SUMMARY:Livestream / Virtual:Japanese Studies and Antiracist Pedagogy | Getting Started: Challenges and Opportunities in Anti-racist Pedagogy in Premodern Japanese Literature
DESCRIPTION:Advance registration for this Zoom webinar is required:\nhttps://myumi.ch/BoYbQ\n   \n   Part of the Japanese Studies and Antiracist Pedagogy webinar series:\nhttps://myumi.ch/88W5V\n   \n   Teaching about race and ethnicity through premodern Japanese literature poses a formidable challenge. This is not only because we lack a robust body of scholarship trained on this lens to assign on syllabi\, but also because we have lacked academic gatherings such as RaceB4Race\, where medievalists working on Europe have begun to think about the possibilities of race as an analytical category in relation to medieval texts. This presentation is therefore a call to getting started\, to think creatively about how we can incorporate existing scholarship on social marginality\, precarity\, and otherness (on outcastes and pollution\, on Hansen’s disease\, on slavery and indentured servitude\, on illness\, on animals) to help students make broader connections.\n   \n   Vyjayanthi Selinger is an Associate Professor of Asian Studies at Bowdoin College. Her research examines literary representations of conflict in medieval Japan\, war memory\, legal and ritual constraints of war\, Buddhist mythmaking\, and women in war.\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

SUMMARY:Other:From Rescue to Rebuild: Developing a National ECE System That Works
DESCRIPTION:Between historic bipartisan investments to stabilize and expand access to child care in 2020 and new proposals from Congress and the Biden Administration\, the nation is poised to significantly increase access to quality early childhood education (ECE). These investments are acutely needed to ensure that all children—particularly children from families with low incomes—have access to high-quality ECE\; working and middle class families have access to affordable care\; and early educators are supported and adequately compensated.\n\nAs Congress and the Administration consider their next major investments in ECE\, however\, they need a vision for a new and better system. How do we ensure that our many early childhood programs—including child care subsidies\, Head Start\, state preschool\, and special education programs—can be a system of coherent support from birth through early elementary? Experts will address this question in an upcoming webinar\, “From Rescue to Rebuild: Developing a National ECE System That Works.” The webinar will focus on long-term federal policy solutions to build a comprehensive\, equitable\, and integrated early learning system\, drawing from the work of the Learning Policy Institute and New America\, as well as the authors of Cradle to Kindergarten: A New Plan to Combat Inequality. It will also address concrete actions that policymakers can take in the near term with federal stimulus funds.\n\nPlease register here: https://us02web.zoom.us/webinar/register/WN_pKpDoK9bSZiiSidYPJdFSw \n\nSpeakers:\n\nLaura Bornfreund\, Director\, Early and Elementary Education\, New America\n\nAjay Chaudry\, Professor\, New York University and former Deputy Assistant Secretary for Human Services Policy at the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services\n\nLinda Darling-Hammond\, President and CEO\, Learning Policy Institute \n\nU.S. Representative Rosa DeLauro (D-CT)\n\nHanna Melnick\, Senior Policy Advisor\, Learning Policy Institute\n\nChristina Weiland\, Associate Professor of Education\, University of Michigan\n\nAdditional speakers to be added.\n\nRelated Resources\nBuilding a National Early Childhood Education System that Works (brief)\n\nCradle to Kindergarten: A New Plan to Combat Inequality\, 2nd Edition (book)\n\nSupporting Early Learning in America: Policies for a New Decade (report)\nChild Care in Crisis: Can Biden’s Plan Save It?

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:WISE Science Communication- Calling BS
DESCRIPTION:The best laid plans can go awry with poorly thought through conclusions drawn from otherwise accurate data. Learn to identify misleading results (deliberate or accidental) in research with an exercise from the famous University of Washington course Calling Bullshit.\n\nWe'll look at an example from science media\, from a researcher\, and from an NIH report\, each of which have serious but easy to miss errors but still got published. Just what is wrong with the papers? How did the editors neglect to find the issue with their conclusions? Why did the scientist who wrote up the results not see their own error? (spoiler alert- the answer to all these questions is usually bias or outright discrimination) \n\nWe'll answer these questions in person on North Campus. The rest of the course is available for free online for you to follow up or bring back to your colleagues to continue the discussion.\n\nRegister here:: https://sessions.studentlife.umich.edu/track/event/session/43035

