SUMMARY:Exhibition:\"Watch Me Work — Portraits of Self\"
DESCRIPTION:In *Watch Me Work — Portraits of Self*\, Detroit artist Sydney G. James brings to the forefront and celebrates the work of Black women. The USPS worker\, the artist\, the event-planning Zoom mom—the paintings in this exhibition reposition the narrative of black women’s visibility and value. Each portrait honors the individual and collective contributions and labors of Black women\, persistent through the pandemics\, through police violence\, and whether seen or unseen.\n\nWith the Gallery closed to the public due to COVID\, *Watch Me Work* will be completely visible from the street. Artwork will be hung in the Washington and Thayer-street first floor windows of the Institute for the Humanities\, with two additional pieces visible through the gallery window on Thayer in a public celebration of these meaningful human relationships and connections.\n\nThis exhibition was made possible by a grant from The Andrew W. Mellon Foundation.

SUMMARY:Livestream / Virtual:Results or Roses: New and Assorted Works
DESCRIPTION:View the online gallery at https://sites.lsa.umich.edu/humanitiesgalleries/sarah-rose-sharp/\n\nResults or Roses: New and Assorted Works is a virtual exhibition by artist and writer Sarah Rose Sharp and part of the Institute for the Humanities' Andrew W. Mellon Foundation-funded \"High Stakes Art\" initiative. The exhibition of new and collected fiber-based art incorporates salvaged and found bits of cultural and fiber art that\, as she explains\, \"forms a discourse that is physical rather than textual.\"\n\nThanks to the grant from The Andrew W. Mellon Foundation\, we supported Sharp's work on Results and Roses during the summer of 2020\, but due to COVID-19 were forced to postpone the pop-up exhibition also scheduled for summer 2020. This fall we installed Results and Roses as a pop-up exhibition in the Osterman Common Room. Due to building security\, it's not open to the general public\, but we are thrilled to present the work online as a virtual exhibition. \n\nAbout the Artist\nSarah Rose Sharp is a Detroit-based writer\, activist\, photographer\, and multimedia artist. She writes about art and culture for Art in America\, Hyperallergic\, Flash Art\, Sculpture Magazine\, ArtSlant\, and others. Sarah was named a 2015 Kresge Literary Arts Fellow for Art Criticism and is a 2018 recipient of the Rabkin Foundation Prize. She is a guest lecturer at several universities in Southeast Michigan and served as a mentor in the NYFA Immigrant Artist Mentorship Program in 2018. Sarah has served as guest curator and juror for institutions including Penn State University (State College\, PA)\, Scarab Club (Detroit\, MI)\, The Terhune Gallery (Toledo\, OH)\, and The Ann Arbor Art Center (Ann Arbor\, MI). Sarah has shown her own work in New York\, Seattle\, Columbus & Toledo\, OH\, Covington\, KY\, and Detroit—including at the Detroit Institute of Arts—with solo shows at Simone De Sousa Gallery and Public Pool. She is primarily concerned with artist and viewer experiences of making and engaging with art\, and conducts ongoing research into the state of contemporary art in redeveloping cities\, with special focus and regard for Detroit.

SUMMARY:Film Screening:John Lewis: Good Trouble (SOLD OUT)
DESCRIPTION:REDEMPTIONS ARE SOLD OUT! 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.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:In-Between the World and Dreams
DESCRIPTION:In this multi-venue project led by the Institute for the Humanities\, in collaboration with the Charles H. 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.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Collection Ensemble
DESCRIPTION:EXTRAORDINARY ARTISTS\, STARTLING WORKS OF ART\, PUT IN DIALOG FOR YOU TO DISCOVER \n \nCollection Ensemble presents the first major reinstallation of UMMA's iconic entry space in over a decade. 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! This is a free event\, and all are welcome.\n\n

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:\"Weight of Honor\"  Film Discussion and Panel
DESCRIPTION:“The Weight of Honor” is the first comprehensive documentary to chronicle the lives of families caring for their\ncatastrophically wounded returning from wars in Iraq and Afghanistan. Over the course of five years\, the film follows the arc of what\nhappens when some of America's best and strongest volunteer to protect our nation\, but return home physically and emotionally\nbroken and disillusioned.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:EEB Virtual Seminar: Algal microbiomes alter competitive interactions between their hosts
DESCRIPTION:Phytoplankton communities are responsible for half of Earth’s net primary productivity and their community composition is a regulator of many biogeochemical cycles and food web dynamics. Bacteria associated with phytoplankton have been shown to affect host fitness\, either negatively or positively\, but how these associated microbiomes influence phytoplankton interspecific interactions and coexistence remains untested. We carried out a series of experiments using both eukaryotic green algae as well as the harmful bloom-forming cyanobacterium Microcystis aeruginosa to test whether microbiomes alter the strength of interactions among their hosts. Specifically\, we tested whether microbiomes altered the sensitivity of its host to compete with an established species by performing competition assays between hosts grown either without or with associated bacteria. Among eukaryotic green algae\, we found that host microbiomes reduced the sensitivity of phytoplankton to interspecific competition in half of all pairwise comparisons tested. Although microbiomes changed the magnitude of interspecific interactions\, bacteria did not fundamentally alter the type of host ecological interaction observed (i.e.\, competition vs. facilitation). For competition between M. aeruginosa and green algae\, we found that host-associated bacteria increased population densities of M. aeruginosa when competing with an established green algal culture. Conversely\, when M. aeruginosa was dominant\, green algae were only able to grow in the absence of host-associated bacteria. Our results suggest a sizable role of host-associated bacteria in the competitive and facilitative interactions that control phytoplankton biodiversity and community composition\, including their importance in the establishment and persistence of freshwater cyanobacterial blooms.

SUMMARY:Livestream / Virtual:CLASP Seminar Series: Dr. Alex Glocer of NASA GSFC
DESCRIPTION:Dr. Alex Glocer of NASA GSFC will give a virtual lecture as part of the CLASP Seminar Series. Please join us!\n\nThis is a Zoom virtual event. \nZoom link: https://umich.zoom.us/j/92337149110?pwd=NzZFRUJ5dUhGcEtIcHRFRFVtSll3QT09\nMeeting ID: 923 3714 9110\nPasscode: 421507\n\nTITLE: Recent Developments in Modeling the Origin of Near-Earth Plasma \n\nABSTRACT: The origin of near-Earth plasma has been a topic of intense scientific study since the beginning of the space age. Earth's magnetosphere\, the magnetic cavity carved out of the solar wind by the planet's intrinsic magnetic field\, is populated by two sources. One source is the solar wind\, the tenuous plasma comprised primarily of protons that is constantly blowing outward from the sun. The second source is Earth itself\, where plasma flows from the ionosphere to fill the magnetosphere with protons as well as heavier ion species. Plasma of ionospheric origin is implicated in a host of magnetospheric processes with impacts on various space weather impacts. This presentation will discuss recent advances in modeling ionospheric outflows of plasma and their impact on magnetospheric composition and dynamics. These advances apply an amalgam of fluid and kinetic techniques\, adding new features and capabilities to models in the Space Weather Modeling Framework. These tools are then applied to study a number of interesting science problems. First\, we will use numerical simulations to explore how energy inputs connect to ionospheric outflow for H+ and O+ and what controls the upper and lower bounds of the outflow. These results help to explore the causal physical connections underlying widely used empirical results.  We will then look at the coupled space environment during a geomagnetic storm using a simulation that separates the different sources of near-Earth plasma. These simulations include separate fluids for solar wind and ionospheric protons\, ionospheric oxygen\, and the plasmasphere. Additionally\, the model includes the effects of both a hot ring current and a cold plasmasphere population simultaneously. \nA number of intriguing results are found in this study touching on the evolution of magnetospheric composition\, hemispheric asymmetry of ionospheric outflow\, and the system-wide impact caused by the arrival of the plasmaspheric plume at the dayside magnetopause. \nFinally\, the potential of new flight projects to address outstanding mysteries in this area will be discussed.

SUMMARY:Class / Instruction:Chair's Distinguished Lecture | Trust and Transparency on Modern Flight Decks: Why They Matter and How to Support Them
DESCRIPTION:Nadine Sarter\nProfessor \nIndustrial and Operations Engineering\, Aerospace Engineering and Robotics\nDirector\, Center for Ergonomics\n\nThe introduction of high levels of automation and autonomy into the aviation industry has helped improve the precision and efficiency of operations. At the same time\, it has created challenges for flight crews and resulted in incidents and accidents due to breakdowns in pilot-automation interaction. These breakdowns highlight the need to better support trust calibration and system transparency. Trust (the attitude that an agent will help achieve an individual’s goals in a situation characterized by uncertainty and vulnerability\; Lee and See\, 2004)  is a critical intervening factor affecting automation usage. Misuse happens when pilots trust an automated system too much and over rely on the automation. Disuse happens when pilots lack trust in an automated system which can lead to the slow adoption\, and even complete rejection of systems. Fostering safe and appropriate use of modern technologies requires better support for trust calibration which\, in turn\, calls for improved system transparency where the machine agent shares information regarding its status\, reasoning\, abilities\, and plans for future actions with the human operator in a timely and effective manner. In this talk\, aviation mishaps will be examined to illustrate problems with trust and transparency and suggest possible solutions to this challenge to human-machine teaming.  \n\nAbout the speaker...\n\nNadine Sarter is a Professor of Industrial and Operations Engineering\, Aerospace Engineering and Robotics at the University of Michigan where she also serves as Director of the Center for Ergonomics. Her primary research interests include (1) human-machine teaming\, (2) operator trust in autonomous systems\, (3) adaptive function allocation\, (4) attention management\, (5) multimodal interface design\, (6) and the design of decision aids for high-tempo operations. She has conducted her work in a variety of application domains\, including aviation and space\, medicine\, military operations\, and the automotive industry. Dr. Sarter is a Member of the National Academy of Engineering (NAE) and a Fellow of the Human Factors and Ergonomics Society (HFES). She serves as Associate Editor for ‘Human Factors’\, the HFES’ flagship journal\, and has contributed as an invited member on numerous government and scientific committees\, most recently the National Academies Panel on Human Factors Science at the Army Research Laboratory (ARL)\, the Human Performance Expert Panel To Inform The Air Force Strategy 2030\, the National Academies Expert Panel on FAA Staffing Issues and the FAA Flight Deck Automation Working Group. She also served as an expert witness in the National Transportation Safety Board (NTSB) Investigative Hearing on Asiana Flight 214.

SUMMARY:Livestream / Virtual:Donia Human Rights Center Discussion. Should There Be A Human Right To Cross Borders In Search Of A Better Life?
DESCRIPTION:Please note: This event will be held virtually EST through Zoom. This webinar is free and open to the public\, but registration is required. Once you've registered the joining information will be sent to your email.\n   \n   Register at: http://myumi.ch/1pv3V\n\nIn his recently-published book\, “Migration and Integration\; The Case for Liberalism with Borders\,” Professor Farer argues that any legal argument for a general right to enter is flimsy. But\, he goes on to propose\, by invoking two of the deep values on which treaty-based human rights rest\, you can make a strong moral case for recognizing a human right to cross international borders in search of a better life (not merely  to escape persecution). But the case is not conclusive because it is possible to invoke human rights norms to support the claim that a democratic electorate has the moral authority to decide who may enter the country and on what terms. How should people who imagine themselves as liberal resolve these competing claims? In Farer’s hierarchy of liberal values\, the preservation of liberal democratic governments ranks at the top. Today the walls of liberal government are being breached by right-wing demagogues who have weaponized the migration issue. Farer’s premise is that liberals need to defend the walls by taking possession of the issue. They can do so only by conceding the electorate’s right to decide who and how many may enter and by demonstrating the will to enforce the electorate’s decisions. However\, once they have demonstrated their rejection of open borders\, they can appeal on moral as well as on the grounds of societal self-interest for a generous admissions policy and do so with the promise of electoral success.\n   \n   Tom Farer\, University Professor at the University of Denver\, was dean of the Josef Korbel School of International Studies for 14 years\, 1996-2010. He has served as President of the University of New Mexico\, President of the Inter-American Commission on Human Rights\, a principal organ of the OAS\, and President of the Association of Professional Schools of International Affairs.\n   \n   He has been a senior fellow of the Carnegie Endowment\, the Council on Foreign Relations (of which he is now a member) and the Smithsonian’s Wilson Center for International Scholars. He is on the editorial boards of the American Journal of International Law and the Human Rights Quarterly. He has consulted for Amnesty International and Human Rights Watch. In the US Government he served as special assistant to the General Counsel of the Department of Defense and later as special assistant to the Assistant Secretary of State for Inter-American Affairs. When Somalia still had a state\, he served as assistant to the commanding general of the Somali National Police Force and taught both criminal law and karate to members of the force. In 1993 he served as legal advisor to the UN Peace Enforcement operation in Somalia and in 1994 served as an external reviewer of Uganda’s draft constitution.\n   \n   He has published a dozen books and monographs and over 150 book chapters and articles which have appeared in journals including Foreign Affairs\, Foreign Policy\, the New York Review of Books\, the London Review of Books\, Newsweek\, and the Harvard and Columbia Law Reviews. His penultimate book is \"Confronting Global Terrorism and American Neo-Conservatism:The Framework of a Liberal Grand Strategy.\" He has just completed a book titled “Migration and Integration: The Case for Liberalism with Borders” which Cambridge University Press will publish in January 2020.\n   \n   He is a graduate of Princeton and the Harvard Law School\, both Magna cum Laude. At Harvard he was Notes Editor of the Law Review. He has taught law at Columbia\, Rutgers\, Tulane\, Harvard and American University and foreign policy at Johns Hopkins School of International Studies\, Princeton’s Woodrow Wilson School\, American University’s School of International Service and Cambridge University. He has been an Honorary Professor at Peking University and has an honorary doctorate from Panteion University in Athens\, Greece.\n\n---\n\nAnn Chih Lin is Associate Professor at the University of Michigan Gerald R. Ford School of Public Policy. Dr. Lin studies immigrant political socialization -- how immigrants learn about and relate to government authority in their new country – and immigration policy – how governments choose to recruit migrants. She was co-principal investigator on the Detroit Arab American Study\, a landmark public opinion survey of Arab Americans in Detroit\, and a co-author of a book on the study\, Citizenship in Crisis: Arab Detroit after 9/11. With Yan Chen and Kentaro Toyama\, she is exploring methods to reduce bias against Muslims in two metro Detroit cities. She is also part of a multi-investigator\, multi-national study on the COVID-19 pandemic: \"People and Pandemics: Studying International Coping and Compliance.\"  Dr. Lin received her Ph.D. in political science from the University of Chicago.    \n\nIf there is anything we can do to make this event accessible to you\, please contact us at umichhumanrights@umich.edu.

