For instructions\, please email cmenas@umich.edu with the subject “Request to watch ‘Stray'”\n \nAbout the film:\nThrough the eyes of three stray dogs wandering the streets of Istanbul\, STRAY explores what it means to live as a being without status or security. As they search for food and shelter\, Zeytin\, Nazar and Kartal embark on inconspicuous journeys through Turkish society that allow us an unvarnished portrait of human life — and their own canine culture.\n \nZeytin\, fiercely independent\, embarks on solitary adventures through the city at night\; Nazar\, nurturing and protective\, easily befriends the humans around her\; while Kartal\, a shy puppy living on the outskirts of a construction site\, finds refuge with the security guards who care for her. The disparate lives of Zeytin\, Nazar and Kartal intersect when they each form intimate bonds with a group of young Syrians who share the streets with them.\n \nWhether they lead us into bustling streets or decrepit ruins\, the gaze of these strays act as windows into the overlooked corners of society: women in loveless marriages\, protesters without arms\, refugees without sanctuary. The film is a critical observation of human civilization through the unfamiliar gaze of dogs and a sensory voyage into new ways of seeing.\n\nCo-sponsor: Michigan Theatre UID:82750-21171591@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/82750 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:center for middle eastern and north african studies,cmenas,Film,Middle East Studies,Virtual LOCATION:Off Campus Location CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20210225T101133 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20210314T080000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20210314T200000 SUMMARY:Film Screening:CMENAS Virtual Viewing: You Will Die at Twenty DESCRIPTION:For a limited time\, we are sponsoring free access to this film's virtual viewing. 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:82514-21114087@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:20210314T080000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20210314T230000 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.

The film is a critical observation of human civilization through the unfamiliar gaze of dogs and a sensory voyage into new ways of seeing.\n\nCo-sponsor: Michigan Theatre UID:82750-21171592@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/82750 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:center for middle eastern and north african studies,cmenas,Film,Middle East Studies,Virtual LOCATION:Off Campus Location CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20210225T101133 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20210315T080000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20210315T200000 SUMMARY:Film Screening:CMENAS Virtual Viewing: You Will Die at Twenty DESCRIPTION:For a limited time\, we are sponsoring free access to this film's virtual viewing. 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:82514-21114088@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:20210315T080000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20210315T230000 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.

The YFAS has been quantitatively validated in numerous populations and consistently demonstrates strong psychometric properties including convergent\, discriminant\, and incremental validity across studies. However\, the YFAS has never been examined qualitatively to determine if the scale accurately captures the lived experience of food addiction. The goals of the current study were threefold: 1.) To determine if the subjective understanding of individual items on the YFAS are being interpreted in a manner consistent with the clinical conceptualization of substance use disorder\, 2.) To identify important aspects of the lived experience of food addiction that are NOT being captured by the YFAS\, and 3.) To determine if items on the YFAS do not accurately reflect or are irrelevant to the lived experience of food addiction. Seventeen individuals who self-identified as addicted to food and met criteria for food addiction on the YFAS completed in-depth\, qualitative interviews concerning their lived experience of food addiction as well as their experience completing the YFAS. Thematic analysis was used to identify prominent themes across interviews.\" UID:82846-21201317@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/82846 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:brown bag LOCATION:Off Campus Location CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20210205T001555 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20210315T090000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20210315T103000 SUMMARY:Livestream / Virtual:Dismantling White Supremacy DESCRIPTION:Culture reflects a set of agreed-upon expectations and norms in a social community. Culture includes values\, beliefs\, perceptions\, and behaviors learned from one’s group.

These exposures have wide-ranging effects and are linked to neural\, behavioral\, epigenetic\, physiological\, and mental health effects in trauma-exposed individuals. The timing of trauma exposure is associated with long term risk\, such that childhood trauma has particularly pervasive effects on neurobiology and health outcomes. A growing body of evidence now indicates the importance of caregivers trauma may also have intergenerational effects\, such that parents’ trauma exposure can impact their offspring. Although a substantial body of evidence\nsuggests a link between parental trauma exposure and adverse child outcomes\, the relevant mechanisms of transmission are still unclear. This presentation will describe neurobiological correlates of trauma exposure in children\, focusing on fear circuitry and behavioral and psychophysiological measures of fear inhibition. The talk will include data from children’s direct exposure to violence\, as well as the intergenerational impact of caregiver trauma. Potential buffering effects of caregivers will also be discussed.

These projects employed a quality improvement approach whereby health workers and staff at the local level formed quality improvement teams. Using quality improvement methods\, these teams first identified barriers to providing high quality maternal and newborn care and then proposed simple\, low-cost solutions to address these barriers. Dr. Singh’s external evaluation team employed a mixed methods approach to understand whether and how this intervention improved maternal and child health outcomes. The evaluation methods included quantitative impact analyses\, team assessments\, quality assessments and cost-effectiveness analyses. \n\n\nBIO: \nKavita Singh (Ongechi)\, PhD\, MPH\, is an Associate Professor in the Department of Maternal and Child Health at UNC and also a Faculty Fellow at the Carolina Population Center. She served as the Senior Technical Advisor for Maternal and Child Health for the MEASURE Evaluation project\, and now serves in that role for the Data for Impact Project (D4I). Dr. Singh has been the lead PI for the evaluation of several quality improvement projects focused on maternal and child health in Ghana and Ethiopia. She was also an evaluator for the Safe Motherhood Initiative in Malawi and has been researching the effect of postnatal care and essential newborn care on neonatal survival. Much of Dr. Singh’s current work is focused on methodologies to obtain data on hard to measure outcomes such as maternal mortality and techniques to improve the quality and use of health facility data. She used indirect estimation techniques to understand the effect of forced migration on refugee and host populations in Northern Uganda and South Sudan. She has also used venue-based methodologies to understand localities most in need of HIV prevention messages and services. Dr. Singh is keenly interested in translating pilot phase evaluation findings to inform the implementation of scale-up phases and adapting methodologies to get better data on maternal\, child and newborn health outcomes. \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\n\nNOTE: The last 15 minutes of this session are reserved for a professional development conversation between the presenter and PSC trainees.\n\n\nContact PSC Office for Zoom details.

To do this\, we investigate what general decision strategies in moral decisions are\, and ask whether they are adapted to the environment in the same way that non-moral decisions are. In this talk\, I will first introduce a process-tracing method — the MouseLab paradigm (E. Johnson et al.\, 1989) — that helps identify strategies in decision making. Then\, I will propose a series of studies investigating strategies in moral decisions in a given bounded environment. The environmental bounds that we explore are time constraints\, numbers of choice alternatives\, and numbers of attributes. We will then compare the strategies used in our moral decision tasks with those identified in non-moral decisions in the literature\, as well as those identified in our non-moral decision tasks.

While these problems are important for practicing mathematical problem-solving\, they lack the complexity of ill-defined\, sociotechnical engineering projects in the real world. In my current research I seek to bridge this gap between the engineering classroom and workplace by understanding how students engage in the productive beginnings of professional practices and how instructors can support these productive beginnings.\n \nThis seminar will focus on my research in one particular practice\, engineering judgment\, which is the use of mathematical models in design and analysis. I will discuss my development of a new innovative type of assignment in which students model a real-world system by making and justifying their own assumptions. The quantitative and qualitative results showcase students’ affective response to the problems\, the ways in which students exhibit the productive beginnings of engineering judgment\, and the influence of the assignment scaffolding on students’ work. I will conclude by outlining my future work on professional practices\, including students’ development of macroethical reasoning\, and formative assessment strategies instructors can use to engage students in the productive beginnings of professional practices.\n \nAbout the speaker...\n\nAaron W. Johnson is an Instructor in Smead Aerospace Engineering Sciences at the University of Colorado Boulder. He believes in a strong connection between engineering education research and practice\, and his research leverages his experience teaching engineering science courses to bridge the gap between theoretical\, well-defined coursework and ill-defined\, sociotechnical engineering practice. His current work seeks to develop an understanding of how students engage in the productive beginnings of professional practices and how instructors’ pedagogy and assignments can support these productive beginnings. Aaron holds a B.S. in Aerospace Engineering from the University of Michigan\, and a Ph.D. in Aeronautics and Astronautics from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. Prior to CU Boulder\, he was a postdoctoral research fellow at the Tufts University Center for Engineering Education and Outreach and the University of Michigan Engineering Education Research Program. Aaron is a two-time recipient of the U-M Aerospace Department Silver Shaft Award for Undergraduate Teaching and was recently awarded the 2020 American Society for Engineering Education Apprentice Faculty Grant for promising engineering education scholars.

