In this Teach-Out\, you will explore the origins of Earth Day 1970 with student activists from Environmental Action for Survival (ENACT)\, an environmental student group from the University of Michigan\, whose efforts led to a massive “Teach-In on the Environment” which drew tens of thousands of people. This was just one of many teach-in events that took place in 1970 and kicked-off Earth Day as we know it.\n\n50 years later\, you are invited to this “Teach-Out” to engage in an intergenerational and interdisciplinary conversion about what sustainability means across different sectors\, disciplines\, and lived experiences. You will explore themes including global sustainability efforts\, climate change\, environmental justice\, and more\, to inspire you to take action on Earth Day and beyond. Together\, we will collectively develop visions for a sustainable\, just\, and peaceful world.

She paints intuitively to music\, spontaneously\, with no plan in mind and with as little thought as possible. She sees the first marks of black calligraphy as the hint of a language revealing bird wisdom hidden beneath successive layers of color. She paints the white layer last\, unifying all of the elements in the painting. Harold uses not only a brush\, but also fingers\, squeegee and oil sticks to capture the fleeting nature of birds. An ordained Unity minister\, Harold aims for this series to inspire the discovery of inner solutions to difficult issues that have so far eluded resolution by ordinary means.

Stamps School of Art and Design. In this body of work\, she reflects on how time spent in nature has inspired new personal discoveries and intellectual curiosity\, while serving as a positive distraction from recent experiences with grief and sadness. Drawing from these insights\, Mondro crocheted and stitched fine wire to create intricate woven sculptures reminiscent of seeds\, pods and other organic forms. Focusing on the wonderfully complex construction of these forms\, Mondro mimics nature’s ability to be structurally strong while delicate in appearance to invite deeper exploration.

Her work includes realist oil paintings of common everyday objects and abstracted subjects portrayed in gouache (opaque watercolor) on paper. This recent body of work evolved from years of photographing rooftops\, playgrounds\, houses and aerial views\, and digitally manipulating them to create colorful and quirky compositions. The scenes are not intended to be specific locales\, but rather to celebrate the color\, shape\, rhythm and structure found in our daily environment. Gouache is a medium which requires slow and careful application and reflects the artist’s view of painting as a meditative pursuit.

Celerin’s family emigrated from Czechoslovakia to Canada in 1968 as political refugees escaping Soviet rule. Both a molecular geneticist and artist\, her artistic medium is a sophisticated blend of highly dimensional weaving\, crochet\, needle felting\, and other fiber-based techniques that incorporates everyday reclaimed and recycled materials to help tell a story. The pieces on exhibit are drawn from a larger body of work that translates the extraordinary challenges of modern-day human migration and notes the parallel phenomena in animals.

Over the years\, she has collected\, saved\, garbage-rescued\, and gathered objects that capture her attention. A firm believer that there is no such thing as garbage\, and a great observer of nature’s cycle of creating and breaking down\, she has constructed numerous cement vessels to hold all these objects that proliferate the studio. These finds\, the vessels that hold them\, and the totems that pay tribute to them\, all keep her company\, inspire her\, and keep her calm in her temple-like studio in the woods outside of Chelsea\, Michigan.

It has yielded several thousand artifacts ranging from Paleolithic spear points to historic musket flints. \n\nDan Wymer\, who owns 23 of the 29 acres comprising the Wooster Site\, has invited MAS members to join him in April for a day of excavation at the site. The exact date will be determined by how soon the frost leaves the ground and the soil dries out enough to be sifted. The focus of the excavation will be a previously cultivated area that yielded 10\,000-year-old Agate Basin artifacts during controlled surface collecting. MAS members who would like to participate in the dig are asked to attend this presentation in order to become familiar with the site and the details of how the April dig will be conducted.\n\nThis lecture is sponsored by the Michigan Archaeological Society.\nTo learn more about the MAS\, please visit http://www.miarch.org/\n\nMAS Lectures are free and open to the public.

The compositions explore the ancient Greek public space as a site for activated assembly and the heart of the artistic\, spiritual\, and political life of the city. UMMA’s installation is designed with an actual public square at its center\, complete with sound components featuring noted political and aesthetic discourse and surrounded by Washington’s soaring monumental collages. Works from four earlier series by the artist form the perimeter of the Museum’s largest special exhibition space. The artist describes his work as “abstract meditations on the grid and humanity.”\n\nLead support for this exhibition is provided by Erica Gervais Pappendick and Ted Pappendick\, Candy and Michael Barasch\, the University of Michigan Office of the Provost\, Michigan Medicine\, the Michigan Council for Arts and Cultural Affairs\, and the Institute for the Humanities.

Through a selection of mid-century to contemporary Inuit prints\, drawings\, and sculptures that portray seemingly ordinary reflections of daily life along with daydreaming meditations\, the exhibition bridges the mundane and the fantastic. Together\, these artworks present a distinct imagery and a visual poetry culled from the day-to-day reality of life in the far polar north. The perspectives range from soaring gazes at the horizon to glimpses of commonplace social interactions. These contemplations reveal intimate connections among the artists\, their communities\, and their locale—a specific place and time composed of icy regions and vast seas and tundras. Reflections: An Ordinary Day takes visitors on a lyrical journey of the myriad spaces and routines within an Arctic landscape.\n\nThis exhibition is made possible by the Power Family Program for Inuit Art\, established in 2018 through the generosity of Philip and Kathy Power.

Witt Artist in Residence Courtney McClellan\, Witness Lab frames witnessing as a social and artistic act. The gallery collapses courtroom\, theater\, classroom\, laboratory\, and artist studio in order to study the relationship between performance and law. In hosting mock trials\, court transcript readings\, and trial advocacy workshops\, the artist investigates who performs the role of witness in our society and how that understanding may map onto the narrower legal definition of the role. The installation will host legal simulations from participating groups\, including the Trial Advocacy Society and the Oral Argument Competition from the University of Michigan Law School\, as well as the undergraduate team of the Collegiate American Mock Trial Association. Taking the role of courtroom sketch artists\, or court reporters\, students from the U-M Stamps School of Art and Design will observe and document the courtroom performances through drawing\, text\, photography\, and video.\n\nWitness Lab is presented in partnership with the Roman J. Witt Artist in Residence Program of the Penny W. Stamps School of Art & Design\, with lead support provided by the University of Michigan Law School and Office of the Provost.

The link will be provided below.\n\nBlue Jeans Link: https://umich.bluejeans.com/902489900\n\nThe promise of precision health is typically associated with the early detection of disease\, and the identification of an individually tailored therapy to extend healthspan while also reducing costs. I will discuss our work on immune engineering\, as the immune system is essential to health\, and consequently immune dysregulation can lead to disease. Autoimmune disease has been increasing in prevalence for the past few decades\, and results from the immune system attacking healthy tissues\, such as in Type 1 Diabetes or Multiple Sclerosis. Current treatments typically involve suppressing the entire immune system\, despite the immune system attacking specific proteins. Based on the function of the immune system\, we have developed nanoparticles that re-program immune responses to specific antigens leading to tolerance to those antigens and leaving the remainder of the immune system intact. The nanoparticles maintain the antigen until internalization by immune cells\, with subsequent presentation of the antigen coincident with down-regulation of the co-stimulatory factors and up-regulation of negative co-stimulators. In addition to reprogramming specific immune responses\, a need exists for technologies that can detect autoimmune disease initiation prior to substantial destruction of healthy tissues. We have applied tissue engineering principles to generate tissues subcutaneously that function as an immunological niche\, which can be accessed easily to avoids risks associated with biopsy of native tissues (e.g.\, brain\,) and thereby report on immune status within tissues. Technologies for detecting disease at the earliest stages combined with reprogramming specific cellular responses represent major opportunities for Precision Health to improve health while containing costs.\n\nSpeaker biography:\n\nLonnie Shea is the Chair of the Department of Biomedical Engineering at the University of Michigan (U-M)\, which is joint between the College of Engineering and the School of Medicine.