It can be done to unite people through the humanity of culture and the democracy of participation. This series explores the ways in which healing justice\, creativity and arts enhance cultural organizing through a series of unique workshops led by Detroiters that are at the forefront of this movement. This type of creative organizing empowers communities to come together in celebration of culture while developing valuable skills that challenge power and oppression.

SUMMARY:Livestream / Virtual:Results or Roses: New and Assorted Works
DESCRIPTION:View the online gallery at https://sites.lsa.umich.edu/humanitiesgalleries/sarah-rose-sharp/\n\nResults or Roses: New and Assorted Works is a virtual exhibition by artist and writer Sarah Rose Sharp and part of the Institute for the Humanities' Andrew W. Mellon Foundation-funded \"High Stakes Art\" initiative. The exhibition of new and collected fiber-based art incorporates salvaged and found bits of cultural and fiber art that\, as she explains\, \"forms a discourse that is physical rather than textual.\"\n\nThanks to the grant from The Andrew W. Mellon Foundation\, we supported Sharp's work on Results and Roses during the summer of 2020\, but due to COVID-19 were forced to postpone the pop-up exhibition also scheduled for summer 2020. This fall we installed Results and Roses as a pop-up exhibition in the Osterman Common Room. Due to building security\, it's not open to the general public\, but we are thrilled to present the work online as a virtual exhibition. \n\nAbout the Artist\nSarah Rose Sharp is a Detroit-based writer\, activist\, photographer\, and multimedia artist. She writes about art and culture for Art in America\, Hyperallergic\, Flash Art\, Sculpture Magazine\, ArtSlant\, and others. Sarah was named a 2015 Kresge Literary Arts Fellow for Art Criticism and is a 2018 recipient of the Rabkin Foundation Prize. She is a guest lecturer at several universities in Southeast Michigan and served as a mentor in the NYFA Immigrant Artist Mentorship Program in 2018. Sarah has served as guest curator and juror for institutions including Penn State University (State College\, PA)\, Scarab Club (Detroit\, MI)\, The Terhune Gallery (Toledo\, OH)\, and The Ann Arbor Art Center (Ann Arbor\, MI). Sarah has shown her own work in New York\, Seattle\, Columbus & Toledo\, OH\, Covington\, KY\, and Detroit—including at the Detroit Institute of Arts—with solo shows at Simone De Sousa Gallery and Public Pool. She is primarily concerned with artist and viewer experiences of making and engaging with art\, and conducts ongoing research into the state of contemporary art in redeveloping cities\, with special focus and regard for Detroit.

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.

SUMMARY:Livestream / Virtual:CSAS | \"Reading the Americanized Joothan: The Translator’s Cringe\" Keynote Speech by Arun Mukhejee followed by \"Engaging Anti-Caste Praxis Across Languages\,\" a Three-day Workshop for Writers\, Translators\, Publishers\, and their Readers
DESCRIPTION:Arun Mukherjee's public keynote speech will be held Friday\, November 13th at 9am (to coincide with Friday evening\, Indian Standard Time.) In ‘Reading the Americanized Joothan: The Translator’s Cringe’  Mukherjee will compare the Samya press and the Columbia University Press editions of her translation of Omprakash Valmiki’s autobiography\, Joothan. She will reflect on the changes which took place as the translation travelled from the Indian edition to the American edition\, leading her to realize the importance of guarding the beauty of the text. The event co-organizers Shalmali Jadhav\, Swarnim Khare and Christi Merrill are interested in asking what choices behind the scenes might lead to increasing openness when texts and cultural contexts displace us from our comfort zones as readers of anti-caste literatures.\n\nThis will be followed by three workshop sessions starting on November 13th and continuing on November 14th and 20th at 9am\, in which authors\, translators and publishers discuss pre-circulated published examples in English\, Hindi\, Marathi and Tamil with registered participants in order to demystify and make visible crucial choices in publishing translated work. Speakers include  Ajay Navaria\, Alok Mukherjee\, Aniruddhan Vasudevan\, Anita Bharti\, Aruni Kashyap\, Arun Mukherjee\, G.N. Devy\, Laura Brueck\,  Mandira Sen\, Maya Pandit\, Meena Kandasamy\, Perumal Murugan\, Sharankumar Limbale\, Susan Harris and Urmila Pawar. ’Advanced registration is required.\n\nRegister for the keynote zoom webinar here: https://umich.zoom.us/webinar/register/WN_pVt5CIOdS1qry-Rz5ks28g\n\nRegister for the post-keynote workshops here: https://docs.google.com/forms/d/1kghzAyEr4BSDPxzRnyqBU2iiXMwgVoDddSM4zINhPek/viewform?ts=5fa43c8a&gxids=7628&edit_requested=true\n\nThis conference is funded in part by a Title VI federal grant from the US Department of Education.\n\nIf you are a person with a disability who requires an accommodation to attend this event\, please reach out to us at csas@umich.edu at least 2 weeks in advance of this event.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:In-Between the World and Dreams
DESCRIPTION:In this multi-venue project led by the Institute for the Humanities\, in collaboration with the Charles H. 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.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Michael Woodroofe Lecture Series: Emery Brown\, Director of the Harvard–MIT Program of Health Sciences and Technology
DESCRIPTION:Abstract: General anesthesia is a drug-induced\, reversible condition comprised of five behavioral states: unconsciousness\, amnesia (loss of memory)\, antinociception (loss of pain sensation)\, akinesia (immobility)\, and hemodynamic stability with control of the stress response. Our work shows that a primary mechanism through which anesthetics create these altered states of arousal is by initiating and maintaining highly structured oscillations. These oscillations impair communication among brain regions. We illustrate this effect by presenting findings from our human studies of general anesthesia using high-density EEG recordings and intracranial recordings. These studies have allowed us to give a detailed characterization of the neurophysiology of loss and recovery of consciousness due to propofol. We show how these dynamics change systematically with different anesthetic classes and with age. We have developed a principled\, neuroscience-based paradigm for using the EEG to monitor the brain states of patients receiving general anesthesia. We demonstrate that the state of general anesthesia can be rapidly reversed by activating specific brain circuits. Finally\, we demonstrate that the state of general anesthesia can be controlled using closed loop feedback control systems.  The success of our research has depended critically on tight coupling of experiments\, signal processing research and mathematical modeling. \n\nBiography: Emery N. Brown\, M.D.\, Ph.D. is the Warren M. Zapol Professor of Anaesthesia at Harvard Medical School\; an anesthesiologist at Massachusetts General Hospital\; and the Edward Hood Taplin Professor of Medical Engineering and Computational Neuroscience at MIT. Brown is an anesthesiologist-statistician whose research is defining the neuroscience of how anesthetics produce general anesthesia. He also develops statistical methods for neuroscience data analysis. Dr. Brown has received the American Society of Anesthesiologists Excellence in Research Award and the Dickson Prize in Science and the Swartz Prize for Computational and Theoretical Neuroscience. He is a fellow of the American Academy of Arts Sciences and the National Academy of Inventors. Dr. Brown is a member of the National Academy of Medicine\, National Academy of Sciences and the National Academy of Engineering. \n\nThis seminar will be livestreamed via Zoom https://umich.zoom.us/j/94350208889\nThere will be a virtual reception to follow.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Collection Ensemble
DESCRIPTION:EXTRAORDINARY ARTISTS\, STARTLING WORKS OF ART\, PUT IN DIALOG FOR YOU TO DISCOVER \n \nCollection Ensemble presents the first major reinstallation of UMMA's iconic entry space in over a decade. 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!

SUMMARY:Livestream / Virtual:Biophysics Seminar Series
DESCRIPTION:The Biophysics Virtual Seminar Series presents:\n\nDr. Nancy Forde - Department of Physics\, Simon Fraser University\n\n*“Collagen: a fascinating responsive material building block from Nature”*\n\nJoin us on Zoom: https://umich.zoom.us/j/96009492561\n\nAbstract: Multicellular life is scaffolded by structures that maintain cells in the desired locations and organizations. Conventionally these extracellular scaffolds have been viewed as rigid\, unchanging supports laid down during development and unaltered except by injury or disease. Recent scientific advances are revealing instead that these matrices are highly dynamic and respond to changes in their local microenvironment\, in turn affecting cells. The collagen family of proteins has been selected via evolution as the preferred building block of these extracellular structures. \n\nIn this talk\, I will introduce some of the fascinating physical properties of the unique triple-helix structure of collagen\, and will highlight the results of our investigations into its mechanical properties. Our single-molecule approaches include centrifuge force microscopy\, optical tweezers and atomic force microscopy\, and many parallels can be drawn with the mechanics of DNA. Our work is revealing clues as to how stability is encoded within collagen’s sequence\, and how collagen’s triple helix balances structural stability with responsiveness to applied force and chemical environment.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Building Your Vision Muscle\; Leaning Into Resilience
DESCRIPTION:PRESENTER: Patricia Berry\, Owner and Lead Consultant\, Patricia Berry Consulting\n\nClick to RSVP and to receive the Zoom link by email: cew.umich.edu/events/building-your-vision-muscle-leaning-into-resilience\n\nTacit Knowledge\, a.k.a. your “Vision Muscle”\, is the things we know\, but don’t yet have words to express. It is the culmination of our lifetime of experiences\, along with the experiences and lessons handed down from those who raised us. Other ways to say it is our sixth sense or our gut intuition\; knowledge that is inside us and that we access on a regular basis but haven’t yet\, or maybe don’t yet know how to\, put into words. It is the thing that entrepreneurs\, leaders\, creatives\, and everyday people put to use to know what they should do next\, because they can imagine it\, and they know it is right because it feels right. It’s hard to quantify\, but your own personal visionary knowledge can often be accessed by getting our left brain — what I like to think of as our resume brain — out of the way\, just for a while\, so that we can let loose our own unique creative knowing that is tacit knowledge. As we begin to recognize and trust our own tacit knowledge\, we can begin to learn how to intentionally access it in order to help us make decisions that allow us to successfully navigate a sometimes uncertain future. Come along with me for a series of Vision Muscle workshops focused on aspects of work and life where easy access to our vision muscle might be particularly helpful. All of the workshops will be using Vision Muscle strategies\, with unique subjects for you to explore based on your own experience\, vision and expertise. This self-directed experience will allow you to access your own unique knowledge and leave you with skills that will allow you to call up your Vision Muscle on a regular basis.\n\nUsing visual images and reflective writing\, participants will learn how to access their tacit knowledge\, or Visioning Muscles\, to gain insight into tools they already have for living with a resilience that supports a more joyful and celebratory life\, no matter their current circumstances. Join facilitator\, entrepreneur and visioning geek Patricia Berry for a hands-on\, interactive experience that brings out your natural visioning abilities. The Zoom Doors to this interactive and reflective workshop will close promptly at noon\, so please arrive a few minutes early to ensure your participation!

SUMMARY:Livestream / Virtual:CSEAS Lecture Series. Uprooting the Diasporic Histories of Southeast Asia
DESCRIPTION:Free event\; please register in advance at: http://myumi.ch/mnbRl\n\nWhat can diasporas teach us about the history of Southeast Asia as a region\, dominated as it is by narratives of hospitality and receptiveness to other cultures and peoples? Remarkably\, the Arab diaspora in Southeast Asia demarcated their own legal jurisdictions by anchoring their kinship obligations and commercial interests that they had developed over several centuries across the Indian Ocean. During the nineteenth century\, links between homeland and destination faded into the background in the colonial period as the diasporic elite remade their lives in Southeast Asia often according to new colonial moulds. Indeed\, the Arab diaspora deliberately chose to lean on bureaucratic infrastructure in their effort to construct new scales of responsibility\, jurisdiction\, and sovereignty. At the same time\, colonial rulers yoked their identities outside of the region viewing them as hybrid\, creole\, mixed and sometimes even outright foreign\, effectively uprooting their histories from the region. This lecture will look at emblems of diasporic lives in the form of legal sources to explore the relationship between indigenous Southeast Asians\, diasporas and colonial authorities.\n   \n   Nurfadzilah Yahaya is assistant professor of history at National University of Singapore. Prior to this\, she was an Early Career Fellow in Islamic Studies at Washington University in St. Louis. Her book Fluid Jurisdictions: Colonial Law and Arabs in Southeast Asia is published by Cornell University Press (2020). Her articles have appeared in Law and History Review\, Journal of Women’s History\, Indonesia nad the Malay World and Muslim World.

