Dr. Kingston will examine environmental proxies potentially linked to these dispersal events and genetic evidence for the timing and nature of movement of early hominins.\n\nProfessor Kingston is a Biological Anthropologist interested in reconstructing the environmental context of various stages of human evolution. He conducts field research primarily in Africa at various fossil sites\, ranging from localities that have yielded remains of apes predating the origin of the human lineage\, sites from which fossil humans (hominins) have been recovered\, and more recent archeological localities. He is especially interested in identifying factors that drove or mediated evolutionary innovations in our lineage. In this research\, he utilizes biogeochemical approaches to reconstruct dietary ecology\, climatic conditions\, and vegetational structure. \n\nThis is the fifth of a six-lecture series. The subject of the series is Advances in Science. The next lecture will be on February 18\, 2021. The title is Welcome to the Anthropocene.

The designation of these three religions as “Abrahamic” is used as a shorthand for their supposed common ancestry as well as for their assumed shared religious principles and values. Since its very purpose is to highlight the commonality of the three religions\, the term is always used in the plural. \nFor medieval thinkers in the Islamicate world\, however\, the Abrahamic model of religion was radically different from the contemporary one. This lecture will try to show\, they referred to Abraham either in order to highlight the exclusive veracity of one specific religion\, or\, at times\, to transcend all conventional religiosity. \n\nAdvanced Registration Required: https://umich.zoom.us/webinar/register/1816105512605/WN_hjo-P71UROGJ4_Opr1n6gA UID:80700-20775563@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/80700 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Jewish Studies LOCATION:Off Campus Location CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20210106T141651 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20210211T120000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20210211T125000 SUMMARY:Exercise / Fitness:Cardio Kickboxing DESCRIPTION:Come punch and kick to the beat of great music!

How should men and women feel confident deciding which relationships should end? In the early 2000s\, amidst demographic and social changes\, divorce in Japan rapidly became a newly visible and viable option. At individual\, familial\, and national levels\, in the early 2000s divorce prompted serious conversations about the value of relationships\, and the risks and security they bring to the people involved in them. Based on ethnographic work with men and women\, and told through deeply personal narratives\, Intimate Disconnections describes both the legal process and social transitions surrounding divorce\, providing a complex portrait of people balancing the risks and possibilities of intimate relationships in an era when divorce is ever more common.\n\nAllison Alexy is an assistant professor in the Departments of Asian Languages and Cultures\, and Women’s and Gender Studies\, at the University of Michigan. A cultural anthropologist focusing on intimacy and family conflicts in contemporary Japan\, she has co-edited Home and Family in Japan: Continuity and Transformation (Routledge 2011) and Intimate Japan: Ethnographies of Closeness and Conflict (Hawai’i 2019).\n \n Discussant: Ilana Gershon\, Ruth N.

In Divided Bodies\, Abigail A. Dumes offers an ethnographic exploration of the Lyme disease controversy that sheds light on the relationship between contested illness and evidence-based medicine in the United States. Drawing on fieldwork among Lyme patients\, doctors\, and scientists\, Dumes formulates the notion of divided bodies: she argues that contested illnesses are disorders characterized by the division of bodies of thought in which the patient's experience is often in conflict with how it is perceived. Dumes also shows how evidence-based medicine has paradoxically amplified differences in practice and opinion by providing a platform of legitimacy on which interested parties—patients\, doctors\, scientists\, politicians—can make claims to medical truth.\n\nThis event is part of IRWG's Gender: New Works\, New Questions series\, which spotlights recent publications by U-M faculty members and allows for deeper discussion by an interdisciplinary panel.

This presentation reviews recent experimental achievements in developing non-thermal plasmas (NTPs) to potentially displace HEPA filtration and ultraviolet irradiation for rapid inactivation of airborne viruses in ventilation air. Studies considering both viral surrogates and actual viral pathogens known to cause animal disease are discussed. Unique challenges faced in conducting airborne virus inactivation studies are described along with solutions developed. Finally\, performance comparisons between NTP air sterilization and the established technologies of UV irradiation and particle filtration are presented\, demonstrating the substantial promise posed by NTP-based approaches.\n\nBio: \nHerek Clack is an associate professor of civil & environmental engineering at the University of Michigan. At U-M\, his group focuses on chemical and biological aerosols and their interactions with electric fields and electrical discharges. He has served on numerous National Research Council committees addressing environmental issues ranging from the implications of changes to the regulations governing power plant emissions to the safe and ethical thermal destruction of both conventional munitions and chemical warfare agents by the U.S. military. He is the recipient of the XVI Distinguished Young Alumni/ae award (MIT\, 2000)\, the NSF CAREER Award (NSF\, 2004)\, the Harry J. White Award for Outstanding Achievement in the Science and Application of Electrostatic Precipitation (Int’l Soc. for Electrostatic Precipitation\, 2013)\, and the Kenneth M. Reese Outstanding Research Scientist Award (Univ. of Michigan College of Engineering\, 2019). He is vice-president and a member of the Board of Directors of the International Society for Electrostatic Precipitation (ISESP)\; serves on the Mitigation and Control Technology working group\, Awards Committee\, and Representation & Equity Affairs Committee of the American Association for Aerosol Research\; and is co-founder and acting CEO of the startup company Taza Aya LLC. He earned an S.B. in Aeronautical and Astronautical Engineering from MIT (1987) and an M.S. (1997) and Ph.D. (1998) in Mechanical Engineering from the University of California\, Berkeley.\n\nPlease join us!

This work is needed for the advancement of individual and institutional empathy so that we can move from tolerating to accepting to celebrating underrepresented minorities in academia. This will be achieved by encouraging workshop participants to identify instances: in their own lives in which structural prejudice and bigotry and individual-level macroaggressions hampered their career development\; in which they intentionally and/or unintentionally contributed to advancing structural prejudice and bigotry and/or perpetrated individual-level macroaggressions that may have hampered the career of underrepresented faculty\, students\, administration\, and staff\; and in which they were bystanders who did not intervene to dismantle structural prejudice and bigotry and/or address individual-level macroaggressions that they witnessed.\n\nFormat: This hands-on workshop will include:\nA. A short lecture whose content will include Pinto’s personal experiences and personal examples of the dynamics listed above. This will be reinforced with statistics (e.g.\, disparities in tenure and promotion)\, and anecdotes from other minority individuals.\n\nB. Following the lecture\, Pinto\, in collaboration with other actors\, will use Theater of the Oppressed (Port: Teatro dos Oprimidos) techniques to model skits reflecting each of the instances listed above. Skits will be scripted such that the ending of each story will be decided by participants in small groups with an eye toward actions they can take to improve diversity\, equity\, and inclusion in the academic space. (Boal A. (1979). Theatre of the Oppressed. New York\, NY: Theater Communications Group).\n\nC. Following small group discussions\, all participants will reconvene to discuss strategies for welcoming underrepresented minorities into their social networks. This portion of the workshop will help participants to understand how they can help underrepresented minorities develop social capital by lending their social support: emotional\, concrete\, and informational.\n\nRogério Pinto accepting on behalf of the Faculty Allies for Diversity Committee: Born in Belo Horizonte\, Brazil\, Rogério M. Pinto is a professor and associate dean for research at the University of Michigan School of Social Work. He is the co-chair of the Faculty Allies for Diversity Committee. In his work\, Pinto focuses on finding academic\, sociopolitical\, and cultural venues for broadcasting voices of oppressed individuals and groups. Funded by the National Institute of Mental Health\, his community-engaged research focuses on the impact of interprofessional collaboration on the delivery of evidence-based services to marginalized racial/ethnic and sexual minority individuals. Funded by the University of Michigan Office of Research\, as a new scholarly pursuit\, he is building an art installation\, The Realm of the Dead\, to investigate his own personal marginalization as a gender non-confirming\, mixed-race\, and Latinx immigrant. This installation will serve as the stage set for Pinto’s award-winning theatrical performance\, Marília\, a one-person play\, in which Pinto further explores the tragic death of his 3-year old sister\, Marília\, and how such loss haunts and inspires the lives of the family members she left behind. Marília won the 2015 United Solo Festival Best Documentary Script and it will be performed again at the University of Michigan as part of the centennial celebration of the School of Social Work.

