SUMMARY:Exhibition:Written Culture of Christian Egypt: Coptic Manuscripts from the University of Michigan Collection
DESCRIPTION:The dry climate of the Egyptian desert offers an ideal environment for the preservation of ancient artifacts. As the sands of Egypt has preserved also numerous Coptic manuscripts\, the transmission of the literary heritage of Egyptian Christians can be documented quite well from its beginnings in the 4th century CE until its decline in the 12th-13th centuries CE\, when it was completely superseded by Arabic. This exhibit aims to show some of the hallmarks of Coptic literature using manuscripts kept in the Special Collections Research Center of the University of Michigan Library. Topics explored include the main Coptic dialects\; bilingualism in Egypt\; books read by the Egyptian monks\; and the works of Shenoute the Great\, the most important author of Coptic literature.\n\nThis exhibit is curated by Dr. Frank Feder and Dr. Alin Suciu from the Göttingen Academy of Sciences and Humanities. The exhibit and related programming are offered with support from the Department of Middle East Studies and the Kelsey Museum of Archaeology.\n\nJoin us for an opening lecture and reception at 4:30 p.m. on November 12 in the Hatcher Library Gallery.

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: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:Universal Declaration of Human Rights: Linocuts by Meredith Stern
DESCRIPTION:On December 10\, 1948\, in the aftermath of the devastation of World War II\, the United Nations General Assembly adopted the Universal Declaration of Human Rights as a roadmap to guarantee the rights of every individual everywhere. The complete Declaration is comprised of a Preamble and 30 Articles. In honor of the 60th anniversary of this document\, we are exhibiting 14 Articles in the form of illustrated prints by Meredith Stern. These contemporary prints are intended both to make people aware of this rights roadmap and to show its urgent relevance in our contemporary political moment.\n\nMeredith Stern is an artist currently based in Providence\, RI\, and a member of the Justseeds Artists’ Cooperative\, a decentralized network of 30 artists committed to social\, environmental\, and political engagement. Stern created a total of 28 sets of these linocut prints in 2017\, of which one is held in the Joseph A. Labadie Collection in the Special Collections Research Center.

SUMMARY:Performance:Selections from Anton Chekhov's Uncle Vanya
DESCRIPTION:Directed by Kate Mendeloff\n\nUncle Vanya\, drama in four acts by Anton Chekhov\, published in 1897 as Dyadya Vanya and was first produced in 1899 in Moscow. Considered one of Chekhov’s theatrical masterpieces\, the play is a study of aimlessness and hopelessness.\n\nIvan Voynitsky\, called Uncle Vanya\, is bitterly disappointed when he realizes that he has sacrificed and wasted his life managing the country estate and business affairs of his former brother-in-law\, Serebryakov\, who\, Vanya discovers\, will never be anything more than a pedantic second-rate academic. Sonya\, Serebryakov’s daughter and Vanya’s assistant\, silently endures her unrequited love for a local physician. Vanya attempts to shoot Serebryakov but misses\, and little changes. Neither of them can give up the work\, however meaningless\, to which they have devoted their lives. (From Britannica)

DESCRIPTION:In the mythical duchy of Pfennig Halbpfennig\, a troupe of actors plan to depose the Grand Duke\, Rudolph. By the dictates of an obscure local law\, Ludwig\, the troupe’s principal comedian\, is able to achieve this end simply by drawing a higher card in a ‘duel’ with his royal rival. However\, Ludwig is then required to assume not only the trappings of royalty\, but also all of its various obligations\, including contracted engagements to marry three different women – much to the chagrin of his fiancé\, Lisa. Hilarity ensues\, until at the last moment a startling discovery is made\, sending everything topsy-turvy all over again.

SUMMARY:Performance:Twelfth Night
DESCRIPTION:A romantic comedy by William Shakespeare\n\nDepartment of Theatre & Drama\nDirected by Daniel Cantor.\n\nShakespeare’s timeless romantic comedy\, Twelfth Night follows separated twins Sebastian and Viola. Finding herself shipwrecked off Illyria and believing her brother dead\, Viola disguises herself as a man and enters the service of Duke Orsino. The Duke believes himself in love with Olivia\, but Olivia is swiftly falling for the disguised Viola. In the meantime\, Viola is developing feelings for the Duke. When Sebastian (who is not dead) arrives in Illyria\, confusion reigns supreme. Unrequited love and mistaken identities abound as the foursome journey towards a joyous discovery. \n\nTwelfth Night\, written around 1601\, is one of Shakespeare’s richest plays. The show takes its title from the revelry following the twelfth day of Christmas\, bringing together romance and music in a tale full of folly (it is also the day the first production was performed). One of the most “modern” of Shakespeare’s plays\, the comedy’s themes about the fickleness of love\, the arbitrary nature of relationships\, and the re-thinking of sexuality all conspire with brilliant verse to push boundaries and look at the world upside down. Twelfth Night explores not only the nature of desire\, but how perception is clouded by desire\, and in turn\, explores the very nature of perception itself.  What is the disguise and what is the truth\, is never absolutely certain\, and often in the eye of the beholder (hence the play’s subtitle\, What You Will). As Feste\, the play’s clown says\, “that which is so is not so.” The production puts a twentieth-century twist on the story\, framing the action in a world inflected by the delightful sites and sounds of the 1930s.\n\n*Twelfth Night runs approximately three hours including one intermission.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Written Culture of Christian Egypt: Coptic Manuscripts from the University of Michigan Collection
DESCRIPTION:The dry climate of the Egyptian desert offers an ideal environment for the preservation of ancient artifacts. As the sands of Egypt has preserved also numerous Coptic manuscripts\, the transmission of the literary heritage of Egyptian Christians can be documented quite well from its beginnings in the 4th century CE until its decline in the 12th-13th centuries CE\, when it was completely superseded by Arabic. This exhibit aims to show some of the hallmarks of Coptic literature using manuscripts kept in the Special Collections Research Center of the University of Michigan Library. Topics explored include the main Coptic dialects\; bilingualism in Egypt\; books read by the Egyptian monks\; and the works of Shenoute the Great\, the most important author of Coptic literature.\n\nThis exhibit is curated by Dr. Frank Feder and Dr. Alin Suciu from the Göttingen Academy of Sciences and Humanities. The exhibit and related programming are offered with support from the Department of Middle East Studies and the Kelsey Museum of Archaeology.\n\nJoin us for an opening lecture and reception at 4:30 p.m. on November 12 in the Hatcher Library Gallery.

