SUMMARY:Exhibition:For Your Eyes Only
DESCRIPTION:Please Note: This exhibition is designed to be viewed through the gallery window on Thayer St.\n\nYasmine Nasser Diaz is the 2021 Efroymson Emerging Artist at the Institute for the Humanities.\n\nFor Your Eyes Only is the latest iteration of multidisciplinary artist Yasmine Nasser Diaz’s bedroom installation. At first glance\, the constructed space is a shimmering homage to the bedroom disco—a sanctuary for uninhibited dance and self-expression. It has also become the setting from which many personal videos are made and shared widely on social media\, where platforms such as Instagram and TikTok have blurred the boundary between public and private. Projected into the space is a montage of casual videos shared by female-identifying and non-binary persons of SWANA* origin dancing solo in their rooms. To some\, the videos may seem innocent and innocuous\, but they can also be seen as acts of defiance that assert the autonomy of bodies that have been surveilled\, scrutinized\, and censored throughout history. Alongside these intimate moments is a separate reel showing political figures and protest movements from the SWANA region. The images demonstrate the fluctuating attitudes and regulations impacting human rights and freedoms based on gender\, and exemplify how—whether we are physically at a protest or sharing our physicality in virtual spaces—our bodies are engaged in some level of risk.\n*Southwest Asian/North African\n\nThis project is supported by a grant from the Efroymson Family Fund.

SUMMARY:Livestream / Virtual:CAS Workshop | Trauma\, Memory\, and the History of Mental Health in Armenian Studies Past and Present
DESCRIPTION:By invitation only. Full participation requires the reading of pre-circulated papers. If you are interested in joining the meeting\, please contact armenianstudies@umich.edu.\n\nFull workshop schedule at: https://ii.umich.edu/armenian/news-events/all-events/workshops/april-2021-workshop.html\n\nIn recent years\, the history of trauma\, memory\, and mental health\, as well as the literary\, anthropological\, and sociological studies of madness have gained a remarkable momentum internationally. Still\, there have been virtually no substantial studies of a premodern and modern understanding of trauma\, memory\, and mental health in Armenia and its Diaspora. This interdisciplinary workshop aims to interrogate the stories of both medical and psychiatric sciences as well as that of the concepts of trauma and madness in Armenian political\, historical\, literary\, and cultural discussions in the past and present. The workshop will focus on the histories of medicine\, trauma\, and psychiatry and the portrayals of madness as a form of behavior\, marker of difference\, and tool of body politics across periods and geographies. The workshop organizers are interested in the broader history of medicine\, but they would like to draw particular attention to the historical and contemporary landscapes in which medical professionals sought to exercise their authorities over mental illnesses and the mind itself.\n\nIn the nineteenth and twentieth centuries\, tools and theories have provided medical professionals with renewed opportunities to intervene in the social\, political and cultural spheres with the shared objective of devising and implementing therapies of madness. In this\, the workshop will initiate an interdisciplinary conversation about the concept\, diagnosis\, treatment\, “The Genius and the Crowd” (1909) by Yeghishe Tadevosyan (1870-1936) and social construction of “madness.” The goal is to consider new perspectives\, methodologies and crossdisciplinary frameworks that will put Armenian Studies in conversation with\, among others\, the growing fields of history of medicine\, science\, and technology studies. We are also interested in a comparative study of genocides and trans-generational transmission of trauma by underlining both parallel mechanisms and unique features of the legacies of various historical and social traumas\, such as the Holocaust\, the historical oppression and colonization of native peoples in America and African-American slavery. As such\, an examination of the loops between various forms of colonial\, structural and ethnic violence\, socio-political discourses and embodied individual experiences are of interest for our discussion.\n\nIn the course of the workshop\, the hope is to call into question what was and is culturally defined as madness as well as medical and societal interventions to “cure” madness and “contain” the mad. Therefore\, this meeting will situate the notion of madness at the intersection of politics\, medicine\, literature\, sociology\, and anthropology and seeks to explore the changes in its definition and the underpinnings of perceptions of mental illnesses at critical junctures of history in Armenia and amongst its diasporic communities across the globe.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Internet Memes from Politics to TikTok
DESCRIPTION:This lecture will be live streamed.\n\nMemes are one of the most complex and unique cultural elements of internet use. From dancing on TikTok to political posts on Facebook\, information packaged as memes shapes both culture and opinion. In this talk\, I’ll describe both the phenomena and research. Studies of memes have uncovered much about social systems on the internet. While often considered entertainment\, I’ll also cover the darker side of memes in advertising\, politics\, and cultural warfare.\n\nEytan Adar is an Associate Professor of Information and Computer Science at the University of Michigan. Prof. Adar works in human computer interaction. Using artificial intelligence and data mining approaches his group studies large scale internet phenomena and builds new tools for end-users. He worked for a number of years at HP labs and Xerox PARC (spinning out a personalized search company called Outride somewhere in there). His website is at http://www.cond.org.\n\nThis is the last of a six-lecture series. The subject of the series is Graphic Books and Memes. A new series will start April 15\, 2021. The topic  is:  Central America: Coffee to Caravans. Learn from well-known experts about an array of interesting subjects\, with an interactive Q&A period following each lecture.\n\nPreregistration is required via the OLLI website or phone.  A link to access the lecture will be e-mailed to you approximately one week prior to the first session.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:CCPS Lecture. The Themersons and the Art of Translation
DESCRIPTION:This talk is a simple introduction to a complicated subject: the Themersons\, their life in images – still and moving\, and words in a multitude of configurations. Both Stefan Themerson (1910-88) and Franciszka Themerson (1907-88) were born in Poland\, where they made experimental films. In 1938 they moved to Paris\, and between 1940 and 1942 the war deposited them in London\, where they spent the rest of their lives. Franciszka was a painter\, graphic designer\, stage designer\, film maker\, and publisher. Stefan was a filmmaker\, writer\, poet\, graphic designer\, and publisher.\n   \nThe topic of translation relates to nearly everything: word into sound\; one language into another\; face into a portrait\, events into a chart. This is something that Stefan thought and talked about\, and invented his own form of translation\, which he called Semantic Poetry.\n   \nJasia Reichardt is a writer on art and an exhibition organizer. She was born in Poland\, educated in England\, and has lived in London most of her life. She was assistant director of the ICA in London from 1963-71\, and director of the Whitechapel Art Gallery from 1974-76. She has taught at the Architectural Association and other colleges\, has written for most of the international art magazines\, as well as some books\, and has contributed to many international exhibitions and conferences throughout the world. She is the Themersons’ niece\, and after the Themersons’ deaths in 1988\, together with Nick Wadley\, she organized their archive\, which is now with the National Library in Warsaw.\n   \nRegistration for this webinar is required at https://myumi.ch/MEb4G\n\nIf there is anything we can do to make this event accessible to you\, please contact us at weisercenter@umich.edu. Please be aware that advance notice is necessary as some accommodations may require more time for the university to arrange.

SUMMARY:Livestream / Virtual:CJS Lecture Series | Unseen Artists in a Theater of Timeless Pace: Iconic *Bonsai* Inspire Iconoclastic Futures
DESCRIPTION:Please note\, all posted event times are in the U.S. Eastern Time Zone.\n\nThe University of Michigan's emergence as a steward of nationally significant bonsai marks an inflexion point in the Academy for engagement with this international art form. While exhibited specimens are inherently focused on both this moment and change\, the discipline itself is undergoing renewal in the United States. Today's presentation places this emergent collection in icontemporary academic and cultural contexts\, including the necessity of exhibiting outstanding canonical specimens reflective of bonsai's Japanese heritage.\n   \nDavid Michener is the Curator at the UM Matthaei Botanical Gardens and Nichols Arboretum. After receiving his PhD in Botany from the Claremont Graduate School he was at Harvard's Arnold Arboretum before coming to the University of Michigan. He is most widely known for his work on historic peonies. He has been active in the reinterpretation of the Freer House's Garden at Wayne State University.\n   \nCarmen Leskoviansky has been caring for the UM Matthaei Botanical Gardens and Nichols Arboretum's Bonsai and Penjing collection since 2011. Her degree in horticulture is from MIchigan State University. Carmen began studying with American bonsai artist Michael Hagedorn\, of Crataegus Bonsai\, in 2018 and will begin a 3-year apprenticeship in May 2021.\n\nIf there is anything we can do to make this event accessible to you\, please contact us.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:CSAAW Seminar Presents: \"Improving causal inference controls using network theory in discrete choice data\"
DESCRIPTION:Meeting Link: https://umich.zoom.us/j/93338242486\nPasscode: csaaw2021\nPhone ID: 933 3824 2486\nPhone Passcode: 400052931\n\nAbstract: Many datasets in social sciences are a result of agents making repeated choices over time\, with some observable outcome resulting from each choice. Researchers often want to model the causal impact of covariates on the outcome variable using different estimation strategies (e.g. fixed effects regression\, difference-in-differences\, instrumental variables\, etc). I propose a way to increase control in these estimation procedures by using network theory models motivated by a discrete choice framework. I suggest a bi-partite network representation of these datasets\, with agents being nodes on one side of the network and choices being nodes on the other side of it. Edges in this network represent a choice made by an agent at a certain time\, resulting from a discrete choice problem. I argue that the structure of connections in this choice-network allows the researcher to further improve controls when modelling the outcome variable. For instance\, I use the choice-network to project agents in a multidimensional latent space that captures each agent's choice-profile and distances between agents in this latent space represent a metric of similarity between them. I propose exploring the high-dimensional choice-profile of agents to improve causal inference exercises in a series of ways.\n\nBernardo Modenesi is a Ph.D. candidate in Economics\, also pursuing a masters degree in Statistics\, at the University of Michigan. Bernardo's interests lie in interdisciplinary statistical methods\, such as network theory and machine learning\, for the improvement of causal inference exercises and economic modelling.

SUMMARY:Livestream / Virtual:P&SC/G&FP Colloquium: Legacy of Slavery or Extreme Poverty: Narrating Black Pessimism
DESCRIPTION:Abstract: The focus of the current work is the long-held assumption that captive Africans exited slavery exhibiting a level of cultural and psychological backwardness that made adjustment to freedom problematic. This legacy of slavery trope is said to be a major factor causing contemporary black-on-black violence. As a counter narrative\, extreme poverty\, revealed from the perspective of black political economy covering the Great Depression to the present\, is shown to provide a better platform from which to understand challenges faced by black people.\n\nBio: William E. Cross\, Jr.\, PhD received his doctorate in social psychology from Princeton University and is the author of Shades of Black\, an important book on black identity published by Temple University Press in 1991. Dr. Cross’s new book Black Identity Viewed from a Barber's Chair: Nigrescence and Eudaimonia (view publisher page\; view book flyer) will be published by Temple University Press in June 2021. In 2017 Dr. Cross was accorded emeritus status by the University of Denver\, where he held a joint appointment in Counseling Psychology and Higher Education. The first twenty years of his academic career were spent at the African Studies and Research Center\, Cornell University. There followed appointments at Penn State\, UMass-Amherst\, and UNLV\, and ten years with the Critical Psychology Program at the Graduate Center-CUNY\, in New York City.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Storytelling for Social Justice
DESCRIPTION:Storytelling — listening to the stories of others and sharing one’s own stories — builds a foundation for human interaction. Telling others how we got here and why we care about an issue builds connection\, allows us to share our values\, and creates meaning. The art of public narrative is used in all aspects of social work practice — from helping our clients rewrite the stories they tell themselves\, to helping communities and groups galvanize social change\, to helping policy makers and politicians tell a “story of self” while creating a “story of us.”  Join us for a discussion featuring Aaron Foley\, former chief storyteller for the City of Detroit and current professor of journalism at New York University\; Eric Thomas\, current chief storyteller for the City of Detroit\; and Jessica Care Moore\, Detroit poet\, activist and author.  \nRSVP for Zoom Link\nhttps://ssw.umich.edu/assets/rsvp-request/index.php?page=register&id=W210

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Highbrow Punk\, Simple & Not As Simple Bindings for Zines\, Chapbooks\, or Whatever
DESCRIPTION:Conservation technician Kyle Clark teaches you to produce simple one and two signature book structures appropriate for making editioned books with minimal tools. You'll be introduced to methods of designing and editioning books\, zines\, and artists books from scratch with the use of home and office art supplies combined with digital scanning and printing technologies. You'll produce three bookbinding models (two softcover and one hardcover)\, a book design prototype\, and will have the opportunity to contribute to an exquisite corpse zine.\n\nLetterpress printing and fine binding are beautiful expressions of the book but often involve expensive and bulky equipment which can be a barrier to book production.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:SEMINAR: \"Supporting medication reconciliation and medication self-management: the implication of home health quality reporting requirements on the home care admission visit\" — Ellen Bass
DESCRIPTION:The Departmental Seminar Series is open to all. U-M Industrial and Operations Engineering graduate students and faculty are especially encouraged to attend.\n\nTitle:\nSupporting medication reconciliation and medication self-management: the implication of home health quality reporting requirements on the home care admission visit\n\nAbstract:\nIn the United States\, the landscape for the operations and evaluation of Medicare-certified home health agencies has changed radically in the last five years. In January 2016\, the Center for Medicare & Medicaid Innovation Center launched the Home Health Value Based Purchasing Model (HHVBPM) and in November 2018\, CMS finalized a case-mix classification model that went into effect January 1\, 2020. The timeframe of home health payments changed from a 60-day episode to a 30-day period. To evaluate the agencies\, the model uses data from several sources. The inclusion of Outcome and Assessment Information Set (OASIS) dataset derived from the patient home care episodes coupled with the shortening of the home care episode period place a burden on the admission visit. Systems engineering research can help to address the associated data collection and documentation burden. Given that home care and other post-acute care settings were omitted from Meaningful Use developments\, their progress in supporting smooth information transfer and applications of decision support and data science lag behind acute care. Thus research can identify whether some data could be acquired as part of the referral into home care. Finally research is required to ensure that the quality and outcome measures are differentiating the agencies in ways that improve patient care.  This talk will discuss a four-year multidisciplinary collaborative research project addressing standards for health information technology to support the homecare admission process. It will address the characterization of information requirements\, decision-making\, and workflow for admitting nurses based on focus groups\, observations\, and document review of 3 agencies (serving rural\, suburban\, urban populations) using 3 different HIT systems. The analysis will focus on three critical clinical decisions (medication self-management capability\, problems to put on the care plan\, next visit timing and frequency of future visits).\n\nBio:\nEllen J. Bass is Interim Associate Dean for Research and Professor in the Department of Information Science in the Drexel University’s College of Computing and Informatics. She is a Professor and Chair of the Department of Health Systems and Sciences Research in the College of Nursing and Health Professions.

