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:82750-21171602@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:20210325T080000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20210325T220000 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.

They are one way these stories are increasingly being told\, explored\, and processed as part of paths toward healing for both the creator of the comic and the consumer of the comic. Comics and graphic memoirs offer special affordances as a method\, allowing the external and internal experiences to co-exist in the same narrative space. This presentation will share examples of what these processes might look like from the perspective of the individual as well as the therapist and touch on ways to use comics creation as part of personal storytelling\, when the individual is ready to do so.\n\nMarna M.

The advent of a vaccine presents the promise of a way out of this pandemic. However\, concerns over the safety of the vaccine in conjunction with the historical reservations of People of Color regarding medical research and treatment have made for a tepid response to the availability of the vaccine.

In particular\, following Alhaag’s invitation to think from Somalia\, she asks\, what is yielded when we think colonially bifurcated geographies together? When in Alhaag’s words we imagine and care for each other 'from different oceans and seas that wrap around the African continent'? A description to Alhaag’s related curatorial project will be available in a temporary Dropbox link (https://www.dropbox.com/sh/y2kqddexyrrlxw8/AAAokTzyfj_Lhlu16CO6SI29a?dl=0) .\n\nFollowing Alhaag’s call\, Benedicty-Kokken invites us to consider Igiaba Scego’s writing. Notably\, Benedicty-Kokken has chosen excerpts from two texts in which Scego deploys a Jewish-Muslim friendship: \n-the first\, Scego’s novel *Adua* originally published in Italian in 2015\, and translated from the Italian into English in 2017\, recounts the historical and geopolitical connections among Ethiopia\, the Horn of Africa\, and Italy through stories of four generations implicated in the region\; \n-the second\, the children’s book *Prestami le ali* [Lend Me Your Wings]\, illustrated by Fabio Visintin\, based imaginatively on a true story of a rhinoceros who/that a Dutch merchant brought for show in Venice in the 1750s: it tells the story of a Jewish girl and a Somali enslaved boy\, and their collective care for the rhinoceros\, and each other. The children’s story emerges from a project titled *Remapping the Ghetto* led by professor Shaul Bassi at Università Ca’ Foscari (including writers Scego herself\, Amitav Ghosh and Caryl Philipps)\, and was workshopped with students from the school Carlo Pisacane (Tor Pignattara\, Rome) with their teacher Vania Borsetti. \nFor more about Scego’s work see Benedicty-Kokken’s article\, Giulia Riccò’s interview with Scego\, and an interview with Scego about the children’s book. Excerpts of Scego’s novel are available through a temporary Dropbox link.\n\nAmal Alhaag is an Amsterdam-based independent curator\, dj and researcher who develops ongoing experimental and collaborative research practice\, public programs and projects on global spatial politics\, archives\, colonialism\, counter-culture\, oral histories and popular culture. Her projects and collaborations with people\, initiatives and institutions invite\, stage\, question and play with ‘uncomfortable’ issues that riddle\, rewrite\, remix\, share and compose narratives in impermanent settings. She is co-founder of several initiatives\, including Metro54\, a platform for experimental sonic\, dialogic and visual culture and the Side Room: a room for eccentric practices and people together with artist Maria Guggenbichler (2013-2016). Alhaag is currently part of the curatorial team of the quadrennial sonsbeek2020-2024 in Arnhem\, Netherlands\; senior research & public programmer at the Research Center for Material Culture\, Netherlands and curatorial and research fellow at Mathaf\, Arab Museum of Modern Art\, Doha\, Qatar.\n\nAlessandra Benedicty-Kokken is Research Coordinator and Senior Researcher at the Research Center for Material Culture at the Nationaal Museum van Wereldculturen in the Netherlands. Headed by Wayne Modest\, the role of the RCMC is to critically interrogate the historical legacies of ‘the ethnographic museum.’ She has a series of articles that interrogate what Sarah Phillips Casteel names “the rhetorical oppositionality of ‘Black’ and ‘Jew’”. Her books are: *Spirit Possession in French\, Haitian\, and Vodou Thought: An Intellectual History* (2015)\; the co-edited “Revisiting Marie Vieux Chauvet\,” a special issue of *Yale French Studies* (2016)\, and also co-edited *The Haiti Exception: Anthropology and the Predicament of Narrative* (2016).

In Switzerland\, the need to address this matter has been increasingly emphasized by different actors in the health system. In particular\, the lack of comprehensive coordination efforts in the field of health services research\, and subsequent knowledge translation activities\, has been stressed. In response\, the Swiss Learning Health System (SLHS) was established as a nationwide project in 2017\, currently involving 10 academic partner institutions. One of the overarching objectives of the SLHS is to bridge research\, policy\, and practice by providing an infrastructure that supports learning cycles by: continuously identifying issues relevant to the Swiss health system\, systemizing relevant evidence\, presenting potential courses of action\, and revising and reshaping responses. Key features of learning cycles in the SLHS include the development of policy/evidence briefs that serve as a basis for stakeholder dialogues with actors from research\, policy and practice. Issues that are identified to be further pursued are monitored for potential implementation and eventually evaluated to inform new learning cycles and to support continuous learning within the system.\n\nDr. Boes and Dr. Mantwill will provide an overview of the SLHS and its key features\, as well as its capacity building efforts to train young researchers in the field of learning health systems\, and the development of a centralized metadata repository in support of creating a sufficient large evidence basis to support learning cycles in the Swiss health system. Further\, they will discuss lessons learned from the past and the newest developments of the SLHS in light of a second funding phase supported by the Swiss government.

Fairfax Collegiate Professor of Public Policy\; University Diversity and Social Transformation Professor\; Professor of Sociology\, U-M\n- Gary W. Harper\, Professor of Health Behavior and Health Education\, and Global Public Health\, U-M\n- Jennifer Dominique Jones\, Assistant Professor of History & Women's and Gender Studies\, U-M\n\nIn the face of life-threatening news\, how does our view of life change—and what do we do it transform it? Remaking a Life uses the HIV/AIDS epidemic as a lens to understand how women generate radical improvements in their social well being in the face of social stigma and economic disadvantage. Drawing on interviews with nationally recognized AIDS activists as well as over one hundred Chicago-based women living with HIV/AIDS\, Celeste Watkins-Hayes takes readers on an uplifting journey through women’s transformative projects\, a multidimensional process in which women shift their approach to their physical\, social\, economic\, and political survival\, thereby changing their viewpoint of “dying from” AIDS to “living with” it. With an eye towards improving the lives of women\, Remaking a Life provides techniques to encourage private\, nonprofit\, and government agencies to successfully collaborate\, and shares policy ideas with the hope of alleviating the injuries of inequality faced by those living with HIV/AIDS every day.\n\nThis event is part of IRWG's Gender: New Works\, New Questions series\, which spotlights recent publications by U-M faculty members and allows for deeper discussion by an interdisciplinary panel.

In this talk\, I give a brief overview of the ongoing ecological genetics/genomics projects within the lab and focus on our attempts to understand how the mating system may evolve given regimes of strong human-mediated selection.

In one of the most dynamic wetland complexes in the world\, the Florida Everglades\, changes in freshwater supply and accelerated rates of SLR are changing historical landscape patterns\, including the carbon (C) cycle. The hydrology and disturbance regime in the Everglades region developed a rich diversity of communities. Productivity across the Everglades peaks near the coast (Mangroves Riverine Forests\; 1200 g C m-2 yr-1) where the supply of P from seawater is balanced by freshwater supplies. Further inland\, long- and short-hydroperiod freshwater ecosystems range from being a small sink to a small source of CO2 (-11– -110 g CO2 m-2 yr-1) annually. With the future of South Florida tied to the management of natural resources\, it is essential that we understand how shifts in climate\, land management and disturbance regimes influence the resilience of South Florida. \n\nDr. Malone’s primary research focus is to improve our understanding of how climate and disturbance regimes influence spatial and temporal variability in ecosystem structure and function. Using remote sensing\, eddy covariance\, and spatial and temporal models she explores questions related to ecosystem condition\, sustainability\, and vulnerability to climate extremes.\n\nPlease join us!

