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.

Making good decisions requires uncovering causal relationships from data. Many causal estimation problems reduce to estimating a model that satisfies a set of conditional moment restrictions. We develop an approach for estimating flexible models defined via conditional moment restrictions\, with a prototypical application being non-parametric instrumental variable regression. We introduce a min-max criterion function\, under which the estimation problem can be thought of as solving a zero-sum game between a modeler who is optimizing over the hypothesis space of the target causal model and an adversary who identifies violating moments over a test function space. We analyze the statistical estimation rate of the resulting estimator for arbitrary hypothesis spaces\, with respect to an appropriate analogue of the mean squared error metric\, for ill-posed inverse problems. We show that when the minimax criterion is regularized with a second moment penalty on the test function and the test function space is sufficiently rich\, then the estimation rate scales with the critical radius of the hypothesis and test function spaces\, a quantity which typically gives tight fast rates. Our main result follows from a novel localized Rademacher analysis of statistical learning problems defined via minimax objectives. We provide applications of our main results for several hypothesis spaces used in practice such as: reproducing kernel Hilbert spaces\, high dimensional sparse linear functions\, spaces defined via shape constraints\, ensemble estimators such as random forests\, and neural networks. For each of these applications we provide computationally efficient optimization methods for solving the corresponding minimax problem and stochastic first-order heuristics for neural networks.\nBased on joint works with: Nishanth Dikkala\, Greg Lewis and Lester Mackey\n\n*To join the seminar\, please contact: econometrics-seminar-requests@umich.edu UID:89547-21664067@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/89547 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Economics,seminar LOCATION:Off Campus Location CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20211130T110050 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20211202T150000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20211202T161500 SUMMARY:Class / Instruction:Chair's Distinguished Lecture: Leveraging Multiple Information Sources to Enable High-Fidelity Uncertainty Quantification DESCRIPTION:Michael S. Eldred\nOptimization & Uncertainty Quantification Dept\nSandia National Laboratories\n\nComputational simulation continues to advance in its predictive capability through the development of high-fidelity multi-physics/multi-scale simulation models\, with unprecedented resolution enabled by the latest high-performance computers. Uncertainty quantification (UQ) methodologies are challenged in this environment\, both by the prohibitive cost of computing high-fidelity ensembles and by the increasing number of uncertainty sources that is often induced by this model complexity. One strategy to address these challenges is to harness the utility that exists within hierarchies of model forms (multifidelity) and resolution levels (multilevel and multi-index) in order to control multiple sources of error while optimizing the allocation of simulation resources. By relaxing the need for exclusive reliance on the most expensive models\, high-fidelity UQ studies become tractable. This talk will overview our work in R&D of multilevel/multifidelity (ML/MF) algorithms and new directions identified in deployments to DOE mission areas.\n \nAbout the speaker...\nMike received his B.S. in Aerospace Engineering from Virginia Tech in 1989\, his M.S.E. and Ph.D. in Aerospace Engineering from the University of Michigan in 1990 and 1993\, and is currently a Distinguished Member of the Technical Staff in the Optimization and Uncertainty Quantification Department within the Center for Computing Research at Sandia National Laboratories.\n\nMike is an Associate Fellow of the American Institute of Aeronautics and Astronautics (AIAA) and a member of the Society for Industrial and Applied Mathematics (SIAM)\, the International Society for Structural and Multidisciplinary Optimization (ISSMO)\, and the United States Association for Computational Mechanics (USACM).

