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.

After registration\, you will receive a confirmation email with instructions on how to join the webinar.\n\nFor full details and schedule\, please visit: https://ii.umich.edu/armenian/news-events/all-events/workshops/february-2021--from-empire-to-nation-state--the-ottoman-armistic.html\n \n The First World War came to an end for the Ottoman Empire when the Armistice of Mudros was signed on October 30\, 1918. While the Ottoman government formed by the Committee of Union and Progress (CUP) embarked upon a series of armed and political campaigns to save the Empire from collapse\, Ottoman minorities such as Armenians\, Greeks\, Assyrians\, and Arabs suffered from genocide and famine. It is well documented that the demographic engineering policies of CUP resulted in a significant decrease of Armenian\, Greek and Assyrian communities in Anatolia\, and a famine in Arab provinces of the empire killed thousands. Even though the wartime was equal to a “cataclysm” for Ottoman “minorities”\, the beginning of the Armistice years remarked a new start\, an opportunity for revival and rebirth. While the Armenian community leadership was organizing relief activities to save genocide survivors who were scattered throughout the\n \n Empire\, they envisioned the establishment of a “United Armenia” with the support of the Allied Powers. Anatolian Romioi (Orthodox Greeks)\, Arabs\, and Kurds\, in a similar fashion\, were motivated to declare independence to map their nation-states during a time when the world was living what has been referred to as the “Wilsonian moment.” This workshop will revisit and re-explore the Ottoman Armistice and the transition from empire to ethno-nation-state from hitherto neglected perspectives of Ottoman “minorities” through the lens of history\, literature\, and political science disciplines.\n\nIf there is anything we can do to make this event accessible to you\, please contact us.

The shielding of GCRs by astrospheres is a fundamental\, open question whose answer is critical to assessing the habitability of exoplanets. But even before we study the shielding properties of other astrospheres to ascertain habitability\, we must understand why the only known astrosphere that harbors life\, Earth’s Sun’s heliosphere\, does so. Space science is at a pivotal point in generating new understandings of the heliosphere due to the flood of new in situ data from the Voyager 1 (V1)\, Voyager 2 (V2)\, and New Horizon spacecraft\, combined with the energetic neutral atom (ENA) maps generated by IBEX and Cassini. To date\, our best large-scale computer models fail to reproduce critical observations\, such as the size of the heliosphere\, the plasma speeds and directions\, and the width of the heliosheath.\n\nHeliospheric observations indicate that processes such as turbulence\, reconnection\, wave-particle interactions and thermal conduction play a crucial role in the outer layers of the solar system\; however\, these processes have not yet been included in current global models. Observations by Voyager indicate that suprathermal particles\, such as pickup ions (PUIs\, ionized particles formed from the interaction of the ionized solar wind with the neutral interstellar H atoms)\, carry most of the plasma pressure in outer layers of the solar system. How these suprathermal populations evolve in response to kinetic effects\, such as turbulence\, reconnection and acceleration\, is poorly understood\, but given their energy contribution they significantly impact global scales. Other remaining puzzles are: 1) The acceleration region and mechanism for anomalous cosmic rays (ACRs)\; the two Voyager spacecraft found no evidence of acceleration of high-energy ACRs at the termination shock (TS) but instead detected their increase of the ACRs as they moved across the heliosheath (HS). 2) The HS 30-50% thinner than current models predict 3) The magnetic field direction doesn’t change at the HP and we don’t know how far from the HP does the solar wind influence extend 4) The significant increase in Galactic Cosmic Rays (GCRs) just prior to the HP crossings by both V1 and V2\, and the unusual anisotropies observed in the LISM are not understood.\n\nIn this talk I will review some of the puzzles and advances being made in understanding some of the fundamental features of the heliosphere as well as the efforts being made in that regard by the SHIELD DRIVE Science Center (http://sites.bu.edu/shield-drive/). These aspects include the basic “shape” of the heliosphere\, the extent of its tail\, the nature of the heliosheath\, and the structure of the local interstellar medium (LISM) just upstream of the heliopause (HP).\n\nPlease join us!

However\, native MS can be challenging for smaller and more fragile membrane protein and transmembrane peptide complexes. To address this challenge\, we have used native MS to study small viral membrane protein complexes in both detergent micelles and lipid nanodiscs. Using charge reduction reagents for stabilization and advanced data analysis techniques to unravel complex spectra\, we discovered that viroporin complexes can be highly sensitive to their environment\, showing different oligomeric states in different lipids/detergents\, with different pH conditions\, and with addition of antiviral drugs. Unexpected oligomeric states have been observed that do not match existing structural models\, highlighting previously unseen behavior of these complexes. We have also studied assembly of antimicrobial peptide complexes in lipid nanodiscs. Antimicrobial peptides are also highly sensitive to the lipid environment\, showing unique assembly pathways that are controlled by the thickness of the lipid bilayer. Ultimately\, we expect these applications of native MS will reveal new insights into the biology of infectious disease and provide new directions for antiviral and antibacterial drug discovery. \nMichael Marty (University of Arizona) UID:78487-20052306@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/78487 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Biosciences,Chemistry,Science LOCATION:Off Campus Location CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20210213T200417 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20210218T160000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20210218T170000 SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:BME 500 Seminar: Adam Glaser DESCRIPTION:Seminar Abstract:\n\nNew developments in microscopy\, tissue clearing\, and fluorescent labeling are enabling unprecedented access to the structural and molecular contents of biological tissues.

In this talk\, I discuss lessons learned from three audience research projects I’ve conducted since my time as a graduate student at the University of Michigan. These projects include: Struggling for Ordinary: Media and Transgender Belonging in Everyday Life\, Purple States: Young\, Queer\, and Connected in Uncertain Times\, and COVID Connections: Media and Everyday Life During a Global Pandemic. For each project\, I discuss two findings from my research and share thoughts on the practice of conducting qualitative media inquiry. \n \nSmashing Trump's Star\nAndrea McDonnell\, Associate Professor of Communication & Media Studies at Emmanuel College\n\nLecture Abstract: Tourist sites dedicated to celebrity life and history provide visitors with an opportunity to engage with and celebrate famous figures who intrigue and inspire. But what happens when visitors use star sites not to revere\, but to resist? When shared on social media\, can personal gestures of defiance be transformed into political dialogue? Recent activity at Donald Trump’s star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame suggests that engagement with tourist sites\, however personal or ephemeral\, can function as a mode of political resistance\, one that demonstrates the fluidity of the celebrity sign and the public’s ability to exert agency over its meaning in our contemporary media landscape.

Specifically\, it will discuss the development of ideas about the human body\, population\, and disease that appeared in Iberian-Atlantic slave markets during the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries. The practices undergirding the development of the slave trade as a technological\, bureaucratic\, economic\, legal\, and intellectual enterprise went hand in hand with the appearance of new notions about risk\, disease\, nosology\, and population health that would become normative in subsequent decades. In analyzing the invisibility of both this history and the archives of the slave trade in traditional HSMT narratives\, this lecture will also examine the role that ideas about knowledge (and what constitutes knowledge) have had in shaping fundamental and exclusionary tenets in the histories of science and Medicine in Euro America.\n\nPablo F. Gómez is associate professor in the Department of Medical History and Bioethics\, and the Department of History at the University of Wisconsin-Madison. He works on histories of knowledge-making\, race\, and health and corporeality with a particular focus on Latin America\, the Caribbean\, and more largely the African Diaspora.

