For those who purchased before 12/15\, you will have access to view the film until 12/31/20.\n\nSynopsis:\nAn intimate account of legendary U.S. Representative John Lewis’ life\, legacy and more than 60 years of extraordinary activism — from the bold teenager on the front lines of the Civil Rights movement to the legislative powerhouse he was throughout his career. After Lewis petitioned Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. to help integrate a segregated school in his hometown of Troy\, Alabama\, King sent “the boy from Troy” a round trip bus ticket to meet with him. From that meeting onward\, Lewis became one of King’s closest allies. He organized Freedom Rides that left him bloodied or jailed\, and stood at the front lines in the historic marches on Washington and Selma. He never lost the spirit of the “boy from Troy” and called on his fellow Americans to get into “good trouble” until his passing on July 17\, 2020.\n\n96 Minutes.

Wright Museum of African American History and the U-M Museum of Art\, with funding from The Andrew W. Mellon Foundation\, Ghanaian artist Ibrahim Mahama explores global exchange\, commerce and the troubling histories of colonialism and slavery in the Western world. \n\nMahama's artistic practice illustrates\, as he explains\, how art education\, art and cultural opportunities \"allow for people to find new ways to acquire knowledge\, not only of themselves\, but their histories and the places and spaces in which they find themselves.\"\n\nEnveloping the contours of a museum building or wall\, the blankets of jute fibers are meant to contrast with the monumentality of the institutional buildings and spaces they cover\, becoming remnants and traces that reference the hands of laborers\, the imprints of colonialism and the interference of Britain and the U.S. in Ghanaian history.\n\nThe project marks the first outdoor exhibition of Mahama's work in the United States. It is responsive to the present moment\, offering students and the broader community the opportunity to engage with the arts in a public space at a time when gatherings inside buildings and museums are limited.\n\nCurator's Statement:\n\nGhanaian artist Ibrahim Mahama’s installations are cumulative moments of reckoning\, mending\, and recycling. Things fall apart\, come undone. His constructions defy any notions of permanence and longevity. They are monuments to the in-between and the upending\, begging the question\, “What can we do?”\n\nMahama incorporates jute sacks—synonymous with the trade markets of Ghana where he lives and works—as a raw material. He works collaboratively with his community to complete the extensive sewing of the sacks required in preparation for his projects. For the U-M installations\, he incorporates materials from his previous seminal works over the last decade as a retrospective.\n\nThe markings\, stitching\, and signs of wear on the jute remind us of the many changing hands and endless labor behind international trade—the human toll of capitalism\, commodification\, and globalization. The fabric itself acts as metaphor for Ghana’s complicated history defined by Dutch colonialism and the Gold Coast slave trade\, British rule till 1957\, and a future de-railed by military coups post-independence.\n\nRather than grand gestures\, Mahama’s installations are humble acts of endurance. They are covert art take-overs\, subverting architecture and disrupting the pristine fascia of our institutional buildings. They hold us accountable for past trespasses. \n\nMahama is committed to offering his own country the same cultural opportunities and experiences available to those in the West. Most recently he designed and opened the Savannah Centre for Contemporary Arts in his hometown of Tamale Ghana\, contributing towards the expansion of his country’s contemporary art scene. An extension of his art practice\, the centre brings Mahama’s many visionary sketches to life\, creating classrooms in old airplanes\, a swimming pool for children’s play\, and public spaces for gatherings and the exchange of ideas.\n\nIn this pivotal year defined by Covid-19\, worldwide protests in support of Black Lives Matter\, climate change\, and our U.S. Presidential election in the balance\, Ibrahim Mahama’s work acknowledges failures and false promises\, but also the opportunities that can reveal themselves in times of crisis. \n\nPerhaps generations emerging from crisis can learn from the ghosts of the past and generate entirely new systems\, not motivated by profit or self-interest\, but by a deep commitment to the hard work ahead\, our willingness to do it\, and to the mutual space for dreams.\n\n–Amanda Krugliak\, arts curator\, Institute for the Humanities and curator of In Between the World and Dreams \n\nIn-Between the World and Dreams is a multi-venue project led by the U-M Institute for the Humanities Gallery\, in partnership with UMMA and the Charles H. Wright Museum of African American History\, Detroit. \n\nIn-Between the World and Dreams is made possible by a grant from The Andrew W. Mellon Foundation to further the Institute for the Humanities Gallery’s longtime mission in support of art as social practice.\n\nOct. 1-23\; large-scale public art installation\, U-M Museum of Art building facade\, 525 S.

With writers more in demand than ever in Hollywood\, this craft lecture will explore how literary writers can put themselves in a position to do both.\n\n\nJenny Zhang’s debut story collection\, *Sour Heart*\, centers on immigrants who have traded their endangered lives as artists in China and Taiwan for the constant struggle of life at the poverty line in 1990s New York City. Zhang is currently adapting *Sour Heart* into a feature-length film for A24.\n\nFrom the young woman coming to terms with her grandmother’s role in the Cultural Revolution to the daughter struggling to understand where her family ends and she begins\, to the girl discovering the power of her body to inspire and destroy\, *Sour Heart*'s seven stories illuminate the complex and messy inner lives of girls struggling to define themselves. \n\nJenny Zhang is also the author of the poetry collection\, *Dear Jenny\, We Are All Find*. Her second collection of poetry\, *My Baby First Birthday*\, is forthcoming from Tin House. She is the recipient of the Pen/Bingham Award for Debut Fiction and the LA Times Art Seidenbaum Award for First Fiction.\n\n\nThe Zell Visiting Writers Series brings outstanding writers to campus each semester. The Series is made possible through a generous gift from U-M alumna Helen Zell (BA ’64\, LLDHon ’13). For more information\, please visit the Zell Visiting Writers Program webpage: https://lsa.umich.edu/writers\n\nFor any questions about the event or to share accommodation needs\, please email asbates@umich.edu-- we are eager to help ensure that this event is inclusive to you.

In practice\, this can lead to severe vulnerabilities\, limited successful generalization to unseen data\, and hinder safe deployment. While practitioners are increasingly aware of these problems\, the common paradigm of reporting model performance continues to rely on the train-val-test i.i.d. splits.\n\nIn this talk\, I will introduce the Robustness Gym: an easy-to-use and extendable framework to concisely evaluate the robustness and diagnose model vulnerabilities using data slices\, i.e.\, user-defined splits or transformation of evaluation data\, on a wide range of NLP tasks in both classification and generation. Data slices are generic and can represent\, for example\, semantic sub-populations (gender\, age splits)\, augmentations (sub-word substitutions)\, adversarial attacks\, or statistical splits (e.g.\, by word frequency).\n\nOur framework is flexible and enables users to programmatically define and evaluate on data slices.\n\nThe Robustness Gym provides an overview of model performance on data slices and supports a wide variety of evaluation metrics\, including accuracy\, precision-recall\, and fairness metrics. Our framework can also evaluate model robustness under dataset manipulations\,including a range of adversarial attacks\, data-augmentations\, and different evaluation sets such as stress tests and contrast sets.\n\nRSVP here:https://salesforce.recsolu.com/external/events/AhRCRs2BDJ8W7gVJLaUtdw UID:78697-20107387@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/78697 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES: LOCATION: CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20200826T155721 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20201023T100000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20201023T110000 SUMMARY:Livestream / Virtual:U-M Structure Seminar: Christina Howard DESCRIPTION:Christina Howard\nGraduate Student\nCierpicki Lab\nUniversity of MIchigan UID:76030-19655358@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/76030 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Biosciences,Lecture,Structural Biology LOCATION:Off Campus Location CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20201107T063041 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20201023T110000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20201023T125500 SUMMARY:Careers / Jobs: AI @APL (Artificial Intelligence/Machine Learning/Data Science opportunities at the Johns Hopkins Applied Physics Lab) DESCRIPTION:Are you passionate about providing real impact to the country’s toughest national security problems?\n\nDo you love to push the boundaries of science and technology?\n\nAre you searching for engaging work with an employer that prioritizes continual innovation?\n\nIf so\, APL cordially invites you to learn more about how we are using Data Science\, Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning to address some of the Nation’smost critical challenges. \n\nCome meet our Hiring Managers and TechnicalStaff to learn more about our work within the Asymmetric Operations Sector and other areas of the Lab.

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!

They inspired my 30 year-long obsession with dynamin\, the mammalian homologue of *shibire.* Our subsequent studies of dynamin\, which began in the early 90s provide benefitted from the development of new technologies and from interdisciplinary collaboration. I’ll describe the twists and turns of our efforts to understand the mechanisms underlying dynamin-catalyzed fission\, the value of interdisciplinary collaborations\, and the importance of taking all data into account when formulating models. I’ll detail our current understanding of dynamin-catalyzed fission\, now supported by independent studies of others\, and briefly describe the many remaining unanswered questions\, keeping in mind (in the words of George Box) that\, *“All models are wrong\, but some are useful.\"* UID:77918-19941583@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/77918 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Biophysics,Free,Industry Session,Research,seminar,Virtual LOCATION:Off Campus Location CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20201107T063032 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20201023T120000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20201023T130000 SUMMARY:Careers / Jobs:Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (CFPB) Director’s FinancialAnalyst (DFA) Program information session 10/23 DESCRIPTION:The Consumer Financial Protection Bureau will be hosting information sessions about the DFA Program and the application process\, including a question-and-answer period\, conducted over WebEx.

