Three generations of Sibande women were employed as domestic workers in Apartheid South Africa\, which Sibande references through Sophie’s blue and white uniform—a dress synonymous with the profession there. Though not quite part of the born-free generation (the name given to children born after the start of Nelson Mandela’s presidency in 1994)\, Sibande was able to dream of life choices that were inaccessible to her ancestors. These dreams are acted out by her alter-ego Sophie\, a life-size fiberglass figure cast in the artist’s own likeness. Sibande created Sophie/Elsie in 2009 in honor of her great-grandmother\, who was given the Western name Elsie because her masters couldn’t be bothered to learn her African name. While closing her eyes\, Sophie imagines herself as an orchestra conductor\, as a superhero\, as a businesswoman. Here\, her maid’s uniform transforms into the dress of a Victorian queen\, complete with billowing cape and dramatic train. \n \nAt a time when indoor visits are limited\, UMMA is proud to be able to share Sophie/Elsie with our community. Eventually\, she will take center stage in a reinstallation of the permanent African galleries\, opening in fall 2021. The reinstallation will feature UMMA’s historical collection of African art\, as well as recent acquisitions of contemporary artworks from artists based in Africa and in the diaspora. \n \nThis museum purchase was made possible by Joseph and Annette Allen. \n\n UID:84306-21623059@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/84306 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Africa,Art,Children,Exhibition,Family,Free,History,Museum,UMMA LOCATION:Museum of Art - Irving Stenn, Jr. Family Gallery CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20210701T145834 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20210718T100000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20210718T160000 SUMMARY:Exhibition:A Garden of Earthy Delights: Ceramic Sculptures by Ann Arbor Potters Guild at Matthaei Botanical Gardens DESCRIPTION:Inspired by the synergy between nature’s beauty and complexity\, and in partnership with the University of Michigan Matthaei Botanical Gardens\, artists from the Ann Arbor Potters Guild created work centered around Michigan’s natural landscapes and specifically for the Great Lakes Garden at Matthaei.

Despite successful first line therapies\, most patients relapse and develop more chemoresistant disease. This recurrence and development of chemoresistance is attributed to a rare population of tumor cells\, termed cancer stem cells (CSCs)\, which are more chemoresistant\, have the capacity to self-renew\, and can repopulate the entire tumor. Research has shown that CSCs are maintained by the non-cancer cells in the tumor microenvironment (TME)\, such as mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs)\, endothelial cells (ECs)\, and immune cells. Furthermore\, the role of non-cancer cells in clinical outcomes and chemoresistance has been highlighted by recent evidence showing that classification of HGSOC molecular subtypes\, which have variable clinical prognoses\, are influenced by the presence of non-cancer cells in the tumor. However\, it is currently unclear exactly how CSCs and the nuanced cell composition of the TME work together to promote chemoresistance. Current models used to study these phenomena either suffer from a lack of cellular complexity in the case of many in vitro models or impractical experimental constraints such as long latency periods and poor control over cell composition in patient-derived xenografts. To better understand the role of CSCs and the TME cells in chemoresistance\, practical in vitro model systems that more closely represent in vivo processes and microenvironments are needed. We hypothesize that the development of these in vitro model systems will contribute novel insights into TME-mediated CSC regulation and the development of chemoresistance in HGSOC.\n\nIn aim 1 we examined the emergence of chemoresistance in the context of CSCs by developing a 3D in vitro serial passaging model system that allows for long term culture of patient-derived tumor cells with periodic evaluation of stemness and chemoresistance. Using this model system\, we demonstrated increased proliferation\, expression of CSC markers\, tumorigenicity\, and chemoresistance over the course of long-term passaging\, reflective of emerging chemoresistance in vivo. Furthermore\, this system enabled us to define a malignant gene expression signature that is associated with chemoresistance\, tumorigenicity\, and stemness and to evaluate patient-specific chemoresistance development following treatment. Finally\, we demonstrated the translational value of this model system by showing that Metformin treatment can hinder CSC driven development of chemoresistance in a phase II clinical trial.\n\nIn aim 2 we developed a heterogeneous tumoroid culture system that enabled culture of patient-derived tumor cells with controlled ratios of MSCs\, ECs\, and immune cells to study TME-mediated maintenance of CSCs and chemoresistance. Using this model\, we found that changes in CD133+/-ALDH+/- CSC phenotypes in response to TME cells varied depending on the patient sample. We also observed increased tumorigenicity and chemoresistance in tumoroids compared to spheroids cultured with patient-derived tumor cells alone. Furthermore\, we found evidence of epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition (EMT) in tumoroids accompanied by altered CSC phenotypes and a malignant matrisome signature. All of this together supports idea that the non-cancer cells in the TME contribute to the development of advanced\, chemoresistant disease and implicates EMT\, changes in CSC phenotypes\, and matrix remodeling as the primary culprits.