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.

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 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.

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.

Through research that integrates psychology\, biology\, developmental and family science\, and public health\, we have: 1) advanced our understanding of racism experiences among Black American youth\; 2) delineated mechanisms that mitigate or exacerbate the mental health sequelae of racism\; and 3) tested a biopsychosocial model of racism-related stress to identify opportunities for intervention and the eradication of racism. In this presentation\, I will highlight recent key findings and reflect on the value of combining racism\, public health\, and clinical science to inform the next generation of research\, alleviate the health consequences of racism\, and promote health equity for Black and other marginalized youth.

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.

In many environments\, particularly in politics\, message receivers engage in motivated reasoning\, distorting how they process information in directions they find more attractive. This paper uses two online experiments to study what information senders choose to send to receivers on topics that evoke politically-motivated beliefs. Experiment 1\, conducted using a sample of social media users\, studies the effect of incentivizing senders to be perceived as truthful. These incentives cause senders to send less truthful messages. With these incentives\, senders send more false information when it aligns with receivers' motivated beliefs\, even controlling for receivers' current beliefs. Receivers do not anticipate the adverse effects of senders' incentives. Experiment 2 isolates the role that motivated reasoning plays by constructing an environment in which receivers assess the truthfulness of messages from a computer and senders choose which message to be paid for. Senders predict that politically-motivated reasoning impacts receivers' inference\, they demand information about receivers' political preferences\, and they use the receivers' politics to strategically choose less truthful computer messages.\n(To attend this online event\, please complete the form to receive email instructions and announcements for this and future SBEE Seminars.)

Triples of people that have three positive relations (e.g. friendship) between each other are strongly overrepresented. Triples with two negative (e.g. enmity) and one positive relation are also overrepresented\, triples with one or three negative relations are drastically suppressed. For almost a century\, the mechanism behind this very specific (``balanced'') triad statistics remains elusive. Here we propose a simple realistic adaptive network model where agents tend to minimize social tension that arises from dyadic interactions. Both\, opinions of agents\, and their signed links (positive or negative relations) are updated in the dynamics. The novelty of the model arises from the fact that agents only need information about their local neighbors in the network and do not require (often unrealistic) higher-order network information for their relation- and opinion updates. We demonstrate the quality of the model on detailed temporal relation-data of a society of thousands of players of a massive multiplayer online game where we can observe triangle formation directly. It not only successfully predicts the distribution of triangle types but also explains empirical group-size distributions\, which are essential for social cohesion. We discuss the details of the phase diagrams behind the model\, their parameter dependence\, and comment to what extent the results might apply universally in societies.\n\n*Speaker bio*\nTuan Pham is a PostDoc at the CSH since September 2021.

For Zoom passcode information\, or to be added to the seminar distribution list\, please email cogsci-seminar-requests@umich.edu.\n\nABSTRACT\nClassical conditioning is a way of learning about one’s environment wherein a previously neutral stimulus (conditioned stimulus - CS) gets associated with another stimulus that evokes natural reward (unconditioned stimulus - US). Over several trials informing this pairing\, the animal begins to generate a response (Conditioned response - CR) when only the CS is present. Classical Conditioning as a field encompasses a host of known phenomena about how the CR is affected by manipulating a range of factors in an experiment - the interstimulus interval\, the number of CS-s\, the order in which CS-s appear\, etc. A key challenge in the field is to build a comprehensive computational model that can explain all these phenomena.\n\nWe approached this problem by familiarizing ourselves with some of the most prominent models of classical conditioning as of today so as to understand their shortcomings and build on them. The talk will go into the details of the temporal difference model of classical conditioning (Ludvig et. al 2012) and our attempts in replicating this model. It will also briefly touch upon other well-accepted models and our tentative plan for the project going forward.

Agents differ in present bias and earnings ability\, both unobservable to a planner with paternalistic and redistributive motives. We characterize the solution to this two-dimensional screening problem and provide a decentralization using realistic policy instruments: mandatory savings at low incomes but a choice between subsidized savings vehicles at high incomes--resembling Social Security\, 401(k) and IRA accounts in the US. Offering more savings choice at higher incomes facilitates redistribution. To solve large-scale versions of this problem numerically\, we propose a general\, computationally stable\, and efficient active-set algorithm. Relative to the current US retirement system\, we find significant welfare gains from increasing mandatory savings and limiting savings choice at low incomes.