Despite the significant progress in the discovery of surface markers\, targeting ligands\, and biomaterial carriers\, very few nanoparticle drugs are truly tumor-specific after intravenous injection and their targeting is still not fully reliable\, which results in a wide distribution of nanoparticles throughout the body and increases the chance of adverse side effects. To overcome such limitations\, my graduate research implemented immune cells as living targeting and delivery vehicles that deliver therapeutic biodegradable photoluminescent polymer (BPLP)-based nanoparticles to two tumor models\, melanoma and glioblastoma. This system takes advantage of the inherent targeting and penetrating capabilities of immune cells into the tumor target and the fluorescent properties of BPLP nanoparticles for in vivo imaging. Our platform technology allows assembling various types of nanoparticles\, drugs\, imaging agents\, and immune cells as a treatment for different diseases in the future. The second part of the seminar introduces how the immune cells can also be genetically engineered for cancer immunotherapy in vivo. Even with huge success in the development of CD19-targeting chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T cells for B-cell hematological malignancies\, we still face major challenges in expanding adoptive cell transfer for solid tumors. To expand this adoptive cell therapy\, finding the right targets for solid tumors that are tumor- and tumor microenvironment-specific is the foremost important step. During my postdoctoral work\, we have found an epitope within the collagen alpha-3(VI) (COL6A3) gene\, which can be used as a biomarker to target stromal cells associated with multiple solid tumors. COL6A3-specific TCRs were isolated and one of these TCRs was affinity enhanced so that the T cells expressing TCR variants that preserved COL6A3 specificity and endowed both CD4 and CD8 T cells with augmented effector functions were able to specifically eliminate tumors in vivo that expressed similar amount of peptide-human leukocyte antigen (pHLA) as primary tumor specimens with favorable safety profile with no detectable off-target reactivity. These preclinical findings serve as the basis and rationale to initiate clinical trials using COL6A3-specific TCRs to target an array of solid tumors. As a principal investigator\, my lab will first focus on merging immunology\, synthetic biology\, genetic engineering\, material science\, and biomedical engineering to develop and evaluate the next generation T cell-based therapies that target and kill solid tumors with enhanced specificity\, reduced toxicity\, and the ability to overcome tumor-associated immunosuppression.

The emergent behavior is more than the individual sum of its parts. Solving wicked problems in a complex system requires transdisciplinary\, which is a fused or holistic solution from the melange of multiple disciplines concurrently. You’ll recognize a transdisciplinary solution when it is difficult if not impossible to identify the unique contribution of any specific discipline to the solution. \n \nWe have developed ASTRIAGraph as an initial transdisciplinary solution to this space traffic problem. We describe this development in terms of a digital twin and library making the best of sound data engineering\, science\, and analytics\, with real world examples.\n\nAbout the speaker...\nMoriba Jah is an Associate Professor of Aerospace Engineering and Engineering Mechanics at The University of Texas at Austin where he is the holder of the Mrs. Pearlie Dashiell Henderson Centennial Fellowship in Engineering.

His research involves using high-performance computing and novel algorithms for accelerating physics-based simulation frameworks\, and developing faithful reduced-order models of black-box high-fidelity simulations.\n\nAbstract: With the advancement of computing software and hardware\, physics-based simulations have gained notoriety in many scientific and industrial applications due to their highly accurate prediction capabilities. However\, in addition to being computationally expensive\, even a single of these high-fidelity simulations produce massive amounts of data. Storing and processing all these data thus requires novel approaches. In this talk\, I will present how we can use tensor factorization methods for compressing scientific data\, leading to dramatic savings in disk-space usage. Towards the end of the talk\, I’ll also touch upon how we can potentially construct reduced-order models out of these compressed datasets.

He is the author of *Cenzontle* (BOA editions\, 2018)\, chosen by Brenda Shaughnessy as the winner of the 2017 A. Poulin Jr. prize and winner of the 2018 Northern California Book Award. *Cenzontle* maps a parallel between the landscape of the border and the landscape of sexuality through surreal and deeply imagistic poems. Castillo’s first chapbook\, *Dulce* (Northwestern University Press\, 2018)\, was chosen by Chris Abani\, Ed Roberson\, and Matthew Shenoda as the winner of the Drinking Gourd Poetry Prize. His memoir *Children of the Land* (Harper Collins\, 2020) is his most recent publication and explores the ideas of separation from deportation\, trauma\, and mobility between borders.\n\nCastillo was born in Zacatecas\, Mexico and immigrated at the age of five with his family to the California central valley. As an AB540 student\, he earned his B.A. from Sacramento State University and was the first undocumented student to graduate from the Helen Zell Writers Program at the University of Michigan. His immigration case was used by the Supreme Court to justify the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) under president Obama. Castillo is a founding member of the Undocupoets campaign which successfully eliminated citizenship requirements from all major first poetry book prizes in the country and was recognized with the Barnes and Noble “Writers for Writers” award from Poets &Writers Magazine. Through a literary partnership with Amazon Publishing he has helped to establish The Undocupoet Fellowship which provides funding to help curb the cost of submissions to journals and contests.\n\nHe is the translator of the Argentinian modernist poet\, Jacobo Fijman and is currently at work translating the poems of the contemporary Mexican Peruvian poet Yaxkin Melchy whose poems combine digital\, environmental\, and indigenous studies into a cosmopolitan melée specific to Mexico City. Castillo also co-translated the work of the Mexican poet Marcelo Uribe with C.D. Wright before her untimely passing.\n\nCastillo’s work has been adopted to Opera through collaboration with the composer Reinaldo Moya and his work has appeared or been featured in The New York Times\, PBS Newshour\, People Magazine en Español\, The Paris Review\, Fusion TV\, Buzzfeed\, Gulf Coast: A Journal of Literature and Fine Arts\, New England Review\, and Indiana Review\, among others. He currently teaches in the Low-Res MFA program at Ashland University. He lives in Marysville\, California\, with his wife and son.\n\n\nThe Zell Visiting Writers Series brings outstanding writers to campus each semester. The Series is made possible through a generous gift from U-M alumna Helen Zell (BA ’64\, LLDHon ’13).