SUMMARY:Performance:(CANCELLED)San Fermin: The Cormorant I + II Voices Tour - Rescheduled from 6/1/20
DESCRIPTION:A huge part of The Cormorant is the lush vocal texture throughout\, from our singers Allen Tate\, Claire Wellin\, and Karlie Bruce\, as well as guests like Samia\, Eliza Bagg (Lisel)\, and Sarah Pedinotti (Lip Talk). In planning this tour\, San Fermin thought it would be cool to highlight this aspect of the music\, stripping down the instrumental arrangements and allowing the singers to take center stage. You’ll see a different\, quieter side of San Fermin\, more vulnerable and intimate.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:PhD Defense: William Y. Wang
DESCRIPTION:Mechanoreciprocity in cell migration is an emerging concept describing the dynamic\, bi-directional interactions between migrating cells and the surrounding extracellular matrix (ECM) they negotiate. Migrating cells not only sense and adapt to biochemical and biophysical ECM cues\, but also\, exert forces\, deposit matrix\, and secrete chemokines\, matrix metalloproteinases\, and matrix crosslinking enzymes that dynamically alter the same ECM properties known to regulate cell migration. Due to limitations in standard cell migration assays\, how matrix properties influence cell migration and in turn\, how cells influence matrix properties\, has previously been studied as separate processes. However\, observations from development\, wound healing\, and a variety of disease processes highlight the interdependency and iterative relationship between cell migration and ECM. An improved understanding of the underlying mechanisms that orchestrate the coevolution of migrating cells and ECM will aid in tissue engineering and regenerative medicine efforts to guide repair fibroblasts to regenerate wound beds\, direct collective endothelial cell migration to vascularize ischemic or engineered tissue grafts and confine otherwise metastatic cancer cells to the primary tumor. Thus\, the focus of this dissertation is to design biomimetic microsystems that afford investigation of cell migration mechanoreciprocity with a focus on fibroblasts\, endothelial cells\, and cancer cells.\n\n \n\nFirst\, this thesis investigated how single mesenchymal cells (fibroblasts and cancer cells) migrate in fibrous stromal tissue settings\, such as in trans-stromal cancer cell migration during metastasis. To model fibrous stromal tissue\, 3D fiber networks were electrospun over microfabricated wells to define ECM mechanics. Independently tuning alignment and stiffness of these matrices resulted in two phenotypically distinct cell migration modes. In contrast to stiff matrices where cells migrated continuously in a traditional mesenchymal fashion\, cells in deformable matrices stretched matrix fibers to store elastic energy\; subsequent adhesion failure triggered sudden matrix recoil and rapid cell translocation (termed slingshot migration). Across a variety of cell types\, traction force measurements revealed a relationship between cell contractility and the matrix stiffness where slingshot migration mode occurred optimally.\n\n \n\nNext\, this thesis describes how microenvironmental cues influence collective endothelial cell migration during sprouting angiogenesis towards the design of pro-angiogenic biomaterials. This work employed a multiplexed angiogenesis-on-a-chip platform to assess the chemokine-directed 3D invasion of endothelial cells from a lumenized parent vessel into user-defined ECM. By tuning soluble and physical cues of the ECM\, this work identified how 1) functional angiogenesis requires microenvironmental cues that balance cell invasion speed and proliferation\; 2) dynamic interactions between sprout stalk cells and ECM regulates neovessel lumenization\; and 3) imbuing microporosity within synthetic hydrogels can enhance endothelial cell invasion and angiogenic sprout lumenization.\n\n \n\nLastly\, this thesis investigated how fibrous matrix cues activate quiescent vessel-lining endothelial cells into invasive tip cells in the context of fibrosis. Composite hydrogels (electrospun fiber segments suspended within 3D ECM) were integrated with the angiogenesis-on-a-chip platform. These studies establish that heightened matrix fiber density destabilizes cell-cell adherens junctions\, reduces endothelium barrier function\, and promotes the invasion of endothelial tip cells. Performing transcriptomic and secretomic analyses on fiber-induced tip endothelial cells revealed that fibrous ECM cues promote a fibrosis propagating phenotype.\n\n \n\nOverall\, the work presented in this dissertation integrates tunable biomaterials with microfabricated devices to investigate cell migration mechanoreciprocity of single mesenchymal cell migration\, the collective migration of endothelial cells during angiogenesis\, and endothelial-mesenchymal transition of quiescent endothelial cells into a fibrosis propagating cell phenotype.\n\n \n\nDate: Friday\, June 4\, 2021\n\nTime: 12:30 PM\n\nZoom: https://umich.zoom.us/meeting/register/tJcsf-uhpj4vGtyM7x-td2VV39BzqmF_zoob (Zoom link requires prior registration)\n\nChair: Dr. Brendon Baker