The Indies of the Setting Sun: Asia and the Early Modern Spanish Geopolitical Imagination DESCRIPTION:Free event\; please register in advance at: http://myumi.ch/3qV0m\n\nRicardo Padrón will be discussing his new book\, *The Indies of the Setting Sun: How Early Modern Spain Mapped the Far East as the Transpacific West *(Chicago\, 2020). Against established historiography that emphasizes the ways in which America was “invented” as a continent separate from Asia relatively early in the history of European contact with the New World\, Padrón looks at the ways in which early modern Spaniards imagined the two continents as connected spaces. Crucial to this effort was the concept of the “Indies\,” which retained a powerful transpacific dimension throughout the sixteenth century\, in Spanish-speaking circles at least\, serving to figure East and Southeast Asia as the western frontier of Spain’s New World empire.\n \nPadrón is Associate Professor of Spanish at the University of Virginia. His earlier monograph\, *The Spacious Word: Cartography\, Literature\, and Empire in Early Modern Spain* (Chicago 2004) established his reputation as a scholar of early modern cartography\, broadly conceived\, and on the relationship between visual and verbal mapping. His work has been supported by grants from the American Council of Learned Societies and the National Endowment for the Humanities. He currently serves on the Board of Directors of the Renaissance Society of America.

They invoke a liminality that can be disruptive of\, and also a provocation to\, stability and order. Yet their outcomes are seldom predictable. It is precisely as threshold moments that they acquire their historical charge. Chaos and clamor\, a public outcry or protestation\, brings into focus the challenge of historical change: the often unexpected manner in which seemingly stable political and social orders can be suddenly made\, unmade\, and re-made. This theme invites us to offer new inflections on long-standing debates about the nature of history itself\, the relative weight of individual and collective actions\, of discrete events and moments\, and of longer-term historical trends. This semester we explore the disorganization that propels history and our approach towards it.\n\nPanelists: \n\nHoward Brick (Louis Evans Chair in US History\, University of Michigan)\nKatherine French (J.

Remarkably\, they have an intrinsic ability to self-organize into embryo-like or organ-like structures and will spontaneously form spatial patterns in a dish through interplay of biochemical signaling networks and cell mechanics. Understanding how they do this will both answer fundamental questions about developmental biology and aid countless therapeutic applications. The quantitative toolkit of physics is essential to unravel the mechanisms that underlie the complex spatiotemporal behavior of these cells as they self-organize. I will discuss how quantitative experiments with stem cells have led us to challenge existing models for cell differentiation and pitch a project to explore how physical forces influence cell fate decisions.\n UID:78664-20099532@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/78664 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Physics,Science LOCATION:Off Campus Location CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20200929T113905 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20201023T130000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20201023T140000 SUMMARY:Livestream / Virtual:Phondi Discussion Group DESCRIPTION:Phondi is a discussion and research group for students and faculty at U-M and nearby universities who have interests in phonetics and phonology.

It was the first legislation for women’s voting rights. Not until the passage of the Voting Rights Act in 1965 were voting rights of ALL women protected and enforced\, and intimidation tactics progressively eliminated.  The Get Out the Vote: Empowering the Women’s Vote poster campaign\, organized by AIGA in partnership with the League of Women Voters\, commemorates this milestone. A core group of invited women of design submitted the first 65 non-partisan posters\, to launch the initiative with their vision and voices. Through the posters\, these women joined forces to collectively contribute to dialogue in design and society. This moment in history is an incredible opportunity to catalyze women in design\, voting rights\, citizenship\, community\, and diversity. The collection aspires to not only support present day voter participation\, but to also serve as a backdrop for discourse and examination of the history of voting rights and women’s fight for equality.  The poster initiative continues at aiga.org/vote\, where AIGA members can contribute posters to motivate the American public to register and turn out to vote in the 2020 general election\, as well as local elections to come. Posters are available for free download online.\n\nThe Get Out the Vote: Empowering the Women’s Vote exhibition at Stamps Gallery includes a selection of the 65 posters chosen by a committee of Stamps faculty\, students\, and staff including Nicholas Dowgwillo\, Eloise Janssen\, Keesa V. Johnson\, Francis Nunoo-Quarcoo\, Endi Poskovic\, Destini Riley\, and Stamps Gallery. The exhibition includes posters by Audrey Bennett\, Johanna Björk\, Karen Cheng\, Emily Comfort\, Jenny El-Shamy\, Dinah Fried\, Karin Fong\, Anne M.

This workshop explores the roles open to Muslim characters in serialized comics and graphic novels. The medium of serialized comics\, commercialized in the twentieth century by mainstream comics publishers such as Marvel and DC\, and epitomized by their respective superhero universes\, has long been associated with a lack of racial and religious diversity\, the sexualization of female characters\, and a reader base that is stereotypically young\, male\, and white. Minority characters were often limited to tokenized villains or sidekicks designed for comic relief. But the contemporary young Muslim female superhero Ms. Marvel symbolizes a comics landscape that is changing. In the contexts of the Gulf Wars\, 9/11\, the Arab Spring\, the Palestinian conflict\, ongoing civil unrest in the Middle East\, and worldwide refugee migrant crises\, writers and artists from the Muslim and Arab worlds\, and others writing journalistically and historically about those locales\, are at the forefront of graphic medium literary production.\n \nGraphic novels and comics by and about Muslims and Arabs comprise a growing and distinctive narrative strain within comics studies—one that this event of comics and Muslim and Arab Studies artists and scholars seeks to investigate.\n \nChris Gavaler (On the Origin of Superheroes: From the Big Bang to Action Comics No. 1\, 2015) explores the Islamicist history of the 20th-century superhero.\n \nEsra Mirze Santesso (Disorientation: Muslim Identity in Contemporary Anglophone Literature\, 2013) discusses human rights discourse in narratives of war and dissidence in Iran and Kashmir.\n \nKarla Mallette (European Modernity and the Arab Mediterranean\, 2010) reports on resistance to Muslim and other minority identity politics from some comics readers.\n \nAliyah Khan (Far from Mecca: Globalizing the Muslim Caribbean\, 2020) examines orientalist representations of Muslim female superheroes.\n\nSena Duran is a third-year PhD student in the department of American Culture. Her research approaches representations of Muslims in U.S. visual media through Feminist and Genre Studies frameworks\, with specific attention to the use of monstrosity and eroticism in narratives of U.S. nationalism\, empire\, and racial subjugation. \n\n \nThe presenters bring postcolonial\, decolonial\, comics studies\, and historicizing methodologies to bear on understanding commonalities and differences among Islamic\, Muslim\, and Arab graphic narratives\, reading them as transnational works that\, as many of their subjects do\, cross borders and resist authoritarian states.\n \n \nCosponsored by: The Center for Middle Eastern and North African Studies\, The Digital Islamic Studies Curriculum\, Middle East Studies\, and Arab and Muslim American Studies UID:78302-20004861@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/78302 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:cmenas,Discussion,islamic studies,Lecture,Muslim,Virtual LOCATION:Off Campus Location CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20201020T160024 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20201023T140000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20201023T150000 SUMMARY:Livestream / Virtual:HistLing Discussion Group: Old Chinese messages from underground DESCRIPTION:HistLing is devoted to discussions of language change.

Intentionally minimal\, each image distills an interaction\, traumatic incident\, or power imbalance into an accessible visual narrative. Recognizable objects such as chairs\, roots\, ladders\, or spotlights set the stage for the story to unfold. Events are captured midstream\, suspended in time like a felt film still.\n\nThe exhibition is inspired\, in part\, by the courage\, testimony\, and experiences of women (like Christine Blasey Ford) who publicly report assault\, harassment\, or misconduct. The #MeToo movement gave voice to thousands of women to tell their personal stories\, but also exposed a hostile backlash meant to silence them. The title\, “Real and Imagined\,” is a deliberate contradiction\; if one is true\, the other must not be. In practice\, however\, both terms are used to reference a woman’s testimony and determine how it is publicly interpreted. Her account is accepted as truthful by many and simultaneously dismissed as imaginary by the court of public opinion: “her memory is wrong\,” “she imagined it.”\n\nThe works in “Real and Imagined: Fabric Works and Video Animations” make difficult conversations and relationships tangible by stripping them down to their essentials.\n\nWordless physical gestures highlight the psychological and emotional forces at play behind even the smallest of interactions.\n\nBiography\nHeidi Kumao has created award-winning experimental films\, video installations\, cinema machines\, electronic clothing\, and kinetic sculptures. She has exhibited her work in solo and group exhibitions nationally and internationally including shows at Art Science Museum Singapore\, Centre de Cultura Contemporània de Barcelona\, Fundació Joan Miró (Barcelona)\, and Museu da Imagem e do Som (São Paulo). She has received fellowships from the Creative Capital Foundation\, the Guggenheim Foundation\, and the New York Foundation for the Arts. She is a professor at the Stamps School of Art & Design at the University of Michigan.\n\nFall 2020 Hours and Policies\nBeginning September 15\, 2020\, Stamps Gallery will be open to University of Michigan faculty\, staff\, and students on Tuesdays and Fridays from 2-7 pm.\nAll visitors must have a valid M-Card to enter Stamps Gallery.

