SUMMARY:Exhibition:Gifts of Art presents Image Vessels: Blown Glass
DESCRIPTION:Sculptor Herb Babcock creates both monumental and human-scale work using metal\, glass and stone. In the early years of the American Studio Glass Movement (1974-1984) Babcock’s sculptural and painterly expression utilized the vessel format. By layering color — both mass and line — between gathers of clear\, molten glass\, the full compositions are viewed through the vessel as three-dimensional. Babcock is Professor Emeritus\, College for Creative Studies. He was Section Chair of the Glass Department where he taught for 40 years. He lives in Ann Arbor and built a new studio near U-M north campus in 2016.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Gifts of Art presents Impressions in Pastel
DESCRIPTION:Sharon Will’s commitment to painting is to capture the simple\, everyday beauty around her in her native Michigan and beyond. She is passionate about painting plein air (outdoors) whenever possible\, as she feels the direct observation from life is the best teacher to truly see the subtleties of light and color in nature. Working on sanded paper\, her process begins with a pastel and alcohol/mineral spirits under-painting wash to establish value and color. Soft pastel is applied in layers\, often in contrasting color and temperatures for vibrancy. Over her 35-year career in painting\, Will has won numerous national awards. She also operates a custom framing business from her home/studio in Washington Township and teaches occasional workshops.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Gifts of Art presents Mystery Train: Oil on Linen

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well from its beginnings in the 4th century CE until its decline in the 12th-13th centuries CE\, when it was completely superseded by Arabic.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:Lecture / Discussion:RENEWED ACTIVISM FOR THE LABOR MOVEMENT:  THE URGENCY OF YOUNG WORKER ENGAGEMENT
DESCRIPTION:Maite Tapia is Assistant Professor at Michigan State University’s School of Human Resources and Labor Relations. Her research centers on the organizing strategies of trade unions and community organizations in the U.S. and Europe\, and on work\, migration\, and the concept of intersectionality. She has published her work in several academic journals and is co-editor of the 2014 Cornell University Press book\, \"Mobilizing Against Inequality: Unions\, Immigrant Workers\, and the Crisis of Capitalism\".\n\nProf. Tapia will discuss a multi-year study on young workers and their level of involvement in the labor movements of four countries:  France\, Germany\, the United Kingdom\, and the United States. Results suggest that two key variables affect involvement level: The openness and encouragement of unions to the leadership development of young workers\, and the persistence and creativity of groups of young workers in promoting their own engagement. Young workers embody labor’s potential for movement-building and for resistance to authoritarianism and populism.\n\nThis is the second of a six-lecture series. The subject is The Future of Work. How Will Your Grandchildren Make a Living? The next lecture will be January 17\, 2019. The subject is: Human Thriving in the New World of Work.

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:Paul Rand: The Designer's Task
DESCRIPTION:Paul Rand's visionary conceptions of brand identity \nPaul Rand was a giant of American design\, whose influential career spanned the second half of the twentieth century. His visionary and pithy conceptions of corporate and non-profit brand identities—though often graphically minimal—embody the artist’s complex philosophy\, interest in modernist aesthetics\, and singular wit. This exhibition features posters\, book covers\, and packaging designs from Rand’s beginnings as a pro bono designer for arts and culture publications like Direction magazine to his decades of crafting trailblazing corporate design for companies such as IBM. Paul Rand: The Designer’s Task affords viewers the opportunity to explore the genre of graphic design within the context of the art museum and examine how Rand’s intellectual process and impact on visual culture developed over time.\n\n

DESCRIPTION:A narrative of Ryoichi's archaeological work \nThe story of Japanese archaeologist Ryoichi and evidence of his worldwide excavations are explored by Patrick Nagatani in this series of photographs. Nagatani presents a narrative of Ryoichi’s archaeological work\, supported by images of excavation sites\, unearthed artifacts\, and Ryoichi’s own journal pages. According to the photographs\, Ryoichi discovered evidence of an automobile culture buried at sites across several continents: Stonehenge\, the Grand Canyon\, and a necropolis in China. This provocative and playful series compels viewers to reflect on how photographs and institutions\, such as museums\, shape our knowledge of the past and present.\n\n

DESCRIPTION:A serene and surreal constellation \nTristin Lowe’s Under the Influence is a serene and surreal constellation of three interconnected works: Argonaut II\, an oversized reflective door that leads viewers into the installation\, Lunacy\, a twelve-and-half-foot-diameter facsimile of the moon\, and Visither I\, a blue neon-light sculpture resembling a nomadic visiting spaceship. Lunacy\, the central component of the installation\, is constructed of 490 square feet of white felt pieced together by hand and stretched around an inflatable sphere. The surface is branded with craters and other markers that meticulously render the moon’s topography.  The installation creates a visceral feeling of time having stopped\, as if the cosmos has magically been paused—a sensation that is both captivating and strange. The unlikely experience of encountering the moon at this scale deepens this bewilderment. Under the Influence is a hypnotic work with a conceptual openness that rebuffs obvious narrative or meaning. In the artist’s own words\, “there’s a bit of the supernatural or otherworldly at work.”\n\n

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Art Exhibition: The Smell of Lint and Frost
DESCRIPTION:Elizabeth Youngblood is a Detroit-based artist trained and working in a variety of media disciplines including fiber and clay. Recent work is based on drawing/mark making\, with a developing body of photographic work. Both consider themes relating to the passage of time\, but in ways particular the each medium.\n\nYoungblood earned a BFA in ceramics is from The University of Michigan\, School of Art (now The Stamps School of Art & Design) and an MFA from Cranbrook Academy of Art working with Katherine McCoy.\n\nSince returning to Detroit after living and working in New York City\, Philadelphia\, and other cities in Pennsylvania and New Jersey\, and teaching at a range of colleges and universities\, Youngblood now maintains a full-time studio practice. Her art is exhibited locally and nationally\, and is represented in both private and public collections.\n\nThe Opening Reception for the Artist will take place on Wednesday\, January 16 from 4-6pm.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:LSI Seminar Series: Justin Taraska\, Ph.D.\, National Heart\, Lung\, and Blood Institute
DESCRIPTION:Abstract:\n\nThe plasma membrane separates the cell’s interior from the outside world. The exchange of information and material across this barrier is regulated by a multitude of channels\, transporters\, receptors\, and trafficking organelles. Mapping the structure and dynamics of the plasma membrane is key to understanding how cells function. Electron microscopy can produce high resolution images of the structure of the plasma membrane. It has been challenging\, however\, to identify proteins within these samples. Super-resolution localization microscopy can image specific fluorescently-labeled molecules with better than 20 nm precision. We recently developed a correlative super-resolution light and  platinum replica EM method (CLEM) that couples these complementary methods to produce images where identified proteins are mapped within the dense structural context of the cell at the nanoscale. This correlative method is uniquely suited to map the nanometer-scale molecular organization of the plasma membrane and associated organelles. Using this CLEM method\, we studied 19 key proteins involved in clathrin-mediated endocytosis. Our data provide a comprehensive molecular architecture of endocytic vesicles. We discover that key endocytic proteins distribute into three distinct spatial zones: inside\, outside\, and at the edge of the clathrin coat in human cells. The presence and amount of many factors within these zones change during organelle maturation. We propose that the formation and curvature of single clathrin-coated vesicles is driven by the recruitment\, re-organization\, and loss of proteins within these three partitioned nanoscale zones during endocytosis.\n\nLunch will be provided to attendees.

