The materials collected in this exhibit\, all held in the Special Collections Research Center\, showcase not only the variety\, beauty\, and originality of turn-of-the-century print-making\, but also new ideas about what a magazine can do: namely\, create distinctive communities around avant-garde ideas outside of mainstream channels. The communities imagined in these magazines are sometimes explicitly political or aesthetic\, but more often both combine in writers’ and artists’ resistance to mass-market\, industrial\, bourgeois\, and nationalist print cultures.\n\nThe magazines in this exhibit are mostly American and British\, but many are distinctively cosmopolitan\, crossing borders to engage with international movements like socialism\, decadence\, and modernism in their attempts to create an audience united by aesthetic and political ideals rather than nationality. Although the little magazines’ resistance to mainstream journalism shortened their lifespan and restricted their circulation\, their experimental approach has had a lasting impact on our sense of magazines as flexible aesthetic and social media.

This allows contemplation of the art making process and careful organization of the parts. As she assembles it piece by piece\, the work grows in a way that closely relates to painting. Bieri received a grant from the State of Michigan in 2000 to study quilts and their patterns. She discovered that they often touch people on a personal level and encourage memories. Whether an army blanket or quilt\, she delights to find a treasure that has a personal history that goes well beyond her and extends to the observer. Hide & Seek\, Bieri’s current series of art quilts incorporating fabrics with history\, encourages viewer interaction and reminiscence. She received a Kresge Fellowship for her fiber pieces in 2017.\n\nGifts of Art Gallery – University Hospital Main Lobby\, Floor 1. \n1500 E.

Some works she created to reach out to a greater power\, while others honor a particular person or joyful time. Her sculptural paper tapestries can be installed in a number of different ways\, reflecting the impermanence of this world. LeBreton lives and works in Chicago and has been working with handmade paper for ten years. She enjoys its surprising properties: it is light and appears fragile\, yet it is also pliable\, absorbs color beautifully\, and is very strong. LeBreton particularly loves papermaking because of the calm that comes from the repeating forms in the process\, and she appreciates working with water for its beauty\, sensuality and healing qualities.\n\nGifts of Art Gallery – Taubman Health Center North Lobby\, Floor 1. \n1500 E.

Howard recognizes that color is important in the food we eat\, the clothes we wear\, our homes\, our cars\, and even our pets. She points out that “there is a great deal more to color than what meets the eye.” Howard utilizes hyper-realism and enhanced depth of field to create highly detailed soft pastel drawings on canvas that are often mistaken for photographs. She uses the beauty and intense color of organic soft pastels to elicit emotional responses from viewers\, recognizing and working with the inherent qualities of color. Also a practicing art therapist\, Howard’s award-winning work has been recognized both nationally and internationally.\n\nGifts of Art Gallery – University Hospital Main Corridor\, Floor 2.\n1500 E.

Sacks\nW.A. Moncrief Chair in Simulation Based Engineering Sciences\nProfessor of Biomedical Engineering\nOden Institute for Computational Sciences and Engineering\nThe University of Texas at Austin\n \n“Structural remodeling and volumetric growth in the heart”\n\nAbstract: \n\nMany cardiac diseases impose pressure overload leading to ventricular enlargement via the growth of cardiac myocytes and remodeling of the collagen fiber architecture. One such disease is pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH)\, which primarily affects the right ventricle (RV). The effects of PAH on the functional behavior of the RV free wall (RVFW) on RV organ-level cardiac function remain largely unexplored. Computational rodent heart models (RHM) of the normal and hypertensive states can be quite valuable in gaining insights into the pathophysiology of myocardium remodeling. Recently\, we developed high-fidelity biventricular finite-element RHMs using extensive data collected from rat hearts at normal and post-PAH time points. In this study\, we extended our model to predict the time-course adaptations of RV under PAH from normal state to post-PAH state. Our model accounted for growth processes driven by sarcomerogenesis and collagen fibrosis\, coupled with myo- and collagen fiber reorientation events. We used our model to investigate the correlations between the alterations in the wall stress\, the remodeling of the RVFW microstructure\, and the shape changes in the RV during the development of PAH. To the best of our knowledge\, this is the first work to investigate the interaction between fiber remodeling and volumetric growth in the heart. Ultimately\, the detailed description of organ-level remodeling patterns predicted by in-silico models such as ours could replace the traditional measures of RV dimensions and volume that often lead to gross and limited information on cardiac performance. Future directions of the research will also be presented.

Religious devotion in ancient Kush (a region located in modern-day northern Sudan)\, involved pilgrimage and leaving informal marks on temples\, pyramids\, and other monumental structures. These graffiti are found in temples throughout the later (“Meroitic”) period of Kush\, when it bordered Roman Egypt. They represent one of the few direct traces of the devotional practices of private people in Kush and hint at individuals’ thoughts\, values\, and daily lives. This exhibition explores the times and places in which Kushite graffiti were inscribed through photos\, text\, and interactive media presentations. At the heart of the show are the hundreds of Meroitic graffiti recently discovered in a rock-cut temple by the Kelsey expedition to El-Kurru in northern Sudan.\n\nCurators: Geoff Emberling and Suzanne Davis\n\nView the online exhibition:\nhttp://exhibitions.kelsey.lsa.umich.edu/graffiti-el-kurru/ UID:63992-16059335@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/63992 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:AEM Featured,Africa,Archaeology,Exhibition,Museum LOCATION:Kelsey Museum of Archaeology CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20190813T083024 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20190905T090000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20190905T120000 SUMMARY:Careers / Jobs:U-M Office of Academic Innovation Career Day DESCRIPTION:The ECRC is hosting a Career Day for U-M Office of Academic Innovation on Thursday\, September 5\, from 9:00 AM to 12:00 PM in the Duderstadt Connector. \n\nThe Center for Academic Innovation (CAI) is offering a number of Fall 2019 fellowship opportunity that are available to University of Michigan undergraduates and graduate students.

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.

During these decades\, the notion that abstraction was a purely formal and American art form\, concerned only with timeless themes disconnected from the present\, was met with increased skepticism. Women artists and artists of color began to actively and assertively explore abstraction’s possibilities. The artworks in Abstraction\, Color\, and Politics: The 1960s and 1970s demonstrate both radical and disarming changes in how artists worked and what they thought their art was about. Their new formal and intellectual strategies—seen here across large-scale and miniature work—dramatically transformed the practice of abstraction in the 1960s and 1970s in a politically shifting American landscape.\n\nUMMA gratefully acknowledges the following donors for their generous support:\n\nLead Exhibition Sponsors: University of Michigan Office of the Provost\, Michigan Medicine\, and College of Literature\, Science\, and the Arts\n\nExhibition Endowment Donors:  Richard and Rosann Noel Endowment Fund\, Herbert W. and Susan L. Johe Endowment\, and Robert and Janet Miller Fund\n\nUniversity of Michigan Funding Partners: Institute for Research on Women and Gender\, School of Social Work\, Department of Political Science\, and Department of Women's Studies UID:63803-15884053@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/63803 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Art,Exhibition,Museum,Politics,UMMA LOCATION:Museum of Art - A.

In place of visible objects\, each plinth is equipped with a speaker from which we hear the word “thing” sung—edited out of and isolated from a range of pop songs. The result is an amusing and thoughtful exploration of language\, meaning\, and the conventions of museum presentation and spectatorship.\n \nThe installation\, like much of Berlin-based artist Ceal Floyer’s art\, is characteristically austere\, but its visual simplicity masks a more complicated message—often a wry cerebral twist the artist creates through language-based symbols and aesthetic devices. Floyer’s work is rooted in conceptual art\, in which the idea\, delivered through words or acts that undercut or supersede formal qualities\, is the essence of the artwork.\n\nLead support  for this exhibition is provided by the University of Michigan College of Engineering and the Herbert W. and Susan L. Johe Endowment. Additional generous support is provided by the University of Michigan Penny W.

Working at the turn of the twentieth century\, Schiele challenged the classical conventions of the day producing emotionally charged—often unsettling—drawings and watercolors depicting landscapes\, portraits\, and nudes. Two retired U-M professors recently gifted four works of art by Schiele to UMMA. Throughout their lifetimes\, Frances McSparran (English language and literature) and the late Ernst Pulgram (Romance and classical linguistics) collected over forty Austrian and German Expressionist works\, donating many of them to the Museum. The three watercolors and one drawing on view in this special installation complement the couple’s previous gifts of works by Schiele and his contemporaries Oskar Kokoschka\, George Grosz\, and Gustav Klimt\, reuniting these important works that together provide important insights into this tumultuous period in European history.        \n\n UID:63428-15694204@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/63428 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Art,European,Exhibition,History,Language,Literature,Museum,UMMA LOCATION:Museum of Art - The Connector CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20190816T220843 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20190905T110000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20190905T120000 SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Strategies for Career Fair Success DESCRIPTION:Long lines\, freebies\, and lots of students suited up-it can only be one thing\, a Career Fair!

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...\n\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.

Two-dimensional crystals consisting of individual layers of van der Waals materials provide an exciting platform to study correlated and topological electronic states. These same crystals can be flexibly restacked into van der Waals heterostructures\, which enable clean interfaces between heterogeneous materials. Such heterostructures enable the isolation and protection of air sensitive 2D materials as well as provide new degrees of freedom for tailoring electronic structure and interactions. In this talk\, I will present experimental work studying electronic transport in monolayer WTe_2. First\, un-doped monolayer WTe_2 exhibits behaviors characteristic of a 2D topological insulator\, including edge mode transport approaching the quantum of conductance up to nearly 100 Kelvin. Second\, we have discovered that the same monolayers display superconductivity at low carrier densities accessible by local field-effect gating through a low-κ dielectric. The concurrence of electrostatically accessible superconductor and topological insulator phases in the same 2D crystal allows us to envision a new model of gate-configurable topological electronic devices. \n UID:65277-16565496@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/65277 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Physics,Science LOCATION:West Hall - 335 CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20190807T115620 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20190905T160000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20190905T170000 SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:EEB Thursday Seminars resume Sept. 12 DESCRIPTION:Have a great summer!