However\, due to their very small energy depositions\, general purpose detectors are blind to such particles. In order to provide sensitivity\, the milliQan experiment consists of several layers of long scintillator bars pointing towards the CMS interaction point\, paired with high-gain\, low-noise photomultiplier tubes capable of measuring a single scintillation photon. In 2017\, a 1% scale \"demonstrator\" was installed at the planned site in order to study the feasibility and develop understanding of the experiment. The demonstrator ran very successfully\, allowing a search to be undertaken that set competitive constraints and providing critical insights for future detectors. In this talk I will discuss the general concept of the experiment\, the results from the demonstrator\, and the plan for future detectors at the LHC and beyond.\n UID:82793-21179561@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/82793 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Physics,Science LOCATION:Off Campus Location CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20210301T131907 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20210315T160000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20210315T170000 SUMMARY:Presentation:MIDAS Seminar Series Presents: Patricia Murrieta-Flores\, Lancaster University DESCRIPTION:The field of Digital Humanities\, and particularly the increasing accessibility of digital resources\, has opened a significant number of opportunities for the study of sources that can be highly relevant to history and archaeology. These opportunities include the use of methodologies from the fields of Artificial Intelligence and Computational Linguistics and the application of a diversity of techniques and methods for the large-scale analysis and exploration of collections of historical documents.\n\nIn the case of the early colonial history of Mexico\, there is an enormous variety of historical documents related to the economic\, social and political life at that time. An example of this is the sixteenth-century Relaciones Geográficas de Nueva España (the Geographic Reports of New Spain). Created from the responses to a questionnaire ordered by Philip II’s and obtained between 1577 and 1585\, the Geographic Reports sought to compile all the information available on the American territories under Spanish rule. Due to its essential content\, these reports have been the object of study by a large number of researchers\, and are frequently used in the analysis of the political\, social\, territorial and economic situation at the time. Although numerous studies seek to understand the shifting territorial situation in New Spain\, two enormous challenges have remained. The first one is the considerable size or volume of information to be analysed and compared. The second has been the precise identification of the places mentioned in these reports\, especially on a large scale.\n\nIn this presentation\, I will introduce the project sponsored by the Transatlantic Platform for the Humanities and Social Sciences (T-AP) called “Digging into Early Colonial Mexico: a large-scale computational analysis of historical documents”\, and some of its results. Taking as a basis the historical corpus of the Geographic Reports of New Spain\, the project main objectives have been: 1) to adapt and develop techniques from Artificial Intelligence\, including aspects of Natural Language Processing\, Text Mining and Geographic Information Systems for the extraction and analysis of historical information from this source\, and 2) to design computational methodologies for the identification of possible large-scale historical patterns. This research is allowing us to clarify some of the essential geographic questions related to the period and the colonial situation in this territory. I will also present a methodology termed Geographical Text Analysis and some of the most critical outputs from this project. These include software developed to carry out this type of analysis\, the first sixteenth-century digital gazetteer of Mexico and Guatemala\, and the first experiments using Natural Language Processing to automatically annotate the Relaciones corpus.

I will present CRISPRoff— a programmable epigenetic memory writer consisting of a single dead Cas9 fusion protein that establishes DNA methylation and repressive histone modifications to turn off transcription. Transient CRISPRoff expression initiates highly specific DNA methylation and gene repression that is maintained through cell division and differentiation of stem cells to neurons. Pairing CRISPRoff with genome-wide screens and analysis of chromatin marks enabled us to explore the rules for heritable silencing. We identify sgRNAs capable of silencing the large majority of genes including those lacking canonical CpG islands (CGIs) and reveal a wide targeting window extending beyond annotated CGIs. Our finding that targeted DNA methylation outside of CGIs leads to memorized gene silencing expands the canonical model of methylation-based silencing and broadly enables diverse applications including genome-wide screens\, multiplexed cell engineering\, enhancer silencing\, and mechanistic exploration of epigenetic inheritance.\n\nKEYWORDS: CRISPR\, transcription\, epigenetics\nFlyer in PDF: https://rna.umich.edu/wp-content/uploads/2021/02/Seminar-Flyer-03152021-Nunez.pdf UID:81286-20881887@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/81286 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Basic Science,Biointerfaces,Biology,Biomedical Engineering,Biosciences,Chemistry,Drug Discovery,Graduate,Graduate School,Lecture,Life Science,Materials Science,Medicine,Natural Sciences,Pharmacy,Postdoctoral Research Fellows,Public Health,Public Policy,Rackham,Research,Science,Structural Biology LOCATION:Off Campus Location CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20210118T163944 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20210315T160000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20210315T171500 SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:STS Speaker. The Specter of Irreversible Change DESCRIPTION:In 1950\, the United States had 299 nuclear weapons in its stockpile. By 1960\, it had 18\,638. And by 1965\, it had 31\,139. As the United States and Russia massively increased both the power and the range of their nuclear weaponry\, it became possible to conceive of a catastrophic\, global-scale war\, and the Atomic Energy Commission funded studies to investigate the economic and environmental consequences of such a war. Along with military planners\, sociologists\, and even science fiction writers\, ecologists were tasked by the U.S. government with envisioning the immense destructive potential of nuclear weaponry. In so doing\, ecologists did not picture the outcome of World War III as the total annihilation of life on earth\; there would have been no point to such an exercise. Instead\, ecologists anticipated a period of environmental and economic recovery after World War III and considered how the government could hasten that recovery – how they could pursue ecological restoration. Ecologists and military strategists revisited studies of past ecological disasters\, including the American Dust Bowl\, in their attempt to plan for apocalypse. Their Doomsday imaginings drew on ecological succession theory\, expanding the category of “environmental disturbance” beyond windstorms\, fires\, and floods to include nuclear bombs – and\, ultimately\, any human action. Meanwhile\, in order to simulate the effects of nuclear war\, ecologists began to destroy ecological communities intentionally. They irradiated forests and fumigated islands\, trying to measure how intentionally stressed communities responded. These ecosystem destruction studies reveal the key contributions that the Cold War arms race made to the theory and practice of ecological restoration. \n\nLaura J. Martin is an assistant professor of environmental studies at Williams College. Her research and teaching lie at the intersection of environmental history\, history of biology\, and conservation biology. She is currently finishing a book on the history of ecological restoration as an idea\, a practice\, and a scientific discipline.

As they search for food and shelter\, Zeytin\, Nazar and Kartal embark on inconspicuous journeys through Turkish society that allow us an unvarnished portrait of human life — and their own canine culture.\n \nZeytin\, fiercely independent\, embarks on solitary adventures through the city at night\; Nazar\, nurturing and protective\, easily befriends the humans around her\; while Kartal\, a shy puppy living on the outskirts of a construction site\, finds refuge with the security guards who care for her. The disparate lives of Zeytin\, Nazar and Kartal intersect when they each form intimate bonds with a group of young Syrians who share the streets with them.\n \nWhether they lead us into bustling streets or decrepit ruins\, the gaze of these strays act as windows into the overlooked corners of society: women in loveless marriages\, protesters without arms\, refugees without sanctuary. The film is a critical observation of human civilization through the unfamiliar gaze of dogs and a sensory voyage into new ways of seeing.\n\nCo-sponsor: Michigan Theatre UID:82750-21171593@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/82750 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:center for middle eastern and north african studies,cmenas,Film,Middle East Studies,Virtual LOCATION:Off Campus Location CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20210225T101133 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20210316T080000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20210316T200000 SUMMARY:Film Screening:CMENAS Virtual Viewing: You Will Die at Twenty DESCRIPTION:For a limited time\, we are sponsoring free access to this film's virtual viewing.

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.

NAc may have two modes for motivation\, as inhibition and excitation of NAc can both produce motivated behaviors. For example\, NAc medial shell inhibition through AMPA receptor antagonist (DNQX) microinjections can produce both intense eating and defensive behaviors (Baumgartner et al.\, 2020). Chapter 2 of this dissertation investigates the inhibition hypothesis of accumbens motivation generation by testing whether local pairing of optogenetic excitation can disrupt ‘desire’ and ‘dread’ behaviors generated by DNQX microinjections.\n\nIncentive and aversive motivation generated by NAc and other limbic structures are flexible and able to respond to external stressors. Chapter 3 therefore investigates a previously untested neuronal population in NAc that expresses corticotropin-releasing factor (CRF)\, a stress-related peptide heavily implicated in aversive motivation and distressing drug-withdrawal states in CeA and bed nucleus of stria terminalis (BNST). Like NAc\, the CeA is also capable of producing intense positive and negative motivated behaviors and we investigate the flexibility of incentive or aversive motivation in CRF neurons using new Crh-Cre+ rats to optogenetically stimulate NAc\, CeA\, or BNST CRF-containing neurons. This work finds that excitation of CRF-expressing neurons is capable of biasing and amplifying motivation for sucrose rewards in both NAc shell and lateral CeA (Baumgartner et al. 2021). Conversely\, it also demonstrates that optogenetic excitation of pallidal-like bed nucleus of stria terminalis (BNST) CRF-containing neurons produces only negative affect and aversive motivation\, filling the traditional role that CRF has been hypothesized to play in aversive withdrawal and affect (Koob 2013).\n\nFollowing the demonstrated positive role of NAc and CeA CRF-containing neurons for sucrose rewards\, Chapter 4 of this dissertation examines whether this influence on incentive motivation also applies to drug rewards. CRF in CeA and BNST is posited to underlie aversive withdrawal states\, causing negative distress that leads to addictive relapse through attempts at hedonic self-medication to relieve this state (Koob 2013). Chapter 4 therefore tests whether optogenetic excitation of CRF neurons in NAc\, CeA\, and BNST are capable of biasing and amplifying motivation for self-administered intravenous cocaine infusions. Understanding whether CRF-mediated incentive motivation also can drive drug motivation is therefore integral. We find that NAc and CeA CRF-expressing neurons are indeed capable of biasing motivation for cocaine infusions\, while rats given the option between BNST CRF-containing neuron-paired cocaine and cocaine alone show no drug escalation or preferences between cocaine options.\n\nAltogether this dissertation demonstrates the limbic generation of intense motivation in structures such as NAc and CeA\, and how both incentive and aversive motivation can be modulated by stress and brain CRF systems. The neural mechanisms underlying these different motivational valences provide important insight into cases where motivation can become pathological\, such as in addiction\, schizophrenia\, and other psychological disorders.

First\, the presentation examines how Chinese American women medical personnel came to establish the first Chinese blood bank in New York and Kunming\, China. Second\, this talk reveals how Singapore-born and Edinburgh-educated Dr. Robert Lim successfully relocated the National Defense Medical Center from China to Taiwan in 1948 despite the longstanding challenges posed by the Chinese Civil War. This presentation highlights the essential intersections of scientific expertise\, political freedoms\, and diasporic power in shaping global medicine in China and Taiwan through a critical examination of these two medical encounters between the diaspora and the local Chinese and Taiwanese.\n \n Wayne Soon (PhD Princeton) is an Assistant Professor of History at Vassar College. His book\, \"Global Medicine in China: A Diasporic History\" (Stanford University Press\, 2020)\, tells the global medical histories of Chinese East Asia through the lens of diasporic Chinese medical personnel\, who were central in introducing new practices of military medicine\, blood banking\, mobile medicine\, and mass medical training to China and Taiwan. Universal care\, practical medical education\, and mobile medicine are all lasting legacies of this effort on both sides of the Taiwan Straits. Dr. Soon’s published and forthcoming articles can be found in \"Twentieth Century China\,\" \"Bulletin of the History of Medicine\,\" \"American Journal of Chinese Studies\,\" and \"East Asian Science\, Technology and Society: An International Journal.\"\n \nIf there is anything we can do to make this event accessible to you\, please contact us.