Grayson DESCRIPTION:Tissue engineering provides a viable means of regenerating bone and skeletal muscle tissues following injuries that lead to large volumetric defects. Our lab has developed advanced biomaterial and stem cell-based approaches to promote functional recovery following volumetric muscle loss and critical-sized craniofacial bone injuries. This presentation will focus on three areas of ongoing research: (1) I will present our lab’s efforts to regenerate vascularized and innervated skeletal muscle in mice including our recent studies using human pluripotent stem cells. (2) Recently\, our group completed a study focused on designing biomaterials to guide bone regeneration in situ in minipigs using intraoperative protocols for combining autologous stem cells with 3D-printed scaffolds. (3) Understanding the interaction between vascular cells and osteoprogenitors is critical for developing effective treatment methods. I will describe recent studies in which we developed a quantitative imaging platform for characterizing the spatial relationships between cell populations in the native murine calvarium. https://openbme.org/\n\nZOOM LINK TO REGISTER: https://cwru.zoom.us/webinar/register/WN_Kgyl3yf4TcKvlk9xNKluhA UID:81391-20889821@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/81391 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Basic Science,Biointerfaces,Biology,biomedical,biomedical engineering,Bioninterfaces,Biosciences,Biotechnology,bme,engineer,engineering,Life Science,Medicine,Michigan Engineering,Natural Sciences,Science LOCATION:Off Campus Location CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20210318T153358 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20210325T160000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20210325T173000 SUMMARY:Class / Instruction:Chair's Distinguished Lecture: Emerging InSAR Applications for Observing the Dynamics of Earth Systems DESCRIPTION:Ann Chen\nAssistant Professor\nDept. of Aerospace Engineering and Engineering Mechanics\nThe University of Texas at Austin\n\nOver the past 60 years\, advances in satellite remote sensing techniques have made it possible to observe the Earth with finer resolution and broader coverage than could ever be achieved before. In particular\, Earth-observing radar satellite missions have generated a large volume of Interferometric Synthetic Aperture Radar (InSAR) data since 1992 with 10s-100s of meters spatial resolution. Recently launched Sentinel-1 mission has provided global coverage and open data access on a 6-day repeat cycle (with a two-satellite constellation). The upcoming NASA-ISRO Synthetic Aperture Radar (NISAR) mission is scheduled to launch in 2023\, which will continue to provide high-quality radar data free of charge for scientific uses in the coming decades. In this talk\, we will discuss how to infer a broader range of properties of the earth’s surface and subsurface using InSAR. These newly available satellite observations have opened up new research opportunities in understanding the dynamics of earth systems.\n\nAbout the speaker...\n\nAnn Chen received a B.S. degree in geophysics from the University of Science and Technology of China in 2008\; an M.S. degree in electrical engineering in 2012 and a Ph.D. degree in geophysics in 2014 from Stanford University\, California. She has more than 10 years of experience in SAR/InSAR algorithm design for earth system science applications. In 2017\, she joined the Department of Aerospace Engineering and Engineering Mechanics at The University of Texas at Austin as an assistant professor. Since 2018\, she has also served as a faculty member (by courtesy) in the Department of Geological Sciences at UT Austin. She currently leads the Radar Interferometry Group housed in the Center for Space Research. Her group focuses on the development of new satellite\, and especially interferometric Synthetic Aperture Radar (InSAR) techniques\, for studying natural and induced seismicity\, groundwater resources\, natural disasters\, and permafrost hydrology and carbon storage.

Chanese’s research interests lie in chemical exposure in agriculture workers and cellular alteration.\n\n\"ASCERTAINING PESTICIDE EXPOSURE AND BIOACTIVITY USING OPEN SOURCE DATA: Pesticides are known to be harmful chemicals to human health\, however they are still heavily used in agriculture. Using 3 large publicly available datasets\, this study aims to 1) quantify pesticide exposure levels of the US general population in comparison to farmworkers\, and 2) assess biological activity of these pesticides using ToxCast high throughput screening toxicity data. The National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) is a cross-sectional study representative of the US population with oversampling weights for minoritized populations. NHANES was used to quantify pesticide exposure among US farmworkers and the general population who responded to NHANES between 1999 and 2016. Overall\, there are 65\,893 farmworkers in the NHANES dataset with at least one pesticide biomarker present in the laboratory\, and a total of 92\,140 people total in NHANES. Biomarker measurements were available for 28 different pesticides\, which also have been assessed for dose-dependent toxicity using high throughput assays in ToxCast. Of the 28 pesticides\, Mirex had the lowest average exposure concentration at 1.19×10-​ 11​mol/L among US farmworkers\, whereas p\,p’-DDE had the highest average exposure level at 5.4×10-​ 7​mol/L. In ToxCast\, the AC50 represents the concentration at 50% of the maximum biological activity. The average AC50 for p\,p’-DDE is 1.3mol/L suggesting that activation levels are considerably higher than that of the average farmworkers’ exposure levels. It compares and analyzes through regression\, the US pesticide exposure levels to the bioactivity of these same pesticides within the human body. By comparing population level data with toxicological assay data\, we hope to create a more overarching idea of how pesticides may be affecting the body and a human population level.\n\nHYEON JOO: Hyeon Joo is a second year PhD student in Health Infrastructures and Learning Systems. He completed his MS in Computer Science and Engineering\, and Master of Health Informatics from the University of Michigan\, Ann Arbor. His research focuses on developing and implementing computational data-driven algorithms\, systems or tools to help users identify gaps and make informed decisions. He loves working in the field of health care as a data scientist and a software engineer.\n\n\"EARLY PREDICTION OF HEART FAILURE USING ATTENTION MODELS USING EHR DATA\": Heart Failure (HF) is a severe and progressive chronic condition affecting over 5.8 million patients with a 5-year mortality rate of 45-60% in the United States. Despite significant efforts and advanced HF management\, diagnosing HF in the early stages remains challenging due to its syndromic nature and non-specific disease presentation. In this seminar\, I will present a single attention recurrent network and a hierarchical attention convolutional neural networks to detect the early stage of HF at a tertiary hospital. I will also describe various methods of feature selection to reduce the computation time and improve the performance of the models. Lastly\, I will present the challenges of adopting models in clinical practice which leads to my next research steps.\n\nRegister to receive Zoom login information: https://myumi.ch/BobQB UID:83008-21237275@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/83008 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Computational Modeling,Computational Science,Scientific Computing LOCATION:Off Campus Location CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20210409T123040 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20210325T160000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20210325T190000 SUMMARY:Careers / Jobs:Charles River Laboratories Virtual Career Fair - 3/25/21 DESCRIPTION:Who We Are\n\nCharles River Laboratories is an early-stage contract research organization (CRO) with a local touch.

The standard view is that these thoughts arise from \"automatic\" subpersonal processes\, and we are for the most part passive observers of them. Drawing on a series of laboratory studies we have conducted\, I argue this view is importantly incorrect. On the alternative view I put forward\, the stream of consciousness arises from “basic decisions”\, a ubiquitous and underappreciated feature of our mental life. Basic decisions lie in a grey zone: They are both manifestations of agency as well as obstacles to it.

Insights from Their Fingerprints DESCRIPTION:**Please note\, the date has changed**\n\nUnderstanding who ancient artisans were\, how they learned their craft\, and how artisanal labor was organized has long been of interest to both professional archaeologists and the wider public. A new tool called dermatoglyphics (fingerprint analysis) can be brought to bear on this question. Prints were accidentally embedded in ancient plaster\, lost-wax cast bronzes\, and most frequently\, ceramics before they were fired.\n\nCeramic sculptures of all sizes preserve the prints of those who made them. A combination of traditional and new dermatoglyphic techniques allows us to evaluate not only questions about which individuals made which objects\, but also to see firsthand evidence of apprenticeship. Prints from ceramic sculpture originating at sites in the Argolid and Corinthia allow us to begin to discuss these issues in more concrete terms than has previously been possible.\n\nYou are invited to a Zoom webinar.\nWhen: March 25\, 2021\, 05:30 PM Eastern Time (US and Canada)\nTopic: Ann Arbor AIA Society Lecture\n\nThis lecture is sponsored by the Archaeological Institute of America.\nTo learn more about the AIA\, please visit archaeological.org.

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:82750-21171603@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:20210326T080000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20210326T220000 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.

Agents may update their so-called strategic plan as the game progresses\, and\, at any point\, for the called-for action to be simply dominant\, it must lead to unambiguously better outcomes\, no matter what occurs at non-simple histories. We use our approach to simplicity to provide characterizations of simple mechanisms in general social choice environments both with and without trans- fers\, including canonical mechanisms such as ascending auctions\, posted prices\, and serial dictatorship-style mechanisms. As a final application\, we explain the widespread popularity of the well-known Random Priority mechanism by characterizing it as the unique mechanism that is efficient\, fair\, and simple to play.\n\nTo join the seminar\, please contact at econ.theory-requests@umich.edu UID:81734-20949388@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/81734 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Economics,seminar LOCATION:Off Campus Location CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20210309T130647 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20210326T090000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20210326T100000 SUMMARY:Conference / Symposium:Michigan India Conference DESCRIPTION:Have you heard the good news?

DESCRIPTION:Abstract:\nIn the last decade\, new technologies have led to a boom in real-time pricing. I analyze the most salient example\, surge pricing in ride hailing. Using data from Uber\, I develop an empirical model of spatial equilibrium to measure the welfare effects of surge pricing. The model is composed of demand\, supply\, and a matching technology. It allows for temporal and spatial heterogeneity as well as randomness in supply and demand. I find that\, relative to a counterfactual with uniform pricing\, surge pricing increases total welfare by 1.59% of gross revenue. Welfare effects differ substantially across sides of the market: rider surplus increases by 5.25% of gross revenue\, whereas driver surplus and plat- form profits decrease by 1.81% and 1.77% of gross revenue\, respectively. Riders at all income levels benefit\, while disparities in driver surplus are magnified.\n* To join the seminar\, please contact at econ.events@umich.edu UID:81744-20949400@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/81744 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Economics,seminar LOCATION:Off Campus Location CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20201118T170934 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20210326T100000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20210326T110000 SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Craft Lecture: The Art of Association DESCRIPTION:Login here (no pre-registration needed): https://tinyurl.com/ZellWriters\n\nUsing the assemblages of Joseph Cornell as visual analogs\, this talk/generative workshop will consider the ways in which sample poems seemingly shift from subject to subject while still maintaining a sense of coherence.\n\nKathleen Graber’s poetry collection\, *The River Twice* (Princeton University Press\, 2019)\, is an elegiac meditation on impermanence and change. She presents a fluid world in which so much―including space and time\, the subterranean realm of dreams\, and language itself―seems protean.\n\nGraber is also the author of two previous books of poetry\, *Correspondence* and *The Eternal City*\, which was a finalist for the National Book Award and the National Book Critics Circle Award. She is the recipient of fellowships from the National Endowment for the Arts\, the American Academy of Arts and Letters\, and the Guggenheim Foundation.