Stamps School of Art & Design.\n\nStamps Gallery is an incubator and lab for contemporary artists and designers to explore ideas and projects that catalyze positive social change. As the pandemic grips our nation it has exposed the social\, political\, and economic disparities that have disproportionately impacted Black\, Indigenous\, and People of Color. The world witnessed in horror and sadness the meaningless loss of African American lives with George Floyd\, Breonna Taylor\, Ahmaud Arbery\, among many others that we will never know. National and international outcries brought people together from multiple races\, genders\, and generations - on social media and in the streets - to publicly demand an end to police brutality\, structural racism\, and emphasizing that Black Lives Matter. What is the role of a university gallery in this time of crisis? How can we foster an inclusive platform for the stakeholders in our community to voice their ideas and foster a community based on equality\, belonging\, respect? We found inspiration in the thoughtful words of renowned civil rights leader and Congressman John Lewis (1940-2020) who wrote\, “My fellow Americans\, this is a special moment in our history. Just as people of all faiths and no faiths\, and all backgrounds\, creeds\, and colors banded together decades ago to fight for equality and justice in a peaceful\, orderly\, non-violent fashion\, we must do so again.” His powerful words are a reminder for all of us - present and future generations to stay hopeful\, proactive\, and resilient in our collective efforts to end racial discrimination and foster a true democracy. \n\nIn this spirit\, Stamps Gallery invited the undergraduate and graduate students at Penny W. Stamps School of Art & Design\, to design posters and make videos to respond and contemplate what each of us can do to build a stronger community\, one that is based on the values of racial equality\, justice and belonging. How can we acknowledge our own biases\, learn from each other\, and listen to the voices of those that have been silenced? We are at a pivotal moment in our history as the pandemic radically transforms everyday life. Through this exhibition Stamps Gallery asks the UM community to come together as artists and audiences and envision models for inclusion that are grounded in equality\, belonging and empathy.\n\nRespond/ Resist/ Rethink: A Stamps Student Poster & Video Exhibition includes work by Emily Albright\, Adriana Alcala\, Nathan Byrne\, David Forsee\, Eloise Jansenn\, Rey Jeong\, Sohyun Lim\, Anika Love\, Maggie McConnell\, Willian Minzer\, Judah Premble\, Casey Rheault\, Natalia Rocafuerte\, Jenna Scheen\, Ellie Schmidt\, Abigail Seguin\, LaKyla Thomas\, Elijah Thompson\, Benjamin Winans\, and Molly Wu.\n\nArtwork was selected through an open call by a committee of Stamps faculty\, students\, and staff including Nicholas Dowgwillo\, Eloise Janssen\, Keesa V.

The world witnessed in horror and sadness the meaningless loss of African American lives with George Floyd\, Breonna Taylor\, Ahmaud Arbery\, among many others that we will never know. National and international outcries brought people together from multiple races\, genders\, and generations - on social media and in the streets - to publicly demand an end to police brutality\, structural racism\, and emphasizing that Black Lives Matter. What is the role of a university gallery in this time of crisis? How can we foster an inclusive platform for the stakeholders in our community to voice their ideas and foster a community based on equality\, belonging\, respect? We found inspiration in the thoughtful words of renowned civil rights leader and Congressman John Lewis (1940-2020) who wrote\, “My fellow Americans\, this is a special moment in our history. Just as people of all faiths and no faiths\, and all backgrounds\, creeds\, and colors banded together decades ago to fight for equality and justice in a peaceful\, orderly\, non-violent fashion\, we must do so again.” His powerful words are a reminder for all of us - present and future generations to stay hopeful\, proactive\, and resilient in our collective efforts to end racial discrimination and foster a true democracy. \n\nIn this spirit\, Stamps Gallery invited the undergraduate and graduate students at Penny W. Stamps School of Art & Design\, to design posters and make videos to respond and contemplate what each of us can do to build a stronger community\, one that is based on the values of racial equality\, justice and belonging. How can we acknowledge our own biases\, learn from each other\, and listen to the voices of those that have been silenced? We are at a pivotal moment in our history as the pandemic radically transforms everyday life. Through this exhibition Stamps Gallery asks the UM community to come together as artists and audiences and envision models for inclusion that are grounded in equality\, belonging and empathy.\n\nRespond/ Resist/ Rethink: A Stamps Student Poster & Video Exhibition includes work by Emily Albright\, Adriana Alcala\, Nathan Byrne\, David Forsee\, Eloise Jansenn\, Rey Jeong\, Sohyun Lim\, Anika Love\, Maggie McConnell\, Willian Minzer\, Judah Premble\, Casey Rheault\, Natalia Rocafuerte\, Jenna Scheen\, Ellie Schmidt\, Abigail Seguin\, LaKyla Thomas\, Elijah Thompson\, Benjamin Winans\, and Molly Wu.\n\nArtwork was selected through an open call by a committee of Stamps faculty\, students\, and staff including Nicholas Dowgwillo\, Eloise Janssen\, Keesa V. Johnson\, Francis Nunoo-Quarcoo\, Endi Poskovic\, Destini Riley\, and Stamps Gallery.\n\n\nFall 2020 Hours and Policies\nBeginning September 15\, 2020\, Stamps Gallery will be open to University of Michigan faculty\, staff\, and students on Tuesdays and Fridays from 2-7 pm.\nAll visitors must have a valid M-Card to enter Stamps Gallery. We are unable to welcome the general public to this space at this time.

What issues would you work on\, what techniques would you deploy? That’s precisely the position the APS Office of Government Affairs found itself in nearly four years ago. The talk will describe the circumstances APS faced\, and how we responded\, focusing on particular APS campaigns that successfully pushed back against federal proposals for deep cuts to R&D funding and for a new tax on graduate students. The talk will then consider current issues and how APS is now using the grassroots-based approach it developed to advance legislation on STEM visa-reform and to pass legislation in the House of Representatives to address sexual harassment in STEM.\n\nBio:\nFrancis Slakey is the Chief External Affairs Officer of the American Physical Society\, overseeing the governmental\, international\, and industrial activities of APS. \n\nDr. Slakey received his Ph.D. in Physics in 1992 from the University of Illinois\, Urbana-Champaign and was the Upjohn Lecturer on Science and Public Policy at Georgetown University where he founded the Program on Science in the Public Interest. He served in advisory positions for a diverse set of organizations including the National Geographic\, the Council on Foreign Relations\, the International Panel on Solutions to Sustainability\, the Creative Coalition\, and the Center for Strategic and International Studies. He is a Fellow of the American Physical Society\, a Fellow of the American Association for the Advancement of Science\, a MacArthur Scholar\, and a Lemelson Research Associate of the Smithsonian Institution. \n\nDr. Slakey became the 28th American to summit Mt. Everest in an unguided environmental expedition that was the subject of the movie \"Beyond the Summit\"\, described in his international best-selling adventure memoir “To The Last Breath.” He is the first person in history to both summit the highest mountain on every continent and surf every ocean. In recognition of his adventures\, as part of the 2002 Olympic Games\, he carried the Olympic torch from the steps of the U.S. Capitol.

Determining the petrophysical changes that occur to subducted crust along the downgoing slab–asthenospheric mantle interface is critical to defining mass and energy transport between the hydrosphere and deep interior\, and for constraining long-term geochemical cycles. Here\, I show via petrological modelling how phase assemblages\, the P–T conditions of key devolatilization reactions\, and the effect of densification with depth vary for typical MORB along newly defined “hotter” subduction zone geotherms for cold\, warm\, and average environments. The depth and extent of devolatilization of typical MORB is strongly dependent on the geotherm under which the oceanic crust subducts. At the onset of subduction along a warm geotherm\, metabasites contain ~3 wt% of H2O\, and release ~45% of the bulk-rock H2O in a fluid pulse at ~20 km. Below these depths\, metabasites will dehydrate gradually liberating 45% of the bulk-rock H2O and complete dehydration will be achieved at ~70 km. Oceanic crust subducting along an average geotherm will contain ~3.5 wt% of H2O at the onset of subduction\, and will release ~40% of the bulk-rock H2O in two fluid pluses occurring at ~30 and 50 km. Below these depths\, the metabasite will dehydrate gradually liberating ~50% of the bulk-rock H2O and complete dehydration will be achieved at ~80 km. By contrast\, at the onset of cold subduction\, metabasites will typically be H2O undersaturated\, and will dehydrate gradually at different depths\, subducting ~0.6 wt% of H2O to sub-arc depths. Metabasites subducting along a warm and average geotherm will liberate most of the fluids at shallower depths\, suggesting that these lithologies might preferentially exhume\, yet MORB subducting along cold geotherms will not dehydrate until greater depths\, inhibiting buoyancy-driven exhumation. While we show that metabasites formed along warmer geotherms are denser than metabasites from colder geotherms\, buoyancy-driven exhumation provoked by fluids play a most important role than the overall metabasite bulk-rock density. We also put forward that slab melting occurs only along the hottest subduction geotherms. In these subduction zones\, whereas melting is predicted to occur at subarc depths—allowing adakitic magmatism. We posit that in the hottest subduction zones\, aqueous fluids and hydrous melts enhance chemical recycling.

This subject gap advantage (SGA) is a fact that grounded\, conjecturally\, Keenan & Comrie (1977)’s Accessibility Hierarchy and one which has been extensively investigated (e.g.\, Kwon\, Lee\, Gordon\, Kluender & Polinsky\, 2010). In recent years a new generation of studies has challenged or re-characterized the SGA by incorporating data from language users whose grammars provide better resources for disentangling competing theories\, and who are not typically included in psycholinguistic experiments. This has certainly resulted in a more nuanced understanding of the SGA and relative clause processing. But more than that\, it has also mapped out new topics\, such as the processing of verb-initial clauses or ergative-absolutive case systems. In the first part of the talk\, I will tour this new state-of-the-art to highlight some of these emerging findings and research agendas. In the second part of the talk\, I will draw on work from my own group on Chamorro and Zapotec to support the idea that the SGA is driven fundamentally by timing\, that is\, the order in which syntactic hypotheses are projected from partial evidence.

Ghosts are an embodiment of failed revolutions and unrealized futures\, which need to be used as a starting point for new conversations within this century and beyond. Every life form is a gift.” The conversation discusses the critical role art and artists can play in times of crisis\, and the significance of public art at a time when we are changing the picture as to who we honor and what we value. \n\nIn-Between the World and Dreams is made possible by a grant from the Andrew W. Mellon Foundation\, supporting the Institute for the Humanities commitment to High Stakes Art. In partnership with Institute for the Humanities\, Penny W. Stamps School of Art & Design\, Charles Wright Museum of African American History\, and UMMA. This event is part of the Democracy & Debate theme semester.\n\nNotice of uncensored content: In accordance with the University of Michigan’s Standard Practice Guidelines on “Freedom of Speech and Artistic Expression\,” the Penny Stamps Speaker Series does not censor our speakers or their content.