U-M Industrial and Operations Engineering graduate students and faculty are especially encouraged to attend.\n\nTitle: Finding low-dimensional structure in messy data\n\nAbstract:\nIn order to draw inferences from large\, high-dimensional datasets\, we often seek simple structure that models the phenomena represented in those data. Low-rank linear structure is one of the most flexible and efficient such models\, allowing efficient prediction\, inference\, and anomaly detection. However\, classical techniques for learning low-rank models assume your data have only minor corruptions that are uniform over samples. Modern research in optimization has begun to develop new techniques to handle realistic messy data — where data are missing\, have wide variations in quality\, and/or are observed through nonlinear measurement systems.\n\nIn this talk I will give a high-level overview of recent research in this area. Then I will focus on the problem of learning linear subspace structure from multiple data sources of varying quality. This is common in problems like sensor networks or medical imaging\, where different measurements of the same phenomenon are taken with different quality sensing (eg high or low radiation). In this context\, learning the low-rank structure via PCA suffers from treating all data samples as if they are equally informative. I will discuss our theoretical results on weighted PCA. I will then present new algorithms for the non-convex probabilistic PCA formulation of this problem and a novel SDP relaxation.\n\nBio:\nLaura Balzano is an associate professor of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science\, and of Statistics by courtesy\, at the University of Michigan.

Please join us!\n\nDr. Pulkkinen's presentation is titled \"Extreme geomagnetic storm scenarios and NASA Goddard Space Flight Center’s Heliophysics Science Division\" and will take place on Thursday\, December 2 at 3:30 p.m. EDT.\n\nThis seminar will be zoom only.\nPlease contact lhopkins@umich to request zoom access.\n\nABSTRACT:\nIn this talk\, I will cover two somewhat separate but yet connected topics: i) extreme geomagnetic storms in the context of power grids\, ii) introduction to NASA Goddard Space Flight Center’s Heliophysics Science Division. In the first piece\, I will be wearing my research scientist hat and in the second\, my Division Director hat.\n\nExtreme geomagnetic storms pose a major threat to ground-based infrastructure and electric power transmission systems in particular. There has been a major recent focus on improving our understanding of extreme storms and allowing the new understanding to flow into detailed power engineering hazard assessments. Also the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC) has been involved and we have a framework in place that requires all U.S. utilities operating at or above 200 kV to carry out detailed hazard assessments. In the first part of the presentation\, I will discuss the development of extreme geomagnetic storm scenarios for the power engineering hazard assessments. I will also briefly discuss my own role in the regulatory work.\n\nThe NASA Goddard Space Flight Center’s Heliophysics Science Division (HSD) vision is “To discover and innovate in heliophysics for the benefit of those on Earth and those exploring the solar system.\" HSD conducts research on the Sun\, its extended solar-system environment (the heliosphere)\, and interactions of Earth\, other planets\, small bodies\, and interstellar gas with the heliosphere. Division research also encompasses geospace -- Earth's uppermost atmosphere\, the ionosphere\, and the magnetosphere -- and the changing environmental conditions throughout the coupled heliosphere. Scientists in the HSD develop models\, spacecraft missions and instruments\, and systems to manage and disseminate heliophysical data. They interpret and evaluate data gathered from instruments\, draw comparisons with computer simulations and theoretical models\, and publish the results. In the second part of the presentation\, I will introduce you to our Division and discuss how you can get involved with our work.\n\nBIO:\nDr. Pulkkinen is currently Acting Director of the Heliophysics Science Division at NASA Goddard Space Flight Center. Dr. Pulkkinen received his Ph.D. in theoretical physics from the University of Helsinki\, Finland in 2003. Subsequently he joined the nonlinear dynamics group at NASA Goddard Space Flight Center to carry out his postdoctoral research 2004-2006. Dr. Pulkkinen's Ph.D. and postdoctoral research involved studies on both ground effects of space weather and complex nonlinear dynamics of the magnetosphere-ionosphere system. 2011-2013 Dr. Pulkkinen worked as an Associate Director of Institute for Astrophysics and Computational Sciences and as an Associate Professor at The Catholic University of America (CUA). At CUA Dr. Pulkkinen launched a new Space Sciences and Space Weather program crafted to educate the next generation space weather scientists and operators. Dr Pulkkinen entered NASA civil service in 2013 to lead the Space Weather Research Center that provided heliophysics science and space weather services to NASA's robotic mission. 2017-2020 Dr Pulkkinen was the Deputy Director for the NASA GSFC Heliophysics Science Division.

