As such\, the personal is political\, and bodies are subject to political interpretations. Body politics based on racial (and/or ethnic) ascriptions (along with other intersecting elements such as sex\, gender\, sexuality\, age\, social class\, ability\, etc.) have adversely affected the overall health and wellness of bodies of Color in general\, and Black bodies in particular - impacting their abilities\, opportunities\, access (inclusion/exclusion)\, care/treatment\, and the overall nature of their lived experiences. Consequently\, racialed body politics have contributed to an array of health disparities being more pronounced in communities of Color. However\, movement offers a variety of health benefits and is therefore\, a source of empowerment for racially politicized bodies.\n\nThis event will feature a keynote presentation by Dr. Monique Butler\, U-M Kinesiology alumna and Chief Medical Officer for HCA Healthcare North Florida Division. She will address the theme \"Where Do We Go From Here: Body Politics and Movement Towards Racial Empowerment.\"\n\nThis event is sponsored by the U-M Health Sciences units and hosted by the School of Kinesiology.

She has written two books\, Sacrificing Soldiers on the National Mall\, a study of militarism\, race\, war memorials and U.S. nationalism and Carried to the Wall: American Memory and the Vietnam Veterans Memorial\, an exploration of public memorial practices and the legacies of the Vietnam War. She is at work on her next book\, Blunt Instruments: A short field guide to a long history of everyday racist infrastructure in the United States. She lectures\, teaches\, and writes about nationalism\, memory\, publics\, memorialization\, militarization\, visual culture and material culture studies. She holds a Ph.D. in American studies and has worked in a number of historical museums\, including the National Museum of American History. She was also the co-founder and Associate Director of Imagining America: Artists and Scholars in Public Life\, a national consortium of educators and activists dedicated to campus-community collaborations.\n \nMitch Landrieu was the 61st Mayor of New Orleans (2010-2018). When he took office\, the city was still recovering from Hurricane Katrina and in the midst of the BP Oil Spill.  Under Landrieu's leadership\, New Orleans is widely recognized as one of the nation’s great comeback stories.\n \nIn 2015\, Landrieu was named “Public Official of the Year” by Governing\, and in 2016 was voted “America’s top turnaround mayor” in a Politico survey of mayors. He gained national prominence for his powerful decision to take down four Confederate monuments in New Orleans\, which also earned him the prestigious John F. Kennedy Profile in Courage Award. In his New York Times best-selling book\, In the Shadow of Statues: A White Southerner Confronts History\, Landrieu recounts his personal journey confronting racism\, and tackles the broader history of slavery\, race relations\, and institutional inequalities that still plague America.\n \nHe recently launched the E Pluribus Unum Fund\, which will work to bring people together across the South around the issues of race\, equity\, economic opportunity and violence. Prior to serving as Mayor\, Landrieu served two terms as lieutenant governor and 16 years in the state legislature. He also served as President of the U.S. Conference of Mayors.\n \nNoted social historian\, award-winning author\, and educational leader\, Earl Lewis\, is the founding director of the University of Michigan Center for Social Solutions. Also the Thomas C. Holt Distinguished University Professor of History\, Afroamerican and African Studies\, and public policy\, Lewis is president emeritus of The Andrew W. Mellon Foundation (2013-18)\, one of the premier philanthropies supporting the arts\, humanities\, and higher education. At Michigan\, Lewis and colleagues in the center are addressing four core areas of social concern: diversity and race\, slavery and its aftermath\, water and security\, and the dignity of labor in an automated world. Prior to returning to Michigan and before leading the Mellon Foundation\, he served as the Executive Vice President for Academic Affairs and Provost at Emory University as well as the Asa Griggs Candler Professor of History and African American Studies (2004-2012). Lewis was previously on the faculty at the University of Michigan (1989-2004) and the University of California at Berkeley (1984-1989). In addition to professorial roles and titles (Robin D.G. Kelley and Elsa Barkley Brown Collegiate Professor)\, he served Michigan as Vice Provost and Dean of the Rackham School of Graduate Studies (1998-2004).\n \nAs a scholar and leader in higher education and philanthropy\, he has examined and addressed critical questions for our society including the role of race in American history\, diversity\, equity and inclusion\, graduate education\, humanities scholarship\, and universities and their larger communities. A frequent lecturer\, he has authored or edited nine books\, scores of essays\, articles and comments\, and along with Robin D.G. Kelley served as general editor of the eleven-volume Young Oxford History of African Americans. He currently partners with Nancy Cantor in editing the Our Compelling Interests book series. That effort\, published in partnership with Princeton University Press\, investigates how diversity pairs with democracy to enhance the likelihood of shared prosperity. A member of numerous boards of directors or trustees\, he was an Obama administration appointee to the National Advisory Committee on Institutional Quality and Integrity\, and is outgoing chair of the board of regents at Concordia College-Moorhead\, vice chair of the board of the Educational Testing Service\, and a past president of the Organization of American Historians.\n \nChristina Olsen is the director of the University of Michigan’s Museum of Art and co-director of the University of Michigan Arts Initiative.