For those who purchased before 12/15\, you will have access to view the film until 12/31/20.\n\nSynopsis:\nAn intimate account of legendary U.S. Representative John Lewis’ life\, legacy and more than 60 years of extraordinary activism — from the bold teenager on the front lines of the Civil Rights movement to the legislative powerhouse he was throughout his career. After Lewis petitioned Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. to help integrate a segregated school in his hometown of Troy\, Alabama\, King sent “the boy from Troy” a round trip bus ticket to meet with him. From that meeting onward\, Lewis became one of King’s closest allies. He organized Freedom Rides that left him bloodied or jailed\, and stood at the front lines in the historic marches on Washington and Selma. He never lost the spirit of the “boy from Troy” and called on his fellow Americans to get into “good trouble” until his passing on July 17\, 2020.\n\n96 Minutes.

Wright Museum of African American History and the U-M Museum of Art\, with funding from The Andrew W. Mellon Foundation\, Ghanaian artist Ibrahim Mahama explores global exchange\, commerce and the troubling histories of colonialism and slavery in the Western world. \n\nMahama's artistic practice illustrates\, as he explains\, how art education\, art and cultural opportunities \"allow for people to find new ways to acquire knowledge\, not only of themselves\, but their histories and the places and spaces in which they find themselves.\"\n\nEnveloping the contours of a museum building or wall\, the blankets of jute fibers are meant to contrast with the monumentality of the institutional buildings and spaces they cover\, becoming remnants and traces that reference the hands of laborers\, the imprints of colonialism and the interference of Britain and the U.S. in Ghanaian history.\n\nThe project marks the first outdoor exhibition of Mahama's work in the United States. It is responsive to the present moment\, offering students and the broader community the opportunity to engage with the arts in a public space at a time when gatherings inside buildings and museums are limited.\n\nCurator's Statement:\n\nGhanaian artist Ibrahim Mahama’s installations are cumulative moments of reckoning\, mending\, and recycling. Things fall apart\, come undone. His constructions defy any notions of permanence and longevity. They are monuments to the in-between and the upending\, begging the question\, “What can we do?”\n\nMahama incorporates jute sacks—synonymous with the trade markets of Ghana where he lives and works—as a raw material. He works collaboratively with his community to complete the extensive sewing of the sacks required in preparation for his projects. For the U-M installations\, he incorporates materials from his previous seminal works over the last decade as a retrospective.\n\nThe markings\, stitching\, and signs of wear on the jute remind us of the many changing hands and endless labor behind international trade—the human toll of capitalism\, commodification\, and globalization. The fabric itself acts as metaphor for Ghana’s complicated history defined by Dutch colonialism and the Gold Coast slave trade\, British rule till 1957\, and a future de-railed by military coups post-independence.\n\nRather than grand gestures\, Mahama’s installations are humble acts of endurance. They are covert art take-overs\, subverting architecture and disrupting the pristine fascia of our institutional buildings. They hold us accountable for past trespasses. \n\nMahama is committed to offering his own country the same cultural opportunities and experiences available to those in the West. Most recently he designed and opened the Savannah Centre for Contemporary Arts in his hometown of Tamale Ghana\, contributing towards the expansion of his country’s contemporary art scene. An extension of his art practice\, the centre brings Mahama’s many visionary sketches to life\, creating classrooms in old airplanes\, a swimming pool for children’s play\, and public spaces for gatherings and the exchange of ideas.\n\nIn this pivotal year defined by Covid-19\, worldwide protests in support of Black Lives Matter\, climate change\, and our U.S. Presidential election in the balance\, Ibrahim Mahama’s work acknowledges failures and false promises\, but also the opportunities that can reveal themselves in times of crisis. \n\nPerhaps generations emerging from crisis can learn from the ghosts of the past and generate entirely new systems\, not motivated by profit or self-interest\, but by a deep commitment to the hard work ahead\, our willingness to do it\, and to the mutual space for dreams.\n\n–Amanda Krugliak\, arts curator\, Institute for the Humanities and curator of In Between the World and Dreams \n\nIn-Between the World and Dreams is a multi-venue project led by the U-M Institute for the Humanities Gallery\, in partnership with UMMA and the Charles H.

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 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!

Wright Museum of African American History and the U-M Museum of Art\, with funding from The Andrew W. Mellon Foundation\, Ghanaian artist Ibrahim Mahama explores global exchange\, commerce and the troubling histories of colonialism and slavery in the Western world. \n\nMahama's artistic practice illustrates\, as he explains\, how art education\, art and cultural opportunities \"allow for people to find new ways to acquire knowledge\, not only of themselves\, but their histories and the places and spaces in which they find themselves.\"\n\nEnveloping the contours of a museum building or wall\, the blankets of jute fibers are meant to contrast with the monumentality of the institutional buildings and spaces they cover\, becoming remnants and traces that reference the hands of laborers\, the imprints of colonialism and the interference of Britain and the U.S. in Ghanaian history.\n\nThe project marks the first outdoor exhibition of Mahama's work in the United States. It is responsive to the present moment\, offering students and the broader community the opportunity to engage with the arts in a public space at a time when gatherings inside buildings and museums are limited.\n\nCurator's Statement:\n\nGhanaian artist Ibrahim Mahama’s installations are cumulative moments of reckoning\, mending\, and recycling. Things fall apart\, come undone. His constructions defy any notions of permanence and longevity. They are monuments to the in-between and the upending\, begging the question\, “What can we do?”\n\nMahama incorporates jute sacks—synonymous with the trade markets of Ghana where he lives and works—as a raw material. He works collaboratively with his community to complete the extensive sewing of the sacks required in preparation for his projects. For the U-M installations\, he incorporates materials from his previous seminal works over the last decade as a retrospective.\n\nThe markings\, stitching\, and signs of wear on the jute remind us of the many changing hands and endless labor behind international trade—the human toll of capitalism\, commodification\, and globalization. The fabric itself acts as metaphor for Ghana’s complicated history defined by Dutch colonialism and the Gold Coast slave trade\, British rule till 1957\, and a future de-railed by military coups post-independence.\n\nRather than grand gestures\, Mahama’s installations are humble acts of endurance. They are covert art take-overs\, subverting architecture and disrupting the pristine fascia of our institutional buildings. They hold us accountable for past trespasses. \n\nMahama is committed to offering his own country the same cultural opportunities and experiences available to those in the West. Most recently he designed and opened the Savannah Centre for Contemporary Arts in his hometown of Tamale Ghana\, contributing towards the expansion of his country’s contemporary art scene. An extension of his art practice\, the centre brings Mahama’s many visionary sketches to life\, creating classrooms in old airplanes\, a swimming pool for children’s play\, and public spaces for gatherings and the exchange of ideas.\n\nIn this pivotal year defined by Covid-19\, worldwide protests in support of Black Lives Matter\, climate change\, and our U.S. Presidential election in the balance\, Ibrahim Mahama’s work acknowledges failures and false promises\, but also the opportunities that can reveal themselves in times of crisis. \n\nPerhaps generations emerging from crisis can learn from the ghosts of the past and generate entirely new systems\, not motivated by profit or self-interest\, but by a deep commitment to the hard work ahead\, our willingness to do it\, and to the mutual space for dreams.\n\n–Amanda Krugliak\, arts curator\, Institute for the Humanities and curator of In Between the World and Dreams \n\nIn-Between the World and Dreams is a multi-venue project led by the U-M Institute for the Humanities Gallery\, in partnership with UMMA and the Charles H. Wright Museum of African American History\, Detroit. \n\nIn-Between the World and Dreams is made possible by a grant from The Andrew W.

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. Their strategies dramatically transformed the practice of abstraction in a shifting American political landscape.\n\nSupport for this exhibition is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost\, the Richard and Rosann Noel Endowment Fund\, the Herbert W. and Susan L. Johe Endowment\, the Susan and Richard Gutow Endowed Fund\, and the Robert and Janet Miller Fund UID:68986-17207603@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/68986 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Art,Detroit,Exhibition,Museum,Politics,UMMA LOCATION:Museum of Art - A.

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!

Mitochondria are composed of proteins encoded by both the nuclear and mitochondrial genomes and the coordinated expression of both genomes is essential for energy production. Impaired energy production leads to mitochondrial dysfunction that causes or contributes significantly to a variety of diseases including metabolic disorders and cardiovascular diseases. Mitochondrial dysfunction is caused by mutations in nuclear or mitochondrial genes that encode proteins or regulatory RNAs essential for mitochondrial biogenesis. How uncoordinated gene expression causes mitochondrial dysfunction and compromised energy production in heart and metabolic diseases is poorly understood\, making it difficult to develop effective treatments. To unravel how mitochondrial function fails and to identify therapeutic targets it is necessary (i) to understand how gene expression is regulated between mitochondria and the nucleus and (ii) how this regulation is disrupted in disease. We have created new and unique models of metabolic and cardiovascular diseases caused by mutations or loss of nuclear encoded RNA-binding proteins (RBPs) that regulate mitochondrial RNA metabolism and protein synthesis. These new models have identified that energy dysfunction can differentially affect specific organs such as the heart or liver\, or multiple organs leading to heart failure or metabolic diseases that can be devastating\, such as mitochondrial diseases\, or may be as common as insulin resistance and obesity. I will discuss the mechanisms behind these diverse pathologies caused by impaired gene expression and energy dysfunction in heart and metabolic disease.\n\nKEYWORDS: mitochondria\, RNA\, ribosomes\, translation UID:75809-19608025@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/75809 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Basic Science,Biointerfaces,Biology,Biomedical Engineering,Biosciences,Chemistry,Drug Discovery,Lecture,Life Science,Natural Sciences,Pharmacy,Postdoctoral Research Fellows,Public Health,Rackham,Research,Science,Structural Biology LOCATION:Off Campus Location CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20200917T181551 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20201026T090000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20201026T120000 SUMMARY:Livestream / Virtual:Sweetland Write-Together DESCRIPTION:Write-Together sessions provide structure\, accountability\, and support for graduate writers working on writing at any stage\, from papers to theses to journal articles to dissertations and more.