SUMMARY:Presentation:Clinical Science Brown Bag:
DESCRIPTION:How to capture a moment? : Momentary state-oriented approach to studying and intervening emotion regulation\n\n\nThere are several existing measures of emotion regulation which mainly rely upon retrospective\, trait-oriented self-report. However\, characteristics of emotion and emotion regulation are more likely to manifest in a specific context within a short period of time. In this presentation\, therefore\, I would like to introduce three studies focused on in-the-moment state-based approaches including (i) ERP investigation on attentional disengagement of individuals with suicidality\, (ii) ecological momentary assessment of mood of individuals with depression\, and (3) effectiveness of immediate intervention through mobile application.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Deluge
DESCRIPTION:Five Channel Video Installation\n13 Minutes\, 27 Seconds.\n\nDeluge is a culmination of Mendel’s ten years of work on the Drowning World project\, shooting video and stills in thirteen different countries. It depicts a variety of individual stories\, positioned with a synchronous global narrative in a way that is both personally intimate and deeply political. In all his years of responding to floods and making many journeys he has shot a vast archive of video footage\, which is fully activated in this presentation for the first time.\n\nAbout Gideon Mendel and his Drowning World project:\nGideon Mendel came of age as a photographer in South Africa in the 1980’s and identified strongly as a ‘struggle photographer’. This marked him and his subsequent career has been notable for his engagement with three of the crucial political and social issues that have faced his generation. These are the struggle against apartheid\, HIV/AIDS in Africa and Climate Change.\n\nA leading contemporary photographer\, Gideon Mendel's intimate style of image making and long-term commitment to projects has earned him international recognition and many awards. He was shortlisted for the Prix Pictet Prize 2015 and recently has won both the inaugural Jackson Pollock Prize for Creativity and the Greenpeace Photo Award 2016.\n\nHis on-going project ‘Drowning World\, explores the human dimension of climate change by focusing on floods across geographical and cultural boundaries. By highlighting the personal impact of flooding he evokes our vulnerability to global warming questioning our sense of stability in the world.\n\nThe work began in 2007\, when Mendel photographed floods in the UK and in India within weeks of each other. He was deeply struck by the contrasting impact of these events\, and the shared experiences of those affected.\n\nSince then he has endeavoured to travel to flood zones around the world visiting Haiti (2008)\, Pakistan (2010)\, Australia (2011)\, Thailand (2011)\, Nigeria (2012)\, Germany (2013)\, The Philippines (2013)\, The UK (2014)\, India (2014)\, Brazil (2015)\, Bangladesh (2015)\, the USA (2015 and 2017) and France (2016 and 2018).\n\nAs the work progressed photographing floods became both a literal and allegorical means of documenting the tension between the personal and the global effects of climate change. Each location added has intensified the narrative impact of the endeavour.\n\nDrowning World now consists of four parallel and connected narrative elements: Submerged Portraits\, Flood Lines\, Watermarks\, and Deluge.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Social\, Behavioral & Experimental Economics (SBEE): Misattribution of Reference Dependence: Theory and Experiments
DESCRIPTION:Abstract:\n\nIn this paper\, we use a pair of experiments to show that workers form biased beliefs about a novel real-effort task because they fail to retrospectively account for sensations of positive and negative surprise. In our baseline experiment\, participants learned from experience about one of two unfamiliar tasks\, one more onerous than the other. Some participants were assigned their task by chance just prior to working\, while others knew in advance which task they would face. In a second session conducted hours later\, we elicited those participants' willingness to work at that same task. Relative to participants who knew with certainty which task they would face\, participants assigned to the less-onerous task by chance were more willing to work\, while participants assigned to the more-onerous task by chance were less willing to work. These qualitative results\, and the fact that differences in willingness to work remained hours after initial impressions were formed\, are consistent with the idea that participants mistakenly attributed sensations of positive or negative surprise to the effort cost of their assigned task.

SUMMARY:Other:Developmental Brown Bag
DESCRIPTION:Ka Ip\n\nTitle: Are children’s neurobiological systems of stress sensitive to culture?\nAbstract:Human beliefs\, practices and behaviors are shaped by culture. Evolutionary theories suggest that biology and culture co-evolved\, such that a symbiotic relationship exists between biology and culture. In order to adapt to the cultural environment\, throughout development\, human biology may have to become more sensitive to contexts that are most salient (or threatening) to one’s culture. Can we observe such a neurobiological sensitivity to cultural contexts in young children? Through assessments of preschoolers in the US\, China and Japan\, I will determine whether children’s neurobiological systems of stress are differentially sensitive to cultural contexts. By using three different stress paradigms designed to induce challenges that are relevant to their corresponding cultural contexts\, I will examine whether children’s 4-year-old children’s salivary cortisol reactivity is more reactive to psychosocial stressors that are salient in their cultures. These findings are discussed as part of understanding how culture may shape children’s regulation at different levels of processing (emotion expressions\, cortisol\, motor activity). \nBio: Ka is a 5th year PhD student in developmental psychology and clinical science. His research focuses on examining the developmental\, neurobiological and cultural processes underlying early self-regulation.\n\nNick Waters\n\nTitle: Socioeconomic Differences in Kindergartners’ Performance Monitoring: An ERP Investigation\nAbstract: Extensive research has documented relations between socioeconomic status (SES)—comprised of parent educational attainment\, occupation\, and family income—and the development of children’s self-regulation skills. However\, only recently have researchers begun investigating the neural mechanisms underlying these relations. One facet of self-regulation—performance monitoring—can be indexed at the level of electrophysiological activity and has demonstrated measurement reliability in young children. The goal of this study was to investigate relations between components of SES and event-related potentials (ERPs) associated with performance monitoring\, including the error-related negativity (ERN) and error positivity (Pe)\, measured in a sample of kindergarten children during a child friendly Go/No-Go task. Results indicated that family income-to-needs predicted the magnitude of children’s Pe responses\, whereas neither indicator of SES predicted the magnitude of the ERN. Given the Pe reflects the awareness of committing an error\, affective responses to erring\, and processes related to adaptive performance following mistake responses\, these results provoke future investigation as to whether the Pe may be a potential mechanism linking SES to performance differences in assessments of children’s self-regulation.\nBio: Nick is a third-year Ph.D. candidate working with Pam Davis-Kean\, Fred Morrison and\, as a member of the developmental training grant\, Bill Gehring. He received his undergraduate degree in psychology from the University of Michigan. His research focuses on understanding the role of contextual factors\, including socioeconomic status and parenting\, in shaping the development of children’s executive functioning and academic skills.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Quantitative Biology Seminar | Disruption of Excitation/Inhibition Balance in Cortical Neuronal Networks
DESCRIPTION:Cortical neuron spiking activity is broadly classified as temporally irregular and asynchronous. Model networks with a balance between large recurrent excitation and inhibition capture these two features\, and are a popular framework relating circuit structure and network dynamics\, though are traditionally restricted to a single attractor. We analyze paired whole cell voltage-clamp recordings from spontaneously active neurons in mouse auditory cortex slices (Graupner & Reyes\, 2013) showing a network where correlated excitation and inhibition effectively cancel\, except for intermittent periods when the network shows a macroscopic synchronous event.  These data suggest that while the core mechanics of balanced activity are important\, we require new theories capturing these brief but powerful periods when balance fails.   Recent work by Mongillo et.al. (2012) showed that balanced networks with short-term synaptic plasticity can depart from strict linear dynamics. We extend this model by incorporating finite network size\, introducing strong nonlinearities in the firing rate dynamics and allowing finite size induced noise to elicit large scale\, yet infrequent\, synchronous events. We identify core requirements for system size and network plasticity to capture the transient synchronous activity observed in our experimental data set. Our model properly mediates between the asynchrony of balanced activity and the tendency for strong recurrence to promote macroscopic population dynamics.\n

The complete Declaration is comprised of a Preamble and 30 Articles. In honor of the 60th anniversary of this document\, we are exhibiting 14 Articles in the form of illustrated prints by Meredith Stern. These contemporary prints are intended both to make people aware of this rights roadmap and to show its urgent relevance in our contemporary political moment.\n\nMeredith Stern is an artist currently based in Providence\, RI\, and a member of the Justseeds Artists’ Cooperative\, a decentralized network of 30 artists committed to social\, environmental\, and political engagement. Stern created a total of 28 sets of these linocut prints in 2017\, of which one is held in the Joseph A. Labadie Collection in the Special Collections Research Center.