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:Chair's Distinguished Lecture Series - What Can the Aerospace Field Do About Its Diversity Problem?
DESCRIPTION:Ken Powell\nArthur F. Thurnau Professor and DEI Faculty Liaison\nAerospace Engineering\, UM\n\nThe other talks this semester will be based on research in Aerospace Sciences and Engineering.  This talk is based on research in the Social Sciences - particularly Psychology\, Sociology\, Economics - and how it applies to education and careers in aerospace engineering.\n\nFor the past five years\, I have been part of a group of Michigan professors who read this social science literature\, and meet to discuss its implications on academic careers - teaching\, research\, service and hiring of faculty.  We also give talks about why and how to improve diversity in faculty hiring to faculty throughout the university\, department chairs and deans\, and faculty at other universities.\n\nIn this talk\, I will present some classical and recent social science research about issues that affect our ability to hire and retain a diverse and excellent faculty\, particularly in STEM fields\, and especially in aerospace engineering.  Topics will include implicit bias\, stereotype threat\, accumulation of disadvantage\, and some of the steps we are taking as a university to improve the composition of the faculty.  I will also present data about the demographics of the aerospace field\, and give you some strategies for being a part of the much-needed solution to Aerospace's diversity challenges.\n\nAbout the speaker...\nProfessor Powell is a member and past director of the W. M. Keck Foundation Computational Fluid Dynamics Laboratory\, and a co-founder and co-director of the Center for Space Environment Modeling and the the Center for Radiative Shock Hydrodynamics. At the undergraduate level\, he teaches freshman computing\, compressible flow\, aerodynamics and aircraft design\; at the graduate level\, he teaches aerodynamics and computational fluid dynamics. His research interests include: algorithm development for fluid dynamics\, aerodynamics and plasmadynamics\; and the application of computational methods to problems in aerodynamics\, aeroelasticity\, fluid dynamics and space environment/space weather. His articles appear in Journal of Fluid Mechanics\, Journal of Computational Physics\, and Journal of Geophysical Research: Space Physics\, among others. He is also a co-author of Multi-Media Fluid Mechanics. He has received a number of awards for his research\, including a National Science Foundation Young Investigator Award\, and a number of awards for his teaching\, including the Arthur F. Thurnau Professorship. He is married to Susanne Maria Krummel\; they are the proud parents of Jasmine (25)\, Ryan (22)\, and Nicole (19).

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:CM Theory Seminar | Dirac Electrons on the Kagome Lattice
DESCRIPTION:The kagome lattice is a two-dimensional network of corner-sharing triangles known as a platform for exotic quantum magnetic states. Theoretical work has predicted that the kagome lattice may also host exotic Dirac electronic states including those with non-trivial topology.  We here present our recent work in conducting\, layered kagome materials in exploring these Dirac-like states\, particularly in systems with magnetic order.  We describe observations massive Dirac states and associated Berry curvature induced transport.  We also demonstrate the detection of these states from de Haas-van Alphen oscillations and their modification in magnetic field.  Finally\, we discuss the promise for these materials in terms of realizing robust time-reversal-breaking topological phases.\n

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Dissertation Workshop
DESCRIPTION:Please join the Nineteenth-Century Forum for a discussion of English PhD candidate Ross Martin's dissertation introduction: \"American Demonology after the Ancients.\"\n\nAbstract: My dissertation introduction\, \"American Demonology after the Ancients\,\" follows the Demonic as a thread of interest traversing the writings of Ralph Waldo Emerson\, Margaret Fuller\, Henry David Thoreau\, and Herman Melville. By Demonic\, I mean a primal phenomenon which manifests itself in ontological contradiction as something. (In Emerson\, the something is Tragic art\; in Fuller\, it is Leila\; in Thoreau\, it is the arrowhead\; in Melville\, it is the whale.) The ontological paradox through which the Demonic manifests an identity—unity and variety—is not resolved. Rather\, by disclosing itself (as a third estate of being) in an insurmountable contrast\, the Demonic stages an upheaval in thinking whereby pure difference is affirmed. By inciting affirmation in the context of (Antebellum) Romantic American literature\, this account of the Demonic entails the overturning of Platonic demonology\, with its negative relation to life. I thus trace two ontological perspectives\, the negative and the affirmative\, and the associated ethical orientations in the register of demonism. But by reversing Platonism through demonology\, American writers imperil the logics dependent upon it\, including dialectics and the univocity underlying recent criticism. For these reasons\, the shadow discourse that I follow inverts the status of thought and makes Emerson’s seemingly naïve proclamation in Nature (1836)\, that America is a place for “new thoughts\,” a completely serious claim.\n\n Key names: Ralph Waldo Emerson\, Margaret Fuller\, Henry David Thoreau\, Herman Melville\, Heraclitus\, Socrates\, Plato\, Aristotle\, Baruch Spinoza\, Emanuel Swedenborg\, Johann Wolfgang von Goethe\, Friedrich Nietzsche\, Martin Heidegger\, and Gilles Deleuze. \nKey terms: demonology\, affirmation\, fate\, and rebirth. \nKey disciplinary interests: American literature\, Romanticism\, ecology\, animal studies\, comparative literature\, philosophy\, and classics. \n\nTo RSVP and request a copy of Ross's introduction please email Evan Radeen (eradeen@umich.edu).

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Metabolomics: Do you know what you (or your cells) are really eating?
DESCRIPTION:The Taubman Technology Talks series kicks off its 2019 season with “Metabolomics: Do you know what you (or your cells) are really eating?” featuring Taubman Institute Director Charles Burant\, MD\, PhD.  \nAll are welcome January 10 from 5-6 pm at the Danto Auditorium inside the Frankel CVC for the lecture plus Q&A\, followed by a reception and light refreshments.  Attendance is free but if possible\, please register at our Eventbrite site. \nMetabolomics is the large-scale study of small molecules\, commonly known as metabolites\, within cells\, biofluids\, tissues or organisms. Examples of metabolites are glucose in the metabolism of sugars and starches\, amino acids in the biosynthesis of proteins\, and squalene in the biosynthesis of cholesterol. Collectively\, these small molecules and their interactions within a biological system are known as the metabolome. Metabolomics is now an integral part of the ‘omics analysis and can provide unique information in a broad array of biological systems.

SUMMARY:Performance:Three Women & The Truth: M Gauthier\, E Gilkyson\, G Peters
DESCRIPTION:Announcement: \n\nDear Friends\,\n\n I am so sorry I won’t be able to get on a plane today and play these shows with my wonderful 3WATT friends Gretchen Peters and Mary Gauthier. Last night at 2 a.m. I rolled over and felt a stabbing pain in my upper right torso. Things went downhill from there into full blown shingles by dawn\, the kind that never erupt on the surface but stay under your skin\, causing agonizing nerve pain. Yikes!\n\nThe good news is the show will go on in grand style-I know Mary and Gretchen will kill it as they always do-two of my favorite songwriters and performers in the world\, both of them Grammy nominated and at the top of their game.  And if that ain’t enough Austin’s biggest buzz\, singer-songwriter Jaimee Harris will be on board to play her heart out as well. Barry Walsh will also be joining Mary and Gretchen on piano at the Ark in Ann Arbor and at Chicago City Winery - making for one great night of music.\n\nI’m sure you will enjoy this show\, and please know I will be back around as soon as I am able.\n\nThank you!\n\nEliza Gilkyson\n\n \n\n \n\n \n\nEliza Gilkyson\n\n \n\nTwice Grammy Nominated folksinger Eliza Gilkyson has just released her 20th album\, Secularia\, a collection of songs old and new that reflect her ongoing search for meaningful spirituality without the constraints of traditional religious belief systems\, replacing dominant ideology with a more inclusive perspective that embraces compassion\, self-awareness and respect for the natural world in a culture she feels is “wavering between collapse and reinvention”. Produced by her son\, Cisco Ryder\, (Nocturne Diaries\, Roses at the End of Time\, Red Horse)\, with a spare urban approach\, the recording features songs of grief\, gratitude and wonder\, a call for accountability and a true moral compass for these divisive times.\n\n \n\n“Secularia is a series of poems and hymns\, deeply spiritual songs that praise the wonder and beauty of the world\, that lament its destruction\, and that celebrate the joy of the mystery that lies behind its wild wonder.”\n\n   --- No Depression\n\n***\n\n \n\nGretchen Peters \n\n \n\nFor two decades\, Gretchen Peters has been one of Nashville's most beloved and respected artists. Inducted into the Nashville Songwriters Hall of Fame in October 2014 by singer-songwriter Rodney Crowell\, who called her \"a songwriter and a poet (who) sings as beautifully as she writes” Peters has accumulated accolades as a songwriter for artists as diverse as Etta James\, Bonnie Raitt\, The Neville Brothers\, Patty Loveless\, George Strait\, Bryan Adams and Faith Hill. In 2015\, The Telegraph (UK) named her one of the greatest 60 female singer-songwriters of all time.\n\n \n\n“…songs that manage\, with deft use of language\, to cram a whole epic into three minutes. Astonishingly good writing.” – Pop Matters\n\n \n\n***\n\n“With songwriting as powerful as hers\, there’s no need to go looking for qualifiers. She’s a unique\, intrinsically valuable musical voice. And there’s never a surplus of those.” 
— Randy Lewis\, Los Angeles Time\n\n \n\nThe Associated Press named Mary Gauthier as one of the best songwriters of her generation. Her songs have been recorded by dozens of artists\, including Jimmy Buffett\, Blake Shelton\, Tim McGraw\, Bettye Lavette Mike Farris\, Kathy Mattea\, Bobby Bare\, Amy Helm and Candi Staton\, and have appeared extensively in Film and Television\, most recently on Yellowstone. Her album\, Filth and Fire (2002) was named Best Independent CD of the year by the New York Times\, and Mary was signed to Universal Lost Highway. Her following 5 records were listed in both the LA Times and NY Times top three releases of the year. She was awarded New Artist of the year by The Americana Music Association in 2005\, and her record Mercy Now was named in the top 5 records of the decade by No Depression magazine. Her most recent release\, Rifles & Rosary Beads  ( a collection of sons co-written with wounded veterans) was nominated for 2018’s record of the year by the Americana Music Association as well she was nominated for a Grammy in 2018 for Best Folk Recording category.\n\nThree Women