The “Talisman of the World”: Mawlāna Jalāl al-Dīn Rūmī and the Mongols in 13th-Century Seljuk Anatolia DESCRIPTION:Free and open to the public\; please register at https://myumi.ch/K4nNo\n\nMawlānā Jalāl al-Dīn Rūmī (d. 1274)\, the Sufi shaykh and poet celebrated for his mystical Mathnawi\, rose to prominence during a particularly turbulent period as Mongol rule was imposed upon Seljuk Anatolia. While partisan arguments abound in modern Turkish historiography whether he was a collaborator with the Mongol invaders or not\, Mawlana’s social and political role in Mongol-dominated Seljuk Konya remains obscure. By drawing on a variety of thirteenth and fourteenth century sources of a hagiographical\, religious and historical nature\, Mawlānā’s historical role and socio-political context are reevaluated: How did Mawlānā view the Mongol regime? What was his relationship with the Seljuk political elite and\, in particular\, with the Parwāna\, the Seljuk official and Mongol collaborator who usurped the Seljuk sultan’s power? Finally\, how are we to understand Mawlānā’s moral-religious charisma and spiritual capital as the protector of Konya and Rūm from the Mongols-- the great talisman of the world\, as his hagiographer Aflākī portrays him?

Within this workshop\, she will encourage attendees to first connect with their own artistic selves\, considering the ways that the arts are woven within their own life’s story. Following a journey to reconsider their positionality with regard to the arts\, attendees will examine the ways that human beings use the arts to address injustice\, particularly at moments of crisis such as those we are experiencing today. Equity in arts education will be examined from this broader perspective\, with each participant reflecting on their own journey within educational spaces as it relates to identity and marginalization.\n\nAn integral part of the Inspire initiative is pairing advocacy\, social change\, and activism with skills that enhance a sense of wellbeing and focus. A short guided Mindfulness Meditation practice will be incorporated into the program.\n\nKate Fitzpatrick-Harnish\, PhD is Associate Professor of Music Education for the School of Music\, Theatre and Dance at the University of Michigan.

New York Times columnist Charles M. Blow examines the corrosive effect of Donald Trump’s arrogance on our democracy. Artist Ruth Nicole Brown describes lessons learned from her aunt about living a life of “you before me\,” and how this informed her work celebrating Black girls. Journalist Lynette Clemetson lays out the conflicts for journalists trained to recede into the background but now urged to be social media presences. And scholars Aric Rindfleisch and Nadia Danienta describe why maker cultures are as good at celebrating failure as they are at championing success. Having witnessed the personal and civic costs of narcissism and arrogance\, these and other writers consider humility as a valuable process—a state of being—with the power to impact institutions\, systems\, families\, and individuals\, and give voice to the ways in which humility is practiced in many ordinary but extraordinary actions.\n\nThis virtual book event\, hosted by Literati\, features four speakers on their essays from the book:\n\nRuth Nicole Brown is an artist-scholar whose life work is dedicated to the celebration of Black girlhood. The Inaugural Chairperson of African American and African Studies at Michigan State University\, her study of Black girlhood emerges from over a decade of practice- face to face conversations\, rituals of dance and movement\, and active relationship building with Black girls and women in Saving Our Lives Hear Our Truths which is lovingly referred to by the acronym SOLHOT.  Author of Black Girlhood Celebration: Toward A Hip-Hop Feminist Pedagogy and Hear Our Truths: The Creative Potential of Black Girlhood\, Ruth Nicole was awarded the Whiting Public Engagement Fellowship for SOLHOT’s premier project\, Black Girl Genius Week.\n\nLynette Clemetson is a longtime journalist who loves helping reporters do their best work. She’s worked in print in digital\, in magazines\, newspapers and radio\, in the field and as a manager. As director of the Knight-Wallace Fellowships for Journalists and the Livingston Awards at the University of Michigan\, she works to develop the careers of accomplished journalists from around the world who work in every medium on every platform. A former reporter for Newsweek and The New York Times and a former manager at NPR\, she is a fierce defender of press freedom. She believes there is an incredible amount of important\, impactful\, innovative reporting being done now… if only people (herself included) could stop scrolling long enough to absorb more of it.\n\nMickey Duzyj is an artist & director known for his innovative use of animation in documentary film. He was chosen by Variety Magazine as one of 2019’s “Top 10 Documentary Filmmakers to Watch” and is the creator/director of the critically-acclaimed Netflix documentary series LOSERS (2019). He lives in upstate New York with his wife and 2 boys.\n\nRebekah Modrak is a writer and artist whose interventionist artworks resist consumer culture. Re Made Co. (remadeco.org) poses as an online “company” promoting $350 artisanal toilet plungers to parody actual company Best Made Co.\, seller of $350 luxury hand-painted axes. RETHINK SHINOLA (rethinkshinola.com) guides viewers through the Shinola company’s past and present of marketing White supremacy. You can read her thoughts about culture jamming and reclaiming meaning from brand rhetoric in such publications as The Routledge Companion to Criticality in Art\, Architecture and Design\, Afterimage\, Consumption Markets & Culture\, Ms. Magazine\, and The Conversation.\n\nJamie Vander Broek is an art librarian at the University of Michigan. She buys all kinds of art and design and artists’ books for her library and runs a book arts studio where you can learn to print with metal type and make books by hand.

She lives in a constantly under-construction house with her husband\, daughter\, and two out-of-control Miniature Australian Shepherds.\n\nJennifer Cole Wright is Professor of Psychology at the College of Charleston\, USA. Her area of research is moral development and moral psychology more generally. She is interested in how moral values and norms develop over time and influence people’s reactions to divergent beliefs and practices in pluralistic societies—and\, in particular\, the influence of individual and social “liberal vs. conservative” mindsets on those reactions. She is also interested in why we care about being “good people” and how we become them. In particular\, she studies humility and the development of virtue\, as well as young children’s early moral development. She has published papers on these and other topics in journals like Cognition\, Mind & Language\, Journal of British Developmental Psychology\, Journal of Experimental Social Psychology\, Philosophical Psychology\, Journal of Cognition and Culture\, and Personality and Individual Differences.

Lautenberg Chemical Safety for the 21st Century Act. This reform law was designed to modernize U.S. industrial chemical policy to promote health\, but has it lived up to its promise?\n\nPublic understanding is limited regarding how exposures to toxic chemicals affect health and how they might be regulated. Unlike pharmaceuticals\, industrial and commercial chemicals are rarely tested for safety before they reach the U.S. market. The 1976 TSCA has been widely acknowledged to be a weak and ineffective law\, and widespread exposures and harms continue. In the U.S.\, everyone is exposed to industrial and toxic chemicals\, dozens and probably hundreds – well before birth. The amount of chemicals manufactured and imported continues to grow – it is trillions of pounds – and these chemicals remain largely unregulated. At the same time\, we have seen an increase in chronic diseases\, such as diabetes\, autism\, and infertility. Not everyone is equally at risk\, and a higher burden of disease falls on low wealth communities and communities of color. These health disparities in exposures and health effects are illustrated and exacerbated by COVID.\n\nThe amended TSCA gave the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency new requirements and authorities. The public health impact points to the need for the U.S. EPA to fully use its new powers to evaluate all risks from hazardous chemicals and set policies which protect health and are accountable to high-risk communities. Preventive actions are urgently needed.\n\nWatch “THE FOREVER CHEMICALS” documentary (2019\, 26 min) at Great Lakes Now then join the March 16 forum. https://www.greatlakesnow.org/fc\n“The Forever Chemicals” is an Emmy-winning examination of the impact of PFAS contamination in west Michigan\ncommunities. \n\nLEARN MORE AT OUR LIVE VIRTUAL PANEL DISCUSSION (registration required) on March 16 with Sandra Svoboda\, “The Forever Chemicals” co-producer and Great Lakes Now Program Director\; Tracey Woodruff\, PhD\, MPH\, Professor\, Ob/Gyn\, Reproductive Sciences\, University of CA-San Francisco\; and Justin Onwenu\, Environmental Justice Organizer\, Sierra Club.

Now internationally honored for his work as a Swedish businessman-turned-Holocaust rescuer\, Wallenberg actually traveled to Hungary to carry out “a humanitarian mission in [sic] behalf of the War Refugee Board\,” a newly-established United States government agency tasked with trying to save the surviving Jews of Europe. This lecture explores Wallenberg’s work as revealed in United States government records: the context of his selection\; the schemes proposed by the War Refugee Board staff\; and the constant communication problems that ultimately kept Washington in the dark about much of his work\, and Wallenberg unaware of their requests of him. As the situation in Hungary worsened\, Wallenberg felt empowered to move from the vague initial plans of relief to embarking upon dangerous rescue work. Unfortunately\, although his colleagues at the Swedish legation in Budapest did not know of his American ties\, it is almost certain that the Soviet Union\, his eventual captor and likely executioner\, did.\n\nPhoto Credit: HS 59\, U-M A.