DESCRIPTION:In everyday conversations we frequently hear such comments as “That is just politics\,” and “Two things I do not discuss are religion and politics.” Political scientists\, philosophers and historians have attempted to define politics from many different viewpoints. In addition\, many types of politics\, such as electoral politics\, office politics\, and partisan politics\, are often analyzed. \n\nThe study group will aim to engage participants in defining politics\, discussing public attitudes toward politics\, and assessing why politics is such an important part of the human condition. \n\nStudy group leader Craig Ramsay taught political science at the college level for almost forty years.\n\nThis study group will meet Mondays for six weeks beginning on January 18. Preregistration is required via the OLLI website or phone. A link to access the study group will be e-mailed to you approximately one week prior to the first session.

She will give a talk titled \"Uneven success: racial bias in automatic speech recognition.\" \n\nThe event will take place on Zoom and is open to the public. A reception will follow (see separate link).\n\nABSTRACT\nRacial bias in automatic speech recognition is an emerging area of concern in fields associated with human-computer interaction. Research to date suggests that sociolinguistic variation\, namely systematic sources of sociophonetic variation\, has yet to be extensively exploited in Acoustic Model architectures. This talk reports a study that evaluates the performance of one ASR system for a multi-ethnic sample of speakers from the American Pacific Northwest (including Native American\, African American\, European American and ChicanX speakers). Using a sociophonetic approach to characterizing vocalic and consonantal variation\, I ask which dialect features appear to be most challenging for our ASR system. We also ask which error types are particular to the four ethnic dialects sampled. Recordings of both conversational and read speech were coded for a common set of 18 sociophonetic variables with distinct phonetic profiles. Automatic transcription was achieved using CLOx\, a custom-built ASR system created in the University of Washington Sociolinguistics Laboratory. Normalized error frequency rates (Nf) are compared across ethnic group samples to evaluate CLOx performance. Nf error rates demonstrate clear differential performance in the ASR system\, pointing to racial bias in system output. Specific predictions are made regarding approaches that might be taken to leverage sociophonetic knowledge to improve sociolect-recognition accuracy in ASR systems.

The first challenge is quantity. For example\, nearly 2.7K new papers are published at PubMed per day. This knowledge bottleneck causes significant delay in the development of vaccines and drugs for COVID-19. The second challenge is quality due to the rise and rapid\, extensive publications of preprint manuscripts without pre-publication peer review. Many research results about coronavirus from different research labs and sources are redundant\, complementary or event conflicting with each other.\n\nLet’s consider drug repurposing as a case study. Besides the long process of clinical trial and biomedical experiments\, another major cause for the long process is the complexity of the problem involved and the difficulty in drug discovery in general. The current clinical trials for drug re-purposing mainly rely on symptoms by considering drugs that can treat diseases with similar symptoms. However\, there are too many drug candidates and too much misinformation published from multiple sources. In addition to a ranked list of drugs\, clinicians and scientists also aim to gain new insights into the underlying molecular cellular mechanisms on Covid-19\, and which pre-existing conditions may affect the mortality and severity of this disease.\n\nTo tackle these two challenges\, we have developed a novel and comprehensive knowledge discovery framework\, COVID-KG\, to accelerate scientific discovery and build a bridge between clinicians and biology scientists. COVID-KG starts by reading existing papers to build multimedia knowledge graphs (KGs)\, in which nodes are entities/concepts and edges represent relations involving these entities\, extracted from both text and images. Given the KGs enriched with path ranking and evidence mining\, COVID-KG answers natural language questions effectively. Using drug repurposing as a case study\, for 11 typical questions that human experts aim to explore\, we integrate our techniques to generate a comprehensive report for each candidate drug. Preliminary assessment by expert clinicians and medical school students show our generated reports are informative and sound. I will also talk about our ongoing work to extend this framework to other domains including molecular synthesis and agriculture.\n\nBio:\n\nHeng Ji is a professor at Computer Science Department\, and an affiliated faculty member at Electrical and Computer Engineering Department of University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign.