DESCRIPTION:Sharon Will’s commitment to painting is to capture the simple\, everyday beauty around her in her native Michigan and beyond. She is passionate about painting plein air (outdoors) whenever possible\, as she feels the direct observation from life is the best teacher to truly see the subtleties of light and color in nature. Working on sanded paper\, her process begins with a pastel and alcohol/mineral spirits under-painting wash to establish value and color. Soft pastel is applied in layers\, often in contrasting color and temperatures for vibrancy. Over her 35-year career in painting\, Will has won numerous national awards. She also operates a custom framing business from her home/studio in Washington Township and teaches occasional workshops.

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: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:Paul Rand: The Designer's Task
DESCRIPTION:Paul Rand's visionary conceptions of brand identity \nPaul Rand was a giant of American design\, whose influential career spanned the second half of the twentieth century. His visionary and pithy conceptions of corporate and non-profit brand identities—though often graphically minimal—embody the artist’s complex philosophy\, interest in modernist aesthetics\, and singular wit. This exhibition features posters\, book covers\, and packaging designs from Rand’s beginnings as a pro bono designer for arts and culture publications like Direction magazine to his decades of crafting trailblazing corporate design for companies such as IBM. Paul Rand: The Designer’s Task affords viewers the opportunity to explore the genre of graphic design within the context of the art museum and examine how Rand’s intellectual process and impact on visual culture developed over time.\n\n

DESCRIPTION:A narrative of Ryoichi's archaeological work \nThe story of Japanese archaeologist Ryoichi and evidence of his worldwide excavations are explored by Patrick Nagatani in this series of photographs. Nagatani presents a narrative of Ryoichi’s archaeological work\, supported by images of excavation sites\, unearthed artifacts\, and Ryoichi’s own journal pages. According to the photographs\, Ryoichi discovered evidence of an automobile culture buried at sites across several continents: Stonehenge\, the Grand Canyon\, and a necropolis in China. This provocative and playful series compels viewers to reflect on how photographs and institutions\, such as museums\, shape our knowledge of the past and present.\n\n

DESCRIPTION:Damage from recent earthquakes underscores the importance of developing new\napproaches and technologies to improve the performance of structures during\nearthquakes. The presentation will highlight applications of one class of smart\nmaterials\, shape memory alloys\, in improving the performance of structures\nsubjected to earthquake loading. Shape memory alloys belong to a class of shape\nmemory materials which can undergo large deformations while reverting back to\ntheir original\, undeformed shape. This unique property has led to the development\nof numerous applications in the biomedical\, aerospace\, and commercial industry. A\nmulti-scale and multi-disciplinary approach is taken to explore the potential use of\nthese systems for applications in earthquake engineering.\n\nReginald DesRoches is the Dean of William and Stephanie Sick of Engineering of Rice University.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Tristin Lowe: Under the Influence
DESCRIPTION:A serene and surreal constellation \nTristin Lowe’s Under the Influence is a serene and surreal constellation of three interconnected works: Argonaut II\, an oversized reflective door that leads viewers into the installation\, Lunacy\, a twelve-and-half-foot-diameter facsimile of the moon\, and Visither I\, a blue neon-light sculpture resembling a nomadic visiting spaceship. Lunacy\, the central component of the installation\, is constructed of 490 square feet of white felt pieced together by hand and stretched around an inflatable sphere. The surface is branded with craters and other markers that meticulously render the moon’s topography.  The installation creates a visceral feeling of time having stopped\, as if the cosmos has magically been paused—a sensation that is both captivating and strange. The unlikely experience of encountering the moon at this scale deepens this bewilderment. Under the Influence is a hypnotic work with a conceptual openness that rebuffs obvious narrative or meaning. In the artist’s own words\, “there’s a bit of the supernatural or otherworldly at work.”\n\n