DESCRIPTION:RSVP online here: http://www.cew.umich.edu/events/launching-your-ship\n\nIn this workshop\, Woods will share experiences in creatively tackling problems and experiencing the joys of coalition building. Participants will be encouraged to think about how they approach situations where the ship they are in seems to be stuck in a port and is not going anywhere. Stuck in racism? Stuck in sexism? Stuck in certain social classes? What do you need to make your ship sail? Will a new captain do it? Or\, should you be the “Captain of your own fate?” Do you need a new destination? Are you bored with the direction you have been going? Are you going in circles? Do you need new perspectives\, new shipmates? Have you outgrown the mundane\, xenophobic habits of those in your circle? How can you develop healthy habits to move your life and community forward? Short\, interactive activities will assist each participant in using the ship metaphor to move forward in their life.\n\nAn integral part of the Inspire initiative is pairing advocacy\, social change\, and activism with skills that enhance a sense of wellbeing\, focus\, and interconnectedness. A short guided Mindfulness Meditation practice will be incorporated into the program. \n\nWendy Ann Woods served the citizens of Ann Arbor from 2001 to 2007 as City Councilwoman.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Communication and Media Speaker Series Event
DESCRIPTION:Panel Presentations:\n\nPairing Mobile Traces and Surveys to Situate Social Media Effects\nProfessor Joe Bayer\nAssistant Professor in the School of Communication and Translational Data Analytics Institute\nThe Ohio State University\n\nLecture Abstract:\nThis talk advances a spatial approach for clarifying the contested literature on social media and well-being. Drawing on data from a large mobile sensing project\, new results are presented concerning how social media use varies by location and transportation mode in daily life -- and how situated app use relates to emotional well-being. In the process\, the opportunities and obstacles associated with designing studies that directly pair mobile traces (e.g.\, app logs\, GPS) and surveys (e.g.\, ESM\, EMA) are discussed. To that end\, the talk showcases the potential of using mobile traces to understand the psychological implications of communication technologies.\n\nCommunication\, Technology and Games: A Talk in Three Levels\nProfessor Dmitri Williams\nAssociate Professor at the USC Annenberg School for Communication\n\nLecture Abstract:\nIn 2020 games became the majority of all media activity\, surpassing radio\, books\, film and TV combined. As a relatively underexamined medium\, games continue to afford excellent data and opportunities for researchers. Professor Williams will walk through his recent and current work around communities\, social dynamics and measurement using game data. After an adventure into startups\, this work is informed by a mix of theoretical and practical considerations. His research agenda is framed by general Comm and CMC theories\, and uses a wide range of methodologies\, including ethnography and participant observation\, experiments\, surveys\, and large-scale data techniques.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Cognitive Science Community Speaker Event
DESCRIPTION:Assistant Professor Savithry Namboodiripad\, U-M Department of Linguistics\, will give a talk on language change.\n\nABSTRACT\nHow do languages change in multilingual contexts? In this talk\, I'll run through a few different types of language change\, and show how taking an interdisciplinary approach can help us understand how factors such as language ideology and language policy might influence how words are pronounced/understood\, as well as how words are ordered. I will show some examples across contexts\, from American English and Malayalam\, and argue that differences in how speakers categorize linguistic material as belonging to one language or another is an important factor in how languages change due to language contact.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:MLK Reading Series
DESCRIPTION:Join MCSP\, CSP\, and LSWA for a series of conversations addressing the legacy of Martin Luther King Jr. at this crucial turning point in the history of racism in America. More than fifty years ago\, King made a call for a poor people’s campaign to take up arms against the evils of racism\, poverty\, and militarism. Yet\, King’s expanding and increasingly radical vision for his work is often forgotten\, co-opted by voices that distort his emphasis on love\, compassion\, and nonviolence to serve the status quo. Anti-racist activists who’ve followed King have had to grapple with how to interpret and respond to his legacy. One of them\, the Rev. William Barber relaunched the Poor People’s Campaign in 2018\, adding to King’s list of evils “environmental degradation” and calling for a multiracial coalition of poor people to challenge America’s exploitation of its people and the land. This three-part reading group will trace King’s varied legacy from his last published book to the present day and consider how those of us working for social justice can understand and build on his legacy.\n\nAny questions\, or to receive the RSVP link for the reading materials and the Zoom link\, email LSWA Director Carol Tell (tellc@umich.edu). \n\nJan. 13\, 5 p.m. King\, “The World House\,” from Where Do We Go From Here: Chaos or Community? \nFeb. 25\, 5 p.m. “MLK Now” by Brandon Terry and responses\nNEW DATE Apr. 8\, 5 p.m. William Barber\, “Pastoral Letter to the Nation” and Marc Lamont Hill\, “Language of the Unheard” and “Toward an Abolitionist Vision”

SUMMARY:Film Screening:Korean Cinema NOW | Kim Ji-young: Born 1982/ 82년생 김지영
DESCRIPTION:Access the film through the Michigan Theater here (customer pre-registration required): https://www.michtheater.org/2021-korean-cinema-now/\n\n2019 | 118 Minutes | Kim Do-young\n\nFree | Open to the public | In Korean with English subtitles\n\n“… I was also braced for a stereotypically shallow portrait of an identikit tyrant/workaholic/drunken/disengaged husband\, either ill-equipped or unwilling to address the problems right in front of him. As the title makes clear\, this is the story of one woman\, Kim Ji-young\, whose survival in an institutionally sexist world could surely only be hindered\, not helped\, by her spouse\; emotionally stunted male portraits are as sadly common on screen as they are pathetically prevalent in real life. In short\, I was ready for my gender to be held up to uncomfortable scrutiny – for masculinity to take another much deserved\, but all too familiar\, beating.\n\nInstead I was offered something I never expected from a mainstream drama blockbuster\, a character I could relate to in an almost painful way. As a cohabiting male in my mid-thirties squirming to define a man’s role in 2019\, I wasn’t just gifted a window into my partner’s struggles\, but a portrait of the everyday societal pressures undermining my own earnest efforts to be the model\, modern man.” –Rob Garratt\, SCMP STYLE\n\nKorean Cinema NOW 2021 will be presented through a virtual format. Attendees should visit the Michigan Theater website to register for the film on the screening dates. Once registered with a customer account\, attendees will receive a confirmation with a link to view the film. This video link will only be available for 72 hours from the time you press play.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:For Your Eyes Only
DESCRIPTION:Please Note: This exhibition is designed to be viewed through the gallery window on Thayer St.\n\nYasmine Nasser Diaz is the 2021 Efroymson Emerging Artist at the Institute for the Humanities.\n\nFor Your Eyes Only is the latest iteration of multidisciplinary artist Yasmine Nasser Diaz’s bedroom installation. At first glance\, the constructed space is a shimmering homage to the bedroom disco—a sanctuary for uninhibited dance and self-expression. It has also become the setting from which many personal videos are made and shared widely on social media\, where platforms such as Instagram and TikTok have blurred the boundary between public and private. Projected into the space is a montage of casual videos shared by female-identifying and non-binary persons of SWANA* origin dancing solo in their rooms. To some\, the videos may seem innocent and innocuous\, but they can also be seen as acts of defiance that assert the autonomy of bodies that have been surveilled\, scrutinized\, and censored throughout history. Alongside these intimate moments is a separate reel showing political figures and protest movements from the SWANA region. The images demonstrate the fluctuating attitudes and regulations impacting human rights and freedoms based on gender\, and exemplify how—whether we are physically at a protest or sharing our physicality in virtual spaces—our bodies are engaged in some level of risk.\n*Southwest Asian/North African\n\nThis project is supported by a grant from the Efroymson Family Fund.

SUMMARY:Livestream / Virtual:Interdisciplinary Seminar on Social Science Methodology (I3SM)
DESCRIPTION:Wendy K. Tam Cho\, Professor of Political Science\, Statistics\, Mathematics\, Computer Science\, Asian American Studies\, and the College of Law at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign\, will be delivering the Interdisciplinary Seminar in Social Science Methodology's virtual keynote this year on Friday\, April 9 from 9:30 am to 11:00 am EDT. She will be presenting a talk titled \"A Parallel Evolutionary Multiple-Try Metropolis Markov Chain Monte Carlo Algorithm for Redistricting Analysis.\" \n\nAbstract:\n\nImportant insights into redistricting can be gained by formulating and analyzing the problem within a large-scale spatial optimization and sampling framework. Redistricting is an application of the graph-partitioning problem that is NP-Hard.  We develop an Evolutionary Markov Chain Monte Carlo (EMCMC) algorithm for sampling spatial partitions that lie within a large\, complex\, and constrained spatial state space. Our algorithm combines the advantages of evolutionary algorithms as optimization heuristics for state space traversal and the theoretical convergence properties of Markov Chain Monte Carlo algorithms for sampling from unknown distributions. Local optimality information that is identified via a directed search by our optimization heuristic is used to adaptively update a Markov chain in a promising direction within the framework of a Multiple-Try Metropolis Markov Chain model that incorporates a generalized Metropolis-Hastings ratio. We further expand the reach of our EMCMC algorithm by harnessing the computational power afforded by massively parallel computing architecture through the integration of a parallel EA framework that guides Markov chains running in parallel. We experimentally demonstrate the effectiveness of our algorithm to utilize hundreds of thousands of processors for the redistricting problem.  The massive computing power allows us to extract new substantive insights that closely mesh with the framework that the Supreme Court has elucidated for electoral reform.\n--\nThe primary function of the Interdisciplinary Seminar in Social Science Methodology (I3SM) is to provide an interdisciplinary forum for students and faculty to present their current projects and to receive feedback on either the methodological component of their project or a methodology under development. Presenters can also present new research questions and ideas and receive ideas about which methodologies would work best to tackle such questions. We define methodology broadly as the approaches to which data is collected and/or organized to give empirical content to social science research. It includes both qualitative and quantitative methodologies.\n\nTo join the meeting via Zoom\, email skuzushi@umich.edu for the meeting link.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Applied Microeconomics | Industrial Organization: Scaling Auctions as Insurance: A Case Study in Infrastructure Procurement
DESCRIPTION:Abstract:\nMost U.S. government spending on highways and bridges is done through “scaling” procurement auctions\, in which private construction firms submit unit price bids for each piece of material required to complete a project. Using data on bridge maintenance projects undertaken by the Massachusetts Department of Transportation (MassDOT)\, we present evidence that firm bidding behavior in this context is consistent with optimal skewing under risk aversion: firms limit their risk exposure by placing lower unit bids on items with greater uncertainty. We estimate bidders’ risk aversion\, the risk in each auction\, and the distribution of bidders’ private costs. Simulating equilibrium item-level bids under counterfactual settings\, we estimate the fraction of project spending that is due to risk and evaluate auction mechanisms under consideration by policymakers. We find that scaling auctions provide substantial savings relative to lump sum auctions and show how our framework can be used to evaluate alternative auction designs.\n\n\n* To join the seminar\, please contact at econ.events@umich.edu

SUMMARY:Livestream / Virtual:CAS Workshop | Trauma\, Memory\, and the History of Mental Health in Armenian Studies Past and Present
DESCRIPTION:By invitation only. Full participation requires the reading of pre-circulated papers. If you are interested in joining the meeting\, please contact armenianstudies@umich.edu.\n\nFull workshop schedule at: https://ii.umich.edu/armenian/news-events/all-events/workshops/april-2021-workshop.html\n\nIn recent years\, the history of trauma\, memory\, and mental health\, as well as the literary\, anthropological\, and sociological studies of madness have gained a remarkable momentum internationally. Still\, there have been virtually no substantial studies of a premodern and modern understanding of trauma\, memory\, and mental health in Armenia and its Diaspora. This interdisciplinary workshop aims to interrogate the stories of both medical and psychiatric sciences as well as that of the concepts of trauma and madness in Armenian political\, historical\, literary\, and cultural discussions in the past and present. The workshop will focus on the histories of medicine\, trauma\, and psychiatry and the portrayals of madness as a form of behavior\, marker of difference\, and tool of body politics across periods and geographies. The workshop organizers are interested in the broader history of medicine\, but they would like to draw particular attention to the historical and contemporary landscapes in which medical professionals sought to exercise their authorities over mental illnesses and the mind itself.\n\nIn the nineteenth and twentieth centuries\, tools and theories have provided medical professionals with renewed opportunities to intervene in the social\, political and cultural spheres with the shared objective of devising and implementing therapies of madness. In this\, the workshop will initiate an interdisciplinary conversation about the concept\, diagnosis\, treatment\, “The Genius and the Crowd” (1909) by Yeghishe Tadevosyan (1870-1936) and social construction of “madness.” The goal is to consider new perspectives\, methodologies and crossdisciplinary frameworks that will put Armenian Studies in conversation with\, among others\, the growing fields of history of medicine\, science\, and technology studies. We are also interested in a comparative study of genocides and trans-generational transmission of trauma by underlining both parallel mechanisms and unique features of the legacies of various historical and social traumas\, such as the Holocaust\, the historical oppression and colonization of native peoples in America and African-American slavery. As such\, an examination of the loops between various forms of colonial\, structural and ethnic violence\, socio-political discourses and embodied individual experiences are of interest for our discussion.\n\nIn the course of the workshop\, the hope is to call into question what was and is culturally defined as madness as well as medical and societal interventions to “cure” madness and “contain” the mad. Therefore\, this meeting will situate the notion of madness at the intersection of politics\, medicine\, literature\, sociology\, and anthropology and seeks to explore the changes in its definition and the underpinnings of perceptions of mental illnesses at critical junctures of history in Armenia and amongst its diasporic communities across the globe.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Statistics Department Seminar Series: Chiara Sabatti\, Professor of Biomedical Data Science and Statistics\, Department of Statistics\, Stanford University
DESCRIPTION:Abstract: Recent progress in machine learning (ML) provides us with many potentially effective tools to learn from datasets of ever increasing sizes and make useful predictions. How do we know that these tools can be trusted in critical and high-sensitivity systems? If a learning algorithm predicts the GPA of a prospective college applicant\, what guarantees do we have concerning the accuracy of this prediction? How do we know that it is not biased against certain groups of applicants? I will introduce examples of diverse domain applications where these questions are important\, as well as statistical ideas to ensure that the learned models apply to individuals in an equitable manner. In work with Yaniv Romano\, Rina Barber\, and Emmanuel Candes\, we show how to achieve some fairness objectives we do not need to “open up the black box\,” and try understanding its underpinnings. Rather\, we discuss broad methodologies — ex. conformal inference — that can be wrapped around any black box to produce results that can be trusted and that are “fair.’’\n\nThis seminar will be livestreamed via Zoom https://umich.zoom.us/j/94350208889.