This year\, the race for the White House has been completely redefined by a pandemic that has upended every aspect of daily life\, and a widespread social movement that has forced a national conversation on race and justice. \n\nAs a result\, candidates as well as the news media have had to adapt to an ever- evolving landscape. As the campaign enters its final week\, we’ll explore how the extraordinary events of 2020 have shaped the presidential campaign thus far and identify what to watch for on Election Night.\n\nOur speaker\, Robert Yoon is a visiting professor of journalism and the associate director of the Knight-Wallace Fellowship for Journalists at the University of Michigan\, as well as a political analyst for Inside Elections. His undergraduate courses on political communications explore campaign messaging strategies and the role of the news media in presidential campaigns. \n\nAs a journalist\, he is covering his sixth presidential campaign cycle and has helped prepare moderators from multiple news organizations for more than 30 presidential debates. As CNN’s Director of Political Research for more than 17 years\, his contributions to the network’s election coverage have earned him two Emmy Awards\, five total Emmy nominations\, a Peabody Award\, and a National Headliner Award. He received an additional National Headliner Award for his work on CNN’s investigation of the 9/11 terror plot. In 2016\, he was named by Mediaite as one of the most influential people in the news media.\n\nPre-registration is required via the OLLI website or phone.

Rates and trends in absolute mobility varied dramatically across countries during this period: the US and Canada saw upward mobility rates near 50% for recent cohorts\, while countries like Norway and Finland saw sustained rates above 70%. Decomposition analysis suggests that differences in the marginal income distributions\, especially the amount of cross-cohort income inequality\, were the primary driver of differing mobility rates across countries. We also demonstrate that absolute mobility rates can be accurately estimated without linked parent-child data.\n\n\nBIO:\n\nRobert Manduca is an Assistant Professor in the Department of Sociology at Michigan.

Children’s intuitions about trade.\" \n\nPlease visit the Seminar Series website for Zoom link and access details.\n\nABSTRACT\nTrade is a cornerstone of economic exchange and can take many different forms. In simple trades\, one item is often exchanged for another\; but in more complex trades\, agents can trade different numbers of items\, reflecting the differing value of the items being traded. Though young children regularly engage in simple trades\, we examine whether they understand a key element involved in more complex trades—the idea that people may subjectively value the same item differently and accept trades that numerically disadvantage themselves in the service of acquiring more of a preferred item. To do so\, we ran three studies with 5- to 10-year-old children (N = 314) in which they were asked to predict whether a third party would accept or reject different types of trades. Results revealed that children across this age range predict that a third party will accept a numerically disadvantageous trade when they prefer one resource over another\, but not when they have an equal preference for both resources. Importantly\, their predictions were not merely a reflection of what they thought was fair\, but rather what was in the best interest of the third party—they thought a third party would be more likely to accept an “unfair” trade that benefitted himself rather than someone else. We discuss our findings in terms of what they reveal about children’s early economic intuitions.

From Sudan to America: Reflections on Immigration\, Diaspora\, and Revolution DESCRIPTION:The 2020 CMENAS Colloquium Series theme is \"The Arab Spring: 10 Years Later.\"\n(Please register at http://myumi.ch/jxDBz\; a Zoom link will be emailed to you the day of the event.)\n\nAbout the Presentation:\nRising anti-immigration sentiments in the United States and elsewhere are built on nativist conceptions entirely innocent of any knowledge of why immigrants are here in the first place. Nativists fail to recognize global connections and how immigrants struggle to make both host and original countries better places. This talk highlights how both national and transnational processes are connected and how these processes shape immigrants’ and trans-local actors’ fight for and debates over equal citizenship rights\, inclusion\, and belonging. Reflecting on my own work on Sudanese refugees\, diaspora\, and the current revolution in the Sudan\, I explore how the quest for recognition and equal citizenship rights has influenced Sudanese activists’ representation and imagination of both national and transnational citizenship.\n \nAbout the Speaker:\nAmal Hassan Fadlalla is a Professor of Anthropology\, Women’s and Gender Studies\, and Afroamerican and African studies at the University of Michigan Her research interests and teaching focus on global issues and perspectives related to gender\, health\, reproduction\, diaspora\, transnationalism\, population\, development\, and human rights and humanitarianism. She holds B.sc and Masters degrees from the University of Khartoum\, Sudan (1986\, 1992) and a Ph. D from Northwestern University (2000).\n\n*If there is anything we can do to make this event accessible to you\, please contact us.

Consequently\, they carry immense power in shaping markets and allocating opportunity to the participants. In this talk\, I will discuss how the machine learning algorithms underlying these systems can produce unfair ranking policies for both exogenous and endogenous reasons. Exogenous reasons often manifest themselves as biases in the training data\, which then get reflected in the learned ranking policy and lead to rich-get-richer dynamics. But even when trained with unbiased data\, reasons endogenous to the algorithms can lead to unfair or undesirable allocation of opportunity. To overcome these challenges\, I will present new machine learning algorithms that directly address both endogenous and exogenous unfairness.

Multiple experimental efforts are currently racing to try to discover this particle in the laboratory. However\, in this talk I will show that astrophysical observations are also a promising path towards detecting the axion and related axion-like-particles\, which arise in some String Theory compactifications. I will focus in particular on neutron stars as laboratories for searching for axions\, leveraging the strong magnetic fields in these systems. I will discuss two recent neutron star axion searches in my group\, one in the radio band and one in the X-ray band\, that probe new regions of axion parameter space and perhaps even uncover hints of new physics.\n UID:78679-20101506@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/78679 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Physics,Science LOCATION:Off Campus Location CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20201020T211952 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20201026T160000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20201026T164500 SUMMARY:Careers / Jobs:IOE Research Info Session\, Hosted by TBP DESCRIPTION:Come learn about research opportunities within Industrial and Operations Engineering!

Permeability as Pathology: Leaky Gut and Other-Threatened Borders DESCRIPTION:The Science\, Technology\, Medicine and Society (STeMS) Speaker Series features scholars doing research across the range of STS subject matter. This term:\n\nAre we humans cooperative or warlike\, rational or delusional\, fixed or flexible? These questions have philosophical bite and political stakes. Indeed\, they always have. But recent work in a range of disciplines asks us to go deeper. What if “we humans” are more fiction than fact? If we can’t assume the stability of the human across time and place\, what happens to debates about human nature? Humanistic approaches\, including actor-network theory\, posthuman criticism\, and multispecies ethnographies\, challenge the idea of an autonomous human nature\, while scientific studies of organ development\, neuroendocrinology\, and the microbiome are revealing how much nature there is inside of us. We explore these questions through a braided history of the human and environmental sciences.

As such policies regarding (i) the flow of patients\, (ii) allocation of exam rooms\, or (iii) the assignment of medical assistants to physicians are set at the beginning of the day\, week or month\, and remain unchanged across that duration. While the static nature of these schemes are meant to support stability and reduced complexity in the operations\, this fixed mindset can hinder the ability to drive quality improvement. This presentation will review applications of simulation modeling in support of assessing the value that can be obtained from integrating flexibility into operational policies. We will review dynamic room allocation policies and staffing policies as applied to a crowded cardiovascular clinic. Additionally\, we will explore similar concepts in multiple orthopedic clinics. Finally\, we will present how these concepts can be similarly examined with a continuous-time Markov model.\n\nJackie Griffin is an Associate Professor in the Mechanical and Industrial Engineering Department at Northeastern University.

We will teach what exactly food insecurity is\, what it looks like at the University of Michigan\, and how we can address it through advocacy. Attendees will leave this event with a crafted letter to send to your state representatives targeting House Resolution 0251. This resolution urges the United States Department of Agriculture to grant a federal waiver to temporarily suspend the rules that make college students ineligible for SNAP (food stamps) benefits. This is an event open to all UM community members. Students can register for this event with the link below.

Lured onto a small ship with the promise of food and pay\, they are instead met with blindfolds\, ropes\, and knives. Over four long months\, their kidnappers drive them overland into the Cotton Kingdom to be sold as slaves. Determined to resist\, the boys form a tight brotherhood as they struggle to free themselves and find their way home.\n\nTheir ordeal—an odyssey that takes them from the Philadelphia waterfront to the marshes of Mississippi and then onward still—shines a glaring spotlight on the Reverse Underground Railroad\, a black market network of human traffickers and slave traders who stole away thousands of legally free African Americans from their families in order to fuel slavery’s rapid expansion in the decades before the Civil War. \n\nDr. Richard Bell is a Professor of History at the University of Maryland. He is the author of the new book *Stolen: Five Free Boys Kidnapped into Slavery and their Astonishing Odyssey Home* which is shortlisted for the George Washington Prize and the Harriet Tubman Prize. He has won more than a dozen teaching awards\, including the University System of Maryland Board of Regents Faculty Award for Excellence in Teaching\, the highest honor for teaching faculty in the Maryland state system. Rick has held major research fellowships at Yale\, Cambridge\, and the Library of Congress and is the recipient of the National Endowment of the Humanities Public Scholar award. He serves as a Trustee of the Maryland Historical Society\, as an elected member of the Colonial Society of Massachusetts\, and as a fellow of the Royal Historical Society.\n\nTo order a signed copy of STOLEN directly from the author\, send an email to rjbell(at)umd.edu with your shipping address.

After Lewis petitioned Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. to help integrate a segregated school in his hometown of Troy\, Alabama\, King sent “the boy from Troy” a round trip bus ticket to meet with him. From that meeting onward\, Lewis became one of King’s closest allies. He organized Freedom Rides that left him bloodied or jailed\, and stood at the front lines in the historic marches on Washington and Selma. He never lost the spirit of the “boy from Troy” and called on his fellow Americans to get into “good trouble” until his passing on July 17\, 2020.\n\n96 Minutes.