DESCRIPTION:LEAD\, Leading Equity And Diversity\, is a series of conversations where attendees have the opportunity to hear from a diverse group of guests who lead and/or support DEI and social justice initiatives. This LEAD conversation will address how higher education administrators\, faculty\, and staff can work in collective action with student activists toward racial equity. In the midst of an unprecedented pandemic and highly-publicized uprisings against racism\, there has been a significant upsurge in student activism advocating for a more inclusive and equitable environment. How can higher education professionals support this just cause and leverage the passion and experiences of student activists.\nAccess Real-Time Translation (CART) captioning services will be available.\nSpeakers\nJ’Taime Lyons\nJ’Taime Lyons is a dual degree M.B.A./M.P.P. student at the University of Michigan from Rocky Mount\, NC. She is the recipient of numerous awards\, including the Truman Scholarship\, and has devoted her life to closing the opportunity gap and connecting schools with their communities. She is currently an intern at Durham’s Children Initiative (DCI)\,working to ensure that racial equity is centered within its Early Childhood Action Plan for all children birth to eight years old. At the University of Michigan\, she currently serves as the Student Affairs Committee chair for the Ford School of Public Policy\, Vice President of Ally Engagement for the Black Business Student Association\, and is a Business + Impact (B + I) Ambassador at Ross School of Business.\nCharles H.F. Davis III\nCharles H.F. Davis III is a third-generation educator committed to the lives\, love\, and liberation of everyday Black people. As an assistant professor of higher education at the Center for the Study of Higher and Postsecondary Education at the University of Michigan\, Dr. Davis’ research and teaching broadly examine issues of power\, systemic oppression\, and organized resistance in college and its social contexts. His current ethnographic project interrogates how law enforcement approaches to campus safety and security\, as enforced by campus police\, are interconnected with logics of state surveillance\, control\, and carceral punishment. Dr. Davis is especially interested in the role borderless organizing and resource mobilization efforts undertaken by students and local communities are working toward abolition and reimagining public safety. He is the founder and director of the Scholars for Black Lives collective and considers Black Lives Matter Los Angeles his primary political home.\nRegistration is required at https://myumi.ch/BoRe8.\nWe want to ensure full and equitable participation in our events.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:LUNCH & LEARN: \"Predictive Analytics\, Energy Systems\, and Storms\" — Seth Guikema
DESCRIPTION:This event is open to all U-M students\, faculty\, and staff.\n\nTitle:\nPredictive Analytics\, Energy Systems\, and Storms\n\nAbstract: \nElectric power systems are critical for daily life\, yet they regularly experience widespread impacts from natural hazards like hurricanes and thunderstorms. Having predictions of these impacts prior to the event has the potential to improve the response by utilities\, allowing them to restore power more quickly and efficiently. This talk will present an overview of how predictive modeling can help utilities in this setting. This provides an example of the broader type of work that IOE students can do in the area of predictive modeling.\n\nBio:\nDr. Seth Guikema is a Professor in the Department of Industrial and Operations Engineering and the Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering at the University of Michigan. Prior to arriving at U-M in 2015\, he was an Associate Professor in the Department of Geography and Environmental Engineering (DoGEE) at Johns Hopkins University. He is also an adjunct Professor II in the Department of Safety\, Economics\, and Planning at the University of Stavanger in Norway\, and a Data Science Research Fellow at One Concern\, Inc.\, a Silicon Valley start-up. His academic training includes a B.S. in Civil & Environmental Engineering (Cornell University)\, a M.S. in Civil & Environmental Engineering (Stanford University)\, a M.E. by thesis in Civil Engineering (University of Canterbury in New Zealand)\, a Ph.D. in Management Science & Engineering with a concentration in Engineering Risk & Decision Analysis (Stanford University)\, and a postdoctoral research position in Civil & Environmental Engineering (Cornell University). \n\nDr. Guikema's research is highly interdisciplinary. Much of his group's recent work is focused on the problems of urban and infrastructure resilience and sustainability in a changing climate\, grounded in data-driven risk analysis and complex systems simulation. One major topic is developing\, testing\, and implementing risk analysis methods based in machine learning\, stochastica and agent-based simulation\, game theory\, and decision analysis. Another strong research thrust in the group is using modern simulation methods to more fully understand the role of human behavior in the evaluation of vulnerability and risk in hazard-prone regions.  \n\nSeth is currently the Area Editor for Mathematical Modeling in the journal Risk Analysis\, was an Associate Editor for the ASCE Journal of Infrastructure Systems until 2018\, and is on the editorial boards of the journals Reliability Engineering and System Safety and Performability Engineering. He previously completed a three-year term on the governing Councils of the International Society for Risk Analysis and the INFORMS Decision Analysis Society.

SUMMARY:Presentation:Museum Studies Program\, Museums at Noon
DESCRIPTION:How do curatorial works and memorial sites simultaneously serve as tools for constructing national identities and as materials in a state’s claim for transnational reputation? How can we frame these questions in the context of post-dictatorial nations and their contested heritage? Looking at the two different cases of Ukraine and Spain\, this presentation will unravel the multiplicity of ways in which cultural artifacts and narratives become the very sites for these discussions and crystalize the impact of these often violent legacies.\nCo-presentation by Grace Mahoney (PhD candidate\, Slavic Languages & Literatures) and Felix Zamora-Gomez (PhD candidate\, Romance Languages & Literatures)\n\nComplete details here: http://ummsp.rackham.umich.edu/event/museum-narratives-and-transnational-reputations-history-state-legitimacy-and-contested-heritage-in-ukraine-and-spain/

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:The Old Globalization and the New Globalization
DESCRIPTION:Globalization isn’t dead\, but it increasingly has to do more with trading ideas and services than with moving metal containers stuffed with manufactured goods. This talk will discuss how globalization is changing and why. \nMarc Levinson is an independent historian\, economist\, and journalist whose career has centered on making complex economic issues understandable to the general public. Marc spent many years as an economic journalist\, including a turn as finance and economics editor of The Economist in London. Returning to New York\, he worked as an economist for J.P. Morgan Chase\, developing a unique industry economics function and then initiating the bank’s environmental research for stock and bond investors. He later served as a senior fellow at the Council on Foreign Relations. His books include the business classic The Box: How the Shipping Container Made the World Smaller and the World Economy Bigger\; The Great A&P and the Struggle for Small Business in America\, which won wide praise from across the political spectrum for exploring the tension between capitalism and competition in the U.S. economy\; and An Extraordinary Time\, showing how the sudden end of the postwar boom in the early 1970s led voters in many countries to turn away from activist government in favor of free-market ideas. He will be speaking about his latest book\, Outside the Box\, a lively history of globalization and its consequences.

DESCRIPTION:Minicolloquium Link: http://myumi.ch/AxgeZ\n\nMotivated by the exciting prospect of a new wealth of information arising from the first observations of gravitational and electromagnetic radiation from the same astrophysical phenomena\, the Dark Energy Survey (DES) has established a search and discovery program for the optical transients associated with LIGO/Virgo events (DESGW). Using the Dark Energy Camera (DECam)\, DESGW has contributed to the discovery of the optical transient associated with the neutron star merger GW170817\, and produced the first cosmological measurements using gravitational wave events as standard sirens. After three successful observing campaigns\, I present\, in this talk\, an overview of our results and their implications for the emerging field of multi-messenger cosmology with gravitational waves and optical data.\n

SUMMARY:Class / Instruction:Fall 2020 - AE285 Seminar Series\, Extreme Physiology: Engineering Meetings Physiology in Space
DESCRIPTION:Dr. Kathryn Clark\nAssociate Chair\, Movement Science\, School of Kinesiology\nAdjunct Associate Research Scientist\, Aerospace Engineering\n\nSpace enthusiasts have been talking about going to Mars since we launched the first astronauts into space.  We have not actually travelled very far from our home planet and we are only beginning to understand physiological changes and the potential for using science and engineering to overcome those challenges.  For example\, we know we on Earth are protected by the van Allen belts.  Can we find a way to protect astronauts who travel beyond the 36\,000 miles of van Allen belt coverage from the radiation?  Can we overcome the loss of blood cells\, muscle mass\, proprioception\, and immune system function?  Some of these are scientific questions\; others are engineering problems to solve.  NASA and her international partners must work together to solve these problems if we are ever to travel back to the Moon\, on to Mars\, and beyond.  This generation of scientists and engineers are going to be the people who overcome these challenges.  A side benefit is for people all over the world to overcome differences and work together on this greatest of adventures.\n\nAbout the speaker...\n\nDr. Kathy Clark is currently a Movement Science Lecturer in the University of Michigan School of Kinesiology. She received her Ph.D. in Kinesiology from the University of Michigan. Prior to her time at the school\, Dr. Clark was a member of the Stafford/Anfimov Advisory Panel and the Stafford-Covey Return to Flight Task Group at NASA. She also served as Chief Scientist at NASA for both the Human Exploration & Development of Space Enterprise and the International Space Station.\nDr. Clark is a professional speaker who uses her experience to motivate and inspire others to reach for the stars in their careers. She also works to promote education with groups like the Jean-Michel Cousteau Society\, the Square One Education Network\, the Argos Foundation\, the National Marine Sanctuaries\, the Sea World Hubbs Institute\, SAS Games\, the National Space Grant Foundation\, Arnold Schwarzenegger’s After School All Stars\, and the 27 Foundation.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Smith Lecture: Global Quieting of Anthropogenic\, High-Frequency Seismic Noise Due to COVID-19 Pandemic Lockdown Measures
DESCRIPTION:Zoom Meeting ID: 99893078888\nHuman activities causes high-frequency vibrations that propagate into the ground as seismic waves. \"Lockdown\" measures were enforced all around the world to mitigate the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic. The widespread changes in human activities had a direct impact on the environment\, for example with the reduction of air pollution or audible noise. It also led to a months-long reduction in seismic noise. The 2020 seismic noise quiet period is the longest and most prominent global anthropogenic seismic noise reduction on record. The reduction is strongest at surface seismometers in highly populated areas\, but this seismic quiescence extends for many kilometers radially and hundreds of meters in depth. This period provides an opportunity to detect subtle signals from subsurface seismic sources that would have been concealed in noisier times and to benchmark sources of anthropogenic noise. A strong correlation between seismic noise and independent measurements of human mobility suggests that seismology provides an absolute\, real-time estimate of human activities. The initial lockdown rules were usually immediate and strictest in the beginning. Then\, the lifting of the rules was more progressive. This could allow for studying and separating different noise sources. In this communication\, we will also shortly present the community behind this study\, the tools and ways we used to coordinate the analyses and to write the article.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Get Out the Vote: Empowering the Women's Vote
DESCRIPTION:Organized by AIGA in partnership with League of Women Voters\n\n2020 marks the centennial of the ratification of the 19th Amendment\, granting women the right to vote in 1920. 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. Giangiulio\, Annabelle Gould\, Brockett Horne\, Meena Khalili\, nicole killian + shawné michaelain holloway\, Karen Kurycki\, Marty Maxwell Lane\, Zuzana Licko\, Ana Llorente\, Beatriz Lozano\, Kelly Salchow MacArthur\, Rebeca Mendez\, Lana Rigsby\, Kaleena Sales\, Renee Seward\, Laurel Shoemaker\, Nancy Sklolos\,  Hannah Smotrich\, Shanti Sparrow\, Jennifer Sterling\, Fearn de Vicq\, Cymone Wilder\, and Lynne Yun.\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.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Honors Seminar Series: Ethan Kross
DESCRIPTION:On October 8\, 2013 Malala Yousafzai appeared on the Daily Show to talk about her harrowing experience surviving the Taliban’s attempt to assassinate her. At one point during the interview she described how she reacted when she discovered that the Taliban were planning to kill her. “I used to think that the Tali[ban] would come and he would just kill me\,” she told to Stewart. “But then I said\, if he comes\, what would you do Malala? Then I would reply to myself\, Malala just take a shoe and hit him…” \n\nMalala’s interview provides a window into the at times curious ways that we reflect on our lives. Although we all have an inner monologue that we engage in from time to time\, an inner voice that guides our moment-to-moment reflections\, people often report referring to themselves in strikingly different ways when they introspect. Whereas people typically use 1st person singular pronouns (e.g.\, I\, me\, my) to refer to themselves during introspection\, they at times also use their own name and other non-1st-person pronouns to refer to themselves as well. \n\nIn this talk\, Professor Ethan Kross will review findings from a growing body of psychological and neuroscience research\, which suggests that far from representing a simple quirk of speech\, engaging in such distanced self-talk enhances people’s ability to control their thoughts\, feelings and behavior under stress.\n\nYou can register here: https://myumi.ch/0W1Op

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Real and Imagined: Fabric Works and Video Animations by Heidi Kumao
DESCRIPTION:Stamps Gallery is pleased to present Real and Imagined: Fabric Works and Video Animations\, a solo exhibition of narrative fabric works and experimental animations by Stamps Professor Heidi Kumao.\n\nUsing fabric cutouts and machine and hand stitching on industrial felt\, Kumao gives physical form to the intangible dynamics underlying ordinary conversations and relationships from a feminist perspective. 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. We are unable to welcome the general public to this space at this time.