Despite significant advances in MS technology\, currently it is difficult to obtain measurements of both high throughput and high sensitivity for samples with great dynamic ranges such as biofluids and plant extracts. This problem ultimately results in the inability to effectively account for variation among sample conditions and/or biodiversity leading to inconsequential findings for samples which have great variation. To address this challenge\, we have coupled an ion mobility separation (IMS) with MS to afford greatly improved measurement throughput\, sensitivity\, robustness\, and quantitative capabilities for rapid analysis of complex samples. The benefits we have observed in omic studies of biological and environmental samples with IMS-MS will be summarized in this presentation. \n \n \n \n \n \nErin Baker (NC State) UID:64170-16179703@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/64170 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Biosciences,Chemistry,Science LOCATION:Chemistry Dow Lab - 1640 CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20190920T123043 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20190905T160000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20190905T170000 SUMMARY:Careers / Jobs:Internship Lab DESCRIPTION:Are you ready to start searching for a great internship?

Terra’s stunning\, soulful voice powers her emotional wallops on her latest album \"New Mistakes\,\" laid low as a gentle whisper over the swirling finger-picking of “You Get High\,” or belted out with nuclear swagger over the rock ’n’ soul grooves of “Hold You\,” battling things out with a righteous Jake Clemons sax solo during its climax.

The materials collected in this exhibit\, all held in the Special Collections Research Center\, showcase not only the variety\, beauty\, and originality of turn-of-the-century print-making\, but also new ideas about what a magazine can do: namely\, create distinctive communities around avant-garde ideas outside of mainstream channels. The communities imagined in these magazines are sometimes explicitly political or aesthetic\, but more often both combine in writers’ and artists’ resistance to mass-market\, industrial\, bourgeois\, and nationalist print cultures.\n\nThe magazines in this exhibit are mostly American and British\, but many are distinctively cosmopolitan\, crossing borders to engage with international movements like socialism\, decadence\, and modernism in their attempts to create an audience united by aesthetic and political ideals rather than nationality. Although the little magazines’ resistance to mainstream journalism shortened their lifespan and restricted their circulation\, their experimental approach has had a lasting impact on our sense of magazines as flexible aesthetic and social media.

Wright\, a life-long Ann Arborite\, and his wife Kathleen Wright\, have been finding evidence of fairies in their home since 1993. In 2005\, fairy doors began to appear in downtown Ann Arbor and Jonathan began documenting them in earnest as a certified fairyologist. He studied graphic design\, architecture and illustration\, while Kathleen is a teacher of young children\, a writer and professional storyteller. Together they discover the stories behind the fairy doors. Though Jonathan’s multi-media works require no shortage of labor\, he says\, \"imagination is the key to the fairy doors.\"\n\nGifts of Art Gallery – University Hospital Main Corridor\, Floor 2.\n1500 E.

This allows contemplation of the art making process and careful organization of the parts. As she assembles it piece by piece\, the work grows in a way that closely relates to painting. Bieri received a grant from the State of Michigan in 2000 to study quilts and their patterns. She discovered that they often touch people on a personal level and encourage memories. Whether an army blanket or quilt\, she delights to find a treasure that has a personal history that goes well beyond her and extends to the observer. Hide & Seek\, Bieri’s current series of art quilts incorporating fabrics with history\, encourages viewer interaction and reminiscence. She received a Kresge Fellowship for her fiber pieces in 2017.\n\nGifts of Art Gallery – University Hospital Main Lobby\, Floor 1. \n1500 E.

Some works she created to reach out to a greater power\, while others honor a particular person or joyful time. Her sculptural paper tapestries can be installed in a number of different ways\, reflecting the impermanence of this world. LeBreton lives and works in Chicago and has been working with handmade paper for ten years. She enjoys its surprising properties: it is light and appears fragile\, yet it is also pliable\, absorbs color beautifully\, and is very strong. LeBreton particularly loves papermaking because of the calm that comes from the repeating forms in the process\, and she appreciates working with water for its beauty\, sensuality and healing qualities.\n\nGifts of Art Gallery – Taubman Health Center North Lobby\, Floor 1. \n1500 E.

She uses the beauty and intense color of organic soft pastels to elicit emotional responses from viewers\, recognizing and working with the inherent qualities of color.

Religious devotion in ancient Kush (a region located in modern-day northern Sudan)\, involved pilgrimage and leaving informal marks on temples\, pyramids\, and other monumental structures. These graffiti are found in temples throughout the later (“Meroitic”) period of Kush\, when it bordered Roman Egypt. They represent one of the few direct traces of the devotional practices of private people in Kush and hint at individuals’ thoughts\, values\, and daily lives. This exhibition explores the times and places in which Kushite graffiti were inscribed through photos\, text\, and interactive media presentations. At the heart of the show are the hundreds of Meroitic graffiti recently discovered in a rock-cut temple by the Kelsey expedition to El-Kurru in northern Sudan.\n\nCurators: Geoff Emberling and Suzanne Davis\n\nView the online exhibition:\nhttp://exhibitions.kelsey.lsa.umich.edu/graffiti-el-kurru/ UID:63992-16059336@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/63992 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:AEM Featured,Africa,Archaeology,Exhibition,Museum LOCATION:Kelsey Museum of Archaeology CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20190813T084316 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20190906T090000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20190906T150000 SUMMARY:Careers / Jobs:FCA Career Day DESCRIPTION:The ECRC is hosting a Company Day for Fiat Chrysler Automobiles on Friday\, September 6\, from 9:00 AM to 3:00 PM in the Duderstadt Atrium\, Portico\, and Plaza.\n\nStop by and see our vehicles that will be displayed on the North Campus Diag\, and talk with a FCA representative!

Using a merged survey and administrative dataset with data on consumer search intensity\, I show that consumer failure to recall the interest rate is associated with paying a much higher rate. I estimate a structural model of sequential search in which recall/non-recall of the interest rate forms a consumer type known to firms. Price discrimination explains 90 percent of the interest rate penalty paid by the inattentive consumer type\, with differences in consumer preferences and search behavior explaining the remainder.

Refreshments will be served. \n\nCindy Sowers received her B.A. from Oakland University\, her M.A. from University of Michigan in Comparative Literature\, and her Ph.D. also from the University of Michigan in Comparative Literature. During her Masters program in 1973\, she started teaching at the Residential College in the First Year Seminar and French programs. Her dissertation\, The Shared Structure of Craft and Song: A Study of Homer’s Narrative Art\, revealed passions for narrative and visual analysis comparatively understood that would characterize her teaching thereafter. She participated in an interdisciplinary group composed of Residential College humanities and fine arts faculty who together constructed the Arts and Ideas in the Humanities concentration. Cindy's recent course offerings have included critical approaches to the literature and visual arts of classic modernism\, postmodernism\, Shakespeare and Rome\, the heritage of Greece\, the psychoanalytic interpretation of the arts\, and many others. She combines analyses of literary texts\, visual arts\, and philosophy to hone in on the animating spirit of a cultural moment and space. She has presented at the Royal Shakespeare Company's 2006 U-M residency\, as part of the RC Faculty Colloquium\, for the LSA Comparative Literature and the Colloquium on Critical Theory sponsored by the LSA Department of English Language and Literature\, and at the Residential College's 50th Anniversary celebration.

In many applications\, pre-specified restrictions are imposed on the parameter space of latent class models\, through a design matrix\, to reflect practitioners' diagnostic assumptions about how the observed responses depend on the respondents' latent traits. Though widely used in various fields\, such restricted latent class models suffer from nonidentifiability due to the models' discrete nature and complex restricted structure. This talk addresses the fundamental identifiability issue of restricted latent class models by developing a general framework for strict and partial identifiability of the model parameters. The developed identifiability conditions only depend on the design matrix and are easily checkable\, which provides useful practical guidelines for designing statistically valid diagnostic tests. Furthermore\, the new theoretical framework is applied to establish\, for the first time\, identifiability of several designs from cognitive diagnosis applications.

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.

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\nUMMA gratefully acknowledges the following donors for their generous support of this exhibition:\n\nLead Exhibition Sponsors: University of Michigan Office of the Provost\, Michigan Medicine\, and College of Literature\, Science\, and the Arts\n\nExhibition Endowment Donors:  Richard and Rosann Noel Endowment Fund\, Herbert W. and Susan L. Johe Endowment\, and Robert and Janet Miller Fund\n\nUniversity of Michigan Funding Partners: Institute for Research on Women and Gender\, School of Social Work\, Department of Political Science\, and Department of Women's Studies UID:58562-14511255@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/58562 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Art,Exhibition,Museum,Politics,UMMA LOCATION:Museum of Art - A.

During these decades\, the notion that abstraction was a purely formal and American art form\, concerned only with timeless themes disconnected from the present\, was met with increased skepticism. Women artists and artists of color began to actively and assertively explore abstraction’s possibilities. The artworks in Abstraction\, Color\, and Politics: The 1960s and 1970s demonstrate both radical and disarming changes in how artists worked and what they thought their art was about. Their new formal and intellectual strategies—seen here across large-scale and miniature work—dramatically transformed the practice of abstraction in the 1960s and 1970s in a politically shifting American landscape.\n\nUMMA gratefully acknowledges the following donors for their generous support:\n\nLead Exhibition Sponsors: University of Michigan Office of the Provost\, Michigan Medicine\, and College of Literature\, Science\, and the Arts\n\nExhibition Endowment Donors:  Richard and Rosann Noel Endowment Fund\, Herbert W. and Susan L. Johe Endowment\, and Robert and Janet Miller Fund\n\nUniversity of Michigan Funding Partners: Institute for Research on Women and Gender\, School of Social Work\, Department of Political Science\, and Department of Women's Studies UID:63803-15884054@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/63803 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Art,Exhibition,Museum,Politics,UMMA LOCATION:Museum of Art - A.

