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!

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.

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 primary research interests include experimental and theoretical studies of advanced plasma propulsion concepts for spacecraft. Dr. Walker received his Ph.D. in Aerospace Engineering from the University of Michigan in 2004.

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. Tammy Kim is a freelance reporter and essayist\, a contributing opinion writer for The New York Times\, and a co-host of the podcast Time to Say Goodbye. In 2016\, with Yale Professor Michael Veal\, she published Punk Ethnography\, a book about the politics of contemporary world music. She writes about the Koreas and labor and public goods in the U.S. for The New York Review of Books\, The Nation\, The New Yorker\, and many other outlets\, and previously worked at The New Yorkerand Al Jazeera America. Before pursuing a career in journalism\, Ms. Kim was a social justice attorney\, and she has been active in the U.S. labor movement. She is currently the 2021 James H.

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. One is the Karlin model\, which this talk will focus on. The other is the so-called stable-regenerative model\, of which if time permits I will highlight briefly some key features. \n\nBased on joint works with Olivier Durieu (Université de Tours\, France) and Gennady Samorodnitsky (Cornell University\, USA). \n\nThis seminar will be livestreamed via Zoom https://umich.zoom.us/j/94350208889 There will be a virtual reception to follow UID:80568-20740181@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/80568 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:seminar LOCATION:Off Campus Location CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20210316T085755 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20210319T100000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20210319T110000 SUMMARY:Livestream / Virtual:Information Session DESCRIPTION:Are you interested in learning more about the requirements for the German major/minor\, and about (virtual) study-abroad opportunities in Germany?

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.

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.

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.

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:82750-21171598@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:20210321T080000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20210321T220000 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.

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:82750-21171599@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:20210322T080000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20210322T220000 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.

Researchers who address questions with social and political significance may find themselves in fraught positions where they must defend their ethics and morality\, disciplinary training\, and status as objective investigators. In this talk\, I show how a subfield of researchers who have strong moral and social obligations to improving the lives of vulnerable children through scientific research become the center of controversy\, drawing criticism from both progressives and conservatives alike. These neuroscientists and developmental psychologists study the impact of poverty and adversity on the developing brain and suggest that children’s cognitive abilities and mental health are affected by experiences in early childhood\; they argue that their studies are powerful evidence that add to the literature on the social determinants of health. Despite these good intentions\, scientists face criticism from progressives that their research is racist and eugenicist\, and from conservatives that they are hijacking objective science to further their political ends. I detail the different ways that scientists respond to these claims using conceptions of hope\, plasticity\, and anti-determinism. Their experiences suggest that scientists doing research with great social and political significance are likely to face controversy where their objectivity and morality are questioned. I argue we should not back away from contentious topics\, but instead engage with expert communities and lay publics to negotiate the kinds of political science and social justice we conduct in the university.

This play explores the challenges a family faces as they confront their own attitudes about acceptance and visibility while trying to honor the memory of a loved one. Written by playwright Dawn Richberg\, this short play explores some of the issues faced by those in the LGTBQ community. A discussion with the playwright and the actors will follow.\nPlaywright and poet Dawn Richberg is an Ann Arbor-based writer currently working on an M.F.A. in playwriting at Western Michigan University. Her ten-minute play The Special Friend was chosen for selection in the 2020 Kennedy Center American College Theatre Festival. Dawn’s goal as a writer is to use the page and the stage to tell good stories\, particularly stories that affirm the lives and diversity of experiences of African Americans.\nRegistration is required at https://myumi.ch/xmZP0.\nWe want to ensure full and equitable participation in our events.

The popular control view argues that one acts if and only if one agentially controls a movement. But is an agent in control only when causally affecting an occurrent movement in the right way? Or is having the capacity to affect the unfolding movement\, as needed\, sufficient for agential control? According to the \"Capacity View\"\, whether I control a movement is not settled by what I do to control it\, but by what I could do to control it. I show that this is wrong\, since there are controlled movements for which agents have the capacity for control\, yet which are neither actions nor agentially controlled. These are movements like your passive breathing and blinking\, which are controlled by bodily subsystems and allow for agential interference. The capacity view is unable to separate the passive process from the active interference. Consequently\, the capacity for agential control can neither be a sufficient condition for action\, nor for agential control.

