It helps us to confront and address some of the most pressing issues of our time. Art has the power to shift the way we see and understand the world around us\, and the worlds within us. Free Your Mind: Art and Incarceration in Michigan invites us to consider these qualities of art\, while also grappling with the carceral system and the many ways it affects the lives of all of us.\n\nCurrently there are approximately 2.2 million people incarcerated in the United States\, and in Michigan\, there are roughly 33\,000 residents currently serving time in the prison system. Working together with a coalition of more than a dozen organizations and Michigan State University units and departments\, Free Your Mind explores the inner worlds of incarcerated individuals and the fundamental issues that shape conversations around incarceration today. The exhibition centers on four key topics of inquiry: Michigan’s length of sentencing and overcrowding in prisons\; the impact of incarceration on women\; youth incarceration\; and the dangers of COVID-19.\n\nThe exhibition features artists\, poets\, and storytellers of great achievement. The majority of these artists are either currently or formerly incarcerated. Their works on view invite us to consider the role art-making plays in prisons as a liberating force\, and offer unique perspectives on the experience of incarceration. The works also invite us to approach the subject of incarceration with an open mind. Free Your Mind aims to cultivate a greater sense of empathy for those directly impacted by incarceration and an understanding that their growth as individuals is linked to the greater health of the society we all live in\, together.\n\nFree Your Mind: Art and Incarceration in Michigan is organized by the Eli and Edythe Broad Art Museum at Michigan State University and curated by Steven L. Bridges\, Senior Curator and Director of Curatorial Affairs\, and Janie Paul\, Senior Curator and Cofounder\, Annual Exhibitions of Art by Michigan Prisoners\, a project of the Prison Creative Arts Project at the University of Michigan. Support for this exhibition is provided by the Eli and Edythe Broad endowed exhibitions fund.

The artists previously exhibited their work at PCAP's Annual Exhibition of Art by Michigan Prisoners at the University of Michigan. For some\, this exhibition at the MSU Broad Art Lab is the first opportunity to show their work since regaining their freedom. Art-making has helped these artists during the dark years of their incarceration\, and we hope the exhibition inspires visitors to learn more about how to support formerly incarcerated people reconnecting with their communities.\n\nMartín Vargas\, artist and curator of this exhibition\, invites visitors and supporters to not only connect with the artists through their work\, but also during select Art Lab studio hours\, which will feature several of the artists working in person.\n\nConnections\, New Beginnings: Artists in Transition is organized by the Linkage Project of the Prison Creative Arts Project at the University of Michigan in partnership with the Eli and Edythe Broad Art Museum at Michigan State University. The exhibition is curated by Martín Vargas\, Vanessa Mayesky\, Scott Tompkins\, Nico Slowik\, Kimiko Uyeda\, and Jenna VanFleteren.

Attendees who do not comply will be asked to leave. Policies will be updated as circumstances and requirements change in our community. Please review The Ark’s current COVID-related information before attending a show.*\n\nThe Dustbowl Revival has always been about pushing the boundaries of what American roots music can be. In many ways\, they could have continued creating joyful\, booty-shaking songs and cut-to-heart folk-rock ballads that lift up their transcendent live shows—and mining new energetic material from the place where folk music\, funk\, and soul meet. But the band’s newest album\, \"Is It You\, Is It Me\,\" is something different entirely. Produced by Sam Kassirer [Lake Street Dive\, Josh Ritter] and engineered by Brian Joseph [Bon Iver\, Sufjan Stevens]\, it represents the latest stage in a band that never stops evolving and refuses to stand still. The album tackles uneasy topics—often where the political feels personal\, especially in the defiant \"Get Rid of You\,\" which was inspired by the student activists who emerged from the tragic Parkland High School shooting in Florida. The ominous driving brass groove of \"Enemy\" hones in on a painful generational split between a daughter and her parents who may have voted in a tyrant\, and have become strangers to her. This yearning search for common ground pervades the record as a whole.

Stamps School of Art and Design Professor of Art Susan Crowell presents\, among other works\, a series of wall plaques depicting endangered species. In Professor Crowell's effort to\, \"...question our interactions with the animal world and our impact upon it\,\" she has installed images of elephants and donkeys as protagonists and antagonists in political struggle\, and polar bears as victims of global warming. \n\n\"Animal/ Vegetable/Mineral presents an occasion to speak about my most compelling interests—plants and animals--within the mineral rubrics of clay\,\" she says.\n\nThis event is free and open to the public. Masks are required for all attendees. Vaccination is not required but highly encouraged. All attendees must complete a short questionnaire at https://responsiblue.umich.edu/sign-in before entering East Quadrangle.\n\nSusan Crowell is Professor of Art at the University of Michigan\, where she teaches ceramics and holds a joint appointment in the Residential College and the Penny W. Stamps School of Art and Design. A Fulbright Scholar\, she studied architectural ceramics at Centro Internazionale di Ceramica in Rome and directed and taught in the University of Michigan’s Program in Florence. Prof. Crowell conducts research and exhibits her work locally\, nationally and internationally. She has presented projects and exhibitions in Canada (at Banff)\, Japan (at Shigaraki and Miyazaki)\, Italy (Rome\, Venice and Florence)\, Taiwan\, Denmark and China\, as well as in France and the United States\, and she has participated in a variety of international venues and residencies. In 2005 Crowell published I Compianti Sul Christo Morto: Lamentation Groupings in Northern Italy to illuminate the distinguished history of ceramic materials in Quattrocento devotional and didactic sculpture\, and to bring an understanding of their use and potential to contemporary ceramics practitioners. In April of 2016 Prof. Crowell exhibited her work in the conservatories of the Matthaei Botanical Gardens at the University of Michigan\, and in May of 2017\, at the Alden Dow Gardens in Midland\, MI. In 2018 she conducted residencies and research at the Jean Noble Parsons Center for the Study of Art and Science in northern Michigan\, and at A.I.R. Vallauris in Vallauris\, France\, where she exhibited her work in La chapelle de la place Lisnard that October.\n \nFor ten years\, Crowell’s research and artistic practice has focused upon pollen forms and the process of pollination. Deploying her appreciation of the role of technology in revealing the natural world\, she applies the science and aesthetics of botany and apiculture toward the creation of ceramic sculpture\, using cast and hand-built forms. In doing so\, Prof. Crowell presents an expanded view of pollen within the problematics of industrialized honey production\, global commerce in apicultural products\, and genetically modified crops..

In common-value auctions\, uncertainty is defined over values while\, in common-probability auctions\, uncertainty is defined over probabilities. We find that in contrast to the substantial overbidding found in common-value auctions\, bidding in strategically equivalent common-probability auctions is consistent with Nash-equilibrium. This difference between the two uncertain environments originates in subjects' strategic valuations of the object.\"\n\n(To attend this online event\, please complete the form to receive email instructions and announcements for this and future SBEE Seminars.)

The Turnaway Study answers the question\, Does abortion hurt women? and the converse\, What are the harms when women are unable to get a wanted abortion? Dr. Foster will review the challenges of studying abortion and what has happened in the absence of rigorous data. She will describe the study design of the Turnaway Study and present its major findings about women’s mental health\, physical health and the wellbeing of their children. She will describe the reasons people give for seeking to end an unwanted pregnancy and what that tells us about whether one can trust women’s decision-making abilities around pregnancy.\n\nDiana Greene Foster\, PhD\, is a demographer who uses quantitative models and analyses to evaluate the effectiveness of family planning policies and the effect of unwanted pregnancy on women’s lives. She is a professor at the University of California\, San Francisco and Director of Research at the UCSF ANSIRH Program.

He examines ways we could and should question our opinions and attempt to open other people's minds. Many of us favor the comfort of conviction over the discomfort of doubt. We see disagreement as a threat to our egos\, rather than an opportunity to learn. \n\nAs the book says\, “our beliefs get brittle before our bones.” \n\nYou will learn how an international debate champion wins arguments and how the author has coaxed Yankee fans to root for the Red Sox. Adam Grant shows how to get people to begin questioning their ideas\, but he freely admits it is often impossible to change minds. \n\nInstructor Gerry Lapidus has conducted OLLI book discussions since 2005. The classes are informal and conversational. He leads the first week's discussion and requests volunteers to lead the remaining sessions while he serves as moderator. Please read the Prologue and Section 1 (p.1-32) for the first session.\n\nThis study group will meet on Mondays for six weeks beginning on November 1. Preregistration is required via the OLLI website or phone. A link to access the study group will be e-mailed prior to the first session.

In particular\, neutrinos oscillate\, that is\, they convert from one type of neutrino to another\, is a surprising phenomenon under active study. The origin of neutrino mass is important for astrophysics\, cosmology and particle physics\, and many open questions surrounding neutrino oscillation exist. The Tokai-to-Kamioka (T2K) neutrino oscillation experiment sends a beam of muon flavor neutrinos or antineutrinos 295km across Japan. This seminar will discuss the state of the field of neutrino oscillation physics\, including recent results from T2K\, and T2K's exciting future program.\n UID:86658-21635382@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/86658 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Physics,Science LOCATION:West Hall - 335 CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20211026T090731 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20211101T160000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20211101T170000 SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:MIDAS Seminar Series & Industrial and Operations Engineering Co-Present: Phebe Vayanos\, University of Southern California DESCRIPTION:Title: Towards robust\, interpretable\, and fair social and public health interventions\n\nAbstract: In the last decades\, significant advances have been made in AI\, ML\, and optimization. Recently\, systems relying on these technologies are being transitioned to the field with the potential of having tremendous influences on people and society. With increase in the scale and diversity of deployment of algorithm-driven decisions in the open world come several challenges including the need for robustness\, interpretability\, and fairness which are confounded by issues of data scarcity and bias\, tractability\, ethical considerations\, and problems of shared responsibility between humans and algorithms. In this talk\, we focus on the problems of homelessness and public health in low resource and vulnerable communities and present research advances in AI\, ML\, and optimization to address one key cross-cutting question: how to allocate scarce intervention resources in these domains while accounting for the challenges of open world deployment? We will show concrete improvements over the state of the art in these domains based on real world data. We are convinced that\, by pushing this line of research\, AI\, ML\, and optimization can play a crucial role to help fight injustice and solve complex problems facing our society.\n\nBio: Phebe Vayanos is a WiSE Gabilan Assistant Professor of Industrial & Systems Engineering and Computer Science at the University of Southern California.

The Challenges of Implementation DESCRIPTION:Most of us who work in OR applications in healthcare are frustrated by the fact that planners\, managers and decision makers do not seem to be suitably impressed with the mathematical beauty of our models. The literature abounds with hundreds of application papers\; but when we take a closer look\, few of them describe implementation. The problems in the healthcare industry are generally very similar to corresponding problems in any other sector. Hospitals have staffing issues\, budget constraints\, purchasing decisions\, scheduling\, planning\, etc. The differences are subtle and often related to the culture. Over the years\, I have encountered many challenges and I have been able to design approaches to deal with many of them. A few years ago\, I was asked to pick the five top challenges. I can easily rattle off thirty\, but selecting five was itself a challenge. In this talk\, I will outline my perception of the major hurdles\, provide a few examples and discuss strategies for overcoming them.\n\nMichael Carter is a Professor in the Department of Mechanical and Industrial Engineering at the University of Toronto and Founding Director of the Centre for Healthcare Engineering (in 2009).

Stamps School of Art and Design Professor of Art Susan Crowell presents\, among other works\, a series of wall plaques depicting endangered species. In Professor Crowell's effort to\, \"...question our interactions with the animal world and our impact upon it\,\" she has installed images of elephants and donkeys as protagonists and antagonists in political struggle\, and polar bears as victims of global warming. \n\n\"Animal/ Vegetable/Mineral presents an occasion to speak about my most compelling interests—plants and animals--within the mineral rubrics of clay\,\" she says.\n\nThis event is free and open to the public. Masks are required for all attendees. Vaccination is not required but highly encouraged. All attendees must complete a short questionnaire at https://responsiblue.umich.edu/sign-in before entering East Quadrangle.\n\nSusan Crowell is Professor of Art at the University of Michigan\, where she teaches ceramics and holds a joint appointment in the Residential College and the Penny W. Stamps School of Art and Design. A Fulbright Scholar\, she studied architectural ceramics at Centro Internazionale di Ceramica in Rome and directed and taught in the University of Michigan’s Program in Florence. Prof. Crowell conducts research and exhibits her work locally\, nationally and internationally. She has presented projects and exhibitions in Canada (at Banff)\, Japan (at Shigaraki and Miyazaki)\, Italy (Rome\, Venice and Florence)\, Taiwan\, Denmark and China\, as well as in France and the United States\, and she has participated in a variety of international venues and residencies. In 2005 Crowell published I Compianti Sul Christo Morto: Lamentation Groupings in Northern Italy to illuminate the distinguished history of ceramic materials in Quattrocento devotional and didactic sculpture\, and to bring an understanding of their use and potential to contemporary ceramics practitioners. In April of 2016 Prof. Crowell exhibited her work in the conservatories of the Matthaei Botanical Gardens at the University of Michigan\, and in May of 2017\, at the Alden Dow Gardens in Midland\, MI. In 2018 she conducted residencies and research at the Jean Noble Parsons Center for the Study of Art and Science in northern Michigan\, and at A.I.R. Vallauris in Vallauris\, France\, where she exhibited her work in La chapelle de la place Lisnard that October.\n \nFor ten years\, Crowell’s research and artistic practice has focused upon pollen forms and the process of pollination. Deploying her appreciation of the role of technology in revealing the natural world\, she applies the science and aesthetics of botany and apiculture toward the creation of ceramic sculpture\, using cast and hand-built forms. In doing so\, Prof. Crowell presents an expanded view of pollen within the problematics of industrialized honey production\, global commerce in apicultural products\, and genetically modified crops.. More recently\, she has created Thinning the Herd\, an installation of animal forms that addresses endangered species\, and Oppositional\, a commentary on contemporary political behavior in the United States.