In place of visible objects\, each plinth is equipped with a speaker from which we hear the word “thing” sung—edited out of and isolated from a range of pop songs. The result is an amusing and thoughtful exploration of language\, meaning\, and the conventions of museum presentation and spectatorship.\n \nThe installation\, like much of Berlin-based artist Ceal Floyer’s art\, is characteristically austere\, but its visual simplicity masks a more complicated message—often a wry cerebral twist the artist creates through language-based symbols and aesthetic devices. Floyer’s work is rooted in conceptual art\, in which the idea\, delivered through words or acts that undercut or supersede formal qualities\, is the essence of the artwork.\n\nLead support  for this exhibition is provided by the University of Michigan College of Engineering and the Herbert W. and Susan L. Johe Endowment. Additional generous support is provided by the University of Michigan Penny W.

Working at the turn of the twentieth century\, Schiele challenged the classical conventions of the day producing emotionally charged—often unsettling—drawings and watercolors depicting landscapes\, portraits\, and nudes. Two retired U-M professors recently gifted four works of art by Schiele to UMMA. Throughout their lifetimes\, Frances McSparran (English language and literature) and the late Ernst Pulgram (Romance and classical linguistics) collected over forty Austrian and German Expressionist works\, donating many of them to the Museum. The three watercolors and one drawing on view in this special installation complement the couple’s previous gifts of works by Schiele and his contemporaries Oskar Kokoschka\, George Grosz\, and Gustav Klimt\, reuniting these important works that together provide important insights into this tumultuous period in European history.        \n\n UID:63428-15694205@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/63428 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Art,European,Exhibition,History,Language,Literature,Museum,UMMA LOCATION:Museum of Art - The Connector CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20190921T063037 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20190906T110000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20190906T130000 SUMMARY:Careers / Jobs:Resume Lab for UROP DESCRIPTION:For UROP students\n\nJust getting started building a resume?

The framework includes high-fidelity models for: 1) vehicle flight dynamics\, 2) Wind Over Deck (WOD)\, 3) ground effect\, 4) ship deck motion\, and 5) a robust flight control system.\n\nApproach simulations were performed to assess the influence of WOD and ground effect on the UH-60A helicopter response. The WOD velocities were obtained from Detached Eddy Simulation of flow over a SFS2 ship. A gain scheduled LQR controller was used to track the approach trajectory. The WOD resulted in high frequency oscillations in the CG position coordinates and attitude angles. Oblique WOD conditions required greater control effort than the headwind case. Ground effect\, modeled using a simple scaling factor\, caused an 11.3% decrease in rotor power consumption.\n\nA finite-state ground effect model was subsequently implemented to study the influence of inclined and moving decks. Hover and landing simulations were performed with a deck inclined at constant roll and pitch angles\, and a deck undergoing isolated sinusoidal motion. Static deck roll produced an increase in the lateral inflow coefficient and the longitudinal cyclic input to the main rotor. Power requirements were significantly affected by heaving deck motion\, highlighting the importance of modeling dynamic ground effect.

Academe is a “culture of cruelty”. Academics are “mean and nasty”. Really??? In this presentation\, we will test the veracity of these characterizations through an examination of the global research literature on bullying and mobbing in the academic workplace. Specifically\, we will explore the unique features of 1) academe (academic freedom\, shared governance) and the nature of the university as a “workplace” and 2) faculty as “ workers” as well as 3) the broader social\, political and economic context for how they shape the prevalence\, nature\, dynamics\, impact of\, and response to bullying and mobbing. Key insights include the status-based nature of bullying\, our colleagues\, the public\, and the state as powerful actors\, and the critical influence of culturally shaped behavioral norms in defining what is and is not bullying\, who should be involved in assessing and addressing bullying\, and some practical strategies for amelioration.

Water is the elixir of life\, as we know\, and as such\, the central theme of space missions chasing after water in the solar system (e.g.\, Mars\, Europa\, Titan). \n\nOur home planet is unique in the inner solar system for the presence of liquid surface water. It is only ~30 years ago that the Earth’s mantle was discovered to contain one ocean-worth water stored as OH in nominally anhydrous minerals (e.g.\, olivine\, pyroxene). Despite these small relative abundances\, water in the Earth’s mantle plays dramatic roles in many geological processes\, from forming surface water through volcanic degassing to causing chemical and physical changes in the mantle. The search of water IN and ON the terrestrial bodies represents the logical extension of our knowledge of water on Earth. \n\nRecently\, our Moon has become the focus of such searches for water. The remote-sensed data has showed there is wide-spread “water” on the Moon (e.g.\, Pieters et al.\, 2009\; Colaprete et al.\, 2011). However\, it does not provide unambiguous ground-truth of water IN lunar soils. Toward this aspect\, my colleagues and I have examined several Apollo lunar soils. Our results provide evidence for the first identification of OH in lunar soils that were derived from both solar-wind and non-solar-wind sources (Liu et al.\, 2012a)\, versus H in lunar volcanic glass. Proving solar-wind-formed water on the Moon is important in searching for water on other airless bodies in the solar system. The on-going missions to Mercury and 4 Vesta have actually observed minor amounts of water on these airless bodies\, but are they similar to that on the Moon? \n\nMars\, on the other hand\, is the only other planet with clear signs of past/present liquid water. As such\, “follow the water” has been the central focus of NASA’s martian exploration program. However\, questions remain on when\, where\, and how water comes and goes on Mars. We recently recognized that impact melt pockets in martian meteorites record signatures of subsurface water\, and thus provide an unique if not only tool to examine subsurface water reservoirs on Mars (Chen et al.\, 2015\; Liu et al.\, 2018). \n\nHere\, I present results from my research on lunar and martian samples\, and discuss future directions toward searching for water on the inner solar system bodies.

The materials collected in this exhibit\, all held in the Special Collections Research Center\, showcase not only the variety\, beauty\, and originality of turn-of-the-century print-making\, but also new ideas about what a magazine can do: namely\, create distinctive communities around avant-garde ideas outside of mainstream channels. The communities imagined in these magazines are sometimes explicitly political or aesthetic\, but more often both combine in writers’ and artists’ resistance to mass-market\, industrial\, bourgeois\, and nationalist print cultures.\n\nThe magazines in this exhibit are mostly American and British\, but many are distinctively cosmopolitan\, crossing borders to engage with international movements like socialism\, decadence\, and modernism in their attempts to create an audience united by aesthetic and political ideals rather than nationality. Although the little magazines’ resistance to mainstream journalism shortened their lifespan and restricted their circulation\, their experimental approach has had a lasting impact on our sense of magazines as flexible aesthetic and social media.

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.

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\nUMMA gratefully acknowledges the following donors for their generous support of this exhibition:\n\nLead Exhibition Sponsors: University of Michigan Office of the Provost\, Michigan Medicine\, and College of Literature\, Science\, and the Arts\n\nExhibition Endowment Donors:  Richard and Rosann Noel Endowment Fund\, Herbert W. and Susan L. Johe Endowment\, and Robert and Janet Miller Fund\n\nUniversity of Michigan Funding Partners: Institute for Research on Women and Gender\, School of Social Work\, Department of Political Science\, and Department of Women's Studies UID:58562-14511256@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/58562 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Art,Exhibition,Museum,Politics,UMMA LOCATION:Museum of Art - A.

During these decades\, the notion that abstraction was a purely formal and American art form\, concerned only with timeless themes disconnected from the present\, was met with increased skepticism. Women artists and artists of color began to actively and assertively explore abstraction’s possibilities. The artworks in Abstraction\, Color\, and Politics: The 1960s and 1970s demonstrate both radical and disarming changes in how artists worked and what they thought their art was about. Their new formal and intellectual strategies—seen here across large-scale and miniature work—dramatically transformed the practice of abstraction in the 1960s and 1970s in a politically shifting American landscape.\n\nUMMA gratefully acknowledges the following donors for their generous support:\n\nLead Exhibition Sponsors: University of Michigan Office of the Provost\, Michigan Medicine\, and College of Literature\, Science\, and the Arts\n\nExhibition Endowment Donors:  Richard and Rosann Noel Endowment Fund\, Herbert W. and Susan L. Johe Endowment\, and Robert and Janet Miller Fund\n\nUniversity of Michigan Funding Partners: Institute for Research on Women and Gender\, School of Social Work\, Department of Political Science\, and Department of Women's Studies UID:63803-15884055@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/63803 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Art,Exhibition,Museum,Politics,UMMA LOCATION:Museum of Art - A.

In place of visible objects\, each plinth is equipped with a speaker from which we hear the word “thing” sung—edited out of and isolated from a range of pop songs. The result is an amusing and thoughtful exploration of language\, meaning\, and the conventions of museum presentation and spectatorship.\n \nThe installation\, like much of Berlin-based artist Ceal Floyer’s art\, is characteristically austere\, but its visual simplicity masks a more complicated message—often a wry cerebral twist the artist creates through language-based symbols and aesthetic devices. Floyer’s work is rooted in conceptual art\, in which the idea\, delivered through words or acts that undercut or supersede formal qualities\, is the essence of the artwork.\n\nLead support  for this exhibition is provided by the University of Michigan College of Engineering and the Herbert W. and Susan L. Johe Endowment. Additional generous support is provided by the University of Michigan Penny W.

Working at the turn of the twentieth century\, Schiele challenged the classical conventions of the day producing emotionally charged—often unsettling—drawings and watercolors depicting landscapes\, portraits\, and nudes. Two retired U-M professors recently gifted four works of art by Schiele to UMMA. Throughout their lifetimes\, Frances McSparran (English language and literature) and the late Ernst Pulgram (Romance and classical linguistics) collected over forty Austrian and German Expressionist works\, donating many of them to the Museum. The three watercolors and one drawing on view in this special installation complement the couple’s previous gifts of works by Schiele and his contemporaries Oskar Kokoschka\, George Grosz\, and Gustav Klimt\, reuniting these important works that together provide important insights into this tumultuous period in European history.        \n\n UID:63428-15694206@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/63428 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Art,European,Exhibition,History,Language,Literature,Museum,UMMA LOCATION:Museum of Art - The Connector CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20190805T093506 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20190907T110000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20190907T112000 SUMMARY:Presentation:Science Forum Demo: Counting Cells DESCRIPTION:Join us in the Science Forum for 15-20 minute engaging science demonstrations that will help you see the world around you in a whole new way.