SUMMARY:Presentation:Velocity Selective Arterial Spin Labeling Perfusion Imaging at 3T and 7T
DESCRIPTION:Purpose: Hemodynamic parameters\, such as perfusion\, are key indicators of organ function.  Arterial Spin Labeling (ASL) allows us to perform perfusion measurements without injection of exogenous tracers. The Purpose of this thesis is to implement and improve a Fourier-Transform based Velocity Selective Inversion (FT-VSI) pulse train for Velocity-Selective Arterial Spin Labeling (VSASL) on a 7 T Scanner.  Additionally\, to perform Abdominal perfusion Imaging using VSASL on a 3T Scanner. \n\n \n\nMethods: The FT-VSI was calibrated and simulated to check for velocity profiles. It's sensitivities to B0/B1 inhomogeneity and gradient imperfections such as eddy currents were evaluated through phantom studies. A flow phantom was used to test for inversion efficiency . At 3T\, a velocity selective saturation(VSS) pulse was used to image Kidney and Spinal Cord blood perfusion. The tracer kinetic properties of VSS pulses for renal and spinal cord perfusion were characterized.\n\n \n\nResults: Phantom results of the proposed FT-VSI pulse train demonstrated high correlation to B0/B1 field inhomogeneity. A high T2* decay was observed at 7T. Through Simulations\, the FT-VSI was improved for higher velocity selectivity and shorter length of pulse to counteract this decay. Eddy current effects were highly controllable by introducing gaps between consecutive gradient pulses. At 3T\, ASL images collected at various labeling delays after the VSS pulse. ASL values such as blood volume(BV)\, Blood Flow(BF)\, Bolus Arterial Transit time (ATT) and bolus width were estimated by fitting a two compartment models. The Kidney perfusion values (Medulla and cortex) were in agreement with literature values. Although Lower perfusion and blood volume in the spinal cord resulted in poor fits\, Spinal cord flow noticeably did not experience a delay in the label arrival\n\n \n\nConclusion: A FT-VSI pulse train was demonstrated on a 7T to be a suitable labeling module for VSASL with robustness of velocity selective profile to gradient imperfections but not to B0/B1 field inhomogeneity. Application of velocity selective pulses for abdominal imaging were demonstrated at 3T.\n\n\nChair: Dr. Luis Hernandez-Garcia

SUMMARY:Other:Bringing Biochemistry into the Genomic Era
DESCRIPTION:                                                High-throughput and quantitative biochemical approaches will be required to develop predictive models of cell function and regulation\, and to understand systems as complex as enzymes. I will describe two such approaches and the insights attained to date. RNA-MaP developed by the Greenleaf lab at Stanford allows us to determine thermodynamic and kinetic rules for RNA binding by RNA binding proteins\, and provides testable models for cellular RNA/protein interactions and additional biophysical and evolutionary insights. HT-MEK (High-throughput Mechanistic Enzyme Kinetics)\, a new microfluidics methodology developed by the Fordyce lab at Stanford\, allows us to obtain quantitative kinetic and thermodynamic data for thousands of enzyme variants\, in a small fraction of the time and at a minute fraction of the cost of traditional biochemical approaches. Our initial studies on an Alkaline Phosphatase superfamily member provide the first comprehensive functional landscape for an enzyme\, delineating function throughout an enzyme scaffold. Studies on this and additional systems are needed to understand enzyme function\, to reveal the action of drugs and allosteric effectors\, and to develop rules to engineer new enzymes and pathways at will. Most generally\, quantitative\, high-throughput biochemical methodologies will usher in a post-genomic era in biology that is grounded in biochemical understanding and powered by quantitative physical models.\n                                                \n                       \n                                                \n                       \n                        \nDaniel Herschlag (Stanford University)

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:HEP-Astro Seminar | Searching for Dark Matter with Paleo-Detectors 
DESCRIPTION:A large experimental program is underway to extend the sensitivity of direct detection experiments\, searching for the interaction of Dark Matter with nuclei\, down to the neutrino floor. However\, such experiments are becoming increasingly difficult and costly due to the large target masses and exquisite background rejection needed for the necessary improvements in sensitivity. We investigate an alternative approach to the detection of Dark Matter-nucleon interactions: Searching for the persistent traces left by Dark Matter scattering in ancient minerals obtained from much deeper than current underground laboratories. We estimate the sensitivity of paleo-detectors\, which extends far beyond current upper limits for a wide range of Dark Matter masses.\n

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:IOE 813 Seminar: Mehmet A. Begen
DESCRIPTION:Home health care (HHC) has become popular and attracted substantial attention from researchers and practitioners due to its major advantages over traditional ways of treatment. One of the primary advantages of HHC is the quality of care. In HHC\, a patient receives one-on-one attention\, whereas in a typical health unit\, a single staff is usually responsible for caring multiple patients. Another advantage of HHC is the cost. For example\, cost to care terminally ill patients in an acute-care hospital is estimated to be 40% more expensive than cost of the same care in a hospital-based palliative-care unit and over 10 times more expensive than HHC. In 2012\, over 2.2 million Canadians received some levels of HHC services. HHC has become a pressing issue for healthcare policy makers both in Canada and around the world\, especially with an aging population. Providing a HHC service comes with many challenges. For example\, caregivers travel times are significant as reports show that caregivers in the US have travelled twice the distance of UPS delivery drivers in 2010. One of the biggest challenges in HHC is to match caregivers and patients and come up with a good scheduled that is feasible\, cost efficient and acceptable for medial and patient needs. One way to overcome these challenges is to use mathematical modelling and generate least costly schedules that will determine caregiver to patient assignments and routing of caregivers by considering constraints of the system. In this talk\, we will describe the challenges and present of some of our projects in HHC scheduling.\n\nThis talk is based on joint works with Bahman Naderi\, Gregory S. Zaric and Vahid Roshanaei.\n\nMehmet A. Begen is an associate professor of management science in the Ivey Business School at the Western University. Besides Ivey\, he is cross-appointed at the departments of Statistical & Actuarial Sciences and Epidemiology & Biostatistics at the Western. Mehmet's research interests are management science/analytics applications\, data-driven approaches and in particular scheduling and operations management in healthcare. He is a Certified Analytics Professional (CAP)\, worked in management consulting before his PhD studies and is a recipient of Canadian Operational Research Society (CORS) Practice Prize. Mehmet is currently serving as the president of CORS and visiting Ross School of Business at the University of Michigan for his sabbatical.\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:Exhibition:Written Culture of Christian Egypt: Coptic Manuscripts from the University of Michigan Collection
DESCRIPTION:The dry climate of the Egyptian desert offers an ideal environment for the preservation of ancient artifacts. As the sands of Egypt has preserved also numerous Coptic manuscripts\, the transmission of the literary heritage of Egyptian Christians can be documented quite well from its beginnings in the 4th century CE until its decline in the 12th-13th centuries CE\, when it was completely superseded by Arabic. This exhibit aims to show some of the hallmarks of Coptic literature using manuscripts kept in the Special Collections Research Center of the University of Michigan Library. Topics explored include the main Coptic dialects\; bilingualism in Egypt\; books read by the Egyptian monks\; and the works of Shenoute the Great\, the most important author of Coptic literature.\n\nThis exhibit is curated by Dr. Frank Feder and Dr. Alin Suciu from the Göttingen Academy of Sciences and Humanities. The exhibit and related programming are offered with support from the Department of Middle East Studies and the Kelsey Museum of Archaeology.\n\nJoin us for an opening lecture and reception at 4:30 p.m. on November 12 in the Hatcher Library Gallery.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Deluge
DESCRIPTION:Five Channel Video Installation\n13 Minutes\, 27 Seconds.\n\nDeluge is a culmination of Mendel’s ten years of work on the Drowning World project\, shooting video and stills in thirteen different countries. It depicts a variety of individual stories\, positioned with a synchronous global narrative in a way that is both personally intimate and deeply political. In all his years of responding to floods and making many journeys he has shot a vast archive of video footage\, which is fully activated in this presentation for the first time.\n\nAbout Gideon Mendel and his Drowning World project:\nGideon Mendel came of age as a photographer in South Africa in the 1980’s and identified strongly as a ‘struggle photographer’. This marked him and his subsequent career has been notable for his engagement with three of the crucial political and social issues that have faced his generation. These are the struggle against apartheid\, HIV/AIDS in Africa and Climate Change.\n\nA leading contemporary photographer\, Gideon Mendel's intimate style of image making and long-term commitment to projects has earned him international recognition and many awards. He was shortlisted for the Prix Pictet Prize 2015 and recently has won both the inaugural Jackson Pollock Prize for Creativity and the Greenpeace Photo Award 2016.\n\nHis on-going project ‘Drowning World\, explores the human dimension of climate change by focusing on floods across geographical and cultural boundaries. By highlighting the personal impact of flooding he evokes our vulnerability to global warming questioning our sense of stability in the world.\n\nThe work began in 2007\, when Mendel photographed floods in the UK and in India within weeks of each other. He was deeply struck by the contrasting impact of these events\, and the shared experiences of those affected.\n\nSince then he has endeavoured to travel to flood zones around the world visiting Haiti (2008)\, Pakistan (2010)\, Australia (2011)\, Thailand (2011)\, Nigeria (2012)\, Germany (2013)\, The Philippines (2013)\, The UK (2014)\, India (2014)\, Brazil (2015)\, Bangladesh (2015)\, the USA (2015 and 2017) and France (2016 and 2018).\n\nAs the work progressed photographing floods became both a literal and allegorical means of documenting the tension between the personal and the global effects of climate change. Each location added has intensified the narrative impact of the endeavour.\n\nDrowning World now consists of four parallel and connected narrative elements: Submerged Portraits\, Flood Lines\, Watermarks\, and Deluge.