However\, the changing nature of work\, largely influenced by the rise of digital technologies and smart machines\, is calling for curricular change to integrate the drive of big data in design and analysis\; the modularized\, continuous and recombined nature of learning with work\; and the grounding in human relationships as it affects productivity\, teamwork and equity. I share my journey from a personal interest in studying the Apollo Lunar Module to an interest in engineering education research. Engineers can benefit from social science research to explore the increased connectivity and interaction between humans and machines\, and to understand the shift in the way we relate to one another\, and the way we see cultures\, economies\, and institutions. I structure my talk around three major themes of my work: adaptability\, risk-taking and value-making. I share my vision for the implications on the Aerospace Engineering curriculum and its purpose in graduating engineers who are socially conscious\, who can survive change\, and who are able to shift to new directions.\n\n\nAbout the speaker...\n\nHadi studies the influence of the future of work on curricular innovation. Hadi was a Faculty Associate at The Polytechnic School at ASU and\, before that\, a Future Faculty Fellow in Engineering Education at Purdue. He taught at the Minority in Engineering Program at Purdue. Prior to joining ASU\, Hadi worked at the University of Jordan as a facilitator for curricular change and instructor in Mechatronics.\n \nHadi is completing his PhD in Engineering Education Systems and Design at ASU. He has MS degree in Aeronautics and Astronautics (space systems design\, and astrodynamics)\, MSE degree in Electrical and Computer Engineering (artificial intelligence\, fields and optics)\, MS degree in Engineering Education (design cognition and human communication inquiry)\, B.Sc. degree in Aeronautics and Astronautics (propulsion and design) all from Purdue University\; and an undergraduate degree in Mechanical Engineering (design) from the University of Jordan.\n \nHe was awarded the 2013 Magoon Award for Excellence in Teaching at Purdue. His essay on “How might engineering design be used to better teach engineering analysis?” won the first place in the 2018 ASEE’s DEED competition. Recently\, he was awarded the 2020 Wellness Committee Member of the Year for his work with the Graduate Students Association at ASU.

Shared Sovereignty and Accountability in Fragile States DESCRIPTION:Please note: This event will be held virtually ET through Zoom. This webinar is free and open to the public\, but registration is required. Once you've registered the joining information will be sent to your email.\n\nRegister at: https://myumi.ch/AxyeW\n \n Promoting accountability for human rights violations is often a central element of peacebuilding in conflict-torn states. When domestic rule-of-law institutions have foundered\, some governments have taken the remarkable step of inviting international actors to step into the breach. The United Nations in particular has sometimes shared core sovereign authorities to enforce laws\, probe crimes\, and prosecute and adjudicate them. These joint ventures aim to combine local and international knowledge and resources to advance accountability. In practice\, however\, sharing sovereign authority is very difficult to carry out effectively.\n \n This Donia Human Rights Center event will feature a discussion of “Sovereignty Sharing in Fragile States” a new book by University of Michigan Gerald R. Ford School of Public Policy professor John Ciorciari in conversation with Prof. Susanna Campbell of American University\, an expert on peacebuilding and international interventions. Ciorciari will share findings from the book\, outlining conditions under which shared sovereignty tends to fail or succeed in advancing accountability for human rights violations. He will pay special attention to the contrasting experiences of “hybrid” criminal tribunals for Sierra Leone\, Cambodia and Lebanon and a unique international anti-impunity commission in Guatemala. Campbell will offer comments and insights based on her extensive research on global-local interactions in international peacebuilding initiatives in Africa\, Asia\, and beyond.\n\nThis event is co-sponsored by: Center for Southeast Asian Studies\, and the Gerald R. Ford School of Public Policy International Policy Center and Weiser Diplomacy Center.\n \n John D. Ciorciari is an associate professor of public policy at the University of Michigan’s Gerald R. Ford School of Public Policy\, where he directs the Weiser Diplomacy Center and International Policy Center. He is also a faculty affiliate of the Donia Human Rights Center. His research focuses on international law and politics in the Global South\, with a particular focus on Asia. He is the author of \"Sovereignty Sharing in Fragile States\" (Stanford University Press\, 2021) and co-author of \"Hybrid Justice: The Extraordinary Chambers in the Courts of Cambodia\" (University of Michigan Press 2014)\, among other articles and books. He has been an Andrew Carnegie Fellow\, an Asia Society Fellow\, a postdoctoral fellow at Stanford\, a policy official in the U.S. Treasury Department's Office of International Affairs\, and an associate at the international law firm of Davis Polk & Wardwell. He holds a BA and JD from Harvard and an MPhil and DPhil from Oxford\, where he was a Fulbright Scholar.\n \nSusanna Campbell is assistant professor at the School of International Service at American University and director of the Research on International Policy Implementation Lab. Her research focuses on statebuilding\, peacebuilding\, peacekeeping\, international development and humanitarian aid\, international institutions and NGOs\, and issues of civil war and peace. She is the author of \"Global Governance and Local Peace\" (Cambridge University Press\, 2018) and co-author of book manuscript entitled \"Aid in Conflict.\" She has conducted extensive fieldwork in conflict-affected countries\, received several large grants for her research\, and published widely in prominent peer-reviewed journals. She also engages regularly in policy practice. She directs the Research on International Policy Implementation Lab (RIPIL)\, an affiliate of Bridging the Gap\, and recently completed her term as a senior advisor for the congressionally-mandated Task Force on Extremism in Fragile States. She has led evaluations of the United Nations Peacebuilding Fund\, United Nations Development Program\, the World Bank\, the UK Department for International Development (DFID)\, and Care International. She has also worked for the Council on Foreign Relations and UNICEF Burundi. She received her PhD in 2012 from Tufts University and was a Post-Doctoral Researcher at The Graduate Institute in Geneva and Columbia University’s Saltzman Institute of War and Peace Studies.\n\nIf there is anything we can do to make this event accessible to you\, please contact us at umichhumanrights@umich.edu.