Religious devotion in ancient Kush (a region located in modern-day northern Sudan)\, involved pilgrimage and leaving informal marks on temples\, pyramids\, and other monumental structures. These graffiti are found in temples throughout the later (“Meroitic”) period of Kush\, when it bordered Roman Egypt. They represent one of the few direct traces of the devotional practices of private people in Kush and hint at individuals’ thoughts\, values\, and daily lives. This exhibition explores the times and places in which Kushite graffiti were inscribed through photos\, text\, and interactive media presentations. At the heart of the show are the hundreds of Meroitic graffiti recently discovered in a rock-cut temple by the Kelsey expedition to El-Kurru in northern Sudan.\n\nCurators: Geoff Emberling and Suzanne Davis\n\nView the online exhibition:\nhttp://exhibitions.kelsey.lsa.umich.edu/graffiti-el-kurru/ UID:63992-16059337@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/63992 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:AEM Featured,Africa,Archaeology,Exhibition,Museum LOCATION:Kelsey Museum of Archaeology CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20190904T114403 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20190907T130000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20190907T140000 SUMMARY:Other:MIW Application Deadline-September 23\, 2019 DESCRIPTION:Application deadline for regular admission Winter 2020 and early admission Fall 2020.

The materials collected in this exhibit\, all held in the Special Collections Research Center\, showcase not only the variety\, beauty\, and originality of turn-of-the-century print-making\, but also new ideas about what a magazine can do: namely\, create distinctive communities around avant-garde ideas outside of mainstream channels. The communities imagined in these magazines are sometimes explicitly political or aesthetic\, but more often both combine in writers’ and artists’ resistance to mass-market\, industrial\, bourgeois\, and nationalist print cultures.\n\nThe magazines in this exhibit are mostly American and British\, but many are distinctively cosmopolitan\, crossing borders to engage with international movements like socialism\, decadence\, and modernism in their attempts to create an audience united by aesthetic and political ideals rather than nationality. Although the little magazines’ resistance to mainstream journalism shortened their lifespan and restricted their circulation\, their experimental approach has had a lasting impact on our sense of magazines as flexible aesthetic and social media.

Much has been said regarding these refugees\, but all too often the voices of refugees themselves are left out of the conversation.\n\nThis exhibit uses the data collected from a Photovoice project\, combining photography and transcriptions from groups discussions with adolescent refugees to better understand the lived experiences of adolescent refugees. The gallery highlights five main themes that were discussed: Stability and Security\, Interpersonal Difficulties\, Rooting Factors\, Personal Growth\, and Contribution.\n\n“I wish I could help out people… Imma give them everything.

Demonstrations are appropriate for visitors ages 5 and above. \n\nThe human body is made of more than 37 trillion cells. Most of them need to be replaced every couple of months\, weeks\, or sometimes in the course of only a few days. Our cells grow and divide constantly to get this massive job done. But how do cells replicate themselves? How do things move in\, out\, and around the cell\, and into new cells? Join us as we explore how our bodies carry out this massive process. We will learn about cell structure and division and observe cells up-close and in action! \nFunded by the National Science Foundation.

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.

During these decades\, the notion that abstraction was a purely formal and American art form\, concerned only with timeless themes disconnected from the present\, was met with increased skepticism. Women artists and artists of color began to actively and assertively explore abstraction’s possibilities. The artworks in Abstraction\, Color\, and Politics: The 1960s and 1970s demonstrate both radical and disarming changes in how artists worked and what they thought their art was about. Their new formal and intellectual strategies—seen here across large-scale and miniature work—dramatically transformed the practice of abstraction in the 1960s and 1970s in a politically shifting American landscape.\n\nUMMA gratefully acknowledges the following donors for their generous support:\n\nLead Exhibition Sponsors: University of Michigan Office of the Provost\, Michigan Medicine\, and College of Literature\, Science\, and the Arts\n\nExhibition Endowment Donors:  Richard and Rosann Noel Endowment Fund\, Herbert W. and Susan L. Johe Endowment\, and Robert and Janet Miller Fund\n\nUniversity of Michigan Funding Partners: Institute for Research on Women and Gender\, School of Social Work\, Department of Political Science\, and Department of Women's Studies UID:63803-15884056@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/63803 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Art,Exhibition,Museum,Politics,UMMA LOCATION:Museum of Art - A.

In place of visible objects\, each plinth is equipped with a speaker from which we hear the word “thing” sung—edited out of and isolated from a range of pop songs. The result is an amusing and thoughtful exploration of language\, meaning\, and the conventions of museum presentation and spectatorship.\n \nThe installation\, like much of Berlin-based artist Ceal Floyer’s art\, is characteristically austere\, but its visual simplicity masks a more complicated message—often a wry cerebral twist the artist creates through language-based symbols and aesthetic devices. Floyer’s work is rooted in conceptual art\, in which the idea\, delivered through words or acts that undercut or supersede formal qualities\, is the essence of the artwork.\n\nLead support  for this exhibition is provided by the University of Michigan College of Engineering and the Herbert W. and Susan L. Johe Endowment. Additional generous support is provided by the University of Michigan Penny W.

Working at the turn of the twentieth century\, Schiele challenged the classical conventions of the day producing emotionally charged—often unsettling—drawings and watercolors depicting landscapes\, portraits\, and nudes. Two retired U-M professors recently gifted four works of art by Schiele to UMMA. Throughout their lifetimes\, Frances McSparran (English language and literature) and the late Ernst Pulgram (Romance and classical linguistics) collected over forty Austrian and German Expressionist works\, donating many of them to the Museum. The three watercolors and one drawing on view in this special installation complement the couple’s previous gifts of works by Schiele and his contemporaries Oskar Kokoschka\, George Grosz\, and Gustav Klimt\, reuniting these important works that together provide important insights into this tumultuous period in European history.        \n\n UID:63428-15694207@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/63428 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Art,European,Exhibition,History,Language,Literature,Museum,UMMA LOCATION:Museum of Art - The Connector CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20190805T093306 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20190908T120000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20190908T123000 SUMMARY:Other:Wonderful World of Whales Tour DESCRIPTION:Tours are about 30 minutes long and are limited to 15 people per tour group.

Religious devotion in ancient Kush (a region located in modern-day northern Sudan)\, involved pilgrimage and leaving informal marks on temples\, pyramids\, and other monumental structures. These graffiti are found in temples throughout the later (“Meroitic”) period of Kush\, when it bordered Roman Egypt.

Perhaps as a result of his childhood experiences\, he has explored themes of memory\, death\, and mourning in a variety of media—film\, paint\, photography\, and found objects. His evocative\, often ephemeral installations archive and memorialize anonymous individual loss. Monument to the Lycée Chases is part of a series of works Boltanski began in 1987\, inspired by a found photograph of the 1931 graduating class from a private Jewish high school in Vienna\, Austria. His re-photographed images are mere silhouettes or intimations of corporal presences that together comprise a moving meditation on loss and endurance.  \n\n UID:64115-16163565@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/64115 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Art,Film,Media,Museum,UMMA LOCATION:Museum of Art CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20190613T161817 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20190908T140000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20190908T150000 SUMMARY:Other:Curator Tour | Graffiti as Devotion along the Nile DESCRIPTION:Ancient graffiti provide a unique glimpse into the lives of individuals in antiquity.

He wanted to finally create the full-length acoustic collection his fans had long requested. But he was also itching to capture the sound of his stalwart electric trio augmented by a couple of his favorite collaborators. And the time was certainly right for an elastic\, career-spanning double-live album. So Sonny and his longtime friends decided to do it all. \"Recorded Live in Lafayette\" is a 16-song opus that covers more musical ground than any single album ever could\, as the singer and songwriter’s work stretches and twists across 93 minutes of full-band acoustic and electric bottleneck lightning. You can get a taste of the magic without going to Lafayette right here at The Ark—Sonny Landreth is one of the great live guitarists of our time!

The materials collected in this exhibit\, all held in the Special Collections Research Center\, showcase not only the variety\, beauty\, and originality of turn-of-the-century print-making\, but also new ideas about what a magazine can do: namely\, create distinctive communities around avant-garde ideas outside of mainstream channels. The communities imagined in these magazines are sometimes explicitly political or aesthetic\, but more often both combine in writers’ and artists’ resistance to mass-market\, industrial\, bourgeois\, and nationalist print cultures.\n\nThe magazines in this exhibit are mostly American and British\, but many are distinctively cosmopolitan\, crossing borders to engage with international movements like socialism\, decadence\, and modernism in their attempts to create an audience united by aesthetic and political ideals rather than nationality. Although the little magazines’ resistance to mainstream journalism shortened their lifespan and restricted their circulation\, their experimental approach has had a lasting impact on our sense of magazines as flexible aesthetic and social media.

We study the relationship between discretion and corruption in Italian government procurement auctions\, using a confidential database of firms and procurement officials investigated for corruption by Italian enforcement authorities. We show that discretionary procedure auctions (those awarded on the basis of negotiated rather than open bidding) are associated with corruption only when conducted with fewer than the formally required number of bidders\; we similarly find that discretionary criteria (``scoring rule'' rather than first price) auctions are won more often by firms investigated for corruption. We show that these ``corruptible'' discretionary auctions are chosen more often by officials who are themselves investigated for corruption\, but less often in investigated procurement administrations (those in which enforcement authorities are investigating at least one procurement official). These findings fit with a model in which more discretion leads to greater efficiency as well as more opportunities for theft\, and a central monitor manages this tradeoff by limiting discretion in high-corruption locales. Finally\, we present two additional sets of analyses which suggest that monitors also use two standard tools -- turnover and subcontracting limits -- to further constrain auction officials in high corruption areas.\n\nFrancesco Decarolis\, Raymond Fisman\, Paolo Pinotti\, and Silvia Vannutelli UID:65825-16660088@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/65825 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Economics,seminar LOCATION:North Quad - 3100 (Ehrlicher Room) CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20190909T181627 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20190909T120000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20190909T130000 SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Quantitative Biology Seminar | Timeseries Analysis of Stochastic Systems with Hidden Components DESCRIPTION:Despite dramatic advances in experimental techniques\, many facets of intracellular dynamics remain hidden\, or can be measured only indirectly. In this talk\, I will describe two strategies to analyze stochastic timeseries data from biological systems with hidden parts: replacement of multi-step process with a time delay distribution or quasi-steady-state. Then\, I will illustrate how these strategies are applied to understand the processes of protein synthesis\, which involves multiple steps such as transcription\, translation\, folding and maturation\, but typically whose intermediates proteins cannot be measured. Furthermore\, drugs are also cleared out from our body in multiple steps of metabolism. To estimate the rate of drug clearance\, which is a critical factor determining the dose level\, a canonical approach has been used in more than 65\,000 published papers for last 30 years. I will point out the critical limitation of the canonical approach and propose an alternative approach\, which leads to accurate and precise estimation of drug clearance rate. \n UID:66309-16727886@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/66309 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Physics,Science LOCATION:West Hall - 335 CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20190829T092520 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20190909T123000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20190909T140000 SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:PhD Workshop: Secrets from the other side...What the industry recruiter at the PhD level knows that you don't DESCRIPTION:Wouldn't it be great if you had a clear understanding of what a recruiter and/or hiring manager was looking for in a new employee - before your interview?