Saldamando merges painting and collage\, often using origami paper\, glitter\, or gold leaf in her compositions\, many of which are painted on wood or found surfaces. Her modern portraits and innovative methods challenge social constructs pertaining to individual and collective identity within the broader context of the “American Portrait.” Saldamando’s visual biographies\, which use her friends\, family\, and fellow members of the Chicanx creative community in Los Angeles\, create new ways of seeing and being seen.\n\nOn November 2\, 6:30-8pm\, Shizu Saldamando talks to curator Amanda Krugliak about Shizu's artistic practice and her exhibition *When This is All Over / Cuando Esto Termine*.\n\nAbout the artist: Shizu Saldamando is an LA based mixed media artist with an emphasis on portraiture. She received her B.A. from UCLA’s School of Arts and Architecture and her M.F.A. from California Institute of the Arts. Her work has been exhibited both locally and internationally and experiments with a broad range of surfaces and materials. Saldamando’s practice employs tattooing\, video\, painting and drawing on canvas\, wood\, paper\, and cloth. The work functions as homage\, as well as documentation\, of friends and peers within artistic and musical subcultures around the Los Angeles metropolitan area. She is currently represented by Charlie James Gallery in Los Angeles.\n\nShizu Saldamando is the 2021 Paula and Edwin Sidman Fellow in the Arts at the University of Michigan Institute for the Humanities.

Thurston\, PhD is an Associate Professor of Biostatistics and Environmental Medicine\, University of Rochester\, Dept of Biostatistics and Computational Biology.\n\nABSTRACT: The Seychelles Child Development Study (SCDS) Main Cohort was recruited to investigate the association between prenatal mercury (Hg) exposure from maternal fish consumption and the children’s subsequent development. Multiple neurodevelopmental outcomes were measured at several discrete ages. These outcomes can be grouped into different classes or \"domains\"\, such as cognition\, motor\, or memory. Associations of Hg and covariates may differ across outcomes and domains. Motivated by the SCDS\, I will first discuss a model for multiple outcomes at a single age under the assumption that each outcome belongs to one domain and domain memberships are known. I will then briefly describe two extensions: a model in which outcomes may have partial domain membership in more than one domain\, and a longitudinal multiple outcomes model for cognition when the tests of cognition change with the age of the child.\n\nThe goal of Environmental Statistics Week is to disseminate knowledge of advanced statistical methods most relevant to environmental health research with expert-led discussions on statistical concepts.

We first consider two ambiguity sets defined by decision- dependent bounds on the first and second moments of uncertain parameters and by mean and covariance matrix that exactly match decision-dependent empirical ones\, respectively. For both sets\, we show that the subproblem in each stage can be recast as a mixed-integer linear program. Moreover\, we extend the general moment-based ambiguity set in Delage and Ye (2010) to the multistage decision-dependent setting and derive mixed-integer semidefinite programming (MISDP) reformulations of stage-wise subproblems. We obtain lower and upper bounds of the optimal objective value of the multistage MISDPs. We deploy the Stochastic Dual Dynamic integer Programming (SDDiP) method for solving the problem with risk-neutral or risk- averse objective functions\, and conduct numerical studies on multistage facility-location instances having diverse sizes under different parameter and uncertainty settings. Our results show that the SDDiP quickly finds optimal solutions for moderate-sized instances under the first two ambiguity sets\, and also finds good approximate bounds for the multistage MISDPs derived under the third ambiguity set. We also demonstrate the efficacy of incorporating decision- dependent distributional ambiguity in multistage decision-making processes. This general decision-making framework can be applied to a broad spectrum of applications\, such as shared mobility\, supply chain management\, and finance. In the future\, I look forward to continuing this line of research and combining risk management with reinforcement learning to enhance risk- aware decisions. \n\nPresenter Bio: Xian Yu is currently a Ph.D. candidate from Department of Industrial and Operations Engineering at the University of Michigan.

Motivated by two experiments that challenge the Standard Model of Elementary particle physics\, we have developed new approaches to magnetometry using optically pumped 3He applied from Tesla to microTesla. For the recently announced new measurement of the muon magnetic moment anomaly at Fermilab\, an absolute 3He NMR magnetometer accurate to 30 ppb was introduced into the calibration chain of the 1.45 T magnetic field of the storage ring. For experiments under development to extend sensitivity to the neutron electric dipole moment\, 3He magnetometers provide \"read out\" by micro-fabricated rubidium optical magnetometers.

She received her BA in music from Barnard College and MA and PhD in musicology from Harvard University. Her research focuses on opera and issues surrounding gender\, voice\, and race. Her publications include topics on Italian opera\, Schoenberg\, women composers\, and teaching opera in prisons. Her books\, Voicing Gender: Castrati\, Travesti\, and the Second Woman in Early Nineteenth-Century Italian Opera (2006) and Blackness in Opera (2012\, edited collection) focus on opera from the nineteenth to the mid-twentieth centuries and explore constructions of gender\, race and identity. She published Black Opera: History\, Power\, Engagement with University of Illinois Press in 2018\, a monograph on staging race and history in opera today in the United States and South Africa. She has served on the Graduate Alumni Council for Harvard University’s Graduate School of Art and Sciences\, the Executive Committee for the Criminal Justice Program at the American Friends Service Committee (Ann Arbor\, MI)\, and has served as an evaluator for the Fulbright Senior Specialist Program.\n\nIn 2019\, Naomi was named the inaugural Scholar in Residence at the Seattle Opera and in 2020\, she joined with scholars around the world to co-found the Black Opera Research Network to explore the relationship between opera and race. Naomi co-edited a 2021 collection of essays titled African Performance Arts and Political Acts that is due to be released shortly before this lecture by University of Michigan Press. \n\nThe U-M Residential College Robertson Memorial Lecture is made possible by a gift honoring Professor James H. and Jean B.

Else Lecture in the Humanities DESCRIPTION:Summary: women who have written and published books about their travels in Greece form a little-known literary genre. They include a nineteenth-century British composer\, a beloved teacher of composition at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill\, a contemporary American poet\, and a Greek-American with a literary pedigree who worked as a wedding consultant for Martha Stuart. Some truly intrepid philhellenes have traveled in Greece and written about it\, but their work has not been published. One was Eva Palmer Sikelianos\, the subject of a recent magisterial biography by Artemis Leontis. Another was a lover of classical archeology who devoted her energies to the American School of Classical Studies at Athens. None of these women were academics or classicists or modern Greekists. Others have traveled in Greece in the abstract\, by way of words\, through private study of the classics. Virginia Woolf falls into this category. What we have in common\, besides a love of Greece\, is the determination to write about it. \n\nSuggested Readings: \nA Three-Legged Tour in Greece\, by Ethel Smyth (1927)\nGreece By Prejudice\, by Daphne Athas (1962)\nDinner with Persephone\, by Patricia Storace (1996)\nNorth of Ithaca\, by Eleni N.

Each of these parameters ultimately govern charge transport\, the preservation of coherence\, and energy transfer.\n In this talk\, I will discuss fundamental guidelines for the design of well-defined organic-inorganic heterostructured materials with controlled morphology and interfaces that serve as conduits for deterministic and coherent spin and charge transfer. I will divide my talk into two different sub-topics\, i.e.\, (1) how matching phonon structure across interfaces through control of mode and site of attachment of molecules to surfaces allow for efficient coherent charge transfer and (2) how topologically protected electronic states can be defined by 2D assembly of pi-conjugated molecules and layered organic-inorganic hybrid materials on surfaces for spin-coherent electronic transport. Here\, I will emphasize the role that dimensionality plays in modulating the spin and charge properties of organic-inorganic hybrid structures. The common thread between these two sub-topics is the fundamental understanding of energy and charge transfer at the interfaces of organic-inorganic hybrid materials to control charge (spin) injection\, transport\, manipulation\, and detection with implications for photovoltaics\, energy storage\, quantum electronics\, and spintronics. \nLuisa Whittaker-Brooks (University of Utah) UID:84363-21623582@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/84363 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Biosciences,Chemistry,Science LOCATION:Chemistry Dow Lab - 1640 CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20211007T144908 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20211102T160000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20211102T173000 SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:WCED Lecture. Silver Democracy: Youth Representation in Aging Japan DESCRIPTION:Young people are underrepresented in most political institutions. Yet\, there is a lack of research on either the causes behind the shortage of younger politicians or the potential consequences for policy outcomes. Understanding whether younger and older policymakers behave differently in office is especially important in advanced democracies such as Japan that confront declining birthrates and rapidly aging populations. In these countries\, politicians face soaring welfare costs and tough decisions about how to allocate scarce resources between the needs of younger working families and elderly retirees. Without the presence of more young people in public office\, there is a concern that the decisions made by mostly older politicians will lead to welfare policies that favor the elderly at the expense of younger families. Older politicians may also be less willing than younger politicians to address long-term issues such as welfare reform\, which will have a greater impact on younger generations.\n \nIn McClean's book project\, he uses original\, municipal-level data in Japan to examine whether institutional factors can help explain the variation in the age of politicians across elected offices\, whether voters have preferences concerning their representatives’ ages\, and whether the shortage of younger politicians matters for welfare policy. In this talk\, he will focus especially on this last question by discussing how the age of politicians affects how they allocate government spending on social welfare between age groups and over time.\n \nCharles McClean studies comparative politics in advanced democracies with a focus on political institutions\, representation\, social welfare\, local politics\, and Japan. Substantively\, he is interested in age and representation\, the age orientation of welfare programs\, and how societies confront the challenges of aging populations. His research uses both quantitative and qualitative methods by combining quasi-experimental analysis of observational data\, text analysis\, and survey experiments together with interviews with Japanese local and national politicians. Prior to coming to Michigan\, McClean earned his PhD in political science from UC San Diego in 2020 and was a postdoctoral fellow in the Program on U.S.-Japan Relations at Harvard University (2020-21).\n\nThis lecture is part of the WCED series on \"Capitalism and Democracy.\" 2022 will mark the 30th anniversary of the publication of Capitalist Development and Democracy (by Dietrich Rueschmeyer et. al. in 1992) and the 80th anniversary of the publication of Capitalism\, Socialism\, and Democracy (by Joseph Schumpeter in 1942). It is thus a perfect occasion to think anew about how capitalism and democracy interact.

Saldamando merges painting and collage\, often using origami paper\, glitter\, or gold leaf in her compositions\, many of which are painted on wood or found surfaces. Her modern portraits and innovative methods challenge social constructs pertaining to individual and collective identity within the broader context of the “American Portrait.” Saldamando’s visual biographies\, which use her friends\, family\, and fellow members of the Chicanx creative community in Los Angeles\, create new ways of seeing and being seen.\n\nAbout the artist: Shizu Saldamando is an LA based mixed media artist with an emphasis on portraiture. She received her B.A. from UCLA’s School of Arts and Architecture and her M.F.A. from California Institute of the Arts. Her work has been exhibited both locally and internationally and experiments with a broad range of surfaces and materials. Saldamando’s practice employs tattooing\, video\, painting and drawing on canvas\, wood\, paper\, and cloth.

Stamps School of Art and Design Professor of Art Susan Crowell presents\, among other works\, a series of wall plaques depicting endangered species. In Professor Crowell's effort to\, \"...question our interactions with the animal world and our impact upon it\,\" she has installed images of elephants and donkeys as protagonists and antagonists in political struggle\, and polar bears as victims of global warming. \n\n\"Animal/ Vegetable/Mineral presents an occasion to speak about my most compelling interests—plants and animals--within the mineral rubrics of clay\,\" she says.\n\nThis event is free and open to the public. Masks are required for all attendees. Vaccination is not required but highly encouraged. All attendees must complete a short questionnaire at https://responsiblue.umich.edu/sign-in before entering East Quadrangle.\n\nSusan Crowell is Professor of Art at the University of Michigan\, where she teaches ceramics and holds a joint appointment in the Residential College and the Penny W. Stamps School of Art and Design. A Fulbright Scholar\, she studied architectural ceramics at Centro Internazionale di Ceramica in Rome and directed and taught in the University of Michigan’s Program in Florence. Prof. Crowell conducts research and exhibits her work locally\, nationally and internationally. She has presented projects and exhibitions in Canada (at Banff)\, Japan (at Shigaraki and Miyazaki)\, Italy (Rome\, Venice and Florence)\, Taiwan\, Denmark and China\, as well as in France and the United States\, and she has participated in a variety of international venues and residencies. In 2005 Crowell published I Compianti Sul Christo Morto: Lamentation Groupings in Northern Italy to illuminate the distinguished history of ceramic materials in Quattrocento devotional and didactic sculpture\, and to bring an understanding of their use and potential to contemporary ceramics practitioners. In April of 2016 Prof. Crowell exhibited her work in the conservatories of the Matthaei Botanical Gardens at the University of Michigan\, and in May of 2017\, at the Alden Dow Gardens in Midland\, MI. In 2018 she conducted residencies and research at the Jean Noble Parsons Center for the Study of Art and Science in northern Michigan\, and at A.I.R. Vallauris in Vallauris\, France\, where she exhibited her work in La chapelle de la place Lisnard that October.\n \nFor ten years\, Crowell’s research and artistic practice has focused upon pollen forms and the process of pollination. Deploying her appreciation of the role of technology in revealing the natural world\, she applies the science and aesthetics of botany and apiculture toward the creation of ceramic sculpture\, using cast and hand-built forms. In doing so\, Prof. Crowell presents an expanded view of pollen within the problematics of industrialized honey production\, global commerce in apicultural products\, and genetically modified crops.. More recently\, she has created Thinning the Herd\, an installation of animal forms that addresses endangered species\, and Oppositional\, a commentary on contemporary political behavior in the United States.