SUMMARY:Auditions:Respond / Resist / Rethink: A Stamps Poster & Video Exhibition
DESCRIPTION:Respond/ Resist/ Rethink: A Stamps Student Poster & Video Exhibition\n\nStamps Gallery is proud to kick-off the fall semester with Respond/ Resist/ Rethink: A Student Poster & Video Exhibition\, which brings together powerful posters and playful videos made by the students of Penny W. 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.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Economic Theory: Caution and Reference Effects (oint with Simone Cerreia-Vioglio and David Dillenberger)
DESCRIPTION:Abstract: \nWe establish a theoretical link between three phenomena at the core of behavioral economics: the Endowment Effect\, Loss Aversion\, and violations of Expected Utility as in the Certainty Effect. In our model\, all jointly stem from one single force: uncertainty about the utility function to use and caution. Behaviorally\, we show that our model is derived from positing a form of the certainty effect\, that we show implies both Loss Aversion and the Endowment Effect. We analyze further implications of our model and demonstrate how it can organize existing empirical evidence of the Endowment Effect\, and how it is conceptually and behaviorally distinct from other popular approaches\, e.g.\, Cumulative Prospect Theory.

SUMMARY:Auditions:Kelly M. Murdoch-Kitt: The People Beyond the Screen: Designing for human connection
DESCRIPTION:Designing for human connection and mutual respect are common threads in User Experience (UX) Designer Kelly Murdoch-Kitt’s projects explore how to improve the ways people work together. Moving beyond the user experience of the digital landscape\, Murdoch-Kitt examines ways that UX can aid in inclusivity and empowerment. Spanning many different disciplines\, Murdoch-Kitt’s recent projects have included process design for the improved care of heart patients\, an online platform that fosters cross-disciplinary collaboration in academia\, and a long-running research project on improved human connection between remote collaborators from different cultural backgrounds. Murdoch-Kitt and her research partner\, Associate Professor Denielle Emans\, PhD\, of Virginia Commonwealth University School of the Arts in Qatar\, have developed over 30 visual thinking activities dedicated to the task of initiating and sustaining collaborative intercultural work. Though the participants in their study have been design students based in the United States and Middle East\, they define the term intercultural collaboration more broadly — involving teams working across national borders\, but also across different fields of study\, professions\, cultures\, and social differences. These visual thinking activities\, alongside their framework for intercultural teamwork\, are the focus of their new book\, Intercultural Collaboration by Design: Drawing from Differences\, Distances\, and Disciplines through Visual Thinking\, published by Routledge in 2020.\n\nMurdoch-Kitt worked as a graphic designer in Raleigh\, North Carolina before completing her Master’s in Graphic Design at North Carolina State University. Prior to joining faculty at the Stamps School of Art & Design\, Murdoch-Kitt served as an Assistant Professor in the School of Design at the Rochester Institute of Technology. She also taught in the Graphic Design Programs at the University of San Francisco and California College of the Arts. Her excellence in teaching and contributions to service within the discipline have been recognized by the Design Incubation Communication Design Educator Awards. Originally from Richmond\, Virginia\, Murdoch-Kitt believes that growing up at an intersection of social inequities led her to explore ways that design could bring people together equitably.\n\nHow to Watch\n\nAll speaker series events will be webcast on Fridays at 8 pm EST at http://pennystampsevents.org and at https://www.dptv.org/programs/arts-culture/penny-stamps-series/ starting Friday\, September 18.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:\"Watch Me Work — Portraits of Self\"
DESCRIPTION:In *Watch Me Work — Portraits of Self*\, Detroit artist Sydney G. James brings to the forefront and celebrates the work of Black women. The USPS worker\, the artist\, the event-planning Zoom mom—the paintings in this exhibition reposition the narrative of black women’s visibility and value.

Artwork will be hung in the Washington and Thayer-street first floor windows of the Institute for the Humanities\, with two additional pieces visible through the gallery window on Thayer in a public celebration of these meaningful human relationships and connections.\n\nThis exhibition was made possible by a grant from The Andrew W. Mellon Foundation.

SUMMARY:Livestream / Virtual:Results or Roses: New and Assorted Works
DESCRIPTION:View the online gallery at https://sites.lsa.umich.edu/humanitiesgalleries/sarah-rose-sharp/\n\nResults or Roses: New and Assorted Works is a virtual exhibition by artist and writer Sarah Rose Sharp and part of the Institute for the Humanities' Andrew W. Mellon Foundation-funded \"High Stakes Art\" initiative. The exhibition of new and collected fiber-based art incorporates salvaged and found bits of cultural and fiber art that\, as she explains\, \"forms a discourse that is physical rather than textual.\"\n\nThanks to the grant from The Andrew W. Mellon Foundation\, we supported Sharp's work on Results and Roses during the summer of 2020\, but due to COVID-19 were forced to postpone the pop-up exhibition also scheduled for summer 2020. This fall we installed Results and Roses as a pop-up exhibition in the Osterman Common Room. Due to building security\, it's not open to the general public\, but we are thrilled to present the work online as a virtual exhibition. \n\nAbout the Artist\nSarah Rose Sharp is a Detroit-based writer\, activist\, photographer\, and multimedia artist. She writes about art and culture for Art in America\, Hyperallergic\, Flash Art\, Sculpture Magazine\, ArtSlant\, and others.

She is a guest lecturer at several universities in Southeast Michigan and served as a mentor in the NYFA Immigrant Artist Mentorship Program in 2018.

SUMMARY:Film Screening:John Lewis: Good Trouble (SOLD OUT)
DESCRIPTION:REDEMPTIONS ARE SOLD OUT! 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.

SUMMARY:Livestream / Virtual:CSAS | \"Engaging Anti-Caste Praxis Across Languages\,\" a Three-day Workshop for Writers\, Translators\, Publishers\, and their Readers
DESCRIPTION:Arun Mukherjee's public keynote speech will be held Friday\, November 13th at 9am (to coincide with Friday evening\, Indian Standard Time.) In ‘Reading the Americanized Joothan: The Translator’s Cringe’ Mukherjee will compare the Samya press and the Columbia University Press editions of her translation of Omprakash Valmiki’s autobiography\, Joothan. She will reflect on the changes which took place as the translation travelled from the Indian edition to the American edition\, leading her to realize the importance of guarding the beauty of the text. The event co-organizers Shalmali Jadhav\, Swarnim Khare and Christi Merrill are interested in asking what choices behind the scenes might lead to increasing openness when texts and cultural contexts displace us from our comfort zones as readers of anti-caste literatures.\n\nThis will be followed by three workshop sessions starting on November 13th and continuing on November 14th and 20th at 9am\, in which authors\, translators and publishers discuss pre-circulated published examples in English\, Hindi\, Marathi and Tamil with registered participants in order to demystify and make visible crucial choices in publishing translated work. Speakers include Ajay Navaria\, Alok Mukherjee\, Aniruddhan Vasudevan\, Anita Bharti\, Aruni Kashyap\, Arun Mukherjee\, G.N. Devy\, Laura Brueck\, Mandira Sen\, Maya Pandit\, Meena Kandasamy\, Perumal Murugan\, Sharankumar Limbale\, Susan Harris and Urmila Pawar. ’Advanced registration is required.\n\nThis conference is funded in part by a Title VI federal grant from the US Department of Education.\n\nIf you are a person with a disability who requires an accommodation to attend this event\, please reach out to us at csas@umich.edu at least 2 weeks in advance of this event.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:In-Between the World and Dreams
DESCRIPTION:In this multi-venue project led by the Institute for the Humanities\, in collaboration with the Charles H. 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.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Saturday Morning Physics VIRTUAL Event | The Light Fantastic
DESCRIPTION:Professor Alec Thomas will give a pre-recorded lecture with a \"live\" Q&A after the talk.\n\nYoutube Event Link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OGJg-eJF61c             (Link will be active at 10:30 am on 11/14/20.) See saturdaymorningphysics.org for more details.\n\nSince the invention of Chirped Pulse Amplification (Strickland and Mourou\, Physics Nobel 2018)\, lasers have become increasingly powerful by squeezing energy into inconceivably short pulses. The pulses of intense light produced by these lasers\, such as the new ZEUS facility being constructed at U-M\, can generate precision beams of high energy particles for new technologies\, produce the conditions of extreme astrophysical environments in the laboratory and create matter from (almost) nothing.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Collection Ensemble
DESCRIPTION:EXTRAORDINARY ARTISTS\, STARTLING WORKS OF ART\, PUT IN DIALOG FOR YOU TO DISCOVER \n \nCollection Ensemble presents the first major reinstallation of UMMA's iconic entry space in over a decade. 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!

Mellon Foundation-funded \"High Stakes Art\" initiative. The exhibition of new and collected fiber-based art incorporates salvaged and found bits of cultural and fiber art that\, as she explains\, \"forms a discourse that is physical rather than textual.\"\n\nThanks to the grant from The Andrew W. Mellon Foundation\, we supported Sharp's work on Results and Roses during the summer of 2020\, but due to COVID-19 were forced to postpone the pop-up exhibition also scheduled for summer 2020. This fall we installed Results and Roses as a pop-up exhibition in the Osterman Common Room. Due to building security\, it's not open to the general public\, but we are thrilled to present the work online as a virtual exhibition. \n\nAbout the Artist\nSarah Rose Sharp is a Detroit-based writer\, activist\, photographer\, and multimedia artist.

DESCRIPTION:REDEMPTIONS ARE SOLD OUT! 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.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:In-Between the World and Dreams
DESCRIPTION:In this multi-venue project led by the Institute for the Humanities\, in collaboration with the Charles H. 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.

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! This is a free event\, and all are welcome.\n\n

SUMMARY:Livestream / Virtual:Results or Roses: New and Assorted Works
DESCRIPTION:View the online gallery at https://sites.lsa.umich.edu/humanitiesgalleries/sarah-rose-sharp/\n\nResults or Roses: New and Assorted Works is a virtual exhibition by artist and writer Sarah Rose Sharp and part of the Institute for the Humanities' Andrew W. Mellon Foundation-funded \"High Stakes Art\" initiative. The exhibition of new and collected fiber-based art incorporates salvaged and found bits of cultural and fiber art that\, as she explains\, \"forms a discourse that is physical rather than textual.\"\n\nThanks to the grant from The Andrew W. Mellon Foundation\, we supported Sharp's work on Results and Roses during the summer of 2020\, but due to COVID-19 were forced to postpone the pop-up exhibition also scheduled for summer 2020. This fall we installed Results and Roses as a pop-up exhibition in the Osterman Common Room. Due to building security\, it's not open to the general public\, but we are thrilled to present the work online as a virtual exhibition. \n\nAbout the Artist\nSarah Rose Sharp is a Detroit-based writer\, activist\, photographer\, and multimedia artist. She writes about art and culture for Art in America\, Hyperallergic\, Flash Art\, Sculpture Magazine\, ArtSlant\, and others.

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.

DESCRIPTION:Free and open to the public – this is a virtual webinar on Zoom\n  Please register at https://umich.zoom.us/webinar/register/WN_VFRI4TtESPGTnsQ-jnBUvQ\n\nThe Functioning of Democracy across the Urban-Rural Spectrum\nThere is much talk\, especially in recent years\, about the urban-rural divide: the idea that people from urban and rural places think fundamentally differently about a whole range of policy issues\, and about governance itself.  This semester\, Ford School students have been analyzing data from previous iterations of the Michigan Public Policy Survey (MPPS)\, a survey of Michigan local government officials conducted annually since 2008 by the Center for Local\, State\, and Urban Policy (CLOSUP)\, to identify where there are and—importantly—are not differences along the urban-rural continuum. \n\nIn this virtual event\, these student researchers will share their research on the similarities and differences across the continuum with respect to:\n•	The state of civic discourse (Kyron Smith)\n•	Public participation in decision-making (Karley Thurston)\n•	Citizen engagement (Christian Hunter)\n•	Internet connectivity and access to information (Julie Rubin)\n•	Privatization of local government services (Kristina Curtiss)

SUMMARY:Conference / Symposium:Central Bank of the Future Conference: Building a Financial System for a More Inclusive Economy
DESCRIPTION:The University of Michigan's Center on Finance\, Law & Policy and the Federal Reserve Bank of San Francisco are co-hosting the second “Central Bank of the Future” Conference on Monday\, Tuesday\, and Wednesday\, November 16 – 18\, 2020. This event will be virtual\, open to the public\, and free to attend.\n\nThis event will build on the conference hosted last year by continuing to explore how central banks are evolving and their potential to foster greater financial and economic inclusion in the United States and worldwide. This year’s conference will examine how the three functions of a modern central bank could evolve to create a more inclusive financial system. Areas of exploration may include:\n\n•	How the functions of the modern central bank could shift to more \n        actively promote inclusion and address poverty\, rather than \n        responding to exclusion\,\n•	The potential for central banks to operate as new kinds of utilities \n        or direct service providers\,\n•	The value and challenge of extending the regulatory perimeter to \n        supervise new products\, services\, and networks\, and\n•	The role of technology and innovation within central banks to help \n        support both traditional and expanded functions.