Here\, we developed a pipeline to discover functions of ASD-associated genes by inactivating each gene in the model organism Caenorhabditis elegans and observing the phenotypic consequences using machine vision. We quantified 26 phenotypes spanning morphology\, locomotion\, tactile sensitivity\, and learning in >27\,000 animals representing 135 genotypes\, allowing us to identify disruptions in habituation (a neural circuits plastic ability to decrease responding to repeated sensory stimuli) as a shared impairment. Next\, we used CRISPR-Cas9 auxin inducible degradation to determine that habituation impairments caused by developmental loss of the sole C. elegans ortholog of vertebrate neuroligins can be reversed by adult-specific re-expression. We are now using this phenotypic database to rapidly test whether phenotypic disruptions in several other ASD-associated genes are reversible in adulthood. This work charts the phenotypic landscape of ASD-associated genes and will prioritize reversible candidates for further study and therapeutic development.

In this talk\, I will explore our current knowledge of neutrino oscillations\, and discuss how the next generation of experiments can further enlighten us.

We study the effect of these differences on the misallocation of talent. To do so we first show that selection into the labor force is positive\, namely\, the hgiher the barrier the more able the women who work and then use personnel data of a global MNE to estimate a structural model of pay setting within the firm\, allowing the parameters to respond to local conditions. We show that the average ability of women in the workforce is higher than men’s and the ratio is largest where LFP is lower. We quantify the role of social norms and discuss policy alternatives\n\nFor information on how to watch this lecture and sign up for the SBEE mailing list to receive notice of upcoming events\, please visit the SBEE website: \nhttps://umbee.github.io/SBEE_Seminars UID:80593-20759751@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/80593 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Economics,seminar LOCATION:Off Campus Location CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20210127T075003 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20210120T140000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20210120T153000 SUMMARY:Meeting:CoderSpaces (Wednesdays) DESCRIPTION:Are you grappling with a piece of code\, trying to compute on a cluster\, or just getting started with a new method such as machine learning?

DESCRIPTION:Department Colloquium Link: http://myumi.ch/GkgBm\n\nThe Hubbard model\, first formulated by physicist John Hubbard in the 1960s\, is a simple theoretical model of interacting quantum particles in a lattice. The model is thought to capture the essential physics of high-temperature superconductors\, magnetic insulators\, and other complex emergent quantum many-body ground states. Although the Hubbard model is greatly simplified as a representation of most real materials\, it has nevertheless proved difficult to solve accurately except in the one-dimensional case. Physical realization of the Hubbard model in two or three dimensions\, which can act as quantum simulators\, therefore have a vital role to play in solving the strong-correlation puzzle. In this talk\, I will discuss a potential experimental realization of the two-dimensional triangular lattice Hubbard model in angle-aligned heterobilayers of semiconducting transition metal dichalcogenides\, which form moiré superlattices because of the difference in lattice constant between the two semiconductors. \n UID:80613-20763720@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/80613 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Physics,Science LOCATION:Off Campus Location CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20210204T123047 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20210120T160000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20210120T170000 SUMMARY:Careers / Jobs:PPD Resume Workshop DESCRIPTION:Spend some time with recruiting professionals\, Susan Harrington and Logan Murphy\, to learn about the major do’s and don’ts of building a resume.