In the first part\, I will discuss the problem of label shift\, where the proportion among the labels can shift but the class conditional distributions do not change\, including connections to some practical problems and some theoretical results. Then I will discuss a new work in which we alter the distribution of training data in order to establish a generalization guarantee.\n\nThis seminar will be livestreamed via Zoom https://umich.zoom.us/j/94350208889.

These transitions can feature on one hand localized structural changes in base-pairs or can be presented by a change in chemical identity of e.g. a nucleo-base tautomer. We use and develop R1ρ-relaxation-dispersion NMR methods for characterizing transient structures of RNA that exist in low abundance (populations <10%) and that are sampled on timescales spanning three orders of magnitude (µs to s). \nThe characterization of three different types of transient structures is going to be presented. 1) The HIV-1 dimerization initiation site (DIS) undergoes large secondary structure rearrangements that provide the basis for a molecular zipper\, which can be crucial for genome packaging (Nature 2012). 2) The GU wobble base-pair undergoes a change from standard wobble GU geometry to appear like a Watson-Crick base-pair stabilized by Keto-Enol tautomerization (Nature 2015). 3) a microRNA – mRNA complex changes conformation to activate the RISC complex (Nature 2020). I will furthermore give an outlook on recent efforts to measure in-cell NMR of nucleic acids in functional complexes. www.petzoldlab.com UID:83217-21314485@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/83217 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Physics LOCATION:Off Campus Location CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20210303T084757 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20210326T120000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20210326T130000 SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:CWPS 20th // Alumni *in Conversation* DESCRIPTION:Free & Open to the public\nRegistration required: https://myumi.ch/lxAoG\n\nIn March 2001\, the University of Michigan Center for World Performance Studies celebrated its grand opening\, inviting the community to participate in an evening of lectures\, performances and food at the International Institute.

For many\, this was a first foray into working with participants remotely. Throughout the past year\, there have been articles\, webinars\, conference sessions\, and informal discussions centered on issues related to online research\, including how to streamline recruitment and data collection practices to mirror those used in lab settings. This presentation will provide an overview of helpful resources demonstrating best practices for online behavioral research (particularly with children) and highlight ways online studies can complement those conducted in more traditional lab settings. Discussion topics will include: 1) the trades offs made when moving research online\, 2) the extent to which online research can support multi-site recruitment and reproducible science efforts\, and 3) opportunities to evaluate the limits of what we can and cannot do via online (synchronous and asynchronous) research.

A hundred years ago a traditional apple orchard may have had one to two hundred free standing trees per acre\, while now planting over a thousand tree per acre trained to elaborate trellis systems is common practice. To maintain such high-density plantings\, a significant amount of labor is needed along with growth regulator treatments and\, in some cases\, specialized dwarfing rootstocks. Still\, not all fruit trees are easily amenable to growing in these systems. One of the focuses of my research program is to determine what controls fruit tree shoot architecture at the molecular and genetic level. The ultimate goal of this project is to identify methods that will reduce the labor required to manage high-density 2-dimensional plantings. In the process\, we are generating fundamental knowledge about how plants grow the way they do\, particularly in connection to the regulation of branch\, or lateral shoot\, angle. The main genes we are studying are TILLAR ANGLE CONTROL 1 (TAC1)\, LAZY1\, and WEEP\, which are present in vascular plants. TAC1 promotes the formation of wide branch angles\, while the related gene LAZY1 promotes narrow branch angles. WEEP on the other hand regulates branch tip orientations. Peach trees with a non-functional WEEP allele exhibit a weeping branch phenotype. Genetic studies have linked the roles of these three genes together\, and molecular and physiological studies suggest they have roles in regulating shoot growth in response to light and gravity. For this talk\, I will present current and developing knowledge about their molecular mechanisms in connection to the regulation of lateral shoot orientations in plants. \n\nHost: Cora MacAlister UID:82378-21086350@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/82378 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Basic Science,Biology,Biosciences,Bsbsigns,Natural Sciences,Science,symposium LOCATION:Off Campus Location CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20210106T113616 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20210326T120000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20210326T140000 SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:NSF CAREER Proposals Workshop - Sponsored by U-M LSA Advance DESCRIPTION:Please see the U-M Advance Program website for more details and registration: https://advance.umich.edu/event/nsf-career-proposals-workshop-3/.

Within such a framework\, particularly given the absence of written records and radiocarbon dating\, the diagnostic features of the late prehistoric pottery in this territory become a tool for building blocks of relative chronology. In this way\, such artifacts are valued primarily as markers for a given settlement’s strata and possible cultural links with other areas. However\, various anthropological studies show that pottery represents a multifaceted component of daily social practices. With this in mind\, the present study endeavors to challenge the dominant regional paradigm and to do so it adopts a methodology that goes beneath the surface of late prehistoric pottery. Petrography and paradigmatic classification have been used to examine the pottery excavated from three settlements and two tumuli in the Shkodër region to answer questions related to provenance\, production organization\, and possible exchange patterns.

Construction is yet to be considered a fully diverse\, equitable\, and inclusive industry sector (Sang and Powell 2012) due to pervasive structural prejudices and unconscious biases. The construction workforce is dominated by men\; in the US\, women make up only 1/10 of the overall construction workforce (CPWR 2018) even though 50.8% of the US population are females and 21.9% of civil engineering bachelor’s degrees in the US were earned by females over the last two decades (Hickey and Cui 2020). These statistics demonstrate the lack of gender equality within the construction industry (Navarro-Astor et al. 2017).\n\nFurthermore\, challenges related to masculinity\, ethnicity\, disability\, sexual orientation\, language\, age\, and other stereotypes have negatively impacted the experience of underrepresented groups working within the construction industry. With the high turnover rate and increased labor shortage across different work classifications\, construction organizations must overcome the aforementioned challenges and to achieve and sustain a safe\, productive\, and inclusive work environment. Inclusion is essential at work and results in everyone having the opportunity to fully apply themselves\, contribute to the success of the company\, and be valued for their specific skills\, experience\, and vision.\n\nDuring the presentation\, Dr. Simmons will discuss her funded interdisciplinary construction engineering and management research which centers people across three themes: DEI\, interactions between humans and technology\, and competency development via education and training. She will also describe her motivation for this work from her perspective as an African-American woman with decades of experience in the construction industry.\n\nDenise R. Simmons\, Ph.D.\, PE\, PMP\, LEED-AP is an Associate Professor in the Department of Civil and Coastal Engineering at the University of Florida. She has over ten years of construction and civil engineering experience working for energy companies and as a project management consultant\; nearly 15 years of experience in academia\; and extensive experience leading and conducting multi-institutional\, workforce-related research and outreach. She is a leader in research investigating professional formation of civil engineers\, with an increasing focus on project managers and the practical strategies that transform and sustain inclusive and productive organizations. While overseeing the Simmons Research Lab\, her current research focuses on three areas: diversity\, equity\, and inclusion (DEI)\; interactions between humans and technology\; and competency development via education and training.

However\, that physical specimen\nalso includes incidental collections of other material which can inform conclusions about the plant’s ecology and interactions. My research uses collections of sticky plants to study plant interactions by examining material that sticks to the plant during its lifetime\; I have found sand\, dead bugs\, bird feathers and ash on the surfaces of plant specimens. My recent work has demonstrated that certain substances–biological or not–stuck to plants mediate both simple and complex interactions with both arthropods and mammals\, resulting in major fitness implications for the plant. However\, the ubiquity of these interactions is unknown. My research links the ecological functioning of sticky plant interactions with the breadth and evolutionary history of stickiness. I will detail ecological interactions of stickiness\, broad patterns of stickiness across the plant phylogeny\, as well as in more detail across a single clade of plants endemic to western North America.\n\nLaurel Yohe\nNSF Postdoctoral Fellow\, Department of Geology and Geophysics\, Yale University\n\nTalk title: Morphological and developmental basis of olfactory evolution: evidence from museum-collected iodine-stained bat specimens and embryos\n\nAbstract\nThe sense of smell is essential for finding food in animals\, but whether olfaction has evolved in relation to diet is not understood. Animals that more heavily rely on smell should have increased olfactory tissue than those that rely on other senses\, yet this assumption is rarely tested. I investigated whether smell was associated with diet in a group of neotropical leaf-nosed bats known for their dietary diversity. Using iodine-stained museum specimens of both adult and embryo bats\, I quantified the olfactory epithelium of nasal turbinate bones in species with divergent diets. Embryo specimens were obtained from museum-deposited adult females unknown to be pregnant during accession\, providing a wealth of new specimens unbeknownst to science. I tested whether plant-visiting have more well-developed olfactory epithelium compared to animal-feeding bats. I discovered: [1] two of the five turbinate bones have increased epithelium in plant-visiting bats\; and [2] development of turbinates remains simple earlier in ontogeny\, but the two bones with increased epithelium develop at very late stages in plant-visiting bats. This discovery suggests olfactory adaptation in plant-visiting bats\, and the accompanying morphology occurs at late developmental stages\, supporting the notion that natural selection acts upon phenotypes appearing later in ontogeny.\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/\n\nIllustration: John Megahan.