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:Presentation:PhD Defense: Jennifer Arthur
DESCRIPTION:Title: Subcritical Neutron Multiplication Inference Measurements for Nuclear Data and Computational Methods Validation\n\nCo-Chair: Prof. Sara Pozzi\nCo-Chair: Dr. Rian Bahran\n\nABSTRACT: Subcritical measurements have been continually performed since the 1940s\, and simulation capabilities were developed alongside the measurements for comparison purposes. The accuracy of predictive radiation transport simulations are limited by the accuracy of the Monte Carlo simulation codes and underlying nuclear data. A subcritical benchmark measurement is a high-quality subcritical measurement in which all physical parameters and uncertainties are well characterized to a high degree of accuracy\, and which is peer reviewed and compiled with other benchmark experiments into a database such as the International Criticality Safety Benchmark Evaluation Project (ICSBEP). Benchmark measurements are therefore trusted to provide accurate comparisons between experimental and simulated data\, for nuclear data and radiation transport code validation purposes. Critical benchmarks are plentiful\, but are not sensitive to correlated neutron parameters in the way that the handful of existing subcritical benchmarks are. This work demonstrates how we can apply subcritical neutron multiplication measurements and simulations to better validate relevant nuclear data and radiation transport computational methods currently used for nuclear nonproliferation and safety applications. The work encompasses the entire process of an advanced subcritical measurement\, from the earliest planning stages to the final analysis and comparison to simulated results. Both the Critical and Subcritical 0-Power Experiment at Rensselaer (CaSPER) measurement\, a novel advanced subcritical measurement\, and the SCRαP measurement\, a state-of-the-art subcritical benchmark measurement\, campaigns have been completed. Simulations of LANL ICSBEP benchmark-quality reflected plutonium (BeRP) ball subcritical measurements have been conducted using various radiation transport codes that take into account the correlated physics of fission neutrons. Comparisons of both the results and the underlying neutron multiplicity models applied by the codes have been investigated\, as well as new methods of applying comparisons of these subcritical neutron multiplication inference measurements and the associated simulations to nuclear data and computational methods validation. Optimization algorithm frameworks have been applied to both nuclear data evaluation based on subcritical neutron multiplication inference benchmarks\, and the design of subcritical neutron multiplication inference benchmarks.

SUMMARY:Presentation:Therapeutic benefit of scaffolds that capture metastatic tumor cells in vivo
DESCRIPTION:For most cancers\, the formation of distant metastasis is the point at which clinical treatment shifts from curative intent to extending progression free survival. Physicians are currently unable to diagnose metastasis until disseminated tumor cells affect the function of a target organ as a secondary tumor. This dissertation describes a novel approach where implantable biomaterial scaffolds are used to recruit metastatic tumor cells for early detection prior to colonization of solid organs. This recruitment of tumor cells to a defined site can not only serve as a platform for detection\, but can also have therapeutic effects and be used as a platform to study metastatic processes. This dissertation describes work in each of these three areas including using an implantable biomaterial scaffold for early detection\, therapeutic benefit\, and a platform to study metastasis. The therapeutic benefit of scaffolds was demonstrated by scaffold implantation significantly enhancing disease-free survival in a murine model of triple negative breast cancer. Myeloid derived suppressor cells were the key population of immune cells whose capture at the scaffold and reduction in the spleen and primary tumor lead to enhanced survival. In an effort to probe the contributions of various immune cell types to the formation and maintenance of the pre-metastatic and metastatic niche in vivo\, a gene delivery approach was utilized to alter the immune microenvironment of the scaffold and investigate the recruitment of tumor cells\, finding reduced immune and tumor cell recruitment with IL-10 delivery and developing a model of tumor cell recruitment that is dependent upon the proportion of each immune cell type in the niche. Additional efforts to use the scaffold to study metastasis included studying scaffold captured tumor cells relative to tumor cells derived from other locations. Scaffold captured tumor cells were a highly aggressive population of metastatic tumor cells similar to those found in a metastatic lung\, underscoring the use of the scaffold as a sampling location for metastatic disease that is reflective of tumor cell phenotype in solid organs. Next\, biomaterial scaffolds were also validated in transgenic models of both breast and pancreatic cancer to identify immune dysregulation as a function of tumor burden\, recruit tumor cells\, and to reduce tumor burden. Finally\, non-invasive ultrasound imaging and subsequent spectral analysis techniques were applied to identify changes in the scaffold associated with tumor burden and tumor cell recruitment. Taken together\, this body of work supports that the implantable biomaterial scaffold technology provides a robust and novel approach for the early detection of metastatic disease in both breast and pancreatic cancer\, therapy to divert both pre-metastatic niche forming immune cells and tumor cells themselves to an ectopic site and away from solid organs\, and as a platform to study mechanisms of the pre-metastatic niche and metastasis.\n\nChair: Dr. Lonnie Shea

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:Presentation:Biopsychology Colloquium
DESCRIPTION:The costs and benefits of cognitive control and motivation: the curious case of choking under pressure\n\n“Don’t overthink it!  Just do it!”  These phrases are commonly uttered to skilled individuals just before a performance.  Many people have the intuition that exerting too much control over well-learned actions can be harmful\, especially when under pressure to perform.  This effect can be demonstrated experimentally by manipulating participants’ attentional focus and/or inducing performance pressure via monetary incentives.  At the same time\, most day-to-day activities clearly benefit from goal-directed cognitive control and enhanced motivation. Further\, training regimes and coaching often make use of explicit\, reflective instruction to augment performance.  How do the mechanisms of cognitive control and motivation both support and potentially hamper the activity of neural systems needed for successful performance?  This question is explored in a variety of studies using functional neuroimaging\, non-invasive brain stimulation\, behavioral studies\, and computational modeling.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:LRCCS Noon Lecture Series | Chairman Mao’s Children and China’s Difficult Past: Generation\, Class\, and Memory
DESCRIPTION:In the 1960s and 1970s\, the Chinese government sent about 17 million secondary school graduates (the “educated youth” or “zhiqing”) to villages\, state farms\, and military corps\, to achieve some practical and ideological goals. The \"send-down\" program\, however\, failed dismally and had detrimental impacts on the zhiqing generation’s life courses. Despite its failure\, the zhiqing’s memory of their sent-down years is a mixture of grievance\, resentment\, self-congratulation\, nostalgia\, and heroism. Drawing on various data collected through interviews\, ethnography\, archival research\, and textual analysis (2013-2018)\, Professor Xu examines their memory to explore the mentality and political views of this generation of “Chairman Mao’s children\,” who have inherited the legacy of the Mao years and have to reconcile it with the sea changes in the post-Mao society\, and theorize the relations between generation\, class\, and memory. \n    \n   Bin Xu is an Assistant Professor in the Department of Sociology at Emory University. His research interests lie at the intersection of politics and culture.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Universal Declaration of Human Rights: Linocuts by Meredith Stern
DESCRIPTION:On December 10\, 1948\, in the aftermath of the devastation of World War II\, the United Nations General Assembly adopted the Universal Declaration of Human Rights as a roadmap to guarantee the rights of every individual everywhere. The complete Declaration is comprised of a Preamble and 30 Articles. In honor of the 60th anniversary of this document\, we are exhibiting 14 Articles in the form of illustrated prints by Meredith Stern. These contemporary prints are intended both to make people aware of this rights roadmap and to show its urgent relevance in our contemporary political moment.\n\nMeredith Stern is an artist currently based in Providence\, RI\, and a member of the Justseeds Artists’ Cooperative\, a decentralized network of 30 artists committed to social\, environmental\, and political engagement. Stern created a total of 28 sets of these linocut prints in 2017\, of which one is held in the Joseph A. Labadie Collection in the Special Collections Research Center.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:ChE Seminar Series: Neel Joshi
DESCRIPTION:Harvard University\nSchool of Engineering and Applied Sciences\nWyss Institute for Biologically Inspired Engineering\n\nASTRACT\n\n\"Biologically fabricated materials composed of engineered biofilm matrix proteins\"\n\nThe intersection between synthetic biology and materials science is an under explored area with great potential to positively affect our daily lives\, with applications ranging from manufacturing to medicine. My group is interested in harnessing the biosynthetic potential of microbes\, not only as factories for the production of raw materials\, but as fabrication plants that can orchestrate the assembly of complex functional materials. We call this approach “biologically fabricated materials”\, a process whose goal is to genetically program microbes to assemble materials from protein-based building blocks without the need for time consuming and expensive purification protocols or specialized equipment. Accordingly\, we have developed Biofilm Integrated Nanofiber Display (BIND)\, which relies on the biologically directed assembly of biofilm matrix proteins of the curli system in E. coli. We demonstrate that bacterial cells can be programmed to synthesize a range of functional materials with straightforward genetic engineering techniques. The resulting materials are highly customizable and easy to fabricate\, and we are investigating their use for practical uses ranging from bioremediation to engineered therapeutic probiotics. \n\nBIO\nNeel Joshi is an Associate Professor of Biological Engineering at the Harvard’s School of Engineering and Applied Sciences and also a Core Faculty member at the Wyss Institute for Biologically Inspired Engineering. He completed his PhD at UC Berkeley in the lab of Matt Francis and a postdoc at Boston University in the lab of Mark Grinstaff before starting a position at Harvard. He is broadly interested in topics related to biologically inspired materials\, protein engineering\, self-assembly\, and biointerfaces. His group works at the intersection of biomaterials science and synthetic biology. Recent projects in the group have focused on repurposing bacterial biofilms and their matrix proteins for biotechnological and biomedical applications.