While it was a signature of defeat for the Ottoman Empire\, it was the beginning of a new period for the Ottoman Armenians and other non-dominant groups such as Greeks and Jews. Yet\, the history of the Armistice period has been mostly absent in the existing academic literature. In this lecture\, Dr. Şekeryan will analyze the social and political developments regarding the Ottoman Armenian community in Istanbul by utilizing the Ottoman Turkish and Armenian press sources. The lecture will discuss the political transformation within the Armenian community during the Armistice years and then contextualize this transformation within the framework of ethnic bargaining theory to understand how the Ottoman Armenian community organized itself while facing political turmoil.\n \n Ari Şekeryan received his PhD from the University of Oxford in 2018. His thesis\, titled \"The Armenians in the Ottoman Empire after the First World War (1918-1923)\,\" bridges the disciplines of history\, international relations\, and area studies by analyzing the minority-majority relations in the final years of the Ottoman Empire\, primarily focusing on the relations between the Armenians and Turks. His research was grounded in detailed archival research conducted at the library of the Armenian Mekhitarist Congregation in Vienna\, Austria\; the Prime Minister’s Ottoman Archives in Istanbul\, Turkey\; and the National Library of Yerevan\, Armenia. He edited \"The Adana Massacre 1909: Three Reports and An Anthology of Armenian Literature 1913.\" His latest articles appeared in the British Journal of Middle Eastern Studies\, Turkish Studies\, the Journal of the Ottoman and Turkish Studies Association\, and War in History. Dr. Şekeryan was a fellow at the Institute for Research in the Humanities at the University of Wisconsin-Madison in 2019 and the Kazan Visiting Professor in Armenian Studies at California State University\, Fresno during Spring 2020.\n \nIf there is anything we can do to make this event accessible to you\, please contact us.

Using them\, scientists are probing some of the most exotic phenomena in the Universe. Insights from discoveries made so far\, including some surprising new objects\, will be presented\, along with the potential for new discoveries that will make gravitational waves essential to the next century of astronomy and cosmology.\n\nOur speaker\, Professor Keith Riles\, has carried out research in both experimental particle physics and gravitational wave physics. As a charter member of the LIGO Scientific Collaboration (LSC)\, founded in 1997\, he initially led the LIGO detector characterization group and more recently has led searches for continuous gravitational waves from galactic neutron stars. His group at the University of\nMichigan hunts for signals from waves ten thousand times weaker than the first gravitational waves detected in September 2015. \n\nThis is the second of a six-lecture series. The subject of the series is Advances in Science. The next lecture will be on January 28\, 2021. The title is Answered and Unanswered Questions in Particle Physics\nLearn from well-known experts about an array of interesting subjects\, with an interactive Q&A period following each lecture.\n\nPreregistration is required via the OLLI website or phone. A link to access the lecture will be e-mailed to you approximately one week prior to the first session.

But we do not know the extent to which plants and animals shift their ranges in response to changing climates. Using the fossil pollen and mammal records\, we explore how rapidly biomes transition in response to changing climates and to what extent human impacts prevent species from tracking their preferred climate. We have found that plants and animals will need to traverse broad landscapes at unprecedented rates to track climate as it changes\, and I have identified strategic regions to target for facilitating this connectivity. However\, we also have found that not all species exhibit the same human tolerance or climate fidelity (i.e.\, some species’ ranges are less affected by climate than others). My lab and I found that 67% of mammals have shifted their climatic niche\, mostly in the last 500 years. Interestingly many small mammals have actually expanded their climatic niches into agricultural and urban landscapes\, suggesting that humans facilitate their survival. Whereas most large mammals have been extirpated from human-impacted landscapes. We are now working to identify the climate fidelity that plant and animal taxa have exhibited over the last 20\,000 years. Our goal is to identify the types of species whose climate tracking we must prioritize as we identify efficient and effective connectivity strategies.

DESCRIPTION:Collaborative science involves working closely with partners at every stage - from conceptualizing a new project\, to conducting the research\, to refining tools to best meet a management need. In May 2020\, hoping to start a dialogue around virtual engagement for collaborative science\, we held a webinar to reflect on the ways in which collaborative science practices have been impacted by COVID-19.\n\nNow\, as we look ahead to 2021\, we’re pausing a moment to reflect on what we learned over the course of 2020 and how our practices have changed in response to the pandemic. This webinar will feature preliminary findings from a 2020 survey of collaborative research grantees\, first-hand commentary on how collaborative practices have evolved\, and speculation about what these lessons mean for the future of collaborative work. The discussion will build on panelists’ comments to further tease out the implications of these new practices for future collaborative science work\, and how these lessons can be applied to coastal science within and beyond the NERRS.