A sharp divide emerges in the behaviour and performance of reversible versus non-reversible PT schemes: the performance of the former eventually collapses as the number of parallel cores used increases whereas non-reversible benefits from arbitrarily many available parallel cores. These theoretical results are exploited to develop an adaptive scheme to efficiently optimize over annealing schedules.\n\nIn the second half\, I will talk about the global communication barrier\, a fundamental limit shared by both reversible and non-reversible PT methods\, and on our recent work that leverage non-linear annealing paths to provably and practically break that barrier.\n\nMy group is also interested in making these advanced non-reversible Monte Carlo methods easily available to data scientists. To do so\, we have designed a Bayesian modelling language to perform inference over arbitrary data types using non-reversible\, highly parallel algorithms.\n\nReferences:\n\n- Non-Reversible Parallel Tempering: a Scalable Highly Parallel MCMC Scheme.\n Saifuddin Syed\, Alexandre Bouchard-Côté\, George Deligiannidis\, Arnaud Doucet.\n https://arxiv.org/pdf/1905.02939.pdf\n- Software: https://www.stat.ubc.ca/~bouchard/blang/\n\nhttps://www.stat.ubc.ca/~bouchard/\n\nThis seminar will be livestreamed via Zoom https://umich.zoom.us/j/94350208889\nThere will be a virtual reception to follow UID:80564-20740177@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/80564 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:seminar LOCATION:Off Campus Location CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20210209T122748 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20210212T103000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20210212T113000 SUMMARY:Reception / Open House:Semester in Detroit Winter 2021 Office Hours DESCRIPTION:Got questions about your application?

For example\, the actin networks of human epithelial cells can *simultaneously* control cell migration\, endocytosis\, vesicular trafficking\, cell polarity\, and other actin functions important for human health. Despite having distinct functions\, individual actin networks share structural components and regulators\, including polymerization factors\, polymer bundlers\, and proteins that promote network turnover. Determining how cells control different subsets of actin functions\, and how these functions change over time\, are difficult questions to address given the large amount of molecular overlap and spatial proximity between functionally distinct actin networks in animal cells. Budding and fission yeasts—the other most commonly-used model systems to study actin—have spatially separated actin networks\, a property that has made them powerful for determining precise molecular mechanisms underlying actin-dependent functions like endocytosis. Yeast\, however\, have lost important actin structures including an actin cortex and protrusions used for cell motility. Yeasts are also missing many important regulators of human actin networks\, making it difficult to determine to what extent the rules of actin network specification of yeast can be applied to animal cells. To bridge this gap\, my lab uses chytrid fungi as a system to study the functional specification of animal-like and yeast-like actin networks because: (a) chytrids are early-branching fungi and have retained actin regulators found in human cells that have been lost by yeast and other fungi as well as fungal-specific actin network components (1)\, and (b) chytrids undergo natural developmental transitions between motile\, animal-like cell types with an actin cortex and sessile\, yeast-like cell types with cell walls and physically separated actin networks. In this seminar\, I will explain how we came to study these fascinating fungi and how we are now using chytrid fungi as a system to study the functional specification of animal-like and yeast-like actin networks and the developmental transitions between them.

Film-screening of *Ghost Tape #10* followed by a Q&A with the Director DESCRIPTION:At this CSEAS Lecture Series\, we will screen the film \"Ghost Tape #10\,\" which will follow with a Q&A with the Director Sean David Christensen.\n\nFree and open to the public. Please register at http://bit.ly/38nadB7\n \nFilm Synopsis:\n \nCreated by the U.S. Army during the American War in Viet Nam\, *Ghost Tape #10* was one of many audiotapes engineered to psychologically intimidate and demoralize the North Vietnamese Army through its depiction of the Buddhist afterlife. By re-examining this weaponization of religious belief\, reflections on this artifact of American propaganda lead to meditations on relationships between the living and the dead\, asking what truths\, if any\, still echo within this recording.\n \nFilm Director Bio:\n \nSean David Christensen (b. 1985) is a visual artist who works in music & film. His work has been featured at the Hammer Museum\, San Francisco International Film Festival\, Austin Film Festival & Pictoplasma Berlin. His films have screened at the Angelika Film Center\, Phoenix Art Museum & the Musée des beaux-arts in Montréal. His artwork has been presented on Rolling Stone\, and his experimental documentary *The Duel*\, based on a true story by actress Lili Taylor\, was named a Vimeo Staff Pick in 2018. Amy R. Handler of Moving Pictures has described his filmmaking as\, “Brilliant...fragile & hypnotic\,” and Sundance Award-winning director Jay Rosenblatt has described Christensen's short films as\, “Evocative...they do what many short films fail to do\, make you wish they were longer.” Christensen is a graduate of the Center for Visual Anthropology at the University of Southern California and lives & works in Los Angeles.\n\nFilm website: https://filmfreeway.com/GhostTape10\n\n\n*If there is anything we can do to make this event accessible to you\, please contact us.

One strategy in pre-modern Peru was mortuary practice\, a means of expressing relationships among the living and the dead. To what extent and for what purpose did indigenous groups transform mortuary practices during periods of conquest? Who were the dead? To address these questions\, I employ an approach that integrates archaeological data\, ancient DNA (aDNA)\, and other lines of evidence to examine two distinct grave types—chullpas (above-ground and subterranean mausolea) and subterranean cists— in the Chincha Valley of the Peruvian south coast. These graves date to the Late Intermediate Period (1000 – 1400 CE)\, Late Horizon (1400 – 1532 CE)\, and the Colonial Period (1532 – 1825 CE). Results demonstrate that indigenous peoples sustained\, abandoned\, and created entirely new mortuary practices under Inca and Spanish rule. Genome-wide data from six individuals in two cemeteries coincide with ceramic\, textile\, isotopic\, and sixteenth-century documents to suggest that the Inca moved individuals from the Peruvian north coast to the Chincha Valley. This research widens the scope of imperialism studies to include a mortuary perspective on the dynamics between empires and indigenous peoples and provides evidence of state-sponsored resettlement in the Andes.\n\nZoom link: https://umich.zoom.us/j/92733557951 UID:81730-20949381@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/81730 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Anthropology,Archaeology LOCATION:Off Campus Location CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20210212T083454 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20210212T120000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20210212T130000 SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Deepening Democracy through Equitable Climate Action DESCRIPTION:Heather McTeer Toney addresses how we must embrace climate action as the social justice issue of our time\, and tear down old stereotypes-so that we can build sustainable and resilient alliances to fight effectively together\, and affirm our common humanity.\n\nHeather McTeer Toney was the first African-American\, first female and the youngest to serve as Mayor of Greenville\, Mississippi from 2004-2012.