As a member of Dr. Krishna Garikipati’s Computational Physics group\, I am currently working on data driven modelling and am collaborating with several groups on applying these graph theoretic approaches to various systems of interest.\n\n\"GRAPH THEORETIC APPROACHES FOR PHYSICAL SYSTEMS\": Numerical analyses of physical systems are conventionally performed using direct numerical simulations\, that have proven highly successful\, yielding high fidelity solutions to very high dimensional problems\, such as boundary value problems with upwards of tens of millions of degrees of freedom. However\, there is always a balance to be met between the desire for higher accuracy and additional physics to be modeled\, and the complexity\, interpret-ability and ease of representation of such solutions. To aid in this dilemma\, I will be introducing a novel graph theoretic approach\, allowing for lower dimensional\, reduced order models to be produced\, given small amounts of high fidelity data. In this talk I will explain how such an approach allows for an intuitive representation of the states of a systems\, and how it is possible to use a non-local calculus\, allowing for rigorous operators and equations to be defined on the graph. I will then be discussing some implementation details\, and convey the generality\, validity\, and future applications of this framework through some example results from collaborations.\n\nYI ZHU: Yi is a 3rd year PhD candidate in Civil and Environmental Engineering & Scientific Computation. His research focuses on simulation\, design\, and fabrication of active origami systems for engineering devices\, and is particularly focused on micro-scale shape morphing systems inspired by origami.\n\n\"SIMULATION AND DESIGN OF MICRO-ORIGAMI SYSTEMS\": In this talk\, we will introduce some recent advancement in the simulation and the design of micro-origami systems. We will discuss the micro-origami structures we fabricated and the rapid simulation framework we developed to capture the behaviors of these active origami. We will focus on the simulation framework and demonstrate how we can capture the thermo-mechanically coupled folding behavior and contacts between origami panels effectively and rapidly. Finally\, we will introduce some ongoing work on extracting origami design principle with interpretable machine learning\, which demonstrates how we can use the simulation framework to create better origami design.\n\nRegister: https://umich.zoom.us/meeting/register/tJwrdeurpz4vEtUPKlRzUo1tQy3mskgineol UID:81278-20879917@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/81278 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:data,Research LOCATION:Off Campus Location - Register to receive Zoom login information CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20210305T123119 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20210218T160000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20210218T170000 SUMMARY:Careers / Jobs:Research Assistant Fellowship program Info session DESCRIPTION:The Consumer Financial Protection Bureau is hosting a information session to speak out our upcoming Research Assistant Fellowship program.

Prison-Industrial Complexity: On Carceral Material Worlds & Ethical Aporias in Ecuador DESCRIPTION:Virtual Event. Register at http://myumi.ch/R5D0Q\n\nChris Garces is Research Professor at Universidad San Francisco de Quito\, and a Visiting Invited Professor in the Law School at Universidad Andina Simón Bolívar\, Ecuador. His ethnographic interests range from the study of politics and religion—or contemporary political theologies–to the Western outgrowth of penal state politics\, and counter-histories of Catholic ethics in Latin America. His co-edited volume\, *Carceral Communities in Latin America: Troubling Prison Worlds in the 21st Century *(Palgrave Studies in Prisons and Penality)\, will be published in February 2021.\n \nEverywhere it seems\, democracy has been freighted with the psychic weight of punitive infrastructure. Symptomatically\, for most citizens\, a world without prisons is impossible even to imagine. But consider the flip side of this most curious problem: uncomfortable or intrusive memories—that in the name of enforcing justice and democratic order\, living human beings are being held in cages—publicly forgotten almost as soon as they are remembered. The prison is a machine for disappearing humans and remaking worlds. Carcerality as such boxes the prisoner into what might be called ethical aporias\, unrelenting state-imposed sacrifice and civil disregard\, or an experimental process of human disposal which nevertheless demands increasingly accelerated flows of exchange between free citizens and dehumanized offenders. In this talk\, I explore how even the most modest of prison technologies participate in penal infrastructure’s human unmaking and world-remaking processes. Taking into account Ecuador’s 20th century material history of a humble water spigot in a municipal prison\, I demonstrate the perverse tenacity of carceral relations and how penality itself—the state-sponsored ritual reproduction of punishment across the prison-neighborhood nexus—involves continuous\, albeit disavowed human experimentation on diverse citizen-subjects.\n \nLecture presented in conjunction with HIST197: Journeys & Stories\n\nFREE AND OPEN TO THE PUBLIC.\n\nCo-sponsors: Department of History\, Prison Creative Arts Project\, and The Quito Project\n---\nIf there is anything we can do to make this event accessible to you\, please contact us.

The site offered a rare opportunity in that respect because it had shrunk to a fraction of its original size before the great monumentalization phase. Thus\, Mid-Republican\, archaic\, and Iron Age remains lie directly under the surface. Thanks to the open-area excavation of over two acres of the ancient city\, important information about the long and complex formation process of central Italian urbanization has been acquired. \n\nThe Gabii Project aims to redefine the concept of \"big dig\" for the 21st century. In this sense\, it conceptualized the big dig as a logistical platform that makes it easier for a multiplicity of research agendas to be pursued. Methodological self-analysis and innovation are built into the field and recording practices. Digital\, online publication is leveraged as a way to disseminate data rapidly and thoroughly.\n\nZoom meeting room opens at 5:45\; lecture begins at 6:00. \n\nZoom Meeting ID: 980 2560 5670\nPasscode: 052246 UID:81920-20990905@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/81920 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Archaeology,Classical Studies,excavation,Lecture,Research,Virtual LOCATION:Off Campus Location CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20210201T121508 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20210218T180000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20210218T193000 SUMMARY:Livestream / Virtual:Stamps @ Home: A Conversation with Artists from the Exhibition Story\, Word\, Sound\, Sway DESCRIPTION:Join us on Thursday\, February 18\, 2021 at 6 pm to hear from four Stamps School alumni artists featured in the exhibition Story\, Word\, Sound\, Sway\, on view online and at Stamps Gallery January 18\, 2021 – February 28\, 2021. \n\nPanelists include:\n\n- Senghor Reid (BFA ’99)\n- Yvette Rock (MFA ’99)\n- Wes Taylor (BFA ’04)\n- Elizabeth Youngblood (BFA ’73)\n\nReid\, Rock\, Taylor\, and Youngblood will discuss the ways their creative work challenges the status quo and the role that artists play in breaking down the walls of oppression and injustice.

These women were housed in Nazareth Nursing Center in Gyeongju\, which served as a shelter. As spouses from the former colonizing power\, Japanese women in postwar Korea often became targets of both misogynic and ethnic violence and were not afforded social or domestic protection. Nazareth provided a permanent home for these women\, where Kim built close relationships with them to gain enough access to take photographs of their portraits and daily lives. These photographs\, alongside their oral testimonies\, provide material that highlights the overlooked history of Japanese women during and after post-liberation repatriation.\n \n Kim Jongwook is a freelance documentary photographer who was based in Gyeongju since 1987. Kim’s documentary photo project on the Japanese wives of Korean repatriates was featured in BBC (2019) and Hankyoreh Newspaper in Korea (2017). He presented the same project at Hiroshima University (2017) and the Jeonju International Festival in Korea (2014). Kim received his Ph.D from Kyeongju University for his research on this topic. Kim currently operates the Kim Jong Wook Photography Research Institute in Gyeongju.\n\nRegistration is required.

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.

Such a testing problem is related to transfer learning and causal inference. We develop a nonparametric procedure by combining recent advances in conformal prediction with some new ingredients such as a novel choice of conformity score and data-driven choices of weight and score functions. To our knowledge\, this is the first successful attempt of using conformal prediction for testing statistical hypotheses beyond exchangeability. Our method is suitable for modern machine learning scenarios where the data has high dimensionality and large sample sizes\, and can be effectively combined with existing classification algorithms to find good weight and score functions. The performance of the proposed method is demonstrated in synthetic and real data examples.\n\nhttp://www.stat.cmu.edu/people/faculty/jingle/\n\nThis seminar will be livestreamed via Zoom https://umich.zoom.us/j/94350208889\nThere will be a virtual reception to follow UID:80565-20740178@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/80565 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:seminar LOCATION:Off Campus Location CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20210204T110649 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20210219T100000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20210219T110000 SUMMARY:Livestream / Virtual:The Clements Bookworm: \"Framing Identity\" Online Exhibit DESCRIPTION:We live in a world that is influenced by visual imagery. A single photograph can incorporate our joy\, and accomplishments\, as well as our challenges and defeats. As the most photographed person of his time\, Frederick Douglass understood how to utilize photography as a tool for empowered self-representation. His lectures inspired others to participate in creating their own images that captured beauty and resilience within the Black Experience. This Bookworm talk explores photographic examples of Black empowerment from the \"Framing Identity\" online exhibit (clements.umich.edu/framing-identity) through a conversation with the Clements Library’s Joyce Bonk Fellow\, Samantha Hill\, and Graphics Curator Clayton Lewis. They will take a closer look at photography and literature in the Clements’ collections to explore how artists and intellectuals present themselves through the creative process.\n\n*The Clements Bookworm is a webinar series in which panelists discuss history topics. Recommended books\, articles\, and other resources are provided in each session. Inspired by the traditional Clements Library researcher tea time\, we invite you to pull up a chair at our [virtual] table. Live attendees are encouraged to post comments and questions\, respond to polls\, and add to our conversation and camaraderie.*\n\nThis episode was generously sponsored by an anonymous Clements Supporter.