Acquired when the brain experiences trauma like that of a stroke or head injury\, more than 2 million people in the U.S. are thought to have the disorder\; yet\, it's not something most people are aware of. It can be incredibly isolating\, which is why staying social and connected is especially important. \n\nThe University of Michigan Aphasia Program (UMAP) at the University Center for Language and Literacy (UCLL)\, hosts a free\, virtual aphasia social hour each week to help facilitate social connecting while practicing communication skills. \n\nAll aphasia social hours in January are scheduled for 4 - 5 p.m. Thursdays (Eastern) and will take on the following topics: \n\n*Jan. 14 - Resolve to participate in this session all about — you guessed it — resolutions. Love them? Hate them? Have a funny story about past resolutions? Bring it on.\n\n*Jan. 21 - Hometown Proud! Share about where you’re from or where you now live! Bring maps\, photos\, and brag (or complain!) about that place where you were brought up.\n \n*Jan. 28 - For us in Michigan\, wintertime can mean hunker-time\, as in hunker down until spring. But it doesn't have to. As the Nordic people say\, \"there is no such thing as bad weather\, only poor preparation.\" We're not sure about all that\, but come ready to share how you stay active in the winter months\, either outdoors or indoors.\n\nRegistration is required in order to get the link to join. See: https://umich.zoom.us/meeting/register/tJwlc-qhpjoqGNRqaI3Fepl8dswAWsS6SwuV\n\nWhen you click the link to register\, you can select which weeks you want to participate — all in one place. Sign up for them all to make sure you don't miss out on connecting with others in the aphasia community. Building confidence and staying social are some of the best things you can do for yourself and loved ones when aphasia is a part of your life.

Ultrasound present a great potential in imaging and therapy for CVD. In this talk\, small aperture transducers were designed\, fabricated and tested for advanced intravascular ultrasound imaging (IVUS) and effective and safe intravenous sonothrombolysis. In specific\, we investigated high frequency (40-60 MHz) micromachined piezoelectric composite transducers and arrays with broad bandwidth (-6 dB fraction bandwidth ~ 80%) for intravascular ultrasound (IVUS) imaging. Dual frequency transducers and arrays (6.5 MHz/30 MHz\, 3 MHz/30 MHz) were also successfully demonstrated for contrast enhanced intravascular superharmonic imaging (or acoustic angiography) toward detection of plaque vulnerability. For the case of intravascular thrombolysis\, small aperture (diameter <\;2 mm) sub-MHz forward-looking transducers were successfully developed with peak-negative-pressure of >\; 1.5 MPa. Significantly enhanced thrombolysis rate was observed by using microbubbles and nanodroplets in in-vitro tests. Other transducer techniques such as optical fiber laser ultrasound transducers were also investigated for intravenous sonothrombolysis. These new findings suggest that small aperture ultrasound transducers are increasingly important in advancing intravascular ultrasound imaging\, intravenous therapy\, minimal invasive diagnosis and therapy\, and image guided drug delivery and surgery.

Pozzi\nProfessor\nUniversity of Michigan\n\nTo build a great College of Engineering\, we must improve diversity\, equity\, and inclusion among our students\, faculty\, and staff. One of the ways to measure a College of Engineering’s impact is by our ability to develop future engineering and science leaders prepared to thrive in an environment that is clearly becoming more diverse and more global. Research and experience have shown time and again that diverse and inclusive teams provide the diversity of backgrounds and perspectives that result in better\, more comprehensive solutions to the complex problems that we tackle in engineering and in society at large. \n\nWe recognize that historically\, engineering is a field that lacks diversity\, for example\, along gender and race/ethnicity identities\, and that women and underrepresented minorities in this field report experiencing the workplace climate more negatively than members of the majority. In this talk\, I will discuss the forces that hold us back when attempting to build a more diverse\, inclusive\, and equitable College of Engineering. I will also discuss strategies that have been proven to be effective in counteracting these negative forces. I will conclude by discussing ways in which you can be a positive force for change as we work towards a great College of Engineering for all. \n\nAbout the speaker...\nProfessor Sara Pozzi is a Professor of Nuclear Engineering and Radiological Sciences and a Professor of Physics at the University of Michigan. Her research interests include the development of new methods for nuclear materials detection\, identification\, and characterization for nuclear nonproliferation\, safeguards\, and national security programs.

The presentation will examine the anthology’s position amongst different notions of “the folk” in Soviet Yiddish ethnography and folkloristics\, the writings of James Weldon Johnson and W.E.B. Du Bois\, with whom Magidoff corresponded\, and the Yiddish modernist poetry of Shmuel Halkin\, who edited the book series in which the anthology appears. When placed alongside DuBois's and others' visits to the Soviet Union in the 1930s\, the appearance of African-American poetry in Yiddish translation shows how a transatlantic Jewish avant-garde interpreted and embedded itself within Soviet-African-American contacts in between the Two World Wars. Magidoff served as a Soviet correspondent for NBC and the Associated Press from 1935.\nHe was accused of espionage and expelled from the USSR in 1948. In 1963 he defended a PhD in Russian literature at the University of Michigan Slavic Department.