Given constraints on expanding bed capacity including both high costs and regulatory barriers\, hospitals have increasingly focused on improving operational efficiency as a method to improve patient flow. Michigan Medicine and UM Health have been on a journey to improve patient flow over several years through the application of engineering principles\, analytics\, improved management of variation\, and creation of a system-wide playbook for how we approach capacity management and patient flow in our hospitals. This work has culminated in a current project to develop and implement a hospital command center as the next step in creating reliable system-wide processes to manage patient flow and safety. In this talk\, I will describe our journey in hospital capacity management\, walk through our playbook and principles and finish with an update on how we are planning to integrate all these lessons learned into our new hospital command center that will go live in late 2022.\n\nVikas I. Parekh\, MD is Professor of Medicine at the University of Michigan where he is the Associate Chief Medical Officer for UM Health. As Associate Chief Medical officer\, he guides the health system’s work on capacity management\, readmissions and leads an operational analytics team working to optimize patient flow and operational challenges throughout the health system as lead for the multi-million-dollar Command Center project. He has published and presented nationally in the fields of hospital medicine\, residency education and hospital operations and capacity management. Dr. Parekh is a graduate of the Harvard Medical School and completed his residency training at the University of Michigan. Dr. Parekh has won several awards including the Provost’s Teaching Innovation Prize\, the Special Recognition Award for Contributions to the House Officer Teaching Program\, the H. Marvin Pollard Award\, the Department of Medicine’s highest award for resident teaching and the Chair’s Impact Award for his work during COVID-19 and was inducted into the Medical School’s League of Educational Excellence.\n\nThis seminar series is presented by the U-M Center for Healthcare Engineering and Patient Safety (CHEPS): Our mission is to improve the safety and quality of healthcare delivery through a multi-disciplinary\, systems-engineering approach.

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 the importance of these aerosol particles\, they remain poorly understood and continue to contribute the largest uncertainty to estimates of total radiative forcing. This lecture will describe efforts within my lab towards the synthesis of putative biogenic terpene-derived constituents of atmospheric aerosol particles in order to confirm their identities and explore their climate relevant physical properties. Recent advances in the synthesis of isotopically-labeled pinene derivatives that are driving collaborative investigations into the complex oxidation pathways of terpenes in the atmosphere will also be presented. \n \n \nRegan Thomson (Northwestern) UID:84397-21623848@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/84397 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Biosciences,Chemistry,Science LOCATION:Undergraduate Science Building - 2260 CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20211215T123040 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20211130T120000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20211130T130000 SUMMARY:Careers / Jobs:Bright Horizons Teacher Tuesday DESCRIPTION:Bright Horizons is hiring POSITIONS to join our family in our locations throughout the Midwest!

In this setup\, new physics is captured in a set of higher-dimension operators whose coefficients must be measured experimentally\, or matched from a UV completion. It has been known for some time that basic principles\, such as unitarity and causality\, impose constraints on the allowed values of such coefficients\, but a framework to exhaustively explore said constraints has only emerged recently. In this talk I will explain how developments in scattering amplitudes and the conformal bootstrap allowed us to compute sharp numerical bounds on these EFT coefficients. Our results have direct implications for the possibility of testing modifications of General Relativity using gravitational waves and in other astrophysical settings. In addition they also connect with the swampland program. Finally\, I will briefly comment on the possibility of obtaining similar results for the Standard Model Effective Theory (SMEFT).

Considered to be Steinbeck’s masterpiece\, The “Grapes of Wrath” is a story of human unity and love\, confirming the need for cooperation rather than individualism during hard times. \n\nPlease secure and read the entire 455-page novel. First published in 1939\, the novel takes place during America’s Great Depression\, which lasted from the Stock Market Crash of October 1929 until the beginning of World War II. During this time\, a long period of drought and high winds impacted large parts of the American Midwest\, creating what was called the Dust Bowl. Many people in the lower Midwest moved elsewhere\, hoping to find fertile land on which to make a living. \n\nThe novel was #12 on the list of the 100 most-loved books in PBS’s The Great American Read. \n\nInstructor\, Mary Engelhardt has a BS degree in elementary education with a minor in Language and Literature from Eastern Michigan University. She earned a Master of Arts in Counseling Degree from Oakland University. Steinbeck is Mary’s favorite author.\n\nThis study group will meet on Tuesday\, November 30 and Wednesday\, December 1.