Her process often engages historical and mythic texts as inspiration and points of departure to create new representations of culture\, femininity\, sexuality\, and power\, and to bring queer femme perspectives typically absent from canons of literature and art. \n \nHow does Ganesh employ research to approach these large ideas\, identities\, and histories in her research and creative process? Join this discussion + workshop to learn directly from Ganesh about her artistic practice\, and to apply a little of her approach to your own creative projects (whether they be artistic\, conceptual\, entrepreneurial\, or otherwise). Browse her website and Instagram.\n \nDuring the workshop\n \nParticipants are invited to think of something that inspires them and/or they have questions about:\n \n- a film - a book\, poem\, comic or graphic novel\, or other form of writing - a common historical narrative - a person (past or present) - something from Tik Tok - a meme - a video\n \nThrough discussion\, writing\, doodling\, drawing\, and other exercises\, this workshop will offer the space to explore and expand the ways in which creative projects can offer critiques of society\, ideas about history and identity\, and new imaginings of what is possible.\n \nSultana’s Dream and recent work\n \nRecently acquired by UMMA and featured in the upcoming exhibition Oh honey...A queer reading of the collection\, Ganesh’s series of prints Sultana’s Dream takes its inspiration from a 1905 text by the same name written by Rokeya Sakhawat Hossain\, a trailblazer for women's rights in South Asia. In Ganesh's words\, Sultana’s Dream is a moving blueprint for an urban utopia that centers concepts such as collective knowledge production\, fair governance\, radical farming\, scientific inquiry\, safe space for refugees\, and a work-life balance that includes down time and dreaming\, all with women--as thinkers\, leaders\, rebels\, and visionaries--at the helm. A video installation titled How We Do accompanied two exhibitions of Sultana’s Dream in New York and Bangladesh. In the installation\, Ganesh mixed how-to videos and media reports found online with clips she solicited from friends and members of her broader queer and trans communities\, seeking to build a body of collective knowledge and skill-sharing techniques\, which she proposes are an essential aspect of an equitable future.\n \nIn her most recent work\, A city will tell you her secrets if you ask\, this year’s QUEERPOWER public art installation at the Leslie Lohman Museum of Art in NYC\, Ganesh celebrates queer\, trans\, and BIPOC histories of downtown Manhattan while commemorating the deaths of trans people murdered in 2020 and LGBTQ activists lost to COVID. \n \nRelated events\n \nChitra Ganesh: On Utopia and Dissent. Friday\, March 12\, 8 p.m.  presented by UMMA and the Penny Stamps Speaker Series\n\nChitra Ganesh programs are organized in partnership with the Penny Stamps Speaker Series and the Spectrum Center in conjunction with the upcoming UMMA exhibition Oh honey...a queer reading of the collection. \n\nStudent programming at UMMA is generously supported by the University of Michigan Credit Union Arts Adventures Program\, UMMA's Lead Sponsor for Student and Family Engagement.

In any situation it is very important to limit your opponent’s ability to harm you. More than 50 years ago initial stealth efforts focused on incorporating materials into an airplane’s design to reduce radar signatures. This proved to be a difficult and elusive goal. Today ‘stealth’ is designed into virtually every military vehicle.\n\nThis seminar will review the history of early stealth efforts and conclude with where the state-of-the-art is today. Air vehicles will be the main focus but it will also become clear that stealth is being added to the designs of land and sea vehicles as well. In this discussion reducing the ‘signature’ of an air vehicle to radar will be the primary focus. However\, it should be recognized that IR (infrared)\, audible\, and visual signatures can also be very important. They will be introduced with little discussion.\n\nUltimately\, the goal is to have a vehicle survive and be able to fly tomorrow’s missions or successfully penetrate enemy positions to destroy its target. Stealth is a major component of survivability but it is not the only one.\n\nWhat was the first stealth airplane? You may be surprised to learn the answer.\n\nAbout the speaker...\nMr. Carichner went to work for the Lockheed Skunk Works after earning his BS Engr and MS Engr degrees from UCLA. He retired in 2013 after 48 years at the Skunk Works where he worked on most of the company’s high-profile programs. During his career he started out as an aerodynamicist and eventually became Head of Aerodynamics for the Skunk Works. Future program assignments were either Chief Engineer or Program Manager positions. As Chief Engineer for the JASSM Program he was selected as Lockheed’s Inventor of the Year.\n\nThe last 15 years of his career were dedicated to lighter-than-air designs. He created the Aerocraft Program whose design resulted in a hybrid airship demonstrator that had many airplane flight characteristics that has changed the course of future airship design.\n \nCurrently\, Mr. Carichner teaches Airplane Design at Cal Poly Pomona.\n\nMr. Carichner has written two textbooks. One on airplane design and another on airship design. Both books are published by the AIAA\n Fundamentals of Aircraft and Airship Design: Volume I - Aircraft Design\n Fundamentals of Aircraft and Airship Design: Volume II - Airship Design and \n Case Studies UID:81659-20941441@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/81659 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Aerospace,aerospace engineering LOCATION:Off Campus Location CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20210128T180544 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20210212T133000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20210212T160000 SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Douglass Day 2021 DESCRIPTION:You're invited to a birthday party for Frederick Douglass.

DESCRIPTION:Abstract:\nWorking memory and episodic memory processes both decline with age. Correlational evidence suggests reduced working and age-related episodic memory difficulties are closely related. However\, Bartsch\, Loaiza & Oberauer (2019) recently failed to find that reduced working memory causes older adults’ EM impairment. The study used a three-alternative forced-choice recognition task to test memory for word-pairs immediately after encoding\, tapping working memory processes\, and then again later in the task\, ultimately tapping episodic memory processes. Interestingly\, probing the contents of working memory in this manner may have negatively affected subsequent episodic memory for the same word-pairs. Alternatively\, testing working memory may serve as an opportunity for retrieval practice that will improve episodic memory. The current project investigates the conditions in which testing working memory will be beneficial and when it will reveal memory vulnerability and explores whether the effects of testing working memory on episodic memory depends on individual differences in working memory capacity.

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).

Such analyses of material practices cast light on a late Ming ecology of music in which the human body was deployed together with instruments and writing/printing technology as an essential tool for the practice\, reproduction\, and circulation of music.\n\nZoom link: https://umich.zoom.us/j/96135507409 UID:81080-20846539@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/81080 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:China,colloquium,Graduate Students,Literature,Music,Performance,Virtual LOCATION:Off Campus Location CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20210208T164738 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20210212T160000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20210212T170000 SUMMARY:Social / Informal Gathering:Valentine's Day Activity Line Up: Speed Friending & Movie Night DESCRIPTION:Join the MLCAs for a two-part program: Speed Friending Event at 4-5 PM and Movie Night (Princess Bride) at 5:30-7 PM! \n\nThis program is an opportunity to provide a space for residents to get to know one another and/or relax from school work while enjoying a movie.

She is interested in the relationship between public space and mental health\, the tension between individual liberty and social cohesion\, and a city that exposes and fosters the complexity of the individual and collective psyche. With a background in urban planning\, Chang worked with communities in Nairobi\, New York\, Helsinki\, New Orleans\, Vancouver\, and Johannesburg\, where she observed universal challenges of the democratic commons. She created interactive experiments in the public realm to explore more inclusive forms of community dialogue. After struggling with grief and depression\, she channeled her emotional questions into her public work. Thanks to passionate people around the world\, her participatory public art project Before I Die has been created in over 2\,000 cities and over 70 countries\, including China\, Iraq\, Argentina\, Russia\, Haiti\, Kazakhstan\, and South Africa. Her work has been exhibited in the Venice Architecture Biennale\, New Museum\, Tate Modern\, San Francisco Museum of Modern Art\, Ogden Museum of Southern Art\, and the Cooper-Hewitt National Design Museum. She is a recipient of the TED Senior Fellowship\, Tulane University Urban Innovation Fellowship\, Tony Goldman Visionary Artist Award\, and Art Production Fund Artist Residency. She was named one of the Top 100 Leaders in Public Interest Design by Impact Design Hub\, a “Live Your Best Life” Local Hero by Oprah Magazine\, and a World Economic Forum Young Global Leader. She has been the keynote speaker at events including the Creativity World Forum\, American Planning Association National Conference\, and the Global Health Summit. She received a Master’s degree in Urban Planning from Columbia University\, as well as a BS in Architecture and a BFA in Graphic Design from the Stamps School of Art & Design at the University of Michigan.\n\nThis Speaker Series event is an online premiere of a live event from our archives\, which the artist has graciously granted permission for in light of the ongoing circumstances of isolation. The event took place in 2014 with support from Taubman College of Architecture and Urban Planning\, Arts Engine\, and the Institute for the Humanities.