However\, close inspection of many of these sites reveals patterns of bone processing that suggest instead that proboscidean carcass parts were brought to pond or bog settings by humans and were stored underwater to protect them from scavenging and preserve them for human consumption in times of food shortage. These sites thus shed new light on human subsistence and early history in North America. \n\nZoom lecture\nThursday\, January 21\, at 7:30 pm\n\nMAS lectures are free and open to the public.

In this talk I will cover various aspects of quality control in high-stakes and low-stakes assessment scenarios. One specific problem will be discussed in detail\, i.e.\, the detection of unintended intra-individual change during the assessment process\, such as test speededness and item pre-knowledge in the high-stakes context and respondent disengagement in the low-stakes context. By bringing the traditional statistical quality control methods including change point analysis and CUSUM control chart into the framework of item response theory (IRT) modeling\, new methods are developed to detect such response anomalies and protect validity of assessment scores.\n\nThis seminar will be livestreamed via Zoom https://umich.zoom.us/j/94350208889\nThere will be a virtual reception to follow UID:80504-20730284@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/80504 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:seminar LOCATION:Off Campus Location CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20210126T175127 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20210122T110000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20210122T120000 SUMMARY:Livestream / Virtual:Russian Conversation Club DESCRIPTION:Do you study Russian and want more opportunities to develop your speaking skills in a welcoming and low-stakes environment?

One particularly powerful technique is direct stochastic optical\nreconstruction microscopy (dSTORM)\, a widely-used type of single molecule localization microscopy (SMLM)\, which is based on the temporal separation of the emission of individual fluorophores\nand subsequent localization analysis. This eventually allows to reconstruct a super-resolved image revealing details down to typically 20 nm in a cellular setting. The key point here is the achievable localization precision\, which mainly depends on the image contrast generated by the individual fluorophore’s emission. We found that reflective metal-dielectric nano-coatings represent a tunable nanomirror that can do both quenching and boosting fluorescence for high-contrast imaging on the nanoscale. Such mirror-enhanced fluorescence is very different from other surface effects based on total internal reflection microscopy or optoplasmonics. While surface-plasmon supported fluorescence methods provide much higher enhancement factors\, mirror-enhanced approaches are more versatile and thus highly suitable for modern bio-imaging. The resolution improvement achieved with such mirror-enhanced STORM (meSTORM) is both spectrally and spatially tunable and thus allows for dual-color approaches on the one hand\, and selectively highlighting region above the cover glass on the other hand. Even if the resulting resolution boost is based on a near-field effect and thus restricted to imaging near surfaces\, a large variety of membrane fluorescence approaches even beyond SMLM benefit. Thus\, live-cell\nFluorescence Correlation Spectroscopy and Fluorescence Resonance Energy Transfer are as well perfect candidates to be pushed to the next level.

The unforgetting—the inability to remember or forget\, or to articulate memories in a meaningful way—has been due to the state’s suppression\, shame and guilt\, historical ideology\, and the changing politics. This book is the story of the changing memories and the variable conditions for silence over the past forty years.\n \nThongchai Winichakul is Emeritus Professor of History at the University of Wisconsin-Madison. His book\, *Siam Mapped: a History of the Geo-body of a Nation* (1994)\, was awarded the Harry J Benda Prize from the Association for Asian Studies (AAS\, USA) and was translated into Japanese\, Korean\, Chinese\, and Thai. He was a recipient of the John Simon Guggenheim Award in 1994. and was President of the Association for Asian Studies in 2013/14. He has also published eight books in Thai.\n \n \n \n----\nIf there is anything we can do to make this event accessible to you\, please contact us.

