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.

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.

The University of Michigan and its employees have not been insulated from accusations. In the midst of several high-profile allegations\, the University instituted a mandatory university-wide online education program in the summer of 2019\, “Cultivating a Culture of Respect: Sexual Harassment and Misconduct Awareness.” The training\, opening with a variety of university leaders\, highlights culture creation and collective respect as necessary components of an inclusive\, equitable institution. \n \nThis presentation provides preliminary findings from a survey the team administered in May 2020 to a random sample of staff and faculty across the UM campuses. We focus on two aspects of data in particular\, the level of awareness of #MeToo movement among staff and faculty\, and how the movement is viewed by respondents as shaping their own attitudes and behaviors. Our data show that employees believe they can identify problematic behaviors and know where to report them\, and demonstrate a high level of confidence in university procedures. However\, these responses are in juxtaposition to a university culture facing significant challenges. Who is responsible for changing institutional culture? How does cultural change happen in an institution where individuals already believe they are performing appropriately and equitably? \n\nThis event is presented by the Initiative on Gender-Based Violence and Sexual Harassment at IRWG.

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.

Generous individuals have also given thousands of pounds of personal care items\, from diapers to toothbrushes.\n\nThe donation drive started in March\, as part of Michigan Medicine’s effort to gather much-needed personal protective equipment during the early days of the pandemic when normal supply chains were disrupted.\n\nSince that time\, Food Gatherers’ partners have experienced a consistent surge in demand from people affected by the economic effects of the pandemic. Uncertainty over the future of federal and state relief efforts is making planning difficult.

As capabilities continue to advance\, robots with many joints offer the potential to execute more nuanced\, sophisticated tasks than simpler mechanisms. However\, the curse of dimensionality can place prohibitive costs in time and resources in order to control and refine such behaviors. In this work\, we investigated the role of system geometry in addressing these challenges. Geometric mechanics offers a framework to generalize intuitive features\, like friction and inertia\, into broad categories of robots that experience the same functional forms relating momentum\, internal shape motions\, and body motions. We focused on friction-dominated robots\, where we could see that the vanishing role of momentum reduces the dynamics from a second order to a first order system. Subsequent architectural simplifications in behavior modeling\, planning\, and control resulted in robots that were capable of rapidly self-modeling and optimizing useful behaviors. We demonstrated on a simulated robotic snake that during joint failure\, the system was able to adapt more quickly when it was equipped with more motorized joints. In this case\, dimensionality was an asset\, rather than a liability. Additionally\, we demonstrated that the methods use no prior knowledge about system kinematics by building a robot made of tree branches. This system was able to optimize a library of primitives for navigation\, training on less than 12 minutes of experimental data. Finally we showed that these methods can extend to both soft robots and systems with momentum. This defense will cover our findings concerning the practical applications of data-driven geometric mechanics.

At first\, they stick to the standard fare: Did you always know you would be a writer? How autobiographical are your books? Have you written any stories you would never publish? Usually his answers in these situations are measured\, calculated\, cautious. But this time\, when his heart is about to break and his life is about to crumble\, he finds he cannot tell anything but the truth. The naked\, funny\, sad\, scandalous\, politically incorrect truth.\n\nEvery question the writer tackles opens a door to a hidden room of his life. Each of his answers reveals that at the heart of every truth there is a lie–and vice versa. Surprising\, bold\, intimate\, and utterly engrossing\, The Last Interview shows just how tenuous the lines are between work and life\; love and hate\; fact and fiction. And in exploring the many\, often contradictory\, facets of an Israeli author’s identity\, Eshkol Nevo also gives us a nuanced\, thought-provoking portrait of a country at odds with itself.\n\nEshkol Nevo is one of Israel’s most successful living writers\, whose novels have all been bestsellers in Israel and published widely in translation. Nevo grew up in Jerusalem\, Haifa\, and Detroit. He is the grandson of Israeli Prime Minister Levi Eshkol\, for whom he was named.

In this presentation\, I will first talk about RNA tail modification which impacts viral and cellular gene expression. We found that TENT4 enzymes extend poly(A) tail of mRNAs with ‘mixed tails’ to delay deadenylation and stabilize the RNAs. Hepatitis B virus and human cytomegalovirus hijack this mechanism to efficiently stabilize their own RNAs. In the later part of my presentation\, I will discuss our recent work on SARS-CoV-2. To delineate the viral transcriptomic architecture and provide a high-resolution map of SARS-CoV-2\, we performed deep sequencing of infected cells. Our data define the canonical transcripts and noncanonical transcripts encoding unknown ORFs. More recently\, we have also performed proteomic analyses of the SARS-CoV-2 ribonucleoprotein complex. We identify many proteins that directly interact with viral RNAs and modulate viral growth. Functional investigation of the viral transcripts and host proteins discovered in this study will open new directions to the research efforts to elucidate the life cycle and pathogenicity of SARS-CoV-2.