SUMMARY:Performance:A Celebration of Black Music II
DESCRIPTION:»I know why the caged bird sings« – it sings of freedom in order not to lose hope. It sings in order to feel the life beyond the bars of its cage. To encourage itself and others. And this is how American composers and authors with African roots sing and write to this day: their subject matter is discrimination and injustice\, pride and dignity – but love and separation as well\, mourning and joy\, belief and hope.\n\nIn the second part of the Celebration of Black Music\, several generations of these artists have their say: from Florence Price and William Grant Still to Tyshawn Sorey and B. E. Boykin. The concert presents a many-voiced panorama of black music in its countless and fascinating facets.\n\n*Note: All Hamburg International Music Festival 2021 concerts are available to stream free of charge. Once premiered\, each concert stream can be accessed for the whole festival period.*

The exhi­bi­tion blends archival mate­ri­als\, social and polit­i­cal arti­facts\, pho­tog­ra­phy\, and art to explore the con­gru­ent and con­tra­dict­ing ideas\, aes­thet­ics\, and cul­tures work­ing to make the halal metrop­o­lis both a real and imag­i­nary entity.\n\nFea­tur­ing works by:\n\nAmna Asghar\nQais Assali\nBGIRL MAMA\nNour Ball­out\nAdnan Charara\nKecia Escoe\nParisa Ghaderi\nAnthony Keith Giannini\nRazi Jafri\nOsman Khan\nMaamoul Press\nEndi Poskovic\nHaleem ​‘Stringz’ Rasul\nReem Taki\n\nThis exhi­bi­tion is pre­sented in part­ner­ship with the Uni­ver­sity of Michigan-Dearborn’s Cen­ter for Arab Amer­i­can Stud­ies (CAAS)\, with sup­port from the Knight Foun­da­tion\, the Doris Duke Foun­da­tion\, the Andy Warhol Foun­da­tion for the Visual Arts\, the El-Hibri Foun­da­tion\, the Com­mu­nity Foun­da­tion of SE Michi­gan\, and the Michi­gan Human­i­ties Council.

SUMMARY:Class / Instruction:Cybersecurity: Personal\, Corporate and Governmental  Risk and Strategies for Addressing Vulnerabilities
DESCRIPTION:News of extensive Russian hacking of a number of U.S. government agencies and major corporations broke recently\, prompting many questions about the strength of our cybersecurity. Why was the Russian hacking not detected by any of the government agencies that have cybersecurity roles? Is our reliance on private companies for our nation’s cybersecurity strategy appropriate\, or does this pose a vulnerability?\n\nOur speaker\, Kristin Judge\, is founder of the nonprofit Cybercrime Support Network.  The Cybercrime Support Network works with federal\, state and local law enforcement and consumer protection agencies to help consumers and small businesses affected by cybercrime. \n\nMs. Judge’s extensive background includes her role as Director of Government Affairs at the National Cyber Security Alliance (NCSA) where she worked with Google\, FTC\, FBI\, SBA\, DHS\, NIST\, congressional leaders and other key stakeholders across the country to educate consumers and businesses on how to protect sensitive data.\n\nPreregistration is required via the OLLI website or phone. A link to access the lecture will be e-mailed to you a few days prior to the first lecture.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Sovereignty Sharing in Fragile States
DESCRIPTION:This lecture will be live streamed\n\nIn many parts of the world\, countries emerging from conflict suffer from grave deficits in the rule of law. Weak courts\, police\, and anti-corruption mechanisms allow insecurity\, graft and impunity to fester.  In some extraordinary cases the United Nations and other international actors have partnered with national governments\, sharing sovereign authority over key functions\, to bolster the rule of law. This talk will discuss the power and pitfalls of sharing sovereignty\, drawing examples in West Africa\, the Middle East\, Southeast Asia\, and Central America.\n\nOur presenter\, John D. Ciorciari is an Associate professor of Public Policy and Director of the Ford School’s Weiser Diplomacy Center and International Policy Center at the Gerald R. Ford School of Public Policy\, University of Michigan.  His research focuses on international law and politics in the Global South. He is the author or editor of several books on international politics and law\, including a new book entitled “Sovereignty Sharing in Fragile States”.  He received his AB and JD from Harvard University\, his DPhil and Fulbright Scholarship from the University of Oxford.\n\nThis is the last of ten lectures to be presented once each month from September 2020 through June 2021. A new series will start in September 2021.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 a few days prior to the first lecture.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Halal Metropolis
DESCRIPTION:The Halal Metrop­o­lis exhi­bi­tion\, by artist Osman Khan\, pho­tog­ra­pher Razi Jafri\, and his­to­rian Sally How­ell\, explores the facts\, fic­tions\, and imag­i­nar­ies of the Mus­lim population(s) in Detroit and South­east Michi­gan as viewed through his­tor­i­cal research\, doc­u­men­ta­tion of cur­rent con­di­tions\, and explo­rations of future desires.