Saldamando merges painting and collage\, often using origami paper\, glitter\, or gold leaf in her compositions\, many of which are painted on wood or found surfaces. Her modern portraits and innovative methods challenge social constructs pertaining to individual and collective identity within the broader context of the “American Portrait.” Saldamando’s visual biographies\, which use her friends\, family\, and fellow members of the Chicanx creative community in Los Angeles\, create new ways of seeing and being seen.\n\nOn November 2\, 6:30-8pm\, Shizu Saldamando talks to curator Amanda Krugliak about Shizu's artistic practice and her exhibition *When This is All Over / Cuando Esto Termine*.\n\nAbout the artist: Shizu Saldamando is an LA based mixed media artist with an emphasis on portraiture. She received her B.A. from UCLA’s School of Arts and Architecture and her M.F.A. from California Institute of the Arts. Her work has been exhibited both locally and internationally and experiments with a broad range of surfaces and materials. Saldamando’s practice employs tattooing\, video\, painting and drawing on canvas\, wood\, paper\, and cloth. The work functions as homage\, as well as documentation\, of friends and peers within artistic and musical subcultures around the Los Angeles metropolitan area. She is currently represented by Charlie James Gallery in Los Angeles.\n\nShizu Saldamando is the 2021 Paula and Edwin Sidman Fellow in the Arts at the University of Michigan Institute for the Humanities.

It helps us to confront and address some of the most pressing issues of our time. Art has the power to shift the way we see and understand the world around us\, and the worlds within us. Free Your Mind: Art and Incarceration in Michigan invites us to consider these qualities of art\, while also grappling with the carceral system and the many ways it affects the lives of all of us.\n\nCurrently there are approximately 2.2 million people incarcerated in the United States\, and in Michigan\, there are roughly 33\,000 residents currently serving time in the prison system. Working together with a coalition of more than a dozen organizations and Michigan State University units and departments\, Free Your Mind explores the inner worlds of incarcerated individuals and the fundamental issues that shape conversations around incarceration today. The exhibition centers on four key topics of inquiry: Michigan’s length of sentencing and overcrowding in prisons\; the impact of incarceration on women\; youth incarceration\; and the dangers of COVID-19.\n\nThe exhibition features artists\, poets\, and storytellers of great achievement. The majority of these artists are either currently or formerly incarcerated. Their works on view invite us to consider the role art-making plays in prisons as a liberating force\, and offer unique perspectives on the experience of incarceration. The works also invite us to approach the subject of incarceration with an open mind. Free Your Mind aims to cultivate a greater sense of empathy for those directly impacted by incarceration and an understanding that their growth as individuals is linked to the greater health of the society we all live in\, together.\n\nFree Your Mind: Art and Incarceration in Michigan is organized by the Eli and Edythe Broad Art Museum at Michigan State University and curated by Steven L. Bridges\, Senior Curator and Director of Curatorial Affairs\, and Janie Paul\, Senior Curator and Cofounder\, Annual Exhibitions of Art by Michigan Prisoners\, a project of the Prison Creative Arts Project at the University of Michigan. Support for this exhibition is provided by the Eli and Edythe Broad endowed exhibitions fund.

Despite stereotypical representations that are often rooted in deficit framing\, Black families provide their children access to STEM opportunities\, resources\, capital\, ways of thinking\, behaving\, and sense-making Scholars have identified that Black parents influence the college-going and completion process through practices such as sharing information\, developing expectations around school completion\, positioning students as examples to younger siblings/family members\, and by sharing advice on how to persist when faced with challenging situations.  Building on this work\, I will present some of my research on Black family life and the lineage Black contributions to STEM in order to provide evidence of the ways that Black families incubate STEM learning and aspirations. I have found that families – with emphasis on parents – leverage capital and establish family cultures values and practices that support STEM exploration and confidence.

In spite of their tendency to live in speciose environments\, socioecological theory only models the effect of within-species competition on social dynamics. In this talk\, I explore the nature and magnitude of feeding competition across scales using behavioral\, physiological\, and demographic data on a guild of fruit-eating primates in Uganda. My research indicates that indirect between-species competition plays an integral role in the social lives of primates and shapes their interactions with other individuals\, social groups\, and species.

The artists previously exhibited their work at PCAP's Annual Exhibition of Art by Michigan Prisoners at the University of Michigan. For some\, this exhibition at the MSU Broad Art Lab is the first opportunity to show their work since regaining their freedom. Art-making has helped these artists during the dark years of their incarceration\, and we hope the exhibition inspires visitors to learn more about how to support formerly incarcerated people reconnecting with their communities.\n\nMartín Vargas\, artist and curator of this exhibition\, invites visitors and supporters to not only connect with the artists through their work\, but also during select Art Lab studio hours\, which will feature several of the artists working in person.\n\nConnections\, New Beginnings: Artists in Transition is organized by the Linkage Project of the Prison Creative Arts Project at the University of Michigan in partnership with the Eli and Edythe Broad Art Museum at Michigan State University. The exhibition is curated by Martín Vargas\, Vanessa Mayesky\, Scott Tompkins\, Nico Slowik\, Kimiko Uyeda\, and Jenna VanFleteren.

It is possible to decompose the wage gap into (1) a factor explained by differences in workers' covariates and (2) a residual portion potentially due to discrimination and/or to unobservable factors dictating workers' productivitiy. This work proposes a method to leverage the information contained in the labor market network\, in order to enhance controls for the wage gap decomposition exercise. More precisely\, we contribute to the wage decomposition literature in two main ways: (i) developing an economic-principled network theory approach to control for unobserved worker skills heterogeneity in the presence of potential discrimination\; and (ii) extending existing generic decomposition tools to accommodate for potential lack of overlapping supports in covariates between groups being compared\, which is likely to be the norm in more detailed decompositions. We illustrate the methodology by decomposing the gender wage gap in Brazil.

Linking health outcomes to spatial distributions of built environment features DESCRIPTION:Veronica Berrocal\, PhD\, is an Associate Professor in the Department of Statistics\, University of California at Irvine.\n\nBuilt environment features (BEFs) refer to aspects of the human constructed environment\, which may in turn support or restrict health related behaviors and thus impact health. In this talk we are interested in understanding whether the spatial distribution and quantity of fast food restaurants (FFRs) influence the risk of obesity in schoolchildren. Our analysis on the influence of patterns of FFR occurrence on obesity among Californian schoolchildren has indicated that\, in 2010\, among schools that are consistently assigned to a cluster\, there is a lower odds of obesity amongst 9th graders who attend schools with most distant FFR occurrences in a 1-mile radius as compared to others.\n\nThe goal of Environmental Statistics Week is to disseminate knowledge of advanced statistical methods most relevant to environmental health research with expert-led discussions on statistical concepts.

Esta historia utiliza el lenguaje de lo que no tiene narrativa o el lenguaje/la poesía de la narrativa suprimida. En la poesía Latinx esta historia está escrita en al menos dos idiomas\, ha sido publicada en distintos países\, no respeta límites disciplinares ni soberanías\, y traza su propia genealogía. Es una historia que cuenta cuerpos y habla de lo que esos cuerpos no pudieron decir\; y a falta de cuerpos cuenta ausencias\, desapariciones. En esta charla\, “Contando ausencias\, buscando cuerpos”\, reconstruyo una parte de esa historia\, ofrezco una especie de mapa de topología accidentada\, donde la identificación entre autores y autoras sutura las ausencias dejadas por las respuestas que nunca llegaron\, la justicia que nunca se hizo\, las denuncias reprimidas\, etc.: de la poesía de Daniel Bortzutzky a las imágenes de Raúl Zurita y Patricio Guzmán\; de las Antígona adoptadas por Sara Uribe\, a los cuerpos en la poesía de Natalie Scenters-Zapico\, Ana Castillo y Angela de Hoyos (no necesariamente en este orden).\n\nOfrezco un tour triste pero necesario de los cuerpos descontados por el mundo (en las guerras del capitalismo neoliberal) que la poesía Latinx ha recuperado. \n\nPaula Cucurella es ensayista\, poeta y traductora. Sus poemas han sido publicados en revistas como Círculo de poesía\, Revista Monolito\, La Rabia del Axolote\, Revista Marcapiel\, Revista Laboratorio\, Hasta el Tuétano\, y Acentos Review. Es traductora de *El Can de Kant* de David Johnson (Metales Pesados\, noviembre 2018)\, El Mundo en Llamas de David Johnson (Editorial La Pólvora\, 2019) y co-traductora de *Bottles to the Sea* (SUNY\, 2014)\, y de poemas de Sasha Pimentel\, Rosa Alcalá\, y Eileen Miles. Sus artículos académicos y ensayos literarios han aparecido en The New Centennial Review\, Revista Laboratorio\, Revista Canadiense de Estudios Hispánicos\, entre otras revistas. Es autora de dos libros de poesía *Demasiada luz para hacer poesía* (Dobleaeditores\, 2020) y *Los últimos inanes días* (Dobleaeditores\, 2020). Su primer libro de ensayo *Nicanor Parra\, Jacques Derrida\, y la poesía en tiempos de censura: un ensayo* fue publicado en 2021 (Pólvora Editorial).

Remington Distinguished University Professor of Biostatistics at the University of Michigan\, where he also holds appointments in the Department of Statistics and the Institute for Social Research. He has over 250 publications\, notably on methods for the analysis of data with missing values and model-based survey inference\, and the application of statistics to diverse scientific areas\, including medicine\, demography\, economics\, psychiatry\, aging and the environment. Little is an elected member of the International Statistical Institute\, a Fellow of the American Statistical Association and the American Academy of Arts and Sciences\, and a member of the National Academy of Medicine. In 2005\, Little was awarded the American Statistical Association’s Wilks Medal for research contributions\, and he gave the President’s Invited Address at the Joint Statistical Meetings. He was the COPSS Fisher Lecturer at the 2012 Joint Statistics Meetings.\n\nOn the Definition of Response Propensity\n\nNonresponse propensities play a central role in unit nonresponse adjustments from both design and model-based perspectives\, but are often not clearly defined because of lack of clarity about the variables on which the propensities are conditioned. I propose a definition of response propensity for the purpose of nonresponse adjustments\, where the conditioning is restricted to include the variables measured in the survey as well as design and auxiliary variables measured for respondents and nonrespondents. The proposed definition is justified from both design-based and model-based perspectives. The role of the missing at random assumption is discussed for both perspectives\, for cross-sectional surveys and longitudinal surveys with attrition.

Murder is the third leading cause among Native women and\, compared to non-Hispanic White women\, Native women are two times more likely to go missing and three times more likely to be murdered. Despite this\, less than 5% of these cases are covered by national or international media (Lucchesi & Echo-Hawk\, 2018). Across two studies we aim to identify the psychological factors that may help explain the lack of advocacy for MMIWG. Study 1 (N = 189) and Study 2 (a pre-registered replication\; N = 4000) revealed that perceptions that Natives: 1) have vanished and 2) do not experience racism\, leads people to blame MMIWG victims and overlook systems that maintain the crisis\, ultimately increasing apathy and undermining advocacy efforts. These findings illuminate the detrimental effects stemming from societies lack of understanding for the lived experience of Native Peoples\, in particular their contemporary existence and experiences with racism.

As we all continue to navigate uncertainty and challenges that are inherent in the act of being human\, we benefit from and are grateful for diverse cultures and traditions across the globe. Collectively they have passed on a wide variety of contemplative practices that encourage reflection\, silence\, and centering into the present moment to help us cope and better respond. Engaging in contemplative practices support the individual\, by cultivating a sense of awareness and well-being\, and benefit society by enhancing one’s capacity to create connection and community\, and to become an agent of positive social change. There are many forms of contemplative practices\, including meditation. Mindfulness meditation is one form aimed to help focus our awareness on the present moment as it unfolds\, moment to moment\, without judgment. Research on mindfulness continues to find a wide range of benefits. In short\, Mindfulness may be viewed as cognitive training that bolsters our ability to handle stress\, poor mood\, and threat. It also increases our capacity to focus our attention on what is most important to us and to be more compassionate to ourselves and to others.\n\nOn Wednesdays from 12:15 - 12:45 pm\, we come together in community to practice this skill in an open and supportive virtual space. Whether you are new to mindfulness meditation or are an experienced practitioner each session is designed to offer guidance and support to assist you. Join this supportive community and experience the gift of present moment awareness.