Corporate investments are safer and have more diversified ownership than noncorporate alternatives\, so a reduction in corporate activity contributes to income dispersion and thereby increases income inequality. This effect is so large that higher corporate taxes can be associated with greater income inequality even when the corporate tax burden falls entirely on capital owned disproportionately by the rich. Risk considerations alone imply that a ten percent higher U.S. corporate tax rate increases the concentration of top U.S. incomes by 1.3-2.9 percent\, which may more than offset the distributional effect of reducing average returns to capital.

Nociceptors are sensory neurons tasked with the detection of pain producing stimuli. Persistent changes in their activity\, termed plasticity\, benefit survival through injury avoidance. Nociceptors rely on cap-dependent translation to rapidly increase protein synthesis in response to pro-inflammatory signals. Comparatively little is known regarding the role of the regulatory factors bound to the 3' end of mRNA in nociceptor sensitization. Poly(A)-binding protein (PABP) stimulates translation initiation by bridging the Poly(A) tail to the eukaryotic initiation factor 4F complex associated with the mRNA cap. We have developed an RNA-based competitive inhibitor of PABP that attenuates behavioral responses to pain in mice. To identify the Poly(A) mRNAs subject to privileged translation in response to noxious cues\, we have applied ribosome profiling to primary sensory neurons and tissues. A small number of transcripts are selectively translated in response to plasticity mediators. Among them is the capsid forming protein Arc. Arc has been implicated in synaptic plasticity and learning in the brain. We demonstrate that the ribosomal S6 kinase 1 is responsible for Arc production in nociceptors and describe a new role for local translation of Arc in afferent fibers. Collectively\, our findings uncover mechanisms and targets of RNA control in sensory neurons that can be exploited to disrupt pain signaling.

However\, tracking of this “research-to-practice” translation has found that it can take 17 years for treatment innovations to reach frontline care settings. Moreover\, only 1 in 5 of these treatments are ultimately sustained in real-world practice. This research-to-practice gap wastes millions of dollars that are invested in research on treatment discoveries that do not make it into the hands of patients who can ultimately benefit from them. Key barriers to implementing treatment innovations into routine practice include lack of planning to prepare frontline clinicians in their adoption\, lack of opportunities to adapt innovations across diverse patient populations\, and limited incentives for health care organizations to sustain innovations once the research study ends. This talk will describe novel research approaches to help close the gap between innovation and implementation\, notably the new VA Quality Enhancement Research Initiative (QUERI) Implementation Roadmap and accompanying Implementation Strategy Training Hubs. We also describe novel designs such as sequential multiple assignment randomized trial (SMART) and adaptive designs\, that can help determine which implementation strategies are most effective in overcoming provider and organizational barriers to treatment adoption\, and how these designs and implementation strategies can be applied to settings outside the clinic walls such as schools. We also describe the challenges in conducting these studies to determine the best implementation strategies and the active ingredients for such studies to ultimately inform health systems in the successful spread of innovations to ultimately improve patient outcomes.\n \nDr. Amy M. Kilbourne\, PhD\, MPH is Director of the VA Quality Enhancement Research Initiative (QUERI) and Professor of Psychiatry at the University of Michigan (UM) Medical School. With over 40 centers across the U.S.\, the mission of QUERI is to improve Veteran health by accelerating the implementation of research findings into real-world practice. Dr. Kilbourne’s goal is to improve Veteran health through implementation science\, i.e.\, the use of strategies to help providers scale up and spread effective practices in real-world treatment settings. She has led several national improvement initiatives including a VA national population management program to provide outreach services for Veterans with serious mental illness (Re-Engage) and a community care implementation research roadmap. Dr. Kilbourne is the recipient of several awards including the Presidential Early Career Award for Scientists and Engineers (PECASE) and the Gerald L. Klerman Research Award from the Depression and Bipolar Support Alliance (DBSA). Dr. Kilbourne received her bachelors of arts at the University of California at Berkeley (double major in molecular biology and rhetoric)\, and her masters in epidemiology and PhD in health policy from the University of California Los Angeles.\n\nThis is the first of our weekly seminars this semester.

The materials collected in this exhibit\, all held in the Special Collections Research Center\, showcase not only the variety\, beauty\, and originality of turn-of-the-century print-making\, but also new ideas about what a magazine can do: namely\, create distinctive communities around avant-garde ideas outside of mainstream channels. The communities imagined in these magazines are sometimes explicitly political or aesthetic\, but more often both combine in writers’ and artists’ resistance to mass-market\, industrial\, bourgeois\, and nationalist print cultures.\n\nThe magazines in this exhibit are mostly American and British\, but many are distinctively cosmopolitan\, crossing borders to engage with international movements like socialism\, decadence\, and modernism in their attempts to create an audience united by aesthetic and political ideals rather than nationality. Although the little magazines’ resistance to mainstream journalism shortened their lifespan and restricted their circulation\, their experimental approach has had a lasting impact on our sense of magazines as flexible aesthetic and social media.

Religious devotion in ancient Kush (a region located in modern-day northern Sudan)\, involved pilgrimage and leaving informal marks on temples\, pyramids\, and other monumental structures. These graffiti are found in temples throughout the later (“Meroitic”) period of Kush\, when it bordered Roman Egypt. They represent one of the few direct traces of the devotional practices of private people in Kush and hint at individuals’ thoughts\, values\, and daily lives. This exhibition explores the times and places in which Kushite graffiti were inscribed through photos\, text\, and interactive media presentations. At the heart of the show are the hundreds of Meroitic graffiti recently discovered in a rock-cut temple by the Kelsey expedition to El-Kurru in northern Sudan.\n\nCurators: Geoff Emberling and Suzanne Davis\n\nView the online exhibition:\nhttp://exhibitions.kelsey.lsa.umich.edu/graffiti-el-kurru/ UID:63992-16059340@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/63992 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:AEM Featured,Africa,Archaeology,Exhibition,Museum LOCATION:Kelsey Museum of Archaeology CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20190827T104405 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20190910T100000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20190910T110000 SUMMARY:Meeting:Critical Contemporary Studies: Welcome Back Meeting DESCRIPTION:Please join us to discuss programming plans for 2019-20.

During her Masters program in 1973\, she started teaching at the Residential College in the First Year Seminar and French programs.

She participated in an interdisciplinary group composed of Residential College humanities and fine arts faculty who together constructed the Arts and Ideas in the Humanities concentration. Cindy's recent course offerings have included critical approaches to the literature and visual arts of classic modernism\, postmodernism\, Shakespeare and Rome\, the heritage of Greece\, the psychoanalytic interpretation of the arts\, and many others. She combines analyses of literary texts\, visual arts\, and philosophy to hone in on the animating spirit of a cultural moment and space. She has presented at the Royal Shakespeare Company's 2006 U-M residency\, as part of the RC Faculty Colloquium\, for the LSA Comparative Literature and the Colloquium on Critical Theory sponsored by the LSA Department of English Language and Literature\, and at the Residential College's 50th Anniversary celebration. She has received the Ford Foundation Fellowship\, the Rackham Prize twice\, the U-M Excellence in Teaching Award\, the Matthews Underclass Teaching Award\, and is a member of the Medieval Academy of America. Cindy retires from her position as a Senior Lecturer and Lecturer IV\, having served in the Residential College for 46 years. She has an active art practice\, and her work will be displayed in the RC Art Gallery in a fall 2019 exhibition. She also maintains a personal website\, cynthiasowers.rc.lsa.umich.edu\, where she publishes essays\, poetry\, and visual artwork.

Khan is a Senior Lecturer in the Department of Near East and Asian Studies at Wayne State University. He teaches Islamic and Middle East history\, politics and culture\, and is a Fellow at the Center for the Study of Citizenship. He is also Adjunct Professor in Islamic Studies at the University of Detroit-Mercy and at Rochester College\, co-teaching a course on Muslim-Christian Diversity.\n\nReligion in politics is the most crucial issue facing Middle East countries. The region faces challenges for the application of modernity in terms of secularism\, especially in a locale where democracy and individualism have had generally little latitude as a whole. This is due partly from its history\, and where many use religion to justify their authoritarian political systems. Could technological advances have an impact and at what pace? This presentation for those 50 and over will explore the always-changing landscape of the Middle East as a religion\, politics and technology compete\, clash and coexist.\n \nThis is the first in OLLI’S distinguished lecture series for 2019-20. A total of ten lectures are presented covering a variety of topics. Lectures are held on Tuesday mornings once each month.

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.