Similarly\, it has been assumed that in a society with a relatively unified elite\, the elite will experience disproportionately high benefits relative to the larger population. I take issue with this claim. In the mid-twentieth century\, large American corporations exhibited a relatively high level of unity but the relative economic benefits accruing to the elite were at historic lows. In more recent years\, American big business has become increasingly fragmented\, yet the economic benefits that these elites have received have reached historic highs\, and the average American’s standard of living has stagnated. Drawing on Padgett and Ansell\, I introduce the concept of inadvertent robust action to explain how a relatively fragmented\, disorganized elite can reap benefits that exceed those that its more unified counterparts experienced in an earlier era.

However\, the neural\,\npsychological\, and computational mechanisms that connect prospective value with subsequent performance remain poorly understood. In this talk\, I will discuss three studies investigating the role of advanced planning in incentive-motivated action. In the first study\, we examine whether reward sharpens cortical representations of action during movement preparation. In the second study\, we investigate the possible optimal and sub-optimal strategies that guide people’s visuomotor decisions under risk. And in the third study\, we look at the impact of reward on the competition between habitual and goal-directed action. Results across these studies indicate that reward reduces noise in the preparation of goal-directed actions and that this may be a key mechanism underlying incentive-motivated performance.

Spiritual practice can contribute to healing justice in the following ways: 1) Help to cultivate balance and alleviate stress in one’s life\; 2) Learn how to de-identify with things that no longer serve us\; 3) Increase connection and 4) Increase personal and collective empowerment such that one can more effectively work with\, and on behalf of others to alleviate suffering and end oppression.\n\nU-M Counseling and Psychological Services will offer two workshops (“Healing Justice in the Fabric of Community” and “Healing Justice: Rediscovering Spirit” ) focused on components of Loretta Pyles’ (2018) Healing Justice: Self-Care for Change Makers. To be true to healing justice\, it’s vital to highlight its origins. The movement was originally created by queer folx\, BIPOC\, women and those with disabilities starting from the 60s with a resurgence in the late 2000s. U-M participants will learn ways of healing “a sense of brokenness or disconnection that may be a result of trauma\, oppressive socio-cultural narratives and practices or the ways in which humans may lose touch with each other and themselves.”\n\nAll students (undergraduate\, graduate and professional) are invited to attend this powerful session!\n\nRegister on Sessions: https://sessions.studentlife.umich.edu/track/event/session/40778 UID:82980-21233242@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/82980 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Discussion,Diversity Equity and Inclusion,Free,Graduate and Professional Students,Undergraduate Students,Virtual,Well-being,Workshop LOCATION:Off Campus Location CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20201210T181529 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20210326T140000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20210326T150000 SUMMARY:Livestream / Virtual:Rackham Resolution Office: Virtual Office Hours DESCRIPTION:If you have a quick question or have a time sensitive matter\, attend the Rackham’s Resolution Office’s open office hours weekly on Monday\, Wednesday\, and Friday from 2:00 to 3:00 p.m. via Zoom.

Rhyolite production at the OVC is a result of fractional crystallization of mantle-derived basalt that is heavily contaminated by crustal components. However\, questions remain over the extent of crustal contamination and how contributions from the mantle versus the crust have fluctuated over the lifespan of the OVC. In this study we aim to answer these questions using intra-crystal and single-crystal oxygen isotopic ratios (δ18O) of rhyolite-hosted quartz. We use δ18O ratios because (1) they are minimally impacted by fractional crystallization\, (2) at the OVC\, they allow for better differentiation among possible contributing sources (i.e.\, mantle\, crust\, hydrothermally altered shallow crust) than radiogenic isotopes alone\, and (3) even minor fluctuations in δ18O ratios indicate significant changes in the mass of contributing sources. Results reveal homogenous δ18O ratios that indicate consistent mass contributions from mantle and crustal sources\, with significant assimilation (≥20 %) of surrounding metasedimentary crust\, across the 0.6 Ma lifespan of the OVC magmatic system. These findings differ from δ18O ratios observed in silicic systems that are situated in hot spot or subduction settings\, which exhibit large (>1.0 ‰) fluctuations in quartz δ18O ratios. However\, these findings resemble δ18O ratio fluctuations (or lack thereof) observed in silicic systems that are situated in extensional settings\, indicating that extension is largely responsible for magma flux and processes occurring at the OVC.

Through the activities of their Corporate Social Responsibility units\, firms become embedded in the countryside through what I call “company villages.” These are inversions of the “company town” of the past\, which emerged in the 20th century as companies were forced by labor mobilization to enact programs for social welfare\, redistribution\, and development—what we might consider corporate social ethics—within the body of the firm itself. In a sector that is now heavily mechanized and capital-intensive\, firms attempt to demonstrate their social ethics on sites and on behalf of communities that are exterior to and on the periphery of their plants and mines. In place of the labor-capital dynamics that produced hard-won welfare for workers in yesterday’s company towns\, today’s extractive economies are marked by these company villages\, as firms build and operate rehabilitation settlements\, hospitals\, schools\, and cottage industries\, extending the spatial reach of their presence far beyond the perimeters of mine pitheads and industrial plants. This talk will illustrate the dynamics of the “company village” by drawing on fieldwork at several locations in Odisha\, India.\n\nSunila S. Kale is Associate Professor in the Jackson School of International Studies at the University of Washington\, where she also serves as Chair and Director of South Asia Studies. Her research and teaching focus on Indian and South Asian politics\, energy studies\, the political economy of development\, and the history of capitalism. Her books include *Electrifying India* (Stanford 2014) and *Mapping Power* (OUP 2018).

Rist’s career rise coincided with the vast technical advancements seen over the past four decades\, a reality that Rist has responded to through playful exploration of new possibilities. Through large video projections and digital manipulation\, she has developed immersive\, color vivid installations. With her curious and lavish recordings of nature and her investigative editing\, Rist seeks to justify the privileged position we are born with in nature\, simply by being human. Her installations and exhibition concepts are expansive\, finding within the mind\, senses\, and body the possibility for endless discovery and poetical invention. For Rist\, showing vulnerability is a sign of strength on which she draws for inspiration. As she herself puts it\, “beside the energy-intensive exploration of the geographical world\, pictures\, films\, and sounds have been and are the spaces into which we can escape… The projector is the flamethrower\, the space is the vortex and you are the pearl within.”\n\nRist has had countless solo and group exhibitions\, and video screenings worldwide. Her recent solo exhibitions Come On Honey… at Kunsthalle Krems (2015)\; Your Saliva is My Diving Suit of the Ocean of Pain at Kunsthaus Zürich (2016)\; Pixel Forest at New Museum New York (2016 – 2017) and ‘Sip My Ocean’ at the Museum of Contemporary Art Sydney (2017-2018) all resulted in record-breaking attendance numbers for each institution. Pipilotti Rist: Big Heartedness\, Be My Neighbor  is the first West Coast survey of the internationally renowned Swiss media artist\, on view during winter 2021 at LAMOCA.\n\nIn partnership with the Ann Arbor Film Festival. Our 2020-2021 Series is brought to you with the support of our streaming partners\, Detroit Public Television and PBS Books.\n\nHow to WatchAll events will be webcast on Fridays at 8pm (ET) at http://pennystampsevents.org and https://dptv.org/pennystamps.

For instructions\, please email cmenas@umich.edu with the subject “Request to watch ‘Stray'”\n \nAbout the film:\nThrough the eyes of three stray dogs wandering the streets of Istanbul\, STRAY explores what it means to live as a being without status or security. As they search for food and shelter\, Zeytin\, Nazar and Kartal embark on inconspicuous journeys through Turkish society that allow us an unvarnished portrait of human life — and their own canine culture.\n \nZeytin\, fiercely independent\, embarks on solitary adventures through the city at night\; Nazar\, nurturing and protective\, easily befriends the humans around her\; while Kartal\, a shy puppy living on the outskirts of a construction site\, finds refuge with the security guards who care for her. The disparate lives of Zeytin\, Nazar and Kartal intersect when they each form intimate bonds with a group of young Syrians who share the streets with them.\n \nWhether they lead us into bustling streets or decrepit ruins\, the gaze of these strays act as windows into the overlooked corners of society: women in loveless marriages\, protesters without arms\, refugees without sanctuary. The film is a critical observation of human civilization through the unfamiliar gaze of dogs and a sensory voyage into new ways of seeing.\n\nCo-sponsor: Michigan Theatre UID:82750-21171604@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:20210327T080000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20210327T220000 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:82750-21171605@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:20210328T080000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20210328T220000 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.

At the most basic level\, it is how we take care of ourselves. The food we eat\, the exercise we do to stay healthy\, and the medicine we take when we get sick. However\, self-care is more than that. It includes all the things we do to stay happy and healthy. That could be taking a walk or a run outside\, or doing some arts and crafts. Maybe it’s playing a favorite sport with friends\, or trying a new recipe. \n\nDuring this virtual Family Week\, we’ll learn about how people in the ancient Mediterranean practiced self-care. We’ll even try out some of their techniques for ourselves.\n\nWe kick off the week with an introductory tour about ancient self-care. Be sure to join us on Sunday\, March 28\, at 2 PM. We will take a closer look at some objects in the Kelsey collection related to health and wellness. Join us on Zoom: https://umich.zoom.us/j/96083862910.