SUMMARY:Presentation:Developmental Brown Bag:  The way “we” talk: Generic pronouns convey messages of togetherness
DESCRIPTION:Abstract:\nKey to a well-functioning society is having rules of conduct that apply to everyone. This becomes especially important in times of crisis\, when shared behaviors can protect the most vulnerable. How can we promote group norms over personal desires? In this talk I will present data from two studies showing that the generic pronouns “you” and “we” (“you/we always eat turkey at Thanksgiving”) might provide an effective way to convey such message. Adults and children (age 6-7 and 8-9) regard speakers using generic pronouns as conforming to group norms (Study 1) and showing greater compassion (Study 2) compared to speakers using specific pronouns (“I” or “she). These findings suggest that subtle shifts in the way “we” talk can dramatically change the message\, from one of selfishness to one of togetherness.

SUMMARY:Class / Instruction:Reason and Moral Values Made the West Great -- Now What?
DESCRIPTION:We will read and discuss The Right Side of History by Ben Shapiro. In his view\, many of the great accomplishments of the Western world are the result of Judeo-Christian values and the Greek-born power of reason. He traces the development of these attributes through history and shows how they created our modern society.\nBut now there are signs things are changing. The author argues that Western civilization is in a crisis of purpose and ideas. We have let grievances replace our sense of community\, allowed political expediency to limit individual rights and are ignoring the needy.\nHe talks about practical ways we can use our differences to regain our footing as a society. Gerry Lapidus has conducted OLLI book discussion classes since 2005. The Study Group meets on Mondays Nov. 16 to Dec. 14 from 1:00 to 3:00 p.m. Preregistration is required via the OLLI website or phone. A link to access this Study Group will be e-mailed to you approximately one week prior to the first session.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Get Out the Vote: Empowering the Women's Vote
DESCRIPTION:Organized by AIGA in partnership with League of Women Voters\n\n2020 marks the centennial of the ratification of the 19th Amendment\, granting women the right to vote in 1920. 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. Giangiulio\, Annabelle Gould\, Brockett Horne\, Meena Khalili\, nicole killian + shawné michaelain holloway\, Karen Kurycki\, Marty Maxwell Lane\, Zuzana Licko\, Ana Llorente\, Beatriz Lozano\, Kelly Salchow MacArthur\, Rebeca Mendez\, Lana Rigsby\, Kaleena Sales\, Renee Seward\, Laurel Shoemaker\, Nancy Sklolos\,  Hannah Smotrich\, Shanti Sparrow\, Jennifer Sterling\, Fearn de Vicq\, Cymone Wilder\, and Lynne Yun.\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.

SUMMARY:Auditions:Respond / Resist / Rethink: A Stamps Poster & Video Exhibition
DESCRIPTION:Respond/ Resist/ Rethink: A Stamps Student Poster & Video Exhibition\n\nStamps Gallery is proud to kick-off the fall semester with Respond/ Resist/ Rethink: A Student Poster & Video Exhibition\, which brings together powerful posters and playful videos made by the students of Penny W. 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.

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.

SUMMARY:Livestream / Virtual:Cognitive Science Seminar: Reinforcement Learning for Sparse-reward Object-interaction Tasks in a First-person Simulated 3D Environment
DESCRIPTION:Wilka Carvalho will give a talk titled \"Reinforcement Learning for Sparse-reward Object-interaction Tasks in a First-person Simulated 3D Environment\"\n\nABSTRACT\nLearning how to execute complex tasks involving multiple objects in a 3D world is challenging under any circumstances\, and especially so when there is no ground-truth information about how to use the objects or any opportunity to learn by demonstration. Rewards for completing a task in such a setting are few and far between (sparse rewards)\, making it difficult for the agent to figure out what to do next. In this work\, we show that these challenges can be overcome by including an auxiliary task: learning to predict how objects change upon interaction (the attentive object-model). We show that when this model is used to learn representations of objects\, the core learner (a relational RL agent) receives the dense training signal it needs to rapidly find a solution. We demonstrate results in the 3D AI2Thor simulated kitchen environment with a range of challenging food preparation tasks. We compare our method's performance to several related approaches and against the performance of an oracle: an agent that is supplied with ground-truth information about objects in the scene. We find that our model achieves performance closest to the oracle in terms of both learning speed and maximum success rate. With further analysis\, we also demonstrate that the attention model is key to the success of our method.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:HEP-Astro Seminar | Generic Objects of Dark Energy (GEODEs): Implications for Black Hole Evolution and Cosmology
DESCRIPTION:Please contact Beth Demkowski\, demkowsk@umich.edu for Zoom link.\n\nResolution of the averaging ambiguity in Friedmann cosmology has revealed that the interiors of ultrarelativistic objects are tightly coupled to cosmological dynamics. General relativity now predicts that measurable energy shifts\, like the well-known photon redshift\, occur in all material with equation of state magnitude greater than 0.01. Objects that mimic classical black holes\, but contain dark energy interiors (GEODEs)\, can undergo a pronounced cosmological blueshift. In particular\, each member of a GEODE population can gain energy proportional to the physical volume of the universe\, while the population itself disperses in volume with the cosmological expansion.The resulting physical dark energy density is constant in time\, mimicking a cosmological constant. Assuming that stellar collapse remnants realized by Nature are actually GEODEs\, we discuss the implications for quasar masses at high redshift and the black hole mass function as measured by LIGO at low redshift.\n

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:RNA Seminar featuring: Michelle Hastings\, Professor\, Rosalind Franklin University of Medicine and Science
DESCRIPTION:https://umich.zoom.us/webinar/register/WN_VWX5SY6lSiaNyh5Weh8cHw\n\nMichelle L. Hastings\, PhD \nProfessor\, Cell Biology and Anatomy\nDirector\, Center for Genetic Diseases\nRosalind Franklin University of Medicine and Science\n\nABSTRACT: Antisense oligonucleotides (ASOs) have proven to be an effective therapeutic platform for the treatment of disease. These short\, single-stranded\, modified nucleotides function by base-pairing with the complementary sequence of an RNA and modulating gene expression in a manner that is dependent on the ASO design and targeting site. We have used ASOs to normalize aberrant gene expression associated with a number of diseases of the nervous system including Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s disease and Usher syndrome. One of our approaches is under development for the treatment of CLN3 Batten disease\, a fatal\, pediatric lysosomal storage disease caused by mutations in a gene encoding the lysosomal membrane protein CLN3. The most common mutation associated with CLN3 Batten is a deletion of exons 7 and 8 (CLN3Δex78)\, which disrupts the mRNA open reading frame by creating a premature termination codon that results in the production of a truncated protein. We devised a therapeutic strategy for treating CLN3 Batten Disease using an ASO that basepairs to CLN3 pre-mRNA and alters splicing to correct the open reading frame of the mutated transcript. Treatment of CLN3Δex78 neonatal mice by intracerebroventricular injection of the ASO resulted in the desired splicing effect throughout the central nervous system\, improved motor deficits associated with the disease in mice\, reduced histopathological features of the disease in the brain and extended life in a severe mouse model of the disease. Our results demonstrate that ASO-mediated reading frame correction is a promising therapeutic approach for CLN3 Batten disease.\n\nKEYWORDS: pre-mRNA splicing\, Antisense oligonucleotides\, Usher syndrome\, Batten Disease\, lysosomal storage diseases

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Optimal Influenza Vaccine Distribution With Equity
DESCRIPTION:Influenza is a serious public health concern. Each year 5-15% of the world’s population is infected with influenza resulting in 3-5 million severe cases and 250\,000-500\,000 deaths. This presentation is concerned with the optimal influenza vaccine distribution in a heterogeneous population consisting of multiple subgroups. In our experiments\, each subgroup corresponds to a set of people within an age group living in a certain geographic area\, however the definition of subgroup is flexible. For example\, healthcare workers or nursing home residents can be considered as subgroups in real life policy decisions. To characterize the spread of influenza through interacting subgroups\, we employ an epidemic model that incorporates transmission dynamics and social distancing. The epidemic model is then coupled with a nonlinear mathematical program to find the critical vaccine allocation that minimizes vaccine usage. We also include an equity constraint to help public health authorities find a balanced vaccine allocation policy with respect to equity and effectiveness. Several detailed epidemic simulation models are developed in the literature to evaluate vaccination policies before their implementation so as to efficiently allocate resources. This study goes beyond evaluating a given vaccine allocation policy. The proposed approach can be utilized as a decision support tool to prescribe an equitable vaccine allocation policy to extinguish an emerging outbreak in its early stages. Furthermore\, the optimal objective function value of our model can inform public health authorities about the amount of vaccine stockpiles needed to stop future outbreaks. Our results indicate that consideration of group-specific transmission dynamics is paramount to the optimal distribution of influenza vaccines.\n\nShakiba Enayati is an Assistant Professor in Supply Chain and Analytics Department in the College of Business Administration at the University of Missouri- Saint Louis.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Raoul Wallenberg Lecture: Michael Kimmelman\, The New York Times
DESCRIPTION:Save the date for the Fall 2020 Raoul Wallenberg Lecture featuring Michael Kimmelman of the New York Times. Kimmelman's remarks\, in conversation with Dean Jonathan Massey\, will be followed by a public interview with Taubman College's Agora and Dimensions publications\, exploring the role of journalists in issues of racial justice\, social equity\, health\, and climate change in the context of the built environment.\n\nSince he returned to New York from Europe in the fall of 2011\, Michael Kimmelman has been the architecture critic of The New York Times. He has reported from more than 40 countries and twice been a finalist for the Pulitzer Prize. His work focuses on urban affairs\, public space\, housing for the poor\, infrastructure\, social equality and the environment\, as well as on design. A best-selling author\, he has won numerous awards over the years. The magazine New York titled an article about him “The People’s Critic.” In March 2014\, Mr. Kimmelman was given the Brendan Gill Prize for “insightful candor and continuous scrutiny of New York’s architectural environment\,” “that is journalism at its finest.\"\n\nFrom 2007 to 2011\, Mr. Kimmelman was based in Berlin\, covering Europe and the Middle East\, having devised the “Abroad” column. While there\, he reported on life under Hamas in Gaza\, the crackdown on culture in Putin’s Russia\, negritude in France and bullfighting in Spain\, among other subjects. He was previously The Times’s longtime chief art critic — “the most acute American art critic of his generation\,” according to the late Australian writer Robert Hughes.\n\nA graduate of Yale and Harvard\, adjunct professor at Columbia University and former Franke fellow at the Whitney Center for the Humanities at Yale\, he has contributed regularly to The New York Review of Books.\n\nThe Raoul Wallenberg Lecture was initiated in 1971 by Sol King\, a former classmate of Wallenberg's. An endowment was established in 1976 for an annual lecture to be offered in Raoul's honor on the theme of architecture as a humane social art.

SUMMARY:Livestream / Virtual:Results or Roses: New and Assorted Works
DESCRIPTION:View the online gallery at https://sites.lsa.umich.edu/humanitiesgalleries/sarah-rose-sharp/\n\nResults or Roses: New and Assorted Works is a virtual exhibition by artist and writer Sarah Rose Sharp and part of the Institute for the Humanities' Andrew W. Mellon Foundation-funded \"High Stakes Art\" initiative. The exhibition of new and collected fiber-based art incorporates salvaged and found bits of cultural and fiber art that\, as she explains\, \"forms a discourse that is physical rather than textual.\"\n\nThanks to the grant from The Andrew W. Mellon Foundation\, we supported Sharp's work on Results and Roses during the summer of 2020\, but due to COVID-19 were forced to postpone the pop-up exhibition also scheduled for summer 2020. This fall we installed Results and Roses as a pop-up exhibition in the Osterman Common Room. Due to building security\, it's not open to the general public\, but we are thrilled to present the work online as a virtual exhibition. \n\nAbout the Artist\nSarah Rose Sharp is a Detroit-based writer\, activist\, photographer\, and multimedia artist. She writes about art and culture for Art in America\, Hyperallergic\, Flash Art\, Sculpture Magazine\, ArtSlant\, and others.

She is a guest lecturer at several universities in Southeast Michigan and served as a mentor in the NYFA Immigrant Artist Mentorship Program in 2018. Sarah has served as guest curator and juror for institutions including Penn State University (State College\, PA)\, Scarab Club (Detroit\, MI)\, The Terhune Gallery (Toledo\, OH)\, and The Ann Arbor Art Center (Ann Arbor\, MI). Sarah has shown her own work in New York\, Seattle\, Columbus & Toledo\, OH\, Covington\, KY\, and Detroit—including at the Detroit Institute of Arts—with solo shows at Simone De Sousa Gallery and Public Pool.

DESCRIPTION:REDEMPTIONS ARE SOLD OUT! 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.