\n\nFinally\, in aim 3\, we utilized this tumoroid system to generate tumoroids with 23 different cell compositions to evaluate the role of TME cell composition in response to therapy. Drug assays with novel and traditional chemotherapies revealed that tumoroids with different compositions respond differently to therapy and that the number of monocytes included in the culture was associated with the greatest resistance to therapy. Furthermore\, our random forest models trained on the drug responses of each cell composition were able to predict drug response with moderate success. With these models we identified that nuanced differences in cell composition can influence drug response and that the strongest predictor of response to therapy was the total quantity of non-cancer cells. Overall\, this model demonstrates the potential of using the TME composition to predict patient drug response and direct clinical management.\n\nIn these aims we demonstrate the clear utility of complex and realistic\, yet practical in vitro model systems in the study of chemoresistance and CSC maintenance in ovarian cancer. Specifically\, we identified the link between CSCs and the development of chemoresistance in long term 3D in vitro serial passage culture. Furthermore\, we showed that the non-cancer cells in the TME can confer chemoresistance and promote EMT associated with altered CSC phenotypes and matrix remodeling. Lastly\, we demonstrated the potential of TME composition in predicting drug response. Overall\, the model systems presented in this study provide platforms that can be used to better understand the role of CSCs and the TME in chemoresistance and poor clinical outcomes. This could ultimately lead to the development of novel therapies\, enhanced clinical management\, and improved clinical outcomes.\n\nDate: Wednesday\, July 21\, 2021\nTime: 9:00 AM\nZoom: https://umich.zoom.us/j/96111622879\nPassword: 326862\nChair: Dr. Geeta Mehta UID:84438-21623984@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/84438 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Basic Science,biomedical,biomedical engineering,Biosciences,bme,engineering,Medicine,Michigan Engineering LOCATION:Off Campus Location CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20210701T145834 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20210721T100000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20210721T160000 SUMMARY:Exhibition:A Garden of Earthy Delights: Ceramic Sculptures by Ann Arbor Potters Guild at Matthaei Botanical Gardens DESCRIPTION:Inspired by the synergy between nature’s beauty and complexity\, and in partnership with the University of Michigan Matthaei Botanical Gardens\, artists from the Ann Arbor Potters Guild created work centered around Michigan’s natural landscapes and specifically for the Great Lakes Garden at Matthaei.

Clinical standard assessment of therapy response and tumor progression is based upon post-contrast T1-weighted (T1W) and fluid-attenuated inversion recovery (FLAIR) T2-weighted (T2W) magnetic resonance images (MRI).  However\, contrast enhancement observed on the post-contrast T1W MRI is affected not only by tumor growth but also effects of radiation\, anti-angiogenesis drugs and chemotherapy\, due to the fact that it represents blood-brain barrier disruption. Another problem is that abnormality on T2W FLAIR images is influenced by T2 changes of tumor cells as well as edema and necrosis that always co-exist within GBM. Diffusion weighted (DW) imaging has been proposed to overcome these limitations. Conventional DW images quantify apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) with b-values between 0 and 1000 s/mm2 using a mono-exponential decay. One limitation is that co-existence of edema in clinical GBM elevates ADC.\n \nIn diffusion MRI\, there are three dimensions of parameter spaces that we could explore in research —b value\, diffusion time (t) and echo time (TE). Hence\, we investigated and developed high order diffusion models in these three spaces and evaluated whether they could reveal more features of GBM.\n \nIn the b-value space\, we investigated a microstructure model (MSM)\, in which modulation of diffusion gradient with cell size is considered\, with high b-value diffusion images in the patients with GBM pre-radiation therapy (RT). We found apparent cell size (ARS)\, extracellular diffusion coefficient (Dex) and intracellular fractional volume (Vin) in tumor were significantly greater than ones in normal tissue and edema. In addition\, we investigated diffusion kurtosis imaging (DKI) in GBM pre-RT and mid-RT\, and found pre-RT mean kurtosis of the tumor could provide a predictive value of overall survival (OS) additional to clinical prognostic factors.