Digital City: A Spatial Study on Nonextant Islamic Infrastructure in Early Modern Ottoman Filibe DESCRIPTION:The symbolic rupture with the imperial past in many post-Ottoman cities in the Balkans materialized via organized effort for “modernization” of the urban space systematically carried out by the nation-state authorities. As a result\, a large segment of the built-in environment was replaced early on by “modern” public and residential architecture\, a process that went hand in hand with a substantial alteration of the inherited street network. The transformative nature of the intentional policies for reshaping the cityscapes often quickly obliterated the Ottoman urban tissue\, thus depriving modern scholarship of studying the morphology of the cities from the Ottoman era based on preserved examples. Moreover\, contemporary archaeology cannot be particularly effective because most of the buildings that replaced the Ottoman structures still stand in densely built modern urban cores\, which impedes any destructive and/or non-destructive archaeological studies.\n\nThis apparent lack of reliable\, cadastral\, or archaeologically derived data calls for alternative methods to study the long-vanished Ottoman urban fabric and the public buildings constituting its skeleton. Bringing together a wide array of different sources that offer useful information on architectural objects\, street patterns\, and separate residential areas (mahalle)\, this lecture aims to introduce a methodology for creating a spatially referenced database\, which can digitally recreate the non-extant urban fabric of Ottoman cities in the Balkans. Focusing on a detailed analysis of Filibe (Plovdiv)\, the principal town of Central Bulgaria\, the lecture seeks to demonstrate the general applicability of the methodology for studying urban development across the Ottoman Empire.\n\nGrigor Boykov\, Ph.D. in Ottoman history (2013)\, is a researcher at the Institute for Habsburg and Balkan Studies at the Austrian Academy of Sciences. Before joining the Academy in 2019\, he taught at the University of Sofia (2014-2019)\, Central European University in Budapest (2015-2016)\, and was a research fellow at the Netherlands Institute in Turkey (2012-2014). Boykov has been a team member of the projects “The Fashioning of a Sunni Orthodoxy and the Entangled Histories of Confession-Building in the Ottoman Empire\, 15th -17th Centuries” (2015-2016) and “Industrialisation and Urban Growth from the mid-nineteenth century Ottoman Empire to Contemporary Turkey in a Comparative Perspective\, 1850-2000” (2017-2019). In 2019\, he received MSCA-IF for his project Population Geography of Bulgaria\, 1500-1920: An Historical Spatial Analysis (POPGEO_BG)\, conducted at Koç University in Istanbul. Among other projects\, Boykov is currently working on a Historical Gazetteer of the Ottoman Empire (in cooperation with M. Erdem Kabadayı) and the Ottoman Archive of Zograf Monastery on Mt. Athos.\n\nRegister at: https://umich.zoom.us/meeting/register/tJckdOmurTwpH9aTFJSCS0xeoIg-uX7KcO2O UID:87819-21647038@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/87819 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Discussion,Global Islamic Studies,History,Iiss Lecture Series,Virtual LOCATION:Off Campus Location CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20211110T094057 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20211130T140000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20211130T150000 SUMMARY:Livestream / Virtual:Autonomous and Connected Vehicle Safety DESCRIPTION:A significant\, persisting challenge in transportation is traffic safety which\, despite a decrease in vehicle miles traveled (VMT)\, led to 38\,680 deaths and over 2.8 million injuries in the United States last year. Traffic crashes also result in an estimated economic loss of over $230 billion annually. Integrated vehicle passive and active safety systems and connectivity are required to mitigate crashes or avoid collisions.\n\nFor the final Distinguished Lecture Series of 2021\, the Center for Connected and Automated Transportation (CCAT) is pleased to welcome Dr. Azim Eskandarian to review some timely research areas on vehicle control systems\, signal processing\, and communication-enabled connectivity to address the pervasive vehicle safety problem.