SUMMARY:Livestream / Virtual:“Ions and proteins: the essential partners that fold RNA and DNA”
DESCRIPTION:Abstract: The nucleic acids\, RNA and DNA\, play versatile and critically important roles in biology.  The information storage capacity of DNA has long been recognized\, and awareness of RNA’s prominence in biology continues to grow. Because both RNA and DNA  carry large negative charge\, interaction with oppositely charged partners is required for folding and function. Despite the important roles of these partners\, little is known about how they structure\, or interact with nucleic acids. We design experiments to reveal the role of partners\, ranging from ions through proteins\, in systems ranging from single stranded DNA or RNA through large assemblies\, like viruses. Simulation and computation are important components of our work\, and often offer surprising insight into our results.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:LUNCH & LEARN: \"Good to Great - Better Understand Three Key Analytical Skills\" — Huizhu Crystal Wang
DESCRIPTION:This event is open to all including U-M students\, faculty\, and staff.\n\nTitle:\nGood to Great - Better Understand Three Key Analytical Skills\n\nAbstract:\nAfter working in several different analytics areas (Credit Industry\, Mobility\, Supply Chain)\, I have consistently observed three critical analytical skills that differentiate good & great data scientists:\n— 1) Interpreting Data Insights - Data insights often come from spotting a special pattern or unexpected results. I will share some examples and their Aha moments.\n— 2) Design Thinking - What's the central question we are addressing? We often jump into problem-solving directly\, and overlook how we frame the problem. There are some cases where the right central question is the game-changer.\n— 3) Prototyping/Deployment Skills - A trend shifting from presenting results to an interactive way. It makes a real difference in how users use your excellent optimization models to make data-driven decisions.\nThere are undoubtedly many other essential skills\, optimization\, simulation\, statistics\, machine learning\, data structure\, programming\, communication\, story-telling\, visualization\, data validation\, etc. These three skills with examples can help you better understand them and master them.\n\nBio:\nHuizhu Crystal Wang has been an Analytics Supervisor at Ford Motor Company for four years and has worked on several impactful analytical projects (e.g. choice model\, Auto loan pricing optimization\, vehicle routing problems\, and supply chain optimization.) Her team successfully launched a dynamic routing product into the market in 2018. She currently leads one of Ford GDIA Supply Chain Analytics teams. She received a Ph.D. in Operations Research from Georgia Tech and B.S. in Industrial Engineering from Tsinghua University.

SUMMARY:Livestream / Virtual:Alum Connections: Dr. Gina Fundaro
DESCRIPTION:Alum Connection: Women’s Health leader & Entrepreneur\, Dr. Gina Fundaro \n\nIn January 2020\, Dr. Gina Fundaro found herself at a crossroads. She was a successful breast imaging radiologist with Henry Ford Health System\, while her children were also succeeding athletically in their early teenage years. After a twenty-year career impacting patients’ lives\, Gina made the decision to stop practicing medicine and open three Goldfish Swim Schools in Virginia. Just over a year later\, Gina is back working with patients part-time. A proud U-M Dearborn graduate\, Gina attributes her liberal arts education for giving her both a desire to serve others through her medical vocation and the agility to pivot into entrepreneurial pursuits. Join Gina for a conversation about exploring a medical career in service to others--and having the courage to make life changes as an established adult and professional. \n \nAbout Dr. Gina Fundaro:\nA lifelong native of Michigan\, Dr. Gina Fundaro spent the majority of her career at Henry Ford Health System. She was also the site director of the Henry Ford Fairlane Breast Center. Prior to this\, she worked at the Alexander Walt Comprehensive Breast Center of the Karmanos Cancer Institute from 2005 to 2007. She specializes in breast imaging and breast interventional procedures. She joined a private group\, Regional Medical Imaging in January 2021. \n \nHer passion for women’s healthcare arose while in college following her grandmother’s death from preventable breast cancer. It highlighted the need to catch breast tumors early\, spurring her to enter radiology and help women fight the disease.\n \nBeing a physician\, it was important to Gina that her kids learned how to swim. This passion also drove Gina to learn how to swim at age 39\, and in 2012\, she completed an Ironman Triathlon. Two years later\, Gina and her husband opened their first of three Goldfish Swim Schools in Northern\, VA.  \n\nYou should attend this session if you are:\nA UM Literature\, Science\, and the Arts undergraduate student with interests in working in the field of healthcare\nInterested in medical school and/or pursuing a career in medicine\, specifically radiology\nHoping to learn from an alum about navigating life in medical school\, as well as finding work-life balance as a practicing physician\n \nWhat you’ll gain from attending this session:\nGet insights from an experienced physician who currently sits on the Mott Hospital Council and Women's Health Leadership Council at Michigan Medicine\nLearn about the career possibilities within medicine prior to applying to medical school. \nGain critical advice about pursuing both a lifelong career but also shorter professional pursuits\n\nRSVP now to be part of the conversation. The link to join this Alum Connection will be emailed to you after you RSVP.\n\nPosting Disclaimer:\nRSVP now to reserve your spot. By signing up\, you will receive an email with details on how to join this virtual workshop the morning of the session.\n\nThe LSA Opportunity Hub aims to deliver inclusive and accessible experiences and welcomes all LSA students to participate.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Molecular Basis of Inherited Parkinson’s disease
DESCRIPTION:Note: change in time to 1 PM\n\nAbstract: Today more than 1 million people in the U.S. suffer from Parkinson’s disease\, and although most cases are idiopathic\,perhaps as many as 20% of cases have a genetic basis. We study the effect of mutations in the LRRK2 kinase that is the most frequent cause of inherited Parkinson’s. Pathogenic LRRK2 phosphorylates a subset of Rab GTPases that are\nmaster regulators of membrane trafficking. We have discovered that Rab10 phosphorylation flips a switch on its function —phosphoRab10 bind an entirely new set of effectors that regulate the formation of primary cilia in cell culture and mouse brain. We are also studying regulation of LRRK2 by the PPM1H phosphatase and how loss of cilia could trigger Parkinson’s disease.\n\nHost: Ming Li

SUMMARY:Class / Instruction:AE200 Seminar Series\, Venturing in Aerospace
DESCRIPTION:Ellen Chang\nFounder & Managing Partner\nSyndicate 708\n\nToday\, much of the A&D industry is at risk from disruption. The democratization of technology\, digitalization\, globalization\, the atomization of security threats\, and other factors are disrupting many A&D markets in ways not seen for years. These forces are opening the door for more nimble competitors and new entrants able to compete in different ways - leveraging commercial trends that originate from other sectors. \n \nMaking incremental choices to run faster just to keep up will become increasingly insufficient. To outperform\, companies will need to scale innovation by not only making internal investments but also through building new partnerships with new found partners\, largely startups\, whose ambitions know no boundaries.\n\nAbout the speaker...\n\nEllen is founder/managing partner of Syndicate 708\, a deep tech focused investment syndicate that looks to invest in and accelerate Deep Tech companies @ LightSpeed. Syndicate 708 is especially focused on  investing in and fostering startups in the aerospace sector. She also is director at BMNT\, a defense innovation consultancy\, and leads H4X Labs\, an accelerator and venture studio for deep tech/dual use startups.  \n \nEllen’s career spans from the U.S. Navy as an intelligence officer to JP Morgan where she focused on exploring and facilitating investing in start-ups. She later founded her own start-up in the aviation industry where the team focused on building a B2B aviation part sourcing and brokerage focused on business jets.

SUMMARY:Presentation:CCN Forum:  Developing a community resource for natural language neuroimaging
DESCRIPTION:Cognitive neuroscientists are trained to use clever experimental manipulations to decompose complex cognitive phenomena—like language—into simpler\, more manageable components. This approach relies on the assumption that we can recompose our piecemeal models into a satisfying understanding of ecological brain function. Drawing parallels with machine learning and evolutionary theory\, we challenge this assumption and argue that ecological considerations should play a more central role in cognitive neuroscience. One critical step in this direction is the development of well-curated public datasets that can serve as benchmarks for model evaluation. With this in mind\, we present the “Narratives” data collection—a naturalistic fMRI dataset comprising over 800 scans acquired while participants listened to a variety of spoken stories. We discuss both opportunities and challenges that arise in scaling up to a more community-based paradigm for model development in naturalistic neuroimaging.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:HET Seminar | A Model of Couplings
DESCRIPTION:Seminar link:http://myumi.ch/O4P7E\n\nString theory predicts that the couplings of Nature descend from dynamical fields. All known string-motivated particle physics models also come with a wide range of possible extra sectors. It is common to posit that such moduli are frozen to a background value\, and that extra sectors can be nearly completely decoupled. In this talk we show that performing a partial trace over all sectors other than the visible sector generically puts the visible sector in a mixed state\, with coupling constants drawn from a quantum statistical ensemble. An observable consequence of this entanglement between visible and extra sectors is that the reported values of couplings will appear to have an irreducible variance. There is a consequent interplay between energy range and precision of an experiment that allows an extended reach for new physics.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Smith Lecture: Geochemical Constraints on Past Continental Crust Composition and Earth Surface Conditions
DESCRIPTION:Zoom Meeting ID#929 5335 9947\nThe geochemical composition of Earth’s continental crust and the fine-grained sediment produced through its weathering (known as dust) is key for understanding how the solid Earth interacts with and influences surface environments\, climate\, and life. Much of what we know about the timing of wet magmatism through plate subduction\, past contributions of nutrients sourced from mineral dust to marine and terrestrial ecosystems\, and fundamental changes in Earth surface conditions reconstructed from dust preserved in the paleoclimate record is possible through the application of isotope geochemistry. I will present a new method using stable titanium isotopes of Earth’s oldest presently known rocks to glean information about the geodynamic setting these rocks formed in. I will then pivot to a dust record preserved in ice from the last interglacial period to explore whether sediment transport and composition can be used to infer past ice sheet extent.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Linguistics Graduate Student Colloquium
DESCRIPTION:Linguistics graduate students Jian Zhu and Yourdanis Sedarous will present their research.\n\nJian Zhu will present \"The structure of online social networks modulates the rate of lexical change\"\n\nABSTRACT\nNew words are regularly introduced to communities\,  yet not all of these words persist in a community's lexicon.  Among all factors contributing to lexical change\,  we focus on the understudied effect of social networks. We conduct a large-scale analysis of over 80k neologisms in 4420 online communities across a decade. Using  Poisson regression and survival analysis\, our study demonstrates that the community's network structure plays a significant role in lexical change. Apart from overall size\,  properties including dense connections\, the lack of local clusters\, and more external contacts promote lexical innovation and retention. Unlike offline communities\, these topic-based communities do not experience strong lexical leveling despite increased contact but accommodate more niche words.   Our work provides support for a sociolinguistic hypothesis that the lexical change is partially shaped by the structure of the underlying network but also uncovers findings specific to online communities.\n \nYourdanis will present \"Investigating the extent of shared syntactic structures in the grammar of bilinguals\"\n\nABSTRACT\nThe present study investigates to what extent syntactic and semantic representations are shared between a bilingual’s languages\, specifically when these structures overlap in varying degrees across those languages. In this talk\, I focus on the bilingual knowledge and use of long-distance dependencies (e.g constituent questions) in Egyptian Arabic-English bilinguals. The results of a bilingual corpus analysis suggest that some structures of English trigger repetition of the same structure in the switch to Egyptian Arabic\, while the results of an acceptability judgement task investigating code-switched LDDs suggest that speakers’ dominance of their two or more languages affects their sensitivity to illicit sentences in partially convergent structures. A third experiment is proposed to further test to what extent structures are shared.

SUMMARY:Livestream / Virtual:Ken Fischer and Wynton Marsalis: Everybody In\, Nobody Out
DESCRIPTION:Exploring community connection through the performing arts\, UMS President Emeritus Ken Fischer and jazz musician Wynton Marsalis come together in a conversation moderated by Lisa Richards Toney\, president and CEO of the Association of Performing Arts Professionals.\n\nMarsalis wrote the introduction to Fischer&#39\;s book\, Everybody in\, Nobody Out (Michigan Publishing\, 2020)\, which offers a reflection on the power of the performing arts to engage and enrich communities — not by handing down cultural enrichment from on high\, but by meeting communities where they live and helping them preserve cultural heritage\, incubate talent\, and find ways to make community voices heard. In this talk\, Fischer and Marsalis will also discuss the important relationship between presenter and artist in moving the artist&#39\;s work forward.\n\nKen Fischer is President Emeritus of the University Musical Society (UMS) of the University of Michigan (U-M)\, a position he held from June 1\, 1987 to June 30\, 2017. UMS\, an independent multidisciplinary performing arts presenter with a long and deep affiliation with U-M\, is in the center of the Ann Arbor campus and offers 60-90 concerts each season\, performed in up to nine University and community venues. On September 10\, 2015\, Fischer accepted the 2014 National Medal of Arts on behalf of UMS from President Obama at the White House. UMS is the first university presenter to receive the National Medal of Arts\, which is the highest award given to artists and arts patrons by the United States government. Under Fischer’s leadership UMS greatly expanded and diversified its programming and its audiences\; deepened its engagement with the University and southeast Michigan communities\; created exemplary partnerships with leading corporations\, arts organizations\, educational institutions\, and community organizations\; and received significant endowment grants awarded by the leading foundations in the arts. In December 2019\, Fischer received an honorary Doctor of Fine Arts from the University of Michigan.\n\nWynton Marsalis is a world-renowned trumpeter\, bandleader and composer\, and a leading advocate of American culture. He presently serves as Managing and Artistic Director of Jazz at Lincoln Center and Director of Jazz Studies at The Juilliard School. Born in New Orleans\, Louisiana in 1961\, Marsalis began his classical training on trumpet at age 12\, entered The Juilliard School at age 17\, and soon thereafter joined Art Blakey and the Jazz Messengers. He recorded more than 103 jazz and classical recordings\, which have won nine GRAMMY® awards. In 1983\, he became the first and only artist to win both classical and jazz GRAMMYs® in the same year\, repeating the distinction the following year. Today\, Wynton is the only artist ever to win Grammy Awards® in five consecutive years (1983-1987). In 1997\, Wynton became the first jazz artist to be awarded the prestigious Pulitzer in Music for his oratorio Blood on the Fields. Marsalis has received honorary doctorates from over 25 of America’s top academic institutions including Columbia\, Harvard\, Howard\, Princeton and Yale. In 2001\, he was appointed Messenger of Peace by United Nations Secretary-General Kofi Annan. In 2005 Wynton received The National Medal of Arts\, the highest award given to artists by the United States government.\n\nLisa Richards Toney is the President & CEO of the Association of Performing Arts Professionals. Richards Toney brings more than 20 years of experience leading a range of small and large arts and humanities organizations\, managing change and building stability. Most recently she served as the Executive Director of the Abramson Scholarship Foundation\, and prior to that\, as the Interim Executive Director and Deputy Director of the DC Commission on the Arts and Humanities. She was also the first Executive Director of the Debbie Allen Dance Academy and Director of Literature to Life for The American Place Theatre. She currently serves on the boards of Performing Arts Alliance and Mosaic Theatre Company of DC\, co-chair of the Jack and Jill DC Chapter Jumoke Black History Festival\, and on the Advisory Board of the American University Graduate Program in Arts Administration. She holds an M.A. in educational theater from NYU with coursework in arts administration and a B.A. as a presidential scholar from Spelman College.\n\nThis event is co-presented by PBS Books and Detroit Public Television\, with support from UMS and the Association of Performing Arts Professionals.\n\nHow to WatchAll events will be webcast on Fridays at 8pm (ET) at http://pennystampsevents.org and https://dptv.org/pennystamps.

