\, the tenth in the UMMA Books series.\n\nLead support for 'Beyond Borders: Global Africa' is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost\, Michigan Medicine\, the National Endowment for the Arts\, and the University of Michigan Office of Research\, African Studies Center\, and Department of Afroamerican and African Studies. Additional generous support is provided by the University of Michigan CEW Frances and Sydney Lewis Visiting Leaders Fund and Susan Ullrich.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Have We Met? Dialogues on Memory and Desire
DESCRIPTION:Have We Met: Dialogues on Memory and Desire draws inspiration from Ann Arbor’s legacy of social movements (Anti-War Movement\, Civil Rights Movements) and experimental art practices (The Once Group) from the late-1950s to the 1970s as its point of departure. It brings together archival materials and reproductions from the University of Michigan’s Labadie Collection and the Bentley Library in conjunction with radical artworks by diverse\, multi-generational artists and designers whose works are deeply influenced by the ideas of freedom and self-determination\; re-writing the canonical accounts of history\; and building contemporary culture and solidarity through collective action.\n\nAt a time when the idea of citizenship in the United States is being deeply challenged and redefined through horrific occurrences of gun violence and police brutality towards racialized and queer civilians and refugees\, this exhibition asks what role art institutions can play in building inclusive and vibrant creative spaces the 21st Century. Have We Met? Dialogues on Memory and Desire retraces and learns from models of collectivity and organizing mobilized by artists\, designers\, and cultural producers in the past and present as a lens to understand the contemporary moment and re-imagine the future.  It explores the complex relationships and at times overlapping and contested concerns between contemporary art\, design\, and social justice that continually influence and inform one another.\n\nArtists: Rudolf Baranik\, Stephanie Dinkins\, Emory Douglas\, Brendan Fernandes\, Chitra Ganesh\, Carole Harris\, Maren Hassinger\, Al Loving\, Josh MacPhee\, Native Art Department International\, Michele Oka Doner\, Yoko Ono\, Kameelah Janan Rasheed\, Martha Rosler\, Buster Simpson\, Gregory Sholette\, Leni Sinclair\, Stephanie Syjuco\, Graem Whyte\, and Zafos Xagoraris. \n\nCurated by Srimoyee Mitra.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:New at UMMA: Life Magazine 1947 Homecoming Photographs
DESCRIPTION:In October 1947\, just two years after the end of World War II\, the popular weekly news magazine LIFE sent staff photographers Lisa Larsen and Ralph Morse to cover homecoming weekend at the University of Michigan. The subsequent article\, “Michigan Homecoming\,” which brought national attention to UM’s athletic program\, featured a seven-page spread with photographs of the campus during a much-anticipated football game between the number-one ranked Michigan Wolverines and the University of Minnesota’s Golden Gophers. This installation provides a unique opportunity to view twenty-one images of that weekend\, many of which were not published in the original article\, recently donated to UMMA by John and Susan Edwards Harvith. Considered alongside the article\, these photographs of fervent fans\, strolling couples\, alumni making their annual pilgrimage\, and the game itself present LIFE magazine’s view of a giddy post-war public enjoying a return to American pastimes.\n\nThese photographs were recently gifted to UMMA by John (AB '69\, JD '73) and Susan (MMP '73) Harvith.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Exhibition | Urban Biographies\, Ancient and Modern
DESCRIPTION:Human beings are political animals\, said the Greek philosopher Aristotle: animals that live in the “polis\,” the Greek word for city. Over two thousand years later\, we are still political animals\, and the study of ancient cities is of abiding interest\, for our perceptions of the urban centers of the past continue to exert a powerful hold on modern culture. \n\nThis exhibition showcases three Classical cities where the University of Michigan sponsors field projects: Gabii in Italy\, Olynthos in Greece\, and Notion in Turkey. The archaeologists excavating these cities\, in collaboration with students and faculty from U-M’s Taubman College of Architecture and Urban Planning\, are comparing their findings to projects of urban rebuilding in contemporary Detroit\, asking two main questions: How do contemporary archaeological methods facilitate the study of both ancient and modern cities? And how can the study of the past help illuminate the challenges and opportunities facing Detroit today? \n\nLead Curator: Christopher Ratté\nCo-Curators: Lisa Nevett\, Nicola Terrenato\, and Kathy Velikov\n\nVisit the exhibition website: http://exhibitions.kelsey.lsa.umich.edu/urban-biographies

He desires nothing more than to share his gift with others who feel the same intense adoration for music as he does.\n\nExecutive Chef Louis Goral will prepare a preview of the Blue LLama Jazz Club’s culinary offerings\, featuring gourmet shareables inspired by jazz music and his own culinary journey.