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:Presentation:CCN Forum
DESCRIPTION:Talk Title: From Talkers to Readers: Developing a Reading Brain in Kindergarten\n\nAbstract:  A universal marker of proficient reading is print-speech neural convergence\, or the integration of visual and auditory language processing in the brain. How and when does this convergence emerge? What drives the development of the print-speech network\, setting the stage for successful reading acquisition in young children? \n\nIn this talk\, we will examine the relationship between spoken language proficiency and the emergence of print-speech convergence in beginning readers. fMRI neuroimaging of kindergarteners (ages 5-6)  demonstrates that print-speech convergence is preceded and predicted by language proficiency\, which in turn predicts reading ability one year later. These findings suggest that children’s language ability is a core mechanism guiding neural plasticity for learning to read. Results extend our understanding of brain development for literacy to the earliest stages of reading\, and bridge theoretical perspectives across developmental psychology\, education\, and neuroscience.\n\nBio: Rebecca is a 4th year doctoral candidate in the Combined Program in Education and Psychology. She graduated from Washington University in St. Louis in 2013 with a degree in Philosophy\, Neuroscience & Psychology.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Smith Lecture: The Science of Earthquake Forecasts
DESCRIPTION:This talk reviews new ideas about earthquakes that we’ve learned at the Southern California Earthquake Center (SCEC)\, and where we’re headed next. \n\nThe danger and cost of earthquakes has focused public fear and research effort in California since long before the devastating 1906 San Francisco and 1933 Long Beach events. Precise earthquake prediction\, heralded as imminent in the 1970s\, has faltered\, maybe permanently\, but nevertheless there is progress. \n\nHosted at USC\, with 16 core institutions and more than 60 affiliated organizations\, SCEC involves more than 1000 quake cognoscenti. Funding comes from the National Science Foundation\, the United States Geological Survey\, and special projects with foundation and corporate partners. We are uncloaking the mysteries in plate tectonics\, the San Andreas fault system\, and how the ground is driven to shake. SCEC investigates all aspects of earthquakes from theoretical models through detailed observations to hazard maps. We foster collaboration among the fields of science and engineering research\, computer science\, communication and outreach to develop integrated research products used by various stakeholders. \n\nThe central point of this intense research\, and the result that most directly benefits those living in California\, is the improvement of maps of earthquake danger. We find the tectonic fault lines\, gauge their geological rates of motion\, and model their patterns of rupture and reloading in order to resolve the earthquakes we are likely to face. By simulating\, in the nation’s largest computers\, the trembling for millions of those earthquakes through high-fidelity models of the rocks just under our feet\, we are step-by-step wringing the uncertainty out of the nation’s earthquake hazard maps.\n\nWe are on the verge of making the hazard estimation process entirely physics-based - built on models with realistic patterns of fault slip on realistic fault surfaces\, accurate models of geological structure\, and with the latest models of earthquake cycles on fault systems. Some aspects of the old hazard maps are confirmed. Other aspects\, particularly the strength of the reverbera¬tions in the soft Los Angeles basin and its basin brothers across the state\, may have been underestimated. A few places are now assessed as safer than before\, but answers are not yet final. \n\nSCEC is allowing more apt emergency preparations and building and retrofitting laws\, and in the process giving us a deeper understanding of the physics of earthquakes and the geological evolution of the Southern California natural laboratory.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:How to Make Causal Inferences Using Texts
DESCRIPTION:Abstract: New text-as-data techniques offer a great promise: the ability to discover\, measure\, and then utilize text-based variables for testing social science theories of interest from large collections of text. We introduce a conceptual framework for making causal inferences with text-based measures as either a treatment or outcome.  We argue that nearly all text-based causal inferences depend upon a latent representation of the text and provide a set of sufficient assumptions to identify causal effects when text is used as a treatment or outcome. We provide a framework to learn the latent representation---justifying the use of popular unsupervised methods such as topic modeling or principal component analysis---and then estimate causal effects with the same sample used to learn the latent representation. But estimating the latent representation\, we show\, creates new risks: we may introduce an identification problem or overfit. To address this problem we introduce a split-sample framework.  We apply our framework to study whether increasing the proportion of women on Congressional committees leads to more representation of women’s ideas during the legislative process and to assess how partisans respond to social media messages from President Trump.\n\nBio: Justin Grimmer is an associate professor of political science at Stanford University. His research examines how representation occurs in American politics using new statistical methods. His first book Representational Style in Congress: What Legislators Say and Why It Matters (Cambridge University Press\, 2013) shows how senators define the type of representation they provide constituents and how this affects constituents' evaluations. His second book The Impression of Influence: How Legislator Communication and Government Spending Cultivate a Personal Vote (Under Review\, with Sean J. Westwood and Solomon Messing) demonstrates how legislators ensure they receive credit for government actions. His work has appeared in the American Political Science Review\, American Journal of Political Science\, Journal of Politics\, Political Analysis\, Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences\, Regulation and Governance\, and Poetics. During the 2013-2014 academic year he was a National Fellow at the Hoover Institute.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Seminar Title: \"Predicting RNA Structure with Physics and Sequence Comparison\"
DESCRIPTION:Abstract: RNA structure is hierarchical.  The primary structure is the sequence of nucleotides.  The secondary structure is the set of canonical (AU\, GC\, and GU) base pairs.  The tertiary structure is the three dimensional position of the atoms and the additional intramolecular contacts that mediate the fold.\n\nThe Mathews lab develops methods to predict both RNA secondary structure and tertiary structure.  In this talk\, I will introduce nearest neighbor parameters for estimating folding stability of secondary structures and dynamic programming algorithms that predict secondary structure.  I will then talk about new work in our lab to compare sequences to model conserved secondary structures.  We developed a new method\, called TurboFold\, which is able to rapidly refine predicted secondary structures using sequence comparison and rapidly refine sequence alignments using structure information.  I will also talk about new work to model RNA folding stability using molecular mechanics and 3D models.  We used umbrella sampling to estimate the unfolding free energy change differences for three stem-loop structures\, and we found good agreement with experiments.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Musicology Distinguished Lecture Series: Prof. Sonia Seeman\, University of Texas-Austin
DESCRIPTION:Abstract:\n\nRecent theoretical explorations of music as affective labor in post-Fordist economic systems from Hardt and Negri provide a deeper understanding of the relationship between musicking and social\, political and economic systems. However\, these approaches are hampered by subsuming various forms of effort into a totalizing view of labor. I propose re-theorizing aesthetic affective work as distinct from generalized and flat considerations of labor\, thus bringing to light changes in economic and political systems of exchanges\, governance and control. Understanding musical effort as craftsmanship in relation to aesthetic affective work enable us to document the ways that changes from early to late capitalism in mediatized and mechanized forms of effort and compensation that are increasingly replacing aesthetic work with exploited forms of labor.\nTo illustrate the power of a theory of affective musical work\, I offer two seemingly quite different case studies. An effort-centered analysis of the Bach family’s musical activities in 17th - 18th century Western Europe illuminates significant economic and social changes that in turn shaped individual musical subjectivities\, as their musical output shaped society and economic treatment of musicians. The second case study examines various strategies over time of the Sesler family\, a Roman professional musician kin group from 1920s – 2010s in Serres\, Greece and Turkey. The purpose of these case studies is not to provide definitive insights into each of these areas\, but rather to suggest a theorization of affective work based on nuancing the categories of musical effort according to local concepts and evaluations. Such theoretical considerations would be applicable to and productive for divergent musical genres\, time periods and places.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Gifts of Art presents Impressions in Pastel
DESCRIPTION:Sharon Will’s commitment to painting is to capture the simple\, everyday beauty around her in her native Michigan and beyond. She is passionate about painting plein air (outdoors) whenever possible\, as she feels the direct observation from life is the best teacher to truly see the subtleties of light and color in nature. Working on sanded paper\, her process begins with a pastel and alcohol/mineral spirits under-painting wash to establish value and color. Soft pastel is applied in layers\, often in contrasting color and temperatures for vibrancy. Over her 35-year career in painting\, Will has won numerous national awards. She also operates a custom framing business from her home/studio in Washington Township and teaches occasional workshops.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Gifts of Art presents Mystery Train: Oil on Linen
DESCRIPTION:Gregg Chadwick grew up with the rails of America in his blood. His grandfather Arthur Desch stoked coal in steam engines before becoming a train engineer on the Jersey Central Line. At family gatherings in Chadwick’s grandparent’s home\, his aunts and cousins played music to the rhythms of the trains outside. From Junior Parker\, Elvis Presley\, Bob Dylan and Johnny Cash\, to arts writers and directors Greil Marcus and Jim Jarmusch\, the enduring mythos of America and its legacy has been wrapped up in the blues notes of the song “Mystery Train”. Chadwick’s current series of paintings\, Mystery Train\, is steeped in the powerful echoes of those machine days.

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:Paul Rand: The Designer's Task
DESCRIPTION:Paul Rand's visionary conceptions of brand identity \nPaul Rand was a giant of American design\, whose influential career spanned the second half of the twentieth century. His visionary and pithy conceptions of corporate and non-profit brand identities—though often graphically minimal—embody the artist’s complex philosophy\, interest in modernist aesthetics\, and singular wit. This exhibition features posters\, book covers\, and packaging designs from Rand’s beginnings as a pro bono designer for arts and culture publications like Direction magazine to his decades of crafting trailblazing corporate design for companies such as IBM. Paul Rand: The Designer’s Task affords viewers the opportunity to explore the genre of graphic design within the context of the art museum and examine how Rand’s intellectual process and impact on visual culture developed over time.\n\n

DESCRIPTION:A narrative of Ryoichi's archaeological work \nThe story of Japanese archaeologist Ryoichi and evidence of his worldwide excavations are explored by Patrick Nagatani in this series of photographs. Nagatani presents a narrative of Ryoichi’s archaeological work\, supported by images of excavation sites\, unearthed artifacts\, and Ryoichi’s own journal pages. According to the photographs\, Ryoichi discovered evidence of an automobile culture buried at sites across several continents: Stonehenge\, the Grand Canyon\, and a necropolis in China. This provocative and playful series compels viewers to reflect on how photographs and institutions\, such as museums\, shape our knowledge of the past and present.\n\n

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Tristin Lowe: Under the Influence
DESCRIPTION:A serene and surreal constellation \nTristin Lowe’s Under the Influence is a serene and surreal constellation of three interconnected works: Argonaut II\, an oversized reflective door that leads viewers into the installation\, Lunacy\, a twelve-and-half-foot-diameter facsimile of the moon\, and Visither I\, a blue neon-light sculpture resembling a nomadic visiting spaceship. Lunacy\, the central component of the installation\, is constructed of 490 square feet of white felt pieced together by hand and stretched around an inflatable sphere. The surface is branded with craters and other markers that meticulously render the moon’s topography.  The installation creates a visceral feeling of time having stopped\, as if the cosmos has magically been paused—a sensation that is both captivating and strange. The unlikely experience of encountering the moon at this scale deepens this bewilderment. Under the Influence is a hypnotic work with a conceptual openness that rebuffs obvious narrative or meaning. In the artist’s own words\, “there’s a bit of the supernatural or otherworldly at work.”\n\n

