Bring your picnic blanket to Ingalls Mall!\n\nPlease fill out our convenient pre-registration form: https://myumi.ch/ZQWvq. This information will be kept for 21 days after the concert\, and will only be used for contact tracing if confirmed COVID-19 cases become associated with the gathering.\n\nABOUT THE PERFORMERS:\n\nAbigail Findley grew up in San Diego\, California and the Houston\, Texas area\, where she began playing piano and clarinet. In 2020\, she began taking carillon lessons at the University of Michigan\, from which she graduated in 2021 with a B.A. in Biopsychology\, Cognition\, & Neuroscience\, and a minor in Music.\n\nKevin Lieberman is a Robotics PhD Candidate at the University of Michigan. He has studied carillon for three semesters and is a member of the Carillon Guild at U-M. A past leader of Michigan's Jewish graduate student community\, Kevin received the University of Michigan's Graduate Student of the Year Student Leadership Award and the College of Engineering Harry B. Benford Award for Entrepreneurial Leadership. His carillon arrangement of the Yiddish song \"Zog Nit Keyn Mol\" was published in the book \"Global Rings\" (CHI Press\, 2020).\n\nXiaoying Pu is a Ph.D. Candidate in Computer Science and Engineering at the University of Michigan\, with a research interest in visually communicating uncertainty and data analyses. She has been taking carillon since Fall 2018\, under Drs. Tiffany Ng and Pamela Ruiter-Feenstra. In addition to playing weekly noontime concerts\, Xiaoying has also arranged classical pieces for carillon and was featured in Earth Day at 50 Teach-Out at Michigan\, performing a nature-themed arrangement of a Native American medicine song.

Stuck in his East Village apartment\, Joshua William Gelb discovered his closet to be a unique and creative performance space. Called “Virtuosic” by Jesse Green in the New York Times\, who wrote\, “The closet has produced some of the new medium’s most imaginative work.”\n \nTheater in Quarantine (TiQ) is a performance laboratory dedicated to the exploration of the live theatrical experience in the digital space. Developed  by Founder/Co-Creative Director Gelb and Co-Creative Director Katie Rose McLaughlin\, TiQ has created and live streamed over 25 new\, original works of performance. TiQ has worked with an array of remote collaborators (including Raja Feather Kelly\, Heather Christian\, Karen Olivo\, and Underground Railroad Game’s Scott R. Sheppard)\; and partnered with The Invisible Dog\, LaMaMa Experimental Theater Club\, CultureHub and Theater Mitu.\n \nIn their first year\, TiQ has been established as one of the most consistent makers of digital performance\, having been featured in The New York Times\, The New Yorker\, Vulture\, on NPR’s All Things Considered\; and reached audiences across the globe. Helen Shaw in Vulture wrote that the closet “makes confinement a virtue\, a prompt to imagination.”\n \nA2SF is thrilled to commission a new piece in which TiQ will partner with musician Ki5 who will perform live from the University of Michigan Museum of Art (UMMA) while TiQ performs simultaneously over a live stream from New York City.\n \nAbout Ki5: Vocalist\, songwriter\, and producer Kyler Wilkins from Ann Arbor\, Michigan has been performing as Ki5 using nothing but a loop station and a simple effects unit since 2017. His vibrant composition style – influenced by his time in a cappella groups – explores every crevice of the human voice meshed with beatboxing and delivers familiar genres such as R&B\, pop\, and soul to name a few. His honest\, empathetic\, and freeing style has been influenced by Reggie Watts\, and Bon Iver.\n \nNPR’s All Songs Considered says this about Ki5’s 2019 live-looping performance of “Honey” off his first EP Looking for the Sun: “Like honey\, [his] falsetto is sweet\; the layers of loops are sticky and soothing\, building to a celebratory bridge\, then melting back down to calming waves.”\n \nLeading up to summer 2021\, Ki5 has been focused on studio recording and collaborating with fellow artists around the U.S. and Canada to expand upon his vocal-driven style and push himself into new\, intriguing territory involving more instrumentation. Recent songs such as “Sunny Days (Remix)\,” “Made of Stars\,” and “Show Me Freedom” are expressions of his musical and personal growth and he hopes his practice of empathy is on display at every performance.\n \nTiQ’s full archive can be found and streamed anytime on their YouTube channel at youtube.com/theaterinquarantine.\n \nTiQ will premiere on Youtube on June 21 at 7pm & 9pm EDT. The performance will be livestreamed from UMMA.\n \n\n \n \n\nTheater in Quarantine is presented by the Ann Arbor Summer Festival in partnership with the University of Michigan Museum of Art (UMMA).