Most of our current optimizations and evaluations focus on accuracy in output. Faithful generation is considered a nice to have\, a luxury. In this talk I make the argument that faithful generation is crucial to our generation technologies especially given the scale and impact NLP technologies have on people’s lives.\n\nMona Diab is a Full Professor of Computer Science at the George Washington University where she directs the Care4Lang NLP lab. She is also Research Scientist with Facebook AI. She conducts research in Statistical Natural Language Processing (NLP) is a rapidly growing\, exciting field of research in artificial intelligence and computer science. Interdisciplinarity is inherent to NLP\, drawing on the fields of computer algorithms\, software engineering\, statistics\, machine learning\, linguistics\, pragmatics\, information technology\, etc. In NLP\, researchers model language and its use\, and build both analytical models and predictive ones. In Professor Diab’s NLP lab\, they address problems in social media processing\, building robust enabling technologies such as syntactic and semantic processing tools for written texts in different languages\, information extraction tools for large data\, multilingual processing\, machine translation\, and computational sociolinguistic processing. Professor Diab has a special interest in Arabic NLP\, where the emphasis has been on investigating Arabic dialect processing where there are very few available automated resources.

A Conversation on Prototype Nation DESCRIPTION:How did China’s mass manufacturing and “copycat” production transform\, in the global tech imagination\, from something holding the nation back to a key asset? Prototype Nation offers a rich transnational analysis of how the promise of democratized innovation and entrepreneurial life has shaped China’s governance and global image. With historical precision and ethnographic detail\, Silvia Lindtner reveals how a growing distrust in Western models of progress and development\, including Silicon Valley and the tech industry after the financial crisis of 2007–08\, shaped the rise of the global maker movement and the vision of China as a “new frontier” of innovation. Lindtner’s investigations draw on more than a decade of research in experimental work spaces—makerspaces\, coworking spaces\, innovation hubs\, hackathons\, and startup weekends—in China\, the United States\, Africa\, Europe\, Taiwan\, and Singapore\, as well as in key sites of technology investment and industrial production—tech incubators\, corporate offices\, and factories. She examines how the ideals of the maker movement\, to intervene in social and economic structures\, served the technopolitical project of prototyping a “new” optimistic\, assertive\, and global China. In doing so\, Lindtner demonstrates that entrepreneurial living influences governance\, education\, policy\, investment\, and urban redesign in ways that normalize the endurance of sexism\, racism\, colonialism\, and labor exploitation. Prototype Nation shows that by attending to the bodies and sites that nurture entrepreneurial life\, technology can be extricated from the seemingly endless cycle of promise and violence.

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:82750-21171600@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:20210323T080000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20210323T220000 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.