Gothic Art\, Realism and Genre: Thoughts on Eric Auerbach DESCRIPTION:This Zoom session of the Premodern Colloquium will run at 2:00PM to accommodate time differences.\n\nThis paper poses questions about the hierarchies and genres implicit or explicit in present day writing about Gothic art and architecture. A useful starting point is Eric Auerbach's work on mimesis and realism. Auerbach's brilliant literary insights into sermo humilis and the Judeo-Christian rejection of the ancient orders and hierarchies of rhetoric raise important objections. The first is that complex works of literature and art can seldom be pinned down just to one rhetorical mode or level of style. Rhetoric was not a single philosophy or body of knowledge to be adopted or repudiated\, but a set of practices that varied ad usum\, according to need and occasion.\n\nHere I propose that the medieval Christian dispensation adhered to all the genera dicendi and rhetorical modes\, and this opinion is tested with particular regard to epideictic or 'display' rhetoric and its relationship to 'realism'. It was Roland Barthes who noted that the 'reality effect' stemmed in part from epideisis or 'beautiful description'. This seems to offer an alternative route to realism (in so far as we can think causally about this matter) to the frank low speech often identified as sermo humilis. Praise and great speech are also discussed here with a view to understanding the ways that\, morally and metaphysically\, the canonical monuments of realism in Gothic Europe aimed not to diminish their subjects through naked displays of power\, but to involve them in a rhetorical discourse of magnification whose aims were fundamentally political and social. \n\nFinally\, how can we recapture the great speech of medieval art without taking recourse to post-medieval notions of the Sublime? And to what extent can such great speech be theorized historically?

Until 2011\, Myanmar had spent over 40 years under military rule\, bringing the country into deep poverty and isolating it from the rest of the world. Despite a transition to democracy in the early 2010s\, the political climate has remained unstable.\n\nThe situation has escalated since the coup\, with the Myanmar military and police attempting to take control through inhumane violence. However\, despite the risks\, people of all ethnicities\, ages and professions are marching in protest against the coup. Many essential workers\, including truck drivers and train station workers\, have also gone on strike to protest.\n\n\nIn this talk\, we will discuss Myanmar’s political history\, its historical heritage\, and specific events that have happened since the start of the coup. In addition\, we will discuss ways in which we - and you - can help the peaceful protesters in Myanmar.\n\nThe speaker’s bios\, as well as links to fundraising efforts to help the protesters in Myanmar\, are included in this flyer.

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:82750-21171606@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:20210329T080000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20210329T220000 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.

At the most basic level\, it is how we take care of ourselves. The food we eat\, the exercise we do to stay healthy\, and the medicine we take when we get sick. However\, self-care is more than that. It includes all the things we do to stay happy and healthy. That could be taking a walk or a run outside\, or doing some arts and crafts. Maybe it’s playing a favorite sport with friends\, or trying a new recipe. \n\nDuring this virtual Family Week\, we’ll learn about how people in the ancient Mediterranean practiced self-care. We’ll even try out some of their techniques for ourselves.\n\nWe kick off the week with an introductory tour about ancient self-care. Be sure to join us on Sunday\, March 28\, at 2 PM. We will take a closer look at some objects in the Kelsey collection related to health and wellness. Join us on Zoom: https://umich.zoom.us/j/96083862910.

Our data showed a clear order of grammatical marking acquisition among these children and supported findings on the linguistic-specificity of morphological development such that early-and late-acquired markers in English are not acquired in that same order in Mandarin. Negative mei2\, bu4\, Posessive -de\, Classifiers\, and the Aspect marker- le were the earliest acquired markers\, followed by Modal\, Negative bie2\, Adverb\, Sentence Final Particles\, Resultative Verb Compound\, and Aspect markers guo4 and yao4. Complex Clauses and the Aspect marker zheng4 were acquired the latest. Furthermore\, consistent with previous cross-linguistic studies\, the development patterns of a wide range of Mandarin grammatical markers indicate that markers that are more perceptually salient\, obligatory\, have clear form-meaning mappings and often appear in isolation or utterance-final position ware acquired earlier than others. \n\nChi-Lin\n\nTitle: \nTheory-of-Mind Development in Young Deaf Children With Early Hearing Provisions\n\nAbstract:\nDeaf and hard-of-hearing (DHH) children born to hearing parents have\nprofound theory-of-mind (ToM) delays\, yet little is known about how providing hearing assistance early in life\, through cochlear implants and hearing aids\, influences their ToM development. We thus addressed (a) whether young DHH children with early hearing provision developed ToM differently than older children did in previous research and (b) what ToM understandings characterize this understudied population. Findings from 84 three- to six-year-old DHH\nchildren primarily acquiring spoken language demonstrated that accumulated hearing experience influenced their ToM\, as measured by a five- step ToM scale. Moreover\, language abilities mediated this developmental relationship: Children with more advanced language abilities\, because of more time using cochlear implants and hearing aids\, had better ToM growth. These findings demonstrate the crucial relationships among hearing\, language\, and ToM for DHH children\nacquiring spoken language\, thereby addressing theoretical and practical questions about ToM development.

Since then\, LIGO and Virgo have observed dozens of gravitational waves merging black holes and neutron stars\; accurate models of these waves are crucial for learning as much as possible about the waves’ astronomical sources. Models of binary black holes require numerical relativity\, because all analytic approximations fail near the time of merger. While these models are sufficiently accurate for today’s observatories\, avoiding bias in interpreting the waves observed by next-generation observatories on Earth and in space will require next-generation numerical relativity models. In this talk\, I will present some recent results in modeling observations of binary black holes withnumerical relativity\, and I will discuss progress toward simulating merging black holes with SpECTRE\, a next-generation numerical relativity code under development by the Simulating eXtreme Spacetimes collaboration.\n UID:82106-21036679@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/82106 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Physics,Science LOCATION:Off Campus Location CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20210322T105559 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20210329T160000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20210329T170000 SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Letters to a Young Brown Girl Poetry Reading & Book Discussion DESCRIPTION:Barbara Jane Reyes is the author of Letters to a Young Brown Girl (BOA Editions\, Ltd.\, 2020).

Early Islamic World 2: Family Archives and Female Spaces of Intimacy DESCRIPTION:Family Archives and Female Spaces of Intimacy in Early Modern Isfahan\n\nIn seventeenth-century Isfahan\, the authorship of anthologies was a male prerogative. This talk wonders about women who have been excluded from the act of writing their own anthology to consider gendered literacy and female friendship through an anthology collected in the library of the Urdubadi family of bureaucrats and poets. The decisive role of a female family member\, the Urdubadi widow\, whose pilgrimage to Mecca is recorded in this anthology\, divulges her love for a female companion who was forced to leave Isfahan due to rumors circulating about their friendship. How are we to interpret this inclusion? Reading this family history as an archive\, we will see how anthologies document social and affective bonds with kin and with friends\, acts that make the city legible for us and for themselves.

The discipline of metrology\, or measurement science\, describes a measurement result as a value and the uncertainty around that value. We propose a systematic process for considering the sources of uncertainty in a scientific study that can be applied to virtually all\n\ndisciplines of scientific research. We suggest that a research study can be characterized by how sources of uncertainty in the study are reported and mitigated. This approach provides a path for sharing experimental data on complex systems such as biological network processes. A serious challenge for such studies involves collecting experimental metadata and protocol details.\n\nBio:\n\nDr. Plant is currently a NIST Fellow\, focusing on cell imaging and theoretical frameworks for understanding complex biological response in cells.

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:82750-21171607@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:20210330T080000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20210330T220000 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.

At the most basic level\, it is how we take care of ourselves. The food we eat\, the exercise we do to stay healthy\, and the medicine we take when we get sick. However\, self-care is more than that. It includes all the things we do to stay happy and healthy. That could be taking a walk or a run outside\, or doing some arts and crafts. Maybe it’s playing a favorite sport with friends\, or trying a new recipe. \n\nDuring this virtual Family Week\, we’ll learn about how people in the ancient Mediterranean practiced self-care. We’ll even try out some of their techniques for ourselves.\n\nWe kick off the week with an introductory tour about ancient self-care. Be sure to join us on Sunday\, March 28\, at 2 PM.

Contesting the presumption that a smoothly-communicated physical and spiritual liberation defined the program\, Professor Miao argues that recurrent reciprocal misunderstandings deeply marked the exchange\, because of the American teachers’ and Chinese students’ profoundly different conceptions of kinesthesia\, pedagogical approach\, and freedom. These missteps generated new methods of dance modernization and significantly shifted the history of Chinese modern dance.\n \n Fangfei Miao\, dance scholar\, choreographer\, and dancer\, is Assistant Professor in the Department of Dance at the University of Michigan. She received her PhD from UCLA and MFA from the Beijing Dance Academy. Dr. Miao is working on her book manuscript that investigates the productivity of embodied cross-cultural missteps in transforming dance history in China’s Reform Era. Her publications\, in both English and Chinese\, have featured in Dance Research Journal\, Asian Theater Journal\, Journal of Contemporary Research in Dance\, and Journal of the Beijing Dance Academy. With extensive professional training in both western and Chinese dances\, she has toured internationally and staged her choreography in New York City\, Los Angeles\, Auckland\, and Beijing\, among others.\n \nIf there is anything we can do to make this event accessible to you\, please contact us.

In dissonance to mainstream social constructs\, they make people uncomfortable and help them project their fears and anxieties. My work seeks to understand the permanence and fluidity of monstrosity in its physical and psychological perceptions and representations in early medieval literature\, taking as samples Beowulf\, the Wonders of the East\, and the Aberdeen Bestiary. \n\nI argue that while monstrosity is inherent to the monstrous individual\, it might have been perceived as permanent but also as changing. For instance\, dragons\, whose monstrosity is embedded in their physicality and inextricable from it\, bear their monstrosity permanently\; however\, Beowulf\, the hero\, bears a fluid monstrosity since he displays chivalrous traits when not in combat while assuming a monstrous nature when acquiring colossal – non-human – strength to overpower Grendel. Through this fluctuation\, I try to understand the relationship between humans and monsters\, and also the capacity of humans to harbor monstrosity.