Stormwater outfalls that discharge into coastal waters have detrimental impacts on human and ecosystem health\, and stormwater runoff often results in elevated levels of pathogens and nutrients\, which can lead to fishing and swimming closures\, illnesses\, and negative impacts on coastal ecosystems. To better understand the effects of stormwater\, a project team based at the Rachel Carson component of the North Carolina National Estuarine Research Reserve used a comprehensive sampling regimen to gather quantitative information that helped them assess the effects of precipitation and tidal inundation on stormwater impacts\, and identify sources of fecal contamination.\n\nIn this webinar\, members of the project team discuss the technical and collaborative aspects of their approach\, including the sampling regimen and how their engagement approach resulted in a decision-maker summit and citizen science app that fosters ongoing community engagement on stormwater issues.

In this talk\, l will present one chapter of my dissertation work in which I use inferential modeling to better understand location characteristics for illicit massage businesses in the United States. Illicit massage businesses are a venue for sex and labor trafficking in the US and are primarily regulated at the state and local level\, allowing for transience and spatial variation across local boundaries. Using web-scraped advertisement data over a 6-month period\, I modeled illicit massage business prevalence at the Census tract and county levels. I used publicly available data to analyze location characteristics using a single- and multi-stage inferential machine learning model. Significant contributors to IMB prevalence included the state in which they were located and the racial composition\, religious presence\, and rent and income levels in the area surrounding the IMB. I will close the talk by discussing my insights on thoughtfully using data to model and understand vulnerable populations.\n \nBio: Anna White is a PhD candidate in Industrial and Operations Engineering at the University of Michigan and a member of the Science\, Technology\, and Public Policy Certificate Program.

I will give a brief introduction to quantum computing and why they might be useful tools for solving problems in condensed matter physics and beyond. Following that\, I will present a perspective on thermodynamics of quantum systems ideally suited to quantum computers\, namely the zeros of the partition function\, or Lee-Yang zeros. We developed quantum circuits to measure the Lee-Yang zeros\, and used these to reconstruct the thermodynamic partition function of the XXZ model. The zeros qualitatively show the cross-over from an Ising-like regime to an XY-like regime\, making this measurement ideally suitable in a NISQ environment. If time permits\, I will discuss our demonstration of how topological properties of physical systems can be measured on quantum computers. We leverage the holonomy of the wavefunctions to obtain a noise-free measurement of the Chern number\, which we apply to an interacting fermion model.\n UID:86561-21634898@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/86561 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Physics,Science LOCATION:West Hall - 335 CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20211215T123029 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20211130T160000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20211130T170000 SUMMARY:Careers / Jobs:Internship Lab DESCRIPTION:*RSVP for this program.

The electronic and steric environment at the nanomaterial surface has a huge impact on the reactivity and selectivity of catalytic transformations occurring at surface active sites\, but these properties are difficult to independently control through conventional materials synthetic methods. In this work\, we develop molecularly-precise surface functionalization strategies in order to precisely tune both the ensemble geometry and redox properties of active site metal atoms. These strategies include 1) the adsorption of inorganic ligands on colloidal nanoparticle surfaces in order to synthesize monolayer and sub-monolayer core-shell catalysts\, 2) control of bimetallic surface ensemble geometry to catalyze diastereoselective organic reactions\, and 3) tuning the metal–sulfur coordination environment of single atoms supported on metal chalcogenide nanosheets for electrochemical catalysis. All of these strategies develop new structural frameworks for modulating the surface active site environment in order to access more reactive and selective nanomaterial catalysts. \n \nChristina Li (Purdue University) UID:84369-21623615@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/84369 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Biosciences,Chemistry,Science LOCATION:Chemistry Dow Lab - 1640 CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20211215T123031 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20211130T163000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20211130T173000 SUMMARY:Careers / Jobs:Brooke Charter Schools Associate Teacher Virtual Information Session DESCRIPTION:Are you ready to launch your career as a teacher at one of thetop-performing schools in Boston?\n\nJoin us for a virtual information session about our Associate Teacher Program\, a salaried\, school-based teacher preparation program that empowers corps members to become successful lead teachers in just one year.