Shichtman studies the ways by which medieval symbols have been embraced by political movements to represent uncorrupted purity. What’s different about recent evocations of knightly signage is their visibility on the Internet where they have become weaponized to attract members and demean enemies. \n\nThe goal of the lecture is first to discuss symbols in the medieval period and then discuss how such symbols have resurfaced in the Nazi era and in the contemporary environment to serve the political and propaganda goals of various movements.\n\nThis lecture is part of the OLLI Dialog series which promotes conversation and questions throughout presentations.\n\nDr. Martin B. Shichtman is Director of the Center for Jewish Studies and Professor of English Language and Literature at Eastern Michigan University. He has been a fellow at the United States Holocaust Memorial Museum and at Brandeis University’s Schusterman Institute for Israel Studies. Dr. Shichtman has co-authored two books\, co-edited two collections\, and published more than 40 scholarly articles. He has presented more than 100 papers at international\, national\, and regional conferences. He is the recipient of EMU’s Distinguished Faculty Award for Teaching and the Eastern Michigan University Alumni Association Award for Teaching Excellence.\n\nPre-registration is required via the OLLI website or phone.

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!

Social behavior is also deeply intertwined with the evolution of cognition and mental health\, therefore its understanding has numerous applied utilities that span adult work performance\, (un)healthy socio-cognitive aging\, children's cognitive development\, and even human-machine interactions. I will introduce the empirical and conceptual foundations\, mathematical bases and usage of neurocomputational models of social coordination that builds up from a simple model of oscillatory coupling: the Haken-Kelso-Bunz (HKB) model. The model was built from the broadly interdisciplinary intellectual foundations of a legion of dynamical system scientists at Florida Atlantic University's Center for Complex Systems and Brain Sciences\, whose work have provided breakthrough for nonlinear coupling\, symmetry breaking\, discreteness\, labile and persistent adaptation and biases. I will discuss merits\, liabilities and complementarities between such a paradigm that puts genuine dynamics first\, and defers a realistic functional outcome\, versus other approaches that start at the top from life-like socio-cognitive architectures. I hope that a conclusion will steer the assembly into a discussion on its hidden premise: that similar dynamical phenomenology at multiple neural\, behavioral and social scales speaks to universal laws of complexity across those scales whose discovery is ongoing.

After Lewis petitioned Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. to help integrate a segregated school in his hometown of Troy\, Alabama\, King sent “the boy from Troy” a round trip bus ticket to meet with him. From that meeting onward\, Lewis became one of King’s closest allies. He organized Freedom Rides that left him bloodied or jailed\, and stood at the front lines in the historic marches on Washington and Selma. He never lost the spirit of the “boy from Troy” and called on his fellow Americans to get into “good trouble” until his passing on July 17\, 2020.\n\n96 Minutes.

It was the first legislation for women’s voting rights. Not until the passage of the Voting Rights Act in 1965 were voting rights of ALL women protected and enforced\, and intimidation tactics progressively eliminated.  The Get Out the Vote: Empowering the Women’s Vote poster campaign\, organized by AIGA in partnership with the League of Women Voters\, commemorates this milestone. A core group of invited women of design submitted the first 65 non-partisan posters\, to launch the initiative with their vision and voices. Through the posters\, these women joined forces to collectively contribute to dialogue in design and society. This moment in history is an incredible opportunity to catalyze women in design\, voting rights\, citizenship\, community\, and diversity. The collection aspires to not only support present day voter participation\, but to also serve as a backdrop for discourse and examination of the history of voting rights and women’s fight for equality.  The poster initiative continues at aiga.org/vote\, where AIGA members can contribute posters to motivate the American public to register and turn out to vote in the 2020 general election\, as well as local elections to come. Posters are available for free download online.\n\nThe Get Out the Vote: Empowering the Women’s Vote exhibition at Stamps Gallery includes a selection of the 65 posters chosen by a committee of Stamps faculty\, students\, and staff including Nicholas Dowgwillo\, Eloise Janssen\, Keesa V. Johnson\, Francis Nunoo-Quarcoo\, Endi Poskovic\, Destini Riley\, and Stamps Gallery. The exhibition includes posters by Audrey Bennett\, Johanna Björk\, Karen Cheng\, Emily Comfort\, Jenny El-Shamy\, Dinah Fried\, Karin Fong\, Anne M.

Intentionally minimal\, each image distills an interaction\, traumatic incident\, or power imbalance into an accessible visual narrative. Recognizable objects such as chairs\, roots\, ladders\, or spotlights set the stage for the story to unfold. Events are captured midstream\, suspended in time like a felt film still.\n\nThe exhibition is inspired\, in part\, by the courage\, testimony\, and experiences of women (like Christine Blasey Ford) who publicly report assault\, harassment\, or misconduct. The #MeToo movement gave voice to thousands of women to tell their personal stories\, but also exposed a hostile backlash meant to silence them. The title\, “Real and Imagined\,” is a deliberate contradiction\; if one is true\, the other must not be. In practice\, however\, both terms are used to reference a woman’s testimony and determine how it is publicly interpreted. Her account is accepted as truthful by many and simultaneously dismissed as imaginary by the court of public opinion: “her memory is wrong\,” “she imagined it.”\n\nThe works in “Real and Imagined: Fabric Works and Video Animations” make difficult conversations and relationships tangible by stripping them down to their essentials.\n\nWordless physical gestures highlight the psychological and emotional forces at play behind even the smallest of interactions.\n\nBiography\nHeidi Kumao has created award-winning experimental films\, video installations\, cinema machines\, electronic clothing\, and kinetic sculptures. She has exhibited her work in solo and group exhibitions nationally and internationally including shows at Art Science Museum Singapore\, Centre de Cultura Contemporània de Barcelona\, Fundació Joan Miró (Barcelona)\, and Museu da Imagem e do Som (São Paulo). She has received fellowships from the Creative Capital Foundation\, the Guggenheim Foundation\, and the New York Foundation for the Arts. She is a professor at the Stamps School of Art & Design at the University of Michigan.\n\nFall 2020 Hours and Policies\nBeginning September 15\, 2020\, Stamps Gallery will be open to University of Michigan faculty\, staff\, and students on Tuesdays and Fridays from 2-7 pm.\nAll visitors must have a valid M-Card to enter Stamps Gallery.

Stamps School of Art & Design.\n\nStamps Gallery is an incubator and lab for contemporary artists and designers to explore ideas and projects that catalyze positive social change. As the pandemic grips our nation it has exposed the social\, political\, and economic disparities that have disproportionately impacted Black\, Indigenous\, and People of Color. The world witnessed in horror and sadness the meaningless loss of African American lives with George Floyd\, Breonna Taylor\, Ahmaud Arbery\, among many others that we will never know. National and international outcries brought people together from multiple races\, genders\, and generations - on social media and in the streets - to publicly demand an end to police brutality\, structural racism\, and emphasizing that Black Lives Matter. What is the role of a university gallery in this time of crisis? How can we foster an inclusive platform for the stakeholders in our community to voice their ideas and foster a community based on equality\, belonging\, respect? We found inspiration in the thoughtful words of renowned civil rights leader and Congressman John Lewis (1940-2020) who wrote\, “My fellow Americans\, this is a special moment in our history. Just as people of all faiths and no faiths\, and all backgrounds\, creeds\, and colors banded together decades ago to fight for equality and justice in a peaceful\, orderly\, non-violent fashion\, we must do so again.” His powerful words are a reminder for all of us - present and future generations to stay hopeful\, proactive\, and resilient in our collective efforts to end racial discrimination and foster a true democracy. \n\nIn this spirit\, Stamps Gallery invited the undergraduate and graduate students at Penny W. Stamps School of Art & Design\, to design posters and make videos to respond and contemplate what each of us can do to build a stronger community\, one that is based on the values of racial equality\, justice and belonging. How can we acknowledge our own biases\, learn from each other\, and listen to the voices of those that have been silenced? We are at a pivotal moment in our history as the pandemic radically transforms everyday life. Through this exhibition Stamps Gallery asks the UM community to come together as artists and audiences and envision models for inclusion that are grounded in equality\, belonging and empathy.\n\nRespond/ Resist/ Rethink: A Stamps Student Poster & Video Exhibition includes work by Emily Albright\, Adriana Alcala\, Nathan Byrne\, David Forsee\, Eloise Jansenn\, Rey Jeong\, Sohyun Lim\, Anika Love\, Maggie McConnell\, Willian Minzer\, Judah Premble\, Casey Rheault\, Natalia Rocafuerte\, Jenna Scheen\, Ellie Schmidt\, Abigail Seguin\, LaKyla Thomas\, Elijah Thompson\, Benjamin Winans\, and Molly Wu.\n\nArtwork was selected through an open call by a committee of Stamps faculty\, students\, and staff including Nicholas Dowgwillo\, Eloise Janssen\, Keesa V.

After Lewis petitioned Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. to help integrate a segregated school in his hometown of Troy\, Alabama\, King sent “the boy from Troy” a round trip bus ticket to meet with him. From that meeting onward\, Lewis became one of King’s closest allies. He organized Freedom Rides that left him bloodied or jailed\, and stood at the front lines in the historic marches on Washington and Selma. He never lost the spirit of the “boy from Troy” and called on his fellow Americans to get into “good trouble” until his passing on July 17\, 2020.\n\n96 Minutes.