If settler colonialism itself is presented as a form of orientation\, of making a recognizable and inhabitable home space for European arrivals on indigenous land\, then native peoples and their continued resistance can serve to ‘queer’ these attempted forms of order. In such circumstances\, the customs\, practices\, and potentially the very bodies of indigenous peoples can become queer despite remaining ostensibly heterosexual in orientation and practice\, as their existence constantly undermines the desired order of an emergent settler state.\n\nT.J. Tallie is an assistant professor of African history at the University of San Diego. He specializes in the comparative settler colonial and imperial history\, with a focus on South Africa. His interests include colonialism\, gender and racial identity\, indigeneity\, sexuality\, and religious expression. He is the recent author of Queering Colonial Natal: Indigeneity and the Violence of Belonging in Southern Africa.\n\nFree and open to the public. \n\nThis event presented by the Department of Women's Studies and the Eisenberg Institute for Historical Studies.

Aside from the Earth’s supply of radioisotopes and fossil fuels\, the abundant supply of fusion-based energy produced by the sun remains to be efficiently harvested. The collection of solar energy in space could potentially be an order-of-magnitude more effective than ground-based technology because in space\, solar insolation is continuous and not attenuated by the atmosphere. These potential advantages have motivated efforts to design space solar power systems since the early 1960s. \nA solar power system consists of a space segment that collects solar energy\, converts the energy into radiation (typically in a wavelength band to which the atmosphere is mostly transparent)\, then transmits the radiation to a ground facility that converts the radiation into electrical power. Since the ground-based power collection technology is (relatively) well developed\, we concentrate here on the space segment\, called the Solar Power Satellite(s) (SPS).\n\nIn this presentation\, an SPS is assumed to be a space system in geostationary orbit that collects solar power via photovoltaics and transmits it to ground collection stations using microwave radiation. Previous system designs developed over the past several decades entail gigantic\, articulated structures with many (in some cases\, thousands of) moving parts and require on-orbit infrastructure and in-space construction using advanced robotics. The concept described here combines solar cell / microwave patch antenna printing technology with well-established inflatable satellite technology (based upon the Echo relay satellites). A Power StarTM is a large\, deployable\, thin-skinned balloon upon which solar cells and microwave transmitters are printed. For launch\, the system is compactly folded into a spherical canister. Once attaining orbit\, the canister is opened\; the balloon inflated via sublimation of an interior coating\; the skin rigidified\, and the balloon finally evacuated. I review the state of manufacturability in printing technology\, inflatable satellite technology\, the retro-directive phased array technology for beam direction and shaping\, and the power distribution design to address the “elbow problem”. Considerations of solar pressure effects\, orbit maintenance\, and thermal response are also presented. \n\nIn summary\, while capable of substantial power generation\, even with low efficiency solar cells\, the design has no moving parts\, requires no in-space construction\, and can be packaged in many existing launch vehicle payload fairings. With these features\, and according to current economic analyses\, the design can provide a first revenue system in one launch.\n\nAbout the speaker...\n\nAt the Massachusetts Institute of Technology Dr. Hyland was awarded the S.

Hydrogen / deuterium exchange–mass spectrometry (HDX-MS) has become a standard method for analyzing conformations and binding interactions of solvated proteins. Carbohydrates\, model systems for glycans\, are susceptible to HDX since they contain labile hydrogens\, primarily in the form of hydroxyls\, which can be labeled with deuterium (D) upon exposure to deuterated solvents. However\, compared to backbone amides\, the functional group detected in traditional HDX-MS experiments for proteins\, the exchange rate of glycan hydroxyls is two to eight orders of magnitude faster\, depending on solution pH. This rapid exchange rate makes it unfeasible to monitor HDX of carbohydrate hydroxyls using traditional\, bottom-up HDX methods. \nHerein\, we describe our ongoing efforts to characterize solvated carbohydrates. We perform rapid HDX by introducing deuterating reagents (e.g. D2O) to carbohydrates during electrospray ionization (ESI). Our work illustrates that these rapid\, in-ESI HDX methods characterize solvated carbohydrates rather than gas-phase structures. Furthermore\, we have coupled our experimental work with molecular dynamics simulations to identify the mechanism of carbohydrate ionization during ESI. Experimentally\, we have quantified how ESI source conditions alter the magnitude of HDX for carbohydrate model systems\, developed an internal standard to control for daily humidity differences\, and established methods to alter the HDX labeling time on the microsecond to millisecond timescale. We are now applying these in-ESI HDX methods to characterize carbohydrate isomers and non-covalent carbohydrate-protein interactions.\n \n \n \nElyssia Gallagher (Baylor University) UID:67855-16960496@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/67855 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Biosciences,Chemistry,Science LOCATION:Chemistry Dow Lab - CHEM 1640 CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20200416T164119 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20200416T170000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20200416T180000 SUMMARY:Livestream / Virtual:FYE Study Tables DESCRIPTION:Come join fellow FYE Student Staff as we connect and study through virtual study tables!

Mayer\nDirected and Choreographed by Linda Goodrich\nMusic Direction by Catherine A. Walker\n\nMy One and Only is a delightfully frothy romp\, buoyed by a tuneful Gershwin score and exuberant dance numbers. Conceived as a new book for the Gershwins' most-loved songs\, My One and Only features such standards as ‘’S Wonderful\,” “Funny Face\,” “I Can’t Be Bothered Now\,” “Strike Up the Band\,” “Nice Work If You Can Get It” and “Kickin’ the Clouds Away.” It's 1927 New York\, and aviator Billy Buck Chandler is determined to be the first man to fly solo across the Atlantic. His plans are derailed when he meets Edyth Herbert\, a British ingénue who previously swam the English Channel and now performs in an Aquacade under the thumb of the villainous Prince Nikki. Can the two navigate the obstacles in their path as they sing and dance their way toward love?\n\nMy One and Only opened on Broadway in 1983 starring Tommy Tune and Twiggy. It was a huge success\, garnering nine Tony Award nominations and three wins for Best Actor\, Best Featured Actor\, and Best Choreography. The latter award\, shared by star Tommy Tune and his co-choreographer Thommie Walsh\, was especially well deserved: critic Frank Rich of The New York Times said that the show “levitates with some of the most inspired choreography Broadway has seen in several seasons.” With numerous show-stopping dance numbers set to timeless Gershwin tunes\, My One and Only guarantees a toe-tapping good time!

Driven by strong lyrical and melodic writing\, their songs easily appeal to fans of modern folk-rockers like Jason Mraz\, Ray Lamontagne\, and John Mayer. However\, it is their lush harmonies\, that distinguish The Sweet Remains from the throngs of guitar-toting troubadour\, harking back to supergroups of the 60's and 70's like CSN\, the Eagles\, and Simon & Garfunkel. When Rich Price\, Greg Naughto\, and Brian Chartrand met for a chance jam session in a Rhode Island hotel room in 2008\, the three instantly recognized a musical blend and kinship that would eventually overcome geography (and solo careers) to form The Sweet Remains. Since then they've toured as far away as Denmark and Germany\, and gained critical raves from the likes of the Boston Herald\, which wrote that \"it's been a long time since three-part harmonies this lush were yoked to songs this melodically gorgeous.\" Come and luxuriate in the sounds of the harmony trio of the year! The Sweet Remains come to town with new music—they've been releasing a song a month.

She paints intuitively to music\, spontaneously\, with no plan in mind and with as little thought as possible. She sees the first marks of black calligraphy as the hint of a language revealing bird wisdom hidden beneath successive layers of color. She paints the white layer last\, unifying all of the elements in the painting. Harold uses not only a brush\, but also fingers\, squeegee and oil sticks to capture the fleeting nature of birds. An ordained Unity minister\, Harold aims for this series to inspire the discovery of inner solutions to difficult issues that have so far eluded resolution by ordinary means.

Stamps School of Art and Design. In this body of work\, she reflects on how time spent in nature has inspired new personal discoveries and intellectual curiosity\, while serving as a positive distraction from recent experiences with grief and sadness. Drawing from these insights\, Mondro crocheted and stitched fine wire to create intricate woven sculptures reminiscent of seeds\, pods and other organic forms. Focusing on the wonderfully complex construction of these forms\, Mondro mimics nature’s ability to be structurally strong while delicate in appearance to invite deeper exploration.