\n \nIn the TE space\, T2-Relaxation-Diffusion correlation experiments can be powerful in resolving water compartments with respect to their size and chemical composition\, but the problem is ill-posed. We simplified the T2-Relaxation-Diffusion correlation to consider the T2 values and diffusion coefficients in a 2x2 fashion. We found that there were significant differences between fast and slow diffusion coefficients and between associated T2 values in tumor\, cortex\, deep GM\, and edema. Multivariate Cox model showed the fractional volume of slow component (Vs) mid-RT may add a predictive value to clinical factors.\n \nIn diffusion time space\, we applied three different diffusion times using pulsed diffusion gradients (PG) and oscillating gradients at frequencies of 30 Hz (OS30) and 50 Hz (OS50) using a prototype sequence. Using a random walk with barriers model\, we estimated cell diameter\, unrestricted diffusion coefficient (D0) at a short time limit\, bulk diffusion coefficient (Dinf) at a long time limit\, cell membrane permeability and effective restriction in the contrast-enhanced tumor. Those parameters provide microstructural information in the GBM and need to be further investigated and validated with pathology.\n \nPrevious studies have mainly investigated high order diffusion models in prostate cancer and xenograft tumor models\, and only a few studies investigated GBM. The current knowledge about the relationship between model parameters and physiological/pathological features in GBM are still limited. Our research in GBM could lead to better imaging means for GBM diagnosis\, tumor target definition for radiation therapy\, and therapy response assessment.\n \nDate: Thursday\, July 22\, 2021\nTime: 2:00 PM\nZoom: https://umich.zoom.us/j/96213084276\n\nChair: Dr. Yue Cao UID:84452-21624017@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/84452 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:biomedical,biomedical engineering,bme,engineering,Medicine,Michigan Engineering LOCATION:Off Campus Location CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20210506T120852 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20210722T140000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20210722T153000 SUMMARY:Meeting:CoderSpaces (Thursdays) DESCRIPTION:Are you grappling with a piece of code\, trying to compute on a cluster\, or just getting started with a new method such as machine learning?

The advances in robotic perception technologies open paths for the development of machines that can be aware of people's trust by observing humans' behaviors and identifying whether they are being trusted or not by those people. This dissertation explores the role and the intricacies of trust in the interactions of humans and robots\, particularly Automated Vehicles (AVs).\nNovel methods and models are proposed for perceiving and processing drivers' trust in AVs and for determining humans' natural trust or robots' artificial trust. Two high-level problems are addressed: the problem of avoiding or reducing miscalibrations of drivers' trust in AVs and the problem of how to use trust to dynamically allocate tasks between a human and a robot that collaborate.\n\nA complete solution is proposed for the problem of avoiding or reducing trust miscalibrations\, which combines methods for estimating and influencing drivers' trust through interactions with the AV. Three main contributions stem from that solution: the characterization of risk factors that affect drivers’ trust in AVs\; the development of a new method for real-time trust estimation\; and the development of a new method for trust calibration.\n\nAlthough the development of a complete trust-based solution for the problem of dynamically allocating tasks between a human and a robot remains an open problem\, this dissertation takes a step forward in that direction. The fourth contribution here proposed is the development of a unified bi-directional model for predicting natural and artificial trust. This trust model allows for the numerical computation of human's trust and robot's trust\, which is represented by the probability of a given agent to successfully execute a given task. As a probability of success\, trust can readily be used for the computation of expected rewards and costs for tasks to be executed by each possible agent and can guide decision-making algorithms based on the optimization of those rewards and costs.

An effective autonomous robot will need to have a similarly seamless recovery from unexpected contact. As simple as this may seem\, even sensing this contact is a challenge for many robots\, and when detected contact is often treated as an error that an operator is expected to resolve. Robots operating in our daily environments will need to reason about the information they have gained from contact and replan autonomously.\n\nThis thesis examines planning under uncertainty with contact sensitive robot arms. Robots do not have skin and cannot precisely sense the location of contact. This leads to the proposed Collision Hypothesis Set model for representing a belief over the possible occupancy of the world sensed through contact. To capture the specifics of planning in an unknown world with this measurement model\, this thesis develops a POMDP approach called the Blindfolded Traveler's Problem. A good prior over the possible obstacles the robot might encounter is key to effective planning. This thesis develops a neural network approach for sampling potential obstacles that are consistent with both what a robot sees from its camera and what it feels through contact.