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Gifts of Art presents Image Vessels: Blown Glass
DESCRIPTION:Sculptor Herb Babcock creates both monumental and human-scale work using metal\, glass and stone. In the early years of the American Studio Glass Movement (1974-1984) Babcock’s sculptural and painterly expression utilized the vessel format. By layering color — both mass and line — between gathers of clear\, molten glass\, the full compositions are viewed through the vessel as three-dimensional. Babcock is Professor Emeritus\, College for Creative Studies. He was Section Chair of the Glass Department where he taught for 40 years. He lives in Ann Arbor and built a new studio near U-M north campus in 2016.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Gifts of Art presents Impressions in Pastel
DESCRIPTION:Sharon Will’s commitment to painting is to capture the simple\, everyday beauty around her in her native Michigan and beyond. She is passionate about painting plein air (outdoors) whenever possible\, as she feels the direct observation from life is the best teacher to truly see the subtleties of light and color in nature. Working on sanded paper\, her process begins with a pastel and alcohol/mineral spirits under-painting wash to establish value and color. Soft pastel is applied in layers\, often in contrasting color and temperatures for vibrancy. Over her 35-year career in painting\, Will has won numerous national awards. She also operates a custom framing business from her home/studio in Washington Township and teaches occasional workshops.

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:Paul Rand: The Designer's Task
DESCRIPTION:Paul Rand's visionary conceptions of brand identity \nPaul Rand was a giant of American design\, whose influential career spanned the second half of the twentieth century. His visionary and pithy conceptions of corporate and non-profit brand identities—though often graphically minimal—embody the artist’s complex philosophy\, interest in modernist aesthetics\, and singular wit. This exhibition features posters\, book covers\, and packaging designs from Rand’s beginnings as a pro bono designer for arts and culture publications like Direction magazine to his decades of crafting trailblazing corporate design for companies such as IBM. Paul Rand: The Designer’s Task affords viewers the opportunity to explore the genre of graphic design within the context of the art museum and examine how Rand’s intellectual process and impact on visual culture developed over time.\n\n

DESCRIPTION:A narrative of Ryoichi's archaeological work \nThe story of Japanese archaeologist Ryoichi and evidence of his worldwide excavations are explored by Patrick Nagatani in this series of photographs. Nagatani presents a narrative of Ryoichi’s archaeological work\, supported by images of excavation sites\, unearthed artifacts\, and Ryoichi’s own journal pages. According to the photographs\, Ryoichi discovered evidence of an automobile culture buried at sites across several continents: Stonehenge\, the Grand Canyon\, and a necropolis in China. This provocative and playful series compels viewers to reflect on how photographs and institutions\, such as museums\, shape our knowledge of the past and present.\n\n

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Tristin Lowe: Under the Influence
DESCRIPTION:A serene and surreal constellation \nTristin Lowe’s Under the Influence is a serene and surreal constellation of three interconnected works: Argonaut II\, an oversized reflective door that leads viewers into the installation\, Lunacy\, a twelve-and-half-foot-diameter facsimile of the moon\, and Visither I\, a blue neon-light sculpture resembling a nomadic visiting spaceship. Lunacy\, the central component of the installation\, is constructed of 490 square feet of white felt pieced together by hand and stretched around an inflatable sphere. The surface is branded with craters and other markers that meticulously render the moon’s topography.  The installation creates a visceral feeling of time having stopped\, as if the cosmos has magically been paused—a sensation that is both captivating and strange. The unlikely experience of encountering the moon at this scale deepens this bewilderment. Under the Influence is a hypnotic work with a conceptual openness that rebuffs obvious narrative or meaning. In the artist’s own words\, “there’s a bit of the supernatural or otherworldly at work.”\n\n

SUMMARY:Presentation:Proof: The Ryoichi Excavations
DESCRIPTION:The story of Japanese archaeologist Ryoichi and evidence of his worldwide excavations are explored by Patrick Nagatani in this series of photographs. Nagatani presents a narrative of Ryoichi’s archeological work\, supported by images of excavation sites\, unearthed artifacts\, and Ryoichi’s own journal pages. According to the photographs\, Ryoichi discovered evidence of an automobile culture buried at sites across several continents: Stonehenge\, the Grand Canyon\, and a necropolis in China. Docents will introduce this provocative and playful series that compels viewers to reflect on how photographs and institutions\, such as museums\, shape our knowledge of the past and present.\n\nLead support for Proof: The Ryoichi Excavations is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost\, Japan Business Society of Detroit Foundation\, and Michigan Engineering.

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:Workshop / Seminar:Canopy Interception: Understanding Leaf Wetness and its Influence on Vegetation Water and Carbon Fluxes
DESCRIPTION:Canopy interception of rain\, dew\, and fog occurs in ecosystems worldwide. A ubiquitous effect of leaf wetness on plant water balance is the interference of the water droplets with the leaf energy balance\, which increases leaf albedo and emissivity and decreases leaf temperature through droplet evaporation. This in turns affects the vegetation carbon uptake rate\, with potential consequences for the whole global carbon cycle. Here\, I use the specific example of dew deposition to understand how leaf wetness affects water and CO2 fluxes of plants. First\, I will present a simple leaf energy balance that characterizes the effect of deposition and the evaporation of dew on transpiration and carbon uptake. The model is driven by five common meteorological variables and is used to explore the tradeoffs between energy\, water\, and carbon balances for leaves of different sizes across a range of environmental conditions. I will then present results from a laboratory experiment\nwhere Colocasia esculenta leaves were misted with isotopically enriched water to mimic canopy interception. Leaf water isotopes and water potential measurements corroborates the results of the model.

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:Workshop / Seminar:HEP-Astro Seminar | The Global Electroweak Fit in the Light of the New Results from the LHC
DESCRIPTION:With the high integrated luminosities recorded at the LHC and the very good understanding of the LHC detectors\, it is possible to measure electroweak observables to the highest precision. In this talk\, I review the measurement of the W boson mass as well as the measurement of the electroweak mixing angle with the ATLAS detector\, both achieving highest precision after several years of intense effort. Special focus is drawn on a discussion of the modeling uncertainties as well as the physics potential of the latest low-mu runs\, recorded at in 2017 and 2018. The results will be interpreted in terms of the overall consistency of the Standard Modell by the global electroweak fit\, performed by the Gfitter Collaboration.\n