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.

But this one comes amid a surging pandemic\, an economic downturn\, and a looming deadline for continuation of federal financial relief.\n\nAll of these have created intense need in communities surrounding Michigan Medicine. In response\, the University of Michigan’s academic medical center will launch a third effort to encourage its own team\, and the local community\, to give food and funds to support Food Gatherers.\n\nStarting December 14\, and continuing through the 22nd\, this will include a convenient drive-up drop-off location for food and toiletries\, open to U-M faculty\, staff and students\, and members of the community in a position to give. It's located at Dock 90 of the North Campus Research Complex\, just off Huron Parkway.\n\nDonors may give online via credit card\, or get information about giving by mail or phone\, at http://www.foodgatherers.org/UM.\n\nAlready this year\, donors to Michigan Medicine’s previous two drives have contributed the equivalent of 128\,000 meals for Food Gatherers to distribute to more than 170 agencies that serve people throughout Washtenaw County and beyond. Generous individuals have also given thousands of pounds of personal care items\, from diapers to toothbrushes.\n\nThe donation drive started in March\, as part of Michigan Medicine’s effort to gather much-needed personal protective equipment during the early days of the pandemic when normal supply chains were disrupted.\n\nSince that time\, Food Gatherers’ partners have experienced a consistent surge in demand from people affected by the economic effects of the pandemic. Uncertainty over the future of federal and state relief efforts is making planning difficult.

The link will be provided below.\n\nZoom link: https://umich-health.zoom.us/j/94668154127\n\nThrombosis is a process whereby a blood clot forms in situ within a vessel and impedes flow. Although necessary to maintain hemostasis\, the human thrombotic system often becomes unstable leading to scenarios of thrombosis and subsequent diseases such as myocardial infarction\, stroke\, pulmonary embolism\, and deep vein thrombosis. Computational modeling is a powerful tool to understand the complexity of thrombosis initiation and provides both temporal and spatial resolution that cannot be obtained in vivo. The goal of this investigation is to develop a computational model of thrombosis initiation in patient-specific models that includes both a complex description of the hemodynamics and biochemistry of thrombin formation. We argue that the complex hemodynamics occurring in vivo significantly alter the initiation and progression of thrombosis.\n\n \n\nWhile blood viscosity is known to exhibit nonlinear behavior\, a Newtonian assumption is often employed in computational analyses. This assumption is valid in healthy arteries where shear rates are high and recirculation is low. However\, in pathological geometries\, such as aneurysms\, and venous geometries\, this assumption fails\, and nonlinear viscous effects become exceedingly important. Previous computational models of thrombosis have investigated coagulation through chemistry based formulations focusing on protein dynamics but have generally excluded complex 3D hemodynamics.\n\n \n\nA computational framework was developed to investigate the interplay between 3D hemodynamics and the biochemical reactions involved in thrombosis initiation in patient-specific models under transient flow. The salient features of the framework are: i) nonlinear rheological models of blood flow\; ii) a stabilized numerical framework for scalar mass transport\; and iii) a computational interface for nonlinear scalar models of protein dynamics that can be easily customized to include an arbitrary number of species and protein interactions.\n\n \n\nWe implemented and verified nonlinear rheological models of viscosity into CRIMSON and investigated the effects of non-Newtonian viscosity on both hemodynamic and transport metrics in an arterial and venous patient-specific model. Results demonstrated the importance of considering accurate rheological models.\n\n \n\nA stabilized finite element (FE) framework was developed to solve scalar mass transport problems in CRIMSON. Simulation of cardiovascular scalar mass transport problems offers significant numerical challenges such as highly advective flows and flow reversal at outlet boundaries. Furthermore\, little attention has been given to the identification of appropriate outflow boundary conditions that preserve the accuracy of the solution. These issues were resolved by developing a stabilized FE framework that incorporates backflow stabilization for Neumann outlet boundaries\; a consistent flux boundary condition that minimally disturbs the local physics of the problem\; and front-capturing stabilization to regularize solutions in high Pe number flows. The efficacy of these formulations was investigated for both idealized and patient-specific geometries.\n\n \n\nNext\, a flexible arbitrary reaction-advection-diffusion (ARAD) interface was implemented that enables prototyping nonlinear biochemical models of thrombin generation. After verifying the ARAD interface\, the performance was compared against the original hardcoded FORTRAN implementation for speed and accuracy using a 4-scalar nonlinear reaction model of thrombosis. Three different biochemical models of thrombin generation were investigated in idealized geometries. Finally\, we implemented the 18 scalar model in both idealized and patient-specific geometries to determine the effects of complex 3D hemodynamics on thrombin generation.\n\n \n\nThe computational framework for thrombosis initiation presented in this work has three key features: i) non-Newtonian hemodynamics\; ii) a stabilized numerical framework for scalar RAD problems\; and iii) a method to rapidly prototype custom reaction models using Python with negligible associated computational expense.\n\nChair: Prof. Alberto C.