The sophisticated interactions of neural control systems with the body and mind has limited our ability to predict the effects of neural interfaces in advance\, which forces the field to rely on painstaking animal experiments to test and design the devices. This work presents an alternate way forward using new functionally predictive hybrid models that let us prototype and test neural interfaces in cheap\, low-risk settings to get the most out of the cumbersome and expensive animal and human studies that require implanted electrodes. The key innovation is to combine parts of traditionally separate model systems (animal\, human\, mathematical\, or statistical) into hybrid frameworks that use the strengths of each type to make accurate\, use-case predictions about the effects of new neural interfaces.\nDetails:\nDATE: Thursday\, December 2\, 2021\nTIME: 4:00-5:00 pm\nLOCATION: Cooley G906\nZOOM LINK: https://umich.zoom.us/j/97723483179 UID:89543-21664063@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/89543 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:biomedical,biomedical engineering,engineering,Life Science,Medicine,Michigan Engineering LOCATION:Off Campus Location - Cooley G906 CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20211202T181531 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20211202T160000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20211202T173000 SUMMARY:Other:3rd Year Analytical Student Seminars DESCRIPTION:Analytical\n Analytical Seminar Speaker UID:89241-21661209@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/89241 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Biosciences,Chemistry,Science LOCATION:Chemistry Dow Lab - 1640 CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20211101T123043 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20211202T160000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20211202T170000 SUMMARY:Careers / Jobs:Crafting a Diversity Statement: Tips for the Academic Job Search and Beyond!

Register here: https://myumi.ch/V75p9\n\nDescription: Pioneering advances in material culture studies over the past half-century and more sustained engagements with (some branches of) postcolonial theory have emboldened historians of the ancient Mediterranean to grant more and more space in their scholarship to the resistance strategies and survival tactics of imperially minoritized groups. At the root of this intensifying attachment to narratives of resistance is the belief that histories of the subaltern can be written\; all we need to do is “read against the grain” of the literary sources\, or avail ourselves of new frameworks for interpreting non-literary material evidence\, in order to recover these histories. Organizing itself around the concept of epistemicide\, my paper will reevaluate this historiographical tendency and propose some alternatives.\n\nBiography: Dan-el Padilla Peralta is associate professor of classics at Princeton University.

Niseko\, Hokkaido\, for example\, has become an international skiing destination. Kirk Patterson thinks that Japan has what it takes to become a marine tourism mecca\, attracting people from around the world who want to swim\, surf\, kayak\, sail\, fish….or just enjoy leisurely strolls on beautiful beaches….and savor delicious Japanese seafood in the evening.\n\nKirk Patterson had a 25-year management career in Tokyo\, including cofounding Japan’s first investor relations company\; being AIG’s Regional VP for Corporate Communications in Japan and Korea\; and serving as president/dean of Temple University Japan. He took early retirement in 2007 to pursue his long-delayed desire to become an offshore sailor\, returning to Canada and spending four years teaching himself how to sail. He then sailed to Hawaii (where he spent a year working as a Waikiki bartender) and then on to Japan\, devoting three years to a full circumnavigation of the country (the first by a foreigner) and then another three years cruising western Japan. He swallowed the anchor two years ago and now\, based in Fukuoka\, operates Konpira Consulting\, a marine-tourism company.\n\nRegister for this Zoom event here: https://umich.zoom.us/webinar/register/WN_z3u_0SC3TVu3vx5xdP03hQ\n\nIf there is anything we can do to make this event accessible to you\, please contact us.