Sheppard)\; and partnered with The Invisible Dog\, LaMaMa Experimental Theater Club\, CultureHub and Theater Mitu.\n \nIn their first year\, TiQ has been established as one of the most consistent makers of digital performance\, having been featured in The New York Times\, The New Yorker\, Vulture\, on NPR’s All Things Considered\; and reached audiences across the globe. Helen Shaw in Vulture wrote that the closet “makes confinement a virtue\, a prompt to imagination.”\n \nA2SF is thrilled to commission a new piece in which TiQ will partner with musician Ki5 who will perform live from the University of Michigan Museum of Art (UMMA) while TiQ performs simultaneously over a live stream from New York City.\n \nAbout Ki5: Vocalist\, songwriter\, and producer Kyler Wilkins from Ann Arbor\, Michigan has been performing as Ki5 using nothing but a loop station and a simple effects unit since 2017. His vibrant composition style – influenced by his time in a cappella groups – explores every crevice of the human voice meshed with beatboxing and delivers familiar genres such as R&B\, pop\, and soul to name a few. His honest\, empathetic\, and freeing style has been influenced by Reggie Watts\, and Bon Iver.\n \nNPR’s All Songs Considered says this about Ki5’s 2019 live-looping performance of “Honey” off his first EP Looking for the Sun: “Like honey\, [his] falsetto is sweet\; the layers of loops are sticky and soothing\, building to a celebratory bridge\, then melting back down to calming waves.”\n \nLeading up to summer 2021\, Ki5 has been focused on studio recording and collaborating with fellow artists around the U.S. and Canada to expand upon his vocal-driven style and push himself into new\, intriguing territory involving more instrumentation. Recent songs such as “Sunny Days (Remix)\,” “Made of Stars\,” and “Show Me Freedom” are expressions of his musical and personal growth and he hopes his practice of empathy is on display at every performance.\n \nTiQ’s full archive can be found and streamed anytime on their YouTube channel at youtube.com/theaterinquarantine.\n \nTiQ will premiere on Youtube on June 21 at 7pm & 9pm EDT. The performance will be livestreamed from UMMA.\n \n\n \n \n\nTheater in Quarantine is presented by the Ann Arbor Summer Festival in partnership with the University of Michigan Museum of Art (UMMA).

It enhances a healthy person's abilities and supports a physically challenged person's daily life by providing powered hip\, knee\, and/or ankle motions with different control designs. State-of-art powered exoskeletons use trajectory-based\, kinematic control methods for specific tasks. This type of control is appropriate for paraplegia\, where the exoskeleton provides complete assistance. However\, it overly constrains the volitional motion of people with remnant voluntary ability\, e.g.\, stroke patients. In contrast\, trajectory-free control methods are now being developed to provide task-invariant partial assistance for practicing/relearning leg motions or performing a continuum of activities in varying environments. Robotics systems like powered exoskeletons can be represented in the format of the Euler-Lagrange equation or the equivalent class\, the port-controlled Hamiltonian equations. We use energy shaping methods for task-invariance by altering the human-exoskeleton system's dynamic characteristics via the Euler-Lagrange equations or the more general port-controlled Hamiltonian equations. Under satisfaction of the matching conditions\, which is a set of nonlinear partial differential equations (PDEs)\, the open-loop system's mass/inertia matrix and gravitational vector can be mapped to the desired closed-loop system dynamics. \n\nEnergy shaping has broad applicability but has been limited in part by its computational and analytical complexity. Changes to the system dynamics must follow the solution to the matching conditions\, while finding a solution to the matching conditions itself is challenging. The corresponding controller for kinetic energy shaping requires complicated calculations of the mass/inertia matrix inverse\, where the computational cost for implementation increases tremendously. Potential energy shaping avoids the matrix inversion by altering only the potential energy but prevents shaping on the inertia terms. Such challenges require a new total energy shaping (TES) framework that provides flexible shaping structures with more freedom to change closed-loop dynamics over the potential energy shaping method. The corresponding control law with shaped structure also requires efforts to optimally achieve the powered exoskeletons' target control strategy for different locomotor tasks. Therefore\, the specific aims of this project are: 1) construct a TES framework for powered exoskeletons with flexible shaping structure\, 2) apply the framework to powered exoskeletons for optimal assistance across varying locomotor tasks\, and 3) perform experiments on multiple human subjects to demonstrate the possible clinical benefits of optimal TES framework with powered lower-limb exoskeletons.\n\nThis work is significant to the viability and performance of energy shaping methods to nonlinear systems by simplifying the matching conditions and providing flexibility in inertia forces/torques compensation. In powered exoskeletons\, inertia compensation does not require modifying the mass/inertia matrix with high dimensions\, and the corresponding controllers are efficient for experimental implementation. The powered exoskeletons' target control strategy uses normative torque patterns to provide assistance or augment performance. We formulate an optimization problem to design the controller and produce joint torques that fit normative biological joint torques and offload musculature for walking on multiple tasks\, including stairs. We perform experiments with multiple able-bodied human subjects wearing a knee-ankle exoskeleton to demonstrate reduced activation in certain lower-limb muscles on multiple tasks.