This webinar is free and open to the public\, but registration is required. Once you've registered\, the joining information will be sent to your email.\n \n Register at: https://myumi.ch/7Zd7Y\n\nCosponsored by the School of Kinesiology\n\nElite sporting culture in South Korea is often regarded as the last hangover from the authoritarian military regimes in the 1960-80s – a spatiotemporally extended barrack ridden with collectivism\, strict hierarchy\, violence\, misogyny and patriotic ideologies\, etc. The country’s state-sponsored elite athlete fostering system is still likened to ‘Silmi-do’\, a remote island where a military special force was trained to invade Pyongyang in the 1960s\, owing to the nature of the system\, including its coercive training\, cultural isolation and failure in protecting athletes’ human rights. Perhaps a more sociological edition of this line of public discourse can be sought from Goffman’s total institution (1961) given the degrees of batch living and time-tabled control over athletes’ daily routines\, especially considering the year-round camp training practice from an early age towards the national training centre\, formerly notorious for its overly harsh training regimen.\n\nHowever\, this 20th century view of strong institutional control and passive agency seems outdated as it fails to capture the ways in which contemporary athletes engage with the elite sport development regime (ESDR). While there certainly remains a higher degree of totalising power (e.g.\, isolated time-commitment towards gruelling training) in the ESDR\, individuals are not forced or ‘culturally doped’ to enter and reside within the regime. They voluntarily decide to join the regime in pursuit of success in society in their own ways\, akin to the members of what Scott (2010) termed ‘reinventive institutions’ in which individuals attempt to construct an elevated social self and status. Informed by Scott’s (2010) contrast between total and reinventive institutions\, this talk presents a (re-)conceptualisation of South Korea’s elite sport development system. Utilising data from a qualitative study on young South Korean performance athletes\, the presentation (1) discusses the relative balance between institutional coercion and voluntaristic agency manifested within the ESDR and (2) compares the balance with those in other institutions of K-society (e.g.\, K-pop\, K-universities\, K-companies\, etc.) as a way of exploring whether the ESDR is the last bastion of the erstwhile totalising culture or the epitome of reinventive institutions on the rise.\n\nMinhyeok Tak is Lecturer of sport management in the School of Sport\, Exercise and Health Sciences at Loughborough University\, UK. His research focuses on integrity issues in sport\, such as sports betting\, match-fixing and athlete safeguarding. Minhyeok is currently working on an IOC-funded project on abuse issues in sport\, entitled ‘Is Safe Sport incompatible with high performance? Contextualising safeguarding policies within the South Korean elite athlete development system.’ \n\nIf there is anything we can do to make this event accessible to you\, please contact us.

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.

Through research and active engagement\, it aims to encourage the study of engineering and allied subjects and drive curriculum innovations to help create the next generation of engineering graduates needed to address complex global challenges. The Centre for Engineering Education is heavily involved in the running and dissemination of UCL Engineering's Integrated Engineering Programme (IEP) – one of the four case studies described in the MIT report “Reimagining and rethinking engineering education” – a pedagogical framework by which undergraduate students study using innovative and interdisciplinary approaches. In this session\, I will focus on CEE’s research with IEP students and recent graduates to understand their experiences in the programme. Findings suggest gender differences in the awareness of the societal impact of engineering\, and that communication skills are essential to engineering practice. Finally\, I will highlight contributions for future longitudinal research on engineering student learning and career pathways in the UK.\n\nRegister here: tinyurl.com/eerseminar-direito UID:89044-21660326@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/89044 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Biomedical Engineering,Civil and Environmental Engineering,Climate and Space Sciences and Engineering,Diversity Equity And Inclusion,Education,Electrical Engineering and Computer Science,Engineering,Industrial and Operations Engineering,Lecture,Mechanical Engineering,Michigan Engineering,Michigan Robotics,Naval Architecture and Marine Engineering,Nuclear Engineering and Radiological Sciences,Psychology,Research,Stem LOCATION:Off Campus Location CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20220103T181523 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20211201T110000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20211201T170000 SUMMARY:Exhibition:Envision: The Michigan Artist Initiative DESCRIPTION:Exhibition: Nov 12\, 2021 - January 22\, 2022\nPublic Opening and Award Ceremony: November 12\, 2021\nOrganized by Stamps Gallery\, Envision: The Michigan Artist Initiative is a new awards program designed to support the development of contemporary artists living and working in Michigan.