For instructions\, please email cmenas@umich.edu with the subject “Request to watch ‘Stray'”\n \nAbout the film:\nThrough the eyes of three stray dogs wandering the streets of Istanbul\, STRAY explores what it means to live as a being without status or security. As they search for food and shelter\, Zeytin\, Nazar and Kartal embark on inconspicuous journeys through Turkish society that allow us an unvarnished portrait of human life — and their own canine culture.\n \nZeytin\, fiercely independent\, embarks on solitary adventures through the city at night\; Nazar\, nurturing and protective\, easily befriends the humans around her\; while Kartal\, a shy puppy living on the outskirts of a construction site\, finds refuge with the security guards who care for her. The disparate lives of Zeytin\, Nazar and Kartal intersect when they each form intimate bonds with a group of young Syrians who share the streets with them.\n \nWhether they lead us into bustling streets or decrepit ruins\, the gaze of these strays act as windows into the overlooked corners of society: women in loveless marriages\, protesters without arms\, refugees without sanctuary. The film is a critical observation of human civilization through the unfamiliar gaze of dogs and a sensory voyage into new ways of seeing.\n\nCo-sponsor: Michigan Theatre UID:82750-21171594@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/82750 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:center for middle eastern and north african studies,cmenas,Film,Middle East Studies,Virtual LOCATION:Off Campus Location CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20210225T101133 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20210317T080000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20210317T200000 SUMMARY:Film Screening:CMENAS Virtual Viewing: You Will Die at Twenty DESCRIPTION:For a limited time\, we are sponsoring free access to this film's virtual viewing.

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:82514-21114090@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:20210316T090733 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20210317T080000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20210317T220000 SUMMARY:Meeting:East Quad Multicultural Council Presents: Women's History Month Scavenger Hunt DESCRIPTION:Come celebrate Women's History Month with the Residential College RAs and Abeng Multicultural Council!

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.

In the human oral microbiome alone\, you can find over 700 different microbial species at a given time. These microbial species can shape the microenvironment throughout the human body\, by their microbial interactions mediated by secretion of chemical mediators (i.e. secondary metabolites). These interactions are paramount to maintaining oral health and systematic health. Several epidemiological studies have linked dysbiosis of oral microbes with cardiovascular disease\, poor glycemic control in diabetics\, low b rheumatoid arthritis and a number of other conditions. Through recent advances in technology\, including next-generation sequencing (NGS) and bioinformatic tools\, have helped to unravel the complexities of the oral microbiome. It is still not understood how microbial interactions are mediated within the oral cavity and how they affect oral and systemic health. Using a prospective\, split mouth\, experimental gingivitis model on 20 healthy non-smoking participants\, we were able to observe metabolite profile changes in oral cavity during gingivitis progression and identify several small molecules that have regulatory properties in pathogenic oral microbial growth. With this research\, we may be able to develop novel enhancers and pharmaceuticals for oral health and characterize molecules that can serve as biomarkers for oral and systemic diseases.\n\nHosts: Matthew Ostrowski\, Thomas Schmidt UID:82901-21211384@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/82901 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Biology,Biosciences,Drug Discovery,Life Science,Pre Med,Science LOCATION:Off Campus Location CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20210127T092026 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20210317T100000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20210317T110000 SUMMARY:Reception / Open House:Free Coffee and Donuts on North Campus!

The non-linear temporality of the mourning produced by the child mourner from Tel Aviv’s Yemenite Quarter is juxtaposed with national representations of Yemeni Jews\, constructed as an origin of Jewish homogeneity rooted in the past. Re’ee focuses on ʿOzeri’s cinematic performance against the background of south Tel Aviv\, revealing a twofold memory of loss\, both Mizrahi and Palestinian. ʿOzeri emerges as a singer who drew on multiple resources of mourning positioned across putative national and regional borders of urban and global Southern geographies. ʿOzeri is narrated not only as a child mourner but also as the last mourner\, in the face of progressive national time. Re’ee concludes by asking what is lost with the last mourner’s departure from the world\, when one loses the ability to recognize one’s own loss through its reflection in the other’s ruins. Re’ee will be joined by respondent Tamar Sella.\n\nRe’ee Hagay is a cultural theorist and ethnographer of Mizrahi aesthetics and a PhD student in Near Eastern Studies at Cornell University. His work focuses on time\, mourning\, and globalization in Mizrahi popular culture. Work in progress includes “From Silence to Silence: (In)Audible Limits of a Transnational Dialogue” about the relationship between Edward Said\, Daniel Barenboim\, and Richard Wagner\; and\, with Jonathan Boyarin\, a bibliographical essay on the Jewish diaspora.\n\nTamar Sella received her PhD in Ethnomusicology in May 2020 from Harvard University\, where she is also currently a Visiting Fellow in Music. Her work cuts across sound and performance studies\, feminist and queer theory\, and Jewish history. Her dissertation\, “Resonant Ancestors: Arab Jewish Memory on the Israeli Stage\,” which she is currently revising into a book for publication\, explores the negotiations of ancestral memories in contemporary performance by Mizrahi Jews in Israel/Palestine toward reimagining decolonial and diasporic futures. Tamar’s own ancestors are Jews from Poland\, Ukraine\, and Yemen\, and she grew up moving between Israel and the U.S. As an organizer\, writer\, and sometimes performer\, Tamar also has a secondary area in American music\, where she examines aesthetics in jazz and improvised music in relation to gender and race formations.\n\nAdvance Registration Required: https://umich.zoom.us/meeting/register/tJUpcO-tpzgsH9EX2CisvejcAVFF9breWDVr UID:82313-21066622@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/82313 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Jewish Studies LOCATION:Off Campus Location CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20240116T141648 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20210317T120000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20210317T123000 SUMMARY:Well-being:North Campus Mindfulness Meditation Drop-In (Online) DESCRIPTION:Take a moment to create some space to breathe and invite a sense of calm into your day.

Prior work on stress in couples has primarily focused on understanding situations in which one partner is experiencing stress and the other partner is acting as the support provider\, such as when one partner is taking a big exam\, experiencing a chronic illness\, or undergoing a stressor in the lab. In real life\, however\, couples are likely to also experience stress simultaneously\, such as when two working parents have to juggle work\, kids\, and household duties. This concurrent stress creates potentially difficult situations in which both partners need to receive and provide support. In this talk\, I present data on the role of concurrent stress in romantic relationships both before and during the pandemic. I also present a novel lab paradigm designed to help us understand how couples actually navigate these potential pain points in relationships.

First\, we estimate the elasticity of consumption with respect to income using an instrument based on firm-wide changes in monthly pay. While much of the consumption-smoothing literature uses variation in unusual windfall income\, this instrument captures the temporary income variation that households typically experience. In addition\, because it can be constructed for every worker in every month\, it allows for more\nprecision than most previous estimates. We implement this approach in administrative bank account data and find an average elasticity of 0.23\, with a standard error of 0.01. This increased precision also allows us\nto address an open question about the extent of heterogeneity by wealth in the elasticity. We find a much lower consumption response for high-liquidity households\, which may help discipline structural consumption\nmodels.\nSecond\, we use this instrument to study how wealth shapes racial inequality. An extensive body of work documents a substantial racial and ethnic wealth gap. However\, less is known about how this gap translates\ninto differences in welfare on a month-to-month basis. We combine our instrument for typical income volatility with a new dataset linking bank account data with race and Hispanicity. We find that black (Hispanic) households cut their consumption 50 (20) percent more than white households when faced with a similarly-sized income shock. Nearly all of this differential pass-through of income to consumption is explained in a statistical sense by differences in liquid wealth. Combining our empirical estimates with a model\, we show that temporary income volatility has a substantial welfare cost for all groups. Because of racial disparities in consumption smoothing\, the cost is at least 50 percent higher for black households and 20 percent higher for Hispanic households than it is for white households.\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:82207-21052542@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/82207 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Economics,seminar LOCATION:Off Campus Location CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20201212T141630 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20210317T140000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20210317T153000 SUMMARY:Class / Instruction:Building the Border: The United States\, the British Empire\, and Native Nations of the Great Lakes\, 1796-1812 DESCRIPTION:Study group leader Jonathan Quint\, University of Michigan Department of History PhD candidate and Clements Library Intern\, will discuss his research on how the ordinary people of the Detroit River region experienced the imposition of the U.S.- Canadian border in 1796 and his work with the Clements and UM faculty to create instructional activities that connect students with the archives.\nThis study group will meet Wednesday March 17.

Yet the current drug-discovery approach is unable to screen the astronomical number of possible combinations in different cell types and does not account for the complex environment inside the body. We have developed AI tools - INDIGO and MAGENTA - that predict the efficacy of drug combinations based on the properties of the drugs\, the pathogen\, and the infection environment. We are also using modeling to identify drugs that work in synergy with the host immune system. Using INDIGO and MAGENTA\, we have identified highly synergistic combinations of repurposed drugs to treat drug resistant infections including Tuberculosis\, the deadliest bacterial infection. INDIGO also accurately predicts the outcome of past clinical trials of drug combinations. Our ultimate goal is to create a personalized approach to treat infections using AI.\n* * *\nBiography: Chandrasekaran received his bachelor’s degree in Biotechnology from Anna University in 2008\, and a PhD in Biophysics from the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign in 2013. He worked at Harvard University and MIT as a Harvard Junior Fellow between 2013 and 2016 and became an Assistant Professor at UM in 2017. His lab develops systems biology algorithms for drug discovery. Computer models from his lab like INDIGO and MAGENTA are being used to design effective therapies against drug resistant pathogens. His lab also develops systems biology algorithms to understand metabolic regulation. The approaches that they have created (PROM\, ASTRIX\, DFA\, EGEM and GEMINI) perform complementary functions in modeling of metabolic and regulatory networks. Chandrasekaran’s research has been published in Cell\, Genome Biology\, mBio\, and PNAS. For his work\, Chandrasekaran previously received the 2013 Harvard Junior Fellowship\, the 2011 Howard Hughes Medical Institute (HHMI) International Predoctoral Fellowship\, the 2014 William Milton Fund award\, 2018 UM Precision Health Investigator Award\, and the 2018 Distinguished Young Investigator Award from the AICHE COBRA society.\n\n\nhttps://umich-health.zoom.us/j/93929606089?pwd=SHh6R1FOQm8xMThRemdxTEFMWWpVdz09 UID:82825-21179592@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/82825 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Basic Science,Biology,Biomedical Engineering,Biosciences,Cardiovascular,Chemistry,Discussion,Electrical Engineering and Computer Science,Engineering,Environment,Free,Human Genetics,Information and Technology,Learning Health Systems,Lecture,Life Science,Mathematics,Medicine,Pediatrics,Physics,Public Health,Research,Science,seminar,Structural Biology,Talk LOCATION:Off Campus Location - https://umich-health.zoom.us/j/93929606089?pwd=SHh6R1FOQm8xMThRemdxTEFMWWpVdz09 CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20210401T123038 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20210317T160000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20210317T170000 SUMMARY:Careers / Jobs:Day in the Life\, Entry Level DESCRIPTION:In this session\, you will hear first hand what it is like to work in our entry level positions in both the Clinical Development Division and the Laboratories Division at PPD.