Their interactions are central to digestive functions and the “gut feeling”. The neural pathways that mediate the stomach-brain interactions include the vagus nerve and the thoracic nerve. Through these nerves\, the stomach can relay neural signals to a number of brain regions that span a central gastric network. This gastric network allows the brain to monitor and regulate gastric physiology and allows the stomach to influence emotion and cognition. Impairment of this gastric network may lead to both gastric and neurological disorders\, e.g.\, anxiety\, gastroparesis\, functional dyspepsia\, and obesity. However\, the structural constituents and functional roles of the central gastric network remain unclear. In my dissertation research\, I leveraged complementary techniques to characterize the central gastric network in rats across a wide range of scales and different gastric states. In animal experiments\, I used functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) to map brain activity synchronized with gastric electrical activity and to map brain activations induced by electrical stimulation applied to the cervical vagus or its afferent terminals on the stomach. I also used neurophysiology to characterize gastric neurons in brainstem in response to gastric electrical stimulation. Results from my studies suggest that 1) gastric neurons in the brainstem are selective to the orientation of muscle activity relayed through intramuscular arrays\, 2) the central gastric network is intrinsically coupled to gastric slow waves and their amplitude fluctuations primarily via vagal signaling\, 3) selective stimulation of the vagus can evoke widespread and fast brain responses and alter functional connectivity within and beyond the central gastric network. My dissertation research contributes to the foundation of mapping and characterizing the central and peripheral mechanisms of gastric interoception and sheds new light on where and how to stimulate the peripheral nerves to modulate stomach-brain interactions.\n\n \n\nDate: Wednesday\, June 23\, 2021\n\nTime: 3:00 PM\n\nZoom: https://umich.zoom.us/j/2757414653\n\nChair: Dr. Zhongming Liu UID:84287-21621035@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/84287 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Basic Science,Biointerfaces,Biology,biomedical,biomedical engineering,Bioninterfaces,Biosciences,Biotechnology,bme,engineer,engineering,Life Science,Medicine,Michigan Engineering,Science LOCATION:Off Campus Location CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20210615T181514 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20210623T150000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20210623T160000 SUMMARY:Livestream / Virtual:Rackham Minority Serving Institutions Initiative Coffee Chat Series: Fisk-Vanderbilt Master’s to Ph.D. Bridge Program—A Model for Inclusive Graduate Education DESCRIPTION:This talk will provide an overview of the Fisk-Vanderbilt Master’s to Ph.D. Bridge Program (FVBP) Model for inclusive graduate education.