TPRS-Forest estimation uses the projected coordinates of a spatial variable and decomposes it into three components: spatial trend\, systematic variation along the spatial trend\, and random noise. The first stage uses thin-plate regression splines (TPRS) to approximate a non-stationary spatial trend\, or a change in the conditional mean across the region of observation. Because TPRS represents an approximation\, this stage does not model all spatial dependencies. To compensate\, the second stage performs a random forest regression on the TPRS residuals\, which accounts for systematic variation along the spatial trend. The final stage takes the filtered residuals from the second step and tests for any remaining spatial correlative structure\, using a global and local Moran test. This proposed method merges together two literatures of spatial modelling – geoadditive models (Kammann & Wand\, 2003\; Wood\, 2017) and spatial random forests (Georganos et al.\, 2019\; Hengl et al.\, 2004\, 2018) – and anchors them in a social scientific conceptual framework. In developing this method\, my primary goal is to provide a way for social scientists to descriptively model their data and produce a set of continuous predicted values while minimizing the assumptions on how best to model their data's spatial properties.\n\nThe primary function of the Interdisciplinary Seminar in Social Science Methodology (I3SM) is to provide an interdisciplinary forum for students and faculty to present their current projects and to receive feedback on either the methodological component of their project or a methodology under development. Presenters can also present new research questions and ideas and receive ideas about which methodologies would work best to tackle such questions. We define methodology broadly as the approaches to which data is collected and/or organized to give empirical content to social science research. It includes both qualitative and quantitative methodologies.\n\nTo join the meeting via Zoom\, email skuzushi@umich.edu for the meeting link.

Monitoring and anticipating the trajectory of lava flows is therefore the best approach to reduce losses and mitigate the risks associated with this phenomenon. Lava flow emplacement dynamics (speed\, rheological behavior\, morphology\, length) depend mainly on the topography\, the volumetric flow at the vent\, the volume emitted\, and the rheology of the lava itself. Lava rheology is directly linked to temperature\, chemical composition and to petrology (major element composition\, redox state\, volatile content\, and shape and size of bubbles and crystals). During flowing\, upon cooling the thermal gradient along and across the flow evolves continuously and triggers crystallization associated with evolution of the residual liquid chemical composition. This dynamic process has a direct influence on lava viscosity\, which lets the flow to stop when rheological parameters are such they impede further motion. We present here how lava viscosity is measured in the lab and in the field and how its evolution down flow may be modelled. To anticipate lava flow trajectory and maximum length\, we then set up a protocol that merges a stochastic approach to model the flood zone and a thermo-rheological model to calculate the distance reached as a function of the effusion rate. Using almost real-time satellite data\, we apply this protocol to monitor and anticipate the advance of lava flows at Piton de la Fournaise.

DESCRIPTION:This community conversation hosted by United Way for Southeastern Michigan and University of Michigan's Poverty Solutions will explore the reasons why more than half of Detroiters are financially insecure or in financial trouble.\n\nThe virtual event will present key findings from a new report from Poverty Solutions\, The Financial Well-Being of Detroit Residents: What Do We Know?\n\nThe report demonstrates how a combination of low and volatile incomes and disproportionately high costs makes it challenging for tens of thousands of Detroiters to maintain consistently positive cash flow and build savings\, leading many households to accrue unmanageable debt and suffer low credit scores. \n\nThis event is the first in a series of community conversations around opportunities for action to address the underlying conditions that create financial instability and hardship for so many Detroiters. We are seeking to engage a broad range of stakeholders – frontline staff\, agency leaders\, academics\, financial institutions\, policymakers\, funders\, individuals with lived experience of financial hardship\, and general members of the community.

What aspects of cognitive processing are most affected by incentives? How do task parameters and individual or group differences influence whether incentives will be effective? The present study takes some steps towards answering those questions: We used diffusion modeling to identify which aspects of cognitive processing were affected by loss incentive in a working memory task with varying retention intervals in young and older adults. Our results confirm some previous findings suggesting opposite responses to loss by young and older adults\, help identify which aspects of processing are most affected in each group\, and reveal some surprising beneficial effects of longer retention intervals. The analysis reveals the value of assessing the effects of incentive and task structure on theoretically meaningful processing parameters in addition to the behavioral performance itself.