Newly-developed vaccines offer hope of conquering this rapidly spreading disease\, but success is not assured. Access to and acceptance of vaccines varies widely across the country and here in Michigan. Join us for a panel discussion to learn about the science behind COVID-19 vaccines\, their likelihood to protect against the more contagious COVID-19 variants\, the reasons behind vaccine “hesitancy\,” and Michigan Medicine's efforts to build trust with people who are wary of vaccination.\n\nThe program will be moderated by Charles Wilson\, MSW\, Community Health Promotion Supervisor\, Washtenaw County Health Department.\n\nFree virtual event\n\nPanelists and Topics\nAssociate Professor Emily T. Martin\, Ph.D.\, a molecular epidemiologist in the University of Michigan School of Public Health\, will compare the three types of COVID-19 vaccines and discuss their effectiveness. \n\nNina Masters\, Ph.D.\, recently completed her doctoral degree in Epidemiology at the University of Michigan. She studies the impact of clustered non-vaccination on outbreak risk\, and the evolution of vaccine hesitancy. \n\nT. Anthony Denton\, J.D.\, M.H.A.\, Chief Operating Officer and Senior Vice President of Michigan Medicine\, will discuss U-M’s COVID-19 outreach to Michiganders\, including communities of color.\n\nThe annual Farrand Lecture was established in honor of William R. Farrand (1931-2011)\, director of the University of Michigan Exhibit Museum of Natural History from July 1993 to June 2000. The William R. Farrand Public Lecture Endowment was created on the occasion of his retirement. The lecture was renamed the William R. Farrand Memorial Lecture following Bill’s death in 2011. Now in its 21st year\, Farrand lectures have covered topics ranging from the challenges of sending humans to Mars to dinosaur-eating snakes.

The MBCT group serves as treatment for people with depression as well as other mental health conditions. While the chemical and physical aspects of depression and other mental health disorders are far more complex than just feeling down\, current research supports a cognitive approach as a way to change patterns of brain functioning and build resilience in people struggling with chronic depression.\n\nThis program uses a combination of cognitive therapy and mindfulness to help participants form new\, healthier modes of thought. MBCT initiates a cognitive change that helps clients move past events that have the potential to trigger relapse. Participants learn how to view their thoughts without judgment.\n\nIf you are interested in attending or referring a potential group participant\, please contact the Psychological Clinic to begin the process. Call (734) 764-3471 to schedule a screening. Alternately\, you can contact the clinic through the website form\, found here: https://mari.umich.edu/psych-clinic/contact-us.\n\nIf you missed the start of this session or are interested in a group at a different time or on a different day\, please contact us!

The first song\, \"New Low\,\" is more than a return to music for the internationally celebrated singer-songwriter and activist: it is a definition of form\, a call for uprising in the face of global disaster\, at the most critical moment for Harmer to raise her voice\, one of the most distinctive in Canadian music. The vitality of Sarah's new music belies the passage of time since Harmer’s last record\, \"Oh Little Fire\" (2010). Nearly twenty years from the release of her debut\, \"You Were Here\" (2000)\, \"Are You Gone\" brings a close to Sarah's period of musical quietude with a rousing artistic statement\, rich in detail and emotion\, from the heart and for the spirit. This is Sarah Harmer's first appearance at the The Ark in some years\, so come and check out this important new statement from a Canadian favorite.

At first glance\, the constructed space is a shimmering homage to the bedroom disco—a sanctuary for uninhibited dance and self-expression. It has also become the setting from which many personal videos are made and shared widely on social media\, where platforms such as Instagram and TikTok have blurred the boundary between public and private. Projected into the space is a montage of casual videos shared by female-identifying and non-binary persons of SWANA* origin dancing solo in their rooms. To some\, the videos may seem innocent and innocuous\, but they can also be seen as acts of defiance that assert the autonomy of bodies that have been surveilled\, scrutinized\, and censored throughout history. Alongside these intimate moments is a separate reel showing political figures and protest movements from the SWANA region. The images demonstrate the fluctuating attitudes and regulations impacting human rights and freedoms based on gender\, and exemplify how—whether we are physically at a protest or sharing our physicality in virtual spaces—our bodies are engaged in some level of risk.\n*Southwest Asian/North African\n\nThis project is supported by a grant from the Efroymson Family Fund.

This analysis uses a subsample of the Survey of Social Relations which began in 1992 with a representative sample of Detroit area residents aged 8 to 93 (additional waves in 2005\; 2015). Using latent class growth analyses\, we identified three patterns of change in the proportion of friends in social networks (moderate and increasing\; low and decreasing\; high and increasing) and two patterns of change in positive friendship quality (high positive and decreasing\; high positive and increasing) and negative friendship quality (low negative and steady\, high negative and steady) over time. Neither\, higher education and not being married was associated with social networks that in 1992 had the highest proportion of friends\, that increased over time. Neither age nor gender were significantly associate with changing proportions or quality of friendship. Patterns of change in proportion of friends was not associated with self-rated health or depressive symptoms. However\, results indicate that positive friendship trajectories\, but not negative friendship trajectories\, were associated with better self-rated health. The effects of increasingly positive quality friend relations over time are especially impactful on mental health earlier in the lifespan. People who are younger were more likely to report fewer depressive symptoms two waves later\, if they have increasing friend positive relationship quality. This paper capitalizes on longitudinal data over twenty-five years to begin to identify the complexity of friendships and their effects over time.\n\nCo-authors: Kristine Ajrouch\, Noah Webster and Rita Hu UID:80745-20783437@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/80745 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:brown bag LOCATION:Off Campus Location CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20210122T120638 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20210215T120000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20210215T120000 SUMMARY:Meeting:Michigan in Washington Application Deadline-Feb. 15th DESCRIPTION:The Michigan in Washington Program is accepting applications for Fall 2021 and early admission Winter 2022.

We have established experimental systems in budding yeast\, zebrafish embryos\, and mammalian tissue culture cells to explore transcription and splicing regulation in a variety of biological contexts and with a diversity of tools\, from imaging to genome-wide approaches. Our observations have provided novel insights into transcription and splicing mechanisms as well as principles of cellular organization that facilitate efficient gene expression. In this talk\, I will be discussing rapid co-transcriptional splicing during erythropoiesis and how Cajal bodies assemble to ensure a steady supply of spliceosomal components.

Wild\, Native\, or Pure: Trout as Genetic Bodies DESCRIPTION:Advances in genetics and genomics have raised new questions in trout restoration and management\, specifically about species identity and purity\, which fish to value\, and where these fish belong. We examine how this molecular turn in fisheries management is influencing wild and native trout policy in Colorado. Examples from two small Colorado watersheds illustrate how framing trout as genetic bodies can guide managers to care for or kill trout populations in the interest of rectifying decades of genetic disruption caused by human activity. The turn to genetic science is prompting new classifications of lineage and taxa\, altering long-standing conservation priorities\, and reorienting the manipulation of biological processes such as reproduction and dispersal. As a result\, other social and ecological factors may be pushed to the margins of management decisions. These changes warrant greater conversation about the consequences of molecular analyses and the values embedded in trout science and conservation more broadly.\n\nDavid Havlick is Professor of Geography and Environmental Studies at the University of Colorado-Colorado Springs. His research on militarized landscapes\, restoration geographies\, conservation\, and public lands has been supported by the National Science Foundation\, American Geographic Society\, and US Forest Service. He has published in journals including Science\, The Geographical Review\, Environmental Ethics\, Progress in Physical Geography\, Forestry\, and Science\, Technology and Human Values. His book\, Bombs Away: Militarization\, Conservation\, and Ecological Restoration (University of Chicago Press\, 2018)\, won the 2019 JB Jackson Prize from the American Association of Geographers.