SUMMARY:Conference / Symposium:Global Health Supply Chain VIRTUAL Summit
DESCRIPTION:In its 13th year\, this international summit will focus on Global Health Supply Chain Resiliency – Preparedness\, Response\, and Recovery. COVID-19 has brought to light the fragility of global supply chains and challenges health systems have faced to address the new health needs arising from COVID-19 while continuing to address traditional health care needs. Clearly\, resiliency of supply chains and health systems is essential. Exploring the elements of resilient health supply chains will be the focus of GHSCS 2020. Resiliency can be achieved through supply chain design\, appropriate use of technology\, leveraging partnerships and establishing proper governance systems but all these depend on a deep understanding of the challenges faced by the workforce who will be called upon to execute on the resilience strategy and fill in the inevitable gaps. \n\nGHSCS 2020 will explore these issues through a combination of keynotes & plenary speakers\, panel discussions\, and contributed talks. Like in the past\, the conference has assembled a collection of experts in and from the field – academics\, country planners\, NGOs\, logistics practitioners\, industry and donor representatives to explore these topics. The committee is particularly interested in capturing the voices from the field to learn and share experiences related to managing supply chains for and during COVID-19.\n\n43 countries represented by registered attendees

SUMMARY:Careers / Jobs:Saga Education- Math Fellow Info Session
DESCRIPTION:Saga Education is a national nonprofit\, founded in 2014 and aimed to confront educational inequity to support historically under-servedschools and their students. Saga Education has dedicated itself to providing high-dosage\, in-school tutoring in partnership with public high schools. Since our founding\, Saga Education and our tutoring fellows have served over 12\,600 students across Chicago\, New York City\, Washington\, D.C\, and Broward County.\n\nNationwide\, students are experiencing a significant interruption in their formal education due to COVID-19 and resulting school closures.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Collection Ensemble
DESCRIPTION:EXTRAORDINARY ARTISTS\, STARTLING WORKS OF ART\, PUT IN DIALOG FOR YOU TO DISCOVER \n \nCollection Ensemble presents the first major reinstallation of UMMA's iconic entry space in over a decade. 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! This is a free event\, and all are welcome.\n\n

SUMMARY:Presentation:Biopsychology Colloquium:  Life history trade-offs as a balancing demographic mechanism for reproductive success during ecological adversity
DESCRIPTION:Life history trade-offs represent constrains in the life of organisms. However\, they can also contribute to balancing reproductive success. Here\, I analyze how chronic and acute ecological burdens affect the demography of Cayo Santiago rhesus macaques and propose life history trade-offs as a potential mechanism for maintaining fitness when experiencing ecological adversity. Specifically\, I decompose the effects of population density and hurricanes on population growth rate into survival and reproduction and quantify the life cycle transitions contributing the most to population fitness. My analysis shows that females exhibit a reduced reproductive output when experiencing these ecological adversities as a result of an overall decrease in mean age-specific fertility and a delay in sexual maturity. Yet\, these females exhibit the survival and lifetime reproductive success expected from other females that did not experience the same level of adversity in life.  My analysis supports trade-offs between survival and reproduction as a mechanism that allows females to suppress fertility during particular years and allocate more energy to growth or survival\, in order to ensure future reproductive potential.

SUMMARY:Conference / Symposium:Central Bank of the Future Conference: Building a Financial System for a More Inclusive Economy
DESCRIPTION:The University of Michigan's Center on Finance\, Law & Policy and the Federal Reserve Bank of San Francisco are co-hosting the second “Central Bank of the Future” Conference on Monday\, Tuesday\, and Wednesday\, November 16 – 18\, 2020. This event will be virtual\, open to the public\, and free to attend.\n\nThis event will build on the conference hosted last year by continuing to explore how central banks are evolving and their potential to foster greater financial and economic inclusion in the United States and worldwide. This year’s conference will examine how the three functions of a modern central bank could evolve to create a more inclusive financial system. Areas of exploration may include:\n\n•	How the functions of the modern central bank could shift to more \n        actively promote inclusion and address poverty\, rather than \n        responding to exclusion\,\n•	The potential for central banks to operate as new kinds of utilities \n        or direct service providers\,\n•	The value and challenge of extending the regulatory perimeter to \n        supervise new products\, services\, and networks\, and\n•	The role of technology and innovation within central banks to help \n        support both traditional and expanded functions.

SUMMARY:Livestream / Virtual:LRCCS Noon Lecture Series | Zoom Webinar: \"Constructing a China: Nationalism and Culture in Modern History\"
DESCRIPTION:The Fall 2020 lecture series will be only available on-line as a Zoom webinar. Registration link below.\n   \n   “What is the ‘Chinese way’? How should China’s traditions speak to its future?” During the past three decades\, China’s intellectuals have been increasingly preoccupied with defining the country’s cultural identity in its pursuit of political modernity. While their positions vary\, intellectuals share the assumption that there are unique elements to China’s historical and cultural institutions\, and that China’s future ought to be based on this legacy. This exceptionalist turn is unfolding at a time when the party-state is in search of a new ideology based on nationalism. Understanding this recent turn and its continued political force requires us to revisit the deeper roots of modern Chinese national thought. Diverging from the dominant view that modern Chinese nationalism is a product of Western-style modernization\, this talk explores how the quest for a Chinese cultural identity became central to debates over political and moral values. This century-long pattern can help to shed light on where China’s intellectual and political life is heading.\n   \n   Wen Yu is currently a Postdoctoral Fellow at the Lieberthal-Rogel Center for Chinese Studies at the University of Michigan. She received her PhD in History from Harvard University in 2018. Her research focuses on China’s social and political thought\, ideological movements\, and intellectual culture from the seventeenth century to the present. Her dissertation\, \"The Search for a Chinese Way in the Modern World: From the Rise of Evidential Learning to the Birth of Chinese Cultural Identity\,” explores the roots and development of modern Chinese exceptionalism by tracing how the search for a Chinese cultural identity has become central to the intellectual debates over shared values in modern China. Her dissertation was awarded the 2017 Harold K. Gross Dissertation Prize.\n\nZoom webinar registration (required) is here: https://umich.zoom.us/webinar/register/WN_I_97dhoFQ8e8YP-Om9ZctA

SUMMARY:Livestream / Virtual:Deploying CV2X Infrastructure - CCAT Research Review
DESCRIPTION:The final CCAT Research Review of 2020 will feature Associate Professor\, Gabor Orosz\, of the University of Michigan.\n\nThe focus of this research is the deployment of connected smart infrastructure on highway I-275 in SE Michigan. Researchers will collect and aggregate traffic information that can be used by connected vehicles traveling the corridor to improve their efficiency. The system consists of a set of road side units (RSU) which collect traffic data via vehicle-to-everything (CV2X) communication. Vehicles of different levels of automation may utilize the collected data when selecting their lane and controlling their longitudinal motion in order to maximize their fuel economy and minimize their travel time. The impact of these vehicles on the rest of the traffic flow is also being evaluated.\n\nAbout the speaker: Gabor Orosz received the MSc degree in Engineering Physics from the Budapest University of Technology\, Hungary\, in 2002 and the PhD degree in Engineering Mathematics from the University of Bristol\, UK\, in 2006. He held postdoctoral positions at the University of Exeter\, UK and at the University of California\, Santa Barbara. In 2010\, he joined the University of Michigan\, Ann Arbor where he is currently an Associate Professor in Mechanical Engineering and in Civil and Environmental Engineering. During 2017-2018 he was a Visiting Professor in Control and Dynamical Systems at the California Institute of Technology. His research interests include nonlinear dynamics and control\, time delay systems\, and reinforcement learning with applications to connected and automated vehicles\, traffic flow\, and biological networks. He served as the Program Chair of the 2015 IFAC Workshop on Time Delay Systems and served as the General Chair of the 2019 IAVSD Workshop on Dynamics of Road Vehicles: Connected and Automated Vehicles. Since 2018 he has been serving as an editor for the journal Transportation Research Part C.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Real and Imagined: Fabric Works and Video Animations by Heidi Kumao
DESCRIPTION:Stamps Gallery is pleased to present Real and Imagined: Fabric Works and Video Animations\, a solo exhibition of narrative fabric works and experimental animations by Stamps Professor Heidi Kumao.\n\nUsing fabric cutouts and machine and hand stitching on industrial felt\, Kumao gives physical form to the intangible dynamics underlying ordinary conversations and relationships from a feminist perspective. 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. We are unable to welcome the general public to this space at this time.

SUMMARY:Livestream / Virtual:Complex Systems Seminar Special Event |  Searching for the densest network that does not always synchronize
DESCRIPTION:PLEASE NOTE THE START TIME OF 2:30 PM!\n\nALSO NOTE\, THIS SEMINAR WILL BE RECORDED.\n\n                              SEMINAR LINK: myumi.ch/v2ZYv\n\nAbstract: Consider a network of identical phase oscillators with sinusoidal coupling. How likely are the oscillators to globally synchronize\, starting from random initial phases? One expects dense networks to have a strong tendency to synchronize and the basin of attraction for the synchronous state to be the whole phase space (except for a set of measure zero). But\, how dense is dense enough? In this (hopefully) entertaining Zoom talk\, we use techniques from nonlinear dynamics\, numerical linear algebra\, and computational algebraic geometry to derive the densest known networks that do *not* synchronize and the sparsest networks that do. This is joint work with Alex Townsend and Mike Stillman.\n\n___\n\nDr. Strogatz - Jacob Gould Schurman Professor of Applied Mathematics at Cornell University - is the author of several international bestsellers about math\, including \"Infinite Powers\" and \"The Joy of x\" - the latter\, the title of an eponymous column in the New York Times and a new podcast series for Quanta Magazine. \n\nWith a vast body of work he is particularly well known for his publications on the small-world effect\; understanding how thousands of fireflies flash in synchrony\; why London's Millenium Bridge became unstable in 2000 just two days after it opened\; and his mathematical model of\nromance -- the \"Romeo and Juliet\" model.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:PHD SEMINAR: \"Improving Veteran Access to Chronic Eye Disease Care\" — Adam VanDeusen
DESCRIPTION:This event is designed for U-M IOE PhD students and faculty and is also open to all U-M students\, faculty and staff.\n\nTitle:\nImproving Veteran Access to Chronic Eye Disease Care\n\nAbstract:\nAccess to healthcare is a critical public health issue in the United States\, especially for veterans. Veterans are older on average than the general U.S. population and are thus at higher risk for chronic disease. Further\, veterans report more delays when seeking healthcare. The Veterans Affairs (VA) Healthcare System continuously works to develop policies and technologies that aim to improve veteran access to care. Industrial engineering methods can be effective in analyzing the impact of such policies\, as well as designing or modifying systems to better align veteran patients’ needs with providers and resources.\n\nIn the talk\, I will focus on veteran access to chronic eye disease screening. Ophthalmologists in the VA have developed a platform in which ophthalmic technicians screen patients for major chronic eye diseases during primary care visits. We use mixed-integer programming-based facility location models to understand how the VA can determine which clinics should offer eye screenings\, which provider type(s) should staff those clinics\, and how to distribute patients among clinics. The results of this work show how the VA can achieve various objectives including minimizing the cost of treating a given population or maximizing the number of patients receiving care given a fixed budget.\n\nBio:\nAdam VanDeusen is a PhD candidate in Industrial and Operations Engineering at the University of Michigan working under Dr. Amy Cohn. His work applies operations research and systems engineering methods to public health policy and access to healthcare. As part of his graduate training\, Adam works with the University of Michigan Center for Healthcare Engineering & Patient Safety (CHEPS). Adam completed his undergraduate degree in Industrial and Operations Engineering at the University of Michigan and his Master of Public Health in Chronic Disease Epidemiology from Yale School of Public Health. Prior to his PhD\, Adam worked as the Senior Director of Clinical Programs at the Health Management Academy and as a Health Systems Engineer at Mayo Clinic.

SUMMARY:Presentation:Neuroimaging Interest Group Talk Series:  I can hear what you see
DESCRIPTION:Almost one-quarter of the brain is normally devoted to processing visual information: reading text\, recognizing faces\, following the Sunday football match\, and much more. The brain’s visual cortex contains specialized regions devoted to processing motion\, text\, faces etc. In congenitally blind individuals\, much of the ‘visual’ cortex responds strongly to auditory and tactile input rather than to visual stimuli\, a phenomenon known as cross-modal plasticity. Here I will discuss what our laboratory has discovered about the representation of sound in early blind individuals\, and what this reveals about the plasticity of the human brain.\n\nMeeting ID: 970 5999 8818  \nSee Zoom Link Below

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Professor Bing Zhou\, Donald A. Glaser Collegiate Professorship in Physics\, Inaugural Lecture
DESCRIPTION:Advances in physics research rely heavily on innovations of new technology and detector development. Invention of the bubble chamber by Donald A. Glaser\, a Michigan faculty who won the 1960 Nobel Prize in physics\, enabled discoveries of many new particles (resonances)\, which set the experimental foundation of building the quark model. Over the past five decades from bubble chamber to wire chamber\, the particle detector size grew from a table-top box to a football field\, such as the ATLAS detector at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC). In modern particle experiments\, thousands of physicists and engineers worldwide work together to build the most powerful microscopes to study particle physics at the most fundamental level to unlock the mysteries in nature. With an outstanding Michigan team\, we designed\, built\, and operated the largest precision muon detector for the ATLAS experiment at the LHC over the past twenty years. This detector is crucial for the Higgs boson discovery in 2012\, which was regarded as a scientific breakthrough in particle physics. The discovery opened a new window for research into the properties of the Higgs boson and the electroweak symmetry breaking mechanism\, which has unique significance for the dynamics of the Standard Model of particle physics and stretches the horizons of even the most ambitious future-collider proposal.\n\nHi there\,\n\nYou are invited to a Zoom webinar.\nWhen: Nov 17\, 2020 04:00 PM Eastern Time (US and Canada)\nTopic: Professor Bing Zhou\, the Donald A.