After registration\, you will receive a confirmation email with instructions on how to join the webinar.\n\nFor full details and schedule\, please visit: https://ii.umich.edu/armenian/news-events/all-events/workshops/february-2021--from-empire-to-nation-state--the-ottoman-armistic.html\n \n The First World War came to an end for the Ottoman Empire when the Armistice of Mudros was signed on October 30\, 1918. While the Ottoman government formed by the Committee of Union and Progress (CUP) embarked upon a series of armed and political campaigns to save the Empire from collapse\, Ottoman minorities such as Armenians\, Greeks\, Assyrians\, and Arabs suffered from genocide and famine. It is well documented that the demographic engineering policies of CUP resulted in a significant decrease of Armenian\, Greek and Assyrian communities in Anatolia\, and a famine in Arab provinces of the empire killed thousands. Even though the wartime was equal to a “cataclysm” for Ottoman “minorities”\, the beginning of the Armistice years remarked a new start\, an opportunity for revival and rebirth. While the Armenian community leadership was organizing relief activities to save genocide survivors who were scattered throughout the Empire\, they envisioned the establishment of a “United Armenia” with the support of the Allied Powers. Anatolian Romioi (Orthodox Greeks)\, Arabs\, and Kurds\, in a similar fashion\, were motivated to declare independence to map their nation-states during a time when the world was living what has been referred to as the “Wilsonian moment.” This workshop will revisit and re-explore the Ottoman Armistice and the transition from empire to ethno-nation-state from hitherto neglected perspectives of Ottoman “minorities” through the lens of history\, literature\, and political science disciplines.\n \nIf there is anything we can do to make this event accessible to you\, please contact us.

Through four historic African American cemeteries\, this study explores cultural production among African Americans in the twentieth and twenty-first centuries. Shortly after emancipation\, Jacksonville (a historically Black town)\, gave birth to a vibrant African American aristocracy comprised of businesspeople and other professionals. In the early half of the twentieth century\, Jacksonville’s Black elite provided their community with legal protection\, healthcare\, vocational training\, employment opportunities\, and critical services such as life insurance and burial. Pinehurst\, Mount Olive\, Sunset Memorial\, and Memorial cemeteries were some of the few burial places for Black people living in Jacksonville during the early 1900s. Today\, the local government regards these cemeteries as ‘abandoned and neglected’ spaces. However\, the sites’ material culture and interviews with contemporary African American residents suggests that these burial grounds are important heritage sites for Jacksonville’s African American community. This study finds that commemorative practices are ongoing among twenty-first century African Americans. Additionally\, evidence suggests that the condition of these cemeteries reflects the social\, political\, and economic changes endured by Jacksonville’s African American community.\n\nNEW Webinar link https://umich.zoom.us/j/92431882124?pwd=Vnl4dkRQdThTSW16VnkxYUZ3YkwzQT09\nNEW Passcode 009801 UID:81755-20951376@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/81755 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Anthropology,Archaeology LOCATION:Off Campus Location CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20210210T144426 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20210219T120000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20210219T130000 SUMMARY:Livestream / Virtual:Book Talk | Halfway Home: Race\, Punishment\, and the Afterlife of Mass Incarceration DESCRIPTION:Each year\, nearly 600\,000 Americans are released from prison and join a population of 20 million people who live with a felony record.\n\nIncarcerated people in the U.S. are met by more than 48\,000 laws\, policies and administrative sanctions upon release\, a supervised society that Reuben Jonathan Miller calls “carceral citizenship.” \n\nJoin Professor Miller as he examines the afterlife of mass incarceration\, attending to how U.S. criminal justice policy has changed the social life and altered the contours of American Democracy one family at a time\, most often impacting poor Black families.

Empires of Vice: The Rise of Opium Prohibition Across Southeast Asia DESCRIPTION:Free and open to the public\; please register at http://bit.ly/3raW5lZ\n\nDuring the late nineteenth century\, opium was integral to European colonial rule in Southeast Asia. The taxation of opium was a major source of revenue for British and French colonizers\, who also derived moral authority from imposing a tax on a peculiar vice of their non-European subjects. Yet between the 1890s and the 1940s\, colonial states began to ban opium\, upsetting the very foundations of overseas rule—how did this happen? This talk explores the history of this dramatic reversal and colonial legacies that set the stage for the region’s drug problems today.\n \n Diana Kim challenges the conventional wisdom about opium prohibition—that it came about because doctors awoke to the dangers of drug addiction or that it was a response to moral crusaders—uncovering a more complex story deep within the colonial bureaucracy. Drawing on a wealth of archival evidence across Southeast Asia and Europe\, she shows how prohibition as made possible through the pivotal contributions of seemingly weak bureaucratic officials. Comparing British and French experiences across today’s Burma\, Cambodia\, Laos\, Malaysia\, Singapore\, and Vietnam\, Kim explains how the everyday work of local administrators delegitimized the taxing of opium\, which in turn made major anti-opium reforms possible. This talk is based on her book\, *Empires of Vice *(Princeton University Press)\, which reveals more generally the inner life of colonial bureaucracy\, illuminating how European rulers reconfigured their opium-entangled foundations of governance and durably shaped Southeast Asia’s political economy of illicit drugs.\n \n Diana Kim is Assistant Professor in the Edmund A. Walsh School of Foreign Service and a core faculty member of the Asian Studies Program. Her scholarship is animated by concerns with how modern states develop capacity to define people at the edges of respectable society\, constructing what it means to be illicit\, marginal\, and deviant. She received her Ph.D. in Political Science from the University of Chicago and formerly held a Postdoctoral Prize Fellowship in Economics\, History\, and Politics at Harvard University and CAORC fellowship with the Center for Khmer Studies. She teaches comparative politics and transnational histories of colonialism and empire in Southeast and East Asia\; and her first book\, *Empires of Vice: The Rise of Opium Prohibition Across Southeast Asia* was published in 2020 by Princeton University Press.\n \n------\nThe following text will be included on all II events unless you indicate otherwise:If there is anything we can do to make this event accessible to you\, please contact us.

The crustal slabs\, made of the dense eclogite metamorphosed from the Mid-Ocean Ridge Basalt\, provide one of the most important driving forces for slab subduction. The basaltic slab crust are also one of the major geochemical heterogeneities in the Earth’s interior. Locating these heterogeneities by comparing the experimentally determined seismic properties of eclogite with ambient mantle helps us to understand the Earth’s chemical evolution over geological time. I will present some of our recent experimental results on eclogite to reveal its seismic visibility in the Earth’s upper mantle. In addition\, compared with the extremely active Earth\, current-day Mars lacks ongoing tectonic activities such as volcanism\, marsquakes with large magnitude (e.g. M>4.0) and mountain building process. We hypothesize that the mantle convection inside Mars can be hindered if the density contrast between Martian crustal slabs and the ambient Martian mantle is sufficiently different from Earth. I will present high pressure-temperature phase equilibrium experiments and calculations of an eclogite metamorphosed from a near-primitive Martian basalt. Our results indicate the crustal slab is less dense than the ambient Martian mantle down to the depth of ~630 km. Sustained subduction on Mars is difficult if the Martian crust is represented by the shergottic basalt. Our result may also help explain the stability of some high volcano edifices (e.g. the Olympus Mons) on Mars.