At first glance\, the constructed space is a shimmering homage to the bedroom disco—a sanctuary for uninhibited dance and self-expression. It has also become the setting from which many personal videos are made and shared widely on social media\, where platforms such as Instagram and TikTok have blurred the boundary between public and private. Projected into the space is a montage of casual videos shared by female-identifying and non-binary persons of SWANA* origin dancing solo in their rooms. To some\, the videos may seem innocent and innocuous\, but they can also be seen as acts of defiance that assert the autonomy of bodies that have been surveilled\, scrutinized\, and censored throughout history. Alongside these intimate moments is a separate reel showing political figures and protest movements from the SWANA region. The images demonstrate the fluctuating attitudes and regulations impacting human rights and freedoms based on gender\, and exemplify how—whether we are physically at a protest or sharing our physicality in virtual spaces—our bodies are engaged in some level of risk.\n*Southwest Asian/North African\n\nThis project is supported by a grant from the Efroymson Family Fund.

Previous studies have found that social housing has an attenuating effect on the motivation to self-administer methamphetamine (METH) in female rats. Interestingly\, females tend to benefit from having a cage mate while male rats do not. In order to understand how social behavior could be attenuating METH-taking behavior\, the quality of the relationships between cage mates is being investigated to look at potential causes of this sex difference. Additionally\, we are looking at dopamine (DA) release changes in the nucleus accumbens during baseline and after METH injections using fast scan cyclic voltammetry to understand the underlying neurochemical mechanisms that are occurring with different social housing conditions.

They will read selections of their poems and translations\, including their recent collaboration: Huynh’s French translation Alkalay-Gut’s collection of Holocaust poetry\, Surviving Her Story/Survivre à son histoire. \n\nKaren Alkalay-Gut was born in London on the last night of the V-1 flying bomb attacks and grew up in Rochester\, New York\, completing a PhD in 1975 at the University of Rochester. Since 1972 she has lived in Israel\, raising a family\, and is retired from teaching poetry at Tel Aviv University. She was the founding chair of the Israel Association of Writers in English\, a position she held until 2014 and resumed in 2018. She was Vice Chair of the former Federation of Writers Unions in Israel and is currently a board member of the Yiddish Writers Association. She has written poetry for the cabaret ensemble Panic Ensemble\, as well as wide-ranging essays and scholarly articles. Her poetry publications include the recent collections A Word in Edgewise (English)\, Derakhim le-ehov (Ways to Love\, Hebrew)\, and Yerusha (Inheritance\, Yiddish/Hebrew). \n\nSabine Huynh is a poet\, translator and editor based in Tel Aviv.

This talk\, based on Professor Lindtner’s most recent publication \"Prototype Nation\" (Princeton University Press\, 2020)\, offers a rich transnational analysis of how the promise of democratized innovation and entrepreneurial life has shaped China’s governance and global image. With historical precision and ethnographic detail\, Professor Lindtner reveals how a growing distrust in Western models of progress and development\, including Silicon Valley and the tech industry after the financial crisis of 2007–08\, shaped the rise of the global maker movement and the vision of China as a “new frontier” of innovation.\n \n Silvia Lindtner is an assistant professor at the University of Michigan in the School of Information. She researches\, writes and teaches about DIY (do-it-yourself) maker culture\, with a particular focus on its intersections with manufacturing and industry development in China. Drawing on her background in interaction design and media studies\, she merges ethnographic methods with approaches in design and making. This allows her to provide deep insights into emerging cultures of technology production and use\, from a sociological and technological perspective.\n \n Together with Anna Greenspan (NYU SH) and David Li (XinCheJian)\, Silvia Lindtner is also the co-founder of the Research Initiative Hacked Matter. Hacked Matter. It has\, since its inception in 2011\, organized a series of workshops\, lectures\, public panel discussions as well as hands-on engagements with questions of DIY making\, manufacturing\, and innovation ecosystems.\n\nZoom webinar\; attendance requires registration: https://umich.zoom.us/webinar/register/WN_wJ0Z2eYHQ6GWAu1oqDbkeA UID:80370-20711698@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/80370 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Business,Chinese Studies,Information And Technology LOCATION:Off Campus Location CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20210112T132313 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20210216T120000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20210216T130000 SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Visualizing Membrane Mechanics: From Nuclear Envelope Integrity to Photon Harvesting-Department of Biological Chemistry Seminar DESCRIPTION:Dr. Adam Frost\, UCSF\, will deliver a virtual seminar on Tuesday February 16th\, 2021 UID:80648-20769620@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/80648 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Basic Science,biolgical chemistry,biological,biological chemistry,biological science,biology,Biosciences LOCATION:Off Campus Location CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20210303T123109 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20210216T130000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20210216T140000 SUMMARY:Careers / Jobs:A-LIGN Virtual Internship Program: A Closer Look DESCRIPTION:Are you interested in learning more about how A-LIGNs virtual internship program and how A-LIGNs internship program will develop you into an IT\, cybersecurity and audit professional?\n\nJoin us for this event to learn all about A-LIGNs virtual internship program starting Summer 2021!\n\nDuring this session we will discuss the following elements of the internship program:\n\n- Professional Development\n- Networking\n- Keys to Success\n- Qualifications\n- Internship Timeline and Deliverables\n- Characteristics of a Successful Intern\n- Intern Performance Evaluation\n- Schedule (Start Date\, End Date\, Hours)\n- Live Q&A\n\nDon't miss out on this opportunity to get your virtual internship questions answered by our Training and Development leaders and Talent Acquisition professionals.\n\nWe can't wait to meet you virtually - see you there!\n\nREGISTER HERE: https://a-lign.zoom.us/webinar/register/WN_bHOLI4MZTravCyvr9m8s6w UID:81599-20929553@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/81599 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES: LOCATION: CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20210211T154239 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20210216T130000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20210216T143000 SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Digital Scholarship 101: Understanding Accessibility for Projects DESCRIPTION:You’ve heard about “accessibility\,” but do you know what it means for your project?

Re-Engaging with Abd al-Rahman Jami: An Intellectual History Project DESCRIPTION:Free and open to the public\; please register at https://myumi.ch/qg71e\n\n This talk is about re-engaging with a project about Jami (1414-1492) and his intellectual mission in Timurid Herat. The original project was completed almost a decade and a half ago in my dissertation. The aim of this talk is to think about how to develop a framework to re-engage with Jami’s intellectual mission. The earlier project had two major shortcomings as a study of intellectual history. First\, it did not pay attention to poetry sufficiently. Second\, it achieved little to contextualize Jami in the intellectual traditions he was connected with. I would like to reflect on the ways in which one can deal with and incorporate these three issues from an intellectual point of view.\n In both poetry and scholarly writings\, the challenge seems to be showing how i) Jami is connected to other people/thoughts/ways of expression — contemporaneous with Jami or earlier\; ii) the meaning of these connections\, and in general Jami’s poetry within the socio-political context of his time.\n In my historical contextualization\, the starting point will be identifying i) the general characteristics of individual Timurid rulers (e.g. the rationality of Sultan-Abu Said)\; or ii) periods within the reign of a particular ruler if he has reigned relatively long (e.g. experimentation and consolidation periods of Sultan-Husayn Bayqara). Along with an attempt at developing a framework to reevaluate Jami from an intellectual point of view\, another major aim of this talk is to ask for help/advice about possible strategies to do that.