SUMMARY:Livestream / Virtual:The Unexpected Power of Selflessness: Giving back for Father’s Day
DESCRIPTION:What if your path to a more successful\, healthy\, and satisfying life is actually not about you? \n\nSeven years ago\, Richard Lui walked into his supervisor’s office at NBC’s 30 Rock headquarters\, prepared to give up his dream news anchor job. Having just learned of his father’s Alzheimer’s\, the journalist wanted to be with him during his important last years\, even if it meant setting aside his career. Lui reduced his work hours and joined 53 million Americans in becoming a family caregiver. His book\, Enough About Me\, is inspired by that decision to live to take care of someone else.\n\nAs we look toward celebrating Father’s Day soon\, we invite you to join us for this heartfelt fireside chat hosted by Julia Lee Cunningham\, where Lui shares how one of the big ideas of our time is more in reach than we thought. How small choices toward selflessness are not a compromise. And as we celebrate the love and learnings that fathers and father figures contribute to our lives\, Father’s Day can also be a day for everyone to show that choice by choice\, step by step\, we can do something bigger than ourselves. \n\nAbout Lui\nAuthor Richard Lui is a veteran and award-winning journalist with more than 30 years in television\, film\, technology\, and business. Currently at MSNBC and previously with CNN Worldwide\, he is the first Asian American man to anchor a daily national cable news program\, and a team Emmy and Peabody winner. He has just completed an Oscars Qualifying documentary on student caregivers in military families that will hit national broadcast and mainstream streaming in late spring 2021. In addition\, Richard’s 15-year business career involves a fintech patent and launching six tech brands over three business cycles. Richard has lived\, worked\, and volunteered on every continent.\n\nHost\nJulia Lee Cunningham\, Assistant Professor of Management and Organizations\, Michigan Ross\n\nFree\, registration required to obtain login information: https://positiveorgs.bus.umich.edu/2021-summer-series-registration-richard-lui/

SUMMARY:Livestream / Virtual:Safety Assessment of Autonomous Vehicles with a Naturalistic and Adversarial Driving Environment
DESCRIPTION:Safety performance testing is critical to the development and deployment of autonomous vehicles (AVs). The prevailing approach life-like simulations of our driving environment. However\, due to its high dimensionality and the rareness of safety-critical events\, hundreds of millions of miles would be required to demonstrate an AV's safety performance. \n\nThe research in this presentation proposes a naturalistic and adversarial driving environment that can significantly reduce the required number of miles driven while simultaneously maintaining unbiasedness. Drs. Henry Liu and Shuo Feng will demonstrate the effectiveness of this in a highway-driving simulation.\n\nLearn more about the proposed research: https://myumi.ch/BoQ2Q\n\n---\nAbout the speakers:\nDr. Henry Liu is a professor in the Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering at the University of Michigan\, a Research Professor at the University of Michigan Transportation Research Institute (UMTRI)\, and the Director for the Center for Connected and Automated Transportation (CCAT). Professor Liu conducts interdisciplinary research at the interface of transportation engineering\, automotive engineering\, and artificial intelligence.