Attendees learn from leading positive organizational scholars and connect with our community of academics\, students\, staff\, and leaders. \n\nAbout the talk: \n\nIntelligence is usually seen as the ability to think and learn\, but in a rapidly changing world\, there’s another set of cognitive skills that might matter more: the ability to rethink and unlearn. In our daily lives\, too many of us favor the comfort of conviction over the discomfort of doubt. We listen to opinions that make us feel good\, instead of ideas that make us think hard. We see disagreement as a threat to our egos\, rather than an opportunity to learn. We surround ourselves with people who agree with our conclusions\, when we should be gravitating toward those who challenge our thought process. The result is that our beliefs get brittle long before our bones. \n\nJoin us for a virtual fireside chat with Adam Grant\, Wharton’s top-rated professor and the #1 New York Times bestselling author of Originals and Give and Take. He’ll share his bold ideas and rigorous evidence from his new book\, Think Again\, that reveals we don’t have to believe everything we think or internalize everything we feel. Learn how to let go of views that are no longer serving you well and prize mental flexibility\, humility\, and curiosity over foolish consistency. Questioning your opinions and opening other people’s minds can position you for excellence at work and wisdom in life. \n\nAbout Grant: \n\nAdam Grant has been Wharton’s top-rated professor for 7 straight years. As an organizational psychologist\, he is a leading expert on how we can find motivation and meaning\, and live more generous and creative lives. He has been recognized as one of the world’s 10 most influential management thinkers and Fortune’s 40 under 40. \n\n​He is the #1 New York Times bestselling author of 5 books that have sold millions of copies and been translated into 35 languages: Think Again\, Give and Take\, Originals\, Option B\, and Power Moves. His books have been named among the year’s best by Amazon\, Apple\, the Financial Times\, and the Wall Street Journal. His New York Times article on languishing is one of the most-shared articles of 2021. \n\nAdam hosts WorkLife\, a chart-topping TED original podcast. His TED talks on original thinkers and givers and takers have been viewed more than 30 million times. He received a standing ovation at TED in 2016 and was voted the audience’s favorite speaker at The Nantucket Project. His speaking and consulting clients include Google\, the NBA\, Bridgewater\, and the Gates Foundation. He writes on work and psychology for the New York Times\, has served on the Defense Innovation Board at the Pentagon\, and has been honored as a Young Global Leader by the World Economic Forum.

Panic\, Pestilence and Religious Coping\; Public Health and Pandemics across the MENA: A psychological Perspective on Arab Countries DESCRIPTION:The 2021 CMENAS Colloquium Series theme is \"Public Health and Pandemics across the MENA: A Multidisciplinary Exhibit.\" \n\nPlease register to attend at https://myumi.ch/2D3NM.\n \nAbout the Presentations:\n\n*Panic\, Pestilence and Religious Coping*\nPositive religious coping has frequently been associated with better mental health outcomes when dealing with stressful life events (e.g.\, natural disasters\, domestic abuse\, divorce). The COVID-19 pandemic\, and the associated infection prevention and control measures (curfew\, quarantine\, restricted travel\, social distancing)\, represent a society-wide stressor. This presentation will explored positive religious coping in general with a particular focus on Muslims. It will look at research examining responses to the early stages of the pandemic among religious and secular communities. We will argue that among some religious communities\, positive religious coping was inversely related to the development of psychopathology during the pandemic. We conclude that positive (but not negative) religious coping during infectious disease outbreaks may help some individuals reduce their risk of mental health problems. National pandemic preparedness plans may benefit from including a focus on religion and religious coping\n \n*Public Health and Pandemics across the MENA: A psychological Perspective on Arab Countries*\nCOVID-19 pandemic’s mental health impact on Arab countries is under-researched. The goal of this presentation is to share the results of two studies conducted longitudinally in Arab countries. The first study was conducted on 7 Arab countries (N=1743\; conducted from 4/28/2020 to 5/25/2020.)\, and the second on 11 Arab countries (N=2734\; conducted from January to March 2021\, 10 months after the first study). A questionnaire including measures of COVID-19 traumatic stress\, PTSD\, depression\, anxiety\, and cumulative stressors and trauma was distributed anonymously online\, both times. ANOVA results indicated significant differences in COVID19 traumatic stress\, PTSD\, depression\, and anxiety between the countries. Post-hoc analysis indicated that Egypt is significantly higher than all the other Arab countries in COVID-19 traumatic stress\, PTSD\, anxiety\, and depression due\, at least in part\, to higher density\, lower socioeconomic status\, and the actual higher rates of infection. The subsample from Palestine and Iraq had a significantly higher cumulative trauma load than the other Arab countries but did not have higher levels of COVID-19 traumatic stress or PTSD. Hierarchical regression indicated that COVID-19 traumatic stress accounted for significant variance above and beyond the variance accounted for by previous cumulative stressors and traumas. In the second study\, which was conducted ten months later\, we found that the level of infection skyrocketed\; however\, the level of PTSD\, depression and anxiety were almost stable or slightly decreased. The level of COVID-19 stressors slightly decreased\, but Egypt still had the highest COVID-19 stressors. The results reflect increased adjustment over time\, even with increased infection and mortality.\n \nAbout the Speakers:\n\nJustin Thomas is professor of experimental psychology with an interest in the interface between culture\, religion and psychopathology/wellbeing\n \nIbrahim A. Kira\, PhD\, is the director of Center for Cumulative Trauma Studies\, Stone\, GA\, & affiliate of Center for Stress\, Trauma and Resiliency\, Georgia State University\, Atlanta\, GA. His research interest focuses on the dynamics of cumulative stressors/traumas and Stressors/traumas proliferation. He is the lead developer of the developmentally based trauma framework (DBTF) that focuses on the conceptual development and empirical validation of a novel conceptual paradigm of the dynamics of stressors/ traumas\, especially in multiply traumatized populations. He is the first author of over 85 articles and chapter books on the subject.\n\nThe following text will be included on all II events unless you indicate otherwise:If there is anything we can do to make this event accessible to you\, please contact Kristin Waterbury at waterbuk@umich.edu.\n\nPlease be aware that advance notice is necessary as some accommodations may require more time for the university to arrange.

Examples include capacitive\, inductive\, and wave-based thrusters. Generally\, the fundamental application of these concepts is an rf heated plasma\, expanded through a divergent magnetic nozzle. When a wave is proposed as the plasma generation mechanism\, certain physical parameters are proscribed by the dispersion relation\, which serves to relate plasma parameters to the thruster design. Some considerations of these impacts on plasma sources can be examined in basic models of the wave dispersion\, absorption\, and coupling. The conservation laws in these sources provide additional constraints. The interaction of these phenomena will be discussed from a modeling and experimental perspective for a helicon source in terms of the scaling of density with power\, geometry\, and coupling\, with implications for wave-based thrusters.\n\nAbout the Speaker: \nDr. James Gilland is a Senior Scientist at the Ohio Aerospace Institute\, specializing in advanced plasma propulsion (300 W to 300 MW)\, including Hall thrusters (HTs)\, magnetoplasmadynamic thrusters\, and plasma wave thrusters. He currently supports NASA Solar Electric Propulsion HT development for the NASA Gateway. Dr. Gilland has performed system and mission analyses of a range of nuclear and solar electric propulsion systems\; and served as the Lead Nuclear Electric Propulsion (NEP) Engineer in NASA’s Nuclear Propulsion Office\, performing analysis of multimegawatt NEP power and propulsion systems for human space exploration. He is a past NASA Innovative and Advanced Concepts Fellow for his work on propellantless propulsion using Alfven plasma waves.

At this virtual event\, three recipients will present on their career work and answer audience questions.\nSpeakers\nJohn Ayanian\, Alice Hamilton Distinguished University Professor of Medicine and Healthcare Policy\, Professor of Internal Medicine\, Medical School Professor of Health Management and Policy\, School of Public Health Professor of Public Policy\, Gerald R. Ford School of Public Policy\, Director\, Institute for Healthcare Policy and Innovation\nJohn Z. Ayanian\, M.D.\, M.P.P. is the Alice Hamilton Distinguished University Professor of Medicine and Healthcare Policy\, Professor of Health Management and Policy\, Professor of Public Policy\, and a practicing general internist at the University of Michigan. He has served since 2012 as the inaugural Director of the Institute for Healthcare Policy and Innovation which includes 675 faculty members from 15 schools and colleges at the university. His research focuses on access to care\, quality of care\, and health equity. Since 2014\, he has led a multi-disciplinary team conducting the federally authorized evaluation of the Healthy Michigan Plan\, which expanded Medicaid to one million adults in Michigan. Dr. Ayanian is an elected member of the National Academy of Medicine\, American Society for Clinical Investigation\, Association of American Physicians\, and Alpha Omega Alpha\; and a Master of the American College of Physicians. He has received the John Eisenberg National Award for Career Achievement in Research from the Society of General Internal Medicine and the Distinguished Investigator Award from AcademyHealth.\n“The Quest for Health Equity”\nThe United States faces a crisis of health disparities exacerbated by the COVID-19 pandemic\, which has unmasked deep-seated racial\, ethnic\, and socioeconomic inequities in U.S. society. Dr. Ayanian will discuss how the field of health equity has developed over the course of his academic career\, including his research and policy work focused on improving access to care\, quality of care\, and health outcomes by race\, ethnicity\, and insurance coverage in the U.S. health care system. He will also discuss the impact of the Affordable Care Act and continuing challenges to achieving health equity and racial justice in the United States.\n \nEarl Lewis\,Thomas C. Holt Distinguished University Professor of History\, Afroamerican and African Studies\, and Public Policy\, Professor of History\, Professor of Afroamerican and African Studies\,\nCollege of Literature\, Science\, and the Arts\, Professor of Public Policy\, Gerald R. Ford School of Public Policy\nSocial historian\, award-winning author\, and educational leader\, Earl Lewis\, is founding director of the Center for Social Solution as well as a professor of history\, Afroamerican and African Studies\, and public policy. President Emeritus of The Andrew W. Mellon Foundation\, he previously served as provost of Emory University (2004-12)\, and before that as Vice Provost and Dean of the Rackham Graduate School (1998-2004). A frequent lecturer and the author or editor of nine books\, scores of essays\, articles and commentaries\, he is a member of a number of national committees and boards of directors or trustees. He recently served as president of the Organization of American Historians. An alum of Concordia College-Moorhead (1978) and the University of Minnesota (Ph.D.\, history\, 1984)\, he is the recipient of twelve honorary degrees\, a member of the Council on Foreign Relations and a fellow of the American Academy of Arts and Sciences.\n“How Questions of Power\, Race\, and Identity Shaped a Career”\nWhen assessing a career\, seldom are we invited to turn inward and examine the factors that contributed to a life’s professional pursuits. In considering what has motivated me to tackle certain questions over the arc of a career\, I find myself returning to key moments in my transition from adolescence to adulthood. Growing up in the segregated South\, and becoming a part of the transitional generation\, those young people who massively desegregated southern public and private schools in the late ’60s and early ’70s\, in hindsight\, my school years deeply shaped the questions I have asked about the past and the ways in which my scholarship and institution-building have cohered over decades and across multiple institutions.\nThis lecture revisits those framing moments while focusing on questions of power\, race\, and identity\, three themes that reoccur as focal points in several books\, essays\, and articles. Such a focus allows us to examine the ways African Americans made history and became the subject of history. This analytical lens updates an article that I published in 1995\, “To Turn as on a Pivot\,” which situated more than a century of scholarship about Black Americans and argued for attention to overlapping disaporas.\n \nJanet Smith\, Martha L. Ludwig Distinguished University Professor of Biological Chemistry\, Medical School\, Margaret J. Hunter Collegiate Professor in the Life Sciences\, Associate Director\, Life Sciences Institute\, Professor of Biophysics\, College of Literature\, Science\, and the Arts\nJanet L. Smith uses X-ray crystallography to study physiologically important proteins and how they function.\nShe has helped determine the structure of many biosynthetic enzymes and several viral proteins\, including those associated with the dengue\, Zika\, and West Nile viruses. Throughout her career\, first at Purdue University and since 2005 as director of the University of Michigan Center for Structural Biology in the Life Sciences Institute (LSI)\, she has coupled a passion for developing new methodologies in structural biology to discovering insights into the biology of macromolecules. Professor Smith played an important role in U-M’s response to the COVID-19 pandemic by advancing development of a test to detect anti-SARS-CoV-2 antibodies. Associate director of the LSI since 2017\, she is also an outstanding teacher and mentor and lectures internationally on structural biology and synchrotron radiation. She is a member of the National Academy of Sciences and received The Protein Society Dorothy Crowfoot Hodgkin Award in 2021.\n“A Path to Discovering Biology in Protein Structure”\nScientific discovery is a journey along a path that starts with a question. And while each piece of an answer to the question brings new information\, it also creates a fork in the path—reshaping the question\, and our journey\, as we decide which direction to take. This lecture will discuss how that path has unfolded not only in my research journey\, but in my personal and career journey from a bookish childhood to a field of high-tech scientific research. My love of reading pulled me towards scholarship\, the logic of molecules drew me to chemistry\, the creativity of nature inspired my focus on biochemistry\, the beauty of proteins lured me into protein crystallography\, and the need for new technology in crystallography drove me to service for the scientific community. By exploring the twists and turns that opened with each new discovery\, I’ve had the opportunity to witness how new technologies in my field helped many scientists “see” protein structures quickly\, and I’ve experienced the joy of connecting protein structures to biological functions. My path through research has taken many unpredictable turns into new fields\, while the love of reading that started me down this road remains unchanged.\nRegister at https://myumi.ch/WwE7Y UID:88550-21655073@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/88550 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES: LOCATION:Off Campus Location CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20211103T181551 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20211103T160000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20211103T170000 SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Department Colloquium | The Search for Physics Beyond the Standard Model DESCRIPTION:Zoom link: https://umich.zoom.us/j/94692610056\n\nThe LHC has been spectacularly successful at verifying the predictions of the Standard Model of particle physics.