During these decades\, the notion that abstraction was a purely formal and American art form\, concerned only with timeless themes disconnected from the present\, was met with increased skepticism. Women artists and artists of color began to actively and assertively explore abstraction’s possibilities. The artworks in Abstraction\, Color\, and Politics: The 1960s and 1970s demonstrate both radical and disarming changes in how artists worked and what they thought their art was about. Their new formal and intellectual strategies—seen here across large-scale and miniature work—dramatically transformed the practice of abstraction in the 1960s and 1970s in a politically shifting American landscape.\n\nUMMA gratefully acknowledges the following donors for their generous support:\n\nLead Exhibition Sponsors: University of Michigan Office of the Provost\, Michigan Medicine\, and College of Literature\, Science\, and the Arts\n\nExhibition Endowment Donors:  Richard and Rosann Noel Endowment Fund\, Herbert W. and Susan L. Johe Endowment\, and Robert and Janet Miller Fund\n\nUniversity of Michigan Funding Partners: Institute for Research on Women and Gender\, School of Social Work\, Department of Political Science\, and Department of Women's Studies UID:63803-15884057@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/63803 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Art,Exhibition,Museum,Politics,UMMA LOCATION:Museum of Art - A.

In place of visible objects\, each plinth is equipped with a speaker from which we hear the word “thing” sung—edited out of and isolated from a range of pop songs. The result is an amusing and thoughtful exploration of language\, meaning\, and the conventions of museum presentation and spectatorship.\n \nThe installation\, like much of Berlin-based artist Ceal Floyer’s art\, is characteristically austere\, but its visual simplicity masks a more complicated message—often a wry cerebral twist the artist creates through language-based symbols and aesthetic devices. Floyer’s work is rooted in conceptual art\, in which the idea\, delivered through words or acts that undercut or supersede formal qualities\, is the essence of the artwork.\n\nLead support  for this exhibition is provided by the University of Michigan College of Engineering and the Herbert W. and Susan L. Johe Endowment. Additional generous support is provided by the University of Michigan Penny W.

Working at the turn of the twentieth century\, Schiele challenged the classical conventions of the day producing emotionally charged—often unsettling—drawings and watercolors depicting landscapes\, portraits\, and nudes. Two retired U-M professors recently gifted four works of art by Schiele to UMMA. Throughout their lifetimes\, Frances McSparran (English language and literature) and the late Ernst Pulgram (Romance and classical linguistics) collected over forty Austrian and German Expressionist works\, donating many of them to the Museum. The three watercolors and one drawing on view in this special installation complement the couple’s previous gifts of works by Schiele and his contemporaries Oskar Kokoschka\, George Grosz\, and Gustav Klimt\, reuniting these important works that together provide important insights into this tumultuous period in European history.        \n\n UID:63428-15694208@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/63428 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Art,European,Exhibition,History,Language,Literature,Museum,UMMA LOCATION:Museum of Art - The Connector CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20190904T071653 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20190910T110000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20190910T160000 SUMMARY:Careers / Jobs:Stryker Career Day DESCRIPTION:The ECRC is hosting a Career Day for Stryker on Tuesday\, September 10\, from 11:00 AM to 4:00 PM in the Duderstadt Atrium.\n\nStryker is one of the world’s leading medical technology companies and\, together with our customers\, is driven to make healthcare better.

Comparative analyses of these static structures reveals the remarkable conformational flexibility of these machines and hints at the significant structural rearrangements that evidently accompany their functional cycles. Unfortunately\, the experimental observation and characterization of these conformational dynamics is severely impeded by the size and complexity of biomolecular machines\, severely limiting our understanding of the contributions that dynamics make to their functions. Using a combination of single-molecule biophysical-\, structural-\, and biochemical approaches\, my research group aims to overcome these challenges and elucidate the precise roles that the conformational dynamics of biomolecular machines play in driving and controlling their functions. My seminar presentation will primarily focus on our studies of the mechanism and regulation of messenger RNA translation into protein by the ribosome\, an essential step in gene expression. Specifically\, I will discuss how thermally driven fluctuations of the ribosome and other essential translation components contribute to the mechanism and regulation of translation. Because the ribosome is the target of over half of all currently prescribed antibiotics and because of the growing list of human diseases to which deregulation of translation has been causally linked\, our findings hold great promise for informing the development of next-generation antibiotics and small-molecule therapeutic agents that function by modulating the conformational dynamics of the translation machinery. Building on what we have learned from these studies\, I will close my presentation by describing recent technological advances that are allowing us to investigate biomolecular dynamics which play important roles in biological mechanisms\, but that have thus far remained difficult or impossible to investigate. \n \n \n \n \nRuben Gonzalez (Columbia University) UID:63255-15603733@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/63255 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Biosciences,Chemistry,Science LOCATION:Chemistry Dow Lab - CHEM 1640 CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20190925T123043 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20190910T160000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20190910T170000 SUMMARY:Careers / Jobs:Internship Lab DESCRIPTION:Are you ready to start searching for a great internship?

Adamczyk of the University of Wisconsin-Madison\n\nAbstract\nArtificial limbs offer an opportunity to improve movement through biomimetic devices. One approach is to directly replace joint function\, but achieving humanlike performance is challenging for design\, control\, cost and longevity of the systems. An alternative approach is to exploit biomechanical workarounds for lost function rather than directly replacing it. This presentation will describe several such “semi-active” prostheses – low-power systems that modulate their mechanical properties but cannot power body movement – that aim to add adaptability and versatility with minimal addition of weight\, height\, complexity\, power demand and cost. \nAnother challenge in rehabilitation and assistive technology is determining which among several interventions is most beneficial to everyday movement. “Real-world” assessment using wearable sensors is a popular approach\, but current analysis techniques struggle to reduce days-long data sets to generalizable knowledge. The second part of this presentation will describe this challenge and a novel approach to data reduction aimed at enabling lab-like scientific findings from long-term wearable data sets\, with upcoming application to prosthetic ankle-foot systems.\n\nBio\nDr. Peter Adamczyk earned degrees in Mechanical Engineering from Case Western Reserve University (B.S.) and the University of Michigan (M.S. and Ph.D) in the areas of Robotics and Biomechanics. He spent several years running a startup company dedicated to advancing the science and technology of lower-limb prosthetics and real-world motion assessment. He is now an Assistant Professor at the University of Wisconsin–Madison where he directs the Biomechatronics\, Assistive Devices\, Gait Engineering and Rehabilitation Laboratory (UW BADGER Lab\, http://uwbadgerlab.engr.wisc.edu). \n\nDr. Adamczyk’s research aims to enhance physical and functional recovery from impairments affecting walking\, running\, and standing. Core foci include the design of semi-active foot prostheses for gait restoration after amputation\; wearable sensors for movement assessment during real-life activities\; and rehabilitation robotics to explore motor learning and neural adaptation.

Our first introduction to a book often comes via its cover or enclosure. While many covers plainly identify and entice us to peruse their contents\, others obscure what they protect and may even leave us wondering if what we’re looking at is in fact a book. Other covers are so captivating as to overshadow what they enclose\, leaving us reluctant to venture past them for a look inside. Ultimately many covers and enclosures reveal a great deal more about their creators\, owners and admirers than about the texts and images within.\n\nThis event is part of Special Collections After Hours\, a monthly open house series sharing highlights from the many books\, documents\, and artifacts in our collections. Each event is open to everyone and will offer a new group of themed materials for visitors to explore. Open houses are held on the second Tuesday of each month during the academic year. Light refreshments will be provided.

The Politics of the Middle-Income Trap DESCRIPTION:Beginning in the mid-2000s\, economists in both academia and development multilaterals have drawn increasing attention to countries\, especially in Southeast Asia and Latin America\, being stuck in middle-income. Political leaders in those regions have also expressed concerns about this “Middle-Income Trap.” But while economists point to policies required to move into higher income\, they have generally ignored the political and institutional aspects of the trap. Two factors merit special attention: “disarticulation politics\,” involving social cleavages that impede the creation of coalitions necessary to create effective institutions\; and unstable\, fragmented party systems that undermine the long time horizons necessary for institutional development and policy implementation. Doner will explore these issues through cross-national and cross-sectoral variation in specific issue areas and institutions. \n \nRichard F. Doner is Goodrich C. White Professor Emeritus in the Department of Political Science at Emory University in Atlanta\, Georgia. He received his Ph.D. in political science from the University of California\, Berkeley. Dr. Doner's research focuses on the political and institutional bases of economic development\, especially in Southeast Asia. His books include \"The Politics of Uneven Development: Thailand’s Economic Growth in Comparative Perspective\" (2009)\; \"From Silicon Valley to Singapore: Location and Competitive Advantage in the Hard Disk Drive Industry\" (with David McKendrick and Stephan Haggard\, 2000)\; and \"Driving a Bargain: Japanese Firms and Automobile Industrialization in Southeast Asia\" (1991). His co-edited volumes include \"Explaining Institutional Innovation: Case Studies from Latin America and East Asia\" (2010)\, and \"Economic Governance and The Challenge of Flexibility in East Asia\" (with Fred Deyo and Eric Hershberg\, 2001). His articles have appeared in journals such as \"International Organization\,\" \"World Politics\,\" \"Journal of Development Studies\,\" \"Journal of Contemporary Asia\,\" \"Journal of Asian Studies\,\" \"Science\, Technology and Society\,\" \"Journal of East Asian Studies\,\" \"Review of Policy Research\,\" and \"World Development.\" Dr. Doner has written or consulted for the World Bank\, the International Labor Organization\, the Inter-American Development Bank\, and business associations in Southeast Asia. He was a Peace Corps Volunteer in Northeast Thailand and an assembly line worker at General Motors in California. \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.

The materials collected in this exhibit\, all held in the Special Collections Research Center\, showcase not only the variety\, beauty\, and originality of turn-of-the-century print-making\, but also new ideas about what a magazine can do: namely\, create distinctive communities around avant-garde ideas outside of mainstream channels. The communities imagined in these magazines are sometimes explicitly political or aesthetic\, but more often both combine in writers’ and artists’ resistance to mass-market\, industrial\, bourgeois\, and nationalist print cultures.\n\nThe magazines in this exhibit are mostly American and British\, but many are distinctively cosmopolitan\, crossing borders to engage with international movements like socialism\, decadence\, and modernism in their attempts to create an audience united by aesthetic and political ideals rather than nationality. Although the little magazines’ resistance to mainstream journalism shortened their lifespan and restricted their circulation\, their experimental approach has had a lasting impact on our sense of magazines as flexible aesthetic and social media.