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:Biopsychology Colloquium: \nUsing Avian Genomics to Innovate the Study of Stress-Induced Reproductive Dysfunction\n\nBrief synopsis: \nStress is a well-known cause of reproductive dysfunction in many species\, including birds\, rodents\, and humans\, though stereotypical males and females often respond differently. A powerful way to investigate how stress affects reproduction is by examining its effects on a biological system essential for regulating reproduction\, the hypothalamic-pituitary-gonadal (HPG) axis. Join Dr. Calisi Rodríguez as she uses avian models to test causal and sex-typical effects of stress on genomic transcription of the HPG axis. By doing so\, her lab has been creating an extensive genomic foundation on which to innovate the study of stress-induced reproductive dysfunction\, with the potential to transform the fields of stress and reproductive biology.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Mobilizing Biomedical Computable Knowledge
DESCRIPTION:We stand on the brink of the new knowledge revolution.\n\nAs the quantity of knowledge has exploded exponentially\, the current means for representing knowledge—words and pictures that must be interpreted by humans—have reached their limits. Our ability to use the ever-growing body of scientific\, biomedical knowledge rests on efforts to transform how knowledge is expressed into abstract models that can inform action through computation.\n\nThis persistent computable knowledge is the “Keystone” that holds the Learning Cycle Together.  At the LHS Collaboratory Seminar Series event on Tuesday\, January 15\, learn about the movement underway to promote the advancement of computable biomedical knowledge. Join Rachel Richesson\, PhD\, MPH\, from Duke University\, along with colleagues from the University of Michigan to hear more about the movement and ways to join the community!  \n\nRead more at:  www.MobilizeCBK.org.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Fighting for Our Rights: Three Young Women Facing Southern Racism in the 1960s
DESCRIPTION:In the 1960s\, when the Student Nonviolent Coordinating Committee (SNCC) was on the front line of the civil rights movement in the South\, Bettie Mae Fikes\, Marilyn Lowen\, and Martha P. Noonan were there\, too. \n\nThey will share their experiences at “Fighting for Our Rights: Three Young Women Facing Southern Racism in the 1960s.” This 2019 Martin Luther King Jr. Day Symposium is presented by the Department of History\, Department of Afroamerican and African Studies (DAAS)\, and Eisenberg Institute for Historical Studies\, with additional support from the Kalt Fund for African American and African History.\n\nBettie Mae Fikes was born in Selma\, Alabama\, and began singing gospel alongside her mother at age four. At sixteen she became a student leader for SNCC\, eventually performing with the SNCC Freedom Singers. She was jailed for several weeks in 1963 for protesting during the voting rights struggle in Selma. Ms. Fikes has graced the stages of Carnegie Hall\, the Newport Jazz Festival\, and the Library of Congress\, as well as performing for Democratic National Conventions in 1964 and 2004. She has performed with Joe Turner\, Lightnin’ Hopkins\, Albert King\, James Brown\, Bob Dylan\, and Mavis Staples\, among others. \n\nMarilyn Lowen is a poet\, writer\, teacher and lifelong human rights worker. Born in Detroit in 1944\, she began protesting racial injustice at eight years old. In high school she picketed Woolworth’s in downtown Detroit in solidarity with SNCC sit-ins in 1960-1961. At Bennington College she started a civil rights group to support SNCC and the Northern Student Movement.  She left school to work full time in the movement\, first with NSM in Harlem\, next in SNCC’s Atlanta photo department\, then moving to Tougaloo\, Mississippi\, to continue working with SNCC and the Child Development Group of Mississippi.  She relocated to New York City in 1968\, finishing her undergraduate and master's degrees\, and teaching in the city’s public schools at all levels.\n\nMartha Prescod Norman Noonan became involved in Students for a Democratic Society and SNCC while an undergraduate at the University of Michigan in the 1960s. Born and raised in Providence\, Rhode Island\, Noonan’s family moved to Detroit after she graduated from high school. An undergraduate history major at the University of Michigan\, she earned a master’s degree in history from Wayne State University and for over two years pursued a PhD in history at U-M until a series of family emergencies interrupted her studies. Ms. Noonan coedited Hands on the Freedom Plow: Personal Accounts by Women in SNCC (University of Illinois Press\, 2012).\n\n\nPresented by the Afroamerican and African Studies\, History\, and the Eisenberg Institute for Historical Studies.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:DAAS Africa Workshop  'What would you like to be when you grow up?  The Imagined Futures of Secondary School Men in Kenya\, 1940-1960’
DESCRIPTION:Kenda Mutongi is Professor of Africa History at Williams College.  She is the author of MATATU: A History of Popular Transportation in Nairobi (University of Chicago Press\, 2017)\; and Worries of the Heart: Widows\, Family\, and Community in Kenya (University of Chicago Press\, 2007)\, which received an Honorable Mention from the African Studies Association’s Melville J. Herskovits Award for the best scholarly book on Africa in all disciplines. She has also published articles in the main African studies journals.\n\nHer current project focuses on the history of secondary schooling in Kenya. The study focuses on post-colonial Kenya but also looks back to the turn of the twentieth century when the first schools were established in Kenya. The study will help provide a picture of what it has been like for the students to grow up in a Kenya that is buffeted by all the fears\, expectations\, and contradictions of a new African nation.\n\nMutongi has been a Member at the Institute for Advanced Study in Princeton\, and a fellow at the Radcliffe Institute for Advanced Study at Harvard\, and at the Netherlands Institute for Advanced Study in Amsterdam.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Medicine\, Empire and Difference in the Roman World
DESCRIPTION:'Empires define\, reproduce and order difference among their populations. Medicine has aided and abetted these processes in a variety of ways\, most famously through its contributions to the establishment of modern ‘scientific racism’. Before that Hippocratic environmentalist paradigms dominated many imperial powers: peoples were made the way they were by location and climate\, amongst other externally operative factors\, not by something intrinsic to them and transmissible to their offspring without that outside assistance. This lecture explores how these notions worked in the specific context of the Roman Empire\, with its particular commitments to hierarchy and structure\, its definitional claims and organisational styles. There was congruity\, it is argued\, between the theories of human differentiation articulated by medical authors such as Galen and key features of the imperial formation within which he lived and wrote.'

SUMMARY:Careers / Jobs:Practice Job Talk
DESCRIPTION:Sex Lives of the Early Moderns\nIn this talk I offer a new conceptual and methodological approach to the history of sexuality: the sex life. Colloquial use of the term “sex life” usually takes the form of a value judgment: one’s sex life is either “good” or “bad.” I argue that these seemingly simple value judgments actually signal a host of assumptions about the ways that sex weaves itself—mentally\, physically\, emotionally\, and politically—through everyday life\, and that these assumptions can provide scholars with a useful guide for approaching sex in the past. Such a focus on the lived experience of sexuality can also\, I argue\, help us reconceptualize the lived experience of other\, intersecting vectors of social differentiation and hierarchiziation. Focusing on one such intersection\, the phenomenological imbrication of race and sex\, I analyze the affective scripts that interracial romances like John Fletcher's The Island Princess (1621) offered to early modern playgoers—some of whom\, I show\, may we have been in interracial relationships themselves. Ultimately\, I argue that reading for the sex lives of the early moderns reveals some of the inner workings of racism in a period before \"race\" emerged as an identity category.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:WCED Roundtable. Nigeria’s Elections: Democracy and Disillusionment
DESCRIPTION:In 2015\, Nigerian voters elected a new party for the first time since democratic transition in 1999. Foreign observers hailed the election as a watershed moment for Nigerian democracy and applauded the performance of the country's electoral commission. Many Nigerians hoped that President Muhammadu Buhari would take muscular action against government corruption\, economic recession\, and the Boko Haram insurgency. Four years later\, the Buhari administration's performance has been mixed. Some progress has been made in the northeast against Boko Haram\, but rule of law is worsening in other parts of the country. Corruption remains endemic\, and state governments struggle to pay salaries in the wake of federal budget cuts. At the same time\, a new generation of reformist governors is trying to chart a new path at the state level\, while the country's electoral commission has invested in technology in hopes that it can tamp down on ballot fraud and violence. \n    \nThis panel will examine the prospects for 2019's elections. Will the ruling All Progressives Congress hold onto power? What issues will shape Nigerian voters' choices? What dynamics at the local level are the most important factors to watch? And\, most fundamentally\, will these elections reflect the will of the Nigerian electorate\, or will money and violence continue to play an outsized role in Nigerians' electoral choices? \n    \nOmolade Adunbi is a political anthropologist and an assistant professor of Afroamerican and African studies at the University of Michigan. His areas of research explore issues related to resource distribution\, governance\, human and environmental rights\, power\, culture\, transnational institutions\, multinational corporations and the postcolonial state. His latest book\, \"Oil Wealth and Insurgency in Nigeria\" (Indiana University Press\, 2015) addresses issues related to oil wealth\, multinational corporations\, transnational institutions\, NGOs and violence in oil-rich Niger Delta region of Nigeria. \n    \nAdrienne LeBas is an associate professor of government at American University. She was previously a Prize Research Fellow at Nuffield College\, University of Oxford\, and assistant professor of political science and African studies at Michigan State University. Her research interests include social movements\, democratization\, and political violence. LeBas is the author of the award-winning \"From Protest to Parties: Party-Building and Democratization in Africa\" (Oxford University Press\, 2011) and articles in the British Journal of Political Science\, the Journal of Democracy\, Comparative Politics\, and elsewhere. LeBas also worked as a consultant for Human Rights Watch in Zimbabwe\, where she lived from 2002-03. \n    \nDan Slater specializes in the politics and history of enduring dictatorships and emerging democracies\, with a regional focus on Southeast Asia. He is the Ronald and Eileen Weiser Professor of Emerging Democracies\, professor of political science\, and director of the Weiser Center for Emerging Democracies at the University of Michigan. Previously he was director of the Center for International Social Science Research (CISSR)\, associate professor in the Department of Political Science\, and associate member in the Department of Sociology at the University of Chicago. His book manuscript examining how divergent historical patterns of contentious politics have shaped variation in state power and authoritarian durability in seven Southeast Asian countries\, entitled \"Ordering Power: Contentious Politics and Authoritarian Leviathans in Southeast Asia\,\" was published in the Cambridge Studies in Comparative Politics series in 2010. \n    \nIf you are a person with a disability who requires an accommodation to attend this event\, please reach out to weisercenter@umich.edu at least 2 weeks in advance of this event.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Nam Center for Korean Studies Colloquium Series | Affective Socialism: Love\, Anger\, and War in North Korea
DESCRIPTION:The early Cold War attempt to create a new North Korean cultural field cannot be understood without taking into account a global circulation of ideas\, as well as the history of Japanese colonial rule in Korea (1910-1945)\, U.S. and Soviet military occupation (1945-1948)\, and the Korean War (1950-53). “Affective Socialism” locates the formation of North Korean literature and art within transnational networks of texts and images\, paying particular attention to ways in which portrayals of armed struggle inform the emergence in North Korea of a powerful and lasting familial bond between the people and the state in the 1950s and early 1960s. \n\nTheodore Hughes is Korea Foundation Professor of Korean Studies in the Humanities and Director of the Center for Korean Research at Columbia University. He is the author of \"Literature and Film in Cold War South Korea: Freedom’s Frontier\" (Columbia University Press\, 2012)\, which was awarded the Association for Asian Studies James B. Palais Book Prize. He is the co-editor of \"Intermedial Aesthetics: Korean Literature\, Film\, and Art\" (special issue of the Journal of Korean Studies\, 2015)\; the co-editor of \"Rat Fire: Korean Stories from the Japanese Empire\" (Cornell East Asia Series\, 2013)\, a finalist for the Daesan Literary Prize for Translation\; and the translator of \"Panmunjom and Other Stories by Lee Ho-Chul\" (Norwalk: EastBridge\, 2005). \n\nIf you are a person with a disability who requires an accommodation to attend this event\, please reach out to us at ncks.info@umich.edu at least 2 weeks in advance of this event.