SUMMARY:Film Screening:Korean Cinema NOW | Kim Ji-young: Born 1982/ 82년생 김지영
DESCRIPTION:Access the film through the Michigan Theater here (customer pre-registration required): https://www.michtheater.org/2021-korean-cinema-now/\n\n2019 | 118 Minutes | Kim Do-young\n\nFree | Open to the public | In Korean with English subtitles\n\n“… I was also braced for a stereotypically shallow portrait of an identikit tyrant/workaholic/drunken/disengaged husband\, either ill-equipped or unwilling to address the problems right in front of him. As the title makes clear\, this is the story of one woman\, Kim Ji-young\, whose survival in an institutionally sexist world could surely only be hindered\, not helped\, by her spouse\; emotionally stunted male portraits are as sadly common on screen as they are pathetically prevalent in real life. In short\, I was ready for my gender to be held up to uncomfortable scrutiny – for masculinity to take another much deserved\, but all too familiar\, beating.\n\nInstead I was offered something I never expected from a mainstream drama blockbuster\, a character I could relate to in an almost painful way. As a cohabiting male in my mid-thirties squirming to define a man’s role in 2019\, I wasn’t just gifted a window into my partner’s struggles\, but a portrait of the everyday societal pressures undermining my own earnest efforts to be the model\, modern man.” –Rob Garratt\, SCMP STYLE\n\nKorean Cinema NOW 2021 will be presented through a virtual format. Attendees should visit the Michigan Theater website to register for the film on the screening dates.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:For Your Eyes Only
DESCRIPTION:Please Note: This exhibition is designed to be viewed through the gallery window on Thayer St.\n\nYasmine Nasser Diaz is the 2021 Efroymson Emerging Artist at the Institute for the Humanities.\n\nFor Your Eyes Only is the latest iteration of multidisciplinary artist Yasmine Nasser Diaz’s bedroom installation. At first glance\, the constructed space is a shimmering homage to the bedroom disco—a sanctuary for uninhibited dance and self-expression. It has also become the setting from which many personal videos are made and shared widely on social media\, where platforms such as Instagram and TikTok have blurred the boundary between public and private. Projected into the space is a montage of casual videos shared by female-identifying and non-binary persons of SWANA* origin dancing solo in their rooms. To some\, the videos may seem innocent and innocuous\, but they can also be seen as acts of defiance that assert the autonomy of bodies that have been surveilled\, scrutinized\, and censored throughout history. Alongside these intimate moments is a separate reel showing political figures and protest movements from the SWANA region. The images demonstrate the fluctuating attitudes and regulations impacting human rights and freedoms based on gender\, and exemplify how—whether we are physically at a protest or sharing our physicality in virtual spaces—our bodies are engaged in some level of risk.\n*Southwest Asian/North African\n\nThis project is supported by a grant from the Efroymson Family Fund.

SUMMARY:Film Screening:Korean Cinema NOW | Kim Ji-young: Born 1982/ 82년생 김지영
DESCRIPTION:Access the film through the Michigan Theater here (customer pre-registration required): https://www.michtheater.org/2021-korean-cinema-now/\n\n2019 | 118 Minutes | Kim Do-young\n\nFree | Open to the public | In Korean with English subtitles\n\n“… I was also braced for a stereotypically shallow portrait of an identikit tyrant/workaholic/drunken/disengaged husband\, either ill-equipped or unwilling to address the problems right in front of him. As the title makes clear\, this is the story of one woman\, Kim Ji-young\, whose survival in an institutionally sexist world could surely only be hindered\, not helped\, by her spouse\; emotionally stunted male portraits are as sadly common on screen as they are pathetically prevalent in real life. In short\, I was ready for my gender to be held up to uncomfortable scrutiny – for masculinity to take another much deserved\, but all too familiar\, beating.\n\nInstead I was offered something I never expected from a mainstream drama blockbuster\, a character I could relate to in an almost painful way. As a cohabiting male in my mid-thirties squirming to define a man’s role in 2019\, I wasn’t just gifted a window into my partner’s struggles\, but a portrait of the everyday societal pressures undermining my own earnest efforts to be the model\, modern man.” –Rob Garratt\, SCMP STYLE\n\nKorean Cinema NOW 2021 will be presented through a virtual format.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:For Your Eyes Only
DESCRIPTION:Please Note: This exhibition is designed to be viewed through the gallery window on Thayer St.\n\nYasmine Nasser Diaz is the 2021 Efroymson Emerging Artist at the Institute for the Humanities.\n\nFor Your Eyes Only is the latest iteration of multidisciplinary artist Yasmine Nasser Diaz’s bedroom installation. At first glance\, the constructed space is a shimmering homage to the bedroom disco—a sanctuary for uninhibited dance and self-expression. It has also become the setting from which many personal videos are made and shared widely on social media\, where platforms such as Instagram and TikTok have blurred the boundary between public and private. Projected into the space is a montage of casual videos shared by female-identifying and non-binary persons of SWANA* origin dancing solo in their rooms. To some\, the videos may seem innocent and innocuous\, but they can also be seen as acts of defiance that assert the autonomy of bodies that have been surveilled\, scrutinized\, and censored throughout history. Alongside these intimate moments is a separate reel showing political figures and protest movements from the SWANA region. The images demonstrate the fluctuating attitudes and regulations impacting human rights and freedoms based on gender\, and exemplify how—whether we are physically at a protest or sharing our physicality in virtual spaces—our bodies are engaged in some level of risk.\n*Southwest Asian/North African\n\nThis project is supported by a grant from the Efroymson Family Fund.

Lonely\, reserved\, and stuck in a dysfunctional household among her frequently quarrelling parents (Seung-Yeon Lee and In-gi Jeong)\, her troublemaking sister Su-hee (Su-yeon Park)\, and bully of a brother Dae-hoon (Sang-yeon Sohn)\, eighth-grader Eun-hee seems to move through life involuntarily\, like a bird with a pair of broken wings. And yet\, she still copes with routine neglect behind a youthful shield of resilience — Kim slowly lays bare Eun-hee’s toughened spirit from a minimalist and acutely feminine perspective.” –Tomris Laffly\, Variety\n\nKorean Cinema NOW 2021 will be presented through a virtual format. Attendees should visit the Michigan Theater website to register for the film on the screening dates.

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.

SUMMARY:Presentation:Clinical Science Brown Bag:  Event-related potentials during affective response inhibition in individuals with bipolar I disorder & schizophrenia
DESCRIPTION:Abstract: \nIndividuals with bipolar I disorder and psychotic disorders experience difficulties with executive control\, relative to healthy individuals without a psychiatric diagnosis. Prior research suggests that impairments in response inhibition\, a subcomponent of executive control\, contribute to clinical symptoms and adverse outcomes. Alterations in event-related potentials (ERPs) elicited during response inhibition tasks (e.g. go/no-go) hold promise for informing shared and disorder-specific neural and cognitive mechanisms of these disorders. The current study examines the N200 and P300 ERPs during an emotional face go/no-go task in healthy individuals and individuals diagnosed with bipolar I disorder\, schizoaffective disorder\, or schizophrenia. Findings can inform similarities and differences across these disorders as well as targeted intervention to improve inhibitory control. Background\, methodology\, preliminary results\, next directions\, and implications will be discussed.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Fight the Tower: Asian American Women Scholars’ Resistance and Renewal in the Academy Book Talk with Editors
DESCRIPTION:Join us for a conversation with Asian American Studies Professors\, Dr. Wei Ming Dariotis (San Francisco  State University) and Dr. Kieu-Linh Caroline Valverde (University of California\, Davis)\, about their book  Fight the Tower: Asian American Women Scholars’ Resistance and Renewal in the Academy (Rutgers University Press\, 2019). Moderated by Prof. Emily P. Lawsin (University of Michigan)  \n\nABOUT THE BOOK: \nAsian American women scholars experience shockingly low rates of tenure and promotion because of the particular ways they are marginalized by the intersectionalities of race and gender in academia. Although Asian American studies critics have long since debunked the model minority myth that constructs Asian Americans as the ideal academic subject\, university administrators still treat Asian American women in academia as though they will simply show up and shut up.  Consequently\, because silent complicity is expected\, power-holders will punish and oppress Asian  American women severely when they question or critique the system. However\, change is in the air.  Fight the Tower is a continuation of the Fight the Tower movement\, which supports women standing up for their rights to claim their earned place in academia and to work for positive change for all within academic institutions. The essays provide powerful portraits\, reflections\, and analyses of a population often rendered invisible by the lies that sustain intersectional injustices in order to operate an oppressive system. https://www.rutgersuniversitypress.org/fight-the-tower/9781978806368\n \nBios: \nDr. Kieu Linh Caroline Valverde is an associate professor of Asian American Studies and the founding director of the New Viet Nam Studies Initiative at the University of California\, Davis.  She is the author of Transnationalizing Viet Nam: Community\, Culture\, and Politics in the  Diaspora\, co-founder of the social justice movement\, Fight the Tower\, and co-editor of Fight the  Tower: Asian American Women Scholars’ Resistance and Renewal in the Academy. \n\nDr. Wei Ming Dariotis is a professor of Asian American Studies at San Francisco State University.  She is co-editor of War Baby/Love Child: Mixed Race Asian American Art and Fight the  Tower: Asian American Women Scholars’ Resistance and Renewal in the Academy\, and co-author of the definition of critical mixed race studies.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Islam\, Judaism\, and Decoloniality with Santiago Slabodsky and Sanober Umar
DESCRIPTION:In this seminar on Islam\, Judaism\, and decoloniality\, Santiago Slabodsky and Sanober Umar suggest some paths towards disrupting/decentering (Eurocentric) intellectual epistemic hegemonies in the broadly defined fields of Jewish Studies and Islamic/Muslim Studies. Together\, they will reflect on how we can draw on Southern epistemologies to broaden the horizon of Jewish and Muslim studies. In particular\, Professor Slabodsky\, the author of Decolonial Judaism\, connects Jewish history and thought with the histories and presents of anti-colonial and decolonial struggles\, thus exploring what a decolonial Judaism would look like in the twenty-first century. Similarly\, Professor Umar\, who is writing a book on the histories and global politics of \"racing\" and gendering Islam\, seeks to complicate and decolonize our ideas of the \"Muslim World\,\" specifically from a Global South/Indian Muslim perspective\, foregrounding caste\, racialization\, and gender.\n\nSantiago Slabodsky is the Robert and Florence Kaufman Endowed Chair in Jewish Studies and Associate Professor of Religion at Hofstra University. He writes about intercultural encounters between Jewish and Global South social theories and political movements. His book Decolonial Judaism: Triumphal Failures of Barbaric Thinking received the 2017 Frantz Fanon Outstanding Book Award from the Caribbean Philosophical Association. His research interests include Jewish thought and culture\, colonialism and decoloniality\, sociology of knowledge\, Latin American\, North African\, and Middle Eastern histories\, religion and politics\, inter-religious conversations\, Jewish-Muslim dialogue\, critical theories of religion and society\, and race and globalization.\n\nSanober Umar is Assistant Professor in the Department of Politics at York University. Her current work explores the relationship (and critical distinctions) between caste and racial hierarchies\, and how these entanglements-along with gender and class dynamics-inform the figure of the Muslim in Indian and (neoliberal) world politics. For her upcoming project\, Dr. Umar is investigating the histories and global politics of \"racing\" and gendering Islam as religion including mainstream and academic discursive productions of a universalized and flexible \"Muslim World\".\n\nAdvance Registration Required: https://umich.zoom.us/meeting/register/tJYsdumgqTwsGdAYqZxPsITs8rYl-kwkmQ0k

SUMMARY:Presentation:Developmental Brown Bag:  Social Neuroscience of Racial Bias
DESCRIPTION:Currently and historically\, there exists an inequitable and unfair division of burdens and rewards based on social group membership.  Major barriers that contribute to these disparities include prejudice and stereotyping.  In this talk\, I will focus on factors that give rise to these disparities and potential mechanisms for intervention\, drawing from research in affective science\, social psychology\, and neuroscience.  Using EEG\, I investigate the time course of intergroup impression formation\, providing evidence that individuals process social group membership quickly even when other socially relevant information is available.  Next\, I discuss intergroup decision-making\, demonstrating that individuals punish negative behavior of minority members even when doing so comes at a personal cost.  Given that social group membership influences impression formation and our decisions about others\, it becomes paramount to address potential ways to mitigate intergroup disparities.  To this end\, I will review my research exploring promising intervention techniques aimed at diminishing negative intergroup evaluations.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:HEP-Astro Seminar | Top Quark Production With Heavy Bosons
DESCRIPTION:Please contact Beth Demkowski\, demkowsk@umich.edu for Zoom link.\n\nThe Large Hadron Collider (LHC) is the worlds highest energy particle accelerator. With intense proton beams colliding at very high energies and high rates\,  the LHC is effectively a “top quark factory” that allows for the precise measurement of  properties of the top quark. With the large LHC data\, now it is also possible to measure rare processes involving top-quarks. Processes like top anti-top pair production along with other particles\, for example Higgs boson or the  electroweak force carriers W/Z has been observed at the LHC. Precise measurement of these processes have implications on the Standard Model of particle physics and even in cosmology. Recent results from the measurement of these rare top quark processes will be discussed in this talk. \n