New laboratory experiments are being commissioned to probe dark matter lighter than the proton mass\, but the signatures in these detectors rely crucially on the condensed matter properties of the detector material. I will survey the progress made in understanding existing detectors and designing future ones which operate in this unusual low-energy regime\, driven by an incredibly fruitful and rich collaboration between condensed matter physicists and particle physicists\, both theorists and experimentalists. I will describe a new approach which helps to identify novel condensed matter systems with optimal material properties for dark matter detection\, bridging high- and low-energy physics and ensuring that no stone is left unturned in the hunt for dark matter in the laboratory.\n UID:82569-21124010@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/82569 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Physics,Science LOCATION:Off Campus Location CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20210301T170513 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20210317T160000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20210317T170000 SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Dr. Tressie McMillan Cottom on modern discourse DESCRIPTION:Join us for a conversation on modern discourse with Dr. Tressie McMillan Cottom\, moderated by Dr. Celeste Watkins-Hayes\, as they discuss the topics in her new book\, Thick\, including race\, gender\, inequality\, higher education access\, technology\, culture\, and more.\n\nRegister: https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSfyzakYT0aibwapQqK74sXtj2xVh7ZkqxS7zj82vEmk2SDcBA/viewform\n\nFrom the speaker's bio:\n\nDr. Tressie McMillan Cottom is an award-winning author\, researcher\, educator\, and cultural critic whose work has been recognized nationally and internationally for the urgency and depth of her incisive critical analysis of technology\, higher education\, class\, race\, and gender.\n\nThe foundation for Tressie’s first book\, Lower Ed: The Troubling Rise of For-Profit Colleges in the New Economy\, was formed by dissertation research for her doctorate from Emory University’s Laney Graduate School. In Lower Ed\, Tressie questions the fundamental narrative of American education policy. In 2019\, Tressie released Thick: and Other Essays. The collection has been described as “essential\,” and the Chicago Tribune calls Tressie\, “the author you need to read now.” Dorothy Roberts compares reading it to “holding a mirror to your soul and to that of America.” Thick was the winner of the Brooklyn Public Library Literary Prize and was a finalist for the 2019 National Book Award.\n\nTressie serves on dozens of academic and philanthropic boards and publishes widely on issues of inequality\, work\, higher education and technology. She is an associate professor in the School of Information and Library Science at the University of North Carolina-Chapel Hill and Senior Research Fellow at the Center for Information\, Technology\, and Public Life (UNC). She was awarded the MacArthur Fellowship in 2020. \n\nTressie also co-hosts Hear to Slay with Roxane Gay\, a podcast with an intersectional perspective on celebrity\, culture\, politics\, art\, life\, love\, and more.

But what’s all the fuss about? Worldwide\, E-bikes are the fastest growing sector of the bike industry\, and there are several reasons for their rapid rise in appeal. We will look at what exactly is an E-bike and why they are so sought after with the Baby Boomer generation\, and among commuters\, businesses\, and municipalities.\n\nThere are so many different types of E-bikes on the market that it can be overwhelming to learn about them all. We will try to simplify it\, going over the fundamentals\, to see whether an E-bike might be right for you and how you should choose which type will suit you best.\n\nPresenters Jim Summers and Kim Mayes own and operate H.E.H. Human Electric Hybrids. They have been in the E-bike business for eight years. \n\nJim was a controls engineer\, cycling to work 20 miles each way when he built his first E-bike to make his commute easier. He immediately saw the potential for E-bikes to enable more people to ride a bike. He also envisioned a future when more people would replace car trips with bicycle trips. Jim started building E-bikes for others\, then left his engineering job in 2014 to sell E-bikes full time. Jim’s wife\, Kim\, joined him in the business in 2018.\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.

For instructions\, please email cmenas@umich.edu with the subject “Request to watch ‘Stray'”\n \nAbout the film:\nThrough the eyes of three stray dogs wandering the streets of Istanbul\, STRAY explores what it means to live as a being without status or security. As they search for food and shelter\, Zeytin\, Nazar and Kartal embark on inconspicuous journeys through Turkish society that allow us an unvarnished portrait of human life — and their own canine culture.\n \nZeytin\, fiercely independent\, embarks on solitary adventures through the city at night\; Nazar\, nurturing and protective\, easily befriends the humans around her\; while Kartal\, a shy puppy living on the outskirts of a construction site\, finds refuge with the security guards who care for her. The disparate lives of Zeytin\, Nazar and Kartal intersect when they each form intimate bonds with a group of young Syrians who share the streets with them.\n \nWhether they lead us into bustling streets or decrepit ruins\, the gaze of these strays act as windows into the overlooked corners of society: women in loveless marriages\, protesters without arms\, refugees without sanctuary. The film is a critical observation of human civilization through the unfamiliar gaze of dogs and a sensory voyage into new ways of seeing.\n\nCo-sponsor: Michigan Theatre UID:82750-21171595@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/82750 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:center for middle eastern and north african studies,cmenas,Film,Middle East Studies,Virtual LOCATION:Off Campus Location CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20210316T090733 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20210318T080000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20210318T220000 SUMMARY:Meeting:East Quad Multicultural Council Presents: Women's History Month Scavenger Hunt DESCRIPTION:Come celebrate Women's History Month with the Residential College RAs and Abeng Multicultural Council!

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.

Murdock\n\nEsme G. Murdock received her Ph.D. in the Department of Philosophy at Michigan State University\, and is an Assistant Professor of American Indian Studies at San Diego State University and a Mellon Postdoctoral Fellow in the Department of Philosophy at the Pennsylvania State University for the 2020-2021 Academic Year.\n\nHer research interests include environmental justice\, Indigenous and Afro-descended environmental ethics\, settler colonial theory\, and decolonization as land/resource rematriation. Murdock comes to this work as a descendant of enslaved Africans and settlers in North America. Her current work explores the devastating impacts of colonization and slavery on both Indigenous and Afro-descended peoples and environments on Turtle Island. She anchors her understanding of settler colonialism\, in particular\, in the experiences and theorization of Native and Black communities\, especially toward securing decolonial futures. She often writes back to mainstream environmental discourse that attempts to “read out” colonization as the context of environmental degradation and destruction\, particularly in the settler colonies of the United States and Canada. Her work centers conceptions of land and relating to land found within both Indigenous and African American/Afro-descended environmental philosophies. Murdock has work published in Environmental Values\, Global Ethics\, Hypatia\, Agricultural and Environmental Ethics\, and World Philosophies. Murdock’s first book manuscript is a land history of the South Carolina Sea Coast that engages in the diverse and often erased ecological histories\, ecological heritages\, ethnobotanical knowledges\, and complex relations of Indigenous and Afro-descended peoples within the colonial complex of multiple European powers.

In addition to a current project which aims to (re)edit the rich epigraphic material uncovered in situ\, approximately 400 pre-Late Period inscriptions\, this corpus has recently been re-explored in terms of writing practices. Through a multidimensional perspective\, Vincent Morel will give some new insights into what these engravings “tell” beyond the strictly linguistic level. Focusing on the Old Kingdom material (3rd millennium BCE)\, he will make use of an original heuristic approach\, associating material\, visual\, and (inter[icono])textual investigations\, to better understand the intelligibility of the writing act itself\, in a liminal place where the mere mortal could partake in the divine.\n\nPlease note\, this lecture takes place at 12 p.m. Eastern.\n\nJoin Zoom Meeting\nhttps://umich.zoom.us/j/99474810409\n\nFAST lectures are free and open to the public.

U-M Industrial and Operations Engineering graduate students and faculty are especially encouraged to attend.\n\nTitle:\nOptimizing the First Response to Sepsis: An Electronic Health Record-based Markov Decision Process Model for Personalizing Acute Care for Deteriorating Patients\n\nAbstract:\nSepsis is considered a medical emergency where delays in initial treatment are associated with increased morbidity and mortality. It is a life-threatening organ dysfunction caused by a dysregulated host response to infection. Sepsis affects more than 1.7 million Americans each year\, causing approximately 270\,000 deaths annually. One in three hospitalized patient deaths are associated with sepsis. In 2019\, the total cost of sepsis care for inpatient admission and skilled nursing facility admission was estimated at more than $62 billion. Sepsis is a significant healthcare challenge\, where the lack of a gold standard for diagnosis causes inconsistencies in categorizing sepsis phenotypes and accurately capturing patients’ trajectories\, which evolve stochastically over time. This makes treatment decision making and early intervention difficult. We integrate electronic health record (EHR) data with clinical expertise to develop a continuous-time Markov decision process model of the natural history of sepsis. We use this model to better understand the stochastic nature of patients’ health trajectories and determine the optimal treatment policy to minimize mortality and morbidity. Specifically\, the optimal health states for first anti-infective and first fluid are identified. We formulate this as a stopping problem in which the patient leaves the system when he or she receives the first treatment (intervention) and receives a lump sum reward. Our objective is to find the optimal first intervention for health states to minimize expected mortality and morbidity. We explore the effect of the complex trade-offs associated with the intervention costs and patient disposition costs which are subjective and difficult to estimate. Our model captures the natural progression along sepsis trajectory using a clinically defined treatment delayed population. The model translates observations of patient health as defined by vitals and laboratory results recorded during hospitalization in the EHR to capture the complex evolution of sepsis within a patient population. This framework provides key insights into sepsis patients’ stochastic trajectories and informs clinical decision making associated with caring for these patients as their health dynamically evolves.\n\nBio:\nJulie Simmons Ivy is a Professor in the Edward P.