SUMMARY:Other:Chemistry Under Extreme Pressures
DESCRIPTION:                                                Pressure is a fundamental thermodynamic variable that spans roughly 50 orders of magnitude throughout the universe\, yet practically all of our chemical intuition is based upon results obtained near atmospheric conditions. At pressures on the order of millions of atmospheres—the kind found deep within our planet—elemental properties that we consider fundamental become categorically altered. For example\, atomic volumes drop sharply\, valence orbital energies can fall below those of core orbitals\, and electronegativities drift from their tabulated ambient pressure values. Even at relatively modest pressures of ~10\,000–100\,000 atm\, which are now readily accessible in the laboratory\, these effects can lead to surprising new chemical bonding\, structures\, and properties\, opening up a new frontier for chemical exploration. In this talk\, I will show how we have harnessed pressure to: (i) exert thermodynamic control to synthesize novel binary bismuth intermetallic compounds that are impossible to synthesize using traditional methods\; and (ii) determine chemically-pure structure–function correlations in jarosite\, a magnetically-frustrated mineral.                        \n                       \n                                                \n                       \n                        \nJames Walsh\, PhD (Northwestern University)

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:CM/AMO Seminar | Single-particle Theory of Optical Scattering from Atomic Clusters
DESCRIPTION:We have recently demonstrated that a dense ensemble of two-level atoms driven by an electromagnetic field can be modelled by an effective single quantum system that has a time-varying decoherence rate [1].  This model compares very well to large-scale\, mean-field simulations of the Maxwell-Lindblad equations for a cluster of approximately 4000 atoms.  Our effective single particle theory provides a way to model optical interactions in clusters in which computational time can be reduced\, and also a model in which the underlying physical processes involved in the system's evolution are much easier to understand.   We use this theory to provide an explanation for the results of scattering experiments [2]\, in which high-intensity\, short-duration\, electromagnetic pulses were scattered off dielectric liquids such as water and carbon tetrachloride\, and produced depolarized emission patterns.\n\n[1] C.

SUMMARY:Presentation:Private Equity \"Bake-Off\" Competition
DESCRIPTION:Nine University of Michigan student teams will square off against each other during the annual private equity “battle of the pitches\,” held by the Center for Venture Capital and Private Equity Finance\, or CVP\, at the Ross School of Business. \nOnly two teams will advance to the “Bake-off” semifinals\, where they will have a shot at winning this year’s Alan Gelband Private Equity Award and $10\,000 in prize money. \nThe event will be held in the Ross School’s Blau Colloquium\, beginning at 4 p.m.\, and is open to members and friends of the U-M student\, faculty and alumni community.\n\nThe 11th annual Private Equity “Bake-off” competition serves as the capstone event for MBA and U-M graduate students enrolled in Professor David J. Brophy’s Private Equity Finance course. \nFor this highly anticipated interclass challenge\, each student team will present a detailed proposal for a private-equity takeover of an existing public company. A panel of judges composed of private equity investors and investment practitioners will rank the nine teams by the quality\, comprehensiveness and attractiveness (in terms of projected return on investment) of their public-to-private buyout pitches. Then the judges will narrow the competitive field to two semi-finalists. \nDuring the “Bake-off\,” the Blau Colloquium audience of students\, alumni and sponsors will cast popular votes for the semifinalist team with the best buyout pitch. The winner will receive the Alan Gelband Private Equity Award and take home $7\,500 in prize money. The runner-up will receive $2\,500.\n“Alan Gelband\, an alum and great friend of U-M Ross\, joins us in facilitating student access to opportunities in the private equity and alternative investment field\,” Professor Brophy says. “Graduates of this and other Center for Venture Capital and Private Equity Finance (CVP) courses and competitions are now private equity fund leaders globally and providing continued support for our programs and conferences.” \nAt the beginning of the fall term\, Professor Brophy assigned the nine student teams to select and evaluate a middle-market public company for a possible “model” private-equity acquisition. The students used publicly available financial records to assess the company’s management\, revenue\, profits and market position\, and subsequently to project the estimated return on investment for private equity investors. Based on this extensive information gathering and financial analysis\, each team formulated a buyout pitch for the target company it had chosen.\nAlan Gelband\, BBA ’65\, MBA ’67\, the benefactor for the annual Private Equity Award\, says the public-to-private buyout competition serves both as a learning tool for students and a talent pipeline for the PE industry. \n“This is an important exercise for anyone who wants to get into private equity\, which is a leader of business evolution today\,” says Gelband\, the founder and managing director at Gelband & Co. investment banking.\nOther Ross and CVP alumni and regional private equity investors who volunteer as judges also play a formative role during the annual Bake-off competition by providing constructive feedback on the teams’ buyout pitches and suggesting ways to strengthen their written and oral presentations. This year’s roster of 12 judges includes investors from regional and national private equity firms.