The opener and title track pairs a delicate vocal with lithely plucked acoustic strings as he urges everyone to\, “Shine on\, shine on.” UID:71504-17836314@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/71504 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:The Ark LOCATION:Off Campus Location CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20211130T181517 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20211202T200000 SUMMARY:Performance:Student Chamber Music Series DESCRIPTION:Chamber music groups of all combinations present programs featuring music from old to new for strings\, woodwinds\, brass\, and piano.\n\n\n \nKleine Kammermusik for Wind Quintet\, op. 24\, no. 2 - Paul Hindemith\nJade Juleps \nLeo Viglietti\, flute\; Jonathan Krause\, oboe\;\nAnnie McPherson\, clarinet\; Eddie Martinez\, bassoon\; Riley Rich\, horn\n\nSonata for 2 Violins in C Major\, op. 56 - Sergei Prokofiev \nFiona Cunningham-Murray & Caleb Zhang\, violin\n\nTrombone Quartet no. 1 - Saskia Apon \nCooper Cromwell-Whitley\, Yuki Mori\, Shonn Olegario & Avery Wolf\, trombone \n\nQuintet in G Minor\, op. 39 - Sergei Prokofiev \nSarah Pinto\, oboe\; Lia Boncoeur\, clarinet\nMay Tang\, violin\; Julia Daniels\, viola\; Emani Barber\, bass\n\nAcht Stücke (Eight Pieces)\, op. 83 - Max Bruch \nDrew Franklin\, clarinet\; Jacob Westerbeke\, viola\; Tzu Kuang Tan\, piano\n\nClarinet Trio in D Minor\, op. 3 - Alexander Zemlinsky \nCraig Swink\, clarinet\; Jonathan Lien\, cello\; Theron Masters\, piano\n\nString Quartet No. 4 in E Minor\, op. 44\, no. 2 - Felix Mendelssohn \nEugenia Cho & Kathy Zhang\, violin\nJulia Daniels\, viola\; Priscilla Kim\, cello\n\nPiano Trio in G Minor\, Op.15\, JB 1:64 - Bedrich Smetana \nJordan Bartel\, violin\; Emma Cary\, cello\; Tzu Kuang Tan\, piano\n\n\n\nattend in person - no tickets/reservations required\nwatch online at http:/myumi.ch/StampsWatch UID:87941-21647914@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/87941 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Concert,Culture,Free,Music LOCATION:Walgreen Drama Center - Stamps Auditorium CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20211217T183034 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20211202T200000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20211202T210000 SUMMARY:Careers / Jobs:Zed Factor Fellowship Information Session DESCRIPTION:On December 2nd @ 8:00 PM ET\, the Zed Factor Fellowship is hosting an Informational Session for you to learn more about the Zed Factor Fellowship. \n\nMeet the Founding Team and ask all your questions about applying to the Zed Factor Fellowship!

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.

The Role of Strategic Ignorance in Indonesian Agrarian Development DESCRIPTION:Free and open to the public. Register at https://myumi.ch/dOmrB\n\nThe relationship between knowledge and power in agrarian development projects has been widely acknowledged\, but what about the relationship between ignorance and power? Through analysis of Indonesia’s peatland development over the past three decades\, this talk considers how state officials\, scientists\, and corporations have deployed ignorance strategically as a means to land access and control. Drawing on long-term fieldwork in Central Kalimantan\, Indonesia\, Professor Goldstein look specifically at an area called the Mega Rice Project\, a peat swamp forest that was drained for rice production in the mid-1990s and has since undergone dramatic biophysical transformation as the peat burns and releases carbon dioxide into the atmosphere. Since 2000\, this area has been the site of various state and NGO interventions to repair the landscape\, most of which have been deemed failures. She argues that through these peatland development projects\, elite actors have generated passive and active ignorance in ways that serve to protect the developmental status quo.\n \nJenny Goldstein is an assistant professor in the Department of Global Development at Cornell University. She has a Ph.D. in geography from UCLA and works across political ecology\, critical development studies\, and science and technology studies. She has been conducting qualitative fieldwork in Indonesia since 2010 on the political economy of socio-ecological land use change and the politics of climate change knowledge. Other research interests include the human health impacts of ecological change and the role of digital infrastructures in environmental governance. Her recent articles have been published in *Antipode*\, *Environment and Planning E*\, *Singapore Journal of Tropical Geography*\, and *Geoforum*. She is also the co-editor of the forthcoming book *The Nature of Data: Infrastructures\, Environments\, Politics* (University of Nebraska Press\, 2022) and is currently working on a book project about the role of ignorance and uncertainty in Indonesia’s peatland development and restoration.\n\n---\nIf there is anything we can do to make this event accessible to you\, please contact cseas@umich.edu.