Music and Resilience in Early Postwar Poland DESCRIPTION:This talk examines the composers who survived the Second World War in Poland and the music they wrote during the war’s aftermath. It analyzes longer-range continuities in composition in Poland across the war period. To do so\, Mackenzie Pierce examines previously unconsidered archival materials to show how the wartime survival of the composers Tadeusz Zygfryd Kassern\, Zygmunt Mycielski\, and Roman Palester informed their postwar aesthetics. He shows how these individual reactions to the war gained—or failed to gain—broader social support. Ultimately\, he argues\, these composers reactivated deep-seated beliefs about the power of the aesthetic to mediate individual and collective experience\, bolstering an expressive\, emotional musical style that would resonate through postwar Polish composition for years to come.\n\nMackenzie Pierce is assistant professor of musicology at the School of Music\, Theater & Dance at the University of Michigan. His research focuses on the cultural aftermath of WWII among Poland’s composers\, musicologists\, and performers\, and he has overseen world and US premieres of the works of Roman Palester and Tadeusz Zygfryd Kassern\, among others. His articles appear in *19th-Century Music*\, *The Journal of Musicology*\, and *The Cambridge Companion to Music and Fascism*. His research has been supported through fellowships from the United States Holocaust Memorial Museum\, the Polin Museum of the History of Polish Jews\, and the Kościuszko Foundation.\n\nRegistration for this Zoom webinar is required at http://myumi.ch/dOX55.\n\nIf there is anything we can do to make this event accessible to you\, please contact us at weisercenter@umich.edu.

How do these everyday contacts contribute to persistent racial gaps in police-community trust in the U.S.? And how can we intervene to build trust between law enforcement and communities of color? I use a novel source of data — police body camera footage— to reveal racial disparities in police officers' interpersonal communication and their causal effects on citizens' institutional trust in the police. In turn\, community members evaluate officers’ language and tone through the lens of their trust in law enforcement. I conclude with ongoing research on these cycles of racial inequity- and how we might break them.

Her mission with the work is to stimulate voter engagement\, political awareness\, and community participation in challenging lockdown conditions\, through the act of giving voice to the concerns of fellow citizens during the lead-up to the 2020 Presidential election.\n \nThe text for Voters’ Broadcast is excerpted from artist Sheryl Oring’s ongoing project I Wish to Say\, which uses vintage typewriters for social change. I Wish to Say consists of performances in which Oring and a pool of typists work on vintage manual typewriters and invite the public to dictate postcards to the U.S. President.

Yet\, discourse related to diversity\, equity\, and inclusion (DEI) in engineering is often focused on recruiting and retaining students who are racially minoritized and/or women in the field. Less attention is given to what students learn about DEI during their graduate training. Drawing from findings across multiple research projects\, this talk will explore what graduate students learn about the role of DEI in engineering and the implications these lessons have for racially minoritized students’ retention\, success\, and career pathways.\n\nBIOGRAPHICAL SKETCH: Dr. Rosemary (Rosie) Perez is an Associate Professor in the Center for the Study of Higher and Postsecondary Education at the University of Michigan. She earned her B.S. in biological sciences and psychology at Carnegie Mellon University\, her M.Ed. in higher education and student affairs at The University of Vermont\, and her Ph.D. in higher education from University of Michigan. Dr. Perez’s scholarship has three interrelated lines of inquiry and explores: (a) how people make meaning of collegiate experiences\; (b) diverse learning environments and intercultural development\; and (c) the professional socialization of graduate students and new practitioners. Across projects\, Dr. Perez explores the tensions between structure and agency\, and how power\, privilege\, and oppression affect individuals and groups within higher education. Her research has been funded by the National Science Foundation\, Spencer Foundation\, Susan Thompson Buffett Foundation\, and ACPA-College Student Educators International.

Due to technical and biological reasons unique to scRNA-seq data\, clustering and batch effect correction are almost indispensable to ensure valid and powerful data analysis. Multiple methods have been proposed for these two important tasks. For clustering\, we have found that different methods\, including state-of-the-art methods such as Seurat\, SC3\, CIDR\, SIMLR\, t-SNE + k-means\, yield varying results in terms of both the number of clusters and actual cluster assignments. We have developed ensemble methods\, SAFE-clustering and SAME-clustering\, that leverages hyper-graph partitioning algorithms and a mixture model-based approach respectively to produce more robust and accurate ensemble solution on top of clustering results from individual methods. For batch effect correction\, we have developed methods based on supervised mutual nearest neighbor detection to harness the power of known cell type labels for certain single cells. We benchmarked all methods in various scRNA-seq datasets to demonstrate their utilities.\n\nShort bio: Yun Li\, PhD is an Associate professor of Genetics and Biostatistics at the University of North Carolina\, Chapel Hill.

Watch Boys State\, a new documentary film now on Apple TV+\n\nThe sensational winner of the Grand Jury Prize for documentary at this year's Sundance Film Festival\, Boys State is a wildly entertaining and continually revealing immersion into a week-long annual program in which a thousand Texas high school seniors gather for an elaborate mock exercise: building their own state government. Filmmakers Jesse Moss and Amanda McBaine closely track the escalating tensions that arise within a particularly riveting gubernatorial race\, training their cameras on unforgettable teenagers like Ben\, a Reagan-loving arch-conservative who brims with confidence despite personal setbacks\, and Steven\, a progressive-minded child of Mexican immigrants who stands by his convictions amidst the sea of red. In the process\, they have created a complex portrait of contemporary American masculinity\, as well as a microcosm of our often dispiriting national political divisions that nevertheless manages to plant seeds of hope. Apple and A24 present Boys State\, a Concordia Studio production.

For those who purchased before 12/15\, you will have access to view the film until 12/31/20.\n\nSynopsis:\nAn intimate account of legendary U.S. Representative John Lewis’ life\, legacy and more than 60 years of extraordinary activism — from the bold teenager on the front lines of the Civil Rights movement to the legislative powerhouse he was throughout his career. After Lewis petitioned Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. to help integrate a segregated school in his hometown of Troy\, Alabama\, King sent “the boy from Troy” a round trip bus ticket to meet with him. From that meeting onward\, Lewis became one of King’s closest allies. He organized Freedom Rides that left him bloodied or jailed\, and stood at the front lines in the historic marches on Washington and Selma. He never lost the spirit of the “boy from Troy” and called on his fellow Americans to get into “good trouble” until his passing on July 17\, 2020.\n\n96 Minutes.

Wright Museum of African American History and the U-M Museum of Art\, with funding from The Andrew W. Mellon Foundation\, Ghanaian artist Ibrahim Mahama explores global exchange\, commerce and the troubling histories of colonialism and slavery in the Western world. \n\nMahama's artistic practice illustrates\, as he explains\, how art education\, art and cultural opportunities \"allow for people to find new ways to acquire knowledge\, not only of themselves\, but their histories and the places and spaces in which they find themselves.\"\n\nEnveloping the contours of a museum building or wall\, the blankets of jute fibers are meant to contrast with the monumentality of the institutional buildings and spaces they cover\, becoming remnants and traces that reference the hands of laborers\, the imprints of colonialism and the interference of Britain and the U.S. in Ghanaian history.\n\nThe project marks the first outdoor exhibition of Mahama's work in the United States. It is responsive to the present moment\, offering students and the broader community the opportunity to engage with the arts in a public space at a time when gatherings inside buildings and museums are limited.\n\nCurator's Statement:\n\nGhanaian artist Ibrahim Mahama’s installations are cumulative moments of reckoning\, mending\, and recycling. Things fall apart\, come undone. His constructions defy any notions of permanence and longevity. They are monuments to the in-between and the upending\, begging the question\, “What can we do?”\n\nMahama incorporates jute sacks—synonymous with the trade markets of Ghana where he lives and works—as a raw material. He works collaboratively with his community to complete the extensive sewing of the sacks required in preparation for his projects. For the U-M installations\, he incorporates materials from his previous seminal works over the last decade as a retrospective.\n\nThe markings\, stitching\, and signs of wear on the jute remind us of the many changing hands and endless labor behind international trade—the human toll of capitalism\, commodification\, and globalization. The fabric itself acts as metaphor for Ghana’s complicated history defined by Dutch colonialism and the Gold Coast slave trade\, British rule till 1957\, and a future de-railed by military coups post-independence.\n\nRather than grand gestures\, Mahama’s installations are humble acts of endurance. They are covert art take-overs\, subverting architecture and disrupting the pristine fascia of our institutional buildings. They hold us accountable for past trespasses. \n\nMahama is committed to offering his own country the same cultural opportunities and experiences available to those in the West. Most recently he designed and opened the Savannah Centre for Contemporary Arts in his hometown of Tamale Ghana\, contributing towards the expansion of his country’s contemporary art scene. An extension of his art practice\, the centre brings Mahama’s many visionary sketches to life\, creating classrooms in old airplanes\, a swimming pool for children’s play\, and public spaces for gatherings and the exchange of ideas.\n\nIn this pivotal year defined by Covid-19\, worldwide protests in support of Black Lives Matter\, climate change\, and our U.S. Presidential election in the balance\, Ibrahim Mahama’s work acknowledges failures and false promises\, but also the opportunities that can reveal themselves in times of crisis. \n\nPerhaps generations emerging from crisis can learn from the ghosts of the past and generate entirely new systems\, not motivated by profit or self-interest\, but by a deep commitment to the hard work ahead\, our willingness to do it\, and to the mutual space for dreams.\n\n–Amanda Krugliak\, arts curator\, Institute for the Humanities and curator of In Between the World and Dreams \n\nIn-Between the World and Dreams is a multi-venue project led by the U-M Institute for the Humanities Gallery\, in partnership with UMMA and the Charles H. Wright Museum of African American History\, Detroit. \n\nIn-Between the World and Dreams is made possible by a grant from The Andrew W.