The gallery is currently open Tuesdays and Fridays from 2pm to 7pm to U-M faculty\, staff\, and students with valid MCards only. Learn more about COVID health and safety restrictions prior to your visit:  https://stamps.umich.edu/exhibitions/stamps_gallery\nThe work in the exhibition can also be viewed online: http://stamps.umich.edu/calendar/event-detail/story_word_sound_sway\n\nArtists: Carisa Bledsoe (BFA Interarts ’14)\, Schroeder Cherry (BFA ’76)\, Elshafei Dafalla (MFA ’08)\, Masimba Hwati (MFA ’19)\, Caleb Moss (BFA ’13)\, Senghor Reid (BFA ’99)\, Valencia Robin (MFA ’08)\, Yvette Rock (MFA ’99)\, Wes Taylor (BFA ’04)\, Levester Williams (BFA ’13)\, and Elizabeth Youngblood (BFA ’73)\n\nStory\, Word\, Sound\, Sway is an exhibition of work by eleven Stamps School of Art & Design Alumni using performance\, movement\, text\, sound\, and design to interrogate systems of oppression and interrupt the status quo. It explores themes of alternative histories\, archives\, Black identity\, collective memory\, storytelling\; meshing performance and performativity\, and the interplay of the oral and aural in one’s experience of the world. An undercurrent of movement explored in multiple variations thread the works together\, realized through a variety of methods including painterly gesture\, repetitive mark-making\, performance with an audience or without\, spoken word\, ambient sound\, and reimagined instruments. The exhibition aspires to pull at the loosened threads of a social fabric in crisis\, revealing larger complex histories and art discourses\, nationally and internationally\, framed through the experiences and trajectories of Stamps alumni during their time in Ann Arbor\, Michigan. The exhibition will be accompanied by a publication that will include interviews with each of the alumni artists conducted by current Stamps’ student and exhibition co-curator Moteniola Ogundipe.\n\nStory\, Word\, Sound\, Sway is co-curated by Jennifer Junkermeier-Khan and Moteniola Ogundipe.\n\n \n\nImage: Levester Williams\, “Shift\, Sift\, Swoosh Bods\,” 2018\, (detail\, video still) HD video\, color\, four audio channels\; 17 minutes 33 seconds (full length).

A series of on-site historic plaques and an exhibition of Dorothea Lange’s incarceration photographs at a nearby train station serve as background to study the development of the new memorial. The design and iconography of the future Tanforan memorial –a figurative bronze surrounded by a landscaped memorial plaza– are analyzed alongside the motivations of the main actors that have shaped it: a group of memory activists\, a transit agency\, and a shopping mall developer. “Extending Apologies” argues that these past and future commemorative interventions reveal the tensions between an unsettled memorial landscape and the Japanese American community’s ongoing demands for apology.\n\nBio: Valentina Rozas-Krause received her Ph.D. in Architecture (History\, Theory & Society) from the University of California\, Berkeley. She is an architect with a Master’s Degree in Urban Planning from the Pontificia Universidad Católica de Chile. Her field of study encompasses architecture\, urbanism\, and landscape from the nineteenth century to the present\, with particular research and teaching interests in memory\, postcolonialism\, preservation\, public space\, social justice\, and gender. Valentina has published two books. The first\, Ni Tan Elefante\, Ni Tan Blanco (Ril\, 2014)\, is an urban\, architectural\, and political history of the National Stadium in Chile. The second is the co-edited volume Disputar la Ciudad (Bifurcaciones\, 2018) which deals with spatial strategies of oppression\, resistance\, memory and reparation within varying urban contexts. These join peer-reviewed articles in History & Memory\, e-flux\, Latin American Perspectives\, Anos 90\, ARQ\, Revista 180\, Cuadernos de Antropología Social\, and Bifurcaciones alongside a chapter in the edited volume Neocolonialism and Built Heritage (Routledge\, 2020). Her research has been supported by numerous fellowships and grants\, including a Mellon/ACLS Dissertation Completion Fellowship\, a Townsend Center for the Humanities Dissertation Fellowship\, a John L. Simpson Research Fellowship in International and Comparative Studies from UC Berkeley\, a DAAD Dissertation Research Grant\, and a Becas Chile Grant. Valentina is currently working on a book project titled Memorials and the Cult of Apology\, which examines how contemporary memorials aim to atone for past injustices. In effect\, apologies are being materialized into memorials\, a phenomenon of global importance\, which presents a major shift in national self-representation.

Muon collider has unique physics cases\, both as a Higgs factory as well as a high energy lepton collider. In this talk\, I will review the overall physics pictures for muon colliders and discuss these unique physics cases. In particular\, I will show a recent study where we rethink about WIMP DM and their testability at colliders. We show that through the new signature and channels proposed by us\, we can draw some conclusive statements about WIMP DM\, which can serve as a physics driver case for high energy muon colliders.