Hence\, at the forefront of condensed matter research is the goal of understanding and controlling their emergent behavior at the smallest length and time scales possible. Due to the strongly intertwined nature of electrons and the crystal lattice in these materials\, manipulating the atomic structure allows one to tune interactions and create novel electronic and magnetic phases.\n\nIn this talk\, I will describe how light can be used to engineer structural distortions in quantum materials on ultrafast time scales\, providing a powerful pathway to realize non-equilibrium states of matter\, often with functionalities not accessible statically. First\, I will illustrate the application of this approach\, based on the resonant excitation of optical phonons and terahertz frequencies\, to the antiferromagnet CoF2. By exploiting lattice anharmonicities\, a transition to a ferrimagnetic phase could be driven with light\, whose magnetization is 100-fold larger than the equilibrium limit. Second\, I will demonstrate that the coupling of optically driven phonons to long-wavelength strain leads to a metastable ferroelectricity in the quantum paraelectric SrTiO3\, with the symmetry-broken state remaining for up to hours after excitation. These experiments provide a basis for the rational design of non-equilibrium functionalities\; integrated with targeted materials synthesis\, such control promises to unlock new physical phenomena and enable next-generation quantum and ultrafast technologies.\n\n \n UID:83078-21266960@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/83078 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Physics,Science LOCATION:Off Campus Location CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20210311T113607 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20210330T160000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20210330T173000 SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Functional MRI 2020-21 Symposium Speaker - Alexander Weigard\, Ph.D. DESCRIPTION:Abstract: The Group Iterative Multiple Model Estimation (GIMME) framework has emerged as a promising method for characterizing connections between brain regions in functional neuroimaging data. Two of the most appealing features of this framework are its ability to estimate the directionality of connections between network nodes and its ability to determine whether those connections apply to everyone in a sample (group-level) or just to one person (individual-level). However\, there are outstanding questions about the validity and stability of these estimates\, including: 1) how recovery of connection directionality is affected by features of data sets such as scan length and autoregressive effects\, which may be strong in some imaging modalities (resting state fMRI\, fNIRS) but weaker in others (task fMRI)\; and 2) whether inferences about directionality at the group and individual levels are stable across time. This talk will provide an overview of the GIMME framework and describe relevant results from a largescale simulation study that assesses directionality recovery under various conditions and a separate project that investigates the temporal stability of GIMME’s inferences in the Human Connectome Project data set. Analyses from these projects demonstrate that estimates of directionality are most precise when autoregressive and cross-lagged relations in the data are relatively strong\, and that inferences about the directionality of group-level connections\, specifically\, appear to be stable across time. Implications of these findings for the interpretation of directional connectivity estimates in different types of neuroimaging data will be discussed.\n\nRegister in advance for this meeting:\n https://umich.zoom.us/meeting/register/tJwoceGtrz8pHtK1iOVRbvfJz6vx2rMaa-gU UID:82938-21225235@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/82938 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Biosciences,Brain,Cognitive Neuroscience,Imaging,Neuroimaging,Neuropsychology,Neuroscience,Psychology LOCATION:Off Campus Location CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20210414T183031 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20210330T160000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20210330T163000 SUMMARY:Careers / Jobs:Google Presents: Cloud Panel \"Voices of Cloud\" DESCRIPTION:Cloud Panel \"Voices of Cloud\"\nMarch 30th @ 4:00PM PT / 6:00PMCT / 7:00PM ET\n\nInterested in learning more about Google Cloud?

Towards this end\, my group is focused on developing efficient catalysts that convert CO2 to CO\, methanol or formic acid\,. My talk will first describe our mechanistic studies on known CO2 hydrogenation catalysts\, whereby mechanistic insight is gleaned through thermochemical studies\, and allows for tuning the product selectivity. We also have uncovered a unique mechanism for CO2 hydrogenation\, whereby CO2 must first bind to the ligand before subsequent reduction occurs. I will then discuss how we have used the same thermochemical approach to study the mechanism of electrocatalytic CO2 reduction in a combined carbon capture & reduction system. Finally\, I will present a novel ligand scaffold that\, when put on Co\, allows for both the hydrogenation of CO2 to formate and the electrochemical reduction of CO2 to formate\; this is unique in that no H2 is produced electrocatalytically. The collective work underscores the importance of the effective hydricity as a parameter of interest and in using thermochemical parameters to rationalize and uncover alternative mechanisms. The studies presented are contextualized in developing an understanding of how to rationally design energy-efficient CO2 reduction catalysts.\nCaroline Saouma (University of Utah) UID:76344-19705211@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/76344 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Biosciences,Chemistry,Science LOCATION:Off Campus Location CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20210414T123042 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20210330T160000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20210330T173000 SUMMARY:Careers / Jobs:Virtual Information Session about Revenue Agent and Revenue Agent Pathways DESCRIPTION:We are hosting a series of virtual information sessions on ourRevenue Agent and Revenue Agent Pathway positions with the IRS' Small Business and Self-Employed Division.\n\nSpeak to Revenue Agents that are working in these positions and gain a better understanding of the work\, the day-to-day\, and what brought them to the IRS.

Varieties of Populists: Paths to Power and Implications for Regime Stability DESCRIPTION:Scholars have spent more time arguing over definitions of populism than attempting to clearly identify and differentiate among populists. Jones and Menon develop a typology to identify types of populists based on two key dimensions: 1) their position within the political landscape\; and 2) the degree of their ideological commitment to populism. They argue that these distinctions are key to our understanding of how populists gain power and their impact on regime stability and change.\n \nPauline Jones is professor of political science and director of the Digital Islamic Studies Curriculum at the University of Michigan (U-M). Previously\, she served as director of U-M’s Islamic Studies Program (2011-14) and of the International Institute (2014-20). Her work has contributed broadly to the study of institutional origin\, change\, and impact with an empirical focus on the former Soviet Union—primarily the five Central Asia states of Kazakhstan\, Kyrgyzstan\, Tajikistan\, Turkmenistan\, and Uzbekistan. Currently\, she is exploring the influence of religion on political attitudes and behavior in Muslim majority states with an emphasis on the relationship between religious regulation\, religiosity\, and political mobilization.\n \nAnil Menon is a political science PhD candidate and Gerald R. Ford Predoctoral Fellow at U-M. His dissertation explores the long-term political legacy of trauma across three different contexts: China\, Germany\, and Northern Ireland.\n \nRegistration is required for this Zoom webinar at https://myumi.ch/QArDq.\n\nIf there is anything we can do to make this event accessible to you\, please contact us at weisercenter@umich.edu.

In times of isolation and disconnect from community\, transgender and nonbinary individuals can lose sight of self-love and body positivity.\n\nIn Part 1\, we will explore the topic of body positivity through the lens of the wellbeing model. The workshop will focus on collectively building a more trans-inclusive idea of body positivity based on our experiences and identities. By incorporating other transgender and non-binary voices in the workshop\, the space will also explore what self-love looks like and how you can build a body-positive self-image.\n\nIn Part 2\, we will continue diving into how to cultivate a body-positive self-image. Through personal reflection and group conversations\, we will explore our own body origin stories and how body policing manifests within transgender and non-binary communities. With a focus on narratives and experiences\, the workshop will provide participants with strategies to reframe and cultivate body positivity for ourselves\, our relationships and our communities.\n\nAttendance for Part 1 isn't required for Part 2\, nor is it a commitment to attend Part 2.

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:82750-21171608@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:20210331T080000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20210331T220000 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.

At the most basic level\, it is how we take care of ourselves. The food we eat\, the exercise we do to stay healthy\, and the medicine we take when we get sick. However\, self-care is more than that. It includes all the things we do to stay happy and healthy. That could be taking a walk or a run outside\, or doing some arts and crafts. Maybe it’s playing a favorite sport with friends\, or trying a new recipe. \n\nDuring this virtual Family Week\, we’ll learn about how people in the ancient Mediterranean practiced self-care. We’ll even try out some of their techniques for ourselves.\n\nWe kick off the week with an introductory tour about ancient self-care. Be sure to join us on Sunday\, March 28\, at 2 PM. We will take a closer look at some objects in the Kelsey collection related to health and wellness. Join us on Zoom: https://umich.zoom.us/j/96083862910.