Religious devotion in ancient Kush (a region located in modern-day northern Sudan)\, involved pilgrimage and leaving informal marks on temples\, pyramids\, and other monumental structures. These graffiti are found in temples throughout the later (“Meroitic”) period of Kush\, when it bordered Roman Egypt. They represent one of the few direct traces of the devotional practices of private people in Kush and hint at individuals’ thoughts\, values\, and daily lives. This exhibition explores the times and places in which Kushite graffiti were inscribed through photos\, text\, and interactive media presentations. At the heart of the show are the hundreds of Meroitic graffiti recently discovered in a rock-cut temple by the Kelsey expedition to El-Kurru in northern Sudan.\n\nCurators: Geoff Emberling and Suzanne Davis\n\nView the online exhibition:\nhttp://exhibitions.kelsey.lsa.umich.edu/graffiti-el-kurru/ UID:63992-16059341@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/63992 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:AEM Featured,Africa,Archaeology,Exhibition,Museum LOCATION:Kelsey Museum of Archaeology CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20190903T115835 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20190911T090000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20190911T100000 SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Ph.D. Defense: Zachariah Sperry DESCRIPTION:Department of Biomedical Engineering Final Oral Examination\n\nZachariah Sperry\n\nNeural Interfacing with Dorsal Root Ganglia: Anatomical Characterization and Electrophysiological Recordings with Novel Electrode Arrays\n\nDorsal root ganglia (DRG)\, the hubs of neurons conducting sensory information into the spinal cord\, are promising targets for clinical and investigative neural interface technologies. DRG stimulation is currently a tertiary therapy for chronic pain patients\, which has an estimated prevalence of up to 40% of adults in the United States. In pre-clinical studies\, combined neural recording and stimulation at DRG has been used as part of novel closed-loop systems to drive activity of the limbs or the urinary system. This suggests a potential role for clinical DRG interfaces to assist\, among other patient groups\, the nearly 300\,000 spinal cord injured patients in the United States.\n\nTo maximize the utility of DRG interfaces\, however\, there remains a strong need to improve our understanding of DRG structure. Neural interface technologies for both stimulation and recording rely heavily on the spatial organization of their neural targets. To record high-fidelity neural signals\, a microelectrode must be placed within about 200 µm of a neural cell body. Likewise\, effective neural stimulation is believed to act on a subset of DRG axons based on their size and location. The spatial organization of DRG\, however\, has not been previously quantified. In this thesis\, I demonstrate a novel algorithm to transform histological cross-sections of DRG to a normalized circular region for quantifying trends across many samples. Using this algorithm on 26 lumbosacral DRG from felines\, a common preclinical DRG model\, I found that the highest density of neural cell bodies was in the outer 24% radially\, primarily at the dorsal aspect. I extended this analysis to a semi-automated cross-DRG analysis in 33 lower lumbar DRG from 10 human donors. I found that the organization of human DRG was similar to felines\, with the highest density of cell bodies found in the outer 20-25% of the DRG\, depending on spinal level. I also found a trend toward lower small-axon density at the dorsal aspect of L5 DRG\, a key region for stimulation applications.\n\nTo take advantage of this quantitative knowledge of DRG organization\, future neural interfaces with DRG will require more advanced technologies. Standard silicon-based electrode arrays\, while useful for short-term DRG recordings\, ultimately fail in chronic use after several weeks as a result of mechanical mismatch with neural tissue. In this thesis\, I demonstrate sensory recording from the surface and interior of sacral DRG during acute surgeries using a variety of flexible polyimide microelectrode arrays 4 μm thick with minimum site separation of 25 to 40 μm. Using these arrays\, I recorded from bladder and somatic afferents with high fidelity. The high density of sites allowed for neural source localization from surface recordings to depths 25 to 107 µm. This finding supports the anatomical analysis suggesting a high density of cell bodies in the dorsal surface region where the surface array was applied. The high site density also allowed for the use of advanced signal processing to decrease analysis time and track neural sources during movement of the array which may occur during long-term behavioral experiments.\n\nThis thesis represents significant advances in our understanding of DRG and how to interface with them\, particularly related to the ways anatomy can inform development of future technologies. Going forward\, it will be important to expand the anatomical maps based on organ function and to test the novel flexible arrays in chronic implant experiments.\n\nDate: Wednesday\, September 11\, 2019\nTime: 9:00 AM\nLocation: NCRC Building 32 Auditorium\nChair: Dr. Tim Bruns UID:66181-16717510@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/66181 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:biomedical engineering,Discussion,Dissertation,engineering,Medicine,Michigan Engineering LOCATION: CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20190813T134007 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20190911T090000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20190911T114500 SUMMARY:Meeting:U-M Aphasia Community Group (UMAC) DESCRIPTION:The U-M Aphasia Community Group (UMAC) is a great way to meet people in the aphasia community\, while boosting communication skills and confidence!

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.

During these decades\, the notion that abstraction was a purely formal and American art form\, concerned only with timeless themes disconnected from the present\, was met with increased skepticism. Women artists and artists of color began to actively and assertively explore abstraction’s possibilities. The artworks in Abstraction\, Color\, and Politics: The 1960s and 1970s demonstrate both radical and disarming changes in how artists worked and what they thought their art was about. Their new formal and intellectual strategies—seen here across large-scale and miniature work—dramatically transformed the practice of abstraction in the 1960s and 1970s in a politically shifting American landscape.\n\nUMMA gratefully acknowledges the following donors for their generous support:\n\nLead Exhibition Sponsors: University of Michigan Office of the Provost\, Michigan Medicine\, and College of Literature\, Science\, and the Arts\n\nExhibition Endowment Donors:  Richard and Rosann Noel Endowment Fund\, Herbert W. and Susan L. Johe Endowment\, and Robert and Janet Miller Fund\n\nUniversity of Michigan Funding Partners: Institute for Research on Women and Gender\, School of Social Work\, Department of Political Science\, and Department of Women's Studies UID:63803-15884058@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/63803 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Art,Exhibition,Museum,Politics,UMMA LOCATION:Museum of Art - A.

In place of visible objects\, each plinth is equipped with a speaker from which we hear the word “thing” sung—edited out of and isolated from a range of pop songs. The result is an amusing and thoughtful exploration of language\, meaning\, and the conventions of museum presentation and spectatorship.\n \nThe installation\, like much of Berlin-based artist Ceal Floyer’s art\, is characteristically austere\, but its visual simplicity masks a more complicated message—often a wry cerebral twist the artist creates through language-based symbols and aesthetic devices. Floyer’s work is rooted in conceptual art\, in which the idea\, delivered through words or acts that undercut or supersede formal qualities\, is the essence of the artwork.\n\nLead support  for this exhibition is provided by the University of Michigan College of Engineering and the Herbert W. and Susan L. Johe Endowment. Additional generous support is provided by the University of Michigan Penny W.

Working at the turn of the twentieth century\, Schiele challenged the classical conventions of the day producing emotionally charged—often unsettling—drawings and watercolors depicting landscapes\, portraits\, and nudes. Two retired U-M professors recently gifted four works of art by Schiele to UMMA. Throughout their lifetimes\, Frances McSparran (English language and literature) and the late Ernst Pulgram (Romance and classical linguistics) collected over forty Austrian and German Expressionist works\, donating many of them to the Museum. The three watercolors and one drawing on view in this special installation complement the couple’s previous gifts of works by Schiele and his contemporaries Oskar Kokoschka\, George Grosz\, and Gustav Klimt\, reuniting these important works that together provide important insights into this tumultuous period in European history.        \n\n UID:63428-15694209@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/63428 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Art,European,Exhibition,History,Language,Literature,Museum,UMMA LOCATION:Museum of Art - The Connector CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20190910T162612 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20190911T113000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20190911T133000 SUMMARY:Other:Ask Me Anything Tables DESCRIPTION:First Year Experience (FYE) and Campus Information Center (CIC) will set up info stations in front of dining halls on campus to answer student questions.

Nature\, Consumption\, and Waste in the Cold War and Beyond DESCRIPTION:The goal of this lecture is to reevaluate state socialism’s environmental record from a transnational rather than a comparative perspective. Zsuzsa Gille will argue that state socialist modernity had its own view of nature and materials\, as well as a largely misunderstood ethical stance to consumption that is ignored in today’s studies of Capitalocene examining the interrelations of capitalism and climate crisis. The presentation will provide an overview of the environmental advantages and disadvantages of central planning with an eye to demonstrating how Cold War-era trans-bloc relations and a unique socialist economic logic mutually constituted each other. In discussing the post-1989 developments\, she will demonstrate a missed opportunity for a greener postsocialism. Instead of returning to the rightfully criticized Anthropocene term\, Gille will argue for a more central role for waste and materiality in our understanding of the current dilemmas around global environmental problems. \n \nZsuzsa Gille is professor of sociology and director of global studies at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign. She is author of \"Paprika\, Foie Gras\, and Red Mud: The Politics of Materiality in the European Union\" (Indiana University Press\, 2016)\; \"From the Cult of Waste to the Trash Heap of History: The Politics of Waste in Socialist and Postsocialist Hungary\;\" co-editor of \"Post-Communist Nostalgia\" with Maria Todorova (Berghahn Press\, 2010)\; co-editor of the forthcoming book \"The Socialist Good Life: Desire\, Development\, and Standards of Living in Eastern Europe\;\" and co-author of \"Global Ethnography: Forces\, Connections and Imaginations in a Postmodern World\" (University of California Press\, 2000). \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.

However\, increasingly stringent bounds on WIMPs are now motivating the exploration of viable alternatives. One interesting possibility are DM candidates with sub-GeV masses. In this talk\, I will present two such examples. First\, I will focus on models where the dark matter abundance is set by mutual annihilations among multiple species. I will show how sizable mass splittings between the dark matter states naturally point to masses exponentially lighter than the weak scale. Light dark matter from coannihilation evades stringent bounds from the cosmic microwave background\, but will be tested by future direct detection\, fixed target\, and long-lived particle experiments. Second\, I will illustrate another viable thermal dark matter candidate with sub-GeV masses which has been overlooked in the literature: a cosmologically stable dark Higgs.