In recent years\, following the discovery of water jets spewing out of Saturn’s icy moon\, Enceladus\, numerous efforts have been undertaken to look for plume activity at Europa. Data that have been analyzed so far include telescopic observations covering a wide range of wavelengths as well as in situ data acquired by NASA’s Galileo spacecraft that conducted multiple close flybys of the moon during its mission. Signatures of putative water plumes have indeed been identified in Hubble Space Telescope images and a re-analysis of the Galileo magnetic field and plasma wave data suggests that the spacecraft passed through a plume during its closest encounter with Europa. In this presentation we will review current evidence of plumes on Europa and discuss various challenges encountered in the search for plume activity. We will also provide an outlook for future missions to the Jupiter system\, such as the Europa Clipper and JUICE missions\, that will offer new opportunities for probing plume activity at Europa.\n\nPlease join us!

R. Walker\nSchool of Aerospace Engineering\nHigh-Power Electric Propulsion Laboratory\nGeorgia Institute of Technology\n\nElectric propulsion devices are rapidly replacing traditional chemical rockets on spacecraft. Electric propulsion devices possess a combination of high specific impulse and high thrust efficiency that drastically reduce the mass of propellant required to perform a specific mission. Satellite operators leverage these characteristics to reduce the mass\, size\, and launch cost of a spacecraft while maintaining its payload capability. The drawback of electric propulsion is that the thrust level is limited by the electrical power available on the spacecraft. Thus\, the required operational life of electric propulsion devices is thousands of hours.\n\nThe Hall effect thruster (HET) is a type of electric propulsion routinely flown on spacecraft. Currently\, HET development requires expensive\, high-risk\, ground-based qualification tests that exceed 7\,000 hours to demonstrate the necessary on-orbit lifetime. To date\, modeling efforts have been unable to predict the dominant failure mechanism observed in HET qualification tests. In particular\, how quickly does the accelerated plasma erode the ceramic HET discharge channel?\n\nThis presentation discusses an AFOSR-sponsored effort to develop a fundamental understanding of how the HET discharge plasma erodes the ceramic discharge channel. This knowledge will facilitate our ability to predict HET lifetime and will influence the design of future high-power HETs.\n\nAbout the speaker...\n\nMitchell L. R. Walker is a Professor of Aerospace Engineering and Associate Chair for Graduate Studies at Georgia Tech.

His research involves the simulations of the continuum level or microstructure level electrochemical dynamics of energy conversion/storage devices such as batteries\, fuel cells\, etc.\n\n\"SIMULATION OF EIS IN SOFC CATHODES USING SMOOTHED BOUNDARY METHOD\": Electrochemical impedance spectroscopy is the most commonly used technique for the in-situ characterization of solid oxide fuel cells (SOFC). In this presentation\, I will discuss about a method for simulating the impedance behavior of a mixed conducting SOFC cathode with an experimentally determined microstructure. I will also share the key insights that we generated through our work.\n\nBENJAMIN YANG: Ben is a 4th year PhD student in Dr. Carlos Aguilar’s Lab. His research explores the molecular mechanisms that regulate cellular fate plasticity using microfluidics\, cell-cell fusion\, and single-cell sequencing techniques.\n\n\"DECONSTRUCTING METASTATIC REGULATORS USING INTERSPECIES HETEROKARYONS\": Tumor metastasis\, the spread of cancer cells to sites beyond the primary tumor\, is the primary contributor to morbidity in cancer patients. While each step of the metastatic cascade is well characterized\, the molecular mechanisms responsible for initiating the cascade remain unclear\, inhibiting the efficacy of therapeutic modalities. We revisit a century-old hypothesis that changes in metastatic potential are conferred to tumor cells through fusion with neighboring stromal cells by fusing human breast cancer cells with brain-resident mouse microglia and astrocytes. Our main objectives are to assess how aberrant fusion between malignant cells and stromal cells overrides transcriptional safeguards against metastatic progression and to explore how fusion modifies the mechanical phenotype of tumor hybrids. Achieving these goals will advance our understanding of the biological significance of fusion events in metastasis and delineate markers that can serve as therapeutic targets.\n\nRegister to receive Zoom information: https://myumi.ch/dOA75 UID:83007-21237270@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/83007 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Computational Modeling,Computational Science,Scientific Computing LOCATION:Off Campus Location - Zoom CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20210106T140046 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20210318T161500 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20210318T170500 SUMMARY:Exercise / Fitness:Yoga Flow DESCRIPTION:This class focuses on clarity and well-being by helping you connect with your inner strength.

S. neoliberalism mediates itself through the U. S. national security state\, which is simultaneously a racial and a settler state\; this is expressed not merely in the racialization of the Asian and Pacific Islander peoples but significantly in the erasure of historical and ongoing settler colonialism and\, furthermore\, in a racial social order that simultaneously pronounces antiblackness and Islamophobia.” In the case of Korea\, such processes are evident in the ongoing division of the peninsula\, the presence of U. S. military bases\, and the praise for South Korea’s ascendency in the global capitalist order - even as this ascent remains contingent upon exploitation in other countries such as Vietnam and Indonesia.\n \n For this event\, we bring together E. Tammy Kim and Eunsong Kim to discuss these “transpacific entanglements” with U. S. neoliberalism\, militarization\, and racism that South Korea’s own position reveals. What are the legacies of militarism in Korea and how do they impact the everyday lives of Koreans within and outside the peninsula? What does South Korea’s position as a sub-empire reveal about the ways in which ongoing legacies of the Cold War affect the narratives around Asia and Asia America? How do such narratives manifest in the cultural politics of South Korea? How can we form transnational spaces to counter the results and norms of U. S. militarism and work towards building solidarity outside the parameters inscribed by U. S. militarism? Please join us on Thursday\, March 18\, 2021 at 7pm PST for this important and timely conversation between E. Tammy Kim and Eunsong Kim.\n \n ABOUT THE SPEAKERS\n \n Eunsong Kim is an Assistant Professor in the Department of English and an affiliate faculty of the department of Cultures\, Societies and Global Studies at Northeastern University. Her practice spans: poetry\, translation\, visual culture and critical race & ethnic studies. Her book project in progress\, \"The Politics of Collecting: Property & Race & Aesthetic Formations\" considers how legal conceptions of racialized property become foundational to avant-garde and modern understandings of innovation in the arts. Her essays have appeared in: \"Lateral: Journal of the Cultural Studies Association\,\" \"Journal of Critical Library and Information Studies\,\" and in the book anthologies\, \"Poetics of Social Engagement and Reading Modernism with Machines.\" Her poetry has appeared in the Brooklyn Magazine\, The Iowa Review\, Minnesota Review\, and P-Queue amongst others. Her first book of poetry\, \"gospel of regicide\,\" was published by Noemi Press in 2017\, and her co-translation (with Sung Gi Kim) of Kim Eon Hee’s poetic text \"Have You Been Feeling Blue These Days?\" was published in 2019. She is the recipient of the Ford Foundation Fellowship\, a grant from the Andy Warhol Art Writers Program\, and Yale’s Poynter Fellowship.\n \n E.

In the end\, what is most striking about the movie is its pervasive sense of loss — of family\, of country — and the dystopian vision of a new normal in which ordinary people are reduced to hunters and the hunted. Here\, after the gunfire dies down\, terror at times gives way to a melancholy that can be quite affecting even if the message remains familiar: We have met the zombie\, and it is us.” – Manohla Dargis\, New York Times\n\nKorean Cinema NOW 2021 will be presented through a virtual format.

For instructions\, please email cmenas@umich.edu with the subject “Request to watch ‘Stray'”\n \nAbout the film:\nThrough the eyes of three stray dogs wandering the streets of Istanbul\, STRAY explores what it means to live as a being without status or security. As they search for food and shelter\, Zeytin\, Nazar and Kartal embark on inconspicuous journeys through Turkish society that allow us an unvarnished portrait of human life — and their own canine culture.\n \nZeytin\, fiercely independent\, embarks on solitary adventures through the city at night\; Nazar\, nurturing and protective\, easily befriends the humans around her\; while Kartal\, a shy puppy living on the outskirts of a construction site\, finds refuge with the security guards who care for her. The disparate lives of Zeytin\, Nazar and Kartal intersect when they each form intimate bonds with a group of young Syrians who share the streets with them.\n \nWhether they lead us into bustling streets or decrepit ruins\, the gaze of these strays act as windows into the overlooked corners of society: women in loveless marriages\, protesters without arms\, refugees without sanctuary. The film is a critical observation of human civilization through the unfamiliar gaze of dogs and a sensory voyage into new ways of seeing.\n\nCo-sponsor: Michigan Theatre UID:82750-21171596@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/82750 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:center for middle eastern and north african studies,cmenas,Film,Middle East Studies,Virtual LOCATION:Off Campus Location CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20210316T090733 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20210319T080000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20210319T220000 SUMMARY:Meeting:East Quad Multicultural Council Presents: Women's History Month Scavenger Hunt DESCRIPTION:Come celebrate Women's History Month with the Residential College RAs and Abeng Multicultural Council!

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.

The phenomena of clustering of extremes have been extensively investigated in the literature since 1980s. However\, for most examples the extremal clustering occurs only locally. That is\, the locations of extremes within each cluster are bounded and shrink to a single point at the macroscopic level after normalization. For long-range clustering\, on the other hand\, the locations of extremes within each cluster are unbounded\, and they can be further characterized by a random closed set in the scaling limit. \n\nThere are two classes of models that recently have been shown to exhibit the phenomena of long-range clustering of extremes.