Immune cells use hundreds of biochemical reactions to respond to their environment\, become activated\, and kill cancer cells. Understanding the complexity of these reaction networks requires computational tools and mathematical models. We combine detailed\, mechanistic modeling with machine learning to study these networks\, better understand cancer and immune cells\, and predict ways to control tumor growth. In this talk\, I will present our recent work aimed at predicting the dynamics of immune cell behaviors across three scales: intracellular signaling pathways in CAR T cells\, the collective behavior of a heterogeneous population of immune cells\, and tumor-immune interactions at the tissue scale. Our models generate novel mechanistic insight into immune cell activation and predict the effects of immunotherapeutic strategies. \n\n\nBiography\nStacey D. Finley is the Gordon S.

Despite the apparent disorder of this process\, statistical properties of crumpled sheets exhibit striking reproducibility. Recent experiments have shown that when a sheet is repeatedly crumpled\, the total crease length grows logarithmically [1]. This talk will offer insight into this surprising result by developing a correspondence between crumpling and fragmentation processes. We show how crumpling can be viewed as fragmenting the sheet into flat facets that are outlined by the creases\, and we use this model to reproduce the characteristic logarithmic scaling of total crease length\, thereby supplying a missing physical basis for the observed phenomenon [2].\n\nThis study was made possible by large-scale data analysis of crease networks from crumpling experiments. We will describe recent work to use the same data with machine learning methods to probe the physical rules governing crumpling. We will look at how augmenting experimental data with synthetically generated data can improve predictive power and provide physical insight [3].\n\n[1] O. Gottesman et al.\, Commun.

Using an analytical decomposition\, we first identify three transmission channels: intertemporal substitution\, expenditure switching\, and aggregate income. Quantitatively\, expenditure switching plays a prominent role for monetary policy\, while macroprudential policy operates almost entirely through intertemporal substitution. Turning to the normative analysis\, we show that the risk of a liquidity trap generates a monetary policy tradeoff between stabilizing output today and reducing capital flows to lower the likelihood of a future recession. However\, leaning against the wind is not necessarily optimal\, even in the absence of capital controls. Finally\, we argue that contrary to emerging policy concerns\, capital controls are not beggar-thy-neighbor and can enhance global macroeconomic stability.\n\n* To join the seminar\, please contact at econ.events@umich.edu UID:87745-21645516@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/87745 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Economics,seminar LOCATION:Lorch Hall - 201 CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20211118T123040 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20211103T160000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20211103T170000 SUMMARY:Careers / Jobs:ViacomCBS - Consumer Products Info Session DESCRIPTION:ViacomCBS Consumer Products along with Campus & Early Career Recruiting will be hosting an information series with the goal of educatingundergraduate students about careers in Consumer Products and Licensing. \nBelow is the full list of sessions that we are offering for this series:\nConsumer Products: Insights\, Licensing\, Marketing\, and Creative\n• Thursday\, 10/21 4pm EST\n• Wednesday 11/3 4pm PST\n• Tuesday 11/9 4pmEST UID:88534-21654776@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/88534 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES: LOCATION: CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20211118T123045 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20211103T170000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20211103T180000 SUMMARY:Careers / Jobs:#LifeatCapitalOne as an Analyst DESCRIPTION:Join us to learn more about Internship and Full Time opportunities in our Analyst Development Program and how to apply.

Indigenous Peoples have for millennia developed a sense of awareness of the keen consciousness of the Earth to enhance embodied knowledge and a relational capacity that reverences life based on collaboration and compassion. The cosmologies that come from such insight incite acknowledgment and gratitude to all our relations. Interdependence does not stay as a mere ideal\, it manifests as a perceived\, shared truth engaged in action. Come together to explore our exceptional capacity of reconnection to the nourishing\, relationship\, empowering and transformative force of the Earth. \n\nYuria Celidwin Bio\nI am of Indigenous Nahua and Maya descent from the highlands of Chiapas\, Mexico. My interests are the interdisciplinary approaches to the experience of self-transcendence\, its embodiment in contemplative practice\, and how it enhances prosocial behavior (ethics\, compassion\, kindness\, reverence\, and a sense of awe and sacredness) across Indigenous contemplative traditions. As a scholar\, I work on the intersection of Indigenous studies\, cultural psychology\, and contemplative studies. My thesis on the “Ethics of Belonging” is an earth-based ecological relational experience that engenders an ethos of conscious social responsibility for self\, community\, and environment. Within this work\, I examine how self-identity relates to cultural narratives and how reconstructing them can transform our times’ social and racial injustices. I teach Indigenous epistemologies\, spirituality and pioneered the Indigenous contemplative experience within contemplative studies. As an activist\, I strive for Indigenous representation and the revitalization of Indigenous wisdom as sophisticated systems of contemplative insight. I emphasize the reclamation\, regeneration\, and transmission of Indigenous ways of knowing and the advancement of Indigenous rights and the rights of the Earth for social and environmental justice.  \n\nPresented by the University of Michigan Program in Creativity and Consciousness Studies in collaboration with the Center for Creative Studies (Detroit) UID:88502-21654652@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/88502 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Free,Music LOCATION:Off Campus Location CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20211027T154651 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20211103T193000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20211103T210000 SUMMARY:Presentation:Native American Heritage Month: Opening Ceremony DESCRIPTION:Join us for the opening ceremony kicking off Native American Heritage Month in partnership with the office of Multi-Ethnic Student Affairs. As we prepare for a month of engaging speakers and presentations surrounding the conversation of intersectional Native/Indigenous identities and important conversations regarding Native representation\, we will be launching our first event by welcoming Dr. Adrienne Keene\, prominent speaker and activist in the Native community. \n\n\nDr. Adrienne Keene (Cherokee Nation) is a Native scholar\, writer\, blogger\, podcast host\, and activist. She is passionate about reframing how the world sees contemporary Native cultures. She is the creator and author of Native Appropriations\, a blog discussing cultural appropriation and stereotypes of Native peoples in fashion\, film\, music\, and other forms of pop culture. She is the author of Notable Native People: 50 Indigenous Leaders\, Dreamers\, and Changemakers from Past and Present (October 2021 - Penguin Random House/Ten Speed Press). And she is co-host (with Matika Wilbur (Swinomish and Tulalip)) of the popular podcast\, All My Relations\, that explores what it means to be a Native person in contemporary America.\n\nThrough her writing and activism\, Keene questions and problematizes the ways Indigenous peoples are represented\, asking for celebrities\, large corporations\, and designers to consider the ways they incorporate \"Native\" elements into their work. She is very interested in the way Native peoples are using social and new media to challenge misrepresentations and present counter-narratives that showcase true Native cultures and identities.\n\nRegister here: https://myumi.ch/O41re UID:88486-21654312@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/88486 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Academics,Activism,All Majors Welcome,cultural,Culture,dialogue,Discussion,Diversity,first year students,heritage month,Identity,Interdisciplinary,Intersectionality,Leadership,MESA,multi-ethnic student affairs,Native American,Native American Heritage Month,Rackham LOCATION:Off Campus Location CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20210723T115030 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20211103T200000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20211103T220000 SUMMARY:Performance:Hot Club of Cowtown // Davina and the Vagabonds DESCRIPTION:*By purchasing a ticket you agree that you and your guests will comply with all laws\, orders\, ordinances\, regulations and health and safety guidance adopted by the State of Michigan\, the County of Washtenaw and The Ark\, including any guidelines in place at the time of the show.

Please review The Ark’s current COVID-related information before attending a show.*\n\nSince its beginnings in the late 1990s\, the Hot Club of Cowtown’s star has continued to rise as its reputation for jaw-dropping virtuosity and unforgettable live shows has become the band’s global brand. Lauded for its “down-home melodies and exuberant improvisation” (The Times\, London)\, the Hot Club has always woven a combination of seemingly disparate styles together to its own magical effect\, setting up camp “at that crossroads where country meets jazz and chases the blues away” (The Independent)\, remaining “conscious always that above all else\, the music is for dancing and an old-fashioned good time” (New York Times). The band’s musical alchemy has been described as “another breathless journey in the Texas tardis” (The Times\, London)\, while American Songwriter observed that “the excellent three players of this band could be doing anything but have chosen to honor the greats of jazz and swing with their sound.” The Belfast Telegraph calls the Hot Club of Cowtown “a pretty much perfect country trio at the very top of their game\,” and the New York Times\, in a live review the trio as armed with “an arsenal full of technique and joy.”\n\nDATV’s shows are filled with New Orleans charm\, Memphis soul swagger\, dark theatrical moments that evoke Kurt Weill\, and tender gospel passages. Davina’s voice and stage presence defy category in a different way. Davina has been compared to Etta James\, Amy Winehouse\, Janis Joplin\, Billie Holiday and Betty Boop\, but comparisons don’t suffice: Sowers is a true original.

Saldamando merges painting and collage\, often using origami paper\, glitter\, or gold leaf in her compositions\, many of which are painted on wood or found surfaces. Her modern portraits and innovative methods challenge social constructs pertaining to individual and collective identity within the broader context of the “American Portrait.” Saldamando’s visual biographies\, which use her friends\, family\, and fellow members of the Chicanx creative community in Los Angeles\, create new ways of seeing and being seen.\n\nOn November 2\, 6:30-8pm\, Shizu Saldamando talks to curator Amanda Krugliak about Shizu's artistic practice and her exhibition *When This is All Over / Cuando Esto Termine*.\n\nAbout the artist: Shizu Saldamando is an LA based mixed media artist with an emphasis on portraiture. She received her B.A. from UCLA’s School of Arts and Architecture and her M.F.A. from California Institute of the Arts. Her work has been exhibited both locally and internationally and experiments with a broad range of surfaces and materials. Saldamando’s practice employs tattooing\, video\, painting and drawing on canvas\, wood\, paper\, and cloth. The work functions as homage\, as well as documentation\, of friends and peers within artistic and musical subcultures around the Los Angeles metropolitan area. She is currently represented by Charlie James Gallery in Los Angeles.\n\nShizu Saldamando is the 2021 Paula and Edwin Sidman Fellow in the Arts at the University of Michigan Institute for the Humanities.

New areas and new directions have emerged (such as population genetics and biomeasure collection within national population-based surveys)\, largely as a result of increasing cross-disciplinary collaborations encouraged by the Centers. This successful model represents multiple centers engaged in a range of research and infrastructure activities within thematic research areas. There is wide recognition within the NIA and in the field that the full promise of the center mechanism itself and\, indeed\, the pace of future scientific discovery in aging will depend on scholars continuing to bridge disciplinary divides.\n\nThe Research Centers Collaborative Network (RCCN) was established “to catalyze cross-disciplinary research across the NIA Center Programs\,” which include D&E Centers/D&E Centers on AD/ADRD\, Edward R. Roybal Centers for Translational Research on Aging\, the Resource Centers for Minority Aging Research\, the Claude D. Pepper Older American Independence Centers\, the Nathan Shock Centers of Excellence in the Basic Biology of Aging\, and the Alzheimer’s Disease Research Centers. To promote cross-NIA Center research and support junior scholars\, the RCCN funds pilot research awards. This meeting will feature two RCCN pilot projects that each include a research affiliate of one of the D&E Centers/D&E Centers on AD/ADRD in collaboration with researchers at other NIA Centers. Each team will present preliminary results of their pilot project and share insights on the opportunities and challenges of cross-disciplinary collaboration.\n\nSponsored by the Coordinating Center for the Centers on the Demography & Economics of Aging and Alzheimer’s Disease and Alzheimer’s Related Dementias.

It helps us to confront and address some of the most pressing issues of our time. Art has the power to shift the way we see and understand the world around us\, and the worlds within us. Free Your Mind: Art and Incarceration in Michigan invites us to consider these qualities of art\, while also grappling with the carceral system and the many ways it affects the lives of all of us.\n\nCurrently there are approximately 2.2 million people incarcerated in the United States\, and in Michigan\, there are roughly 33\,000 residents currently serving time in the prison system. Working together with a coalition of more than a dozen organizations and Michigan State University units and departments\, Free Your Mind explores the inner worlds of incarcerated individuals and the fundamental issues that shape conversations around incarceration today. The exhibition centers on four key topics of inquiry: Michigan’s length of sentencing and overcrowding in prisons\; the impact of incarceration on women\; youth incarceration\; and the dangers of COVID-19.\n\nThe exhibition features artists\, poets\, and storytellers of great achievement. The majority of these artists are either currently or formerly incarcerated. Their works on view invite us to consider the role art-making plays in prisons as a liberating force\, and offer unique perspectives on the experience of incarceration. The works also invite us to approach the subject of incarceration with an open mind. Free Your Mind aims to cultivate a greater sense of empathy for those directly impacted by incarceration and an understanding that their growth as individuals is linked to the greater health of the society we all live in\, together.\n\nFree Your Mind: Art and Incarceration in Michigan is organized by the Eli and Edythe Broad Art Museum at Michigan State University and curated by Steven L. Bridges\, Senior Curator and Director of Curatorial Affairs\, and Janie Paul\, Senior Curator and Cofounder\, Annual Exhibitions of Art by Michigan Prisoners\, a project of the Prison Creative Arts Project at the University of Michigan. Support for this exhibition is provided by the Eli and Edythe Broad endowed exhibitions fund.