Literature in Albania from Communism to the Present DESCRIPTION:Under the communist regime (1944-91)\, Albanian literature followed two separate and antithetical paths: on the one hand\, writers turned to socialist realism for official literature that supported the state’s propaganda\, while on the other authors writing in prisons or labor camps joined an underground literature of opposition to Enver Hoxha’s regime. Subject to harsh censorship and persecution\, some oppositional writers managed to escape Albanian Communism\, going into exile to publish books critical of the regime. Those who remained in Albania were silenced until the collapse of the regime. \n\nComing from three different generations\, the authors on this panel share their experiences of the totalitarian regime and its aftermath\, and reflect on the role of literature in Albanian society: how does literature represent and transfigure experiences of violence and oppression? What is the place of exile in national literature? What is the role of literature in the memory culture of a post-communist society? What\, indeed\, is the status of literature in contemporary Albania?\n \nLisandri Kola is an author\, scholar\, and translator. He taught Albanian Literature of Exile at the University of Michigan (Department of Slavic Languages and Literatures)\, and Albanian Modern Literature\, History of Albanian Sonnet\, Translation Studies\, and Comparative Literature at the University of Tirana. Kola is the author of many books\, among them *A Poem of Love* (Albanian-English-Serbian)\, *Flutrat vdesin në maj/Butterflies Die in May*\, *Sonete/Sonnets*\, and *Saga e nji dite/Saga of a Day\,* among many others. He has translated into Albanian language\, Longinus\, Alda Merini\, Fernando Pessoa\, Luigi Pirandello\, Saint Anthony of Padua\, and has in progress Rime of Guido Cavalcanti. Selected poetry and prose of L. Kola are translated into Montenegrin\, English\, German\, and French languages. He was awarded the Albanian National Prize Át Zef Pllumi in poetry (2014). Lisandri Kola obtained a Ph.D. from the University of Tirana in 2014. See his poetry at http://www.kens.al/revista/kolonakens/a_poem_of_love.pdf\n \nLuljeta Lleshanaku is an Albanian poet. She studied Albanian philology & literature at the University of Tirana\, and later she graduated with a MFA from Warren Wilson College\, USA. She attended The International Writing Program at the University of Iowa in 1999 and was awarded a writer’s fellowship from the Black Mountain Institute at the University of Nevada\, Las Vegas (2008-09). She is the author of nine poetry collections in her language and fourteen other collections published in translation in other languages. Five of her books in translation are published in English. Her last poetry collection in English is *Negative Space*\, published by New Directions in the USA and by Bloodaxe Books in the UK\, was a winner of the English PEN award\, a finalist for the GRIFFIN International Poetry Prize 2019 in Canada\, and a finalist for PEN America 2019. She has worked as journalist\, TV author\, university lecturer\, and a historical researcher. See her poetry at https://www.poetryfoundation.org/poets/luljeta-lleshanaku\n \nPrimo Shllaku was born in Shkodra\, a town in the north of Albania of great cultural primacy\, which lasted until the time the communist regime was set up. His father was a theater director and uncle a prominent translator of ancient Greek and Latin. Shllaku studied Albanian language and literature at the State University of Tirana. For several years he taught in different schools and different levels of school in Tirana as well as in different villages. Beginning in the late 1980s he taught at the University of Shkodra. Later he taught Albanian and French in Greece as well as Albanian at the University of Belgrade. In 2010 he received a doctorate in literary sciences\, after which he has been teaching a History of Esthetical Doctrines at the University of Fine Arts in Tirana.

He subsequently performed in independent films and on stage at Brown University where he received a 2016 liberal arts degree in international politics\, media\, and cultural studies. He also trained in China in techniques of Chinese opera and Japanese performance. Throughout this time\, Vang engaged in social justice and media activism\, and published works related to the visibility and inclusion of Southeast Asian Americans and\, more broadly\, Asian Americans in Hollywood and mainstream popular culture. His work covered such topics as representation\, race\, gender\, sexuality\, production\, geopolitics\, refugees\, criminal justice\, mass incarceration. Vang presented at multiple conferences related to these topics\, and publicly lectured or gave workshops in over thirty venues\, domestically and overseas including the University of Toronto\, Beijing University\, Minzu University\, and Zhongshan University. \n\nMeanwhile\, Vang worked at MSNBC with The Rachel Maddow Show in broadcast journalism\, at The Economist in print journalism\, and at First Look Media in documentary filmmaking with Laura Poitras. After several years working as a print journalist\, nonfiction writer\, and policy researcher\, he recently moved to LA to devote himself to acting\, filmmaking\, and other creative pursuits.

The material properties of translucent objects challenge many of our assumptions in robotic perception. For example\, the most common RGB-D sensors in robotic applications require the sensing of an infrared structured pattern from a Lambertian reflectance of surfaces. As such\, transparent and translucent objects often remain invisible to robot perception. Thus\, introducing methods that would enable robots to correctly perceive and then interact with the environment would be highly beneficial. Light-field (or plenoptic) cameras\, for instance\, which carry light direction and intensity\, make it possible to perceive visual clues on object surfaces from reflection and refraction. In this dissertation\, we explore the inference of transparent and translucent objects from plenoptic observations for robotic perception and manipulation. We propose a novel plenoptic descriptor\, Depth Likelihood Volume (DLV)\, that incorporates multi-view plenoptic observations to represent depth. The depth of a pixel is then represented as a distribution rather than a single value. Through the DLV distribution\, we can infer the layered translucency structure of the scene with transparent and translucent objects for robot manipulation tasks. Building on the DLV\, we present the Plenoptic Monte Carlo Localization algorithm\, PMCL\, as a generative method to infer 6-DoF poses of objects in settings with translucency. PMCL is able to localize both isolated transparent objects and opaque objects behind translucent objects using a previously computed DLV. We evaluate PMCL by comparing x estimated poses against ground-truth poses and demonstrate the use of these pose estimates for object pick and place tasks. The uncertainty induced by transparency and translucency for pose estimation increases greatly as scenes become more cluttered. However\, robot grasping does not necessarily require estimation of 6-DoF object poses. Given multi-view plenoptic observations\, we propose GlassLoc to localize feasible grasp poses over a pile of transparent objects. In GlassLoc\, a convolutional neural network is introduced to learn DLV features for classifying grasp poses with grasping confidence. GlassLoc also suppresses the reflectance by checking pixel consistency over multi-view plenoptic observations\, which leads to more stable DLV representation. We evaluate GlassLoc in the context of a pick-and-place task for transparent tableware in a cluttered tabletop environment. We further observe that the transparent and translucent objects will generate distinguishable features in the light-field epipolar image plane\, which provides information about the object location. With this insight\, we propose Light-field Inference of Transparency\, LIT\, as a two-stage generative-discriminative refractive object localization approach. In the discriminative stage\, LIT uses convolutional neural networks to learn reflection and distortion features from photorealistic-rendered light-field images. The learned features guide generative object location inference through local depth estimation and particle optimization. With the LIT pipeline\, we also create the light-field dataset for the task of transparent objects recognition\, segmentation\, and pose estimation. We compare LIT with three state-of-the-art pose estimators to show our efficacy in the transparent object localization task. We also perform a robot demonstration by picking champagne cups up from a textureless table and building a champagne tower using the LIT pipeline.

In this study\, we investigate mental health distress among essential workers during the Coronavirus pandemic across race and ethnicity. We evaluate individual responses to the Patient Health Questionnaire and General Anxiety Disorder Questionnaire using unique\, nationally representative\, data set. Our findings suggest that Black essential healthcare workers disproportionately report symptoms of anxiety\; while\, Latino essential health-care workers disproportionately report symptoms of depression. Additionally\, we find that being a Black or Latino essential non-health care worker is associated with higher levels of distress related to anxiety and depression. These findings highlight the additional dimensions to which Black and Hispanic Americans are disproportionately being affected by the Coronavirus pandemic. Furthermore\, it calls into question how essential worker classifications\, compounded by US unemployment policies\, is potentially amplifying the mental health trauma experienced by workers.\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:83034-21257031@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/83034 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Economics,seminar LOCATION:Off Campus Location CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20210414T183029 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20210331T130000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20210331T140000 SUMMARY:Careers / Jobs:Underestimated Founder Pitch Competition presented by VC OpenDoor + Open Scout DESCRIPTION:Open Scout and VC OpenDoor have teamed up to host a virtual underestimated founder pitch competition to give underrepresented startup founders the opportunity to pitch live to a group of esteemed investors on March 31st.

Platooning is associated with two\, major societal benefits: environmental\, through lowered fuel consumption\, CO2 emission\, and traffic efficiency\, and safety improvement\, through automated driving. Quantification of fuel consumption in platoons depends on the computational fluid dynamics (CFD) of the system\, specifically the resistance or drag force of trucks. While optimization of fuel consumption is pivotal in truck platooning\, analysis of CFD is computationally expensive\, especially when uncertainties are present\, due to geometrical variability of trucks and platoons as well as in wind magnitude and direction. \n\nThis research proposes an artificial intelligence-based surrogate model which enables near real-time optimization of platoon configurations based on fuel consumption and impacts on pavement conditions. Attendees will learn how a deep neural network (DNN) model can be trained using data from CFD simulations that utilize high-performance computing (HPC) resources.

A search and matching equilibrium model. DESCRIPTION:Abstract:\nWhereas marriage is still the dominant framework to raise a family\, competitive partnerships emerge. Facing the increasing proportion of couples likely to cohabit rather than marry\, some provincial governments of Canada have enhanced the commitment related to cohabitation to protect women and children in case of separation. To understand the effects of such a policy on couple formation\, assortative matching and within-household allocation of resources\, we need an equilibrium model of marriage. In this paper\, I propose a search and matching model of marriage with two types of contracts where men and women draw utility from private consumption and leisure\, and may invest in a match specific good. The model is estimated on Canadian data. I then use this model to show how enhancing commitment of cohabiting couples might change the entry and exit rate into cohabitation and marriage\, impact assortative matching and the within-household allocation of the total resources.\n\n* To join the seminar\, please contact at econ.events@umich.edu UID:81204-20872030@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/81204 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Economics,seminar LOCATION:Off Campus Location CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20210323T161608 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20210331T150000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20210331T173000 SUMMARY:Social / Informal Gathering:Backpacking Conversation - Couzens DESCRIPTION:Come join MLCA Mas in the CAMEO Lounge on March 30th and March 31st from 3 PM - 5:30 PM for a conversation around backpacking and class selection!