Her work includes realist oil paintings of common everyday objects and abstracted subjects portrayed in gouache (opaque watercolor) on paper. This recent body of work evolved from years of photographing rooftops\, playgrounds\, houses and aerial views\, and digitally manipulating them to create colorful and quirky compositions. The scenes are not intended to be specific locales\, but rather to celebrate the color\, shape\, rhythm and structure found in our daily environment. Gouache is a medium which requires slow and careful application and reflects the artist’s view of painting as a meditative pursuit.

Celerin’s family emigrated from Czechoslovakia to Canada in 1968 as political refugees escaping Soviet rule.

Though government is an important arbiter of the market\, it is business that transcends national boundaries\, possessing resources that exceed those of many nations. \n\nProfessor Andrew Hoffman will discuss the ways in which climate change is altering and will alter markets\, and the kinds of resulting responses from the business sector.\n\nProfessor Hoffman\, Holcim (U.S.) Professor of Sustainable Enterprise\, University of Michigan Ross School of Business and University of Michigan School for Environment and Sustainability\, performs research using organizational behavior models and theories to understand the cultural and institutional aspects of environmental issues for organizations.

How can we resolve conflict and manage serious differences without assaulting and killing each other? Among the reasons suggested for why we are violent is that religion tells us to do so. What is the link between religion and violence? Does religion necessarily involve violence? Can religion help us to curb violence? Are some religions more violent than others? Why? Why not? These are some of the questions we shall consider in this course in lectures and discussions. Kenneth E. Phifer is a retired Unitarian Universalist minister.

Through a selection of mid-century to contemporary Inuit prints\, drawings\, and sculptures that portray seemingly ordinary reflections of daily life along with daydreaming meditations\, the exhibition bridges the mundane and the fantastic. Together\, these artworks present a distinct imagery and a visual poetry culled from the day-to-day reality of life in the far polar north. The perspectives range from soaring gazes at the horizon to glimpses of commonplace social interactions. These contemplations reveal intimate connections among the artists\, their communities\, and their locale—a specific place and time composed of icy regions and vast seas and tundras. Reflections: An Ordinary Day takes visitors on a lyrical journey of the myriad spaces and routines within an Arctic landscape.\n\nThis exhibition is made possible by the Power Family Program for Inuit Art\, established in 2018 through the generosity of Philip and Kathy Power.

Witt Artist in Residence Courtney McClellan\, Witness Lab frames witnessing as a social and artistic act. The gallery collapses courtroom\, theater\, classroom\, laboratory\, and artist studio in order to study the relationship between performance and law. In hosting mock trials\, court transcript readings\, and trial advocacy workshops\, the artist investigates who performs the role of witness in our society and how that understanding may map onto the narrower legal definition of the role. The installation will host legal simulations from participating groups\, including the Trial Advocacy Society and the Oral Argument Competition from the University of Michigan Law School\, as well as the undergraduate team of the Collegiate American Mock Trial Association. Taking the role of courtroom sketch artists\, or court reporters\, students from the U-M Stamps School of Art and Design will observe and document the courtroom performances through drawing\, text\, photography\, and video.\n\nWitness Lab is presented in partnership with the Roman J. Witt Artist in Residence Program of the Penny W. Stamps School of Art & Design\, with lead support provided by the University of Michigan Law School and Office of the Provost.

Although we have traditionally thought of our different senses (touch\, taste\, etc.) as separate and having distinct jobs to do\, it is becoming clear that the brain is not so neatly compartmentalized. Signals from different senses interact with each other\, and the same information about the world can be accessed via different sensory channels. These discoveries have been important for understanding our auditory sense. We are finding that perception of things that were assumed to rely on vision or touch\, such as shape\, size or motions of objects\, may also be perceived through sound. However\, while this research has largely focussed on how we recognize these sorts of aspects of objects and events\, perception is primarily for helping us navigate and interact with the world around us. That is\, perception is intimately connected with action and vice versa. To get a better picture of the roles and potentials of the auditory sense\, we need to explore how sounds can be actively brought into use to coordinate purposeful behavior. In this presentation\, I will discuss research into how auditory perception can influence and guide different types of action. I will also describe some real-world scenarios in which these processes may be applied\, including clinical gait rehabilitation and motor skill learning.

His plans are derailed when he meets Edyth Herbert\, a British ingénue who previously swam the English Channel and now performs in an Aquacade under the thumb of the villainous Prince Nikki. Can the two navigate the obstacles in their path as they sing and dance their way toward love?\n\nMy One and Only opened on Broadway in 1983 starring Tommy Tune and Twiggy. It was a huge success\, garnering nine Tony Award nominations and three wins for Best Actor\, Best Featured Actor\, and Best Choreography. The latter award\, shared by star Tommy Tune and his co-choreographer Thommie Walsh\, was especially well deserved: critic Frank Rich of The New York Times said that the show “levitates with some of the most inspired choreography Broadway has seen in several seasons.” With numerous show-stopping dance numbers set to timeless Gershwin tunes\, My One and Only guarantees a toe-tapping good time!

She paints intuitively to music\, spontaneously\, with no plan in mind and with as little thought as possible. She sees the first marks of black calligraphy as the hint of a language revealing bird wisdom hidden beneath successive layers of color. She paints the white layer last\, unifying all of the elements in the painting. Harold uses not only a brush\, but also fingers\, squeegee and oil sticks to capture the fleeting nature of birds. An ordained Unity minister\, Harold aims for this series to inspire the discovery of inner solutions to difficult issues that have so far eluded resolution by ordinary means.

Stamps School of Art and Design. In this body of work\, she reflects on how time spent in nature has inspired new personal discoveries and intellectual curiosity\, while serving as a positive distraction from recent experiences with grief and sadness. Drawing from these insights\, Mondro crocheted and stitched fine wire to create intricate woven sculptures reminiscent of seeds\, pods and other organic forms. Focusing on the wonderfully complex construction of these forms\, Mondro mimics nature’s ability to be structurally strong while delicate in appearance to invite deeper exploration.

Her work includes realist oil paintings of common everyday objects and abstracted subjects portrayed in gouache (opaque watercolor) on paper. This recent body of work evolved from years of photographing rooftops\, playgrounds\, houses and aerial views\, and digitally manipulating them to create colorful and quirky compositions. The scenes are not intended to be specific locales\, but rather to celebrate the color\, shape\, rhythm and structure found in our daily environment. Gouache is a medium which requires slow and careful application and reflects the artist’s view of painting as a meditative pursuit.

Celerin’s family emigrated from Czechoslovakia to Canada in 1968 as political refugees escaping Soviet rule. Both a molecular geneticist and artist\, her artistic medium is a sophisticated blend of highly dimensional weaving\, crochet\, needle felting\, and other fiber-based techniques that incorporates everyday reclaimed and recycled materials to help tell a story. The pieces on exhibit are drawn from a larger body of work that translates the extraordinary challenges of modern-day human migration and notes the parallel phenomena in animals.

A firm believer that there is no such thing as garbage\, and a great observer of nature’s cycle of creating and breaking down\, she has constructed numerous cement vessels to hold all these objects that proliferate the studio. These finds\, the vessels that hold them\, and the totems that pay tribute to them\, all keep her company\, inspire her\, and keep her calm in her temple-like studio in the woods outside of Chelsea\, Michigan.

The compositions explore the ancient Greek public space as a site for activated assembly and the heart of the artistic\, spiritual\, and political life of the city. UMMA’s installation is designed with an actual public square at its center\, complete with sound components featuring noted political and aesthetic discourse and surrounded by Washington’s soaring monumental collages. Works from four earlier series by the artist form the perimeter of the Museum’s largest special exhibition space. The artist describes his work as “abstract meditations on the grid and humanity.”\n\nLead support for this exhibition is provided by Erica Gervais Pappendick and Ted Pappendick\, Candy and Michael Barasch\, the University of Michigan Office of the Provost\, Michigan Medicine\, the Michigan Council for Arts and Cultural Affairs\, and the Institute for the Humanities.