However\, there are significant pockets of poverty in the county: About 11% of the population is below the poverty line. Similarly\, 11% is food insecure\, a percentage close to the national average. The Coronavirus pandemic has greatly worsened the problem. Since March 2020\, county food distribution agencies reported 30-300% increases in visitors. To quote one agency head\, “[T]he pandemic created a perfect storm of food insecurity... We have never seen anything like it\; there was a drastic increase in people needing help.”\n\nThis panel discussion will feature leaders of three front-line organizations doing battle against food insecurity: Food Gatherers represented by Eileen Spring\, serving all of Washtenaw County\; Ypsilanti Meals on Wheels represented by Alison Foreman\; and We The People Opportunity Farm in Ypsilanti\, represented by Melvin Parson. Each leader will describe their organization\, its target audience\, operations\, etc. The moderator will then present topics and questions for further discussion\n \nEileen Spring\, recently named 2021 Woman of the Year by the United Way of Washtenaw County\, has spent 27 years at Food Gatherers and is currently President and CEO. Ms. Spring helped develop and steward a community-wide Food Security Plan that has dramatically improved the amount of fresh produce and protein available to individuals struggling with food insecurity in Washtenaw County. She has been active on the board of the Food Bank Council of Michigan\, has participated at the national level with Feeding America\, and is a founding member of the Washtenaw Housing Alliance. She received her bachelor's degree from Hofstra University and a master's degree from the University of Michigan. \n\nFood Gatherers was the first food rescue program in Michigan\, and the sixth nationwide. The food bank serves all of Washtenaw County and provides millions of pounds of free or low-cost food to a network of 170 hunger relief pantries. Food Gatherers also provides direct food assistance in the form of hot meals\, nutritious snacks\, or emergency groceries to low-income adults\, seniors and children. It operates the Community Kitchen/Job Training Program at the Delonis Center\, as well as Summer Food Service and Healthy School Pantry programs. \n\nAlison Foreman\, Executive Director of Ypsilanti Meals on Wheels (YMOW)\, has worked with Ypsilanti area non-profit organizations for more than 15 years. Ms. Foreman serves on the boards of the Ypsilanti Area Community Fund\, Washtenaw Leaders Advisory and the Area Agency on Aging 1B Diabetes Program Advisory Group\, and is a former member of the SOS community services board. She has appeared as a guest on NPR's “All Things Considered” and CNN's “The Lead.” Prior to YMOW Alison worked with the Michigan State Housing Development Authority and the Book Industry Charitable Foundation. She received her bachelor’s degree in juvenile justice and a master’s degree in public administration from Eastern Michigan University.\n\nYMOW provides nutritious meals\, social contact and other services to homebound elderly\, ill and disabled persons in eastern Washtenaw County\, to enable them to enjoy healthier\, safer\, and more independent lives. YMOW’s vision is a community where every senior feels nourished\, valued and supported.\n\nMelvin Parson (AKA Farmer Parson) spent approximately 13 years of his life incarcerated\, was homeless on three separate occasions\, and battled with substance abuse for many years. He has experienced many of the challenges that come with being on parole or probation. In 2015\, while he was earning a BSW from Eastern Michigan University\, he co-founded a mentor program for men and women returning home from incarceration called A Brighter Way. In 2018 Mr. Parson founded a nonprofit organization\, We The People Opportunity Farm (WTPOF)\, to create a sustainable farming system that can support a workforce of formerly incarcerated persons. He believes a main factor for people returning to prison is their inability to find meaningful employment or enrichment opportunities. One of his goals is to provide a paid internship program that will act as a springboard to future employment\, continued education\, and meaningful strides towards caring about themselves\, others and their community. \n\nWTPOF’s mission is to break the cycle of incarceration in Washtenaw County. Its Paid Internship Program includes farming activities\, as well as literacy and learning related to organic foods\, career-building workshops\, financial literacy\, and home rehabilitation. In addition\, it offers employment and/or educational opportunities and ongoing support. In 2020\, WTPOF started a Food Distribution Program\, and has given over 1\,200 lbs. of food to 300 neighbors. \n\nPreregistration is required via the OLLI website or phone (734-998-9351).

Through a variety of interactive activities and case studies\, participants will be able to explore from a distance the way bias plays out in mentoring relationships\, dive into closer practice to recognize their own bias from a mentor’s perspective\, and develop strategies to interrupt various biases to ensure particular kinds of collaborations with members of their (future) teams. Participants will also be able to tap into personal knowledge and experiences as mentors or mentees and create the vision and practice of mentorship they would like to pursue in their particular fields and careers. The session’s main objective is to recognize the power of intentional mentorship within the inclusive leadership framework by enhancing participants’ skills and professional toolkits and their understanding of differences\, thus\, ultimately\, achieving a higher level of comfort with both vulnerability and life-long growth when advocating for diversity\, equity\, and inclusion.\nSpeaker: Luciana Nemtanu (she/her/hers)\, Associate Director\, Undergraduate Research Opportunity Program\nRegistration is required at https://myumi.ch/r8EE2.\nWe want to ensure full and equitable participation in our events.