After drafting a novel for her senior honors thesis\, Allison went on to pitch\, sell\, and publish that thesis as her debut novel: A Tip for the Hangman (Doubleday\, Feb. 2021). Hangman is a historical thriller that follows the life of the 16th-century poet Christopher Marlowe and his secret career in service of Queen Elizabeth I's spymaster. (Her agent refers to the novel as \"the Dirtbag Kit Marlowe book\,\" a tagline Allison endorses.)\n \nAllison will share the inspiration and historical context behind her novel\, along with a behind-the-scenes look into the world of literary publishing. From the ins and outs of historical research to the white whale of signing with a literary agent\, she'll explain the lesser-known aspects of how a book makes it to print. She'll also answer any questions you care to ask about Early Modern spies\, a subject she delights in.\n \n\nAllison Epstein is a historical fiction author based in Chicago. By day\, she works as a marketing copywriter for a firm serving higher education and not-for-profit institutions. She earned her B.A. in English and creative writing from the University of Michigan in 2014 and her MFA in fiction from Northwestern University in 2020. When not writing\, she enjoys good theater and terrible puns.

This technological tension has recently shaken the sport of running in the form of shoe advances\, but many other sports have experienced and managed these same strains\, including swimming\, cycling\, tennis\, speed skating\, and many more. This seminar will explore how technological developments within a sport\, and the associated performance advantages they afford\, impact that sport sociologically. This panel will bring perspectives related to product availability and athlete sponsorship ties\, cultural perception and understanding of performance\, and developmental implications across myriad levels of sport (e.g.\, youth\, Olympic\, masters). This discussion will aim to inform our understanding of what is to be gained\, what might be lost\, and what can be managed as sport evolves with technological developments.

Electrified aircraft propulsion is a novel technology that has the potential to significantly reduce\, and even fully eliminate fuel consumption and aircraft emissions while allowing for more affordable and quieter flights. Electrification enables diverse propulsion architectures and fundamentally changes the relationship between the propulsion system and the airframe\, creating a very rich and complex aircraft design space with many exciting opportunities. However\, it also poses significant challenges due to technological bottlenecks\, lack of historical data\, and high levels of uncertainty. Thus\, potential environmental benefits can be easily diminished by suboptimal propulsion solutions.\n\nIn this talk\, I will address the diverse design space and the importance of performing architectural and operational trade studies in the early aircraft design stages. I will present a methodology to perform the sizing\, integration\, and performance evaluation of electrified aircraft. I will explore advanced design methods and surrogate modeling techniques to enable rapid evaluation of hundreds of sized and optimized designs. Finally\, I will outline some strategic areas for future research to maximize the environmental benefits of novel aircraft concepts.\n\nAbout the speaker...\n\nDr. Gökçin Çınar works as a Research Engineer at the Aerospace Systems Design Laboratory at Georgia Institute of Technology. Her main research interests include electrified aircraft and propulsion\, systems design and integration\, model-based engineering\, and advanced design methods. She is currently working on a range of government and industry funded research projects on novel aircraft technologies for greener aviation.\n\nDr. Çınar received her B.S. degree in Aerospace Engineering from Middle East Technical University and her M.S. and Ph.D. degrees in Aerospace Engineering from Georgia Institute of Technology. She serves as the Publications and Policy Chair of the AIAA Electrified Aircraft Technical Committee. She is also serving as the Technical Program Co-Chair for the 2021 AIAA/IEEE Electric Aircraft Technologies Symposium.

Once you've registered the joining information will be sent to your email.\n\nRegister at:\nhttps://myumi.ch/r895z\n\nCapacity in violence is generally understood to be key condition of the state-building process. As capacity is achieved and a state gains supremacy over would-be competitors\, the use of violence by the state is hypothesized to “wither-away\,” especially in states that have made it into the democratic camp. However\, my work demonstrates\, theoretically and empirically\, that conventional wisdom is inadequate\, and that rather than withering away\, political violence evolves according to the changing socio-political environment and varying tasks of the state.\n\nUsing principally cases stemming from South Korea\, a high capacity\, consolidated democracy as a lens for theory building and corroboration\, my publications (and co-authored book project) chronicle the evolution of political violence\, from the state`s mobilization of thugs to suppress opposition at the early stages of the state-building process\, through its collaboration with violence specialists for developmental projects\, to the manipulation of quasi-governmental organizations after democratization in the late 1980s. My research (and the topic of this discussion) looks at how political development\, i.e. democratization\, has produced new demands for—and constraints on—political violence and how post-authoritarian governments have responded.\n\nJonson N. Porteux received his PhD from the University of Michigan (Political Science) in 2013\, with a focus on comparative politics and international relations\, and a regional emphasis on East Asia. He publishes most extensively on the economic and political causes and consequences of violence and democratization. Most recently his work has been featured in Democratization and the Journal of East Asian Studies.

It takes a radical imagination to be an activist\, to envision a world that is not there. It takes imagination and that’s not far from art.” - Ava DuVernay\n\nThe BHM committee\, MESA’s social connectivity and CCI hope to generate thought provoking discussion\, engagement around advocacy\, activism and allyship this semester by presenting a series of films huddled around these topics\, areas that we believe require critical and intentional reflection year round. Each film presentation will conclude with a discussion from students\, professionals\, and artists familiar with the themes presented throughout the series and in the film. Each film and discussion will be available virtually and will take place the third Tuesday each month at 5:30 p.m. Tickets are available through MUTO for each film.

At first glance\, the constructed space is a shimmering homage to the bedroom disco—a sanctuary for uninhibited dance and self-expression. It has also become the setting from which many personal videos are made and shared widely on social media\, where platforms such as Instagram and TikTok have blurred the boundary between public and private. Projected into the space is a montage of casual videos shared by female-identifying and non-binary persons of SWANA* origin dancing solo in their rooms. To some\, the videos may seem innocent and innocuous\, but they can also be seen as acts of defiance that assert the autonomy of bodies that have been surveilled\, scrutinized\, and censored throughout history. Alongside these intimate moments is a separate reel showing political figures and protest movements from the SWANA region. The images demonstrate the fluctuating attitudes and regulations impacting human rights and freedoms based on gender\, and exemplify how—whether we are physically at a protest or sharing our physicality in virtual spaces—our bodies are engaged in some level of risk.\n*Southwest Asian/North African\n\nThis project is supported by a grant from the Efroymson Family Fund.