In this talk I will focus on two recent discoveries from our group: (1) how immune cells integrate substrate topology with cell movement based on some surprising biophysical properties of an actin regulator\, and (2) how T cells use ligand binding kinetics to discriminate self from non-self\, as we reveal with a light-regulatable T-cell receptor. \n Neutrophils are workhorses of your innate immune system and are programmed to migrate to sites of injury and infection. This requires them to integrate both chemical cues (such as soluble guidance cues) as well as mechanical cues (such as finding pores in dense collagen meshworks). How these cells coordinate their shape and movement with their external environment is not well understood. We recently discovered that a key actin regulator integrates substrate topology with cell movement by acting as a link between cell polarity and substrate-induced curvature of the plasma membrane. I will cover some of the surprising biophysical features of this actin regulator that enable this integration to occur.\n To detect rare antigenic peptides in a sea of self-peptide\, T cells are thought to convert small changes in ligand binding half-life to large changes in cell activation. Such a kinetic proofreading model has been difficult to test directly\, as we have lacked tools to specifically manipulate ligand binding half-life. We developed an optogenetic approach to specifically tune the binding half-life of a light-responsive ligand to a T cell receptor without changing other binding parameters. Our results provide direct evidence of kinetic proofreading in ligand discrimination in T cells and reveal where in the signaling cascade this computation is executed This approach could be used to dissect other signaling cascades where binding kinetics play a central role in signal transmission.

From the vantage point of a continent that both resents and covets American power\, and is in little position to do anything about it\, African Americans represent to many in Europe a redemptive force—living proof that the U.S. is both not all that it claims to be and could be so much greater than it is. This sense of superiority is made possible\, in no small part\, by a woefully\, willfully incomplete and toxic nostalgia of Europe's own colonial history which has left significant room for denial\, distortion\, ignorance\, and sophistry. The result\, in the post-war era\, has been moments of solidarity often impaired by exocitization or infantilization in which Europe has found it easier to export anti-racism across the Atlantic than to practice it at home or export it across the Mediterranean and beyond.\n \nGary Younge is a journalist\, author\, broadcaster\, and professor of sociology at the University of Manchester in England.

Tradition Never Dies: “Lắng nghe\,” Active Listening\, and Activism in Contemporary Vietnam DESCRIPTION:This event is free and open to the public\; please register at https://bit.ly/3lzI791\nFriday\, March 19\, 2021\, 12 PM EST\n\nTradition always seems to be dying\, or so say “the experts.” Scholars at academic conferences\, diplomats at UNESCO\, and government policy makers have belabored tradition’s downfall for decades as evidence of the necessity of intervention. Frequently\, however\, these interventions hide ulterior motives—for scholars\, codifying traditions advance their careers\; for diplomats\, supporting the documentation of art bolsters tradition for consumption\; for policy makers\, selectively supporting certain practices over others serves nation-building strategies. These experts also tend to ignore the voices of practitioners themselves. Had these experts listened\, they would have understood that tradition remains firmly tied to everyday life and even activism.\n\nIn this presentation\, I examine how “tradition” lives a vibrant life in contemporary Vietnam and suggest that we retire the trite adage that tradition is dying. Tradition is tested\, certainly\, and frequently is reframed and revised\; indeed\, one genre of southern Vietnamese opera\, cải lương\, includes renovation (cải) in the genre name. Television shows\, films\, and popular music present many examples of how tradition does not simply inspire but is actively practiced and carried forward. In the television show Tài tử miệt vườn (Countryside Amateur)\, singers of southern Vietnamese traditional music from all walks of life receive praise from a panel of established singers and teach traditional music to viewers within a flashy gameshow format. In the film Song Lang (2018)\, director Leon Le tells a love story of two men in the 1980s and uses sounds of cải lương to give voice to LGBT voices on screen. In the music video for “BET ON ME” by the rapper Suboi\, sounds of the đàn tranh zither mix with a Beyoncé-like delivery of lyrics to advocate for particular kinds of listening in an increasingly modernized Vietnam. All of these examples advance activism through tradition for forms of living to which we need to listen more closely.\n \nDr. Alexander M. Cannon is Lecturer in Music at the University of Birmingham (UK)\, where he teaches classes in ethnomusicology\, critical musicology\, and the traditional musics of Asia. He further serves as Co-editor of Ethnomusicology Forum\, the journal of the British Forum for Ethnomusicology (BFE)\, and sits on the BFE Committee. He formerly served as Book Reviews Editor for the Yearbook of Traditional Music and as Secretary of the Board for the Society for Asian Music. An alumnus of the University of Michigan\, he holds an MA and PhD in ethnomusicology from the School of Music\, Theatre and Dance\, where he wrote a dissertation on the southern Vietnamese traditional music genre đờn ca tài tử (music of talented amateurs). He recently completed a book manuscript titled “A Music Without a Name”: Creativity from Seed to Ruin in Southern Vietnam\, and also has an article forthcoming in the journal Ethnomusicology. He has previously published in Ethnomusicology\, Ethnomusicology Forum\, Asian Music\, and the Journal of Vietnamese Studies.\n \n---\nIf there is anything we can do to make this event accessible to you\, please contact us.

With only the minimal protection offered by their cell envelope\, fluctuations in nutrient availability\, pH\, osmolarity\, and temperature have an immediate impact on diverse aspects of cell physiology as bacteria struggle to adapt to the new condition. On a more extended time scale\, nutrient availability is one of the major determinants of bacterial cell morphology. *Escherichia coli* cells are three times larger when cultured at steady state in nutrient rich conditions than in nutrient poor ones\, due to the actions of nutrient-dependent division inhibitors\, accelerated lipid synthesis and a concomitant increase in plasma membrane capacity\, and other yet to be identified factors. Little is known\, however\, about the effect of other environmental conditions on bacterial cell morphology. Focusing on one environmental variable\, I will discuss how modest changes in pH—too small to affect growth rate—alter the activity of the essential proteins that construct *E. coli*’s peptidoglycan cell wall\, increase resistance to clinically relevant antibiotics\, and reduce cell length by as much as 20%. Together this work identifies pH as a significant environmental determinant of bacterial physiology and morphogenesis whose impact is mediated primarily through changes in the cell envelope.\n\nHost: Anthony Vecchiarelli UID:82376-21084383@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/82376 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Basic Science,Biology,Biosciences,Bsbsigns,Natural Sciences,Research,Science,symposium LOCATION:Off Campus Location CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20210122T111920 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20210319T120000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20210319T133000 SUMMARY:Livestream / Virtual:Gendered Consequences of Systems Involvement DESCRIPTION:Facilitators: \n- Paige Sweet\, Assistant Professor of Sociology\, U-M\n- Lisa Young Larance\, PhD Student.

I'll explain why the title of the talk makes sense anyway by discussing some simple QFTs which have false vacua which can live an arbitrarily long time. Their lifetime is set by the short-distance details of the theory\, rather than the familiar long-distance ingridients discussed in textbook presentations of false-vacuum decay. The talk will focus on examples in 2d and 4d\, with the 4d example having the same propagating degrees of freedom as conventional QCD\, and the (near) eternal false vacua will turn out to be consequences of (nearly exact) (d-3)-form global symmetries.

DESCRIPTION:There has been an explosion in recent years of scholarship on social reproduction theory (SRT)\, which builds on a long tradition of critique within Marxist feminist scholarship that has focused on the labor required to produce workers and society as a whole. While it arose out of the need to explain the continued oppression of women under capitalism\, the SRT framework has been extended to understanding racism and other sources of division between workers. SRT offers a perspective on the link between the oppressive logics of “race\,” sexuality\, ability\, gender\, and more\, with the development and actualization of labor powers. In short\, a renewed SRT provides a historical materialist theory of multiple oppressions within capitalist society. This body of scholarship\, varied in its political and theoretical orientations\, takes as its subject precisely the continuous and daily reproduction of capitalism as a system. Our round table discussion consists of a conversation with Tithi Bhattacharya\, one of the foremost proponents of social reproduction theory\, on some of the recent developments in SRT and their relevance in our current conjuncture.\n\nRegistrants will receive a link to a pre-circulated paper by Professor Bhattacharya.\n\nFor a brief video explaining social reproduction theory\, please visit: \nhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Uur-pMk7XjY\n\nPanelists:\nTithi Bhattacharya\, Associate Professor\, History\, Purdue University\nSueann Caulfield\, Associate Professor\, History\, University of Michigan\nEmily A.

The Chincha Valley is also known as being one of the points of study in Dorothy Menzel's seminal analysis on the pottery of the south coast of Peru. While Menzel's research was the first of its kind\, very few attempts have been made to conduct an intensive study on the pottery of Chincha in order to obtain insights into the socioeconomic and political organization of the area. Thus\, the purpose of this talk is to employ a much larger and diverse pottery sample in order to understand the nature of production\, distribution\, and exchange of pottery in the Chincha Valley.\n\n\nRising Complexity on the Frontier:\nIsotopic Evidence of Administration at Iron Age Khirbet Summeily\, Israel: Kara Larson\n\n Khirbet Summeily is an Iron Age II site located northwest of Tell el-Hesi in Southern Israel. Excavations have revealed a large\, singular structure with an adjoining ritual space dated to the Iron Age IIA (ca. 1000-870 bce). Recent interpretations suggest the site was integrated into a regional economic and political system and functioned as a potential administrative outpost based on the material culture and architecture recovered from the Iron Age IIA layers. This talk presents the carbon\, oxygen\, and strontium isotopic analyses of intra-tooth samples from ovicaprine and cattle remains to test herd management strategies in connection to administrative provisioning activities. The animal remains are used as proxies to identify political and economic ties through shared foodways and herd management patterns. Results suggest that the animals recovered at Khirbet Summeily were raised in local and non-local locations with differential diet and management patterns. This supports the hypothesis from other cultural material finds that Khirbet Summeily acted as an administrative outpost in the region. This is the first isotopic evidence indicating an administrative outpost in the Greater Hesi region and provides evidence for reforming political complexity during the Iron Age IIA.