Attend in person in 1014 Tisch Hall (no registration required) or stream via Zoom: https://myumi.ch/z1VQA\n\nNationalism uses mythology to bind together different peoples and ideals under a national identity. The mythos requires meaning-making\, differentiating between acceptable and transgressive\, and creating knowledge that can be passed down to maintain and sustain the national identity as canon: it is a foundation. But when the foundation of the mythology is damaged\, harmful\, or fabricated\, the threads of knowledge passed down construct an unsustainable home. When the walls of this mythology keep and parcel out those who are\, in essence\, included in the floorplan of the nation\, burning the house down may be the only logical form of recovery. Rather than a dissolutionary extreme\, Professor Padilla Peralta and other Greco-Roman Classicists of color envision\, like bell hooks\, a whole new homeplace of yearning and resistance. Therefore\, policy and politics of presence\, not absence\, define pathways forward.\n\nThis Eisenberg Institute panel features papers that interrogate disciplines and their canonical and institutional systems of knowledge in the fields of Greco-Egyptian religion\, medieval England\, eighteenth-century Russia\, and American colonial Philippines.\n\nPanelists:\n• Megan Behrend (PhD Candidate\, English Language and Literature\, University of Michigan)\n• Robert Diaz (PhD Student\, History\, University of Michigan)\n• Dora Gao (PhD Student\, Ancient History\, University of Michigan)\n• Forrest Holden (PhD Candidate\, History\, University of Michigan)\n• Ian S.

One method to assess and better understand the Egyptian concept of gender is through the dress of the individuals. Dress has long been understood as a key expression of identity\, especially gender norms. This is especially true since dress is often the first layer of an individual’s identity experienced in social interactions—be it between two individuals meeting for the first time or a modern viewer of a tomb scene. Through an investigation of a few case studies\, I will argue that there is no single masculinity for the New Kingdom elite male. As I will show\, we can see multiple\, overlapping identities being depicted. The contexts in which the tomb owner either dons a kilt or is enrobed in a tunic differs depending on scene type and\, more importantly\, the type of masculinity wishing to be expressed. This presentation will explore the juxtaposition of both of these iterations of masculinity and their function in elite male identity formation and negotiation.

Elucidating the critical interactions that govern condensation via phase separation is challenging due to the lack of applicability of standard structural biological tools to study these highly dynamic large-scale associated states and the lack of applicability of standard bioinformatic tools to study low complexity sequences that are not easily alignable. Using the C-terminal IDR (607 to 709) of CAPRIN1\, an RNA-binding protein found in cytoplasmic biomolecular condensates\, we have applied NMR methods developed by Lewis Kay to obtain site-specific information on key interactions that control phase separation and on the modulation of phase separation by post-translational modifications and ATP. We have developed\, with Alan Moses\, a bioinformatics approach for IDRs that does not require alignments and that identifies conserved molecular features (such as biophysical properties)\, termed “evolutionary signatures.” Groups of IDRs with similar evolutionary signatures are highly enriched for functional annotations and phenotypes\, including clusters that are strongly linked to particular biomolecular condensates. We can utilize a feature-based approach to understand the types of interactions within specific condensates and how disease mutations that perturb conserved features may drive pathology. We also developed a new phase separation predictive tool based on sequence statistics for different physicochemical interactions within the folded protein database that provides insights into the key interactions underlying condensates. These experimental and computational methods should enable deeper understanding of how IDRs contribute to biological regulation via biomolecular condensates.