DESCRIPTION:Oriol Sans\, conductor. \n\nThe UPO performs Jean Sibelius’s Symphony No. 5\, probably the composer’s most affirmative musical utterance. The famous “Swan Hymn\,” a theme inspired by the vision of 16 swans taking off over the water\, pervades the last movement and culminates in a triumphal and unexpected ending. The symphony will conclude the evening’s concert with the University Choir performing Claude Debussy’s Nocturnes in the composer’s own revision that only increased its enchantingly foggy and delicate character. The program opens with Beethoven’s fourth and final attempt at an overture for his only opera\, Fidelio. \n\nPROGRAM: Beethoven- Fidelio Overture\; Debussy-Nocturnes\; Sibelius- Symphony No. 5

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Written Culture of Christian Egypt: Coptic Manuscripts from the University of Michigan Collection
DESCRIPTION:The dry climate of the Egyptian desert offers an ideal environment for the preservation of ancient artifacts. As the sands of Egypt has preserved also numerous Coptic manuscripts\, the transmission of the literary heritage of Egyptian Christians can be documented quite well from its beginnings in the 4th century CE until its decline in the 12th-13th centuries CE\, when it was completely superseded by Arabic. This exhibit aims to show some of the hallmarks of Coptic literature using manuscripts kept in the Special Collections Research Center of the University of Michigan Library. Topics explored include the main Coptic dialects\; bilingualism in Egypt\; books read by the Egyptian monks\; and the works of Shenoute the Great\, the most important author of Coptic literature.\n\nThis exhibit is curated by Dr. Frank Feder and Dr. Alin Suciu from the Göttingen Academy of Sciences and Humanities. The exhibit and related programming are offered with support from the Department of Middle East Studies and the Kelsey Museum of Archaeology.\n\nJoin us for an opening lecture and reception at 4:30 p.m. on November 12 in the Hatcher Library Gallery.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Deluge
DESCRIPTION:Five Channel Video Installation\n13 Minutes\, 27 Seconds.\n\nDeluge is a culmination of Mendel’s ten years of work on the Drowning World project\, shooting video and stills in thirteen different countries. It depicts a variety of individual stories\, positioned with a synchronous global narrative in a way that is both personally intimate and deeply political. In all his years of responding to floods and making many journeys he has shot a vast archive of video footage\, which is fully activated in this presentation for the first time.\n\nAbout Gideon Mendel and his Drowning World project:\nGideon Mendel came of age as a photographer in South Africa in the 1980’s and identified strongly as a ‘struggle photographer’. This marked him and his subsequent career has been notable for his engagement with three of the crucial political and social issues that have faced his generation. These are the struggle against apartheid\, HIV/AIDS in Africa and Climate Change.\n\nA leading contemporary photographer\, Gideon Mendel's intimate style of image making and long-term commitment to projects has earned him international recognition and many awards. He was shortlisted for the Prix Pictet Prize 2015 and recently has won both the inaugural Jackson Pollock Prize for Creativity and the Greenpeace Photo Award 2016.\n\nHis on-going project ‘Drowning World\, explores the human dimension of climate change by focusing on floods across geographical and cultural boundaries. By highlighting the personal impact of flooding he evokes our vulnerability to global warming questioning our sense of stability in the world.\n\nThe work began in 2007\, when Mendel photographed floods in the UK and in India within weeks of each other. He was deeply struck by the contrasting impact of these events\, and the shared experiences of those affected.\n\nSince then he has endeavoured to travel to flood zones around the world visiting Haiti (2008)\, Pakistan (2010)\, Australia (2011)\, Thailand (2011)\, Nigeria (2012)\, Germany (2013)\, The Philippines (2013)\, The UK (2014)\, India (2014)\, Brazil (2015)\, Bangladesh (2015)\, the USA (2015 and 2017) and France (2016 and 2018).\n\nAs the work progressed photographing floods became both a literal and allegorical means of documenting the tension between the personal and the global effects of climate change. Each location added has intensified the narrative impact of the endeavour.\n\nDrowning World now consists of four parallel and connected narrative elements: Submerged Portraits\, Flood Lines\, Watermarks\, and Deluge.

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:Universal Declaration of Human Rights: Linocuts by Meredith Stern
DESCRIPTION:On December 10\, 1948\, in the aftermath of the devastation of World War II\, the United Nations General Assembly adopted the Universal Declaration of Human Rights as a roadmap to guarantee the rights of every individual everywhere. The complete Declaration is comprised of a Preamble and 30 Articles. In honor of the 60th anniversary of this document\, we are exhibiting 14 Articles in the form of illustrated prints by Meredith Stern. These contemporary prints are intended both to make people aware of this rights roadmap and to show its urgent relevance in our contemporary political moment.\n\nMeredith Stern is an artist currently based in Providence\, RI\, and a member of the Justseeds Artists’ Cooperative\, a decentralized network of 30 artists committed to social\, environmental\, and political engagement. Stern created a total of 28 sets of these linocut prints in 2017\, of which one is held in the Joseph A. Labadie Collection in the Special Collections Research Center.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Contesting invisibility through a collaborative production of knowledge: The Afrodescendant Presence in Argentina
DESCRIPTION:Marisol Fila\, PhD Candidate in Spanish and Portuguese in Romance Languages and Literatures at U-M\, discusses the projects she has been generating with the Afro-Argentine organization Xangô to explore the possibilities of a scholarly work conceived as a combination of theory and practice\, that seeks to produce knowledge in collaboration and to promote participative and horizontal partnerships between academia and community-based organizations.\n\nThe discourse of national identity that emerged in Argentina during the formation of the nation state in the nineteenth and the twentieth century was constructed under a particular classist and racist vision that privileged white European migrants at the same time that turned invisible the presence of Afrodescendants and indigenous groups. By studying historical and contemporary self-representations of Afrodescendant groups in printed and digital culture\, Fila's research seeks to recognize the influence of the Afro community and culture to the formation of the Argentine national identity\, and the necessity of locating Afrodescendants as social\, political and cultural active subjects not only throughout the history but also in the present time. In addition to Fila's dissertation research\, she has been developing projects in partnership with Afro-Argentine activist organizations that since the 1990s have been raising their voices against the discrimination suffered.\n\nEmergent Research Series events seek to examine all aspects of the research lifecycle\, with a critical focus on ethics\, access\, and innovation\, and with an interest in emerging topics that are relevant to our local and global communities. These 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.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Economics Seminar: Linking Social and Personal Preferences
DESCRIPTION:Abstract:\n\nWe provide a positive account of preferences for both personal and social consumption in rich choice environments. Such preferences are important in many contexts\, including taxation\, charitable giving\, development\, and globalization. In all of these settings\, understanding behavior requires understanding the personal and social preferences that lie behind it. A theoretical and empirical analysis of these preferences therefore has implications in a host of areas.  The primary methodological contributions of the work are the establishment of theoretical links between preferences in various environments and an experimental technique that allows for the collection of richer data about preferences than has heretofore been possible. Beginning with the theoretical and experimental findings\, we can address important questions concerning personal and social preferences\, including: Is observed behavior consistent with the utility maximization hypothesis on which economic theory relies? Can underlying preferences be recovered from observed choices? What is the relationship between personal preferences and social preferences?