SUMMARY:Livestream / Virtual:Nam Center Colloquium Series | Singing Beyond the Ivory Gates: South Korean Song Movement in the 1980s
DESCRIPTION:Please note: This session will be held virtually EST through Zoom. This webinar is free and open to the public\, but registration is required. Once you've registered the joining information will be sent to your email.\n\nRegister at:\n\nhttp://myumi.ch/qgd0y\n\nIn the 1980s\, noraep’ae [song clubs] operated as hubs for creating\, performing\, and disseminating some of the most popular protest songs against the military authoritarian regimes in South Korea. During college campus rallies\, labor strikes\, and public protests on the streets\, songs written and performed by noraep’ae became instrumental in fostering solidarity across regional and class divides. This talk examines the evolution of noraep’ae and their significance in the South Korean song movement\, analyzing in turn how singing enables a politics of participation and democratization of the voice.\n\nSusan Hwang is Assistant Professor of Contemporary Korean Literature and Cultural Studies in the Department of East Asian Languages and Cultures at Indiana University. Her scholarship engages with the cultural practices of resistance and dissent in South Korea\, as well as theories of translation and world literature. She is currently working on her book manuscript entitled “Uncaged Songs: Culture and Politics of Protest Music in South Korea.\" It is a cultural history of South Korea’s song movement that charts how songs became a powerful component of the struggle for democracy in South Korea during two of the nation’s darkest decades—the 1970s and the 1980s.

SUMMARY:Livestream / Virtual:Stearns Collection Lecture: Making and Modeling Electronic and Virtual Instruments\, John Granzow
DESCRIPTION:part of the Virginia Martin Howard Lecture Series\n\nJOHN GRANZOW  Assistant Professor of Music (Performing Arts Technology)\nVirtual Reality (VR) and digital fabrication technologies today are ushering in a new wave of opportunities in instrument design to bring otherwise implausible instruments to life or support virtual counterparts to irreplaceable and fragile instruments housed in museums and  collections. In the latter case\, we aim to resynthesize both the sound of a  rare instrument as well as the audio visual experience of playing it in a virtual space. The Stearns Instrument Collection at the University of Michigan has served as an invaluable resource for this research. In this seminar I will discuss electrophones of interest in the collection that give rise to persisting issues of interaction design as well as research conducted with Dr. Anıl Çamcı (Performing Arts Technology\, SMTD) where instruments in the collection are scanned and modeled for virtual interaction. \n\nWatch at http://myumi.ch/dOPbx

SUMMARY:Exhibition:\"Watch Me Work — Portraits of Self\"
DESCRIPTION:In *Watch Me Work — Portraits of Self*\, Detroit artist Sydney G. James brings to the forefront and celebrates the work of Black women. The USPS worker\, the artist\, the event-planning Zoom mom—the paintings in this exhibition reposition the narrative of black women’s visibility and value. Each portrait honors the individual and collective contributions and labors of Black women\, persistent through the pandemics\, through police violence\, and whether seen or unseen.\n\nWith the Gallery closed to the public due to COVID\, *Watch Me Work* will be completely visible from the street. Artwork will be hung in the Washington and Thayer-street first floor windows of the Institute for the Humanities\, with two additional pieces visible through the gallery window on Thayer in a public celebration of these meaningful human relationships and connections.\n\nThis exhibition was made possible by a grant from The Andrew W. Mellon Foundation.

SUMMARY:Livestream / Virtual:Results or Roses: New and Assorted Works
DESCRIPTION:View the online gallery at https://sites.lsa.umich.edu/humanitiesgalleries/sarah-rose-sharp/\n\nResults or Roses: New and Assorted Works is a virtual exhibition by artist and writer Sarah Rose Sharp and part of the Institute for the Humanities' Andrew W. Mellon Foundation-funded \"High Stakes Art\" initiative. The exhibition of new and collected fiber-based art incorporates salvaged and found bits of cultural and fiber art that\, as she explains\, \"forms a discourse that is physical rather than textual.\"\n\nThanks to the grant from The Andrew W. Mellon Foundation\, we supported Sharp's work on Results and Roses during the summer of 2020\, but due to COVID-19 were forced to postpone the pop-up exhibition also scheduled for summer 2020. This fall we installed Results and Roses as a pop-up exhibition in the Osterman Common Room. Due to building security\, it's not open to the general public\, but we are thrilled to present the work online as a virtual exhibition. \n\nAbout the Artist\nSarah Rose Sharp is a Detroit-based writer\, activist\, photographer\, and multimedia artist. She writes about art and culture for Art in America\, Hyperallergic\, Flash Art\, Sculpture Magazine\, ArtSlant\, and others.

She is a guest lecturer at several universities in Southeast Michigan and served as a mentor in the NYFA Immigrant Artist Mentorship Program in 2018.

DESCRIPTION:REDEMPTIONS ARE SOLD OUT! 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.

SUMMARY:Conference / Symposium:Global Health Supply Chain VIRTUAL Summit
DESCRIPTION:In its 13th year\, this international summit will focus on Global Health Supply Chain Resiliency – Preparedness\, Response\, and Recovery. COVID-19 has brought to light the fragility of global supply chains and challenges health systems have faced to address the new health needs arising from COVID-19 while continuing to address traditional health care needs. Clearly\, resiliency of supply chains and health systems is essential. Exploring the elements of resilient health supply chains will be the focus of GHSCS 2020. Resiliency can be achieved through supply chain design\, appropriate use of technology\, leveraging partnerships and establishing proper governance systems but all these depend on a deep understanding of the challenges faced by the workforce who will be called upon to execute on the resilience strategy and fill in the inevitable gaps. \n\nGHSCS 2020 will explore these issues through a combination of keynotes & plenary speakers\, panel discussions\, and contributed talks. Like in the past\, the conference has assembled a collection of experts in and from the field – academics\, country planners\, NGOs\, logistics practitioners\, industry and donor representatives to explore these topics. The committee is particularly interested in capturing the voices from the field to learn and share experiences related to managing supply chains for and during COVID-19.\n\n43 countries represented by registered attendees

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Collection Ensemble
DESCRIPTION:EXTRAORDINARY ARTISTS\, STARTLING WORKS OF ART\, PUT IN DIALOG FOR YOU TO DISCOVER \n \nCollection Ensemble presents the first major reinstallation of UMMA's iconic entry space in over a decade. 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! This is a free event\, and all are welcome.\n\n

SUMMARY:Livestream / Virtual:CAS Webinar | The Lebanonization of Armenians
DESCRIPTION:Please register in advance for the webinar here: http://myumi.ch/51Gxd\n\n   After registration\, you will receive a confirmation email with instructions on how to join the webinar.\n   \n   This talk tells a post-genocide history of power. Dr. Nalbantian discusses how an absence of a national homeland accepted by all Armenians did not translate into a lack of political life. Focusing on the Armenian Diaspora of Lebanon\, Dr. Nalbantian shows how by the 1950s\, Armenians were firmly part of and ensconced in Lebanese politics. Armenians’ (re)-positioning vis-à-vis Lebanon’s imminent post-colonial independence in the mid-1940s included a fair share of double-entendres\, tensions\, and contrasts. Lebanese Armenians were divided along the right-left fault lines that divided Lebanese politics and society in general – they\, Nalbantian argues\, were Lebanonized. At the same time\, the Lebanese state was somehow Armenianized\, as it started to pay more attention to Armenian matters than before. For example\, the state directly intervened with military force in Armenian neighborhoods to end the internecine Armenian confrontation in December 1958. Armenian parties participated in and contributed to the considerable political tensions in Lebanon\, simultaneously\, they used their position within the Lebanese political system to jostle for power within the Armenian community.

SUMMARY:Conference / Symposium:Central Bank of the Future Conference: Building a Financial System for a More Inclusive Economy
DESCRIPTION:The University of Michigan's Center on Finance\, Law & Policy and the Federal Reserve Bank of San Francisco are co-hosting the second “Central Bank of the Future” Conference on Monday\, Tuesday\, and Wednesday\, November 16 – 18\, 2020. This event will be virtual\, open to the public\, and free to attend.\n\nThis event will build on the conference hosted last year by continuing to explore how central banks are evolving and their potential to foster greater financial and economic inclusion in the United States and worldwide. This year’s conference will examine how the three functions of a modern central bank could evolve to create a more inclusive financial system. Areas of exploration may include:\n\n•	How the functions of the modern central bank could shift to more \n        actively promote inclusion and address poverty\, rather than \n        responding to exclusion\,\n•	The potential for central banks to operate as new kinds of utilities \n        or direct service providers\,\n•	The value and challenge of extending the regulatory perimeter to \n        supervise new products\, services\, and networks\, and\n•	The role of technology and innovation within central banks to help \n        support both traditional and expanded functions.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:CREES Noon Lecture. Someone Else’s Problems: The Dissident Author Post-Dissidence
DESCRIPTION:Postwar literature in Central and Eastern Europe\, particularly as it has been framed in Western Europe and North America\, has been shaped by strong personalities whose exile from their respective homelands helped enshroud their critiques of authoritarianism in so-called “moral authority.” But in quitting the Soviet Union\, Poland\, or Czechoslovakia for new lives in countries like the United States and France\, these writers often found themselves in the midst of sociopolitical upheavals whose terms they scarcely understood and to whose contexts their own struggles offered no clear analogy. This talk reevaluates the Western careers of four of the most prominent authors to whom such “moral authority” has been generally ascribed—Alexander Solzhenitsyn\, Joseph Brodsky\, Czesław Miłosz\, and Milan Kundera—against the backdrop of the struggle for civil rights and racial justice in their adopted countries.\n\nBenjamin Paloff is the author of *Lost in the Shadow of the Word (Space\, Time\, and Freedom in Interwar Eastern Europe)*—named the 2018 Best Book in Literary Studies by AATSEEL—and of the poetry collections *And His Orchestra* (2015) and *The Politics* (2011). He has translated nearly a dozen books\, most recently Dorota Masłowska’s *Honey\, I Killed the Cats*\, and has been awarded fellowships from the National Endowment for the Arts (twice\, in poetry and in translation)\, the US Fulbright Programs\, the Stanford Humanities Center\, and the PEN/Heim Translation Fund\, among others. He is associate professor of Slavic languages and literatures and of comparative literature at the University of Michigan\, where he also serves as acting director of the Copernicus Center for Polish Studies.\n\nRegistration is required for this Zoom webinar at http://myumi.ch/DE70Z.\n\nIf you are a person with a disability who requires an accommodation to attend this event\, please reach out to weisercenter@umich.edu at least 2 weeks in advance of this event. Please be aware that advance notice is necessary as some accommodations may require more time for the university to arrange.

We currently have over $2.7 billion in assets under management across 7 funds\, and have made over 100 investments in middle market business since we were founded in 2001. The key to our success has been a focused operational strategy that is based on working with\, learning from\, and developing exceptional people. This central component of our strategy has resulted in the establishment of Alpine’s PeopleFirst™ program\, which supports the passionate individuals who are the key drivers ofsuccess in building enduring companies. \n\n\nOUR INTERNSHIP PROGRAMS\nAlpine believes in empowering and developing young leaders. We currently offer two summer internship programs for juniors entering senior year— one program on the Investing team and one on the Sourcing team. Interns are anintegral part of the deal teams at Alpine and throughout the summers. We believe in giving interns ownership and responsibility early\, so they candrive real impact and maximize their learning. \n \nSome of the highlights of our internship programs include: two weeks of robust onboarding with financial modeling\, technical training\, practice expert calls\, unique culture workshops\, real deal work\, bonding/social activities\, business school case studies led by our founding partner and GSB professor\, Graham Weaver\, and more!\n \nInvesting Summer Program.\nThe primary responsibility of the investing intern is to assess potential investment opportunitiesfor Alpine’s fund. This entails proactively analyzing industries and individual companies\, identifying key trends and risks\, and highlighting attractive areas for investment. As deal processes “go live\,” the investing interns play a critical role on the deal team as they assist with various components of the deal process\, including company visits and diligence meetings with business executives.\n \nThe investing internship is most appropriate for those who wish to learn about the entire deal process\, from initial evaluation and negotiation\, through due diligence and comprehensive quantitative analyses\, to completing the transaction.