As the demands for automation increase and the systems we design grow ever-more complex to accommodate advancing technology\, a question arises: how do we know we are safe? This talk demonstrates how formal methods are growing increasingly vital for the development of safety-critical aerospace systems\, and our ability to ensure safety and security of new designs for the next era in air and space.\n\nWe highlight success stories of formally-verified automation\, including NASA's automated Air Traffic Management (ATM) system and its equivalent for UAS (UTM). We contribute significant algorithmic advances to launch the design-time verification technique of model checking to new heights. Also\, we demonstrate how formal specifications can be carried through to system run time and used to take runtime verification out of this world... all the way to the International Space Station (ISS). Our real-time\, Realizable\, Responsive\, Unobtrusive Unit (R2U2) fills the gap of flight-certifiable reasoning that embeds on constrained safety-critical systems like UAS\, satellites\, and NASA's humanoid robot Robonaut2 on the ISS. We introduce projects launching in 2020 to further push the boundaries of both design-time and runtime verification\, asking the question\, how do we proceed safely from here?\n\nAbout the speaker...\n\nProfessor Kristin Yvonne Rozier heads the Laboratory for Temporal Logic in Aerospace Engineering at Iowa State University\; previously she spent 14 years as a Research Scientist at NASA and three semesters as an Assistant Professor at the University of Cincinnati. She earned her Ph.D. from Rice University and B.S. and M.S. degrees from The College of William and Mary. Dr. Rozier's research focuses on automated techniques for the formal specification\, validation\, and verification of safety critical systems. Her primary research interests include: design-time checking of system logic and system requirements\; runtime system health management\; and safety and security analysis.\n\nHer advances in computation for the aerospace domain earned her many awards including: the NSF CAREER Award\; the NASA Early Career Faculty Award\; American Helicopter Society's Howard Hughes Award\; Women in Aerospace Inaugural Initiative-Inspiration-Impact Award\; two NASA Group Achievement Awards\; two NASA Superior Accomplishment Awards\; Lockheed Martin Space Operations Lightning Award\; AIAA's Intelligent Systems Distinguished Service Award. She holds an endowed position as Black & Veatch faculty fellow\, is an Associate Fellow of AIAA\, and is a Senior Member of IEEE\, ACM\, and SWE. Dr. Rozier has served on the NASA Formal Methods Symposium Steering Committee since working to found that conference in 2008.

Our ability to identify and distinguish textures relies on the spectral analysis of these complex skin vibrations\, just as our ability to perceive natural sounds relies on the analysis of acoustic signal contents. Surprisingly little is known regarding how the frequency content of vibrations are encoded and analyzed in the primate brain. In this talk\, I will recount our efforts to search for the cortical basis of vibration perception. I will first present the clues revealed by multisensory interactions between touch and audition. I will then describe recently uncovered evidence for vibration frequency tuning in the human brain. Lastly\, I will show how we leveraged knowledge about vibration tuning to establish principles underlying bimanual cue integration. Collectively\, this work hints at the existence of a somatosensory cortical system dedicated to the encoding and elaboration of environmental vibrations.

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:82750-21171601@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:20210324T080000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20210324T220000 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.

To achieve herd (community) immunity\, 70–85% of the population must be vaccinated. The challenge of ensuring high demand for vaccination is a difficult and complicated challenge: Some refuse to be vaccinated because they do not trust the government and health organizations\, some refuse for religious reasons\, and others refuse because they simply do not believe that vaccines can provide the desired protections. Service-related issues like waiting times at vaccination facilities\, distance from home to the facilities\, the cost of vaccination\, and side effects all affect the population’s willingness to be vaccinated.\n\nEach community has its own reasons for vaccine hesitancy. It is crucial for government and health organizations to understand and identify the different and complex causes of vaccine hesitancy and design\, as rapidly as possible\, efforts to minimize hesitancy and its consequences. Service-related issues must also be considered. The location of vaccination facilities is crucial. These facilities must have the right equipment\, they should not be too far from the relevant population\, and they must employ the right personnel to vaccinate the population quickly with minimal waiting time. In addition\, countries must have robust and secure information systems that maintain information about the time of vaccination\, the type of vaccine\, and other important details. This is essential for keeping track of the services that have been provided and the services yet to be provided and reminding people of the importance\, timing\, and location of the next actions they must take.\n\nFrench interpretation provided.\n\nMODERATORS: \n• Dr. Baz Semo\, Managing Director\, Global Health Programs\, Global Health Division\, Chemonics International\n• Dr. Noel Watson\, Principal/Founder\, Ops Mend\nPANELISTS: \n• Dr. Katherine Bliss\, Senior Fellow\, Global Health Policy Center\, Center for Strategic and International Studies \n• Rev David Oginde\, Former Presiding Bishop Christ Is the Answer Ministries (CITAM)\, Chancellor of Pan Africa Christian (PAC) University.\n• Dr. Githinji Gitahi\, Global CEO\, Amref Health Africa\n• Dr. Laxmikant Palo\, Chief Executive Officer of PPHF \n• Dr. John Oladejo\, Director for Health Emergency Preparedness and Response at the Nigeria Centre for Disease Control (NCDC) UID:82895-21211379@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/82895 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:International,Public Health LOCATION:Off Campus Location CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20201210T132339 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20210324T100000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20210324T113000 SUMMARY:Class / Instruction:Some U.S. and Global Top 10’s in 2021 DESCRIPTION:This is a presentation for those who like Top 10 Lists!