Through a selection of mid-century to contemporary Inuit prints\, drawings\, and sculptures that portray seemingly ordinary reflections of daily life along with daydreaming meditations\, the exhibition bridges the mundane and the fantastic. Together\, these artworks present a distinct imagery and a visual poetry culled from the day-to-day reality of life in the far polar north. The perspectives range from soaring gazes at the horizon to glimpses of commonplace social interactions. These contemplations reveal intimate connections among the artists\, their communities\, and their locale—a specific place and time composed of icy regions and vast seas and tundras. Reflections: An Ordinary Day takes visitors on a lyrical journey of the myriad spaces and routines within an Arctic landscape.\n\nThis exhibition is made possible by the Power Family Program for Inuit Art\, established in 2018 through the generosity of Philip and Kathy Power.

Witt Artist in Residence Courtney McClellan\, Witness Lab frames witnessing as a social and artistic act. The gallery collapses courtroom\, theater\, classroom\, laboratory\, and artist studio in order to study the relationship between performance and law. In hosting mock trials\, court transcript readings\, and trial advocacy workshops\, the artist investigates who performs the role of witness in our society and how that understanding may map onto the narrower legal definition of the role. The installation will host legal simulations from participating groups\, including the Trial Advocacy Society and the Oral Argument Competition from the University of Michigan Law School\, as well as the undergraduate team of the Collegiate American Mock Trial Association. Taking the role of courtroom sketch artists\, or court reporters\, students from the U-M Stamps School of Art and Design will observe and document the courtroom performances through drawing\, text\, photography\, and video.\n\nWitness Lab is presented in partnership with the Roman J. Witt Artist in Residence Program of the Penny W. Stamps School of Art & Design\, with lead support provided by the University of Michigan Law School and Office of the Provost.

It will be rescheduled at a later date.*\n\nSince the nation’s founding\, Americans have used images to define political power and gender roles. Popular pictures praised male political leaders\, while cartoons mocked women who sought rights. In the mid-nineteenth century\, women’s rights activists like Sojourner Truth and Susan B. Anthony challenged these powerful norms by distributing engraved and photographic portraits that represented women as political leaders. Over time\, suffragists developed a national visual campaign to win voting rights. Their photographs captured their public protests and demonstrated their dedication to their cause for mass audiences.\n\nAllison K. Lange\, PhD is an assistant professor of history at the Wentworth Institute of Technology\, published essayist and public historian. In preparation for the 2020 centennial of the Nineteenth Amendment\, she is curating exhibitions at the Massachusetts Historical Society and Harvard’s Schlesinger Library. Lange’s talk is based on her forthcoming book\, \"Picturing Political Power: Images in the Women’s Suffrage Movement.\"\n\nThis lecture is a part of the Clements Library's Randolph G. Adams Lecture Series and is co-sponsored by the Michigan Photographic Historical Society.

Mayer\nDirected and Choreographed by Linda Goodrich\nMusic Direction by Catherine A. Walker\n\nMy One and Only is a delightfully frothy romp\, buoyed by a tuneful Gershwin score and exuberant dance numbers. Conceived as a new book for the Gershwins' most-loved songs\, My One and Only features such standards as ‘’S Wonderful\,” “Funny Face\,” “I Can’t Be Bothered Now\,” “Strike Up the Band\,” “Nice Work If You Can Get It” and “Kickin’ the Clouds Away.” It's 1927 New York\, and aviator Billy Buck Chandler is determined to be the first man to fly solo across the Atlantic. His plans are derailed when he meets Edyth Herbert\, a British ingénue who previously swam the English Channel and now performs in an Aquacade under the thumb of the villainous Prince Nikki. Can the two navigate the obstacles in their path as they sing and dance their way toward love?\n\nMy One and Only opened on Broadway in 1983 starring Tommy Tune and Twiggy. It was a huge success\, garnering nine Tony Award nominations and three wins for Best Actor\, Best Featured Actor\, and Best Choreography. The latter award\, shared by star Tommy Tune and his co-choreographer Thommie Walsh\, was especially well deserved: critic Frank Rich of The New York Times said that the show “levitates with some of the most inspired choreography Broadway has seen in several seasons.” With numerous show-stopping dance numbers set to timeless Gershwin tunes\, My One and Only guarantees a toe-tapping good time!

She paints intuitively to music\, spontaneously\, with no plan in mind and with as little thought as possible. She sees the first marks of black calligraphy as the hint of a language revealing bird wisdom hidden beneath successive layers of color. She paints the white layer last\, unifying all of the elements in the painting. Harold uses not only a brush\, but also fingers\, squeegee and oil sticks to capture the fleeting nature of birds. An ordained Unity minister\, Harold aims for this series to inspire the discovery of inner solutions to difficult issues that have so far eluded resolution by ordinary means.

Stamps School of Art and Design. In this body of work\, she reflects on how time spent in nature has inspired new personal discoveries and intellectual curiosity\, while serving as a positive distraction from recent experiences with grief and sadness. Drawing from these insights\, Mondro crocheted and stitched fine wire to create intricate woven sculptures reminiscent of seeds\, pods and other organic forms. Focusing on the wonderfully complex construction of these forms\, Mondro mimics nature’s ability to be structurally strong while delicate in appearance to invite deeper exploration.

Her work includes realist oil paintings of common everyday objects and abstracted subjects portrayed in gouache (opaque watercolor) on paper. This recent body of work evolved from years of photographing rooftops\, playgrounds\, houses and aerial views\, and digitally manipulating them to create colorful and quirky compositions. The scenes are not intended to be specific locales\, but rather to celebrate the color\, shape\, rhythm and structure found in our daily environment. Gouache is a medium which requires slow and careful application and reflects the artist’s view of painting as a meditative pursuit.

Celerin’s family emigrated from Czechoslovakia to Canada in 1968 as political refugees escaping Soviet rule. Both a molecular geneticist and artist\, her artistic medium is a sophisticated blend of highly dimensional weaving\, crochet\, needle felting\, and other fiber-based techniques that incorporates everyday reclaimed and recycled materials to help tell a story. The pieces on exhibit are drawn from a larger body of work that translates the extraordinary challenges of modern-day human migration and notes the parallel phenomena in animals.

Over the years\, she has collected\, saved\, garbage-rescued\, and gathered objects that capture her attention. A firm believer that there is no such thing as garbage\, and a great observer of nature’s cycle of creating and breaking down\, she has constructed numerous cement vessels to hold all these objects that proliferate the studio. These finds\, the vessels that hold them\, and the totems that pay tribute to them\, all keep her company\, inspire her\, and keep her calm in her temple-like studio in the woods outside of Chelsea\, Michigan.

Kaleidoscope\, UMMA’s third and final edition of this exhibition series\, examines the constantly changing practices of local Detroit artists\, women artists\, and artists of color as they actively embraced abstraction’s possibilities.

The compositions explore the ancient Greek public space as a site for activated assembly and the heart of the artistic\, spiritual\, and political life of the city. UMMA’s installation is designed with an actual public square at its center\, complete with sound components featuring noted political and aesthetic discourse and surrounded by Washington’s soaring monumental collages. Works from four earlier series by the artist form the perimeter of the Museum’s largest special exhibition space. The artist describes his work as “abstract meditations on the grid and humanity.”\n\nLead support for this exhibition is provided by Erica Gervais Pappendick and Ted Pappendick\, Candy and Michael Barasch\, the University of Michigan Office of the Provost\, Michigan Medicine\, the Michigan Council for Arts and Cultural Affairs\, and the Institute for the Humanities.

Through a selection of mid-century to contemporary Inuit prints\, drawings\, and sculptures that portray seemingly ordinary reflections of daily life along with daydreaming meditations\, the exhibition bridges the mundane and the fantastic. Together\, these artworks present a distinct imagery and a visual poetry culled from the day-to-day reality of life in the far polar north. The perspectives range from soaring gazes at the horizon to glimpses of commonplace social interactions. These contemplations reveal intimate connections among the artists\, their communities\, and their locale—a specific place and time composed of icy regions and vast seas and tundras. Reflections: An Ordinary Day takes visitors on a lyrical journey of the myriad spaces and routines within an Arctic landscape.\n\nThis exhibition is made possible by the Power Family Program for Inuit Art\, established in 2018 through the generosity of Philip and Kathy Power.