Neo-nationalism and De-democratization in Hungary: Anti-Gender Policies and the Politics of Resentment DESCRIPTION:Free and open to the public. Register at: https://myumi.ch/yKeER\n\nFor over a decade in Hungary\, the FIDESZ government of Viktor Orban has pursued the making of an “illiberal” democracy. During this period\, CREES has sponsored lectures on events in Hungary\, including Hungary’s outsized influence on populist and far-right movements elsewhere in Europe and more recently in the United States. Today’s roundtable continues this conversation with the work of two Hungarian anthropologists\, Violetta Zentai and Margit Feischmidt. Each will briefly discuss aspects of their current work investigating contemporary Hungary under the Orban regime and then open the discussion to questions from the audience. The roundtable will be moderated by professor of anthropology and CREES faculty associate Krisztina Fehervary.\n\nProfessor Zentai will provide an overview from her work on the “anti-gender” political discourses propagated by the current authoritarian-populist regime\, and its linkages to de-democratization in the region. Anti-gender discourses not only embrace sexist\, homophobic\, and anti-gender-equality reasoning\, but help enact a nativist and biopolitical right-wing social imagination. She will address the transnational sources of this discourse as well as how it is used by home-grown actors to normalize and make respectable forms of discrimination that were once considered populist\, backwards\, and exclusionary.\n\nProfessor Feischmidt’s presentation will draw on a larger project undertaken to understand the cultural logic and social support of new forms of nationalism in Hungary. Here\, she will discuss political elites who have fostered the contemporary “Trianon Cult\,” a new phenomenon of collective mourning for losses suffered a century ago in the Treaty of Trianon (1920). This “view from above” will be complemented with a “view from below\,” by examining the meanings that audiences give to these newly-constructed collective memories. The argument of the paper is that while the Trianon-cult invokes a historical trauma\, it in fact speaks to current feelings of loss and resentment.\n \n\nMargit Feischmidt is a research professor at the Research Centre for Social Sciences\, Hungarian Academy of Sciences Centre of Excellence\, where she leads the Department for Sociology and Anthropology in Minority Studies. She is also the editor-in-chief of *Intersections. East European Journal of Society and Politics *and professor of communication and media studies\, University of Pécs. With a doctoral degree from Humboldt University\, she works on issues of migration\, nationalism\, ethnicity and minorities in East-Central Europe. Her first important publication was *Nationalist Politics and Everyday Ethnicity in a Transylvanian Town* (2006\, Princeton University Press) co-authored by Brubaker\, Fox and Grancea. After years working mainly on Roma and immigrant minorities in the region\, she currently investigates new forms of nationalism\, racism and the far-right. Her most recent edited book (with Pries and Cantat) is on civic forms of solidarity (*Refugee Protection and Civil Society in Europe*\, Palgrave Macmillan\, 2019).\n \nVioletta Zentai is a social anthropologist\, associate professor in the Department of Public Policy\, recurring visiting faculty in the Department of Sociology and Social Anthropology\, and research fellow at the Democracy Institute of Central European University\, Budapest-Vienna. Her research focuses on ethnic and gender in/equalities\, post-socialist socio-economic transformations\, European social inclusion policies\, and pro-equality civil society formations. She also worked with the Open Society Foundations for two decades. She co-leads a multi-year project titled Roma Civil Monitor with the participation of 90+ NGOs. Her publications include: *A Reflexive History of the Romani Women’s Movement: Struggles and Debates in Central and Eastern Europe*. (Kocze\, Zentai\, Jovanovic\, Vincze\, eds.\, Routledge\, 2018)\, and *From the Shadow to the Limelight: the Value of Civil Society Policy Monitoring Knowledge in Roma Equality Struggles* (Hojsik\, Munteanu\, Zentai\, eds.\, CEU\, forthcoming).\n\n----\nIf there is anything we can do to make this event accessible to you\, please contact crees@umich.edu.

While iterative plurality has been shown to only return alternatives with at most one less initial vote than the truthful winner\, it is less understood how agents’ welfare changes in equilibrium. To this end\, we differentiate agents’ utility from their manipulation mechanism and determine iterative plurality’s ADPoA in the worst- and average-cases. We first prove that the worst-case ADPoA is linear in the number of agents. To overcome this negative result\, we study the average-case ADPoA and prove that equilibrium winners have a constant order welfare advantage over the truthful winner in expectation. Our positive results illustrate the prospect for social welfare to increase due to strategic manipulation.\n\n*Speaker Bio*\nJoshua Kavner is a doctoral student in the computer science department at Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute.