Resettlement or Return? Shifting IDP Attitudes in Ukraine DESCRIPTION:In 2016 the number of internally displaced persons (IDPs) in Ukraine reached 1.6 million\, the vast majority of whom fled the conflict in the Donbas region of Eastern Ukraine\, initiated in early 2014. In this paper\, Cynthia Buckley focuses on how the duration of displacement\, household composition\, and region of resettlement among the displaced in Ukraine challenge and inform both policy and demographic approaches to internal forced migration and explore the implications of this sizable displacement for regional population trends and demands on state capacity in the long term. Employing Ukrainian government data\, UNHCR reports\, and a longitudinal set of surveys by the International Organization for Migration\, Professor Buckley explores relationships between IDP characteristics and region of resettlement and their intentions to return to pre-displacement areas of residence. Findings extend our understanding of the challenges raised by displacement for the Ukrainian state\, in addition to inviting a reconsideration of more general approaches to IDP processes and implications.\n \nCynthia Buckley is a CREES Visiting Scholar for the 2020-21 academic year. Professor Buckley received her Ph.D. in sociology from the University of Michigan in 1991 before joining the faculty of the University of Texas\, Austin. Between 2010-12 she served as the Program Director for Eurasia at the Social Science Research Council\, later moving to the Department of Sociology at the University of Illinois\, Urbana-Champaign. A social demographer\, her research focuses on the main drivers\, and implications\, of demographic change across Eurasia and appears in numerous academic journals\, policy briefs\, assessment reports\, and edited volumes. Her current research focuses on a MINERVA-funded investigation of state capacity challenges in the areas of healthcare (including COVID-19)\, elections\, and education in the multicultural countries of Estonia\, Georgia\, and Ukraine (with Ralph Clem and Erik Herron)\, and a solo book project on population change and social stability in Central Asia.\n \nRegistration is required for this Zoom webinar at https://myumi.ch/2DqvA\n\nIf there is anything we can do to make this event accessible to you\, please contact us at crees@umich.edu.

We explore how a pre-existing population of DM\, either alone or as part of a thermalized dark sector\, affects the dynamics of freeze-in. The UV sensitivity of this more general scenario\, which we dub “glaciation”\, is manifested in the dependence of the late-time relic abundance on the size of the initial population. We dispense rather quickly with the case of a stand-alone initial DM abundance\, which simply leads to an offset in the relic abundance compared to the standard scenario\, but we find rich and interesting dynamics in the case of a pre-existing thermalized dark sector. Our results have important consequences for direct detection experiments searching for freeze-in dark matter.

An implicit assumption in previous theorizing and research using this social-functional approach to leader emotions has been that leaders’ emotional expressions logically follow from the situation for followers and thus help followers who observe these expressions to better understand the situation. However\, leaders’ emotional expressions are not always predictable to followers. We extend the social-functional approach by investigating what happens when leader emotional displays are perceived as unpredictable by followers. We propose that leader emotional unpredictability sparks uncertainty among followers about how the leader allocates ranks and resources within the team\, which triggers intra-team power struggles. Such power struggles—intra-team conflicts over resources among followers—in turn undermine team performance. Using a multi-method approach\, we find support for our model in three studies\, including two laboratory experiments and a field study of 246 retail teams. The findings inform our understanding of how leaders’ emotional displays influence team performance\, extending the social-functional approach to emotion by illuminating how the perceived unpredictability of leaders’ emotional expressions can be dysfunctional for teams.

She had been reporting on the links between drug cartels\, public officials and thousands of individuals who had mysteriously disappeared. Eight years later\, her investigations were published simultaneously around the world as The Cartel Project.\n\nForbidden Stories\, a nonprofit newsroom created by Laurent Richard during his year as a Knight- Wallace Fellow at the University of Michigan\, organized the project\, secretly bringing together an international network of journalists dedicated to continue the work of Martinez. Sixty reporters from 18 countries\, followed her leads to expose a global network of Mexican drug cartels and their political connections around the world.\n\nJoin journalists Laurent Richard of Forbidden Stories\, Dana Priest of The Washington Post and Jorge Carrasco of Proceso with moderator\, Lynette Clemetson\, for a behind the scenes look at the global investigation and learn how collaborative journalism can keep alive the work of reporters who are silenced by threats\, censorship or death.