As leading publishers and editors\, they helped chronicle modernity as it was experienced by Sephardic Jews across the Ottoman Empire. The wars of the twentieth century\, however\, redrew the borders around them\, in the process transforming the Levys from Ottomans to Greeks. Family members soon moved across boundaries and hemispheres\, stretching the familial diaspora from Greece to Western Europe\, Israel\, Brazil\, and India. In time\, the Holocaust nearly eviscerated the clan\, eradicating whole branches of the family tree.\n\nNamed one of the best books of 2019 by The Economist and a New York Times Book Review Editors’ Choice. A National Jewish Book Award finalist.\n\nSarah Abrevaya Stein is the Sady and Ludwig Kahn Director of the Alan D. Leve Center for Jewish Studies\, and holds the Viterbi Family Chair in Mediterranean Jewish Studies at UCLA. She is the author or editor of many books\, including \"Extraterritorial Dreams: European Citizenship\, Sephardi Jews\, and the Ottoman Twentieth Century\" and \"Plumes: Ostrich Feathers\, Jews\, and a Lost World of Global Commerce.\" The recipient of the Sami Rohr Prize for Jewish Literature\, three National Endowment for the Humanities Fellowships\, a Guggenheim Fellowship\, and two National Jewish Book Awards\, Stein lives with her family in Santa Monica\, CA.\n\nMore Information: https://book.jccannarbor.org/schedule/family-papers-a-sephardic-journey-through-the-twentieth-century/\nRegister Online: https://operations.daxko.com/Online/4088/ProgramsV2/OfferingDetails.mvc?program_id=TMP29837&offering_id=SES698917&location_id=B368 UID:79120-20209858@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/79120 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Jewish Studies,Literature LOCATION:Off Campus Location CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20201106T121713 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20201216T000000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20201216T235900 SUMMARY:Exhibition:\"Watch Me Work — Portraits of Self\" DESCRIPTION:In *Watch Me Work — Portraits of Self*\, Detroit artist Sydney G.

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.

But this one comes amid a surging pandemic\, an economic downturn\, and a looming deadline for continuation of federal financial relief.\n\nAll of these have created intense need in communities surrounding Michigan Medicine. In response\, the University of Michigan’s academic medical center will launch a third effort to encourage its own team\, and the local community\, to give food and funds to support Food Gatherers.\n\nStarting December 14\, and continuing through the 22nd\, this will include a convenient drive-up drop-off location for food and toiletries\, open to U-M faculty\, staff and students\, and members of the community in a position to give. It's located at Dock 90 of the North Campus Research Complex\, just off Huron Parkway.\n\nDonors may give online via credit card\, or get information about giving by mail or phone\, at http://www.foodgatherers.org/UM.\n\nAlready this year\, donors to Michigan Medicine’s previous two drives have contributed the equivalent of 128\,000 meals for Food Gatherers to distribute to more than 170 agencies that serve people throughout Washtenaw County and beyond. Generous individuals have also given thousands of pounds of personal care items\, from diapers to toothbrushes.\n\nThe donation drive started in March\, as part of Michigan Medicine’s effort to gather much-needed personal protective equipment during the early days of the pandemic when normal supply chains were disrupted.\n\nSince that time\, Food Gatherers’ partners have experienced a consistent surge in demand from people affected by the economic effects of the pandemic.

However\, if particles are light and weakly-coupled\, this focus may be completely misguided: light particles are typically highly collimated around the beam line\, allowing sensitive searches with small detectors\, and even extremely weakly-coupled particles may be produced in large numbers there. The recently approved FASER experiment will use the opportunity and extend the LHC's physic potential by searching for long-lived particles and studying neutrino interactions at TeV energies. In this talk\, I will present the physics potential of FASER for new physics searches\, neutrino physics\, QCD as well as cosmic ray and cosmic neutrino measurement\, aiming to stimulate a fruitful discussion with my audience.