Trautmann Honorary Lecture | Time\, Memory\, Oblivion: Social Frames and the Production of Collective Pasts DESCRIPTION:Autobiographical memories make individuals who they are but they are anchored in the frame of collective memory. These together that make us who we are. How then are these are made? And how do those processes bear on academic history?\n \nI will argue that collective memory world-wide has been made by how communities recollect pasts in order to shape their presents. The shaping of collective and historical memory must be seen in world-historical context. Analysis reaches out beyond the cloistered world of the formal academy to argue that “history” is but one kind of collective memory .\n\nCollective memory itself is the result of both remembering and forgetting\, of the preservation and the decay of record. These processes work through socio-political organizations that shape collective memory. The two disappear alongside each other.\n\nI will sketch the diverse ways these practices worked before colonial rule came to South Asia. I emphasize that the feebleness of organized power made it possible for many contradictory memories to coexist. The creation of a centralized educational system and the mass production of textbooks began to unify historical discourses under colonial auspices. For the first time\, students and their families were confronted by an authoritative\, unified narrative. That triggered opposition and the development of alternative anti-colonial histories. Finally\, these discourses diverged in the twentieth century under the impact of nationalism and decolonization.\n \nI will gesture therefore toward sources in many languages from different regions to provide an intellectual history of the ways in which socially recognized collective and historical memory has been made across the subcontinent. Most of the lecture will focus on the less studied period before Western imperialism and the imposition of Western modes of thought. I hope thereby to contribute to contemporary debates about historical memory and objective evidence in seemingly ‘post-truth’ world.\n\nSumit Guha\, Frances Higginbotham Nalle Professor in History at the University of Texas at Austin.\n\nBefore his current position\, Sumit Guha has taught at the St. Stephen’s College\, Delhi\, the Indian Institute of Management Kolkata\, Brown University and Rutgers University. He began as an economic historian with interests in demography and agriculture. These widened into the study of environmental and ethnic histories. His first book was *The Agrarian Economy of the Bombay Deccan 1818-1941* (Oxford University Press\, 1985) followed by *Environment and Ethnicity in India\, c. 1200-1991* (Cambridge University Press\, 1999) and *Health and Population in South Asia from earliest times to the present* (Permanent Black\, and Charles Hurst & Co.\, 2001). This was followed by *Beyond Caste: Identity and Power in South Asia\, Past and Present* (E.J. Brill\, 2013). A corrected Indian edition appeared from Permanent Black\, Ranikhet\, 2016.\n\nHis recent book *History and Collective Memory in South Asia\, 1200–2000* was published by the University of Washington Press in October 2019. In Spring 2021\, the Association for Asian Studies will publish his newest work\, *Tribe and State in Asia* through Columbia University Press. \n\nRegistration for this Zoom lecture is required: https://umich.zoom.us/meeting/register/tJIlcuCgqjgvG9Mij4KP5nymLs_cXh4sL5NW\n\nIf you are a person with a disability who requires an accommodation to attend this event\, please reach out to us at csas@umich.edu at least 2 weeks in advance of this event.

The optimistic narrative of transition first became impatient with the slowness and hesitancy of the process\, then suffered from the uncertainty of the moving or even vanishing target\, and was finally abandoned by scholars as it became clear that the post-Soviet nation-states were taking shape in some yet unprecedented forms that required unbiased analysis. \n \nThe place of optimistic teleologies has been taken by hindsight-driven narratives portraying the collapse of the Soviet Union as a traumatogenic event and the culture of the succeeding period as trapped in the state of the ‘post-’. In this paper I will take post-socialist theories of cultural trauma as my starting point and test them against a number of case studies\, both musical and more broadly cultural. I will then consider the double-edged nature of the “post-traumatic” narrative which can be utilised by both the supporters and opponents of the current political order in Russia\, and the difficulties this creates for Western observers. \n\n\nMarina Frolova-Walker FBA is Professor of Music History at the Faculty of Music\, University of Cambridge\, Fellow of Clare College\, Cambridge\, and currently Professor of Music at Gresham College\, London. She is the author of Russian Music and Nationalism from Glinka to Stalin (Yale\, 2007)\, Stalin's Music Prize: Soviet Culture and Politics (Yale\, 2016)\, and co-author (with Jonathan Walker) of Music and Soviet Power\, 1917–32 (Boydell\, 2012).  In 2015 she was awarded the Edward J. Dent Medal by the Royal Musical Association for ‘outstanding contribution to musicology’.\n\nAfter registering\, you will receive a confirmation email containing information about joining the meeting.

DESCRIPTION:“Can You Hear Me?” is a documentary film that follows internationally celebrated Spanish artist Jaume Plensa for a year and a half\, offering audiences an unfiltered look into his artistic process.

Avant Jazz from Poland: Free Improvisations by Mikołaj Trzaska and Macio Moretti DESCRIPTION:The Copernicus Center for Polish Studies presents a concert streamed from Warsaw featuring two of the finest innovative progressive musicians in Poland\, which has become one of the most important centers of jazz in Europe. This concert was organized to illustrate the lecture by Maciej Lewenstein on “Free Improvisation and Jazz Avant-Garde in Poland: From Tomasz Stańko to Mikołaj Trzaska\,” that will be broadcast on Thursday\, February 18\, 2021 at 12 PM. Trzaska first performed in Ann Arbor in 2010 in a duet with the magnificent trombonist Steve Swell at the Kerrytown Concert House\, and returned in 2013 as the leader of Shofar\, a trio that reinvents traditional Jewish music though free improvisation.\n \nMikołaj Trzaska—saxophonist\, bass clarinetist\, and film score composer—grew out of yass\, a socio-artistic movement that brazenly challenged the rigidity of the institutionalized mainstream Polish jazz environment during the 1980s and 1990s. Free from any specific doctrine and open to all forms of artistic expression\, the musicians successfully impacted the jazz scene in the country. Trzaska was the co-founder of the most important yass group—the celebrated Miłość ensemble that lasted\, off and on\, from 1988 to 2002\, and the of the equally creative Łoskot\, founded in 1993. Although the impetus of yass faded away many years ago\, Trzaska's status remained and he went on to become one of the main leaders of the Polish scene\, working as well with the top tier of international improvisors. After the yass period\, he recorded a few concentrated quieter albums with the renowned Oleś brothers bass/drum duo. Trzaska has accompanied poets such as Marcin Świetlicki and Jurii Andrukhovych\, and created musical-literary projects with the renowned Polish writer/journalist/critic Andrzej Stasiuk. Today\, he works with many groups\, including his own international trio Volumen\, Ken Vandermark’s Resonance Ensemble\, Magic with Joe McPhee\, and the unique trio Shofar with Raphael Rogiński and Macio Moretti\, which explores unique new improvisational perspectives on traditional Jewish music. He has also established himself as a major award-winning film music composer\, working with the director Wojciech Smarzowski. But his main focus of self-realization is grounded in radical free jazz: he travels the world cooperating with some of the world’s major improvisors such as Peter Brötzmann\, Joe McPhee\, and Ken Vandermark.\n \nMacio Moretti is a drummer and bassist (and occasionally a poor singer and even poorer guitar player) who works in many genres\, from avant metal to jazz. He has founded or co-founded so many musical groups and organizations that it is practically impossible to count them\, but bands such as Mitch & Mitch and LXMP\, as well as the recording label Lado ABC\, might be the most important of them. With these aforementioned bands he has had the pleasure of recording and releasing records with major artists such as Kazuhisa Uchihashi\, Felix Kubin\, Clayton Thomas\, Kassin\, and Zbigniew Wodecki. Besides all this\, he is also an award-winning graphic designer\, the father of two\, a bread maniac\, and has absolutely no interest in motorization.\n \nThis concert is presented in partnership with the Michigan Theater\, and registration is available at https://www.michtheater.org/avant-jazz-poland/\n\nIf there is anything we can do to make this event accessible to you\, please contact us at weisercenter@umich.edu.

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.

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.

Avant Jazz from Poland: Free Improvisations by Mikołaj Trzaska and Macio Moretti DESCRIPTION:The Copernicus Center for Polish Studies presents a concert streamed from Warsaw featuring two of the finest innovative progressive musicians in Poland\, which has become one of the most important centers of jazz in Europe. This concert was organized to illustrate the lecture by Maciej Lewenstein on “Free Improvisation and Jazz Avant-Garde in Poland: From Tomasz Stańko to Mikołaj Trzaska\,” that will be broadcast on Thursday\, February 18\, 2021 at 12 PM. Trzaska first performed in Ann Arbor in 2010 in a duet with the magnificent trombonist Steve Swell at the Kerrytown Concert House\, and returned in 2013 as the leader of Shofar\, a trio that reinvents traditional Jewish music though free improvisation.\n \nMikołaj Trzaska—saxophonist\, bass clarinetist\, and film score composer—grew out of yass\, a socio-artistic movement that brazenly challenged the rigidity of the institutionalized mainstream Polish jazz environment during the 1980s and 1990s. Free from any specific doctrine and open to all forms of artistic expression\, the musicians successfully impacted the jazz scene in the country. Trzaska was the co-founder of the most important yass group—the celebrated Miłość ensemble that lasted\, off and on\, from 1988 to 2002\, and the of the equally creative Łoskot\, founded in 1993. Although the impetus of yass faded away many years ago\, Trzaska's status remained and he went on to become one of the main leaders of the Polish scene\, working as well with the top tier of international improvisors. After the yass period\, he recorded a few concentrated quieter albums with the renowned Oleś brothers bass/drum duo. Trzaska has accompanied poets such as Marcin Świetlicki and Jurii Andrukhovych\, and created musical-literary projects with the renowned Polish writer/journalist/critic Andrzej Stasiuk. Today\, he works with many groups\, including his own international trio Volumen\, Ken Vandermark’s Resonance Ensemble\, Magic with Joe McPhee\, and the unique trio Shofar with Raphael Rogiński and Macio Moretti\, which explores unique new improvisational perspectives on traditional Jewish music. He has also established himself as a major award-winning film music composer\, working with the director Wojciech Smarzowski. But his main focus of self-realization is grounded in radical free jazz: he travels the world cooperating with some of the world’s major improvisors such as Peter Brötzmann\, Joe McPhee\, and Ken Vandermark.\n \nMacio Moretti is a drummer and bassist (and occasionally a poor singer and even poorer guitar player) who works in many genres\, from avant metal to jazz. He has founded or co-founded so many musical groups and organizations that it is practically impossible to count them\, but bands such as Mitch & Mitch and LXMP\, as well as the recording label Lado ABC\, might be the most important of them. With these aforementioned bands he has had the pleasure of recording and releasing records with major artists such as Kazuhisa Uchihashi\, Felix Kubin\, Clayton Thomas\, Kassin\, and Zbigniew Wodecki. Besides all this\, he is also an award-winning graphic designer\, the father of two\, a bread maniac\, and has absolutely no interest in motorization.\n \nThis concert is presented in partnership with the Michigan Theater\, and registration is available at https://www.michtheater.org/avant-jazz-poland/\n\nIf there is anything we can do to make this event accessible to you\, please contact us at weisercenter@umich.edu.