Benefiting from the exuberant thinking of Margaret Fuller and Georges Bataille (read alongside Emerson)\, my talk elaborates on the Emersonian scholarship of recent decades to discuss overabundance from a cardiovascular standpoint as a surging tide that rushes through concentric expansions\, and so the scientific impetus for Emerson’s anti-slavery thinking. Augmenting Emerson’s scientific abolitionism with archival evidence\, I further investigate his study of Emanuel Swedenborg—the Enlightenment scientist turned mystic—whose lost hematology dissolves anatomical boundaries so that the inward intensity of individuality must release itself and transfigure. Briefly reconstructing Emerson’s Swedenborgianism\, my talk uncovers a vision of ontological fecundity unfurled over his career that merges Swedenborg with an emerging strain of American radicalism exemplified by the Haitian Revolution. Finally\, I turn to Toussaint Louverture who for Emerson represents the heart’s emancipatory powers\, thus situating revolutionary change in an overactive heartbeat at the center of a momentous movement. With Louverture\, Emerson at last identifies the dawning of a new age\, an upheaval in residual experience through an utmost ecstasy.\n\n‘A nothing tormented by a nothing’ presented by Srdjan Cvjeticanin\n\nIn \"The Mast-Head\,\" the thirty-fifth chapter of Moby Dick\, Ishmael makes the following assertion: \"For nowadays\, the whale-fishery furnishes an asylum for many romantic\, melancholy\, and absent-minded young men\, disgusted with the cracking cares of earth\, and seeking sentiment in tar and blubber.\" The ensuing chapter\, \"The Quarter-Deck\,\" proves him right. With a rousing speech\, Ahab seduces his entire crew into abandoning their material interests and risking their lives in order to seek revenge against a whale\, a whale on whose white hump he piled \"the sum of all the general rage and hate felt by his whole race from Adam down.\" No sooner than Ahab stops to take a breath\, the Pequod's decks erupt into a deafening chant of  \"Death to Moby Dick.\" The capture is immediate. It happens so quickly and with such ease that Ahab confesses surprise. Why was it so simple\, so effortless to convince the entire crew to follow a madman into madness? The second chapter of my dissertation\, \"A nothing tormented by a nothing\,\" investigates the answer to this question. It does this by first conceptualizing the historico-philosophical conditions animated in Moby Dick and then constructing the theory of the subject operative in Melville's works (esp. Moby Dick\, Pierre\, Bartleby). After this\, I turn to Moby Dick and the \"Whiteness of the Whale\,\" by way of which I establish the crucial difference between Ishmael and Ahab\, and propose an answer for why Ishmael alone survives. I conclude by constructing the political theory I understand to be embedded in Melville's fictions and arguing for the political function of aesthetics. My talk covers the first part of this chapter.

Whereas an apology may indicate to some that the perpetrator has changed and deserves forgiveness\, other onlookers may continue to condemn them. What predicts condemnation\, even when a perpetrator apologizes? In the present paper\, we explore two factors that may jointly lead to this bias intolerance: Strong motivation to address bias coupled with beliefs that bias cannot change. Across five studies\, we examined White and straight participants’ (N = 1\,617) evaluations and condemnation of an apologetic ingroup perpetrator of anti-Black and anti-gay prejudice\, respectively\, as a function of beliefs that bias can change and motivations to address bias. Whether measured or manipulated\, greater belief that bias cannot change predicted evaluating the perpetrator as currently more biased and believing they would be more biased in the future\, compared to belief that bias can change. This relationship was not moderated by motivation to respond without prejudice. Believing bias cannot change did not straightforwardly predict greater condemnation. Among participants who believe bias cannot change\, those who were internally motivated to respond without prejudice were particularly likely to be “bias intolerant.” We also considered additional factors that might shape evaluations and condemnation of past prejudice and found that participants’ collective guilt was related to both greater prejudice evaluations and greater condemnation. By signaling anti-prejudice norms\, bias intolerance has the potential to reduce the expression of prejudice.\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:82208-21052543@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/82208 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Economics,seminar LOCATION:Off Campus Location CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20210127T075003 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20210324T140000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20210324T153000 SUMMARY:Meeting:CoderSpaces (Wednesdays) DESCRIPTION:Are you grappling with a piece of code\, trying to compute on a cluster\, or just getting started with a new method such as machine learning?