This project closely examined one marsh complex that lies adjacent to Piermont Village along the Hudson River Estuary in New York. Village residents wanted to better understand how Piermont Marsh would buffer their village from storm-induced flooding and waves\, and whether a proposed plan to restore native cattails within a small area of the Phragmites-dominated marsh would lessen its buffering capacity.\n\nIn this webinar\, two members of the project team will explain how the team used state of the art modeling methods to simulate marsh vegetation and storm impacts produced by a series of past and future storm scenarios. By looking back at Superstorm Sandy in 2012 and projecting how much worse the damage could have been without the marsh\, the research team was able to put a dollar value on Piermont Marsh’s buffering services. They will share key takeaways from the research and explain how the findings are informing planning for the marsh and shoreline infrastructure.

Nonlinear in nature\, these mode transitions typically result from the existence of multiple stable plasma states. When developing new plasma sources\, transitions between states generally occur in mysterious and oftentimes unexpected ways. Unpredictable mode transitions are particularly problematic to the design of new plasma-based aerospace technologies\, such as electric propulsion systems. Detailed models of mode transition physics and scaling are critical to ensuring new systems behave as expected within their desired operating range. In this talk I will present experimental and theoretical research into the nature of mode transitions for two emerging technologies. The first is the helicon plasma thruster\, an electrodeless propulsion concept relying on radiofrequency plasma heating and acceleration through a magnetic nozzle. The second\, the plasma magnetoshell\, is an aerocapture concept using magnetized plasma to generate drag on a spacecraft entering a planetary atmosphere. I will highlight the potential for new data science techniques to significantly advance the discovery and analysis of plasma mode transitions.\n\nAbout the Speaker: \nDr. Justin Little is an Assistant Professor in the William E.

Two such “big data” resources that are reshaping how we understand environmental health are electronic health records and human cohorts with genome-wide molecular phenotyping. Each provides a unique perspective that is moving the field closer towards “personalized” insights into environmental health risks. Here I will talk about a series of studies which utilize electronic health records and molecularly phenotyped cohorts to investigate vulnerable populations\, gene-environment interactions\, and epigenetic biomarkers of environmental sensitivity. Together these studies are helping us to understand environmental health risks in a new light.\n\nShort bio:\n\nDr. Cavin Ward-Caviness is a Principal Investigator in the Public Health and Integrated Toxicology Division of the US Environmental Protection Agency. With a background in computational biology and environmental epidemiology\, Dr. Ward-Caviness seeks to understand the environmental factors which influence health in vulnerable populations and the molecular mechanisms that influence environmental health risks. The Ward-Caviness lab uses a variety of “big data” approaches\, and Dr. Ward-Caviness is the PI of the EPA CARES research resource\, which allows researchers to study environmental health effects in vulnerable patient populations\, e.g. individuals with heart failure\, using large electronic health record databases. Dr. Ward-Caviness is also interested in how epigenetics and metabolomics can serve as an early indicator of adverse health effects from chemical and social environmental exposures and in particular how molecular biomarkers can give us insight into how the environment may accelerate the aging process and thus contribute to chronic disease. By integrating molecular and clinical data\, Dr. Ward-Caviness seeks to understand environmental health as a way to advance personalized medicine and reduce health disparities.\n\nhttps://umich-health.zoom.us/j/93929606089?pwd=SHh6R1FOQm8xMThRemdxTEFMWWpVdz09 UID:83395-21369780@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/83395 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:20210414T183038 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20210331T160000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20210331T170000 SUMMARY:Careers / Jobs:Connecting with Michigan Daily Alum DESCRIPTION:This is a private event for current Michigan Daily (MD) staff.\n\nDuring this session\, we will...\n1.

It is now well established that the molecular genetics of such rhythms within the cell consist of interwoven transcriptional-translational feedback loops involving about 15 clock genes\, which generate circa 24-h oscillations in many cellular functions at cell population or whole organism levels. We will present statistical methods and modelling approaches that address newly emerging large circadian data sets\, namely spatio-temporal gene expression in SCN neurons and rest-activity actigraph data obtained from non-invasive e-monitoring\, both of which provide unique opportunities for furthering progress in understanding the synchronicity of circadian pacemaking and address implications for monitoring patients in chronotherapeutic healthcare.

This channel counteracts the standard expenditure-switching channel of exchange rates\, and can result in contractionary devaluations. We study the implications of the real income channel for monetary policy. \n\n* To join the seminar\, please contact at econ.events@umich.edu UID:81281-20879920@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/81281 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Economics,seminar LOCATION:Off Campus Location CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20210414T183027 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20210331T160000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20210331T170000 SUMMARY:Careers / Jobs:Piper Sandler Overview - 2022 Summer Analyst Investment Banking Opportunities DESCRIPTION:Please join us to learn more about our firm and 2022 summer internship opportunities in investment banking. \n\nAt Piper Sandler\, we’re only as successful as the talent we bring together.

Social scientists dating back at least as far as Gunnar Myrdal have argued that support for egalitarian policies would increase substantially if Whites only knew about the plight of African Americans. Similarly\, Black support for policies of racial redistribution is also less than monolithic. For example\, some surveys find only tepid support among Blacks for affirmative action or efforts to “defund the police.” Would this support increase if White and Black Americans were informed about the enormous racial wealth gap? We examine this question with two survey experiments fielded online by CloudResearch. Study 1 (N=1\,908) was fielded at the height of the George Floyd demonstrations in June of 2020. Subjects were randomly assigned either to a control condition\, where they were merely provided a definition of the racial wealth gap\, or to one of two treatment conditions that provided a defintion of the racial wealth gap. They were also provided with textual and visual information on the current size of the Black/White racial wealth gap based on information from the 2019 Survey of Consumer Finances. In general\, we find that the treatment conditions do increase information levels on the perceived size of the racial wealth gap\, but they do not increase support for racially redistributive policy proposals. In a second experiment\, scheduled for February of 2021\, we seek to replicate the results of the 2020 experiment and add two additional treatment conditions highlighting the fact that the median household headed by a Black college graduate has less wealth than the median household headed by a White high school dropout. This Study 2 experiment represents an even stronger test of the hypthesis that public support for racially redistributive policies would increase if Americans only knew the truth. We discuss the implications of our findings for the prospects of racial reconciliation in our conclusion.\n\nPlease click the link below to join the webinar:\nhttps://umich.zoom.us/j/99761388651\nOr iPhone one-tap : \n US: +13017158592\,\,99761388651# or +13126266799\,\,99761388651# \nOr Telephone:\n Dial(for higher quality\, dial a number based on your current location):\n US: +1 301 715 8592 or +1 312 626 6799 or +1 646 876 9923 or +1 253 215 8782 or +1 346 248 7799 or +1 669 900 6833 \n Canada: +1 647 374 4685 or +1 647 558 0588 or +1 778 907 2071 or +1 204 272 7920 or +1 438 809 7799 or +1 587 328 1099 \nWebinar ID: 997 6138 8651\n International numbers available: https://umich.zoom.us/u/accYW7peUD\n\nOr an H.323/SIP room system:\n H.323: \n 162.255.37.11 (US West)\n 162.255.36.11 (US East)\n 115.114.131.7 (India Mumbai)\n 115.114.115.7 (India Hyderabad)\n 213.19.144.110 (Amsterdam Netherlands)\n 213.244.140.110 (Germany)\n 103.122.166.55 (Australia Sydney)\n 103.122.167.55 (Australia Melbourne)\n 149.137.40.110 (Singapore)\n 64.211.144.160 (Brazil)\n 69.174.57.160 (Canada Toronto)\n 65.39.152.160 (Canada Vancouver)\n 207.226.132.110 (Japan Tokyo)\n 149.137.24.110 (Japan Osaka)\n Meeting ID: 997 6138 8651\n SIP: 99761388651@zoomcrc.com UID:81873-20982979@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/81873 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:african and afroamerican studies,LSA Collegiate Lecture LOCATION:Off Campus Location CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20210106T145158 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20210331T161500 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20210331T170500 SUMMARY:Exercise / Fitness:Cardio Hip Hop DESCRIPTION:Cardio Hip Hop is a high-intensity dance workout that uses choreographed movements set to Hip Hop and Top 40 music.

Anzaldúa’s writings and life place her somewhat precariously within discussions of both American Philosophy and disability studies. Yet\, to borrow a concept from Rosemarie Garland-Thomson (2011)\, it is precisely due to the “misfit” character of Anzaldúa’s career-long activism\, coalition building\, and writings\, that she is an important figure to analyze within these areas of study. Accordingly\, to place Anzaldúa’s work in relation to American philosophy and disability critique\, I turn specifically to several key concepts from Anzaldúa’s oeuvre that center questions of embodiment\, illness\, and colonial history in a manner that\, I argue\, add resources to a queer crip critique of the ablebodied heteronormativity of institutional medicine across the Americas.\n\nSPEAKER BIO\n\nAndrea Pitts (they/them) is Assistant Professor of Philosophy at the University of North Carolina\, Charlotte. Their research interests include women of color feminisms\, critical prison studies\, and decolonial theory. They are the author of Nos/Otras: Gloria E. Anzaldúa\, Multiplicitous Agency\, and Resistance (SUNY Press August 2021)\, and co-editor with Mariana Ortega and José Medina of Theories of the Flesh: Latinx and Latin American Feminisms\, Transformation\, and Resistance (Oxford University Press 2020) and Beyond Bergson: Examining Race and Colonialism through the Writings of Henri Bergson with Mark Westmoreland (SUNY Press 2019).