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.

Our aim\, while it is ultimately in the hands of our participants\, is to facilitate a long-term behavior change which will change the norms and culture around clothing. We want a world in which clothing signifies self-expression\, but not at the cost of a pristine environment and human dignity.

Winner of the Lion of the Future Award for best Debut Feature at the Venice Film Festival\, YOU WILL DIE AT TWENTY is visually sumptuous “coming-of-death” fable. During her son’s naming ceremony\, a Sheikh predicts that Sakina’s child will die at the age of 20. Haunted by this prophecy\, Sakina becomes overly protective of her son Muzamil\, who grows up knowing about his fate. As Muzamil escapes Sakina’s ever-watchful eye\, he encounters friends\, ideas and challenges that make him question his destiny. Sudan’s first Oscar submission\, YOU WILL DIE AT TWENTY is an auspicious debut and a moving meditation on what it means to live in the present.\n\nCo-sponsor: Michigan Theatre UID:82514-21114067@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/82514 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:center for middle eastern and north african studies,Film,Middle East Studies LOCATION:Off Campus Location CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20210217T133137 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20210222T080000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20210222T230000 SUMMARY:Exhibition:For Your Eyes Only DESCRIPTION:Please Note: This exhibition is designed to be viewed through the gallery window on Thayer St.\n\nYasmine Nasser Diaz is the 2021 Efroymson Emerging Artist at the Institute for the Humanities.\n\nFor Your Eyes Only is the latest iteration of multidisciplinary artist Yasmine Nasser Diaz’s bedroom installation. 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.

DESCRIPTION:Please join us for MUSE 2021's kick-off keynote speaker\, Jeremy Orr\, Esq. \n\nJeremy Orr is a Senior Attorney for the Natural Resources Defense Council who focuses on drinking water and source water protection issues\, working to ensure that everyone has access to safe\, sufficient\, and affordable drinking water. With a background in grassroots community organizing and public interest law\, Orr most recently served as the national state program director for the Peoples Climate Movement and as an environmental justice coordinator for the Transnational Environmental Law Clinic. Orr holds a bachelor’s\, master’s\, and law degree from Michigan State University.\n\nKeynote Presentation Abstract: At their core\, sustainability\, environmental protection\, and conservation should all be rooted in policies that seek to advance environmental and public health. Yet\, there are times when those policies not only fall short of those goals\, but also result in disproportionate impacts on the most vulnerable populations —namely\, Black\, Brown\, and Indigenous people. Since policies are man-made\, it is critical that we as professionals in the field constantly take stock of our racial biases and how those biases manifest in our work. In my keynote\, I will explore the presence of environmental injustice\, racism\, and implicit bias in our work and how we can prevent\, remedy\, and reconcile those harms moving forward.

Based on over a decade of research and fieldwork in many disciplines—including history and historiography\; anthropology\, ethnography\, and ethnomusicology\; political economy and geography\; linguistics\; philosophy\; and the history of science and technology—the book presented a radically different perspective than that presented by received opinion.\nGiven the radical and iconoclastic nature of Alcalay’s perspective\, *After Jews and Arabs* met great resistance in attempts to publish it. Though completed and already circulating in 1989\, it didn’t appear until 1993. In addition\, when the book was published\, there wasn’t enough space to include its original bibliography\, a foundational part of the project.\nThis spring\, *A Bibliography for “After Jews and Arabs”* will appear with Punctum Books\, presenting the original and unchanged bibliography as a glimpse into the historical record of a unique scholarly\, political\, poetic\, and cultural journey\, along with three accompanying texts. JMRN is delighted to mark the publication of *A Bibliography for “After Jews and Arabs”* and reflect on the legacy of *After Jews and Arabs*\, nearly 30 years later\, with a conversation between Ammiel Alcalay and Gil Anidjar.\n\n\nPoet\, novelist\, translator\, critic\, and scholar Ammiel Alcalay teaches at Queens College and The Graduate Center\, CUNY. His books include *After Jews and Arabs*\, *Memories of Our Future*\, *Islanders\, neither wit nor gold: from then\, from the warring factions\, and a little history*. Forthcoming books include the co-edited *A Dove in Flight: Poems by Faraj Bayrakdar*\, with Shareah Taleghani and the New York Translation Collective\, a poem sequence\, Ghost Talk\, and *A Bibliography for After Jews & Arabs*. He was given a 2017 American Book Award from The Before Columbus Foundation for his work as founder and General Editor of *Lost & Found: The CUNY Poetics Document Initiative *(lostandfoundbooks.org).\n\nGil Anidjar teaches in the Department of Religion and the Department of Middle Eastern\, South Asian\, and African Studies at Columbia University. He is the author\, among other books\, of *The Jew\, the Arab: A History of the Enemy *(Stanford 2003) and *Semites: Race\, Religion\, Literature* (Stanford 2008). \n\n\nAdvance Registration Required: https://umich.zoom.us/meeting/register/tJEocu2spz8iH9Uph5s5TKi75jcy7IUrH3jk UID:81200-20872026@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/81200 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Jewish Studies LOCATION:Off Campus Location CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20210208T104410 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20210222T120000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20210222T133000 SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Insisting on Immigrant Belonging\, 46 and Beyond DESCRIPTION:The federal response to immigration has shifted under the Biden administration\, but executive orders alone cannot undo the historical stigma\, violence and exploitation suffered by immigrant communities.

Author of Hatemonger: Stephen Miller\, Donald Trump\, and the White Nationalist Agenda.\n\nThis conversation is the first of NCID's series — Forgotten Bodies: Conversations on Research and Recognition. This series elevates research that inspires or demands new paradigms of human dignity. The title is borrowed from poet Claudia Rankine’s declaration\, “I am invested in keeping present the forgotten bodies.” Each conversation provides models of relevant\, necessary research that resists past patterns of exclusion and expands our sense of community. Authors will discuss recent projects\, the process of writing as a political act and their vision for informing activism\, policy and practice.