UID:83901-21605173@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/83901 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Diversity,Graduate Students LOCATION:Off Campus Location CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20210622T163733 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20210624T103000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20210624T113000 SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:PhD Defense: Eric Charles Hobson DESCRIPTION:Mechanical testing of viscoelastic biomaterials is of critical importance in biomedical engineering\, enabling basic research into the role of the extracellular matrix\, investigatory and diagnostic testing of tissues and biofluids\, and the development and characterization of tissue engineered therapeutics. Conventional material testing approaches used for soft biomaterials generally require force application through direct contact with a sample\, leading to potential contamination and damage\, and thereby limiting these approaches to end-point measurements. To overcome these limitations\, we have developed a new measurement technique\, Resonant Acoustic Rheometry (RAR)\, which enables high-throughput\, quantitative\, and non-contact viscoelastic characterization of biomaterials\, soft tissues\, and biological fluids.\n\n \n\nRAR uses ultrasonic pulses to both generate microscale perturbations and measure the resulting resonant oscillations at the surface of soft materials using standard labware. Resonant oscillatory properties obtained from the frequency spectra of the surface oscillations\, including the resonant frequency and the damping coefficient\, are used to quantify material properties such as shear modulus\, shear viscosity\, and surface tension in both viscoelastic solids and liquids.\n\n \n\nWe developed a prototype RAR system and tested it on a range of soft biomaterials\, with shear moduli ranging from under 100 Pa to over 50 kPa\, including fibrin\, gelatin\, and polyethylene glycol (PEG). Shear moduli measured using RAR were validated both computationally using finite element analysis and experimentally using conventional shear rheometry\, with excellent linear correlation in measured elasticity between techniques (R2 > 0.95). By performing parallel RAR experiments using microwells of different sizes\, we verified that resonant oscillatory behaviors could be used to quantify the intrinsic viscoelastic properties of a material. We also demonstrated the rapid\, non-contact monitoring of changes in material properties over a variety of temporal scales\, ranging from processes occurring on the order of milliseconds to those occurring over hours and days. High temporal resolution RAR measurements\, with sampling intervals as low as 0.2 seconds\, were used to characterize the gelation process. Characteristic features of the resonant surface waves during phase transition were applied to identify the gel point for various hydrogels. High sample throughput was demonstrated by performing longitudinal RAR testing to explore the impact of hydrogel polymer and crosslinker concentration on both reaction kinetics and final mechanical properties in full factorial experiments consisting of over 15\,000 unique measurements. We were able to identify individual effects of design parameters as well as interactions that led to unexpected mechanical properties\, demonstrating the importance of combinatorial methods and high-throughput mechanical characterization in material design.\n\n \n\nThese studies demonstrate that RAR can rapidly and accurately assess the mechanical properties of soft viscoelastic biomaterials. The measurements generated are analogous to those produced using conventional mechanical testing\, and RAR is further capable of longitudinal viscoelastic studies over time. RAR applies automation in both data collection and analysis\, allowing high throughput measurement of an array of samples without contact or the need for manual intervention. Furthermore\, RAR uses standard microwell plates\, which simplifies sample preparation and handling. The viscoelastic properties of soft biomaterials are relevant in a wide range of applications\, including for clinical diagnostic assays and the development of hydrogel materials for regenerative medicine. RAR represents a fast\, accurate\, and cost-effective method for materials characterization in these applications.\n\n \n\nJune 24 - 10:30 AM\n\nZoom: https://umich.zoom.us/meeting/register/tJcsd-iurTosGdNn_gR-FbOCe5TUR09Y58WV\n\nCo-Chairs: Dr. Cheri Deng and Dr. Jan Stegmann UID:84237-21620794@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/84237 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Basic Science,Biointerfaces,Biology,biomedical,biomedical engineering,Bioninterfaces,Biosciences,Biotechnology,bme,engineer,engineering,Life Science,Medicine,Michigan Engineering,Science LOCATION:Off Campus Location CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20210617T035236 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20210624T113000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20210624T123000 SUMMARY:Livestream / Virtual:Virtual Michigan Medicine Community Conversation DESCRIPTION:Community Conversations is an opportunity for faculty\, staff and student to come together weekly to engage on meaningful ways to increase belonging at Michigan Medicine.

A quick glance across the thoughts and actions of Black Americans demonstrates the notions and realities of freedom and liberation may be different experiences. For some\, freedom is the capacity to think for yourself\, to determine the direction of your future without outside assistance or influence. Yet\, for others\, liberation is the ability to move freely throughout the society – it assumes the absence of bondage and oppression\, an unshackling\, an unfettering\, an unchaining. Throughout history\, people of African descent have fought to not only be free\, but to thrive in liberation. The Diaspora’s diversity\, then\, brings to the table numerous perspectives and ways of imagining and working towards a free and liberated world for Black people. Can this world be known in the 21st century? Can freedom and liberation coexist? What obstacles remain to be dismantled and removed? Are we already free\, and how can this be?\n\nPanelists include: Drs.