DESCRIPTION:This event is part of the Thursday Morning Lecture Series on Our Changing Economic Landscape.\n\nWhat is capitalism? What forms does it take in the world today? What forms did it take in the past? What forms will it take in the future? As economic systems go\, has it performed well or poorly? \n\nIn this lecture\, Professor Jim Adams will discuss the meaning of capitalism\, the criteria we might use to evaluate capitalism\, and the varieties of capitalism that have existed over time and across the globe. One lesson to emerge from this exercise will be a recognition that governments and markets are not opposites: The varieties of capitalism consist of diverse ways of combining government and market mechanisms to achieve socially desirable outcomes. Important measures of \"outcome\" include not only GDP per capita but also the distribution of health\, happiness\, income\, and wealth.\n\nBorn in New York City and raised in East Lansing\, Michigan\, Professor Adams received three degrees in economics (AB summa cum laude\, AM\, and PhD) from Harvard University. In 1973\, he joined the faculty of the University of Michigan\, where his current title is Shorey Peterson Professor of Industrial Organization\, Arthur F. Thurnau Professor\, and Professor of Economics. Adams has held numerous administrative positions\, including chair of his department\, associate dean of his college\, director of the Program in Philosophy\, Politics\, and Economics\, and director of the Center for West European Studies. He has held visiting professorships at six European universities\, including the University of Paris I Panthéon-Sorbonne and the University of Paris Dauphine. \n\nHe has advised the Federal Trade Commission\, the U.S. Ambassador to France\, and several foreign policy departments of the U.S. government. The father of two grown sons\, he is married to a professor emerita of pediatric rheumatology.\n\nPre-registration for this event is required.

U-M Industrial and Operations Engineering graduate students and faculty are especially encouraged to attend.\n\nTitle: Industrial & Systems Engineering at the University of Florida and Recent Automation and Situation Awareness Modeling Research\n\nAbstract:\nIn this talk\, I will provide information on the current state of the Department of Industrial and Systems Engineering (ISE) at the University of Florida (UF)\, including faculty\, research thrusts and laboratories\, as well as funding and some current projects. The second part of the talk will focus on methods of modeling degrees of automation in human-in-the-loop systems as well as the impact on operator situation awareness (SA) responses. We contend that methods of some prior research do not represent engineering models\, per se. Furthermore\, discrete and ordinal characteristics of other models limit reliable prediction of operator performance with automation. This research defines an “automation rate” (AR) function involving classification of all system functions according to stages of information processing\, calculation of the AR for each stage\, setting weighting factors for these rates\, and finally obtaining an overall AR for the system. The practicality and feasibility of this model are verified through a case study analysis. In addition\, we formulate a new model of operator SA responses to AR\, based on existing empirical research findings. Through the case analysis and mathematical proof\, the rationality of the form of these new models is demonstrated. This work lays the foundation for subsequent optimization of automated system design for operator SA. This study provides an example of current human-systems engineering research through the UF ISE Department. \n\nBio:\nDavid Kaber is currently the Dean’s Leadership Professor and Chair of the Department of Industrial and Systems Engineering at the University of Florida (UF).

It plays a central role in modern numerical weather and climate prediction. Due to its ability to integrate all sources of observations and Earth system modeling information\, data assimilation has also been a powerful tool for model parameter estimation and optimization\, reanalysis\, model error estimation and correction\, coupled Earth system modeling\, ensemble forecasting\, and observing system development.\nWith remarkable advances in machine learning and deep learning (ML/DL) techniques\, there is rapidly growing interest in applying ML/DL in Earth system modeling and prediction. While ML/DL provides different ways to deal with the information and modeling\, it shares similar aims with data assimilation: to learn about the world using observations. This similarity makes it conceptually feasible to integrate standard ML/DL techniques and ideas into data assimilation workflows for improved Earth system modeling and prediction.\n \nThis seminar emphasizes recent accomplishments in atmospheric data assimilation with the most recent research results on satellite and radar data assimilation for improved severe weather forecasting\, coupled land-atmosphere data assimilation for enhanced representation of land-atmosphere interactions\, and data assimilation in support of observing system development. The recent application of ML/DL in weather and climate prediction will be reviewed. The future direction of Earth system modeling and prediction with combined data assimilation and ML/DL methods will be discussed\, particularly in the context of predicting weather and climate extremes\, as noted in the recent United Nations Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change report.

Register here: https://myumi.ch/xm1G9\n\nDescription: In the disruption caused by any disaster\, there is always the possibility of new forms of political engagement. Out of chaos can come anger and sometimes new forms of action around the recognition of grievances that have become more obvious. In the best of possible cases\, actors form new alliances and collective goals\, as well as strategies to reach those goals. Under these conditions\, “recovery” can take ambiguous meanings because recovery often means a return to an older state of affairs\, the state of affairs that led to the disaster in the first place\, and maybe even the suppression of these new politics. Showing video clips from the largest collection of digital video narratives of the 2011 triple disasters in northern Japan (Voices from Tohoku)\, Professor Slater will point to the important intersection between politics and recovery in two ways as experienced by women in the area. First\, he will look at the top-down efforts by the Japanese state to “manage” the immediate recovery period (the politics of recovery) and then later on\, the way in which different groups of Japanese women sought to recover some sense of political agency as raw emotions of 2011 faded into the 10-year anniversary of the disaster (the recovery of politics).\n\nBiography: David H. Slater is a professor of cultural anthropology at Sophia University\, Tokyo. His research interests include capitalism\, youth\, labor\, semiotics\, and urban space. Recently\, his work has focused on the 3.11 Tohoku disasters. He is archiver and curator of Voices from Tohoku: Digital Archive of Disaster\, Recovery and Mobilization\, the largest collection of digital oral narratives of the 3.11 triple disasters (https://tohokukaranokoe.org/).\n\nThis event presented by the Eisenberg Institute for Historical Studies.

When skyrmions arise in systems with band topology\, Berry-phase effects can endow them with an electric charge in addition to their magnetic moment\, with important implications for electrical transport. I’ll start by highlighting recent experimental work using scanning tunneling microscopy to “image” charged valley skyrmions in the quantum Hall states of graphene. I’ll then discuss how skyrmions may arise in magic angle twisted bilayer graphene. In this system skyrmions are predicted to be charge-2 bosons which may Bose condense\, potentially giving a new route to electron-mediated superconductivity. \n UID:86564-21634901@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/86564 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Physics,Science LOCATION:Off Campus Location CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20211021T135552 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20211104T160000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20211104T170000 SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Professor Jianming Qian\, The David M.

And\, how to design situations or objects that stimulate activity and participation\, that could lead to a transformation in a viewer or a social context? During this talk\, Amsterdam-based designer Tereza Ruller (studio The Rodina) tries to answer these questions. She identifies performative components in graphic design processes and results. With examples of her recent projects\, Ruller proposes the term “performative design” for a practice that incorporates graphic design\, playfulness\, bodies\, action\, and eventness (understanding this as a unique time and space). Performance becomes an alternative mode of value production and a space for critique and imagination.The Rodina (Tereza and Vit Ruller) is a post-critical design studio with an experimental practice drenched in strategies of performance art\, play and subversion. The Rodina invents ways in which experience\, knowledge and relations are produced and preserved. In their work\, Tereza and Vit often explore the spatial and interactive possibilities of virtual environments as a space for new thoughts and aesthetics that come forward from between culture and technology. The studio works mostly for cultural clients such as Harvard GSD (USA)\, Sonic Acts Foundation (NL)\, and Hyundai Card Library Seoul (KR).\nHow to Watch\nThis Penny Stamps Speaker Series event will premiere on November 4\, 2021 at 8pm and can be viewed on this page\, at dptv.org\, or on the Penny Stamps Series Facebook page.

Stamps School of Art and Design Professor of Art Susan Crowell presents\, among other works\, a series of wall plaques depicting endangered species. In Professor Crowell's effort to\, \"...question our interactions with the animal world and our impact upon it\,\" she has installed images of elephants and donkeys as protagonists and antagonists in political struggle\, and polar bears as victims of global warming. \n\n\"Animal/ Vegetable/Mineral presents an occasion to speak about my most compelling interests—plants and animals--within the mineral rubrics of clay\,\" she says.\n\nThis event is free and open to the public. Masks are required for all attendees. Vaccination is not required but highly encouraged. All attendees must complete a short questionnaire at https://responsiblue.umich.edu/sign-in before entering East Quadrangle.\n\nSusan Crowell is Professor of Art at the University of Michigan\, where she teaches ceramics and holds a joint appointment in the Residential College and the Penny W. Stamps School of Art and Design. A Fulbright Scholar\, she studied architectural ceramics at Centro Internazionale di Ceramica in Rome and directed and taught in the University of Michigan’s Program in Florence. Prof. Crowell conducts research and exhibits her work locally\, nationally and internationally. She has presented projects and exhibitions in Canada (at Banff)\, Japan (at Shigaraki and Miyazaki)\, Italy (Rome\, Venice and Florence)\, Taiwan\, Denmark and China\, as well as in France and the United States\, and she has participated in a variety of international venues and residencies. In 2005 Crowell published I Compianti Sul Christo Morto: Lamentation Groupings in Northern Italy to illuminate the distinguished history of ceramic materials in Quattrocento devotional and didactic sculpture\, and to bring an understanding of their use and potential to contemporary ceramics practitioners. In April of 2016 Prof. Crowell exhibited her work in the conservatories of the Matthaei Botanical Gardens at the University of Michigan\, and in May of 2017\, at the Alden Dow Gardens in Midland\, MI. In 2018 she conducted residencies and research at the Jean Noble Parsons Center for the Study of Art and Science in northern Michigan\, and at A.I.R. Vallauris in Vallauris\, France\, where she exhibited her work in La chapelle de la place Lisnard that October.\n \nFor ten years\, Crowell’s research and artistic practice has focused upon pollen forms and the process of pollination. Deploying her appreciation of the role of technology in revealing the natural world\, she applies the science and aesthetics of botany and apiculture toward the creation of ceramic sculpture\, using cast and hand-built forms. In doing so\, Prof. Crowell presents an expanded view of pollen within the problematics of industrialized honey production\, global commerce in apicultural products\, and genetically modified crops.. More recently\, she has created Thinning the Herd\, an installation of animal forms that addresses endangered species\, and Oppositional\, a commentary on contemporary political behavior in the United States.

Saldamando merges painting and collage\, often using origami paper\, glitter\, or gold leaf in her compositions\, many of which are painted on wood or found surfaces. Her modern portraits and innovative methods challenge social constructs pertaining to individual and collective identity within the broader context of the “American Portrait.” Saldamando’s visual biographies\, which use her friends\, family\, and fellow members of the Chicanx creative community in Los Angeles\, create new ways of seeing and being seen.\n\nOn November 2\, 6:30-8pm\, Shizu Saldamando talks to curator Amanda Krugliak about Shizu's artistic practice and her exhibition *When This is All Over / Cuando Esto Termine*.\n\nAbout the artist: Shizu Saldamando is an LA based mixed media artist with an emphasis on portraiture. She received her B.A. from UCLA’s School of Arts and Architecture and her M.F.A. from California Institute of the Arts. Her work has been exhibited both locally and internationally and experiments with a broad range of surfaces and materials. Saldamando’s practice employs tattooing\, video\, painting and drawing on canvas\, wood\, paper\, and cloth. The work functions as homage\, as well as documentation\, of friends and peers within artistic and musical subcultures around the Los Angeles metropolitan area. She is currently represented by Charlie James Gallery in Los Angeles.\n\nShizu Saldamando is the 2021 Paula and Edwin Sidman Fellow in the Arts at the University of Michigan Institute for the Humanities.

He was born and raised in Coventry\, England. He studied physics at Manchester University and then English at Cambridge University. In 1992\, he moved to the United States to study in the graduate creative writing program at Boston University. \n\nHe has taught at the University of Oregon and at Emory University and is currently the Charles Baxter Collegiate Professor of English Language and Literature in the Helen Zell MFA Program in Creative Writing at the University of Michigan. Peter Ho Davies is the author of the novels “A Lie Someone Told You About Yourself” (2021)\, “The Fortunes” (2016) and “The Welsh Girl” (2007)\, as well as the story collections “The Ugliest House in the World” (1997) and “Equal Love” (2000). \n\nHe has won numerous prizes for his short stories as well as his novels. Professor Davies lives in Ann Arbor with his wife and son. \n\nPreregistration is required via the OLLI website or phone. A link to access the lecture will be e-mailed prior to the event.