This behavior gives rise to a myriad of fascinating out-of-equilibrium phenomena such as phase separation in the absence of attractive interactions and directional transport through funnel-shaped obstacles or around gear-like objects. I will start by giving a brief overview of my research studying how the physics of passive/equilibrium systems changes as one gradually increases the level of activity. I will then focus on how weakly active particles behave near different types or shapes of boundaries in various geometries. A weakly active particle is one where regular diffusion cannot be neglected and activity can be treated perturbatively. This limit of weak activity allows us to develop a relatively simple method for analytically calculating properties such as the density\, orientations\, and flows of these particles near boundaries. I will show that this method is quite versatile by applying it to weakly active particles in several geometries: (1) confinement in 1D\, (2) confinement in a wedge-shaped region\, (3) absorption around a sphere\, and finally (4) flows near a rough boundary. These results in the limit of weak activity provides some insight into how active particles behave near boundaries.\n\n\n UID:82272-21062641@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/82272 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Physics,Science LOCATION:Off Campus Location CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20210215T123837 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20210222T120000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20210222T130000 SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:The Potential (and Pitfalls) using Epigenetics for Examining Social and Health Inequalities DESCRIPTION:Contact PSC Office for Zoom details.\n\nEpigenetics\, and specifically DNA methylation\, is rapidly increasing in use in the social and health sciences because of its clear potential to link basic biological processes to social and physical exposures. Using different DNA methylation measures can provide key insights into the health consequences of inequities\, including measures of biological aging (i.e. epigenetic clocks)\, biomarkers of disease\, and residues of social and environmental exposures. However\, several key assumptions are yet to be fully examined that fall within classic demographic considerations. These include the reliability of the measures\, several population considerations (i.e. human and cellular population characteristics)\, and longitudinal change. Using longitudinal DNA methylation data (ages 9 and 15) from the Fragile Families and Child Wellbeing Study\, this presentation will show both the potential and concerns of using epigenetic data for social and health research from a population studies perspective.\n\n\nBIO: \nDr. Colter Mitchell’s research utilizes a range of biological data types such as epigenetics\, neuroimaging\, and genetics to better understand how social conditions shape population health. In particular\, his work uses these biomarkers to elucidate pathways by which social inequalities cause health inequalities. This research uses longitudinal population-based studies where biological data are collected at multiple timepoints. His research also includes the development of new methods for integrating the collection and analysis of biological and social data.\n\nPopulation Studies Center (PSC) Brown Bag seminars highlight recent research in population studies and serve as a focal point for building our research community.\n\nContact PSC Office for Zoom details.

These data\, generated by new technologies as well as old approaches\, provide the opportunity to systematically extract biological patterns that were previously difficult to observe. I’ll share vignettes focusing on three areas: 1) how we can use large-scale public data to better understand data for which few observations are available\; 2) some work to understand why large-scale integrative analyses are beneficial\; and 3) how machine learning can help to produce more datasets suitable for integration while maintaining participant privacy.\n\nDr. Casey Greene is an Associate Professor of Systems Pharmacology and Translational Therapeutics in the Perelman School of Medicine at the University of Pennsylvania and the Director of the Childhood Cancer Data Lab\, powered by Alex’s Lemonade Stand Foundation. His lab develops machine learning methods that integrate distinct large-scale datasets to extract the rich and intrinsic information embedded in such integrated data. This approach reveals underlying principles of genetics\, cellular environments\, and cellular responses to that environment. Casey’s devotion to the analysis of publicly available data doesn’t stop in the lab. In 2016\, Casey established the “Research Parasite Awards” after an editorial in the New England Journal of Medicine deemed scientists who analyze other scientists’ data “research parasites.” These honors\, accompanied by a cash prize\, are awarded to scientists who rigorously reanalyze other people’s data to learn something new.

DESCRIPTION:Say Her Name…Too\n\nThis will be a discussion moderated by Dr. Antonio C. Cuyler and Professor Lawrence M. Jackson about the spaces that lie between Dance and Social Activism. This event will feature a screen dance viewing of Dance artist Lawrence M. Jackson’s work\, “Say Her Name…Too.\" A short screen dance\, this work will combine cinematic elements with choreography and explores the lives of 5 Black women who died at the hands of law enforcement. The goal of this work is to bring awareness to the often-invisible names and stories of Black women and girls who have been victimized by racist police violence. Black women have been killed by the police at alarming rates\, though we rarely hear their names. Knowing their names is a necessary but not a sufficient condition for lifting up their stories which in turn provides a much clearer view of the wide-ranging circumstances that make Black women’s bodies disproportionately subject to police violence. To lift up their stories\, and illuminate police violence against Black women\, we need to know who they are\, how they lived\, and why they suffered at the hands of police…this film aims to do just that… UID:82381-21088317@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/82381 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Academics,Activism,Africa,African American,african and african american studies,african and afroamerican studies,African Diaspora,African Studies,African Studies Center,american culture,Anti-racism,cultural,Culture,Dance,Department Of American Culture,dialogue,Discussion,Diversity,Diversity Equity and Inclusion,First Generation,First Year Experience,first year students,History,Identity,Inclusion,Leadership,MESA,Multicultural,Music,Social Justice,Student Affairs,Theater,Virtual LOCATION:Off Campus Location CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20210309T123111 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20210222T173000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20210222T184500 SUMMARY:Careers / Jobs:Getting to Know Perella Weinberg Partners Webinar DESCRIPTION:Join us for our Getting To Know PWP Virtual Webinars!

A philosophical linkage here is the reductionism conjecture\, assuming that the former (i.e.\, a bulk substance) is reducible to the latter (i.e.\, simpler molecules). The reductionism approach has harvested great success but does not always work well. For example\, when molecules are aggregated\, the aggregate may show totally different behaviors or properties from its molecular constituents. Some luminogens\, for instance\, do not emit light upon UV excitation as molecular species\, but their aggregates luminescence efficiently. This photophysical effect is known as aggregation-induced emission\, which manifests that a new property can emerge at aggregate level. In contrast to reductionism\, properties of an aggregate are not necessarily a simple\, linear addition of those of its molecular components\, but affected in a convoluted fashion by different factors\, such as quantity (number of constituents)\, geometry (size\, shape and dimension)\, morphology (amorphous or crystalline) and interaction (attraction or repulsion). Decipherment of such a complex system calls for the development of aggregology\, a new scientific framework for aggregate study. Understanding the operations and interplays of antagonism\, synergism\, emergentism\, multiplicity\, etc. in an aggregate system is of great scientific value and has far-reaching technological implications. Aggregology study will generate new laws\, rules\, models\, hypotheses\, diagrams\, etc. and create new knowledge to boost our comprehension of natural processes and to solve the issues and problems unsolvable by the traditional reductionism approach. The establishment of new fundamental principles and working mechanisms at the aggregate level will enable rational design of novel aggregate systems and judicious development of new advanced materials. It is envisioned that aggregology study will lead to a paradigm shift in research epistemology and methodology and open up new avenues for exploration and innovation at higher levels of structural hierarchy and system complexity.\nBen Zhong Tang UID:81110-20850475@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/81110 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Biosciences,Chemistry,Science LOCATION:Off Campus Location CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20210329T153212 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20210223T080000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20210223T230000 SUMMARY:Conference / Symposium:Become a UROP Spring Symposium Judge DESCRIPTION:Provide your expertise during the 2021 Virtual Spring Research Symposium on April 22nd.

For instructions\, please email cmenas@umich.edu with the subject “Request to watch ‘You Will Die at Twenty'”\n \n About the movie:\n NYTimes Critics Pick! Winner of the Lion of the Future Award for best Debut Feature at the Venice Film Festival\, YOU WILL DIE AT TWENTY is visually sumptuous “coming-of-death” fable. During her son’s naming ceremony\, a Sheikh predicts that Sakina’s child will die at the age of 20. Haunted by this prophecy\, Sakina becomes overly protective of her son Muzamil\, who grows up knowing about his fate. As Muzamil escapes Sakina’s ever-watchful eye\, he encounters friends\, ideas and challenges that make him question his destiny. Sudan’s first Oscar submission\, YOU WILL DIE AT TWENTY is an auspicious debut and a moving meditation on what it means to live in the present.\n\nCo-sponsor: Michigan Theatre UID:82514-21114068@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/82514 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:center for middle eastern and north african studies,Film,Middle East Studies LOCATION:Off Campus Location CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20210211T091314 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20210223T080000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20210223T090000 SUMMARY:Livestream / Virtual:College of Engineering Stressbusters: Coffee Chat DESCRIPTION:Life has been anything but normal this past year and many of you have found some amazing new hobbies\, workshops\, and virtual tours to occupy your time at home.\n\nJoin the Engineering C.A.R.E.

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 mechanism is similar in spirit to thermophoretic drift in colloidal suspensions\, where particles gravitate to low-temperature regions. The difference is that here instead of suspended particles in a bath\, we think of the dynamics of a complex system's state in its full high-dimensional configuration space. The temperature landscape is then replaced by what we call \"Rattling landscape\,\" which reflects how different system states respond to the driving forces. This way the system gravitates towards configurations that have special response properties to the external forces\, giving the impression that it \"adapts to its environment.\" As a proof of principle\, we use our theory to predict and control the behavior of a simple robotic swarm.