He has been at Michigan since 2005\, where he returned after serving as an assistant professor at the Department of Biostatistics and Epidemiology at the University of Pennsylvania from 2000-2005.\n\nCOMBINING PROBABILITY NON-PROBABILITY SAMPLES\nAlthough probability sample designs remain a “gold standard” in survey research\, demand for use of non-probability samples is increasing\, due to\, among other reasons\, rising costs and falling response rates in probability samples and the availability of “big data” from administrative databases\, social media users\, and other sources. Design-based inference\, in which the distribution for inference is generated by the random mechanism used by the sampler\, cannot be used for non-probability samples. If probability and non-probability samples are available that target the same population\, the probability sample can be used to account for possible selection bias if there are sufficient overlapping covariates even if the outcome is not available in the probability sample. One approach is “quasi-randomization” in which pseudo-inclusion probabilities are estimated based on covariates available for samples and nonsample units. An extension of this uses a model to predict values for the outcome in the probability sample\, yielding a “doubly robust” estimator that consistent estimates target population quantities if either the pseudo-inclusion probabilities or outcome model is correct. I will overview these approaches\, with a focus on using Bayesian additive regression tree to reduce model misspecification\, and apply results to “naturalistic” driving studies that use volunteer samples to follow long-term driving behavior.

Realizing these lofty goals will require low-dimensional crystals whose size\, shape\, structure\, and composition can be tailored to atomic levels of precision. Chemistry will play a vital role in creating these crystalline building blocks of quantum matter. In this vein\, the Kempa group has focused on the precision synthesis of 2-dimensional (2D) materials to harness quantum phenomena. Our work with 2D atomic lattices and 2D molecular frameworks has revealed that even subtle manipulations of the dimensionality and morphology of these materials yield substantial property changes. Notably\, we can dramatically manipulate the structure of 2D transition-metal dichalcogenides by\ngrowing them on chemically tailored surfaces. The resulting nanoribbons emit light whose energy and profile show an unusual progression with crystal size. Seeking to expand the 2D materials landscape\, we have also prepared and examined new 2D molecular frameworks. Reversible phase switching can be induced in these frameworks with concomitant modulation of electronic transport. Our efforts underscore the importance of rational synthesis in building low-dimensional materials that enable new discoveries and advance the fields of optics\, electronics\, energy conversion\, and quantum sensing.\nThomas Kempa (Johns Hopkins University) UID:89132-21660579@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/89132 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Biosciences,Chemistry,Science LOCATION:Off Campus Location CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20220621T152447 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20211201T121500 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20211201T124500 SUMMARY:Well-being:VIRTUAL | CEW+Inspire Midweek Mindfulness-Guided Sit DESCRIPTION:As part of the CEW+Inspire initiative\, CEW+ holds mindful meditation sits virtually on Wednesdays at 12:15.\n\nRSVP here to receive the Zoom link: https://myumi.ch/r8zv7\n\nMindfulness Meditation is a skill that can be learned and when practiced has the power to enhance a sense of wellbeing\, focus\, and interconnectedness. 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.