DESCRIPTION:Michigan Alumni Sam Walker will be visiting our university to talk about his book \"The Captain Class.\" CNBC\, The New York Times\, Amazon\, Sport Illustrated and others described \"The Captain Class\" as \"one of the year's best business books.\" \n\nA GREAT LEADER IS NOT WHAT YOU THINK\nMost people believe that leadership is a God-given skill bestowed on the few\; a combination of raw talent\, playmaking ability\, charisma\, dominance\, and emotional extroversion that stands out in a crowd. So when we become leaders\, we rely on what we’ve seen in the movies. We take the clutch shots\, show more emotion\, bark out orders\, stamp out dissent in thelocker room\, and practice speeches in the mirror. Sam Walker’s research shows none of those things are required. Sometimes the best leader on a team isn’t obvious to the outside world. In fact\, it might be the last person you’d expect. \n\nIf you attend this event\, you will receive a free copy of \"The Captain Class\" and gain insight of the 7 researched doable behaviors needed to influence others.

SUMMARY:Other:Internship Posting - UROP International at Rheinisch-Westfälische Technische Hochschule (RWTH) Aachen
DESCRIPTION:UROP International at Aachen is designed for students from North American universities who wish to gain research experience by conducting research projects at RWTH Aachen University. It takes place during a ten-week research summer school between the middle of May and the end of July.\n\nUROP International at Aachen consists of three components: a research project at one of RWTH Aachen's research institutes or labs is at the core.\n\nAdditionally\, students are offered a comprehensive accompanying program: an intensive German course and workshops on intercultural learning\, scientific methods\, and research practice to prepare them for their respective research project.\n\nFurthermore\, the international guests participate in a number of leisure activities to gain a look at German history and culture and meet German and international students at RWTH. Regular get togethers\, excursions in the region\, institute visits\, and much more\, form the framework of the students' stay in Aachen.\n\nThe program’s duration is ten weeks. The first week is dedicated to a Fit for UROP at Aachen workshop\, introducing participants to research and culture\, as well as to an intercultural training\, which allows the students to gain an initial impression of German culture and informs about intercultural differences. Moreover\, the first week is used to settle organizational issues and to make students familiar with RWTH Aachen University and with life in Aachen. Each student is assigned a RWTH student\, who serves as a buddy and mentor during the first steps in Aachen.\n\nFrom the second week to the end of the program\, students work on their research project full time. The German language course starts during the first week and ends at the end of the eighth week. It takes place twice a week in the morning.\n\nThe program is supplemented by numerous leisure activities and excursions with the buddies.  All communication is in English.\n\nStudents will receive a certificate for both their research project and the language class upon successful completion of the program\, marked by the submission of a report and participation in the closing UROP at Aachen Symposium\, where students present project results as part of a research conference. A total of 60 students can annually participate in UROP International at Aachen.\n\nThis program is open to all LSA students but is not administered through the University of Michigan.  You will be eligible to receive German 351 credits (Fall 2019).  Talk to a German advisor about language credits.\n\nWebsite: http://www.rwth-aachen.de/cms/root/Forschung/Angebote-fuer-Forschende/Angebote-fuer-Studierende/UROP/~wmy/UROP-INternational/?lidx=1

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Gifts of Art presents Impressions in Pastel
DESCRIPTION:Sharon Will’s commitment to painting is to capture the simple\, everyday beauty around her in her native Michigan and beyond. She is passionate about painting plein air (outdoors) whenever possible\, as she feels the direct observation from life is the best teacher to truly see the subtleties of light and color in nature. Working on sanded paper\, her process begins with a pastel and alcohol/mineral spirits under-painting wash to establish value and color. Soft pastel is applied in layers\, often in contrasting color and temperatures for vibrancy. Over her 35-year career in painting\, Will has won numerous national awards. She also operates a custom framing business from her home/studio in Washington Township and teaches occasional workshops.

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:Lecture / Discussion:Ancient Infertility: Gender\, Responsibility and Action\, Rebecca Flemming
DESCRIPTION:Infertility was a major concern in the ancient world\, where family continuity was a fundamental aim for all sections of society\, an aim pursued in conditions of very high infant mortality. Doctors and divinities\, laws and states\, all took an interest in encouraging and assisting the production and maintenance of healthy children.\n\nThis seminar focuses on a key problematic within this wider field\, one with obvious modern resonances. That is the tension between the medical understanding of shared responsibility for the inability of a married couple to produce offspring\, that the cause could be the man\, the woman\, or the combination of the two\, and a social and legal framework which was all about his children. It was the husband’s family line that was at stake here. Divorcing a wife who had failed to procreate thus made sense\, for example\, but was it fair? It might not be her fault\, and the obligations of marriage were not solely bound up with the generation of children. But what other courses of action were available? These issues are openly debated in some of the declamations—fictional court speeches—that survive from the Roman Empire\, and these will be read alongside some medical material.