SUMMARY:Presentation:MIDAS Seminar Series Presents: Vicki Bogan\, Economics and Management\, Cornell University
DESCRIPTION:We provide empirical evidence that visceral factors affect financial risk taking by showing that exposure to mass shootings alters mutual fund managers’ risk taking decisions. Funds that are exposed to mass shootings subsequently decrease risk relative to their peers. The effect that we document is temporary\, lasting approximately one quarter before reverting to normal levels and is strongest among managers with demographics shown to express greater fear from mass shootings. Together with the literature on laboratory studies that show that market downturns induce fear\, our findings suggest that fear could exacerbate variation in risk taking\, generating the highly volatile countercyclical risk premiums shown to exist in markets.\n\nBio:\n\nVicki Bogan’s research interests are in the areas of financial economics\, behavioral finance\, and applied microeconomics centering on issues involving investment decision making behavior and financial markets. She explores questions relating to investment decision making (corporate and individual) and household portfolio allocation with the goal of shedding light on how to better model observed behavior.\n\nBogan has published numerous journal articles and book chapters including a book chapter on “Household Investment Decisions\,” in Investor Behavior: The Psychology of Financial Planning and Investing. Bogan’s research has received considerable media attention including radio interviews and coverage in Forbes.com\, the Wall Street Journal website\, NPR’s Marketplace Tech\, PsychologyToday.com\, and the Harvard Business Review Blog. She also has been featured on the PBS News Hour – Paul Solman’s Making Sense\, the Lou Hutt Show on Sirius XM radio\, and Knowledge@Wharton on Sirius XM radio.\n\nBogan currently serves as Co-Editor for Financial Planning Review. She is the founder and director for the Institute for Behavioral and Household Finance. She also worked as a consultant for Hartford Funds Management Group\, Inc.\n\nProf. Bogan teaches finance courses for master’s and undergraduate students in the Dyson School of Cornell University’s SC Johnson College of Business. She has received two outstanding educator awards and the SUNY Chancellor’s Award for Excellence in Teaching.\n\nBogan holds a Sc.B. degree in Applied Mathematics and Economics from Brown University\, an M.B.A. in Finance and Strategic Management from the Wharton School of the University of Pennsylvania\, an M.A. in Economics from Brown University\, and a Ph.D. in Economics from Brown University. She also has held a visiting fellow appointment at Princeton University.

SUMMARY:Livestream / Virtual:Perspectives on Contemporary Korea 2020-21 | South Korean Film Industry Conference
DESCRIPTION:Register for the conference here:\nhttps://myumi.ch/yK21R\n\nSouth Korean cinema provides one of the most striking case studies of non-Western cinematic success in the age of the neoliberal world order\, in which Hollywood dominates the global movie consumer’s heart\, mind\, and soul. Against the onslaught of US products in the world’s media marketplace\, South Korean cinema has successfully defended itself. In 2001\, South Korea became the first film industry in recent history to reclaim its domestic market from Hollywood. In 2006\, local films had a 67 percent market share—the highest such figure in the world except for the US and India—and they have continued to maintain a market share of around 50 percent in the 2010s (52 percent in 2019). Admissions per capita in 2019 also reached 4.37\, up from 1.1 in 1998 and 2.92 in 2010\, the highest around the globe\, when it was 3.5 in the U.S. The number of screens in Korea has soared\, from 511 in 1997 to 3\,079 in 2019. Based on the increasing numbers of moviegoers and domestic films produced\, South Korea has become one of the world’s major film markets (ranked 5th in 2020). Adding to this success\, the high-quality South Korean local product has flowed outward to global film markets to connect with international audiences in commercial cinemas\, in art theaters\, and at major international film festivals. Park Chan-wook’s Oldboy (2003) received the Grand Prix at the Cannes International Film Festival. Hong Sang-soo had great success in Cannes\, Berlin\, and Locarno with Hahaha (2010)\, Right Now\, Wrong Then (2015)\, and On the Beach at Night Alone (2017). Other breakthrough auteurs\, art-house and genre-bending specialists alike\, followed: Lee Chang-dong\, Im Sang-soo\, Kim Jee-woon\, Ryoo Seung-wan and Kim Ki-duk. Bong Joon-ho’s Parasite marked the culmination of South Korean cinema’s global success. Parasite became the first foreign-language film to win Best Picture at the Oscars (2020)\, and swept other major awards including Best Director\, Screenplay\, and International Feature.\n\nIn English-language academic circles\, likewise\, interest in South Korean cinema as a serious scholarly subject has been growing exponentially. The evolution of South Korean cinema scholarship has been noteworthy. Such scholars as Isolde Standish\, David James\, Rob Wilson\, Kyung Hyun Kim\, Soyoung Kim\, Paul Willemen\, and Kathleen McHugh initially ignited the field of South Korean cinema studies and\, almost simultaneously\, two monographs followed in the UK and US: Hyangjin Lee’s Contemporary Korean Cinema: Culture\, Identity and Politics (2000) and Kyung Hyun Kim’s The Remasculinization of Korean Cinema (2004). Since then\, the field has witnessed a blossoming of South Korean cinema studies in the form of monographs\, edited volumes\, and special issues.  Although the field has recently greeted many significant scholarly achievements that have extensively discussed South Korea’s cinematic legacies\, it is still difficult to find scholarly articles on pre-1990s South Korean films – and almost none are available on films from the 1970s and 80s. There is also a shortage of articles on individual films and directors\, and no systematically structured book-length study on the South Korean film industry has been published as of the time this conference is being prepared.\n\nThe South Korean Film Industry conference will bring together scholars from major sites of Korean film and media Studies research in the Anglophone world (including Canada\, U.S.\, U.K.\, and Australia) with scholars from Korea and Singapore for an interdisciplinary dialogue on the diversity and complexity of the South Korean film industry. This conference aims to showcase innovative scholarly work examining wide-ranging coverage of subjects such as the production\, exhibition and distribution of South Korean cinema\, state policy and censorship\, coproduction\, film festivals and cinephilia\, independent cinema\, and Hallyu and the global reception of South Korean cinema. \n\nFull conference details and schedule available at:\nhttps://myumi.ch/1p0b3\n\nMonday\, April 12\n\n7:00-7:10pm       Welcome Remarks\n7:10-8:10pm       Panel 1: History\, Industry\, and Policy\n\nChair: Sangjoon LEE (Nanyang Technological University)\n\nSouth Korea’s Film Policy (1993-2020)\nCHO Junhyoung (Korean Film Archive)\n\nEvolution of the Korean Film Industry in the Hallyu Era\nDal Yong Jin (Simon Fraser University)\n\n8:20 – 9:30pm     Keynote Lecture\n\nKIM Hong-Joon (Korea National University of Arts)\n\nModerator: Sangjoon LEE (Nanyang Technological University)\n\nIf there is anything we can do to make this event accessible to you\, please contact us at ncks.info@umich.edu. Please be aware that advance notice is necessary as some accommodations may require more time for the university to arrange.

SUMMARY:Film Screening:Korean Cinema NOW | House of Hummingbird/ 벌새
DESCRIPTION:Access the film through the Michigan Theater here (customer pre-registration required): https://www.michtheater.org/2021-korean-cinema-now/\n\n2018 | 138 Minutes | Bora Kim\n\nFree | Open to the public | In Korean with English subtitles\n\n“There is a certain tentativeness to the 14-year-old Eun-hee (Ji-hu Park) in writer-director Bora Kim’s sure-handed feature debut “House of Hummingbird\,” a tender yet somewhat underpowered coming-of-age film set in the Seoul of 1994. Lonely\, reserved\, and stuck in a dysfunctional household among her frequently quarrelling parents (Seung-Yeon Lee and In-gi Jeong)\, her troublemaking sister Su-hee (Su-yeon Park)\, and bully of a brother Dae-hoon (Sang-yeon Sohn)\, eighth-grader Eun-hee seems to move through life involuntarily\, like a bird with a pair of broken wings. And yet\, she still copes with routine neglect behind a youthful shield of resilience — Kim slowly lays bare Eun-hee’s toughened spirit from a minimalist and acutely feminine perspective.” –Tomris Laffly\, Variety\n\nKorean Cinema NOW 2021 will be presented through a virtual format. Attendees should visit the Michigan Theater website to register for the film on the screening dates. Once registered with a customer account\, attendees will receive a confirmation with a link to view the film. This video link will only be available for 72 hours from the time you press play.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:For Your Eyes Only
DESCRIPTION:Please Note: This exhibition is designed to be viewed through the gallery window on Thayer St.\n\nYasmine Nasser Diaz is the 2021 Efroymson Emerging Artist at the Institute for the Humanities.\n\nFor Your Eyes Only is the latest iteration of multidisciplinary artist Yasmine Nasser Diaz’s bedroom installation. At first glance\, the constructed space is a shimmering homage to the bedroom disco—a sanctuary for uninhibited dance and self-expression. It has also become the setting from which many personal videos are made and shared widely on social media\, where platforms such as Instagram and TikTok have blurred the boundary between public and private. Projected into the space is a montage of casual videos shared by female-identifying and non-binary persons of SWANA* origin dancing solo in their rooms. To some\, the videos may seem innocent and innocuous\, but they can also be seen as acts of defiance that assert the autonomy of bodies that have been surveilled\, scrutinized\, and censored throughout history. Alongside these intimate moments is a separate reel showing political figures and protest movements from the SWANA region. The images demonstrate the fluctuating attitudes and regulations impacting human rights and freedoms based on gender\, and exemplify how—whether we are physically at a protest or sharing our physicality in virtual spaces—our bodies are engaged in some level of risk.\n*Southwest Asian/North African\n\nThis project is supported by a grant from the Efroymson Family Fund.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:2021 David Noel Freedman Seminar
DESCRIPTION:This seminar will provide an opportunity for students to learn from Dr. Davidson in a smaller setting and ask questions about issues related to colonialism\, museum collecting\, and the Bible.\n\nPlease register here: https://umich.zoom.us/meeting/register/tJctcuCsqDgvGdAwbZXvzSl20icACdwirItc \n\n\nObjects form the critical deposits of museums and archives. This becomes obviously true in the case of biblical museums and archives that desperately rely upon material remains to bring the Bible to life. These archives have been central to Biblical Studies and the maintenance of the Bible as a product of imperial modernity. The Bible as a text and archive plays a critical role in the production and maintenance of the narratives of racial capitalism\, a central aspect of Western modernity. By examining the language and ephemera of contemporary readers\, who have been racialized by imperial logics that produce Bible translations and narrativize objects in archives\, this presentation situates the geography of contemporary racialized readers as the site from which to develop an archive of the Bible. Local geographies\, both the specific geography of the context of the Bible and the geography of a modern reader\, are seen as productive challenges to the universalizing myths of modernity. Greater attention to contextual languages and experiences offer opportunities to unmask the cultural and geographical boundedness of stories\, objects\, and lives that form the core deposit of the Bible.

SUMMARY:Presentation:Biopsychology Colloquium:  Dissecting dopamine function in stress-related sleep disturbances
DESCRIPTION:Proper sleep is essential for well-being\, yet it is disrupted in many neuropsychiatric conditions\, including major depressive disorder. Major depression is a debilitating psychiatric disease and among the leading causes of disability worldwide. Sleep disturbances are highly prevalent in individuals suffering from depression\, and it is currently understood that the strong association between sleep disturbances and depression stems from a common mechanistic origin. The ventral tegmental area (VTA) is a potential key brain structure to link sleep dysregulation and depression–as the VTA has a central role in sleep/wake regulation\, and its activity is altered during wakefulness in depression. Nonetheless\, it remains unresolved if activity in VTA neurons is altered during sleep in depression\, and if sleep disturbances during depression are inducing depression-related symptoms. My project aims to fill this knowledge gap. My core hypothesis is that chronic alterations in VTA neuron activity during sleep induce sleep/wake disturbances\, which result in depression-related symptoms. I am currently testing this hypothesis by defining the alterations in VTA dopaminergic neuron activity during sleep in a mouse model for depression. During this talk\, I will discuss my preliminary findings and future research directions.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:CREES/Ford U.S.-Russia Future Leaders Professional Development Workshop. Participatory Development in the Kyrgyz Republic: A Simulation and Discussion
DESCRIPTION:Registration for this event has closed.\n\nFrom 2014-2019\, the US Agency for International Development implemented a project in the Kyrgyz Republic to strengthen agricultural productivity and address food insecurity\, primarily among agricultural farming families. One of the first steps the project took in 2014 was to engage with local stakeholders to decide which agricultural value chains to target\, and what type of farm-level assistance would be most effective.\n   \nDuring the workshop\, students will each take on the role of a key stakeholder and participate in a community deliberation activity to help the project make these decisions. Students will participate in a variety of participation tools to spur brainstorming and information sharing\, generate ideas\, resolve conflict\, and make group decisions. After the simulation\, students will have a discussion about the exercise\, reflecting on the experience of being a participant\; how participation can unearth previously unidentified problems\, solutions\, and critical contextual factors\; compare the tools and approaches applied to other types of participation tools and approaches\; and the role of community power dynamics in participation activities.\n   \nAmy Harris\, a post-doctoral fellow at the Ford School of Public Policy\, will lead this workshop. Amy merges both experience as a former foreign aid implementation professional working on USAID and World Bank projects\, and academic expertise in foreign aid contracting and participatory development. Amy holds a PhD in Public Policy and Management from the University of Washington.\n   \nParticipating students must agree to complete select readings prior to the workshop session and to play an active role in the simulation\, as an assigned stakeholder. More details will be provided upon registration. Students are also required to attend the workshop session in its entirety. For those without a 1pm scheduling conflict\, Dr. Harris will continue her post-simulation debrief until 1:15pm (EDT).\n\n---\nIf there is anything we can do to make this event accessible to you\, please contact us. Please be aware that advance notice is necessary as some accommodations may require more time for the university to arrange. Contact crees@umich.edu.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Frankel Institute Event Series: Stranger Still: Translating Contemporary Poetry from Israel/Palestine
DESCRIPTION:Our final installment of the “Stranger Still” series features the poets Sheikha Hlewa and Yosefa Raz\, who will read selections of their poems and translations in Arabic and English. They will join series organizers Adriana X. Jacobs and Alex Moshkin in a conversation about their experiences as Arabic and English-language writers in Israel/Palestine and Raz’s English translations of Helawy’s Arabic poetry. \n\nSheikha Hussein Hlewa was born in Dhayl 'Araj\, an unrecognized Bedouin village outside of Haifa in 1968 and attended the Sisters of Nazareth School in Haifa. She later moved to Jaffa and studied for a BA and MA in Arabic and Hebrew literature at Tel Aviv University. An educator by profession\, Hlewa has worked as a teacher of Arabic and\, more recently\, as the educational program director for schools in East Jerusalem. Her poems and stories have been published online and in print in the Arab world. She is the author of the poetry collection Outside the Seasons I Learned How to Fly (2015\, خارج الفصول تعلّمت الطيران)\, and three short-story collections: The Ladies of Twilight (2015\, سيّدات العتمة)\, Windows are Spoiled Books (2016\, النوافذ كتب رديئة) and Order C345 (2018\, c345 الطلبيّة)\, which won the 2019 Almultaqa Prize in the short-story category and was translated into Hebrew by Ilana Hammerman as A Pause for Barking (Afik\, 2020). A new collection of poetry\, Maybe We’ll Need More than a Forest\, is forthcoming in an Arabic-Hebrew bilingual edition\, with Hebrew translations by the poet Rachel Peretz. She is currently working on her PhD on “Individual and Collective Concerns in Contemporary Palestinian Women’s Poetry” at Bar Ilan University.\n\nYosefa Raz is a poet\, translator\, and scholar. She is currently an assistant professor in the Department of English Language & Literature at the University of Haifa. She completed her PhD in the joint doctoral program in Jewish Studies at UC Berkeley and the Graduate Theological Union\, where she received the Goor Essay Prize in Jewish Studies and the Eisner Prize in poetry. Her poetry books include In Exchange for a Homeland\, and the chapbooks This Rumor of Darger’s Armies of Girls\, and All these years practicing while momentous events were happening all around. With Adriana X. Jacobs and Shachar Pinsker\, she translated Women’s Hebrew Poetry on American Shores\, focusing on the work of Anne Kleiman. Her translations of Tahel Frosh\, Ya’akov Biton (with Shaul Setter) and Sheikha Hlewa have appeared in The Ilanot Review\, Dibur\, World Literature Today\, and the Boston Review. Her poetry and essays have also appeared recently in Entropy\, Jacket2\, Guernica\, and the LA Review of Books. Her scholarship is focused on the often fraught transformation of prophecy into poetry\, and reflections on this topic can be read in articles published in the Walt Whitman Quarterly Review and Modern Language Quarterly\, and in a forthcoming book\, tentatively titled The Poetics of Prophecy.\n\nSheikha Hussein Hlewa’s photo credit: Sophie Snir Shaar\nYosefa Raz photo credit: Lydia Daniller\n\n\nRegistration Required: https://myumi.ch/0WnxZ