Witt Artist in Residence Courtney McClellan\, Witness Lab frames witnessing as a social and artistic act. The gallery collapses courtroom\, theater\, classroom\, laboratory\, and artist studio in order to study the relationship between performance and law. In hosting mock trials\, court transcript readings\, and trial advocacy workshops\, the artist investigates who performs the role of witness in our society and how that understanding may map onto the narrower legal definition of the role. The installation will host legal simulations from participating groups\, including the Trial Advocacy Society and the Oral Argument Competition from the University of Michigan Law School\, as well as the undergraduate team of the Collegiate American Mock Trial Association. Taking the role of courtroom sketch artists\, or court reporters\, students from the U-M Stamps School of Art and Design will observe and document the courtroom performances through drawing\, text\, photography\, and video.\n\nWitness Lab is presented in partnership with the Roman J. Witt Artist in Residence Program of the Penny W. Stamps School of Art & Design\, with lead support provided by the University of Michigan Law School and Office of the Provost.

Mayer\nDirected and Choreographed by Linda Goodrich\nMusic Direction by Catherine A. Walker\n\nMy One and Only is a delightfully frothy romp\, buoyed by a tuneful Gershwin score and exuberant dance numbers. Conceived as a new book for the Gershwins' most-loved songs\, My One and Only features such standards as ‘’S Wonderful\,” “Funny Face\,” “I Can’t Be Bothered Now\,” “Strike Up the Band\,” “Nice Work If You Can Get It” and “Kickin’ the Clouds Away.” It's 1927 New York\, and aviator Billy Buck Chandler is determined to be the first man to fly solo across the Atlantic. His plans are derailed when he meets Edyth Herbert\, a British ingénue who previously swam the English Channel and now performs in an Aquacade under the thumb of the villainous Prince Nikki. Can the two navigate the obstacles in their path as they sing and dance their way toward love?\n\nMy One and Only opened on Broadway in 1983 starring Tommy Tune and Twiggy. It was a huge success\, garnering nine Tony Award nominations and three wins for Best Actor\, Best Featured Actor\, and Best Choreography. The latter award\, shared by star Tommy Tune and his co-choreographer Thommie Walsh\, was especially well deserved: critic Frank Rich of The New York Times said that the show “levitates with some of the most inspired choreography Broadway has seen in several seasons.” With numerous show-stopping dance numbers set to timeless Gershwin tunes\, My One and Only guarantees a toe-tapping good time!

She paints intuitively to music\, spontaneously\, with no plan in mind and with as little thought as possible. She sees the first marks of black calligraphy as the hint of a language revealing bird wisdom hidden beneath successive layers of color. She paints the white layer last\, unifying all of the elements in the painting. Harold uses not only a brush\, but also fingers\, squeegee and oil sticks to capture the fleeting nature of birds. An ordained Unity minister\, Harold aims for this series to inspire the discovery of inner solutions to difficult issues that have so far eluded resolution by ordinary means.

Stamps School of Art and Design. In this body of work\, she reflects on how time spent in nature has inspired new personal discoveries and intellectual curiosity\, while serving as a positive distraction from recent experiences with grief and sadness. Drawing from these insights\, Mondro crocheted and stitched fine wire to create intricate woven sculptures reminiscent of seeds\, pods and other organic forms. Focusing on the wonderfully complex construction of these forms\, Mondro mimics nature’s ability to be structurally strong while delicate in appearance to invite deeper exploration.

Her work includes realist oil paintings of common everyday objects and abstracted subjects portrayed in gouache (opaque watercolor) on paper. This recent body of work evolved from years of photographing rooftops\, playgrounds\, houses and aerial views\, and digitally manipulating them to create colorful and quirky compositions. The scenes are not intended to be specific locales\, but rather to celebrate the color\, shape\, rhythm and structure found in our daily environment. Gouache is a medium which requires slow and careful application and reflects the artist’s view of painting as a meditative pursuit.

Celerin’s family emigrated from Czechoslovakia to Canada in 1968 as political refugees escaping Soviet rule. Both a molecular geneticist and artist\, her artistic medium is a sophisticated blend of highly dimensional weaving\, crochet\, needle felting\, and other fiber-based techniques that incorporates everyday reclaimed and recycled materials to help tell a story. The pieces on exhibit are drawn from a larger body of work that translates the extraordinary challenges of modern-day human migration and notes the parallel phenomena in animals.

A firm believer that there is no such thing as garbage\, and a great observer of nature’s cycle of creating and breaking down\, she has constructed numerous cement vessels to hold all these objects that proliferate the studio. These finds\, the vessels that hold them\, and the totems that pay tribute to them\, all keep her company\, inspire her\, and keep her calm in her temple-like studio in the woods outside of Chelsea\, Michigan.

The primary objective of the Write-Together—to provide a supportive community environment where you can make progress on larger writing projects—does not change in the move from in-person to remote. As we start redefining what our daily lives look like\, having a virtual community in place to hold yourself accountable to your larger writing goals can be a potentially anchoring structure. If you are able to join us\, we will look forward to touching base with you about your writing goals\, and holding space for writing assistance as needed.\nYou can join the BlueJeans meeting by clicking on the link below\, or dialing in by phone. This is set up to be a chat-only meeting\, so that we don’t overtax the server\, though we may enable cameras at later meetings if participants prefer it.\nMeeting URL: https://bluejeans.com/620444349\nMeeting ID: 620 444 349\nWant to dial in from a phone?\nDial one of the following numbers:\n\n1.312.216.0325 (US [Chicago])\n1.408.614.7898 (United States)\n\nEnter the meeting ID followed by #. We look forward to writing together with you!\nWrite-Together sessions provide structure\, space\, and time for graduate writers working on writing at any stage\, from papers to theses to journal articles to dissertations and more. Write-Together sessions bring graduate writers into a common quiet space to work. We will periodically offer helpful handouts on a range of writing and work productivity topics\, and a Sweetland representative will also be on-site to answer any brief writing questions you may have. Breakfast refreshments will be provided.\nCo-sponsored by the Rackham Graduate School and the Sweetland Center for Writing.

At times\, innovative solutions aren’t being implemented because we aren’t hearing each other out\, literally. Studies show most people do not listen with the intent to understand but with the intent to reply. Building active listening skills can lead to more meaningful conversations and efficient results to workplace dilemmas. Join us to explore the importance of connecting with others and the common barriers that we face when trying to work together.\n\nThis Community Conversation explores the nature of conflict and opens dialogue regarding the strategies you use to manage conflict.\n\n*Please note that we welcome and encourage participants to bring forth topics at these sessions.

Each part of the framework uses a different representation of the deformable object that is well suited for the specific requirements of each component. The key idea behind these techniques is that we do not need to explicitly model and control every part of the deformable object\, instead relying on the object's natural compliance in many situations. \n\nFor the second question\, I consider the two major components of my framework and examine what can cause failure in each. The goal then is to learn from experience gathered while performing tasks in order to avoid making the same mistake again and again. To this end I formulate the controller's task as a Multi-Armed Bandit problem\, enabling the controller to chose models based on the current circumstances. For the planner\, I present a method to learn when we can rely on the robot's model of the deformable object\, enabling the planner to avoid generating plans that are infeasible.\n\nThis framework is demonstrated in simulation with free floating grippers as well as on a 16 DoF physical robot\, where reachability and dual-arm constraints make the tasks more difficult.\n\nDale's research interest include machine learning\, controls\, and motion planning. He is currently working on applying ideas from these fields to deformable object manipulation and related topics. In particular Dale is interested in algorithms that enable robots to perform tasks such as folding clothes\, or making a bed\, that are easy for humans to master\, but are extremely challenging for robots. Dale graduated from Carnegie Mellon University with both college and university honors\, and is also the recipient of the Frank J. Marshall Scholar Award.