However\, reaching and exploring the underwater environments of these alien worlds is a task with immense challenges. Unlike terrestrial based missions\, the exploration of ocean worlds necessitates robots which are capable of fully automated operation. These robots must rely on local sensors to interpret the scene\, plan their motions\, and complete their mission tasks. Manipulation tasks\, such as sample collection\, are particularly challenging in underwater environments\, where the manipulation platform is mobile\, and the environment is unstructured. \n\nThis dissertation addresses some of the challenges in visual scene understanding to support autonomous manipulation with underwater vehicle manipulator systems (UVMSs). The developed visual methods are demonstrated with a lightweight vision system\, composed of a vehicle mounted stereo pair and a manipulator wrist mounted fisheye camera\, that can be easily integrated on existing UVMSs. While the stereo camera primarily supports 3D reconstruction of the manipulator working area\, the wrist mounted camera enables dynamic viewpoint acquisition for detecting objects\, such as tools\, and extending the scene reconstruction beyond the fixed stereo view. An objective of this dissertation was also to apply deep learning based visual methods to the underwater domain. While deep learning has greatly advanced the state-of-the-art in terrestrial based visual methods across diverse applications\, the challenges of accessing the underwater environment and collecting underwater datasets for training these methods has hindered progress in advancing visual methods for underwater applications. \n\nFollowing is an overview of the contributions made by this dissertation. The first contribution is a novel deep learning method for object detection and pose estimation from monocular images. The second contribution is a general framework for adapting monocular image-based pose estimation networks to work on full fisheye or omni-directional images with minimal modification to the network architecture. The third contribution is a visual SLAM method designed for UVMSs that fuses features from both the wrist mounted fisheye camera and the vehicle mounted stereo pair into the same map\, where the map scale is constrained by the stereo features\, and the wrist camera can actively extend the map beyond the limited stereo view. The fourth contribution is an open-source tool to aid the design of underwater camera and lighting systems. The fifth contribution is an autonomy framework for UVMS manipulator control and the vision system that was used throughout this dissertation work\, along with experimental results from field trials in natural deep ocean environments\, including an active submarine volcano in the Mediterranean basin. This chapter also describes the collection and processing of underwater datasets\, captured with our vision system in these natural deep ocean environments. These datasets supported the development of the visual methods contributed by this dissertation.

Galaxy surveys\, which observe the positions and shapes of galaxies across large areas of the sky\, are able to map a significant fraction of our cosmic volume\, providing one of the most powerful probes of the Universe. I will describe how we use millions (or billions) of galaxies to measure both galaxy clustering and weak gravitational lensing\, and how we learn about the Universe by analyzing these statistics. A significant challenge is that most of the Universe is “dark\,” and we must infer from the roughly 5% visible fraction what the remaining 95% is doing. I will focus on the current state of the art\, the Year 3 cosmology results from the Dark Energy Survey. I will also preview the exciting future of the field\, with the Rubin Observatory and the Dark Energy Spectroscopic Instrument. \n UID:89471-21663196@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/89471 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Physics,Science LOCATION:West Hall - 340 CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20211021T145535 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20211201T160000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20211201T170000 SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Department of Computational Medicine & Bioinformatics Weekly Seminar DESCRIPTION:Abstract:\n\nEpigenetic control of gene expression is highly cell-type- and context-specific. Yet\, despite its complexity\, gene regulatory logic can be broken down into modular components consisting of a transcription factor (TF) activating or repressing the expression of a target gene through its binding to a cis-regulatory region. Recent advances in joint profiling of transcription and chromatin accessibility with single-cell resolution offer unprecedented opportunities to interrogate such regulatory logic. Here\, we propose a nonparametric approach\, TRIPOD\, to detect and characterize three-way relationships between a TF\, its target gene\, and the accessibility of the TF’s binding site\, using single-cell RNA and ATAC multiomic data. We apply TRIPOD to interrogate cell-type-specific regulatory logic in peripheral blood mononuclear cells and contrast our results to detections from enhancer databases\, cis-eQTL studies\, ChIP-seq experiments\, and TF knockdown/knockout studies. We then apply TRIPOD to mouse embryonic brain data during neurogenesis and gliogenesis and identified known and novel putative regulatory relationships\, validated by ChIP-seq and PLAC-seq. Finally\, we demonstrate TRIPOD on SHARE-seq data of differentiating mouse hair follicle cells and identify lineage-specific regulation supported by histone marks for gene activation and super-enhancer annotations.\n\nHosted by: Joshua Welch\, PhD\n\nSpeaker will be in-person and the seminar will be live-streamed via Zoom.\n\nZoom: https://umich-health.zoom.us/j/93929606089?pwd=SHh6R1FOQm8xMThRemdxTEFMWWpVdz09 UID:88514-21654664@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/88514 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Basic Science,Biology,Biomedical Engineering,Biosciences,Cardiovascular,Chemistry,Discussion,Electrical Engineering and Computer Science,Engineering,Environment,Free,Holiday,Human Genetics,Information and Technology,Learning Health Systems,Lecture,Life Science,Mathematics,Medicine,Pediatrics,Physics,Public Health,Research,Science,seminar,Structural Biology,Talk LOCATION:Palmer Commons - Forum Hall, 4th Floor CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20211130T132325 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20211201T160000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20211201T172000 SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Macroeconomics and Labor Joint Seminar: DESCRIPTION:Details to come.