As a result of its minimal side-effect profile\, sleeve gastrectomy (SG) is currently the safest and most commonly performed bariatric surgery in the United States. Moreover\, this procedure is associated with changes in gut metabolites. In previous work\, we discovered that the host-produced compound cholic acid-7-sulfate (CA7S) is a gut-restricted TGR5 agonist with anti-diabetic properties and that this metabolite is elevated following SG. In new studies\, we have elucidated a microbiome-dependent pathway by which SG increases CA7S production. We found that a microbial metabolite\, lithocholic acid (LCA)\, is increased in murine portal veins post-SG and by activating the vitamin D receptor\, induces hepatic sulfotransferase expression to drive CA7S production. An SG-induced shift in the microbiome increases expression of the bile acid transporters Asbt and Ostα in the distal ileum\, a change that in turn facilitates selective transport of LCA across the gut epithelium. Cecal microbiota transplant from SG animals is sufficient to recreate the pathway in germ-free (GF) animals. Activation of this gut-liver pathway leads to CA7S synthesis and GLP-1 secretion\, for the first time causally connecting a microbial metabolite with the improvement of diabetic phenotypes following bariatric surgery.

We test this pathway among groups of various positions within the US racial hierarchy and find support for the proposed model.\n\nWilson\n\nTitle:\nA First Look at Infectious Disease Concealment\n\nAbstract:\nIn March\, 2020 a man hid his COVID-19 symptoms so that he could visit his wife and newborn child in the maternity ward of a Rochester\, New York hospital. In addition to putting everyone in the hospital at risk of infection\, his deception actually caused his wife to fall ill with the virus less than a week after giving birth. What psychological processes explain this kind of concealment behavior? Drawing on insights from the behavioral immune system and literature on concealable stigmatized identity\, I will discuss the prevalence of disease concealment and its unique social costs and benefits. In our first two studies (N = 367)\, we find that a large majority of college students and adults freely report times when they concealed infectious disease in social situations\, and that decisions to conceal depend on the audience they would be concealing from. In our next two studies (N = 307)\, we find that people report being less likely to conceal an illness when there is a higher risk of transmitting that illness to others\, and when the symptoms they would pass along could be particularly debilitating. Together\, these four studies set the foundation for further inquiry into mechanisms underlying infectious disease concealment UID:81899-20988903@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/81899 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:brown bag LOCATION:Off Campus Location CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20210625T095512 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20210217T121500 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20210217T124500 SUMMARY:Livestream / Virtual:(VIRTUAL): CEW+Inspire Midweek Mindfulness-Guided Sits DESCRIPTION:As part of the CEW+Inspire initiative\, CEW+ holds mindful meditation sits virtually on Wednesdays at 12:15.\n\nBeing present in the moment is a skill that can be learned when practiced on a regular basis and is especially important during these trying times. Psychological stress can damper your overall health\, affecting your ability to remain resilient in the face of challenges.

As human beings and engineers\, we must decide how we want to respond to what happened and how we want to move forward. Calls to improve our approach to diversity\, equity\, and inclusion (DEI) have coincided with the call to update our overall engineering curriculum. Over the years\, several initiatives have been launched to address such issues\, which primarily attempt to address perceived inadequacies in underrepresented students. However\, scarce efforts have been developed to address the engineering culture that has limited the full participation of women and people of color in engineering. Furthermore\, few of us in engineering have the knowledge\, skills\, or ability to productively engage with issues leading to the marginalization and social unrest. Rarely do we dare to apply our problem-solving or critical thinking approaches to how to educate or improving DEI. As a result\, the goal of this talk is to provide engineers with language to have an honest conversation about our individual and collective response to the inequity in engineering and realign our actions to improve engineering education. This impactful workshop will provide definitions and practical examples of key DEI concepts in engineering based on holistic interdisciplinary research.

Individuals and families from around the world are fleeing from war\, poverty\, and oppression. Attempts to enter our country have been met with physical and regulatory obstruction\, all in conflict with values many of us hold dear. Refugees and asylum seekers\, who are often invisible to those in power\, must rely on others to plead their collective cases to Congress.\n\nA group of Ann Arborites have decided to take action to address this injustice. The Washtenaw Refugee Coalition is a new interfaith group of passionate and dedicated individuals who are learning how to advocate on behalf of refugees and asylum seekers. You will be fascinated to hear the story of the group’s founding\, the training they have received\, and actions they have been taking. You may even find their cause to be one you want to embrace.\n\nPresenter Beth Wilensky is the founder and leader of the Washtenaw Refugee Coalition. She has served on the Board of Jewish Family Services (a local organization providing services to refugees)\, and is a Clinical Professor of Law in the Legal Practice Program at the University of Michigan.\n\nPreregistration is required via the OLLI website or phone. A link to access the presentation will be e-mailed to you approximately one week prior to the event.

Despite decades of efforts in studying its internal structure\, there are still a number of puzzles surrounding the proton such as its spin and the charge radius. The proton charge radius puzzle developed more than 10 ten years ago refers to a discrepancy of 5-7 standard deviations between the ultrahigh precise values of the proton charge radius determined from muonic hydrogen Lamb shift measurements and the CODATA values compiled from electron-proton scattering experiments and ordinary hydrogen spectroscopy measurements. In this talk following a short introduction\, I will focus on the proton charge radius puzzle\, the latest experimental results\, especially those from the PRad experiment at Jefferson Lab\, and the future outlook with the PRad-II experiment.\n UID:81714-20945432@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/81714 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Physics,Science LOCATION:Off Campus Location CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20210216T082754 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20210217T160000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20210217T173000 SUMMARY:Livestream / Virtual:Donia Human Rights Center Lecture.

(with David Argente\, Doireann Fitzgerald\, and Anthony Priolo) DESCRIPTION:Abstract:\nFirms are born small\, grow\, and die. We investigate an explanation for this process based on frictions in the accumulation of customers\, across and within markets segmented by geography. We use matched retail scanner and TV advertising data on consumer food to show that entrants grow both by adding customers in new markets and by reaching new customers in continuing markets. Growth in market share within markets is not associated with changes in markups\, but is associated with advertising. We use these facts to motivate and estimate a structural model of customer accumulation within and across markets. This allows us to estimate both the distribution of intrinsic heterogeneity across firms\, and frictions in the accumulation of customers. We find that these frictions contribute substantially to heterogeneity in firm size\, and to the gradual process of firm growth.\n\n* To join the seminar\, please contact at econ.events@umich.edu UID:81274-20879911@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/81274 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Economics,seminar LOCATION:Off Campus Location CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20210304T123120 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20210217T160000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20210217T170000 SUMMARY:Careers / Jobs:Prep Session: Michigan Teacher & Education Fair DESCRIPTION:The Michigan Teacher Recruitment Fair is March 16th and 17th.

Despite growing appreciation for the importance of 3D genome folding in evolution and disease\, we lack models for relating mutations in genome sequences to changes in genome structure and function. Towards that goal\, we discovered that the organization of gene regulatory domains within chromosomes and the specific sequences that sit at boundaries between domains are under strong negative selection in the human population and over primate evolution. Motivated by this signature of functional importance\, we developed a deep convolutional neural network\, called Akita\, that accurately predicts genome folding from DNA sequence alone. Representations learned by Akita underscore the importance of the structural protein CTCF but also reveal a complex grammar beyond CTCF binding sites that underlies genome folding. Akita enabled rapid in silico predictions for effects of sequence mutagenesis on the 3D genome\, including differences in genome folding across species and in disease cohorts\, which we are validating with CRISPR-edited genomes. This prediction-first strategy exemplifies my vision for a more proactive\, rather than reactive\, role for data science in biomedical research.\n\nhttps://umich-health.zoom.us/j/93929606089?pwd=SHh6R1FOQm8xMThRemdxTEFMWWpVdz09\n\nShort bio: Dr. Katherine S.