Please use this link to attend: https://bluejeans.com/724046777. (Participant Passcode: 6533)\n\nAbstract: Nice Wanton is a Tudor moral interlude that would put even the most lurid public service announcement to shame: truant schoolchildren are destined for lives of crime and misery\, sexually transmitted diseases are fatal markers of moral failing\, and a great deal is blamed on lax parenting. The interlude's pedagogical message is recursive and explicit\; the Prologue offers the play as a dramatization of the axiom “spare the rod\, spoil the child\,” a message repeated by several of the virtuous characters within the play. However\, given the uncertain multiplicities of the play’s history\, it’s difficult to ascertain exactly where\, by whom\, and for whom the zealous moralizing of Nice Wanton was performed. Instead\, this paper focuses on Nice Wanton’s surprisingly robust afterlife in performance anthologies or series. Given time constraints\, I am going to focus on the 1911 New Theatre production\, which offered Nice Wanton as one performance in a multi-part series that introduced American audiences to the history of early English drama. This series also included the Chester play “Noah’s Flood\,” and excerpts from The Winter’s Tale\, The School for Scandal\, and The Thunderbolt. In this paper\, I attempt to trace the history of this performance of Nice Wanton and explore why this interlude resonated with an excerpted theatrical series with an eye towards audience pedagogy. More specifically\, I argue that the central time-lapse structure of Nice Wanton\, especially when put in dialogue with other excerpted plays\, puts pressure on the work of excerpting\, and ellipses as meaning-making. Ironically\, the features of Nice Wanton that make it particularly attractive in performance anthologies or series— it’s length\, it’s boisterous pedagogical simplicity—also create the conditions to make visible the narrative instability of the interlude.

She paints intuitively to music\, spontaneously\, with no plan in mind and with as little thought as possible. She sees the first marks of black calligraphy as the hint of a language revealing bird wisdom hidden beneath successive layers of color. She paints the white layer last\, unifying all of the elements in the painting. Harold uses not only a brush\, but also fingers\, squeegee and oil sticks to capture the fleeting nature of birds. An ordained Unity minister\, Harold aims for this series to inspire the discovery of inner solutions to difficult issues that have so far eluded resolution by ordinary means.

Stamps School of Art and Design. In this body of work\, she reflects on how time spent in nature has inspired new personal discoveries and intellectual curiosity\, while serving as a positive distraction from recent experiences with grief and sadness. Drawing from these insights\, Mondro crocheted and stitched fine wire to create intricate woven sculptures reminiscent of seeds\, pods and other organic forms. Focusing on the wonderfully complex construction of these forms\, Mondro mimics nature’s ability to be structurally strong while delicate in appearance to invite deeper exploration.

Her work includes realist oil paintings of common everyday objects and abstracted subjects portrayed in gouache (opaque watercolor) on paper. This recent body of work evolved from years of photographing rooftops\, playgrounds\, houses and aerial views\, and digitally manipulating them to create colorful and quirky compositions. The scenes are not intended to be specific locales\, but rather to celebrate the color\, shape\, rhythm and structure found in our daily environment. Gouache is a medium which requires slow and careful application and reflects the artist’s view of painting as a meditative pursuit.

Celerin’s family emigrated from Czechoslovakia to Canada in 1968 as political refugees escaping Soviet rule. Both a molecular geneticist and artist\, her artistic medium is a sophisticated blend of highly dimensional weaving\, crochet\, needle felting\, and other fiber-based techniques that incorporates everyday reclaimed and recycled materials to help tell a story. The pieces on exhibit are drawn from a larger body of work that translates the extraordinary challenges of modern-day human migration and notes the parallel phenomena in animals.

Over the years\, she has collected\, saved\, garbage-rescued\, and gathered objects that capture her attention. A firm believer that there is no such thing as garbage\, and a great observer of nature’s cycle of creating and breaking down\, she has constructed numerous cement vessels to hold all these objects that proliferate the studio. These finds\, the vessels that hold them\, and the totems that pay tribute to them\, all keep her company\, inspire her\, and keep her calm in her temple-like studio in the woods outside of Chelsea\, Michigan.

Kaleidoscope\, UMMA’s third and final edition of this exhibition series\, examines the constantly changing practices of local Detroit artists\, women artists\, and artists of color as they actively embraced abstraction’s possibilities.

It exchanges Alumni Memorial Hall's previous focus on European and American painting for a broad mix of American\, European\, African\, and Asian art from across media\, sampling the Museum's remarkable\, disparate holdings. The installation is organized into thematic and formal vignettes that respond to the concepts and ideas resonating from an extraordinary large-scale photograph of a vacant cathedral by contemporary German artist Candida Höfer. Featuring works of art by numerous famous and not-so-famous artists\, many of them artists of color and women—including Charles Alston\, Christo\, Theaster Gates\, Jenny Holzer\, Roni Horn\, Do-Ho Suh\, Kara Walker\, and others\, Collection Ensemble reimagines the collection not as a fixed entity with one set of meanings to be unearthed\, but instead as an active\, creative\, sometimes startling source of material and ideas\, open for debate and interpretation.\n \nRead the exhibition press release here.\n \nJOIN US FOR THE GRAND OPENING AT UMMA AFTER HOURS Tuesday\, April 2 7–10 p.m.\n \nGallery talks\, live music\, and more!

The compositions explore the ancient Greek public space as a site for activated assembly and the heart of the artistic\, spiritual\, and political life of the city. UMMA’s installation is designed with an actual public square at its center\, complete with sound components featuring noted political and aesthetic discourse and surrounded by Washington’s soaring monumental collages. Works from four earlier series by the artist form the perimeter of the Museum’s largest special exhibition space. The artist describes his work as “abstract meditations on the grid and humanity.”\n\nLead support for this exhibition is provided by Erica Gervais Pappendick and Ted Pappendick\, Candy and Michael Barasch\, the University of Michigan Office of the Provost\, Michigan Medicine\, the Michigan Council for Arts and Cultural Affairs\, and the Institute for the Humanities.

Through a selection of mid-century to contemporary Inuit prints\, drawings\, and sculptures that portray seemingly ordinary reflections of daily life along with daydreaming meditations\, the exhibition bridges the mundane and the fantastic. Together\, these artworks present a distinct imagery and a visual poetry culled from the day-to-day reality of life in the far polar north. The perspectives range from soaring gazes at the horizon to glimpses of commonplace social interactions. These contemplations reveal intimate connections among the artists\, their communities\, and their locale—a specific place and time composed of icy regions and vast seas and tundras. Reflections: An Ordinary Day takes visitors on a lyrical journey of the myriad spaces and routines within an Arctic landscape.\n\nThis exhibition is made possible by the Power Family Program for Inuit Art\, established in 2018 through the generosity of Philip and Kathy Power.

Witt Artist in Residence Courtney McClellan\, Witness Lab frames witnessing as a social and artistic act. The gallery collapses courtroom\, theater\, classroom\, laboratory\, and artist studio in order to study the relationship between performance and law. In hosting mock trials\, court transcript readings\, and trial advocacy workshops\, the artist investigates who performs the role of witness in our society and how that understanding may map onto the narrower legal definition of the role. The installation will host legal simulations from participating groups\, including the Trial Advocacy Society and the Oral Argument Competition from the University of Michigan Law School\, as well as the undergraduate team of the Collegiate American Mock Trial Association. Taking the role of courtroom sketch artists\, or court reporters\, students from the U-M Stamps School of Art and Design will observe and document the courtroom performances through drawing\, text\, photography\, and video.\n\nWitness Lab is presented in partnership with the Roman J. Witt Artist in Residence Program of the Penny W. Stamps School of Art & Design\, with lead support provided by the University of Michigan Law School and Office of the Provost.

The link will be placed below.\n\nZoom Link: https://umich.zoom.us/j/7013698675\n\nChildren with hypoplastic left heart syndrome (HLHS) must undergo multiple surgical stages to reconstruct the anatomy to a sustainable single ventricle system. Stage I palliation\, or the Norwood procedure\, enables circulation to both pulmonary and systemic vasculature. The aorta is reconstructed and attached to the right ventricle and a fraction of systemic flow is redirected to the pulmonary arteries (PAs) through a systemic-to-pulmonary artery shunt. Despite abundant hemodynamic data available 4-5 months after palliation\, data is very scarce immediately following stage I. This data is critical in determining post-operative success. In this work\, we combined population data and computational fluid dynamics (CFD) to characterize hemodynamics immediately following stage I (post-stage I) and prior to stage II palliation (pre-stage II). A patient-specific model was constructed as a baseline geometry\, which was then scaled to reflect population-based morphological data at both time-points. Population-based hemodynamic data was also used to calibrate each model to reproduce blood flow representative of HLHS patients.\n \nThe post-stage I simulation produced a mean PA pressure of 22 mmHg and high-frequency oscillations within the flow field indicating highly disturbed hemodynamics. Despite mean PA pressure dropping to 14 mmHg\, the pre-stage II model also produced high-frequency flow components and PA wall shear stress increases. These suboptimal conditions result from the need to ensure adequate PA flow throughout the pre-stage II period\, as the shunt becomes relatively smaller compared to the growing patient size. In the future\, CFD can be used to optimize shunt design and minimize these suboptimal conditions.\n\nChair: Dr. Alberto Figueroa UID:74331-18633862@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/74331 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Basic Science,Biointerfaces,Biology,biomedical,biomedical engineering,Bioninterfaces,Biosciences,Biotechnology,bme,engineer,engineering,Life Science,Michigan Engineering,Science LOCATION:Off Campus Location CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20200506T123016 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20200421T150000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20200421T160000 SUMMARY:Careers / Jobs:BofA Career Lab: Charting Your Course DESCRIPTION:At Bank of America\, we’ll match your drive and ambition to where you can make a real impact. \n\nWe invite interested freshmen and sophomores to join our team of recruiters and professionals for a live webcast.