Aquinas\, for example\, stated that it is possible to separate representation and configuration. Later aestheticians\, informed by analytical philosophy\, referred to this capacity as ‘aspectual seeing’: seeing something ‘in’ a configuration\, or more radically seeing the configuration ‘as’ something. This lecture returns to ‘aspectual seeing’ in the belief that it illuminates current debates about materiality\, illusion\, emotion and fiction in medieval art. In particular\, it will reflect on (if not solve) the question of what human engagement with fictions consists of\, whether that engagement can motivate us to action and\, if so\, what that engagement tells us about the art-life divide as presently understood by some art historians and critics.\n\n\nPaul Binski writes widely on general issues of aesthetics\, rhetoric and the visual arts in the Middle Ages. He is Emeritus Professor of the History of Medieval Art at Cambridge University and a Fellow of Caius College\, Cambridge. He is a Fellow of the British Academy and a Corresponding Fellow of the Medieval Academy of America\, and was Slade Professor\, Oxford University\, 2006-7. He delivered the British Academy Aspects of Art Lecture\, 2001\, and the Paul Mellon Lectures\, National Gallery\, London and Yale University\, 2002-3. His publications include Becket’s Crown. Art and Imagination in Gothic England 1170-1300 (2004)\, Gothic Wonder: art\, artifice and the Decorated Style 1290-1350 (2014) and most recently Gothic Sculpture (2019). Later this year he will be Franklin D. Murphy Lecturer at the University of Kansas.

In this paper we discuss approaches to the measurement of changes in assortative mating. We derive two key conditions that a well-defined measure should satisfy. We argue that changes in assortativeness should be interpreted through a structural model of the marriage market\; in particular\, a crucial issue is how they relate to variations in the economic surplus generated by marriage. We propose a very general criterion of increase in assortativeness\, and show that almost all indices used in the literature are implied by our criterion with one notable exception\, that moreover violates one of our conditions. Finally\, we use our approach to evaluate the evolution of assortative matching in the US over the last decades\, and conclude that assortative matching has increased\, particularly at the top of the education distribution.\n\n* To join the seminar\, please contact at econ.events@umich.edu UID:81203-20872028@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/81203 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Economics,seminar LOCATION:Off Campus Location CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20210315T122644 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20210324T143000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20210324T160000 SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Pathways to Publishing (Part II) DESCRIPTION:Back by popular demand\, DSI Postdoc Elisabetta Ferrari will present a reprised discussion of how to bring your Digital Studies work to publication.

Only now\, the patterns are a million times smaller and driven by the wafer fab equipment industry. The most advanced plasma etching technique in production today is called atomic layer etching (ALE) in which a single layer is re-moved in a cyclic manner. This talk will review the ALE approach in comparison to conventional plasma etching techniques\, such as Reactive Ion Etching (RIE). As RIE reaches its fifth decade\, its drawbacks have become apparent. ALE offers better control by isolating steps in time and switching between the steps in a repeatable cycle. To the extent that an ALE process behaves ideally – with high ALE synergy and self-limiting behavior – the primary benefit is improved uniformity across all length scales: at the surface\, between different aspect ratios\, and across the full wafer. Another benefit that will be highlighted is the atomic-scale smoothness in topography of the surface left behind after etching. The underlying mechanism and benefits of plasma ALE will be described\, providing insight into the plasma science be-hind the ancient art of etching. Overall\, ALE is simpler to under-stand than conventional plasma etch processing\, and is proving to be important as we apply the art of etch at the atomic scale.\n\nAbout the Speaker: \nRichard A.