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:Paul Rand: The Designer's Task
DESCRIPTION:Paul Rand's visionary conceptions of brand identity \nPaul Rand was a giant of American design\, whose influential career spanned the second half of the twentieth century. His visionary and pithy conceptions of corporate and non-profit brand identities—though often graphically minimal—embody the artist’s complex philosophy\, interest in modernist aesthetics\, and singular wit. This exhibition features posters\, book covers\, and packaging designs from Rand’s beginnings as a pro bono designer for arts and culture publications like Direction magazine to his decades of crafting trailblazing corporate design for companies such as IBM. Paul Rand: The Designer’s Task affords viewers the opportunity to explore the genre of graphic design within the context of the art museum and examine how Rand’s intellectual process and impact on visual culture developed over time.\n\n

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Proof: The Ryoichi Excavations
DESCRIPTION:A narrative of Ryoichi's archaeological work \nThe story of Japanese archaeologist Ryoichi and evidence of his worldwide excavations are explored by Patrick Nagatani in this series of photographs. Nagatani presents a narrative of Ryoichi’s archaeological work\, supported by images of excavation sites\, unearthed artifacts\, and Ryoichi’s own journal pages. According to the photographs\, Ryoichi discovered evidence of an automobile culture buried at sites across several continents: Stonehenge\, the Grand Canyon\, and a necropolis in China. This provocative and playful series compels viewers to reflect on how photographs and institutions\, such as museums\, shape our knowledge of the past and present.\n\n

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:CWoLa Hunting:  Extending the Bump Hunt with Machine Learning
DESCRIPTION:New physics at the LHC would typically manifest as an anomalous overdensity of events in some phase space region of the high-dimensional feature space of LHC data. The traditional way to search for new physics is to make some theory-motivated guess as to what it will look like\, and then make a phase space selection which is optimized using simulated data and then look in that region for an excess in the real LHC data. Higher sensitivity is often achieved at the expense of introducing stronger assumptions about the underlying signal model\, which are used to make more optimised multivariate cuts using more event features. I will discuss a case study of an alternate paradigm\, in which sensitive multivariate selections can be be found while maintaining few signal-model assumptions and without the need for potentially unreliable signal simulations. The key ingredient is a machine learning algorithm which searches for event over-densities on an otherwise smooth background\, as is often the case in bump hunts for particle resonances. In this 'CWoLa-hunting' (Classification Without Labels) strategy\, the selection cuts are not determined in advance but are rather dictated by the distribution of the actual measured LHC data. I will also provide a summary of some of the other ideas for using machine learning for model-agnostic searches that have been proposed in 2018.

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:Workshop / Seminar:Seminar: Genomic and functional approaches to studying cancer aneuploidy
DESCRIPTION:Studying aneuploidy in cancer models is necessary in order to functionally dissect the role(s) of aneuploidy in tumorigenesis\, and to identify cellular vulnerabilities of aneuploid cancer cells. In order to properly use cancer models in aneuploidy research\, we must understand how faithful their aneuploidy landscapes are to those of their tumors-of-origin\, and dissect their heterogeneity and stability throughout model propagation. In my postdoctoral work I studied three major cancer models to gain insights into cancer aneuploidy\, and – at the same time – I studied aneuploidy landscapes to gain insights into the genomic evolution of cancer models. \nIn a first study\, I generated a comprehensive catalogue of aneuploidy in breast cancer mouse models. Mining this novel resource\, I found that chromosomal aberrations accumulated late during breast tumorigenesis\, and observed marked differences in aneuploidy patterns across mouse mammary tumours initiated with distinct drivers. I then used the mouse data to narrow down the region-of-interest in one of the most recurrent chromosomal changes in  human breast cancer (chr1p loss)\, and identified a gene (Sfn) that contributes to the recurrence of this aneuploidy (Ben-David et al. Nature Communications 2016). \nIn a second study\, I analyzed tumors from patient-derived xenografts (PDXs) and revealed distinct trajectories of aneuploidy evolution in patients and in mice. Importantly\, some recurrent aneuploidies that tended to disappear in PDX models were associated with drug response to anticancer therapies (Ben-David et al. Nature Genetics 2017). \nIn a third study\, I analyzed cancer cell lines and characterized how their genomic evolution altered their transcriptional programs and drug response. This work exposed associations between recurrent chromosomal changes and drug response\, and yielded a novel genetically-matched system to study cancer aneuploidy. \nI will discuss common themes emerging from these studies\, highlighting their relevance to our understanding of cancer aneuploidy and their implications for working with cancer model systems.\n\nSpeaker bio:\nUri did his Ph.D. with Nissim Benvenisty at the Hebrew University of Jerusalem in Israel. His research in the Benvenisty lab focused on the chromosomal instability and the tumorigenicity of human pluripotent stem cells. In the summer of 2014 Uri joined the laboratory of Dr. Todd Golub\, the Director of the Cancer Program at the Broad Institute. In his postdoctoral work\, Uri combined experimental and computational approaches to studying cancer aneuploidy. His work also sheds light on the faithfulness\, heterogeneity and stability of commonly used cancer models.\n\nSponsored by the Life Sciences Institute\, Internal Medicine\, and Pathology.

Refreshments will be served\, and Elizabeth will give a Q&A at approx. 4:30pm.\n\nElizabeth Youngblood is a Detroit-based artist trained and working in a variety of media disciplines including fiber and clay. Recent work is based on drawing/mark making\, with a developing body of photographic work. Both consider themes relating to the passage of time\, but in ways particular the each medium.\n\nYoungblood earned a BFA in ceramics from The University of Michigan\, School of Art (now The Stamps School of Art & Design) and an MFA from Cranbrook Academy of Art working with Katherine McCoy.\n\nSince returning to Detroit after living and working in New York City\, Philadelphia\, and other cities in Pennsylvania and New Jersey\, and teaching at a range of colleges and universities\, Youngblood now maintains a full-time studio practice. Her art is exhibited locally and nationally\, and is represented in both private and public collections.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Department Colloquium | Towards an Inclusive Physics
DESCRIPTION:Three kinds of data are relevant to diversity\, equity\, and inclusion in physics and other fields. Quantitative data about demographics (e.g.\, race and binary gender\, and less often sexual orientation\, other social identities\, and their intersections) are widely available\; student degree completion data from Michigan\, MIT and other departments will be compared. Quantitative and qualitative data about the learning and work environment are sometime available\, as in the 2016 Michigan Campus Climate Survey and in experiences shared by individuals. An institution’s policies and practices represent a third kind of data useful in guiding a department. This presentation will share three case studies on data-driven change from different departments at MIT and will reference recent recommendations from professional societies (APS\, AAS\, AAAS\, NASEM) for improving equity and inclusion. \n

SUMMARY:Other:Taking Inspiration From Bulk: Molecular Electrocatalysis and Magnetization Dynamics of Heterometallic Lanthanide – Transition Metal Complexes
DESCRIPTION:                                                                                                                            The first part of the presentation will introduce our methodology towards improving molecular catalysts for energy relevant conversions. We strategically introduce redox-active and slightly acidic imidazolium moieties into the secondary coordination sphere of molecular CO2 reduction electrocatalysts. Results from systematic comparative studies will be presented that strongly suggest that mechanistic details of catalysis are altered for the new functionalized catalyst systems\, resulting in improved catalytic metrics.\n\nThe second part of the seminar will discuss our strategies to study intramolecular interactions between transition metal (TM) and lanthanide (Ln) ions to generate novel spin systems that can display single-molecule magnet (SMM) properties. SMMs are very attractive candidates for the miniaturization of tunable information storage materials and quantum computing devices. Our work aims to generate heterometallic SMMs that feature either TM···Ln interactions or TM‑Ln bonding. I will present key results of our comprehensive structural and spectroscopic studies which have already led to the development of redox-switchable SMMs\, new molecular platforms to facilitate strong magnetic coupling between Ln3+ ions\, and hard SMM behavior.\"                                                                    \n                       \n                                                \n                       \n                                                \n                       \n                                                \n                       \n                                                \n                       \n                                                \n                       \n                                                \n                       \n                        \nMichael Nippe (Texas A&M University)

SUMMARY:Meeting:Michigan in Washington Information Session
DESCRIPTION:The MIW program offers an opportunity each year for 45-50 undergraduates from any major to spend a semester (Fall or Winter) in Washington D.C. Students combine coursework with an internship that reflects their particular area of interest (such as American politics\, international studies\, history\, the arts\, public health\, economics\, the media\, the environment\, science and technology). The semester in Washington is action packed. Students work four days a week\, attend an elective one evening a week and a research course on Friday mornings. They spend their weekends exploring the city and taking in cultural events. Most leave Washington longing to return.\n\nStudents are free to pursue internships of their own choosing. They are coached in internship searching strategies as part of a prep class that is taken the semester before going to D.C. Students have interned at the White House\, the Smithsonian\, CNN\, Greenpeace\, CBS\, Public Defender’s Service\, Washington Institute for Near East Policy\, NAACP\, The Brookings Institution\, American Enterprise Institute\, National Defense University\, Partnership for Public Service\, Center for American Progress\, Congressional Black Caucus Foundation and many others.\nFUNDING is available for this living and learning program.