SUMMARY:Presentation:2018 Financing Research Commercialization Competition
DESCRIPTION:University of Michigan students are teeing up their venture capital investment proposals in anticipation of the upcoming 2018 Financing Research Commercialization Pitch Competition on Dec. 12. \nThis year\, 14 highly competitive teams of graduate and undergraduate students in Professor David J. Brophy’s Financing Research Commercialization practicum will go before a panel of 24 judges to present their strongest\, most-strategic fund-raising pitches for venture capital financing. \nThe event will kick off at 6 p.m. in the Ross School’s Blau Colloquium. (5th floor\, Blau building) Members and friends of the U-M student\, faculty and alumni community are welcome to attend.\nEach student team has been working closely with the founder(s) of a Michigan-based\, early-stage startup for the entire semester to help jump-start the company’s growth. A number of the participating startups are University spinouts that are commercializing new technologies and research discoveries.\nOver the course of the practicum\, the students have assisted these emerging companies in refining business plans and market-entry strategies\, accelerating the commercialization of research discoveries and disruptive technologies\, and raising venture capital to fund expansion. \nTo move the needle on startup development\, the teams needed to conduct due diligence\, calculate valuation\, develop financial plans and make key strategic decisions. Seasoned mentors helped the students put their textbook theory into practice.\nThe high-stakes 2018 Financing Research Commercialization Pitch Competition represents the culmination of months of hard work and collaboration. Each team stands ready to take on the capstone challenge in hopes of emerging as the top-ranked contestant in the pitch competition.\nThe practicum’s goal\, according to Professor Brophy\, is to give emerging\, fast-growth companies a fresh set of eyes\, minds and hands that can help them progress “the next mile” to raise external equity capital. Students\, in turn\, benefit from their action-based learning experience\, which prepares them to become successful leaders of their own entrepreneurial enterprises in the future.\n“In an action-learning setting\, this unique course succeeds in teaching students and entrepreneurs\, as working partners\, how to prepare and position high-potential\, emerging growth companies to raise their first (Series A) venture capital\, a critical milestone in the company’s growth\,” Professor Brophy explains. “Our objective is to help local market companies directly and to prepare U-M students to be fundable founders and venture investors in their own right.” \nThis year\, a panel of 24 judges will assess and rank the students’ investor pitches and offer helpful feedback. Judging panelists come from the wide range of Michigan venture capital investors: corporations such as Stryker and DowDuPont\, investment partnerships from the Michigan Venture Capital Association\, and an array of angel investment groups and high net worth individuals. \nSince its inception in 2004\, Professor Brophy’s course has provided student-led business-development and capital-raising assistance to 205 early-stage companies\, including 50 ventures that have procured their targeted funding. More than 1\,100 U-M students have gone through the practicum and become part of the Michigan Ross Center for Venture Capital and Private Equity Finance (CVP) “Next Mile to Funding” venture capital network.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Sinking Cities: Documenting the realities of climate change in cities around the world
DESCRIPTION:This exhibit provides a platform to begin understanding the effects of rising sea levels along the coasts of Indonesia\, Bangladesh\, The Netherlands\, Italy and the United States.\n\nBy the end of the century oceans are predicted to rise between .3 and 2.5 meters\, which will result in major flooding in coastal cities around the world. The Sinking Cities Project aims to document this inundation through the stories of residents and the changing landscape of their cities.\n\nThis photo and video exhibit was produced by Marcin Szczepanski\, visual communications director at Michigan Engineering\, and Frank Sedlar\, Michigan Engineering alumnus.\n\nJoin us for an exhibit opening event on November 16th\, 4:00-7:00 p.m.\, in the Clark Library.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Written Culture of Christian Egypt: Coptic Manuscripts from the University of Michigan Collection
DESCRIPTION:The dry climate of the Egyptian desert offers an ideal environment for the preservation of ancient artifacts. As the sands of Egypt has preserved also numerous Coptic manuscripts\, the transmission of the literary heritage of Egyptian Christians can be documented quite well from its beginnings in the 4th century CE until its decline in the 12th-13th centuries CE\, when it was completely superseded by Arabic. This exhibit aims to show some of the hallmarks of Coptic literature using manuscripts kept in the Special Collections Research Center of the University of Michigan Library. Topics explored include the main Coptic dialects\; bilingualism in Egypt\; books read by the Egyptian monks\; and the works of Shenoute the Great\, the most important author of Coptic literature.\n\nThis exhibit is curated by Dr. Frank Feder and Dr. Alin Suciu from the Göttingen Academy of Sciences and Humanities. The exhibit and related programming are offered with support from the Department of Middle East Studies and the Kelsey Museum of Archaeology.\n\nJoin us for an opening lecture and reception at 4:30 p.m. on November 12 in the Hatcher Library Gallery.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Deluge
DESCRIPTION:Five Channel Video Installation\n13 Minutes\, 27 Seconds.\n\nDeluge is a culmination of Mendel’s ten years of work on the Drowning World project\, shooting video and stills in thirteen different countries. It depicts a variety of individual stories\, positioned with a synchronous global narrative in a way that is both personally intimate and deeply political. In all his years of responding to floods and making many journeys he has shot a vast archive of video footage\, which is fully activated in this presentation for the first time.\n\nAbout Gideon Mendel and his Drowning World project:\nGideon Mendel came of age as a photographer in South Africa in the 1980’s and identified strongly as a ‘struggle photographer’. This marked him and his subsequent career has been notable for his engagement with three of the crucial political and social issues that have faced his generation. These are the struggle against apartheid\, HIV/AIDS in Africa and Climate Change.\n\nA leading contemporary photographer\, Gideon Mendel's intimate style of image making and long-term commitment to projects has earned him international recognition and many awards. He was shortlisted for the Prix Pictet Prize 2015 and recently has won both the inaugural Jackson Pollock Prize for Creativity and the Greenpeace Photo Award 2016.\n\nHis on-going project ‘Drowning World\, explores the human dimension of climate change by focusing on floods across geographical and cultural boundaries. By highlighting the personal impact of flooding he evokes our vulnerability to global warming questioning our sense of stability in the world.\n\nThe work began in 2007\, when Mendel photographed floods in the UK and in India within weeks of each other. He was deeply struck by the contrasting impact of these events\, and the shared experiences of those affected.\n\nSince then he has endeavoured to travel to flood zones around the world visiting Haiti (2008)\, Pakistan (2010)\, Australia (2011)\, Thailand (2011)\, Nigeria (2012)\, Germany (2013)\, The Philippines (2013)\, The UK (2014)\, India (2014)\, Brazil (2015)\, Bangladesh (2015)\, the USA (2015 and 2017) and France (2016 and 2018).\n\nAs the work progressed photographing floods became both a literal and allegorical means of documenting the tension between the personal and the global effects of climate change. Each location added has intensified the narrative impact of the endeavour.\n\nDrowning World now consists of four parallel and connected narrative elements: Submerged Portraits\, Flood Lines\, Watermarks\, and Deluge.