Historically\, mammalian carnivores have faced severe range contractions\, but\, in some places\, they are naturally re-expanding or being reintroduced\, accompanied by a range of political dilemmas and public misconceptions. In combination with traditional conservation studies of extant populations\, I provide historic and pre-European baselines to anticipate these dilemmas and distinguish between novel behaviors versus the return of normal\, pre-contraction variation. Museum collections (natural history\, archaeological\, and paleontological can provide unexpected spaces for policy-relevant dialogues among stakeholders and be at the center of interdisciplinary working groups including ecologists\, paleontologists\, historians\, practitioners and social scientists. Employing a diverse range of geochemical\, morphological and archival techniques in a conservation paleobiology framework\, I have used museum collections to reframe public discourse on the reintroduction of grizzly bears to California\, discover the first successful case of North American “Pleistocene rewilding” for carnivores from the 1930s\, and evaluate how culturally important Japanese red foxes have responded to urbanization with attendant disease-transmission consequences. Given the cultural biases present in historical narratives of carnivore conflict\, museum specimens provide an irreplaceable mechanism for separating perception from reality to guide real-world policy decisions\, and museum exhibits themselves can be vehicles for communicating this new understanding.\n\nDaniel Park\nAssistant Professor\, Department of Biological Sciences\, Purdue University\n\nTalk title: Herbarium collections reveal wide variation in plant phenological responses to climate\n\nAbstract\nChanges in phenology–the timing of life history events–are among the most dramatic biological responses to climate change. Herbarium specimens represent snapshots of phenology (i.e. flowering and fruiting) at a specific place and time\, and have tremendous promise to increase the spatial\, temporal and taxonomic resolution of phenological data. However\, difficulties in extracting useful information from specimens efficiently have limited efforts to apply collections-based approaches to large-scale phenological research. Here we present two contrasting approaches for this purpose\; crowdsourcing and machine learning\; and discuss the promises and opportunities of applying specimen-derived data to phenological research. Using these approaches\, we examined tens of thousands of specimens and uncovered substantial and unexpected variation in phenological sensitivity across species ranges. We also observe patterns of temporal convergence among closely related species when they co-occur. These results suggest that phenological responses to climate change will be heterogeneous within communities and across regions\, with large amounts of regional variability driven by local adaptation\, phenotypic plasticity and differences in species assemblages. We thus demonstrate the utility of natural history collections in revealing large-scale patterns within assemblages and across continents that ultimately can improve forecasts of climatic change impacts on the structure and function of ecosystems.\n\nAlex White\nMachine Learning Postdoctoral Fellow\, Data Science Lab\, National Museum of Natural History\, Smithsonian Institution\n\nTalk title: Biogeography of fern shapes as revealed by deep learning\n\nAbstract\nWith digitized herbarium specimens and associated metadata accumulating rapidly in open access repositories\, we are now able to exploit data-hungry computer vision techniques in order to evaluate fundamental questions in plant evolution. High among the list of unknowns are the roles that ecological factors and morphological similarity play in mediating biogeographic patterns of taxonomic and phylogenetic diversity. Here\, I integrate deep convolutional neural networks (CNNs) into a biogeographic study of morphological\, taxonomic\, and phylogenetic diversity in ferns and lycophytes. I show how CNNs and digitized specimens can be used to extract quantitative estimates of morphospace occupation\, and I use these techniques to evaluate diversity-disparity relationships within ferns across latitudes. I also discuss how CNNs can be used to overcome logistical obstacles arising from modern specimen based workflows involving millions of images.\n\nRead more\, including about the speakers and their talks\, on the ECSS website: https://sites.lsa.umich.edu/ecss/ \n\nREGISTER: https://sites.lsa.umich.edu/ecss/home/register/ UID:81368-20887846@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/81368 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:AEM Featured,Biology,Biosciences,Bsbsigns,early career scientists,Museum,Museum - Herbarium,Museum - Zoology,Research,Research Museums Center,science LOCATION:Off Campus Location - Registration: myumi.ch/Jy07N CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20210403T123042 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20210319T130000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20210319T140000 SUMMARY:Careers / Jobs:Goldman Sachs Internal Audit 101 Spring 2021 DESCRIPTION:INTERNAL AUDIT\nIn Internal Audit\, we ensure that Goldman Sachs maintains effective\ncontrols by assessing the reliability of financialreports\, monitoring the\nfirm’s compliance with laws and regulations\,and advising management\non developing smart control solutions.

DESCRIPTION:Zoom meeting ID#913 6098 6089\nIn their seminal paper in 2002\, Joe Cartwright and Mads Huuse referred to 3D seismic reflection data as the 'Geological Hubble’\, arguing these data had the potential to revolutionise our understanding of the genesis and evolution of sedimentary basins. Almost two decades later\, I will here outline just some of the key recent advances made in our understanding of basin structure and stratigraphy\, focusing on: (i) the intrusion and extrusion of igneous rocks\; (ii) salt tectonics\; (iii) the geometry\, growth\, and seismogenic hazard posed by normal faults\; and (iv) the structure and emplacement of submarine landslides. I will stress that future advances in these and other areas relies on energy companies and government agencies continuing to make their data freely available via free\, easy-to-access data portals. I will issue a clarion call to academics\, stressing that ‘geodynamicists’\, sedimentologists\, structural geologists and geomorphologists\, amongst many\, many others\, can benefit from using what I believe are currently an underused data type. Most fundamentally\, seismic reflection data should be used across the undergraduate syllabus\, such that future generations of geoscientists are aware of its power and limitations.

Recent space-based telescopes have led to the new field of asteroseismology: by measuring global oscillation modes of a star\, you can infer its interior properties. Massive stars have convection in their cores which can generate waves\, which might be detectable at the surface. In the first part of this talk\, I will describe a heuristic way of estimating wave generation by convection\, and compare it to high-resolution numerical simulations in Cartesian geometry. To make quantitative predictions to compare with observations\, one must run simulations in spherical geometry. In the second part of my talk\, I will present a new spectral algorithm for solving nearly arbitrary\, tensorial PDEs in spherical coordinates. The challenge is to devise bases which respect regularity conditions at r=0\, which depend on the rank of the tensor. The algorithm can be easily applied to the problem of wave generation by convection in stars\, as well as a wide range of other problems in stellar astrophysics\, core geophysics\, and planetary sciences.\n\nPlease contact Charlie Doering (doering@umich.edu) with any questions.

However\, this can be difficult\, especially for more vulnerable patients who may lack the self-knowledge\, sufficient communication skills\, or appropriate information access. Such patients’ needs\, in consequence\, are often overlooked\, and their capacity to understand care information misjudged by providers and caregivers. To support patient empowerment and activation\, Sun Young Park’s research focuses on vulnerable individuals with low health literacy and a lack of information access and accessible tools and examines their needs and barriers.\n\nIn this talk\, Park presents work that investigates opportunities to empower and activate these vulnerable individuals through two case studies: patients in an emergency care setting and pediatric patients with cancer. The results of the studies reveal the details of the adaptation behaviors and experience of patients during an emergency care and pediatric cancer patients\, shedding light on a need for redesigning Health IT systems to engage patients\, who have not been sufficiently considered and involved in the current system design. In addition\, the results point to a need for design considerations to promote and enhance the patients’ positive experiences. This talk will conclude with broader implications for evaluating and designing a socio-technical system in complex healthcare contexts\, focusing on the role of HCI/design researchers in this emerging design space.\n\nSun Young Park\, PhD is an assistant professor in Stamps School of Art and Design and the School of Information at the University of Michigan. Her research lies at the intersection of Health Informatics\, Human Computer Interaction (HCI)\, and Computer Supported Cooperative Work (CSCW). In particular\, her research focuses on evaluating and designing health information systems and technologies in both the clinical and non-clinical settings. Her studies related to designing health IT systems that support healthcare providers’ information work\, focusing on healthcare consumers’ information needs and behaviors in the hospital setting\, earned a best paper award from the Journal of International Medical Informatics Association (IMIA)\, was chosen for the IMIA Yearbook 2013\, garnered a finalist nomination for the Diana Forsythe Award from the American Medical Informatics Association (AMIA). Her research projects have been funded by the National Science Foundation (NSF) CRII award in 2017\, the Agency of Healthcare Research and Quality (AHRQ) grant in 2018\, and the NSF CAREER award in 2020. She was inducted into the Inaugural Class of the Association for Computing Machinery (ACM) Future of Computing Academy in 2017. Park has served on many scientific and technical program committees for top-tier academic conferences\, including ACM CHI\, CSCW\, and DIS.\n\nOur 2020-2021 Series is brought to you with the support of our streaming partners\, Detroit Public Television and PBS Books.\n\nHow to WatchAll events will be webcast on Fridays at 8pm (ET) at http://pennystampsevents.org and https://dptv.org/pennystamps.

For instructions\, please email cmenas@umich.edu with the subject “Request to watch ‘Stray'”\n \nAbout the film:\nThrough the eyes of three stray dogs wandering the streets of Istanbul\, STRAY explores what it means to live as a being without status or security. As they search for food and shelter\, Zeytin\, Nazar and Kartal embark on inconspicuous journeys through Turkish society that allow us an unvarnished portrait of human life — and their own canine culture.\n \nZeytin\, fiercely independent\, embarks on solitary adventures through the city at night\; Nazar\, nurturing and protective\, easily befriends the humans around her\; while Kartal\, a shy puppy living on the outskirts of a construction site\, finds refuge with the security guards who care for her. The disparate lives of Zeytin\, Nazar and Kartal intersect when they each form intimate bonds with a group of young Syrians who share the streets with them.\n \nWhether they lead us into bustling streets or decrepit ruins\, the gaze of these strays act as windows into the overlooked corners of society: women in loveless marriages\, protesters without arms\, refugees without sanctuary. The film is a critical observation of human civilization through the unfamiliar gaze of dogs and a sensory voyage into new ways of seeing.\n\nCo-sponsor: Michigan Theatre UID:82750-21171597@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/82750 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:center for middle eastern and north african studies,cmenas,Film,Middle East Studies,Virtual LOCATION:Off Campus Location CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20210316T090733 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20210320T080000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20210320T220000 SUMMARY:Meeting:East Quad Multicultural Council Presents: Women's History Month Scavenger Hunt DESCRIPTION:Come celebrate Women's History Month with the Residential College RAs and Abeng Multicultural Council!

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.

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!