Using examples drawn from the history of Chinese traumatology during the 7th to 18th centuries\, Dr. Wu will discuss the place of the physical and material body in Chinese medical thought and show how awareness of body structure was in fact intertwined with understandings of function.\n \n Yi-Li Wu is an Associate Professor in the Department of Women’s and Gender Studies and the Department of History at the University of Michigan\, Ann Arbor. Her research investigates the intersections of society\, culture\, and the body in the history of Chinese medicine\, with special emphasis on the late imperial period (16th to 19th centuries). Her publications include “Reproducing Women: Medicine\, Metaphor\, and Childbirth in Late Imperial China” (University of California Press\, 2010)\, as well as articles on medical illustration\, forensic medicine\, bone setting\, breast cancer\, and Chinese views of Western anatomical science. She is currently completing a book manuscript on the history of traumatology in China.\n \nIf there is anything we can do to make this event accessible to you\, please contact us.

This transformation has generated negative consequences for civic life\, but has also shown significant promise for the democratization of knowledge in and outside of institutions of higher education. In social media\, teachers and researchers have found efficient platforms for sharing their expertise with ever widening and diverse audiences. Yet\, the impact of social media on specific academic disciplines such as archaeology remains only partially examined. This roundtable features five archaeologists who actively use social media platforms to educate public audiences about archaeology. The panelists will discuss their particular approaches to using social media for archaeological education and their views on best practices for social media based outreach. The roundtable will also explore how social media is changing the discipline of archaeology as it begins to play a more central role in the creation and dissemination of archaeological knowledge. These questions are key to anticipating archaeology's future in higher education and its continued vitality for the public's understanding of the past.\n\n*Erina Baci\, Facilitator - University of Michigan\, PhD Student UMMAA\n*Raven Todd DaSilva\, Panelist - University College London\, MA Candidate Archaeological Conservator\n*Connor Johnen\, Panelist - University of Wyoming\, MA CRM Archaeologist | GIS Tech\n*Natasha Billson\, Panelist - Bournemouth University\, BSc CRM Senior Archaeologist | TV Presenter\n*David Ian Howe\, Panelist - University of Wyoming\, MA Laboratory Manager\n*Carlton Shield Chief Gover\, Panelist - CU Boulder\, PhD Student\, Museum of the Pawnee Nation UID:81971-20998837@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/81971 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Anthropology,Archaeology LOCATION:Off Campus Location CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20210310T063104 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20210223T120000 SUMMARY:Careers / Jobs:Veeva Systems 2021 Virtual Workshops DESCRIPTION:We are ready for another season of Veeva Hosted workshops led by our University Recruiters.

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.

Understanding how coastal ecosystems are being impacted by climate change\, and how nuisance mosquito populations are changing\, is critical to ensuring coastal managers make the most informed decisions going forward.\n\nIn this webinar\, project team members will describe how data-collection\, mapping\, and modeling efforts have resulted in increased clarity about marsh habitat change to inform mosquito control and coastal restoration efforts in New Jersey. Future modeling and marsh‐upland edge mapping suggest that the marsh‐upland is and will be a hotspot for change\, and field sampling confirmed that these “new” habitats can serve as breeding areas for mosquitoes. The team also developed environmental DNA (eDNA) assays for the most common salt marsh mosquitoes in the Middle Atlantic United States. Working closely with mosquito control agency personnel\, the team has made major advancements in mosquito surveillance through the deployment of drone-based sampling of breeding pools paired with the eDNA analyses. The team also developed outreach materials to inform the public about health risks posed by mosquitoes\, including how climate change might exacerbate those risks\, and a module for middle/high school educators.

Furthermore\, these societal-scale infrastructures generate large amounts of data upon which decisions regarding operational safety\, efficiency\, and reliability must be made. Therefore\, understanding the characteristics of performance measures such as air traffic delays is critical for developing ways to mitigate their significant economic and environmental impacts.\n\nI will focus on network behavior and performance during disruptions (e.g.\, thunderstorms\, nor'easters\, hurricanes)\, and discuss how airport delays can be viewed as graph-supported signals\, amenable to a variety of spectral and graph signal processing-based methods. Through this analysis\, I characterize the spatial distribution of delays across a network of airports\, highlighting key differences in delay dynamics between different types of disruptions and among different airline networks. I will then touch on some recent work regarding low-dimensional representations of airport network delays and how to use these representations to develop control and traffic flow management strategies. Finally\, I will briefly discuss some salient research directions of interest to me\, such as developing integrated solutions for managing disruptions in networks\, gaining a better understand of graph-supported dynamical systems\, and exploring issues of privacy in emerging aerospace mobility systems (e.g.\, UAS/AAM).\n\nAbout the speaker...\n\nMax is a PhD Candidate in the Department of Aeronautics and Astronautics (AeroAstro) at MIT. He is advised by Prof. Hamsa Balakrishnan\, and is affiliated with the Dynamics\, Infrastructure Networks\, and Mobility (DINaMo) Research Group as well as the International Center for Air Transportation (ICAT). Max received a BSE in Electrical Engineering and Mathematics (2018)\, as well as an MSE in Systems Engineering (2018)\, both from the University of Pennsylvania. Broadly\, he is interested in the analysis\, control\, and optimization of networks and networked processes\, signal processing over irregular domains and manifolds\, and geometric/topological data analysis\, with an eye towards applications in air transportation systems and other societal-scale networks. He is the recipient of the Federal Aviation Administration RAISE Award (2018)\, a National Science Foundation Graduate Research Fellowship (2018)\, and the Wellington and Irene Loh Fellowship from MIT (2019)\, as well as several best paper awards from ICRAT and the ATM R&D Seminar\, two joint FAA-Eurocontrol conferences.

The seminar is part of the Biosciences Scientific Research Initiative (Exploratory Opportunity).\n \nThe Model System revolution (which began in the 1980s and continues to this day) was driven by development of powerful genetic tools in a small group of organisms. While these popular models have driven major advances in many fields\, they represent a narrow slice of biological diversity. Evolution has created a smorgasbord of variations in biology that can be exploited to address interdisciplinary questions in fields spanning Development\, Cell Biology\, Ecology and Evolutionary Biology. This seminar series aims to explore variations in biology and bring together audiences across the Biosciences at UM\, to foster interdisciplinary dialogue.

Undue Process: Persecution and Punishment in Autocratic Courts DESCRIPTION:One of the most striking trends of modern authoritarianism is the extent to which power has been consolidated through law. In this seemingly legalistic world order\, courts have unsurprisingly emerged as a prominent forum to adjudicate conflict and contest power. When courts become sites of autocratic contestation\, the proceedings which ensue often bear little resemblance to the conduct of courts in functioning democracies. This is especially true wherever autocrats invoke judicial procedures for repressive ends\, a practice sometimes referred to as \"persecution through prosecution.” Yet\, the judicial dimensions of repression are largely underappreciated despite the far-reaching implications of using law and courts to facilitate oppressive outcomes. In this talk\, Shen-Bayh will address questions focused directly on the role that courts play in strategies of autocratic survival: why do autocrats bother holding a political trial when the outcomes are assumed to be known from the start? What are the goals of going to court and by what mechanisms are these goals achieved? Do autocrats face risks by going to court\, and if so\, how do they ensure that proceedings go as planned? To answer these questions\, she develops a theoretical framework that centers around the disciplinary dimensions of autocracy\, or how the process of punishment can be institutionalized in autocratic courts. She evaluates her theory in the context of postcolonial autocratic regimes across sub Saharan African cases.\n \nFiona Shen-Bayh is an assistant professor of government and data science at the College of William & Mary and an affiliated researcher at the University of Bergen. She earned her PhD and MA in political science from the University of California\, Berkeley and her BA in economics from Vassar College. From 2018-19\, she was a postdoctoral fellow at the Weiser Center for Emerging Democracies at the University of Michigan. Her research focuses on the role that law and courts play in defending and upholding autocratic rule\, and has been supported by the National Science Foundation and the Institute of International Studies at the University of California\, Berkeley and published in *World Politics*. Her current book project examines why autocrats use courts to repress and the ramifications of such strategies on autocratic survival in the Global South. Focusing on sub-Saharan Africa\, her work draws on a mixed-methods approach that combines qualitative and quantitative analyses and leverages a variety of data science tools.\n\nRegistration is required for this Zoom webinar at http://myumi.ch/wloB7.\n\nIf there is anything we can do to make this event accessible to you\, please contact us at weisercenter@umich.edu.