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:Lecture / Discussion:Incorporation of Native Communities in Archaeological Projects\, Bolivia
DESCRIPTION:This presentation deals with the development of cooperative relationships with Aymara-speaking communities in the northern Lake Titicaca Basin of Bolivia\, describing some of our experiences as foreign archaeologists\, and the long-term benefits that have resulted for both the communities and our interdisciplinary projects.  For example\, the establishment of multi-functional site museums\, a bilingual adult education program\, and other projects in rural areas.  In addition\, I will show how our efforts to train local workers in the archaeological methods of field and laboratory\, and integrating them in our projects have created a positive atmosphere of close friendship\, trust\, and support in our studies and dating of ancient stone-faced terraces built on a monumental scale\, and documenting for the first time maize cultivation at high altitudes.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Universal Declaration of Human Rights: Linocuts by Meredith Stern
DESCRIPTION:On December 10\, 1948\, in the aftermath of the devastation of World War II\, the United Nations General Assembly adopted the Universal Declaration of Human Rights as a roadmap to guarantee the rights of every individual everywhere. The complete Declaration is comprised of a Preamble and 30 Articles. In honor of the 60th anniversary of this document\, we are exhibiting 14 Articles in the form of illustrated prints by Meredith Stern. These contemporary prints are intended both to make people aware of this rights roadmap and to show its urgent relevance in our contemporary political moment.\n\nMeredith Stern is an artist currently based in Providence\, RI\, and a member of the Justseeds Artists’ Cooperative\, a decentralized network of 30 artists committed to social\, environmental\, and political engagement. Stern created a total of 28 sets of these linocut prints in 2017\, of which one is held in the Joseph A. Labadie Collection in the Special Collections Research Center.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Sinking Cities: Documenting the realities of climate change in cities around the world
DESCRIPTION:This exhibit provides a platform to begin understanding the effects of rising sea levels along the coasts of Indonesia\, Bangladesh\, The Netherlands\, Italy and the United States.\n\nBy the end of the century oceans are predicted to rise between .3 and 2.5 meters\, which will result in major flooding in coastal cities around the world. The Sinking Cities Project aims to document this inundation through the stories of residents and the changing landscape of their cities.\n\nThis photo and video exhibit was produced by Marcin Szczepanski\, visual communications director at Michigan Engineering\, and Frank Sedlar\, Michigan Engineering alumnus.\n\nJoin us for an exhibit opening event on November 16th\, 4:00-7:00 p.m.\, in the Clark Library.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Written Culture of Christian Egypt: Coptic Manuscripts from the University of Michigan Collection
DESCRIPTION:The dry climate of the Egyptian desert offers an ideal environment for the preservation of ancient artifacts. As the sands of Egypt has preserved also numerous Coptic manuscripts\, the transmission of the literary heritage of Egyptian Christians can be documented quite well from its beginnings in the 4th century CE until its decline in the 12th-13th centuries CE\, when it was completely superseded by Arabic. This exhibit aims to show some of the hallmarks of Coptic literature using manuscripts kept in the Special Collections Research Center of the University of Michigan Library. Topics explored include the main Coptic dialects\; bilingualism in Egypt\; books read by the Egyptian monks\; and the works of Shenoute the Great\, the most important author of Coptic literature.\n\nThis exhibit is curated by Dr. Frank Feder and Dr. Alin Suciu from the Göttingen Academy of Sciences and Humanities. The exhibit and related programming are offered with support from the Department of Middle East Studies and the Kelsey Museum of Archaeology.\n\nJoin us for an opening lecture and reception at 4:30 p.m. on November 12 in the Hatcher Library Gallery.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Deluge
DESCRIPTION:Five Channel Video Installation\n13 Minutes\, 27 Seconds.\n\nDeluge is a culmination of Mendel’s ten years of work on the Drowning World project\, shooting video and stills in thirteen different countries. It depicts a variety of individual stories\, positioned with a synchronous global narrative in a way that is both personally intimate and deeply political. In all his years of responding to floods and making many journeys he has shot a vast archive of video footage\, which is fully activated in this presentation for the first time.\n\nAbout Gideon Mendel and his Drowning World project:\nGideon Mendel came of age as a photographer in South Africa in the 1980’s and identified strongly as a ‘struggle photographer’. This marked him and his subsequent career has been notable for his engagement with three of the crucial political and social issues that have faced his generation. These are the struggle against apartheid\, HIV/AIDS in Africa and Climate Change.\n\nA leading contemporary photographer\, Gideon Mendel's intimate style of image making and long-term commitment to projects has earned him international recognition and many awards. He was shortlisted for the Prix Pictet Prize 2015 and recently has won both the inaugural Jackson Pollock Prize for Creativity and the Greenpeace Photo Award 2016.\n\nHis on-going project ‘Drowning World\, explores the human dimension of climate change by focusing on floods across geographical and cultural boundaries. By highlighting the personal impact of flooding he evokes our vulnerability to global warming questioning our sense of stability in the world.\n\nThe work began in 2007\, when Mendel photographed floods in the UK and in India within weeks of each other. He was deeply struck by the contrasting impact of these events\, and the shared experiences of those affected.\n\nSince then he has endeavoured to travel to flood zones around the world visiting Haiti (2008)\, Pakistan (2010)\, Australia (2011)\, Thailand (2011)\, Nigeria (2012)\, Germany (2013)\, The Philippines (2013)\, The UK (2014)\, India (2014)\, Brazil (2015)\, Bangladesh (2015)\, the USA (2015 and 2017) and France (2016 and 2018).\n\nAs the work progressed photographing floods became both a literal and allegorical means of documenting the tension between the personal and the global effects of climate change. Each location added has intensified the narrative impact of the endeavour.\n\nDrowning World now consists of four parallel and connected narrative elements: Submerged Portraits\, Flood Lines\, Watermarks\, and Deluge.

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:Presentation:IOE PhD Seminar Series - Karmel Shehadeh
DESCRIPTION:Open to all IOE graduate students and faculty. Lunch will be provided. In order to get an accurate count for food\, please RSVP by noon on Wednesday\, December 12.\n\nAbstract: \nOutpatient clinics (OPC) are increasingly growing as a central component of health care systems. They offer a variety of medical services and benefits such as short hospital stays\, high patient safety outcomes\, and low costs of care. They also introduce new challenges for appointment planning and scheduling primarily due to the heterogeneity of and variability in patients characteristic\, the existence of multiple competing performance criteria\, and the need to deliver care within a tight time window. Ignoring the variability in patient characteristic when designing appointment schedules may have negative consequences such as patient delays and clinic overtime. Conversely\, accounting for uncertainty in the scheduling decision process has the potential to create more efficient schedules that mitigate these adverse outcomes. However\, many challenges arise when attempting to model and solve appointment scheduling problems accounting for uncertainty. In this talk\, we present novel stochastic mixed-integer programming and distributionally robust optimization models and frameworks to optimize appointment planning and scheduling decisions under uncertainty in the context of three outpatient scheduling problems with broader applications within and outside of healthcare. In each of these three problems\, we focus on efficiently accounting for uncertainty in the scheduling decision process and proposing tractable and implementable appointment scheduling models.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Universal Declaration of Human Rights: Linocuts by Meredith Stern
DESCRIPTION:On December 10\, 1948\, in the aftermath of the devastation of World War II\, the United Nations General Assembly adopted the Universal Declaration of Human Rights as a roadmap to guarantee the rights of every individual everywhere. The complete Declaration is comprised of a Preamble and 30 Articles. In honor of the 60th anniversary of this document\, we are exhibiting 14 Articles in the form of illustrated prints by Meredith Stern.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Seminar Title:  “The decision landscapes in living cells”
DESCRIPTION:Abstract: Live cells routinely make decisions that are informed by external stimuli and endogenous noisy regulatory networks. At this point\, we lack a coherent understanding of how these decisions are made\, although we have developed mechanistic descriptions of various instances of decision making processes in specific systems. In this talk\, using the recent experimental and modeling analyses of cell migration\, proliferation and death conducted at our lab\, I will suggest a methodology for quantitative understanding of cellular decision making. I will also demonstrate that this method has a powerful predictive power\, with particular applications to therapeutic interventions in cancer and other complex diseases. This approach can be extended to other systems and can lay the foundations for a more integrative analysis of cell function.

SUMMARY:Performance:Over The Rhine
DESCRIPTION:2018 Christmas Tour Thoughts\n\n One December\, not long after Over the Rhine began recording and touring\, we were invited to perform some seasonal songs on a public radio station. So we worked up a few carols and traditional tunes. It actually felt really good and conjured up an unusual mix of feelings from childhood: innocence\, loss\, wonder\, joy\, sadness. I think we were surprised.\nOn our 2018 tour\, we will be performing as a trio\, leaning into three-part harmonies and making an intimate but hopefully holy ruckus. It won’t be all Christmas music: we’ll certainly mix in tunes from many of our records along the way. But hopefully it’s still true\; that you haven’t heard anything quite like it.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Written Culture of Christian Egypt: Coptic Manuscripts from the University of Michigan Collection
DESCRIPTION:The dry climate of the Egyptian desert offers an ideal environment for the preservation of ancient artifacts. As the sands of Egypt has preserved also numerous Coptic manuscripts\, the transmission of the literary heritage of Egyptian Christians can be documented quite well from its beginnings in the 4th century CE until its decline in the 12th-13th centuries CE\, when it was completely superseded by Arabic. This exhibit aims to show some of the hallmarks of Coptic literature using manuscripts kept in the Special Collections Research Center of the University of Michigan Library. Topics explored include the main Coptic dialects\; bilingualism in Egypt\; books read by the Egyptian monks\; and the works of Shenoute the Great\, the most important author of Coptic literature.\n\nThis exhibit is curated by Dr. Frank Feder and Dr. Alin Suciu from the Göttingen Academy of Sciences and Humanities. The exhibit and related programming are offered with support from the Department of Middle East Studies and the Kelsey Museum of Archaeology.\n\nJoin us for an opening lecture and reception at 4:30 p.m. on November 12 in the Hatcher Library Gallery.

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: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:Performance:Blackthorn
DESCRIPTION:A Blackthorn show is a musical ramble across Ireland. Traditional songs of emigration\, ballads\, shanties and jigs and reels combine with some of Ireland’s best contemporary songs for a musical experience that is uniquely Irish. Each of the band’s five members plays multiple instruments\, including flute\, accordion\, tin whistle\, fiddle\, banjo\, cittern\, bodhran\, and more. These instruments complement the lead vocal of Belfast native Richard McMullan and the band’s tight blend of four-part harmony. This band has been bringing a rich tapestry of Celtic music to southeast Michigan and beyond for 30 years\, and they're a must-see for those who want to know the deep traditions of Irish music in Michigan. And\, this being December\, there may be a holiday tune or two!