SUMMARY:Livestream / Virtual:LRCCS Noon Lecture Series | The Making of a Medium: Borrowing Views from Painting and Fiction in Early Modern Chinese Garden Design
DESCRIPTION:The notion that gardens might offer a private space\, apart from the larger public world and even family responsibilities\, dates to the middle Tang (late 8th-early 9th c.). Dr. Kile’s talk offers an introduction to the first two works in the Chinese tradition to consider the making of the garden itself as an art: Ji Cheng's Yuanye (Fashioning Gardens\, 1631-34) and Li Yu's Xianqing ouji (Leisure Notes\, 1671). Both men create a middle category between manual laborer and garden proprietor: that of the garden designer\, who\, they both argue\, is the true master of the garden. The work of raising garden design to the status of an expressive art\, rather than mere craft\, followed the model by which literati painting had been elevated in status during the Song dynasty (960-1279)\, when literati borrowed from theories of poetry to argue that painting\, too\, could express the \"hills and valleys\" in their hearts.\n   \n   SE Kile is Assistant Professor in the Department of Asian Languages and Cultures at the University of Michigan. A specialist in Ming and Qing literature and culture\, Dr. Kile is finishing a book that theorizes early modern mediation and entrepreneurship through a synthesis of Li Yu's (1611-1680) cultural production.\n\nZoom webinar\; attendance requires registration: https://umich.zoom.us/webinar/register/WN_YJwm_w_JS_iHdY3mpQLHZg

SUMMARY:Livestream / Virtual:Reforming Remembrance
DESCRIPTION:Dutch artist Hans van Houwelingen will reflect on his ongoing research on commemorative monuments. Apart from the hardware of monuments\, he explores how to reform the practice of commemoration itself. Van Houwelingen and the Indonesian artist Iswanto Hartono (Ruangrupa) are currently collaborating on a research project to investigate both the presence and the absence of monuments in colonial locations. Among his case studies are monuments in Indonesia removed after 1945 Independence. The Van Heutsz monument in Jakarta\, designed by the Dutch architect Willem Marinus Dudok\, was destroyed just after the Independence of Indonesia. Meanwhile\, the Van Heutsz monument in Amsterdam exists today as the Indie Nederland Monument. These and other monuments enter into the discussion of commemoration and its erasure.\n\nBio: Hans van Houwelingen (Harlingen 1957) attended Minerva Art Academy in Groningen (Netherlands) and at the Rijksakademie van Beeldende Kunsten in Amsterdam. His work is manifested in the form of interventions projects in public space\, exhibitions\, films\, lectures and publications\, in which he investigates the relations between art\, culture and politics. He publishes regularly in newspapers and magazines. The monograph STIFF Hans van Houwelingen vs. Public Art (Artimo\, 2004) offers an overview of his projects and texts and an extensive reflection on his work. The publication Update describes the permanent update of the Lorentzmonument in Arnhem (NL) during the exhibition Sonsbeek 2008. In 2011 Undone (Jap Sam Books 2011) was published\, presenting nine critical reflections on three recent works. In 1988 Van Houwelingen won a Prix de Rome prize. He received The Queen Wilhelminaring oeuvre award in 2013. Since 2015 he is an honorary member of the Academy van Arts from the Royal Akademy of Science (KNAW). Hans van Houwelingen lives and works in Berlin and Amsterdam.\n\nOrganized by the Committee on Equity\, Department of History of Art and co-sponsored by the Museum Studies Program.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Economic History: Colonial institutions\, marriage markets\, and Africa's HIV epidemic: Evidence from Mozambique.
DESCRIPTION:Abstract:\nThree institutions organized much of colonial economic activity in sub-Saharan Africa: concessions of territory and population to companies\, labor reserves providing nearby employers with male temporary workers\, and colonial trade economies coercing peasants to produce agricultural exports. To make some of the first comparisons of these institutions’ short- and long-run impacts\, I exploit an arbitrary concession-labor reserve border in Mozambique. The concession was Africa’s longest lasting (1891-1942) and heavily restricted mobility\, while the labor reserve (1901-70s) was one of the most important\, sending one third of its men annually to work in South Africa (\"circular migrants\"). Colonial census data show that men in the concession before its abolition were half as likely to be circular migrants and boys were twice as likely to enroll in school\, but after it ended both outcomes converged. However\, even after the concession’s abolition\, marriage rates in the labor reserve were 10 to 25 percent higher and spousal age gaps may have been smaller. The likely explanation is the lasting social effects of nearly a century of circular migration. Consistent with the continuation of these patterns\, women’s HIV prevalence today is twice as high in the former concession while levels of economic development are similar.\n\n*To join the seminar\, please contact at econ.events@umich.edu

SUMMARY:Livestream / Virtual:You Don’t Belong Here: The Stories Our Systems Tell and Why We Have to Disrupt Them
DESCRIPTION:Many universities message extensively around their commitments about diversity\, equity\, and inclusion. These institutional assertions are often called into question\, though\, by the stories of members of the higher education community who continue to face marginalization and othering within their professional and educational spaces. This session centers around an embodied case study depicting one woman’s reflections on her experiences of higher education and her interactions with a range of systems that sent a persistent message that she didn’t belong\, that she would never truly be a part of her university community. Through session activities\, participants will consider how these messages manifest and why they continue to occur despite the extensive labor of individuals sincerely committed to advancing equity.\nThe theatrical portion of this session contains strong language. It includes explicit descriptions of racist and classist behaviors and the impact of systemic inequities on individuals and communities.\nThis workshop is designed for graduate students and postdoctoral fellows. For faculty and staff\, please contact RackhamEvents@umich.edu to see if we can accommodate your attendance.\nRegistration is required at https://myumi.ch/qgkM0.\nWe want to ensure full and equitable participation in our events. If an accommodation would promote your full participation in this event\, please follow the registration link to indicate your accommodation requirements. Please let us know as soon as possible in order to have adequate time\, preferably one week\, to arrange for your requested accommodations or an effective alternative.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Professor Gregory Dowd\, the Helen Hornbeck Tanner Collegiate Professorship in American Culture and History\, Inaugural Lecture
DESCRIPTION:Two iconic documents mark the achievement of formal independence for the United States: The Declaration of Independence (1776)\, in which the thirteen colonies manifested their determination to be free of Great Britain\, and the Treaty of Paris (1783)\, in which the British Crown finally recognized that freedom. This paper approaches the Declaration and the treaty negotiations from the standpoint of both rumor and Native American history.  The Declaration defames Native Americans. The Treaty claims vast Native lands for the United States without indigenous consent. Among the forces that produced these outcomes were deliberate anti-indigenous—and anti-British—deceptions\, or hoaxes\, or what we might call today “fake news.”  Benjamin Franklin\, signer of The Declaration and a leading treaty negotiator\, understood the workings of rumor and the power of misinformation\; he lied actively in his war-time efforts for the United States. This paper examines two hoaxes\, one the invention of settlers in the Smoky Mountains\, the other the invention of Franklin\, suggesting that \"fake news\" helped shape the two documents. What’s more\, this fake news\, and its circulation\, though aimed largely at the Crown\, profoundly reveals the deep colonial and imperial contempt for indigeneity.  \n\nNote: The lecture quotes anti-indigenous slurs.  It references a Pennsylvania militia attack on an indigenous community\, arguably the greatest atrocity of the Revolutionary War.\n\n\nPlease click the link below to join the webinar:\nhttps://umich.zoom.us/j/95027136566\nOr iPhone one-tap : \n    US: +13126266799\,\,95027136566#  or +16468769923\,\,95027136566# \nOr Telephone:\n    Dial(for higher quality\, dial a number based on your current location):\n        US: +1 312 626 6799  or +1 646 876 9923  or +1 301 715 8592  or +1 346 248 7799  or +1 669 900 6833  or +1 253 215 8782 \n        Canada: +1 647 558 0588  or +1 778 907 2071  or +1 204 272 7920  or +1 438 809 7799  or +1 587 328 1099  or +1 647 374 4685 \nWebinar ID: 950 2713 6566\n    International numbers available: https://umich.zoom.us/u/acM7CVpLVR\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: 950 2713 6566\n    SIP: 95027136566@zoomcrc.com

SUMMARY:Livestream / Virtual:Perspectives on Contemporary Korea 2020-21 | South Korean Film Industry Conference
DESCRIPTION:Register for the conference here:\nhttps://myumi.ch/yK21R\n\nSouth Korean cinema provides one of the most striking case studies of non-Western cinematic success in the age of the neoliberal world order\, in which Hollywood dominates the global movie consumer’s heart\, mind\, and soul. Against the onslaught of US products in the world’s media marketplace\, South Korean cinema has successfully defended itself. In 2001\, South Korea became the first film industry in recent history to reclaim its domestic market from Hollywood. In 2006\, local films had a 67 percent market share—the highest such figure in the world except for the US and India—and they have continued to maintain a market share of around 50 percent in the 2010s (52 percent in 2019). Admissions per capita in 2019 also reached 4.37\, up from 1.1 in 1998 and 2.92 in 2010\, the highest around the globe\, when it was 3.5 in the U.S. The number of screens in Korea has soared\, from 511 in 1997 to 3\,079 in 2019. Based on the increasing numbers of moviegoers and domestic films produced\, South Korea has become one of the world’s major film markets (ranked 5th in 2020). Adding to this success\, the high-quality South Korean local product has flowed outward to global film markets to connect with international audiences in commercial cinemas\, in art theaters\, and at major international film festivals. Park Chan-wook’s Oldboy (2003) received the Grand Prix at the Cannes International Film Festival. Hong Sang-soo had great success in Cannes\, Berlin\, and Locarno with Hahaha (2010)\, Right Now\, Wrong Then (2015)\, and On the Beach at Night Alone (2017). Other breakthrough auteurs\, art-house and genre-bending specialists alike\, followed: Lee Chang-dong\, Im Sang-soo\, Kim Jee-woon\, Ryoo Seung-wan and Kim Ki-duk. Bong Joon-ho’s Parasite marked the culmination of South Korean cinema’s global success. Parasite became the first foreign-language film to win Best Picture at the Oscars (2020)\, and swept other major awards including Best Director\, Screenplay\, and International Feature.\n\nIn English-language academic circles\, likewise\, interest in South Korean cinema as a serious scholarly subject has been growing exponentially. The evolution of South Korean cinema scholarship has been noteworthy. Such scholars as Isolde Standish\, David James\, Rob Wilson\, Kyung Hyun Kim\, Soyoung Kim\, Paul Willemen\, and Kathleen McHugh initially ignited the field of South Korean cinema studies and\, almost simultaneously\, two monographs followed in the UK and US: Hyangjin Lee’s Contemporary Korean Cinema: Culture\, Identity and Politics (2000) and Kyung Hyun Kim’s The Remasculinization of Korean Cinema (2004). Since then\, the field has witnessed a blossoming of South Korean cinema studies in the form of monographs\, edited volumes\, and special issues.  Although the field has recently greeted many significant scholarly achievements that have extensively discussed South Korea’s cinematic legacies\, it is still difficult to find scholarly articles on pre-1990s South Korean films – and almost none are available on films from the 1970s and 80s. There is also a shortage of articles on individual films and directors\, and no systematically structured book-length study on the South Korean film industry has been published as of the time this conference is being prepared.\n\nThe South Korean Film Industry conference will bring together scholars from major sites of Korean film and media Studies research in the Anglophone world (including Canada\, U.S.\, U.K.\, and Australia) with scholars from Korea and Singapore for an interdisciplinary dialogue on the diversity and complexity of the South Korean film industry. This conference aims to showcase innovative scholarly work examining wide-ranging coverage of subjects such as the production\, exhibition and distribution of South Korean cinema\, state policy and censorship\, coproduction\, film festivals and cinephilia\, independent cinema\, and Hallyu and the global reception of South Korean cinema. \n\nFull conference details and schedule available at:\nhttps://myumi.ch/1p0b3\n\nTuesday\, April 13\n\n7:00-8:00pm       Panel 2: Transformation of the South Korean Film Industry 1\n\nChair: Dal Yong JIN (Simon Fraser University)\n\nThe Korean Film Industry’s Ambivalent Relationship to the Studio System\nJason Bechervaise (Sungshil Cyber University) \n\nShort Film Productions in South Korea\nJulian Stringer (University of Nottingham)\n\n8:10-9:40pm       Industry Roundtable\n\nSpeakers:\nWON Dong-yeon (Producer\; Along with the Gods)\,\n\nPARK Eun-Kyung (Producer: A Taxi Driver)\,\n\nIM Soon-rye (Director: Little Forest)\,\n\nMIN Kyu-dong (Director: Herstory)\n\nModerator: HEO Chul (Nanyang Technological University\; Director of The Return)\n\nIf there is anything we can do to make this event accessible to you\, please contact us at ncks.info@umich.edu. Please be aware that advance notice is necessary as some accommodations may require more time for the university to arrange.