DESCRIPTION:Abstract:\nI study coverage requirements\, a common regulation in the mobile telecommunications industry that intends to accelerate the roll-out of new mobile telecommunications technologies to disadvantaged areas. I argue that the regulation may engender entry deterrence effects that limit its efficacy and lead to technology introduction patterns that are not cost-efficient. To quantify the impact of coverage requirements on market structure and the speed and cost of technology roll-out\, I develop and estimate a dynamic game of entry and technology upgrade under regulation. I estimate the model using panel data on mobile technology availability at the municipality level in Brazil. In counterfactual simulations\, I find that coverage requirements accelerate the introduction of 3G technology by just over 1 year\, on average\, and reduce firms' profits by 24% relative to a scenario with no regulation. I find the entry deterrence effects to be small. Moreover\, an alternative subsidization policy leads to a similar acceleration in the roll-out of 3G and substantially higher aggregate profits\, likely increasing aggregate welfare relative to coverage requirements.\n\n* To join the seminar\, please contact at econ.events@umich.edu UID:87326-21641154@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/87326 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Economics,seminar LOCATION:Off Campus Location CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20211130T115845 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20211105T100000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20211105T180000 SUMMARY:Exhibition:Free Your Mind: Art and Incarceration in Michigan DESCRIPTION:This exhibt runs through December 12\, 2021.\n\nMaking art can be a transformative experience. It helps us to confront and address some of the most pressing issues of our time. Art has the power to shift the way we see and understand the world around us\, and the worlds within us. Free Your Mind: Art and Incarceration in Michigan invites us to consider these qualities of art\, while also grappling with the carceral system and the many ways it affects the lives of all of us.\n\nCurrently there are approximately 2.2 million people incarcerated in the United States\, and in Michigan\, there are roughly 33\,000 residents currently serving time in the prison system. Working together with a coalition of more than a dozen organizations and Michigan State University units and departments\, Free Your Mind explores the inner worlds of incarcerated individuals and the fundamental issues that shape conversations around incarceration today. The exhibition centers on four key topics of inquiry: Michigan’s length of sentencing and overcrowding in prisons\; the impact of incarceration on women\; youth incarceration\; and the dangers of COVID-19.\n\nThe exhibition features artists\, poets\, and storytellers of great achievement. The majority of these artists are either currently or formerly incarcerated. Their works on view invite us to consider the role art-making plays in prisons as a liberating force\, and offer unique perspectives on the experience of incarceration. The works also invite us to approach the subject of incarceration with an open mind. Free Your Mind aims to cultivate a greater sense of empathy for those directly impacted by incarceration and an understanding that their growth as individuals is linked to the greater health of the society we all live in\, together.\n\nFree Your Mind: Art and Incarceration in Michigan is organized by the Eli and Edythe Broad Art Museum at Michigan State University and curated by Steven L. Bridges\, Senior Curator and Director of Curatorial Affairs\, and Janie Paul\, Senior Curator and Cofounder\, Annual Exhibitions of Art by Michigan Prisoners\, a project of the Prison Creative Arts Project at the University of Michigan. Support for this exhibition is provided by the Eli and Edythe Broad endowed exhibitions fund.

DESCRIPTION:Abstract: Disease transmission systems are highly nonlinear and stochastic and are imperfectly observable. However\, conducting high-dimensional parameter learning for partially observed\, nonlinear\, and stochastic spatiotemporal processes is a methodological challenge and is an open problem so far. We propose the iterated block particle filter (IBPF) algorithm for learning high-dimensional parameters over graphical state space models with general state spaces\, measures\, transition densities\, and graph structure. Theoretical performance guarantees are obtained on beating the curse of dimensionality (COD)\, algorithm convergence\, and likelihood maximization. Experiments on a highly nonlinear and non-Gaussian spatiotemporal model for measles transmission reveal that the iterated ensemble Kalman filter algorithm (Li et al. (2020)\, Science) is ineffective and the iterated filtering algorithm (Ionides et al. (2015)\, PNAS) suffers from the COD\, while our IBPF algorithm beats COD consistently across various experiments with different metrics. \n\nTalk based on paper: \"Iterated Block Particle Filter for High-dimensional Parameter Learning: Beating the Curse of Dimensionality''\, Ning Ning and Edward Ionides\, ArXiv: https://arxiv.org/abs/2110.10745\, 2021.\n\nNing Ning is currently a Postdoctoral Research Fellow in the Dept. of Statistics at the University of Michigan\, Ann Arbor.

Indomitable Violence: A History of Twentieth-Century Europe DESCRIPTION:The analysis of indomitable violence in Europe that Professor Casanova proposes in his new book breaks with the widely accepted division of the twentieth century into two halves\, contrasts\, one very violent and the other peaceful. That chronological division reflects a “Western European” approach\, elaborated above all in Great Britain and France\, which plays down the importance or ignores altogether the different historical processes in a broad region of Central and Eastern Europe and Mediterranean countries.\n\nIn breaking with those widespread approaches and ideas in the historiography of the West\, which are laden with clichés and superficial representations of other countries\, he argues for a different narration and interpretation\, in both space and time\, of manifestations of recurring and sometimes continuous violence\, which from the anarchist terrorism to the wars of succession in Yugoslavia marked the history of twentieth-century Europe in blood and fire.\n\nAs there is no one single history of Europe\, but multiple histories which overlap and intersect with one another\, he has tried to situate the principal manifestations of violence in a transnational shared context. Nor is there any general theory about violence\, and nor do the specific cases help in themselves to establish what has been his main argument: to discover and conceptualize the logic of violence through the similarities and differences among different historical periods. And in that logic to highlight as common threads the ideologies of race and nation\, the moments of crisis generated by wars and the revolutions and projects of totalitarian utopias.\n\nJulián Casanova is professor of contemporary history at the University of Zaragoza and visiting professor at the Central European University. He has authored and co-authored important books on the history of Spain\, the Spanish Civil War\, and Franco’s Spain which were published\, in English\, by Routledge\, Cambridge University Press\, and I.B. Tauris. His latest book\, *Indomitable Violence: A History of Twentieth-Century Europe*\, was published in 2020\, with a remarkable impact and several editions\, and will be translated by Princeton University Press. In addition to his scholarship\, Casanova is a frequent contributor to the Spanish \"El País\,\" and serves as a historical consultant in the television and film industry\, both in documentaries and TV series and films.\n \nRegistration for this webinar is required at https://myumi.ch/AxWl5\n\nIf there is anything we can do to make this event accessible to you\, please contact us at weisercenter@umich.edu.

The artists previously exhibited their work at PCAP's Annual Exhibition of Art by Michigan Prisoners at the University of Michigan. For some\, this exhibition at the MSU Broad Art Lab is the first opportunity to show their work since regaining their freedom. Art-making has helped these artists during the dark years of their incarceration\, and we hope the exhibition inspires visitors to learn more about how to support formerly incarcerated people reconnecting with their communities.\n\nMartín Vargas\, artist and curator of this exhibition\, invites visitors and supporters to not only connect with the artists through their work\, but also during select Art Lab studio hours\, which will feature several of the artists working in person.\n\nConnections\, New Beginnings: Artists in Transition is organized by the Linkage Project of the Prison Creative Arts Project at the University of Michigan in partnership with the Eli and Edythe Broad Art Museum at Michigan State University.

Is the Philippines Asia's Banana Republic? Vertical Disintegration After Empire DESCRIPTION:Free and open to the public. Please register at https://myumi.ch/PlgjR\n\nThe term “banana republic\,” a racializing pejorative used to describe Central American economies\, does not usually conjure images of Asia. Yet it has become a common moniker for the state of the Philippines’ political and economic systems. Both journalistic and academic writing have used the label to characterize every administration from Ferdinand Marcos (1965 - 1986) to Rodrigo Duterte (2016 - current)\, citing U.S. intervention in politics\, a state of bloodshed and rebellion\, the persistence of kleptocracy in high office\, the lack of government accountability\, and the rampancy of inequality. These popular references suggest that notions of a “Philippine banana republic” have little to do with the tropical commodity on which the metaphor is based. This paper\, in response\, turns to the export banana zones of southeastern Mindanao as both the metaphoric root and a material source of the power asymmetries that envelop the agrarian landscape of the Philippine south. It offers historical comparisons between the Southeast Asian nation and Guatemala\, Costa Rica\, and Honduras to demonstrate how scholarly understandings of the “banana republics” shift in the Asian context. Focusing on (1) new land control schemes devised by the same American fruit conglomerates\; (2) foundational ties to import markets in Japan\, rather than to the U.S. and Europe\; and (3) a history of peri-colonialism in Mindanao\, this paper shows the role that the industry has played both in shaping local political and economic conditions\, and in differentiating Philippine banana trade from networks in the same commodity elsewhere in the world.\n\nIf there is anything we can do to make this event accessible to you\, please contact cseas@umich.edu. \n\nPlease be aware that advance notice is necessary as some accommodations may require more time for the university to arrange.

Register here: https://myumi.ch/ovXgd\n\nDescription: Crises\, acute and chronic\, are moments of ruptures that destabilize our sense and experience of time and space. Conceptually\, crisis is one of the key concepts that help us think\, re-think\, and write about the past as well as the present. Does the experience of living through crises and disasters transform the way historians conduct their craft? What is the role of historical writing in the present moment of crisis\, and in post-crisis recoveries? How has the COVID-19 pandemic made us rethink past ruptures of time and place\, or past ruptures our present moment? For whom and for what purpose do we write histories of crises and recovery? How have communities envisioned and experienced processes of post-crisis recovery\, and is recovery even possible? All of these questions have the potential to invigorate us in a lively debate on the purpose and politics of our discipline while also reflecting on some of the key conceptual categories that have theoretical and methodological implications for the writing of history.\n\nPanelists:\n• Richard A. Bachmann (Graduate Student\, History\, University of Michigan)\n• Bryan Goh (Graduate Student\, History\, University of Michigan)\n• Mix Mann (Graduate Student\, History\, University of Michigan)\n• ToniAnn Treviño (Graduate Student\, History\, University of Michigan)\n• Hitomi Tonomura (moderator\; Professor\; History\, Women's and Gender Studies\; University of Michigan)\n\nThis event presented by the Eisenberg Institute for Historical Studies.

Working between Europe and the US over the past 30 years\, she has transitioned from being a managing director in large corporations to becoming a business entrepreneur. After receiving her engineering degree with honors from the University of Michigan IOE department in 1989 and a diploma from the Sorbonne University in France\, Christine has specialized in a diverse number of fields: automotive\, environment\, renewable energies\, real estate investment and preventative health. Geographically\, she has worked in Europe\, the US and Mexico.\n \nAt the beginning of her career\, she held management positions with automotive companies such as Faurecia and over the last 18 years has specialized in environmental issues\, directing large-scale projects at the Veolia headquarters (a French international public-utilities services firm). She developed a solid knowledge of environmental systems including water\, energy and waste/recycling\, as well as a focus on renewable energies later\, when she ran a business unit for developing solar and wind energy projects in Europe\, including building the largest solar rooftop project in the world at the time with General Motors.\n\nIn 2012\, she co-founded a renewable-energy biomass company\, called Energy Biomass Sourcing\, which supplies recycled and non-usable wood to utility companies\, producing energy in Europe. She is currently running the company\, with revenues of over 12m$/yr.\n\nBeing an entrepreneur and owning several companies has enabled Christine to explore different types of businesses and their potential growth. She is also an elected public official in the Parisian region and performs many civic duties (such as giving talks in schools to help children become more aware of the environmental challenges of our times).\n\nShe is married\, has two children\, and regularly practices running\, water sports\, reading and meditation.

These archeological sites are crucial sources of information and represent the unique heritage of coastal Louisiana. Ongoing independent and collaborative research discussed in this presentation focuses on the archaeology of Indigenous settlement patterns in the MRD\, and an interdisciplinary approach to understanding relationships between people and place and the cycles of settlement and abandonment in landforms shaped by sedimentation and inundation. This includes the investigation of the transformation of the eastern Lafourche\, Mississippi\, and St. Bernard deltaic lobes of the MRD during the Woodland (800 BC- AD 1200) and Mississippi (AD 1200-1700) periods into livable spaces. In partnership with the Chitimacha Tribe of Louisiana and other tribal communities\, an interdisciplinary team of archaeologists\, climate scientists\, geologists\, and engineers from Louisiana State University\, Tulane University\, University of Louisiana at Lafayette\, and the National Park Service comprise the Mississippi River Delta Archaeological Mitigation Project (MRDAM). The project team assesses climate change vulnerabilities and is developing plans for the impending loss of these irreplaceable cultural resources. The team works with tribal and coastal communities in cultural resource management (CRM) planning to advise resource managers and stakeholders for actionable science and outreach that is accomplished through consultations\, workshops\, reconnaissance\, site monitoring\, vulnerability assessment\, and development of appropriate climate adaptation measures.

The partitioning of different proteins and RNAs between the dilute phase and the condensed phase provides delicate regulation over their functions\, from promoting biochemical reactions and specific intermolecular interactions\, to sequestering key molecules from downstream processing or signaling. Hyperosmotic phase separation (HOPS) is a recently discovered LLPS triggered by the hyperosmotic compression of cell volume. A majority of homo-multimeric proteins are shown to undergo HOPS in several cell types\, including kidney cells that experience osmolarity fluctuations daily. Moreover\, HOPS is much faster than most cellular LLPS processes (within ~10 s versus over minutes to hours)\, and thus HOPS condensates could be first responders sensing cell volume change and priming other stress responses. However\, it was unclear whether RNAs contribute to HOPS and how HOPS impacts the diffusion behaviors and functions of different RNAs. Here\, I used both fixed-cell super-resolution imaging and live-cell single molecule RNA tracking to quantify the interaction of mRNAs\, lncRNAs\, and miRNAs with HOPS condensates\, and measure the change in their diffusion behaviors in the presence of HOPS. The preliminary results suggest that different RNAs have distinctive partitioning behaviors among HOPS condensates\, and long-range active transport of RNAs are diminished under hyperosmotic conditions\, presumably due to the compartmentalization by HOPS condensates.\n&\nCoordinated regulation of cell proliferation and differentiation is fundamental to the growth and patterning of multicellular structures. To understand how growth and patterning are coupled during vertebrate development\, we designed both in-vivo and in-vitro systems to study the interactions between the cell cycle and the segmentation clock across different scales. We use a 3D zebrafish embryonic tissue model to demonstrate that the phase dynamics of the cell cycle and segmentation clock are spatially dependent. To further study the spatiotemporal dynamics of the two clocks\, we designed a microfluidic oscillator device to show that fine tuning kinetic parameters allows control of morphogen gradients\, laying preliminary work towards constructing an artificial segmentation clock UID:84770-21624926@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/84770 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:AEM Featured,Biophysics,Biophysics Program,seminar LOCATION:Chemistry Dow Lab - 1400 CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20211105T120005 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20211105T120000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20211105T130000 SUMMARY:Other:SASLA + MUDSA Speaker Series Fall 2021: Shawn Severance (Theme: Conservation and Restoration) DESCRIPTION:Shawn Severance is an alumna of the MLA program back in 2000!