The link will be posted below.\n\nBlue Jeans link: https://bluejeans.com/6788336326\n\nWe propose a novel optimization algorithm for radiofrequency (RF) pulse design in magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)\, that regularizes the magnitude and phase of the target (desired) magnetization pattern separately. This approach may be useful across applications where the relative importance of achieving accurate magnitude or phase excitation varies\; for example\, saturation pulses \"care\" only about the magnitude excitation pattern. We apply our new design to the problem of spin \"prephasing\" in 3D functional MRI using blood-oxygen-level-dependent (BOLD) contrast\; spin prephasing pulses can mitigate the signal loss observed near air/tissue boundaries due to the presence of local susceptibility gradients. We show that our algorithm can improve the simulation performance and recover some signal in some regions with steep susceptibility gradients. In all cases\, our algorithm shows better phase correction than a conventional design based on minimizing the complex difference between the target and realized patterns. The algorithm is open-source and the computation time is feasible for online applications. In addition\, we evaluate the impact of the choice of (initial) excitation k-space trajectories\, both in terms of trajectory type (SPINS vs extended KT points) and overall pulse duration.\n\nChair: Dr. Jon-Fredrik Nielsen UID:74183-18559840@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/74183 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Basic Science,Biointerfaces,Biology,biomedical,biomedical engineering,Bioninterfaces,Biosciences,Biotechnology,bme,Chemistry,Civil and Environmental Engineering,Dissertation,engineer,Life Science,Mechanical Engineering,Michigan Engineering,Natural Sciences,Science LOCATION: CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20200313T135257 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20200421T150000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20200421T160000 SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Webinar: Restoring Native Oysters on North America's West Coast DESCRIPTION:Conservation and restoration of coastal foundation species has become a global priority\, to protect and enhance the habitats and services they provide. The oyster native to the west coast of North America between Baja California and British Columbia is Ostrea lurida\, the Olympia oyster\, a species quite unfamiliar to many people\, even those that live in the region. Unlike oysters in other regions\, this one is quite small\, and does not form high profile reefs. Nevertheless\, it is a vital part of bays and estuaries along the Pacific coast\, providing food for humans and other species and enriching diversity. Recently\, a community of practice has formed to rebuild populations of Olympia oysters to maintain their legacy for future generations. \n\nThe Native Olympia Oyster Collaborative (NOOC) was supported in the past year by funding from the National Estuarine Research Reserve System’s Science Collaborative. NOOC created a website (https://olympiaoysternet.ucdavis.edu) to serve as a portal for resources about native oyster science\, restoration\, and education. NOOC also compiled the first comprehensive archive of Olympia oyster restoration projects\, creating an ARC GIS Story Map (https://projects.trnerr.org/oystermap/) to highlight them\, and conducting a synthesis of approaches and lessons learned.\n\nThis webinar introduces the unique ecology of the Olympia oyster\, the challenges it faces\, and approaches taken to restoration. NOOC’s accomplishments to date will be highlighted\, including the development of the web portal and story map. Finally\, presenters will share lessons learned from the synthesis of twenty years of restoration projects conducted along over 2000 km of coast line. These lessons apply to restoration of any coastal foundation species anywhere: the importance of a structured decision-framework to match goals to approaches\, the opportunities for community engagement\, the need to consider ecosystem processes\, and the value of a regional network for strategic planning.

She paints intuitively to music\, spontaneously\, with no plan in mind and with as little thought as possible. She sees the first marks of black calligraphy as the hint of a language revealing bird wisdom hidden beneath successive layers of color. She paints the white layer last\, unifying all of the elements in the painting. Harold uses not only a brush\, but also fingers\, squeegee and oil sticks to capture the fleeting nature of birds. An ordained Unity minister\, Harold aims for this series to inspire the discovery of inner solutions to difficult issues that have so far eluded resolution by ordinary means.

Stamps School of Art and Design. In this body of work\, she reflects on how time spent in nature has inspired new personal discoveries and intellectual curiosity\, while serving as a positive distraction from recent experiences with grief and sadness. Drawing from these insights\, Mondro crocheted and stitched fine wire to create intricate woven sculptures reminiscent of seeds\, pods and other organic forms. Focusing on the wonderfully complex construction of these forms\, Mondro mimics nature’s ability to be structurally strong while delicate in appearance to invite deeper exploration.

Her work includes realist oil paintings of common everyday objects and abstracted subjects portrayed in gouache (opaque watercolor) on paper. This recent body of work evolved from years of photographing rooftops\, playgrounds\, houses and aerial views\, and digitally manipulating them to create colorful and quirky compositions. The scenes are not intended to be specific locales\, but rather to celebrate the color\, shape\, rhythm and structure found in our daily environment. Gouache is a medium which requires slow and careful application and reflects the artist’s view of painting as a meditative pursuit.

Celerin’s family emigrated from Czechoslovakia to Canada in 1968 as political refugees escaping Soviet rule. Both a molecular geneticist and artist\, her artistic medium is a sophisticated blend of highly dimensional weaving\, crochet\, needle felting\, and other fiber-based techniques that incorporates everyday reclaimed and recycled materials to help tell a story. The pieces on exhibit are drawn from a larger body of work that translates the extraordinary challenges of modern-day human migration and notes the parallel phenomena in animals.

Over the years\, she has collected\, saved\, garbage-rescued\, and gathered objects that capture her attention. A firm believer that there is no such thing as garbage\, and a great observer of nature’s cycle of creating and breaking down\, she has constructed numerous cement vessels to hold all these objects that proliferate the studio. These finds\, the vessels that hold them\, and the totems that pay tribute to them\, all keep her company\, inspire her\, and keep her calm in her temple-like studio in the woods outside of Chelsea\, Michigan.

The identity of the Baka of Cameroon is deeply tied to the disappearing forest. Marginalized by society\, they lack literacy and the language skills to defend their rights. Today\, Baka children must “chase two rabbits at once”: learn survival in the forest\, and receive formal schooling. The presenter recounts 10 years of firsthand experience working with Baka communities to bring both “rabbits” within children’s reach\, and touches on child development\, anthropology\, and social justice. Photos\, video\, and everyday artifacts will be used. Ann Arbor native Sarah Strader (nee Tucker) got her B.A. from Georgetown University in 2011. In 2011-12 she had a Fullbright fellowship to live and research in remote Baka villages. In 2012 Chasing Two Rabbits was created and as a 2019 Echoing Green fellow\, Sarah continues her work among the Baka to expand the reach of Two Rabbits.

Kaleidoscope\, UMMA’s third and final edition of this exhibition series\, examines the constantly changing practices of local Detroit artists\, women artists\, and artists of color as they actively embraced abstraction’s possibilities.