SUMMARY:Film Screening:Korean Cinema NOW | House of Hummingbird/ 벌새
DESCRIPTION:Access the film through the Michigan Theater here (customer pre-registration required): https://www.michtheater.org/2021-korean-cinema-now/\n\n2018 | 138 Minutes | Bora Kim\n\nFree | Open to the public | In Korean with English subtitles\n\n“There is a certain tentativeness to the 14-year-old Eun-hee (Ji-hu Park) in writer-director Bora Kim’s sure-handed feature debut “House of Hummingbird\,” a tender yet somewhat underpowered coming-of-age film set in the Seoul of 1994. Lonely\, reserved\, and stuck in a dysfunctional household among her frequently quarrelling parents (Seung-Yeon Lee and In-gi Jeong)\, her troublemaking sister Su-hee (Su-yeon Park)\, and bully of a brother Dae-hoon (Sang-yeon Sohn)\, eighth-grader Eun-hee seems to move through life involuntarily\, like a bird with a pair of broken wings. And yet\, she still copes with routine neglect behind a youthful shield of resilience — Kim slowly lays bare Eun-hee’s toughened spirit from a minimalist and acutely feminine perspective.” –Tomris Laffly\, Variety\n\nKorean Cinema NOW 2021 will be presented through a virtual format. Attendees should visit the Michigan Theater website to register for the film on the screening dates. Once registered with a customer account\, attendees will receive a confirmation with a link to view the film. This video link will only be available for 72 hours from the time you press play.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:For Your Eyes Only
DESCRIPTION:Please Note: This exhibition is designed to be viewed through the gallery window on Thayer St.\n\nYasmine Nasser Diaz is the 2021 Efroymson Emerging Artist at the Institute for the Humanities.\n\nFor Your Eyes Only is the latest iteration of multidisciplinary artist Yasmine Nasser Diaz’s bedroom installation. At first glance\, the constructed space is a shimmering homage to the bedroom disco—a sanctuary for uninhibited dance and self-expression. It has also become the setting from which many personal videos are made and shared widely on social media\, where platforms such as Instagram and TikTok have blurred the boundary between public and private. Projected into the space is a montage of casual videos shared by female-identifying and non-binary persons of SWANA* origin dancing solo in their rooms. To some\, the videos may seem innocent and innocuous\, but they can also be seen as acts of defiance that assert the autonomy of bodies that have been surveilled\, scrutinized\, and censored throughout history. Alongside these intimate moments is a separate reel showing political figures and protest movements from the SWANA region. The images demonstrate the fluctuating attitudes and regulations impacting human rights and freedoms based on gender\, and exemplify how—whether we are physically at a protest or sharing our physicality in virtual spaces—our bodies are engaged in some level of risk.\n*Southwest Asian/North African\n\nThis project is supported by a grant from the Efroymson Family Fund.

SUMMARY:Livestream / Virtual:CREES Noon Lecture. Poland and Hungary - Two Autocratic Attempts to Overthrow Liberal Democracy
DESCRIPTION:The Polish election results of 2015 seem to have brought Hungarian and Polish development into synchronicity again\, a congruence that has been apparent many times throughout history. At first glance\, it may appear that we are dealing with regimes of an identical nature\, especially taking into account the similarities of the authoritarian politics practiced by Jarosław Kaczyński (Prawo i Sprawiedliwość\, PiS) and Viktor Orbán (Fiatal Demokraták Szövetsége\, Fidesz)\, characterized by a tendency to eliminate autonomous social forces and control mechanisms\, as well as the application of similar ideological frames. But beneath the superficial similarities\, these attempts are aimed at establishing different types of autocratic regimes. Orbán’s regime\, which Dr. Magyar defines as a mafia state\, is built on the twin motivations of power centralization and the accumulation of personal and family wealth\; the instrument of its power is the adopted political family\, freed of the limitations posed by formal institutions. Kaczyński’s regime is better described as a conservative-autocratic experiment\, driven by ambitions of power and ideological inclinations. In this lecture\, Dr. Magyar will offer his comparative assessment of these two regimes.\n   \n   Bálint Magyar is a Research Fellow at the Central European University (CEU) Democracy Institute (since 2020)\, holding a University Doctoral degree in Political Economy (1980) from Eötvös Loránd University in Budapest. He has published and edited numerous books on post-communist mafia states since 2013. He was an Open Society Fellow carrying out comparative studies in this field (2015-2016)\, Hans Speier Visiting Professor at the New School (2017)\, Senior Fellow at the CEU Institute for Advanced Study (2018-2019)\, and Research Fellow at the Financial Research Institute (2010-2020). Formerly\, he was an activist of the Hungarian anti-communist dissident movement\, founder of the liberal party of Hungary (SZDSZ\, 1988)\, Member of the Hungarian Parliament (1990-2010)\, and Minister of Education (1996-1998\, 2002-2006).\n   \n   Registration is required for this Zoom webinar at:\nhttps://umich.zoom.us/webinar/register/WN_5likEdQMSwCKcWD4qbLTyg\n\nIf there is anything we can do to make this event accessible to you\, please contact us at crees@umich.edu.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:HET Brown Bag Seminar | Dark photons and the cosmic radiation background
DESCRIPTION:The dark photon is a well-motivated extension of the Standard Model which can mix with the regular photon. This mixing is enhanced whenever the dark photon mass matches the primordial plasma frequency\, leading to resonant conversions between photons and dark photons. These conversions can produce observable cosmological signatures\, including distortions to the cosmic radiation background. In this talk\, I will discuss a new analytic formalism for these conversions that can account for the inhomogeneous distribution of matter in our universe\, leading to new and revised limits on the mixing parameter of light dark photons derived from the COBE/FIRAS measurement of the cosmic microwave background spectrum. I will then describe some ongoing work on a dark sector model that can explain the longstanding ARCADE radio background excess through resonant conversions of dark photons.

SUMMARY:Presentation:Social Area Brown Bag:
DESCRIPTION:Ariana\n\nTitle:\nExamining witnesses’ backlash against the target’s response to gender microaggressions \n\nAbstract:\nResearch on witnessing microaggressions has found that people who witness gender microaggressions against a target subsequently evaluate the target more negatively (e.g.\, less competent). Relatedly\, previous work has found that when targets respond to or confront the microaggression\, their response is often criticized (e.g.\, they are seen as overreacting or troublemakers). In this talk\, I will present results from a pilot study that investigated witnesses’ criticism of a target’s response to gender microaggressions and whether that criticism predicted more negative evaluations about the target. I also examine whether the witness’ gender plays a role in the kinds of criticism given (e.g.\, should have defended herself\, took things personally) and in the evaluations they make (e.g.\, competence\, negative agency).\n\nDesiree\n\nTitle: \nAssessing Men’s Proclivity to Recognizing Subtle Gender Bias Against Women in STEM\n\nAbstract: \nWomen in Science\, Technology\, Engineering\, and Mathematics (STEM) frequently encounter gender bias (e.g.\, questioning of their STEM ability\, assignment to secretarial roles). Given the subtle and ambiguous nature of contemporary sexism\, people vary in their likelihood of recognizing subtly sexist interactions. Past research demonstrates that women are more sensitive to gender bias and more readily recognize it when it occurs. However\, there remains a dearth of research related to men’s experiences in witnessing bias. In the present research\, we ask: (1) what are the individual difference measures that contribute to men’s proclivity in recognizing subtle gender bias\, (2) what are the affective consequences of recognizing subtle gender bias during group tasks\, and (3) how do men’s affective states after witnessing subtle gender bias influence their interest in working with women in mixed-gendered groups? STEM-identified men read a fake transcript depicting a conversation between 3 STEM-identified college students (1 woman\, 2 men). Participants were exposed to a transcript in which a man demonstrates subtle gender bias against a woman. After reading the transcript\, participants completed measures related to their affect (state and collective)\, their impressions of the interaction (open and closed-ended)\, and behavioral measures related to the students in the transcript. Open-ended responses were coded to determine recognition of bias. Findings and implications for this work are discussed.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:IISS Book Workshop Series. \"Sainthood and Authority in Early Islam: Al-Ḥakīm al-Tirmidhī’s Theory of wilāya and the Reenvisioning of the Sunnī Caliphate\": Book Workshop with Professor Aiyub Palmer
DESCRIPTION:The IISS is pleased to announce a book workshop with Professor Aiyub Palmer (University of Kentucky) on his fascinating monograph \"Sainthood and Authority in Early Islam\".\n   \n   The Abstract:\n   In his book Aiyub Palmer recasts wilāya (\"sainthood\") in terms of Islamic authority and traces its development in both political and religious spheres up through the 3rd and 4th Islamic centuries. This book pivots around the ideas of al-Ḥakīm al-Tirmidhī\, the first Muslim theologian and mystic to write on the topic of wilāya.\n   \n   By looking at its structural roots in Arab and Islamic social organization\, Prof. Palmer has reframed the discussion about sainthood in early Islam to show how it relates more broadly to other forms of authority in Islam. This book not only looks anew at the influential ideas of al-Tirmidhī but also challenges current modes of thought around the nature of authority in Islamicate societies.\n\nRegister at https://umich.zoom.us/meeting/register/tJIldeugpjkqGdH8DlDmEUC3-FqLIhk6ZRCF

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Social\, Behavioral & Experimental Economics (SBEE): Interregional Contact and National Identity
DESCRIPTION:Abstract:\nWe study the long-run effects of contact with individuals from other regions on beliefs\, preferences and the formation of a shared national identity. We combine a natural experiment\, therandom assignment of male conscripts to different locations throughout Spain\,with tailored survey data. Being randomly assigned to complete military service outside of one’s region of residence fosters contact with conscripts fromother regions\, and increases sympathy towards people from the region of service\, measured several decades later. We also observe an increase in identification with Spain for individuals originating from regions with peripheral nationalism. Our evidence suggests that intergroup exposure in early adulthood canhave long-lasting effects on individual preferences and identity formation.\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

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Labor Economics: nterdependent Values in Matching Markets: Evidence from Medical School Programs in Denmark (joint with Martin Hackmann\, Adam Kapor\, Sofia Moroni\, Anne Brink Nandrup)
DESCRIPTION:Abstract:\nThis paper studies imperfect information and interdependent values in matching markets\, with an application to Danish medical school programs. We combine unique data on college applicants’ program preferences\, programs’ admission decisions\, and student outcomes to provide direct evidence on the value of screening and the winner’s curse in matching markets. To this end\, we leverage the two-tiered Danish admission system with predetermined shares of GPA-based and program-specific screening-based admissions. We first use an RD design to document that applicant screening provides extra information over GPA on program completion. We then take advantage of an information experiment where one medical program intensified their screening efforts in a difference-in-difference design. While this program substantially increased completion rates after the reform\, their experiment worsened the winner's curse in the rival program\, providing direct evidence for common values. In the second part of the analysis\, we develop and estimate a structural model that yields these empirical facts as equilibrium outcomes of a two-sided matching market. Our counterfactual analysis aims to analyze potential inefficiencies of the current DA mechanism by allowing for alternative information structures and assessing changes in players’ strategies and welfare outcomes.\n\n* To join the seminar\, please contact at econ.events@umich.edu

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Assessing the Progress of Diversity\, Equity\, and Inclusion Initiatives in the College of Engineering: Student Perceptions of the Climate at the University of Michigan
DESCRIPTION:The University of Michigan College of Engineering is nearing the end of its five-year strategic plan to improve the climate on campus with regards to Diversity\, Equity\, and Inclusion (DEI). As part of that plan\, focus groups were held with students across every department and program in the College of Engineering\, to gather qualitative data that can serve as metrics to consider how the DEI strategic plan is progressing. Over thirty focus groups were held with more than 220 undergraduate and graduate students across the College in the 2019-2020 and 2020-2021 academic years. Students were asked about various elements of their perception of DEI\, including factors that impacted their sense of inclusion\, if they had been treated differently based on their identity\, and their perceptions of the College and their department with regards to diversity. The data collected in these focus groups illuminates the nuance and complexity of the engineering student experience\, and how that experience\, and their perceptions of DEI in the College\, can vary based on their identities and home department.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:MIPSE Seminar | Physics of Partially Magnetized ExB Plasmas in the Laboratory and Space
DESCRIPTION:The seminar is free and open to the public.\nTo request the Zoom link\, please send an email to:\nmipse-central@umich.edu\n\nAbstract:\nPartially magnetized plasma is a regime where the electron dynamics across the magnetic field are controlled by the magnetic field. The electron Larmor radius is much smaller than the macroscale (e.g.\, geometric scale of the domain or device size)\, while the ion Larmor radius is much larger. Ions are weakly affected by the magnetic field. Such regimes occur in parts of Earths’ ionosphere\, the solar chromosphere\, and collisionless shocks in space. In natural conditions\, the electric field perpendicular to the magnetic field is often created due to the relative flow of the electrons and ions. In laboratory and technological plasmas\, an external electric field perpendicular to the magnetic field is applied so that the ions can be extracted and accelerated by the electric field\, while the electrons remain trapped by the magnetic field enhancing the discharge efficiency. Such cross-field (or ExB) discharges are widely used in magnetron sputtering devices for material processing and plasma electric propulsion such as Hall thrusters. Despite their long history\, many aspects of ExB physics are only qualitatively understood precluding the predictive modeling of\, for example\, the next generation of Hall thruster for space propulsion or the theoretical prediction of ionosphere irregularities. Quantitative characteristics of nonlinear plasma instabilities\, plasma turbulence\, and associated anomalous transport remain poorly understood. Physics of instabilities and transport in partially magnetized ExB plasmas will be discussed\, presenting recent advances in analytical theory and numerical approaches\, and highlighting critical questions and problems.  \n\nAbout the Speaker: \nAndrei Smolyakov is a Professor in the Department of Physics and Engineering Physics at the University of Saskatchewan\, Canada. He received his MSc. (Diploma of Engineer-Physicist) and Ph.D. (Candidate of Physical and Mathematical Sciences) degrees in 1983 and 1986\, respectively\, both from Moscow Institute of Physics and Technology\, Russia. His research interests include basic plasma physics with applications to magnetic fusion\, laboratory plasmas\, and plasma for electric pro-pulsion. He is a Fellow of American Physical Society\, Senior Member of the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers\, and a Professional Engineer registered in the Province of Saskatchewan. He is a member of the editorial boards for several plasma physics journals and is an Associate Editor for Physics of Plasmas of AIP.