Theology\, Ideology and Polemic: The Image of the Rāfiḍa in al-Jāḥiẓ’s Corpus DESCRIPTION:IISS is pleased to announce the public lecture \"Theology\, Ideology and Polemic: The Image of the Rāfiḍa in al-Jāḥiẓ’s Corpus\" by Professor Hussain Abdulsater (Department of Classics\, University of Notre Dame):\n \nTexts are mirrors that can reflect sentiments and tactics that authors captured and channeled into society in their portrayals. In particular\, sectarian polemics served as discourses of legitimation in the formative period of Islamic theological schools. According to the great Muʿtazilī master Abū ʿAlī al-Jubbāʾī (d. 915)\, his ancestor the great littérateur Abū ʿUthmān al-Jāḥiẓ (d. 868-9) is famed for his obsessive compulsion to argue against the Rāfiḍa. \n\nThis talk examines how Jāḥiẓ portrayed the Imāmī community (rāfiḍa) in terms of both its theological views and its social practices. What emerges from his writings on the Rāfiḍa is an image of a community of simple-minded fanatics. One the one hand\, the Imāmīs adhere to anthropomorphic and deterministic beliefs and are blind followers of authority. On the other hand\, they are passionate believers who strongly stand in solidarity with one another. This\, for Jāḥiẓ\, explains their coalition with the superficial traditionalists against the rationalist Muʿtazilīs.\n\nPlease register at https://umich.zoom.us/meeting/register/tJUqceyhpj4vGdK2ABUNb1QFv1UbVT3ZX6ih UID:78780-20123141@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/78780 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Classical Studies,islam,Lecture,Middle East Studies,Virtual LOCATION:Off Campus Location CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20201023T152336 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20201029T130000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20201029T143000 SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Providing a Positive Remote Work Experience OL21PPRWE01 DESCRIPTION:This session will focus on supporting a positive remote work experience.

U-M Industrial and Operations Engineering graduate students and faculty are especially encouraged to attend.\n\nTitle:\nCOVID-19 Forecasting: Three Cheers for Simple Models\n\nAbstract:\nOver the last six months we have witnessed policymakers grappling with how to respond to the spread of COVID-19 across the globe. In the United States\, policymakers at local\, state\, and federal levels have faced difficult decisions regarding the degree to which citizens should interact with each other\, how much of the economy should be curtailed\, and how to allocate scarce testing and hospital resources. These decisions have been informed and guided by a set of epidemiological models. \n\nIn this talk\, we analyze the performance of the models used to forecast the spread of COVID-19 and relate differences in performance to differing modeling approaches and structures. For example\, some COVID-19 models are “bottom-up” and model the interactions between individuals in detail. While other models are “top-down” and attempt to capture the high-level dynamics of the spread. Some models include uncertainty\, while others are deterministic. Certain models are designed to inform policy decisions\, while others are meant to provide forecasts.\n\nWe compare the performance of these models to a simple (one-parameter) model that we have used to forecast the spread of COVID-19 at the national\, state\, and local level. Surely large models with dozens of parameters\, backed by a team of experts\, should outperform a simple model that has one input and runs in Excel. As we discuss\, a few COVID-19 models do achieve this level of success.\n\nWe will discuss this apparent paradox and the implications for decision analysis. \n\nBio:\nEric Bickel is a professor and director of both the Operations Research & Industrial Engineering and Engineering Management programs at The University of Texas at Austin. Eric holds a courtesy appointment in the Department of Information\, Risk\, and Operations Management in the McCombs School of Business and directs the Center for Engineering and Decision Analytics (CEDA).\n\nHis research interests include the theory and practice of decision analysis and its application to corporate strategy\, public policy\, and sports. His work has been featured in The Wall Street Journal\, The New York Times\, The Financial Times\, and Sports Illustrated. In addition\, Professor Bickel and his research are featured in the documentary Cool It!. His research into climate engineering was named as the top approach to address climate change by a panel of economists\, including three Nobel Laureates. He has also been a guest on the MLB Network show Clubhouse Confidential.\n\nEric joined Strategic Decisions Group in 1995\, where he remains a director and partner. He has practiced decision analysis for 25 years. He consults around the world in a range of industries\, including oil and gas\, electricity generation/transmission/delivery\, energy trading and marketing\, commodity and specialty chemicals\, life sciences\, financial services\, and metals and mining.\n\nHe is Past-President of the Decision Analysis Society.\n\nEric holds both M.S. and Ph.D. degrees from the Department of Engineering-Economic Systems at Stanford University and a B.S. in mechanical engineering with a minor in economics from New Mexico State University.\n\nEric claims to be the only decision analyst listed in Hollywood's Internet Movie Database (imdb.me/jericbickel).

The increase in melting has activated a dynamic surface hydrologic system contributing to significant mass loss. Surface melt runoff contributes directly to Greenland’s mass loss as well as infiltration which impact ice dynamics and mass discharge. The ice sheet has a few critical bounding forces that can influence the rate of mass loss which includes the loss of ice shelves/tongues\, enhanced calving at marine-terminating outlet glaciers\, and an evolving basal hydrologic system due to infiltration of surface melt. In particular\, the impact of surface melt water on ice dynamics via supraglacial lake drainage and runoff has been well documented. Little attention has been focused on direct injection of surface melt water into the shear margins of fast flowing\, marine-terminating outlet glaciers\, which are a critical control on mass flux. Our initial work was the first to characterize water-filled crevasse ponds within the shear margins of Jakobshavn Isbræ and assess the volume of infiltrated melt water potentially reaching the bed. In the intervening years since this seminal work\, we have utilized satellite observations and numerical models to decode the impact of hydrologic shear weakening due to melt water injection from these structures with implications for the evolution of Greenland’s other marine-terminating outlet glaciers under a warming climate.\n\nWe have constrained the theoretical impact of hydrologic shear weakening on extra-marginal ice flow using diagnostic models and provide projections for flow enhancement under future warming scenarios. For select seasons\, we assessed relationships between extra-marginal\, summer-time ice velocities and drainage of water-filled crevasses. We are starting to understand factors that drive how these crevasse systems fill and drain. We have characterized the spatial and temporal variability of melt extent over a 16 year period and assess the temporal changes in hydrologic state (filled vs. drained). Lastly\, we explore implications for how not only water-filled shear ponds but other mechanisms such as rheological modification influence the dynamics of marine-terminating outlet glacier systems. Under future regional warming scenarios\, we expect for mass discharge from Greenland’s outlet glaciers to be enhanced by perturbations to shear margins of these glacial systems.

We are born out of the bloody war of 1914-1918.” This essay is concerned with the constitution of a new people\, attending in particular to the role of images\, performance\, and practices in the project of political founding. Focusing on the 1920 and 1921 convention\, I argue that for the United Negro Improvement Association\, political founding was a vehicle through which participants came to understand themselves as constituting the figure of Universal Negro—a figure represented through the convention as a transnational and empowered political subject. Political founding was on this view a process of transforming one’s self-perception\, of cognizing oneself as a member of a transnational people politically capable of transforming the prevailing conditions of racial domination.\n\nProfessor Getachew will present a short introduction to her pre-circulated paper\; this will be followed by brief comments by Professor Jesse Hoffnung-Garskof (University of Michigan) and audience questions.\n\n***NOTE: The link to the pre-circulated paper will be supplied in the Zoom registration confirmation email.***\n\nAdom Getachew is Neubauer Family Assistant Professor of Political Science and the College at the University of Chicago.

Following the trends in cloud\, mobile\, and machine learning applications\, finding the right programming abstractions is key in unlocking this potential. A robot's code needs to sense the environment\, control the hardware\, and communicate with other robots. Current programming languages do not provide the necessary hardware platform-independent abstractions\, and therefore\, developing robot applications require detailed knowledge of signal processing\, control\, path planning\, network protocols\, and various platform-specific details. Further\, porting applications across hardware platforms becomes tedious. In this talk\, I will present our recent explorations in finding good abstractions for robot code. The end result of our research is a new language called Koord which abstracts platform-specific functions for sensing\, communication\, and low-level control and makes platform-independent control and coordination code portable and modularly verifiable.\n\nAbout the speaker...\n\nSayan Mitra is a Professor of Electrical and Computer Engineering at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign. His research is centered around safe autonomy. He holds a PhD from MIT\, MSc from the Indian Institute of Science\, Bangalore\, and an undergraduate degree in Electrical Engineering from Jadavpur University\, Kolkata. Sayan was a postdoctoral fellow at CalTech\, and held visiting faculty positions at Oxford University\, TU Vienna\, and Kirtland Air Force Research Laboratory. At Illinois\, his research group has created a number of the leading software tools for programming and verification of autonomous systems and have authored more than one hundred peer reviewed articles. A textbook authored by Sayan “Verifying cyber-physical systems: A path to safe autonomy” will be published by the MIT Press in February 2021. Sayan’s work has been recognized by the National Science Foundation's CAREER Award in 2011\, AFOSR Young Investigator Research Program Award in 2012\, IEEE-HKN C.

Every Latino man who drove away from their shared apartment above a small auto repair shop that day had failed to return—arrested\, one by one\, by ICE agents and local police. As the two women discussed what to do next\, a SWAT team clad in body armor and carrying assault rifles stormed the room. As Guadalupe remembers it\, \"The soldiers came in the house. They knocked down doors. They threw gas. They had guns. We were two women with small children... The kids terrified\, the kids screaming.\"\n\nIn Separated\, William D. Lopez examines the lasting damage done by this daylong act of collaborative immigration enforcement in Washtenaw County\, Michigan. Exploring the chaos of enforcement through the lens of community health\, Lopez discusses deportation's rippling negative effects on families\, communities\, and individuals. Focusing on those left behind\, Lopez reveals their efforts to cope with trauma\, avoid homelessness\, handle worsening health\, and keep their families together as they attempt to deal with a deportation machine that is militarized\, traumatic\, implicitly racist\, and profoundly violent.\n\nLopez uses this single home raid to show what immigration law enforcement looks like from the perspective of the people who actually experience it. Drawing on in-depth interviews with twenty-four individuals whose lives were changed that day in 2013\, as well as field notes\, records obtained under the Freedom of Information Act\, and his own experience as an activist\, Lopez combines rigorous research with narrative storytelling. Putting faces and names to the numbers behind deportation statistics\, Separated urges readers to move beyond sound bites and consider the human experience of mixed-status communities in the small everyday towns that dot the interior of the United States.\n\nThis event is part of IRWG's Gender: New Works\, New Questions series\, which spotlights recent publications by U-M faculty members and allows for deeper discussion by an interdisciplinary panel.