Ralph (Fred Hutchinson Cancer Research Center) DESCRIPTION:Abstract: Antibodies are an integral part of the adaptive immune response\, and are a critical component of both vaccine-induced and naturally-acquired immunity. The development of deep sequencing approaches in recent years has allowed us to sample a significant fraction of the diverse repertoire of B cell receptor sequences from which antibodies are made. These sequences encode a wealth of information on the somatic rearrangement and evolutionary processes that determine the contours of our antibody repertoires\, and thus our ability to respond appropriately to pathogens and vaccines. Extracting this information\, however\, requires a careful inference approach across several different analysis steps. I will describe the computational approaches that we have taken to solving these problems\, which constitute the partis software package\, and describe their application in several projects\, including HIV and Dengue data.\n\n* * *\n\nBiography: Duncan attended the University of California at Santa Cruz for his undergraduate studies in physics\, completing his thesis on energy transport in condensed matter theory in 2005. He completed his PhD at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology in 2014\, working on the Large Hadron Collider at the European particle physics laboratory (CERN). His thesis described the observation of Higgs boson decays to four leptons. Since 2014\, he has worked in Frederick Matsen’s lab at the Fred Hutchinson Cancer Research Center\, first as a postdoctoral researcher and more recently as a staff scientist\, writing new computational methods for the analysis of B cell receptor deep sequencing data.\n\nhttps://umich-health.zoom.us/j/93929606089?pwd=SHh6R1FOQm8xMThRemdxTEFMWWpVdz09 UID:82733-21169592@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/82733 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:20210322T090232 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20210324T160000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20210324T170000 SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Michael Beauregard Seminar in Macroeconomics: Consumer Bankruptcy as Aggregate Demand Management DESCRIPTION:Abstract: \nWe study the role of consumer default policy in macroeconomic stabilization. Our economy features nominal rigidities\, incomplete financial markets\, and heterogeneous households with access to unsecured defaultable debt. In addition to its traditional role of balancing the ex-ante cost of credit against the ex-post benefit to defaulters\, the optimal bankruptcy code features an aggregate demand management objective. Consumer bankruptcy acts as an automatic stabilizer whenever the average consumption effect of default\, or “ACED” (the causal effect of default on consumption\, normalized by the level of debt)\, is larger than the marginal propensity to consume of savers. When entering a recession\, the optimal policy is lenient on past debts\, but promises to be harsh on future debts to encourage credit supply. We study quantitatively the extent of business cycle amplification under consumer different bankruptcy codes\, and the effectiveness of bankruptcy rules that systematically respond to the business cycle.\n\n* To join the seminar\, please contact at econ.events@umich.edu UID:81279-20879919@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/81279 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Economics,seminar LOCATION:Off Campus Location CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20210317T161635 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20210324T160000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20210324T170000 SUMMARY:Livestream / Virtual:RAIDE SEMINAR: \"Risk Analysis and Management\, COVID\, and the Center for Risk Analysis Informed Decision Engineering\" — Jim Bagian and Seth Guikema DESCRIPTION:SPECIAL GUEST: Dean Alec Gallimore\n\nThe RAIDE seminar series is open to all.

Haidostian Annual Distinguished Lecture | Recovering an Art: David Ohannessian and the Armenian Ceramics of Jerusalem DESCRIPTION:Please register in advance for the webinar here: http://myumi.ch/AxDMx\n \n After registration\, you will receive a confirmation email with instructions on how to join the webinar.\n \n Along the cobbled streets and golden walls of Jerusalem\, brilliantly glazed tiles catch the light and beckon the eye. These colorful wares—known as Armenian ceramics—are iconic features of the Holy City. Silently\, these works of ceramic art—an art that graces homes and museums around the world—also represent a riveting story of resilience and survival. In 1919\, David Ohannessian founded the art of Armenian ceramics in Jerusalem\, where his work and that of his followers is now celebrated as a local treasure. Born in an isolated Anatolian mountain village\, Ohannessian mastered a centuries-old art form in Kütahya\, witnessed the rise of violent nationalism in the waning years of the Ottoman Empire\, endured arrest and deportation in the Armenian Genocide\, founded a new tradition in Jerusalem under the British Mandate\, and spent his final years\, uprooted once again\, in Cairo and Beirut. Ms. Moughalian will detail the lineage of her grandfather David Ohannessian’s ceramic tradition and document the critical roles his deportation and his own agency played in its transfer—aspects of the story obscured in the art historical narrative. She will speak about the process of coming to terms with her family’s past\, the ways in which that served as an impetus to excavate and reconstruct her grandfather’s history through archival research\, and the importance of preserving the stories of peoples displaced through migration.\n \n Sato Moughalian is the author of “Feast of Ashes: The Life and Art of David Ohannessian” (Redwood Press/ Stanford University Press\, 2019). She is also an award winning flutist in New York City and Artistic Director of Perspectives Ensemble\, founded in 1993 at Columbia University to explore and contextualize works of composers and visual artists. She serves as principal flutist of the American Modern Ensemble and Gotham Chamber Opera\; guest flutist with groups including Imani Winds\, American Ballet Theatre\, American Symphony Orchestras\, and the Orquestra Sinfonico do Estado São Paulo\, Brazil. She can be heard on more than thirty chamber music recordings for Sony Classics\, BIS\, Naxos\, as well as on YouTube\, Spotify\, and other major music platforms. Since 2007\, Ms. Moughalian has traveled to Turkey\, England\, Israel\, Palestine\, and France to uncover her grandfather’s traces\, has published articles\, and gives talks on the genesis of Jerusalem’s Armenian ceramic art.\n \nIf there is anything we can do to make this event accessible to you\, please contact us.