Sourcing is a critical function within private equity\, as it is the tip of the spear and life blood for all other activities within a firm. The more proactive we can be in finding prospective deals\, the more opportunities we have to choose from in order to reach the best investment decisions. Interns will learn to source opportunities through multiple channels\, including investment banks\, business brokers\, and direct outreach to target companies. They will learn how to learn to navigate Alpine’s target industries\, analyze prospective deals\, improve their financial acumen\, and hone their dynamic communication skills.\n \nThe sourcing internship is most appropriate for someone that is motivated by utilizing metrics\, driving key search tactics\,and building impactful relationships. Individuals should be excited abouta role where they are regularly on the phone\, own proactive outreach\, get to learn about and research industries/trends\, and drive meetings witha range of external stakeholders.\n

SUMMARY:Livestream / Virtual:Shoulda\, Coulda\, Woulda: Moving Beyond Personal Failure and Actively Cultivating a More Equitable Academy
DESCRIPTION:Systems of higher education in the United States create differential advantage and disadvantage for the people who work and learn in them. When individuals move through these systems—as administrators\, instructors\, or learners—they make choices to participate in the perpetuation or the disruption of these inequities. While some perpetuation of inequity can be attributed to ignorance\, it is often true that individuals who do understand the harmful impacts of unjust behavior\, processes\, and structures often fail to address them. This session centers around an embodied case study depicting one man’s meditation on a personal failure and the choices he made afterward that defined his path as an educator. Through session activities\, participants will reflect on what failures of this kind indicate about the educational environments in which they occur and how such reflection might prime them to reshape the spaces in which they have responsibilities.\nIn this session\, participants will:\n\nReflect on their personal failures to act for justice.\nConsider how their lived relationship to social inequities within and outside of their educational environment shape their willingness and ability to act.\nExplore the tension between risk and responsibility when disrupting the status quo.\nPractice identifying opportunities for proactive justice work in their spheres of influence in the academy.\n\nThis workshop is designed for graduate students and postdoctoral fellows. For faculty and staff\, please contact RackhamEvents@umich.edu to see if we can accommodate your attendance.\nRegistration is required at https://myumi.ch/NxVlB.\nWe want to ensure full and equitable participation in our events. If an accommodation would promote your full participation in this event\, please follow the registration link to indicate your accommodation requirements. Please let us know as soon as possible in order to have adequate time (one week preferred) to arrange for your requested accommodation(s) or an effective alternative.

SUMMARY:Presentation:Social Brown Bag:
DESCRIPTION:Martha Berg\n\nTitle:\nContextualizing Moral Reasoning: How Close Relationships Shape Responses to Moral Transgressions\n\nAbstract: \nConsider the following scenario—you witness your friend steal a laptop at a cafe and a police officer asks whether you saw anything. How would you respond? What makes situations like these so vexing is that they pit two fundamental drives against one another: protecting those we love versus abiding by universal rules that govern society. Yet the overwhelming majority of research in moral psychology has ignored the influence of relationships\, focusing instead on how people respond to the immoral acts of strangers. In this talk\, I will review findings from an integrative program of research that demonstrates how close relationships powerfully shape the way people respond to moral transgressions. First\, I will review research indicating that people are much more likely to protect close (vs. distant) others who act immorally\, particularly when the acts they observe are severe. Next\, I will address how cultural norms can influence the saw relationships have on moral reasoning. Finally\, I will present initial work exploring how relationships between transgressor and victim influence the victim’s response. Together\, these findings underscore the importance of taking context into account when studying moral reasoning.\n\n\nZach Reese\n\nTitle: \nCompetition within Relationships\n\nAbstract: \nPeople in the U.S. strive for achievement\, individuality\, and glory while simultaneously striving to build and maintain close relationships. What happens when our desire to be \"top dog\" conflicts with our desire to support our loved ones? In this presentation\, I will discuss several studies examining the roles competition and dominance play in our close relationships.

SUMMARY:Presentation:From Sky Surveys to Cancer: Spatial Data Everywhere
DESCRIPTION:The talk describes a 25 year journey leading from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey to a wide range of projects in data science. There are many common threads: the need for extreme interactivity\, the need for flexible data aggregation and the commonality of spatial data. The size of data sets have grown almost a million fold\, but user expectations for almost instant results has not changed. The talk will describe the gradual evolution of the SciServer\, and how new interactive metaphors to interact with hundreds of terabytes of turbulence simulations emerged. We will discuss how machine learning and AI tools are transforming science\, from simulations to how large experiments are designed and executed. We will also emphasize that much of these new developments still rely on having unique high value data sets at our fingertips\, and how the long term survival of these is entering a critical\, endangered phase.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Dignifying the Disinherited: The Case for Pro-Black Engineering Education Research
DESCRIPTION:Research is essential to the infrastructure of education and plays a prominent role in driving curriculum\, policy\, and professional practice. Therefore\, engineering education research (EER) is critical to driving the impetus and approach to racial equity within engineering education and practice. This presentation will spotlight how anti-Blackness is embedded in EER practices and delineate its roots in America’s systemic racism. Centering the experience of Black people within the engineering education community helps reframe the problem of racial/ethnic exclusion\, while generating a new way forward through pro-Black EER (PEER). PEER uses critical methodologies\, frameworks\, and intentional citation practices to assert the genius of Black people.

SUMMARY:Livestream / Virtual:DCMB / CCMB Weekly Seminar
DESCRIPTION:Abstract: Genetic variation affecting gene expression is wide-spread within and among species. This variation reflects the combined actions of mutation introducing new genetic variants and selection eliminating deleterious ones. Comparative studies of gene expression in fruit flies\, yeast\, plants\, and mice have shown that the relative contributions of cis- and trans-acting variants to expression differences change over evolutionary time\, indicating that selection has different effects on cis- and trans-regulatory variants. To better understand the reasons for this now widely observed pattern\, we have been systematically studying the effects of mutation and selection on expression of the TDH3 gene of the baker’s yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae. This work has revealed differences between cis- and trans-regulatory mutations in their frequency\, effects\, and dominance. Differences in pleiotropy are also generally assumed to exist between cis- and trans-regulatory that affect their evolutionary fate\, but have been difficult to measure. In this talk\, I will discuss how newly arising cis- and trans-regulatory mutations affecting expression of this focal gene are structured within the regulatory network\, their pleiotropic effects on expression of all other genes in the genome\, and how these pleiotropic effects influence fitness. A computational model of regulatory evolution integrating empirically observed differences in properties of cis- and trans-regulatory mutations will also be presented and discussed.\n\nPatricia Wittkopp received a BS from the University of Michigan\, a PhD from the University of Wisconsin\, and did postdoctoral work at Cornell University. In 2005\, she began a faculty position at the University of Michigan\, where she is now the Sally L. Allen Collegiate Professor and  Arthur F Thurnau Professor in the Department of Ecology and Evolutionary Biology and the Department of Molecular\, Cellular\, and Developmental Biology\, and is a member of the Center for Computational Medicine and Bioinformatics. Her research investigates the genetic basis of phenotypic evolution\, with an emphasis on the evolution of gene expression.  She was a Damon Runyon Cancer Research Fellow\, an Alfred P Sloan Research Fellow\, Guggenheim Fellow\, and a recipient of a March of Dimes Starter Scholar Award\, the Margaret Dayhoff Mid-Career Award from the Society of Molecular Biology and Evolution\, and the Friedrich Wilhelm Bessel Research Award from the Alexander von Humboldt Foundation.\n\nhttps://umich-health.zoom.us/j/93929606089?pwd=SHh6R1FOQm8xMThRemdxTEFMWWpVdz09

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Department Colloquium | Catching and Reversing a Quantum Jump Mid-Flight
DESCRIPTION:Department Colloquium Link: http://myumi.ch/GkgBm\n\nMeasurements in quantum physics\, unlike their classical physics counterparts\, can fundamentally yield discrete and random results. Historically\, Niels Bohr was the first to hypothesize that quantum jumps occurred between two discrete energy levels of an atom. Experimentally\, quantum jumps were directly observed many decades later in an atomic ion driven by a weak deterministic force under strong continuous energy measurement. The times at which the discontinuous jump transitions occur are reputed to be fundamentally unpredictable. Despite the non-deterministic character of quantum physics\, is it possible to know if a quantum jump is about to occur? Our work1 provides a positive answer to this question: we experimentally show that the jump from the ground state to an excited state of a superconducting artificial three-level atom can be tracked as it follows a predictable “flight” by monitoring the population of an auxiliary energy level coupled to the ground state. The experimental results demonstrate that the evolution of the jump — once completed — is continuous\, coherent\, and deterministic. Based on these insights and aided by real-time monitoring and feedback\, we then pinpoint and reverse one such quantum jump “mid-flight”\, thus deterministically preventing its completion. Our findings\, which agree with theoretical predictions essentially without adjustable parameters\, lend support to the modern formulation of quantum trajectory theory\; most importantly\, they may provide new ground for the exploration of real-time intervention techniques in the control of quantum systems\, such as the early detection of error syndromes.\n\n1.	Z. Minev et al.\, Nature 570\,  200–204 (2019)\n\nShort Bio:\n\nMichel Devoret graduated from Ecole Nationale Superieure des Telecommunications in Paris in 1975 and started graduate work in molecular quantum physics at the University of Orsay. He then joined Professor Anatole Abragam's laboratory in CEA-Saclay to work on NMR in solid hydrogen\, and received his PhD from Paris University in 1982. He spent two post-doctoral years working on macroscopic quantum tunneling with John Clarke's laboratory at the University of California\, Berkeley. He pursued this research on quantum mechanical electronics upon his return to Saclay\, starting his own research group with Daniel Esteve and Cristian Urbina. The main achievements of the \"quantronics group\" were in this period the measurement of the traversal time of tunneling\, the invention of the single electron pump (now the basis of a new standard of capacitance)\, the first measurement of the effect of atomic valence on the conductance of a single atom\, and the first observation of the Ramsey fringes of a superconducting artificial atom (quantronium). He became director of research at the Commissariat a l'Energie Atomique (CEA) at Saclay. In 2007\, Michel has been appointed to the College de France\, where he taught until 2012. He is a member of the American Academy of Arts and Sciences (2003) and a member of  the French Academy of Sciences (2008). Michel has received the Ampere Prize of the French Academy of Science (together with Daniel Esteve\, 1991)\, the Descartes-Huygens Prize of the Royal Academy of Science of the Netherlands (1996) and the Europhysics-Agilent Prize of the European Physical Society (together with Daniel Esteve\, Hans Mooij and Yasunobu Nakamura\, 2004). He is also a recipient of the John Stewart Bell Prize\, which he received jointly with Rob Schoelkopf in 2013. In 2014\, he has been awarded\, together with John Martinis and Rob Schoelkopf\, the Fritz London Memorial Prize. He received the Olli Lounaasma Prize in 2016. \n\nCurrently the F. W. Beinecke Professor of Applied Physics at Yale University -- which he joined in 2002 -- he focuses his research on experimental solid state physics with emphasis on quantum mechanical electronics (a.k.a. \"quantronics\") for quantum information processing. In this new type of electronics\, electrical collective degrees of freedom like currents and voltages behave quantum mechanically. Such mesoscopic phenomena are particularly important in quantum circuits based on Josephson junctions\, which is his main research goal. He currently focuses on the new phenomena of fault-tolerant quantum operations and remote entanglement.\n\n\n

DESCRIPTION:Abstract:   In recent years great progress has been made in the study of dispersive and wave equations. Over the years the toolbox used in order to attack highly nontrivial problems related to these equations has developed to include a variety of techniques from Fourier and harmonic analysis\, analytic number theory\, math physics\, dynamical systems\, probability and symplectic geometry. In this talk I will introduce a variety of problems connected with dispersive and wave equations\, such as the derivation of a certain nonlinear Schrodinger equation from a quantum many-particles system\, periodic Strichartz estimates\, the concept of energy transfer\, the invariance of a Gibbs measure associated to an infinite dimension Hamiltonian system and non-squeezing theorems for such systems when they also enjoy a symplectic structure.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Michael Beauregard Seminar in Macroeconomics: Why does capital flow from equal to unequal countries?
DESCRIPTION:Abstract:\nCapital flows from equal to unequal countries. We document this empirical regularity in a large sample of advanced economies. The capital flows are largely driven by private savings. We propose a theory that can rationalize these findings: more unequal countries endogenously develop deeper financial markets. Households in unequal counties\, in turn\, borrow more\, driving the observed direction of capital flows.\n\n* To join the seminar\, please contact at econ.events@umich.edu

She soon discovers that Frank is gay\, and living with his longtime partner Walid “Wally” Nadeem (Peter Macdissi) -- an arrangement that he has kept secret for years. After the sudden death of Frank's father -- Beth’s grandfather -- Frank is forced to reluctantly return home for the funeral with Beth in tow\, and to finally face a long-buried trauma that he has spent his entire adult life running away from.\nWriter-director Alan Ball’s heartfelt and hilarious road movie travels from the bohemian scene of post-Stonewall New York City to rural South Carolina\, following Frank’s painful journey from hitting rock bottom to acceptance and forgiveness and\, finally\, reintegration into his family and into life itself. Bettany reveals Frank’s fragile core by peeling away the layers of Frank’s sophisticated but guarded persona. Sophia Lillis plays Beth as a naive but observant young woman whose eyes are opened to a world she could never have imagined. Peter Macdissi also has a standout performance as Wally\, a man whose capacity for compassion runs deeper than he even knows. Ball (known for his ensemble TV work on Six Feet Under and True Blood) also elicits strong turns from his superb supporting cast\, including Stephen Root\, Margo Martindale\, Steve Zahn\, Judy Greer and Lois Smith.