It exchanges Alumni Memorial Hall's previous focus on European and American painting for a broad mix of American\, European\, African\, and Asian art from across media\, sampling the Museum's remarkable\, disparate holdings. The installation is organized into thematic and formal vignettes that respond to the concepts and ideas resonating from an extraordinary large-scale photograph of a vacant cathedral by contemporary German artist Candida Höfer. Featuring works of art by numerous famous and not-so-famous artists\, many of them artists of color and women—including Charles Alston\, Christo\, Theaster Gates\, Jenny Holzer\, Roni Horn\, Do-Ho Suh\, Kara Walker\, and others\, Collection Ensemble reimagines the collection not as a fixed entity with one set of meanings to be unearthed\, but instead as an active\, creative\, sometimes startling source of material and ideas\, open for debate and interpretation.\n \nRead the exhibition press release here.\n \nJOIN US FOR THE GRAND OPENING AT UMMA AFTER HOURS Tuesday\, April 2 7–10 p.m.\n \nGallery talks\, live music\, and more!

The compositions explore the ancient Greek public space as a site for activated assembly and the heart of the artistic\, spiritual\, and political life of the city. UMMA’s installation is designed with an actual public square at its center\, complete with sound components featuring noted political and aesthetic discourse and surrounded by Washington’s soaring monumental collages. Works from four earlier series by the artist form the perimeter of the Museum’s largest special exhibition space. The artist describes his work as “abstract meditations on the grid and humanity.”\n\nLead support for this exhibition is provided by Erica Gervais Pappendick and Ted Pappendick\, Candy and Michael Barasch\, the University of Michigan Office of the Provost\, Michigan Medicine\, the Michigan Council for Arts and Cultural Affairs\, and the Institute for the Humanities.

Through a selection of mid-century to contemporary Inuit prints\, drawings\, and sculptures that portray seemingly ordinary reflections of daily life along with daydreaming meditations\, the exhibition bridges the mundane and the fantastic. Together\, these artworks present a distinct imagery and a visual poetry culled from the day-to-day reality of life in the far polar north. The perspectives range from soaring gazes at the horizon to glimpses of commonplace social interactions. These contemplations reveal intimate connections among the artists\, their communities\, and their locale—a specific place and time composed of icy regions and vast seas and tundras. Reflections: An Ordinary Day takes visitors on a lyrical journey of the myriad spaces and routines within an Arctic landscape.\n\nThis exhibition is made possible by the Power Family Program for Inuit Art\, established in 2018 through the generosity of Philip and Kathy Power.

Witt Artist in Residence Courtney McClellan\, Witness Lab frames witnessing as a social and artistic act. The gallery collapses courtroom\, theater\, classroom\, laboratory\, and artist studio in order to study the relationship between performance and law. In hosting mock trials\, court transcript readings\, and trial advocacy workshops\, the artist investigates who performs the role of witness in our society and how that understanding may map onto the narrower legal definition of the role. The installation will host legal simulations from participating groups\, including the Trial Advocacy Society and the Oral Argument Competition from the University of Michigan Law School\, as well as the undergraduate team of the Collegiate American Mock Trial Association. Taking the role of courtroom sketch artists\, or court reporters\, students from the U-M Stamps School of Art and Design will observe and document the courtroom performances through drawing\, text\, photography\, and video.\n\nWitness Lab is presented in partnership with the Roman J. Witt Artist in Residence Program of the Penny W. Stamps School of Art & Design\, with lead support provided by the University of Michigan Law School and Office of the Provost.

The link will be provided below.\n\nZoom: https://umich.zoom.us/j/2019377962\n\nTinnitus is the disorder of phantom sound perception\, while hyperacusis is abnormally increased loudness growth. Tinnitus and hyperacusis are both associated with hearing loss\, but hearing loss does not always occur with either condition\, implicating central neural activity as the basis for each disorder. Furthermore\, while tinnitus and hyperacusis can co-occur\, either can occur exclusively\, suggesting that separate pathological neural processes underlie each disorder.\n \nMounting evidence suggests that pathological neural activity in the cochlear nucleus\, the first central nucleus in the auditory pathway\, underpins hyperacusis and tinnitus. The cochlear nucleus is comprised of a ventral and dorsal subdivision\, which have separate principle output neurons with distinct targets. Previous studies have shown that dorsal cochlear nucleus fusiform cells show tinnitus-related increases in spontaneous firing with minimal alterations to sound-evoked responses. In contrast\, sound-evoked activity in ventral cochlear nucleus bushy cells is enhanced following noise-overexposure\, putatively underlying hyperacusis. While the fusiform-cell contribution to tinnitus has been well characterized with behavioral and electrophysiological studies\, the bushy-cell contribution to tinnitus or hyperacusis has been understudied.\n \nThis dissertation examines how pathological neural activity in cochlear nucleus circuitry relates to tinnitus and hyperacusis in the following three chapters.\n \nIn the first chapter\, I characterize the development of a high-throughput tinnitus behavioral model\, which combines and optimizes existing paradigms. With this model\, I show that animals administered salicylate\, a drug that reliably induces tinnitus at high doses in both humans and animals\, show behavioral evidence of tinnitus in two separate behavioral tests. Moreover\, in these same animals\, I show that dorsal-cochlear-nucleus fusiform cells exhibit frequency-specific increases in spontaneous firing activity\, consistent with noise-induced tinnitus in animals.\n \nIn the second chapter\, I show that following noise-overexposure\, ventral-cochlear-nucleus bushy cells demonstrate hyperacusis-like neural firing patterns\, but not tinnitus-specific increases in spontaneous activity. I contrast the bushy-cell neural activity with established fusiform-cell neural signatures of tinnitus\, to highlight the bushy-cell\, but not fusiform-cell contribution to hyperacusis. These analyses suggest that tinnitus and hyperacusis likely arise from distinct neural substrates.\n \nIn the third chapter\, I use computational modelling of the auditory periphery and bushy-cell circuitry to examine potential mechanisms that underlie hyperacusis-like neural firing patterns demonstrated in the second chapter. I then relate enhanced bushy-cell firing patterns to alterations in the auditory brainstem response\, a sound-evoked electrical potential generated primarily by bushy cells. Findings in this chapter suggest that there are multiple hyperacusis subtypes\, arising from separate mechanisms\, which could be diagnosed through fine-tuned alterations to the auditory brainstem response.\n\nChair: Dr. Susan Shore UID:74201-18568320@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/74201 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Basic Science,Biointerfaces,Biology,biomedical,biomedical engineering,Bioninterfaces,Biosciences,Biotechnology,bme LOCATION:Off Campus Location CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20200318T102224 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20200422T153000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20200422T163000 SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:CANCELED: MIPSE Seminar | Bringing Cosmic Shock Waves Down to Earth DESCRIPTION:Abstract:\nAs a fundamental process for converting kinetic to thermal energy\, collisionless shocks are ubiquitous throughout the heliosphere and astrophysical systems\, from Earth’s magnetosphere to supernova remnants. While these shocks have been studied for decades by spacecraft\, telescopes\, and numerical simulations\, there remain key open questions in shock physics\, such as: How do shocks accelerate particles to extremely high energies? or How are particles heated across a shock? Laboratory experiments thus provide a significant opportunity to both complement spacecraft and remote sensing observations with well-controlled and well-diagnosed datasets\, and to help benchmark numerical simulations that bridge laboratory and astrophysical systems.\n In this talk\, I will discuss recent results from experiments and simulations on the formation and evolution of collision-less shocks created through the interaction of a supersonic laser-driven magnetic piston and magnetized ambient plas-ma. Through advanced diagnostics a fast\, high-Mach-number shock is observed. Direct probing of particle velocity distributions reveals the coupling between the piston and ambient plasmas that is a key step in forming magnetized collisionless shocks. Particle-in-cell simulations further detail the shock formation process\, the role of collisionality\, and the dynamics of multi-ion-species ambient plasmas. I will also discuss how this experimental platform complements spacecraft missions and can allow novel investigations of shock heating and particle acceleration.\n\nAbout the Speaker: \nDr. Schaeffer is an Associate Research Scholar in the Department of Astro-physical Sciences at Princeton University. He received his BA in Physics at Cornell University and his PhD in Physics from UCLA\, and did his postdoctoral work at Princeton in high-energy-density laboratory astrophysics. Dr. Schaeffer has extensive experience in experiments involving mag-netized laser plasmas\, collisionless shocks\, and magnetic reconnection\, and a keen interest in bridging laboratory and astronomical observations. He also has expertise in a wide range of di-agnostics\, including Thomson scattering\, refractive imaging\, proton radiography\, and x-ray im-aging. He has authored dozens of papers and has presented at numerous conferences around the world.