SUMMARY:Livestream / Virtual:2021 David Noel Freedman Lecture
DESCRIPTION:Objects form the critical deposits of museums and archives. This becomes obviously true in the case of biblical museums and archives that desperately rely upon material remains to bring the Bible to life. These archives have been central to Biblical Studies and the maintenance of the Bible as a product of imperial modernity. The Bible as a text and archive plays a critical role in the production and maintenance of the narratives of racial capitalism\, a central aspect of Western modernity. By examining the language and ephemera of contemporary readers\, who have been racialized by imperial logics that produce Bible translations and narrativize objects in archives\, this presentation situates the geography of contemporary racialized readers as the site from which to develop an archive of the Bible. Local geographies\, both the specific geography of the context of the Bible and the geography of a modern reader\, are seen as productive challenges to the universalizing myths of modernity. Greater attention to contextual languages and experiences offer opportunities to unmask the cultural and geographical boundedness of stories\, objects\, and lives that form the core deposit of the Bible.\n\nPlease register here: https://umich.zoom.us/webinar/register/WN_d4hdv79nRRO1MpB0zbNDCQ

SUMMARY:Livestream / Virtual:CCMB / DCMB Weekly Seminar
DESCRIPTION:Abstract:  \nMy lab's research involves the development and application of systems biology approaches—combining computation\, machine learning\, quantitative modeling\, and experiments—to study the immune system in health and disease.  Recent technological and computational advances allow comprehensive interrogation of multiple modalities (e.g.\, proteins\, mRNAs\, immune receptor sequences) in single cell resolution in the human population.  Here I will highlight our work in the analysis human and single cell variations along the axes of early immune development\, vaccination\, and COVID-19.  If time permits\, I will also discuss the integration of tissue imaging\, machine learning\, and multiscale dynamical modeling of immune cell interactions to investigate the homeostatic regulation of autoreactive T cells.\n\n* * *\n\nBiography:  Dr. Tsang is a senior investigator in the NIH Intramural Research Program and leads a laboratory focusing on systems and quantitative immunology at the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID).

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Department Colloquium | The First Measurement of the Muon Anomalous Magnetic Moment from the Fermilab Muon g-2 Collaboration
DESCRIPTION:Department Colloquium Link: http://myumi.ch/GkgBm\n\nThis colloquium will cover the physics and methods behind Fermilab's Muon g-2 experiment\, along with the long-awaited results from Run-1. The experiment was undertaken to resolve the tension between the Standard Model and the previous measurement taken at Brookhaven National Labs. The measured value of the muon anomalous magnetic moment is $a_\mu(FNAL) = 116592040(54)×10^{−11}$. This result is in good agreement with Brookhaven's previous measurement. The new world average\, $a_\mu(Exp) = 116592061(41)×10^{−11}$\, shows a difference from the theoretical value\, $a_\mu(Exp) = 116591810(43)×10^{−11}$\, of 4.2 standard deviations\, strongly hinting at physics beyond the Standard Model. The experiment requires the simultaneous measurement of the muon precession frequency\, the magnetic field\, and the muons' distribution in the field. All three of these measurements will be discussed in context\, along with the main systematic corrections and uncertainties.\n

SUMMARY:Livestream / Virtual:MCAIM Colloquium - Black Hole Imaging: First Results and Future Vision
DESCRIPTION:In April 2017\, the Event Horizon Telescope (EHT) carried out a global Very Long Baseline Interferometry (VLBI) observing campaign at a wavelength of 1mm that led to the first resolved image of a supermassive black hole. For the 6.5 billion solar mass black hole in the giant elliptical galaxy M87\, the EHT estimated the spin orientation and constrained models of accretion on Schwarzschild radius scales. This work relied on two decades of technical advances in ultra-high resolution interferometry and theoretical General Relativistic Magnetohydrodynamic (GRMHD) simulations. This talk will review these advances and recent new EHT results. We will also look to the next decade when a next-generation EHT (ngEHT) that doubles the number of participating radio dishes in the VLBI network will enable time-lapse movies of M87 that link the black hole to the relativistic jet it powers. For SgrA*\, the Galactic Center black hole that evolves on time scales 1000 times faster\, ngEHT will produce real-time video.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Michael Beauregard Seminar in Macroeconomics: Skewed Business Cycles (joint with Sergio Salgado and Nicholas Bloom)
DESCRIPTION:Abstract:\nUsing firm-level panel data from the US Census Bureau and almost fifty other countries\, we show that the skewness of the growth rates of employment\, sales\, and productivity is procyclical. In particular\, these distributions display a large left tail of negative growth rates during recessions and a large right tail of positive growth rates during booms. We find similar results at the industry level: industries with falling growth rates see more left-skewed growth rates of firm sales\, employment\, and productivity. We then build a heterogeneous-agents model in which entrepreneurs face shocks with time-varying skewness that matches the firm-level distributions we document for the United States. Our quantitative results show that a negative shock to the skewness of firms’ productivity growth (keeping the mean and variance constant) generates a persistent drop in output\, investment\, hiring\, and consumption. This suggests the rising risk of large negative firm-level shocks could be an important factor driving recessions. \n* To join the seminar\, please contact at econ.events@umich.edu

SUMMARY:Livestream / Virtual:Perspectives on Contemporary Korea 2020-21 | South Korean Film Industry Conference
DESCRIPTION:Register for the conference here:\nhttps://myumi.ch/yK21R\n\nSouth Korean cinema provides one of the most striking case studies of non-Western cinematic success in the age of the neoliberal world order\, in which Hollywood dominates the global movie consumer’s heart\, mind\, and soul. Against the onslaught of US products in the world’s media marketplace\, South Korean cinema has successfully defended itself. In 2001\, South Korea became the first film industry in recent history to reclaim its domestic market from Hollywood. In 2006\, local films had a 67 percent market share—the highest such figure in the world except for the US and India—and they have continued to maintain a market share of around 50 percent in the 2010s (52 percent in 2019). Admissions per capita in 2019 also reached 4.37\, up from 1.1 in 1998 and 2.92 in 2010\, the highest around the globe\, when it was 3.5 in the U.S. The number of screens in Korea has soared\, from 511 in 1997 to 3\,079 in 2019. Based on the increasing numbers of moviegoers and domestic films produced\, South Korea has become one of the world’s major film markets (ranked 5th in 2020). Adding to this success\, the high-quality South Korean local product has flowed outward to global film markets to connect with international audiences in commercial cinemas\, in art theaters\, and at major international film festivals. Park Chan-wook’s Oldboy (2003) received the Grand Prix at the Cannes International Film Festival. Hong Sang-soo had great success in Cannes\, Berlin\, and Locarno with Hahaha (2010)\, Right Now\, Wrong Then (2015)\, and On the Beach at Night Alone (2017). Other breakthrough auteurs\, art-house and genre-bending specialists alike\, followed: Lee Chang-dong\, Im Sang-soo\, Kim Jee-woon\, Ryoo Seung-wan and Kim Ki-duk. Bong Joon-ho’s Parasite marked the culmination of South Korean cinema’s global success. Parasite became the first foreign-language film to win Best Picture at the Oscars (2020)\, and swept other major awards including Best Director\, Screenplay\, and International Feature.\n\nIn English-language academic circles\, likewise\, interest in South Korean cinema as a serious scholarly subject has been growing exponentially. The evolution of South Korean cinema scholarship has been noteworthy. Such scholars as Isolde Standish\, David James\, Rob Wilson\, Kyung Hyun Kim\, Soyoung Kim\, Paul Willemen\, and Kathleen McHugh initially ignited the field of South Korean cinema studies and\, almost simultaneously\, two monographs followed in the UK and US: Hyangjin Lee’s Contemporary Korean Cinema: Culture\, Identity and Politics (2000) and Kyung Hyun Kim’s The Remasculinization of Korean Cinema (2004). Since then\, the field has witnessed a blossoming of South Korean cinema studies in the form of monographs\, edited volumes\, and special issues.  Although the field has recently greeted many significant scholarly achievements that have extensively discussed South Korea’s cinematic legacies\, it is still difficult to find scholarly articles on pre-1990s South Korean films – and almost none are available on films from the 1970s and 80s. There is also a shortage of articles on individual films and directors\, and no systematically structured book-length study on the South Korean film industry has been published as of the time this conference is being prepared.\n\nThe South Korean Film Industry conference will bring together scholars from major sites of Korean film and media Studies research in the Anglophone world (including Canada\, U.S.\, U.K.\, and Australia) with scholars from Korea and Singapore for an interdisciplinary dialogue on the diversity and complexity of the South Korean film industry. This conference aims to showcase innovative scholarly work examining wide-ranging coverage of subjects such as the production\, exhibition and distribution of South Korean cinema\, state policy and censorship\, coproduction\, film festivals and cinephilia\, independent cinema\, and Hallyu and the global reception of South Korean cinema. \n\nFull conference details and schedule available at:\nhttps://myumi.ch/1p0b3\n\nWednesday\, April 14\n\n7:00-8:00pm       Panel 3: Transformation of the South Korean Film Industry 2\n\nChair: Daniel Herbert (University of Michigan)\n\nThe South Korean Animation Industries\nDaniel Martin (KAIST)\n\nKorean Remakes of Korean Films\nSeung-Ae Lee (Macquarie University)\n\n8:10-9:30pm       Panel 4: Film Cultures\n\nChair: Irhe Sohn (Smith College)\n\nSong Kang-Ho\, A Star of New Korean Cinema\nNoh Kwang-woo (Korea University)\n\nReel Heritage: the History of the Korean Film Archive and Film Restoration\nAriel Schudson (Film Archivist)\n\nCreating a “Cheerful” Cinema: South Korea’s Cold War Regimes and State Film Censorship\, 1960s-1980s\nHye Seung Chung (Colorado State University)\n\nIf there is anything we can do to make this event accessible to you\, please contact us at ncks.info@umich.edu. Please be aware that advance notice is necessary as some accommodations may require more time for the university to arrange.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:The Crisis in Myanmar: Repression\, Resistance\, Repercussions
DESCRIPTION:Speakers: \nDavid I. Steinberg\, Distinguished Professor of Asian Studies Emeritus\, Georgetown University\, Washington\, DC \n\nMoe Thuzar\, Fellow and Co-coordinator\, Myanmar Studies Programme\, ISEAS-Yusof Ishak Institute\, Singapore\n\nCo-moderated by John Ciorciari\, Director\, Weiser Diplomacy Center\, University of Michigan\, and Donald K. Emmerson\, Director\, Southeast Asia Program\, Stanford University\n\nShocking events obliterate context. The coup in Myanmar on 1 February 2021 is a case in point. Who could imagine the cruelty of the Burmese generals who on February 1st 2021 grabbed power and proceeded to retain it by arresting thousands and murdering hundreds of its local opponents? Who expected that on February 2nd the country’s youth would launch a nonviolent Civil Disobedience Movement (CDM) and keep it going and growing against such massively intimidating odds? In this webinar\, two experts will provide the essential but all too often missing contexts—current and historical\, domestic and foreign\, political and socioeconomic—within which the crisis can be understood\, its future projected\, and its implications assessed. To those ends\, the on-the-ground knowledge\, personal experience\, and close observer's insights of Burmese scholar Moe Thuzar will interact with the insights of American professor David Steinberg based on his Burmese experiences and scholarship dating back into the 20th century.  \n\nThe webinar will consider in particular what the coup and its aftermath may imply for Southeast Asia and its relations with China.  Relevant in that regard is the involvement of all four panel members in a recent collection\, The Deer and the Dragon: Southeast Asia and China in the 21st Century—Steinberg and Ciorciari as authors\, Emmerson as editor\, and Thuzar as an analyst who is using the book in her own research. \n\nDavid I. Steinberg is Distinguished Professor of Asian Studies Emeritus\, Georgetown University\, where he directed its Asian studies program (1997-2007). Other positions he has held include the presidency of the Mansfield Center for Pacific Affairs and Southeast Asia-related US foreign-policy posts as a member of the Senior Foreign Service. He has also represented The Asia Foundation in South Korea\, Burma\, Hong Kong\, and Washington\, D.C.  His 15 books and monographs include one translation\, more than 150 articles\, and several hundred op-eds.. Among these books are: Myanmar: The Dynamics of an Evolving Polity (ed.\, 2015)\; Burma/Myanmar: What Everyone Needs to Know (2013\, 2nd edition)\; Modern China-Myanmar Relations: Dilemmas of Mutual Dependence (with Fan Hongwei\, 2012)\; Turmoil in Burma: Contested Legitimacies in Myanmar (2006)\; Burma: The State of Myanmar (2001)\; and Burma’s Road to Development (1981). His expertise includes the two Koreas\, about which he has written widely. Professor Steinberg was educated at the University of London’s School of Oriental and African Studies\, Harvard University\, Darmouth College\, and Lingnan University in Canton (now Guangzhou)\, China.\n\nMoe Thuzar joined the Institute of Southeast Asian Studies in Singapore in 2008. Her responsibilities there have included managing or co-managing its Myanmar Studies Programme\, serving as a lead researcher in its ASEAN Studies Centre\, and helping the Centre engage with Myanmar regarding its turn to chair ASEAN in 2014. She spent the 2019-2020 academic year as a Fox International Fellow at Yale University's MacMillan Center researching the socio-cultural underpinnings of Burma’s Cold War foreign policy for her National University of Singapore PhD. Earlier she worked for a decade at the ASEAN Secretariat\, where she headed its Human Development Unit. Her many publications include\, as co-author\, the 2020 and 2019 editions of ISEAS’s widely read State of Southeast Asia: Survey Report. Other recent writing includes chapters and articles in ASEAN-EU Partnerships: The Untold Story (ed.\, 2020)\; the Journal of Southeast Asian Economies (2019)\; Southeast Asian Affairs (ed.\, 2019)\; Human Security Norms in East Asia (ed.\, 2019)\; and\, as co-author\, ASEAN’s Myanmar Dilemma (with Lex Rieffel\, 2018). Earlier works include Myanmar: Life After Nargis (with Pavin Chachavalpongpun\, 2009).