Such media such as foams with interconnected pores or packed beds of aggregate media are desirable for chemical reactions since the reaction surface area to volume ratio is typically quite high. Applications of such reactors include the removal of volatile organic compounds from flues\, plasma treatment of aggregate organic media such as seeds\, and low temperature\, efficient combustion. Conventional applications featuring packed bed media contain catalytic particles often at high temperature. The chemical reactivity of such porous media can be greatly enhanced non-thermally through the production of plasma in the pores. The plasma electrons drive non- equilibrium chemical reactions allowing for a high degree of reaction selectivity. Such plasmas are also the source of reactive radicals. The production and subsequent propagation of plasma within the pores of such media is not well understood. The goal of this thesis work is to understand the plasma production process in porous media and the subsequent propagation of the plasma through such media. This work also involves understanding the induced chemical reactivity induced by the propagating plasma. The ultimate goal is to obtain insight into how the plasma imparts reactivity to the flow through gas and how these effects can be controlled. This insight will serve as the basis for optimization of existing packed media plasma reactors and the development of new\, novel sources for a range of applications including chemical processing. An application area of plasma packed bed reactors is also explored—the treatment of seeds. Here the propagation of plasma through packed beds of seeds and the subsequent germination and growth is studied. Such treatments have the potential to revolutionize agriculture by improving yields\, increasing crop growing seasons and enhancing seed vigor. Such work supports food security particularly in light of pressures from overpopulation and climate change.

Recently\, we have developed and explored iPSC-derived neurons from familial Alzheimer’s disease patients using a systems-level\, multi-omics approach\, identifying disease-related endotypes\, which are commonly dysregulated in patient-derived neurons and patient brain tissue alike. By integrating RNA-Seq\, ATAC-Seq\, and ChIP-Seq approaches\, we determined that the defining disease-causing mechanism of AD is de-differentiation of neurons\, driven primarily through the REST-mediated repression of neuronal lineage specification gene programs and the activation of cell cycle reentry and non-specific germ layer precursor gene programs concomitant with modifications in chromatin accessibility. Strikingly\, our reanalysis of previously-generated AD-patient brain tissue showed similar enrichment of neuronal repression and de-differentiation mechanisms. Surprisingly\, our earlier work on glioblastoma also showed de-differentiation and initiation of some of the shared diseased endotypes as common features. We postulate that de-differentiation and reprogramming are hallmark mechanisms of numerous pathologies\, arguably genetically evolved to serve as protection mechanisms. \n\nAcknowledgements: This work was done in collaboration with the Laboratory of Dr. Wagner and his colleagues.\n\nReferences: \nCaldwell AB\, Liu Q\, Schroth GP\, Tanzi RE\, Galasko DR\, Yuan SH\, Wagner SL\, Subramaniam S.

I will present the first results from a new program at the LHCb experiment at CERN to study hadronization\, i.e. how subnuclear particles called quarks and gluons form strong force bound states in quantum chromodynamics. These studies at LHCb over the upcoming decade will drive ideas about how to investigate various hadronization mechanisms further at the future Electron-Ion Collider\, proposed for construction in the U.S. in the 2020s. I will additionally give an overview of a project exploring the foundations of physics that aims to find a set of minimal assumptions from which the known laws of physics can be rederived. Pinpointing the conditions under which the different branches of physics are valid should give a better understanding of them and may in turn provide new insights for future theories. \n UID:65278-16565497@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/65278 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Physics,Science LOCATION:West Hall - 340 CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20190906T141053 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20190911T160000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20190911T173000 SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Labor Economics\, Macroeconomics DESCRIPTION:Details to come.

All roles are available for SATB principals and chorus\; cast will be selected from the audition pool with no pre-casting. All are welcome to audition\, including students\, faculty / staff\, and general community members of Ann Arbor / Southeast Michigan area. To sign up for an audition time you may either attend the UMGASS Mass Meeting at 7:00 pm on Sunday\, September 8th at the Michigan League\, or e-mail umgassexec@umich.edu to have a member of the board sign you up by proxy. Walk-ins are also welcome\; please arrive before 9:00 pm if you plan to walk-in. Callbacks (if necessary) will be held on the evening of Thursday\, September 12th.\n\nPlease prepare ~32-64 bars of a selection from musical theater\, comic opera\, or opera (in English)\, and provide a legible copy for the accompanist. Be prepared to read selections from the libretto if you are interested in a speaking role. There will be no dance audition for this production. Rehearsals will average two days per week between Sunday afternoon and Thursday evening for both chorus and principals. Production dates are December 5 – 8\, 2019\, at the Lydia Mendelssohn Theater in the Michigan League\, with full staging and full orchestra.\n\nThe University of Michigan Gilbert & Sullivan Society (UMGASS) was founded in 1947 and is the oldest student-run society nationwide dedicated to performing the operettas of Sir William Gilbert and Sir Arthur Sullivan. Each year we bring together students and community members for two fully staged productions of Gilbert & Sullivan operettas\, which are performed with orchestra at the Lydia Mendelssohn Theatre in downtown Ann Arbor. The quality of our productions sets a high standard for community G&S companies\, and our performances\, particularly of the lesser-known works of the canon\, are benchmarks for similar organizations around the country and the world. \n​\nWe’re proud to be a great place for future performing arts professionals as well as a creative outlet for students\, professors\, and community members of all ages looking to blow off steam and have a good time participating in a great show!\n\nThe Yeomen of the Guard was the 11th collaboration between librettist W.S. Gilbert and composer Arthur Sullivan. The story takes place at the Tower of London\, where the heroic Colonel Fairfax is scheduled to be executed the following morning on questionable grounds. The Colonel’s heirs will be disinherited if he dies unmarried\, and so he finds a short-term bride in the strolling player\, Elsie Maynard – much to the chagrin of her infatuated traveling partner\, the jester Jack Point. Meanwhile\, the Colonel’s friends and admirers work for his release – or for his escape\, if necessary. Will the Colonel\, his impetuous marriage\, and the broken-hearted jester all survive until the final curtain? This time there will be no last-minute topsy-turvy revelation to prevent the story’s dramatic conclusion.\n\nYeomen of the Guard will be directed by David Andrews\, who most recently directed UMGASS’s 2018 production of The Grand Duke\, and who will be directing with UMGASS for the eighth time\, among his 22 semesters with the group. Music Director for this production will be Ezra Donner\, a U-M alumnus with a Doctor of Music degree from Indiana University\, who conducted previous UMGASS productions of The Mikado\, Patience\, HMS Pinafore\, and The Pirates of Penzance between 2015 and 2017. The Choreographer will be UMGASS veteran Beth Ballbach\, who choreographed recent UMGASS productions of Princess Ida\, Iolanthe\, The Grand Duke\, and The Gondoliers\, among many others.\n\nFor additional information on Yeomen\, including audio files of the music\, check out the Gilbert & Sullivan Archive at https://gsarchive.net/yeomen/html/index.html.

Sr. Helen will be introduced by Ashley Lucas\, Director of the Prison Creative Arts Project at the University of Michigan\, and joined in conversation by Rev. Nancy S. Lynn. A Q&A and book signing will follow.\n\nThe event is free and open to the public\, though a free general admission ticket is required. A limited number of book bundle tickets are also available\, and these include a hardcover copy River of Fire\, reserved general admission seating at the front of the venue\, and signing line priority (note that for parties wishing to sit together in this reserved area\, each member must purchase a book bundle ticket).\n\nCopies of River of Fire and a selection Sister Helen's previous books will be available for purchase for all guests. Any person with books to sign may join the signing line\, following all Book Bundle guests.\n\nPlease note that FUMC's sanctuary is not air-conditioned. Guests are welcomed and encouraged to bring personal fans if it proves to be a particularly warm evening.\n\nParking in downtown Ann Arbor can be difficult. Surface spots are sparse\, but a detailed map of available (and walkable) parking structures can be found here.\n\nAbout the Book: In this revelatory\, intimate memoir of her childhood\, her spiritual evolution\, and how she became “lit” to her crusade\, Sister Helen chronicles her journey from one who prayed for God to solve the world’s problems to one engaged full-tilt\, hands-on\, in the work to transform societal injustices. She writes about growing up in a well-off Baton Rouge family\, one that still employed black servants in the racially segregated South\, and how she joined the Sisters of St. Joseph at the age of eighteen. Life in the novitiate\, which aimed at spiritual holiness\, set strict boundaries of separation from the (sinful) “world” – but all that changed in the wake of Vatican II\, which brought the winds of change in the Catholic Church. Inspired by Catholic activists such as Dorothy Day in the inner city and Jesuit priests who went to prison for destroying draft files in opposition to the Vietnam war\, Sister Helen started to immerse herself in the struggle of poor people in New Orleans forced to live on the margins of society. River of Fire is at turns honest and humorous\, and she writes openly about her friendships with other women who have inspired and nurtured her\, as well as a close friendship with a priest— obsessively intent on marrying her—and how these relationships challenged her vocation in “new territory of the heart” and propelled her further into deepening both her life in the Sisterhood and her engagement in social justice\, where she is today.\n\nRiver of Fire is a story of faith and spirituality\, doubt and belief\, addressed to believers\, agnostics\, and “nones” alike. It tells about “catching on fire” to purpose and passion. Accessible\, humorous\, luminous and on point for these polarized times when awakened social conscience and citizen action have never been more needed\, Sister Helen shows us how to live a spiritual life that is wide awake to the sufferings and creative opportunities of our world.\n\nHelen Prejean\, CSJ\, is the author of the #1 national bestseller Dead Man Walking. A member of the Congregation of St. Joseph\, she has appeared on 60 Minutes\, Frontline\, The Oprah Winfrey Show\, ABC's World News Tonight\, The Rachel Maddow Show\, Democracy Now!\, Crossfire\, NBC's special series on the death penalty\, and NPR's All Things Considered\, and has been featured in The New York Times Magazine\, USA Today\, Los Angeles Times\, and The New York Review of Books.\n\nAbout First United Methodist Church: At First United Methodist Church of Ann Arbor\, we welcome everyone of every ability!