As Muzamil escapes Sakina’s ever-watchful eye\, he encounters friends\, ideas and challenges that make him question his destiny. Sudan’s first Oscar submission\, YOU WILL DIE AT TWENTY is an auspicious debut and a moving meditation on what it means to live in the present.\n\nCo-sponsor: Michigan Theatre UID:82514-21114069@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/82514 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:center for middle eastern and north african studies,Film,Middle East Studies LOCATION:Off Campus Location CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20210217T133137 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20210224T080000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20210224T230000 SUMMARY:Exhibition:For Your Eyes Only DESCRIPTION:Please Note: This exhibition is designed to be viewed through the gallery window on Thayer St.\n\nYasmine Nasser Diaz is the 2021 Efroymson Emerging Artist at the Institute for the Humanities.\n\nFor Your Eyes Only is the latest iteration of multidisciplinary artist Yasmine Nasser Diaz’s bedroom installation. 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.

Flight cancellations and trade restrictions by countries\, as well as closing borders\, have severely constrained access to essential medicines\, including vaccines. Beginning 2020\, the world will experience the largest mass vaccination campaign in its history with forecasted demand of up to 15 billion (at two doses per person) vaccinations by 2023. Delivering multiple new and novel vaccine candidates of varying profiles will further strain limited cold chain capacities in low-income countries. In these settings\, vaccination campaigns will be unlike that of routine childhood or flu vaccinations\; vaccines will have to be secured\, stored and transported to areas where cold chain challenges persist. It is anticipated that cold chain logistics and capacity needs will demand an increase significantly greater than the current level of investment. A global effort to establish and sustain health supply chains to deliver a COVID-19 vaccine\, auxiliary commodities and\, new cold chain equipment when it becomes available\, whilst maintaining program continuity is needed. This urgent requirement will prompt a re-think of how development partners respond to the current cold chain transportation eco-system for the delivery of COVID-19 vaccines. This panel discussion will address plans and programs to build robust in-country logistics / distribution of COVID-19 vaccines. We feature thought leaders from global agencies as well as learn from in-country experts.\n\nPanelists:\n1. Dr. Ahmed Ogwell Ouma\, Deputy Director\, Africa CDC\n2.

Across time and place\, changes in one institution can reverberate through other institutions\, and importantly\, when we attempt to intervene toward equity in one institution\, other institutions can move to restore this toxic equilibrium. Cultural racism\, which encompasses the socially accepted ideologies\, values\, and behavioral norms determined by the dominant power group\, sets this equilibrium. Particularly insidious as it operates on the level of our shared social subconscious\, the processes that comprise cultural racism are invisible to many because they are our “givens”\, our assumptions\, our defaults – but the result shapes our answers to the question: Whose life counts?\n\nFor our 6th annual University of Michigan RacismLab Symposium on the Study of Racism\, we pay tribute to the legacy of Dr. James Jackson\, whose mentorship guided our 1st annual symposium in 2015 and resulted in our guest edited Social Science and Medicine special issue on cultural and structural racism. In the introduction to this special issue\, we called for all scholarship on race and health to be grounded in interdisciplinary frameworks of cultural and structural racism and critical race theory.\n\nOur annual symposium continues to be sponsored by the University of Michigan Survey Research Center at the Institute for Social Research. For our virtual meeting in 2021\, we partner with the Interdisciplinary Association for Population Health Science (IAPHS) to move our discussions to a national stage. As we move to a national\, interdisciplinary discussion\, we are honored that a pioneer in the study of structural racism\, Dr. Eduardo Bonilla Silva will serve as the keynote speaker this year.\n\nPlease register for this event: https://iaphs.org/tools-for-success/online-events/racismlab/racismlab-registration/\n\nEvent link will be provided upon registration.

For example\, in the bosonic sector\, I will explain how the bounds imply restrictions on the size of certain CP-odd operators by associated CP-even couplings. This result can be exploited to reveal a connection between constraints derived at colliders and limits on the neutron electric dipole moment. Further\, I will demonstrate that in the fermionic sector\, IR consistency requires that flavour violating operators are bounded by the flavour conserving variants.

As each person in turn shares a story\, a richer and more complex story emerges. By the end\, people see both real differences and things their stories have in common. Story Circles are often understood as deriving from indigenous traditions. There are many variations (https://usdac.us).\nIn this session participants will be invited to share a story around the theme of Isolation. Staff from the Rackham Resolution Office will serve as facilitators for the process and will end the session by sharing campus resources and information related to the theme.\nThe prompt for this story circle is: Share a story about a time you experienced isolation. How have you understood and reflected on that experience in the COVID-19 pandemic?\nRegistration is required at https://myumi.ch/Xe19N.\nWe want to ensure full and equitable participation in our events.

When societies separate groups of people in the ways that we do in the U.S.\, that separation has not only economic\, political\, and sociological consequences\, it also affects the psychology of the people in those societies due to social cognitive processes. In this talk\, I will share recent findings from my program of research that has been using the United States as a context to examine how patterns of segregation and other forms of social stratification seep into the mind and affect how people perceive and make meaning of the world around them. I will also discuss the consequences of those meaning-making processes for people’s judgments\, motivations\, and decisions\, particularly in the domains of education\, health\, and environmental sustainability. I will conclude with implications of this research for social scientific theories\, and the practical application of those theories.\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:80767-20785457@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/80767 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Economics,seminar LOCATION:Off Campus Location CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20210127T075003 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20210224T140000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20210224T153000 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?

We devise a new theory of wage dynamics that follow a “drunken walk\,” whereby wages adjust minimally to satisfy participation constraints of firm and worker. The theory is amenable to analytical solution for the endogenous wage adjustment bounds\, and is easily embedded into canonical models of aggregate labor market equilibrium\, allowing a study of allocative implications for unemployment dynamics. A variety of extensions to accommodate an inflationary environment\, on-the-job search\, and costly wage cuts further allow an interpretation of recent evidence on nominal wage adjustment\, base vs. non-base pay\, and the possibility of inefficient separations.\n\n* To join the seminar\, please contact at econ.events@umich.edu UID:81197-20872024@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/81197 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Economics,seminar LOCATION:Off Campus Location CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20210215T173559 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20210224T143000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20210224T153000 SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:MUSE 2021 Keynote: Dr. Mika Kennedy DESCRIPTION:Please join us for MUSE 2021's mid-week keynote speaker\, Dr. Mika Kennedy.\n\nMika Kennedy is a Visiting Assistant Professor of English at Kalamazoo College. Her current academic book project examines narratives of Japanese American incarceration\, and the ways these narratives are in conversation with questions about the environment\, the seductions of the “frontier\,” and Native sovereignty. She is also the co-curator of 'Exiled to Motown'\, a grassroots exhibit of Japanese American community in Detroit\, which has an upcoming exhibition at the Detroit Historical Museum in July 2021.\n\nKeynote Presentation Abstract: (Title: Turn to Earth: Looking for a Man Named Komako in Bad Day at Black Rock)\nWe live in a universe of things: How do we continue to find new value in them\, even after they lose their blockbuster luster\, or their original provocations are no longer new? If the act of interpretation is an act of finding use in something\, this talk is about finding re-use by turning to earth--by taking the landscape of a text as vital and actively meaning-making. In its examination of Bad Day at Black Rock\, it asks what a 1955 Hollywood Western actually has to say about the Japanese American body it buried\, sight unseen\; what the black rocks of Black Rock have borne witness to\; and what that it all means for the eco-imperial state.

Stonington spent two years in Thailand studying how families struggle to craft good deaths for their elders in the modern world while honoring their Buddhist traditions.\n\nStonington’s gripping ethnography documents how Thai families attempt to pay back a “debt of life” to their elders through intensive medical care\, followed by a medically assisted rush from the hospital to home to ensure a spiritually advantageous last breath. The result is a powerful exploration of the nature of death and the complexities arising from the globalization of biomedical expertise and ethics around the world. Ray Yung\, M.D.\, Chief of the Geriatrics Center\, will be introducing Dr. Stonington.\n\nScott Stonington is a medical and cultural anthropologist at the University of Michigan and an internal medicine physician. He has a Ph.D in Anthropology from UC Berkeley and UC San Francisco\, and a MD from UC San Francisco. He completed his residency in Internal Medicine at Brigham and Women’s Hospital\, Harvard Medical School.\n\nDr. Stonington is an Assistant Professor\, University of Michigan\, Ann Arbor in the Department of Anthropology as well as the International Institute (Core Faculty for Global Environment and Health)\, a Hospitalist in the Department of Internal Medicine at VA Medical Center and a Primary Care Physician at St. Joseph Mercy Neighborhood Family Health Center in Ypsilanti.\n\nPreregistration is required via the OLLI website or phone.