By and large\, these efforts did not consider the biases embedded within institutions of higher education and the institutional changes that need to happen in order for minoritized students to feel they belong and can thrive within these institutional spaces. That deeper\, institutional work is what we call Diversity 2.0 -- the process of evaluating and addressing the structural factors that make departments and campuses feel unwelcoming and unsupportive to minoritized students. To address this challenge\, we suggest a holistic approach\, one that includes a focus on admissions\, belonging\, climate\, and data equity\, as the best approach for creating the institutional transformations needed to make departments and campuses truly inclusive.

We have not actually travelled very far from our home planet and we are only beginning to understand physiological changes and the potential for using science and engineering to overcome those challenges. For example\, we know we on Earth are protected by the van Allen belts. Can we find a way to protect astronauts who travel beyond the 36\,000 miles of van Allen belt coverage from the radiation? Can we overcome the loss of blood cells\, muscle mass\, proprioception\, and immune system function? Some of these are scientific questions\; others are engineering problems to solve. NASA and her international partners must work together to solve these problems if we are ever to travel back to the Moon\, on to Mars\, and beyond. This generation of scientists and engineers are going to be the people who overcome these challenges. A side benefit is for people all over the world to overcome differences and work together on this greatest of adventures.\n\nAbout the speaker...\nDr. Clark is currently the Associate Chair of the Department of Movement Science in the School of Kinesiology here at UM. She is also an Adjunct Associate Research Scientist in the Department of Aerospace Engineering. However\, these are both “retirement jobs” as she spent most of her career at NASA headquarters\, first as the International Space Station (ISS) Senior Scientist and then as the Chief Scientist for Human Space Flight. She worked with scientists from all over the world to communicate research needs and identify areas for international collaboration. Her particular interest was in “Human Factors”\, all the elements necessary for the health\, safety\, and efficiency of crews in space. One of the primary tasks was to identify the problems associated with long-duration space flight and use the ISS to find solutions to those problems. These include biological countermeasures for the undesirable physical changes as well as the psychological issues that may occur in response to the closed\, dangerous environments while traveling in space or living on other planets. One result of this work was a talk she gave regularly on the speakers’ circuit called\, “The 55 Reasons We Can’t Go.” UID:88923-21659069@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/88923 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Aerospace,aerospace engineering LOCATION:Francois-Xavier Bagnoud Building - 1109 FXB Boeing Lecture Hall CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20211105T153307 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20211105T133000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20211105T141500 SUMMARY:Performance:Sea Monsters DESCRIPTION:Stunning photo-realistic CGA transports audiences back to the Late Cretaceous\, when a great inland sea divided North America in two.

This discussion is in partnership with U-M’s Ross School of Business and the US-Mexico Foundation (USMF)\, a binational non-profit organization dedicated to fostering bilateral cooperation and understanding between the U.S. and Mexico. This discussion will feature valuable perspectives and insights from diplomats\, executives and analysts.\n\nBackground\n\nThe United States and Mexico are the second- and the sixth-largest car manufacturing countries in the world\, respectively. Taken together\, these two global powerhouses in 2020 manufactured roughly 20 percent of the world’s passenger cars and commercial vehicles\, and their automotive industries have been linked for decades. At the same time\, the global automotive industry is undergoing a massive shift in how it produces and powers vehicles. Supply chain concerns have risen to the front of the agenda with recent microchip shortages\, while pressure is increasing for a more sustainably powered automotive industry. And at the heart of many of these production disruptions\, challenges and opportunities is the U.S.-Mexico trade relationship.

That shocking discovery spurred Lois to lead her community in a three-year struggle to protect their families from the hazardous waste buried in their backyards. By trial and error\, Lois and her neighbors developed the strategies and methods to educate and organize the community\, assess the impacts of toxic wastes on their health\, and challenge corporate and government policies on the dumping of hazardous materials. Her leadership led to the relocation of 833 Love Canal households and the formation of the Federal Superfund Program\, which is still active today. \n\nLois is currently the Executive Director of the Center for Health\, Environment\, and Justice. She is the recipient of numerous awards\, including The Goldman Environmental Prize and The Heinz Award\, and has been nominated for the Nobel Peace Prize.

In this talk\, I will introduce the notion of “gapped continuum” in quantum field theories\, and explain how it can be realized explicitly by a field propagating on a 5D warped space background with a soft wall. I will then describe how to calculate cross sections and decay rates involving gapped continuum states\, as well as study their equilibrium and non-equilibrium thermodynamics. With this theoretical framework in hand\, I will present a fully realistic model of dark matter consisting of gapped continuum states\, interacting with the Standard Model via the Z portal. Direct detection bounds\, which normally rule out Z portal interactions for thermal-relic dark matter\, are avoided due to a strong suppression of the relevant cross sections by a mechanism peculiar to gapped continuum. Some interesting and potentially testable predictions of this model\, such as continuous decays of the dark matter states throughout the history of the universe\, as well as striking collider signatures\, will also be discussed.

Bender\, professor of Linguistics at the University of Washington and faculty director of the Professional Masters in Computational Linguistics (CLMS) program. Her research interests include the interaction of linguistics and NLP\, computational semantics\, multilingual NLP\, and the societal impact of language technology. She will present \"Meaning making with artificial interlocutors and risks of language technology.\"\n\nIf there is anything we can do to make this event accessible to you\, please contact lingadmin@umich.edu. Please be aware that advance notice is necessary as some accommodations may require more time for the university to arrange.\n\nABSTRACT\nHumans make sense of language in context\, bringing to bear their own understanding of the world including their model of their interlocutor's understanding of the world. In this talk\, I will explore various potential risks that arise when we as humans bring this sense-making capacity to interactions with artificial interlocutors. That is\, I will ask what happens in conversations where one party has no (or extremely limited) access to meaning and all of the interpretative work rests with the other\, and briefly explore what this entails for the design of language technology.

It helps us to confront and address some of the most pressing issues of our time. Art has the power to shift the way we see and understand the world around us\, and the worlds within us. Free Your Mind: Art and Incarceration in Michigan invites us to consider these qualities of art\, while also grappling with the carceral system and the many ways it affects the lives of all of us.\n\nCurrently there are approximately 2.2 million people incarcerated in the United States\, and in Michigan\, there are roughly 33\,000 residents currently serving time in the prison system. Working together with a coalition of more than a dozen organizations and Michigan State University units and departments\, Free Your Mind explores the inner worlds of incarcerated individuals and the fundamental issues that shape conversations around incarceration today. The exhibition centers on four key topics of inquiry: Michigan’s length of sentencing and overcrowding in prisons\; the impact of incarceration on women\; youth incarceration\; and the dangers of COVID-19.\n\nThe exhibition features artists\, poets\, and storytellers of great achievement. The majority of these artists are either currently or formerly incarcerated. Their works on view invite us to consider the role art-making plays in prisons as a liberating force\, and offer unique perspectives on the experience of incarceration. The works also invite us to approach the subject of incarceration with an open mind. Free Your Mind aims to cultivate a greater sense of empathy for those directly impacted by incarceration and an understanding that their growth as individuals is linked to the greater health of the society we all live in\, together.\n\nFree Your Mind: Art and Incarceration in Michigan is organized by the Eli and Edythe Broad Art Museum at Michigan State University and curated by Steven L. Bridges\, Senior Curator and Director of Curatorial Affairs\, and Janie Paul\, Senior Curator and Cofounder\, Annual Exhibitions of Art by Michigan Prisoners\, a project of the Prison Creative Arts Project at the University of Michigan. Support for this exhibition is provided by the Eli and Edythe Broad endowed exhibitions fund.

The artists previously exhibited their work at PCAP's Annual Exhibition of Art by Michigan Prisoners at the University of Michigan. For some\, this exhibition at the MSU Broad Art Lab is the first opportunity to show their work since regaining their freedom. Art-making has helped these artists during the dark years of their incarceration\, and we hope the exhibition inspires visitors to learn more about how to support formerly incarcerated people reconnecting with their communities.\n\nMartín Vargas\, artist and curator of this exhibition\, invites visitors and supporters to not only connect with the artists through their work\, but also during select Art Lab studio hours\, which will feature several of the artists working in person.\n\nConnections\, New Beginnings: Artists in Transition is organized by the Linkage Project of the Prison Creative Arts Project at the University of Michigan in partnership with the Eli and Edythe Broad Art Museum at Michigan State University.

Moore Hankinson Rehearsal Hall (2005 Baits Drive)\n\nPraised by the Philadelphia Inquirer as having “a sound as clear and sure as it [is] luxurious\,” Carol Jantsch has been principal tuba of The Philadelphia Orchestra since 2006. She won the position during her senior year at the University of Michigan\, becoming the first female tuba player in a major symphony orchestra.\n\nIn addition to her duties in the Philadelphia Orchestra\, Ms. Jantsch is a renowned tuba soloist. She gives solo recitals regularly\, and has appeared as a concerto soloist with various ensembles\, including the Philadelphia Orchestra\, the Columbus Symphony\, the St. Petersburg Symphony in Russia\, the Henry Mancini Institute Orchestra\, and the United States Marine Band. She has performed in Carnegie’s Zankel Hall with the Musical Olympus Festival\, and has appeared on the radio on NPR’s series From the Top and Interlochen Public Radio’s Live From Studio A. In 2009 she was honored with a “Best of Philly” award from Philadelphia magazine. She has also won prizes in several international solo tuba competitions\, and alumni awards from both Interlochen Arts Academy and the University of Michigan.\n\nMs. Jantsch is in increasing demand as a teacher worldwide\, having given master classes in Europe\, Asia\, and North America. She enjoys working with young musicians\, and has been a featured artist at various brass festivals in Finland\, Germany\, Canada\, and the United States. She is on the faculty at the Yale University School of Music and Temple University’s Boyer College of Music.\n\nMs. Jantsch is an advocate for music education in her community. In 2018\, she founded Tubas For Good\, a 501(c)3 nonprofit that provides instruments for students in the Philadelphia School District. Ms. Jantsch coaches music students from the district both through Tubas For Good and through the Philadelphia Orchestra’s All-City program. Since 2017\, she has hosted an annual Tuba/Euphonium PlayIN\, a free community event where players of all ages and skill levels are invited to perform as a mass tuba ensemble on the Verizon Hall stage. \n\nMs. Jantsch enjoys interacting with audiences in a very different way than her orchestra role as a member of Tubular\, a tuba cover band that performs at bars and events. Comprised of tubas\, euphoniums\, drums\, and vocals\, Tubular is committed to presenting pop and rock music in a fun and engaging way\, while guilefully stretching people’s notions of the capabilities of low brass instruments. As the chief arranger of Tubular\, Ms. Jantsch revels in the challenge of adapting music from ABBA to Zeppelin for this unique setting. \n\nRaised in a musical family\, Ms. Jantsch began piano lessons at age six and began studying euphonium at Interlochen Arts Camp at age nine. After switching to tuba\, she attended the prestigious arts boarding high school Interlochen Arts Academy\, graduating as salutatorian of her class. She continued her studies at the University of Michigan under the tutelage of Fritz Kaenzig. After winning her position with The Philadelphia Orchestra in February of 2006\, she returned to Michigan to complete her Bachelor of Music degree\, graduating with highest honors.\n\nMs. Jantsch can be heard on numerous Philadelphia Orchestra recordings\, including the 2010 release of Ewald Quintets no. 1 and 3 with fellow Philadelphia Orchestra principal brass. She released her first solo recording\, Cascades\, in 2009. In 2013 she premiered Reflections on the Mississippi\, a tuba concerto written for her and the Temple University Symphony Orchestra by Grammy Award-winning composer Michael Daugherty. She performed the concerto with the Philadelphia Orchestra in 2015\, and recorded it with the Albany Symphony Orchestra and the University of Michigan Symphony Band.\n\nMs. Jantsch is a Yamaha Performing Artist. She plays a Yamaha YFB-822 F tuba\, a YFB-826 “Yamayork” CC tuba\, and a PT-6 CC tuba.

The fairy’s spell lasts only until midnight. That’s long enough for Cinderella and Prince Charming to meet and fall in love. \n\nThis witty French opera premiered in Paris at the Opéra-Comique on May 24\, 1899. It is based on the classic fairy tale as told by Charles Perrault. This operatic version is closer to Perrault’s story than the version used in Rossini’s La Cenerentola. Its music is full of melodic charm with recognizable arias. \n\nThis production will be sung in French with projected English translations.