Scholarship has productively combined analysis of medieval literary texts with modern queer theory – yet\, too often\, questions of gender are explored almost exclusively through a prism of sexuality\, rather than gender identity. This volume moves beyond such limitations\, foregrounding the richness of hagiography as a genre integrally resistant to limiting binaristic categories\, including rigid gender binaries. The collection showcases scholarship by emerging trans and genderqueer authors\, as well as the work of established researchers. Working at the vanguard of historical trans studies\, these scholars demonstrate the vital and vitally political nature of their work as medievalists. \n\nTrans and Genderqueer Subjects in Medieval Hagiography enables the re-creation of a lineage linking modern trans and genderqueer individuals to their medieval ancestors\, providing models of queer identity where much scholarship has insisted there were none\, and re-establishing the place of non-normative gender in history.\n\nThis event is part of IRWG's Gender: New Works\, New Questions series\, which spotlights recent publications by U-M faculty members and allows for deeper discussion by an interdisciplinary panel.\n\nRegister Here: https://myumi.ch/9o2bX UID:86704-21635605@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/86704 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Books,Irwg LOCATION:Off Campus Location CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20211105T153545 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20211203T123000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20211203T131500 SUMMARY:Presentation:Sky Tonight DESCRIPTION:A live presentation showing what is visible in the sky tonight and for the coming few weeks.

To meet the moment\, leaders have sought to heighten aspirations toward racial representation\, equity and inclusion across industries. Bold proclamations in support of Black lives\, and ambitious platforms to invest in Black livelihoods\, have been backed by billions of dollars and coalitions of hundreds of leaders across sectors. As institutions begin to implement these diversity\, equity and inclusion initiatives\, what will they establish as standards for success and indicators of progress? How will organizational leaders and their stakeholders assess whether the racial climate has transformed to reflect greater diversity\, inclusion\, equity\, and justice? During this seminar\, I will introduce a framework for pursuing Freedom at Work\, grounded in the juxtaposition between the democratic ideals of liberty and justice\, and the sociohistorical oppression of enslaved\, African-descended Americans and other minoritized racial groups. I invite scholars and practitioners to analyze relative access to various freedoms at work (i.e.\, expression\, actualization\, deviation\, transformation\, reformation)\, consider how inequity undermines these freedoms\, and examine how freedom fighters from racially diverse and occupationally diverse backgrounds can help leaders to embody the aspirations and ideals they hold for diversity\, inclusion\, equity and justice. This discussion will also explore means for placing guardrails on practices that undermine rather than uphold the liberties of communities that were long-denied access to educational opportunity\, career mobility and economic advancement. In this vein\, I take up the question of how personal leadership commitments and accountability practices might catalyze change\, sustain momentum and advance the equal exercise of freedom at work for members of minoritized racial/ethnic identity groups.

The revised essay of the same title\, published in Ill Will that August\, is seen in radical circles as one of the definitive texts of the uprising. In ten putative theses\, ranging from identity politics\, the current pandemic\, to the legacy of black revolt\, “How It Might Should” sought to facilitate a more direct and focused discussion regarding the stakes of emancipatory transformation at the very heart of empire. Since the uprising\, the crisis has only deepened\, presenting new possibilities and dashing others: In this upcoming talk at the University of Michigan\, Idris will both reassess and expand upon previous themes\, such as a theorization of civil war as stasis\, an examination of the abolitionist race-traitor through the lens of a political theology of martyrdom\, and the libidinal death-drive suffusing American racial dynamics.\n\nIdris Robinson is a Ph.D. candidate in the Department of Philosophy at the University of New Mexico. For over a decade\, he has written extensively on revolt and crisis in both European and American contexts. In his properly academic research\, he works towards cultivating an open and comparative approach that encompasses both contemporary Continental and Anglo-American philosophy\, while remaining informed by insights from various pre-modern traditions. He is currently working on a dissertation on ontological realism\, logical morphology\, and the role of paradigms in the progression of Wittgenstein’s thought.

To meet the goal of limiting global warming to less than 1.5 degrees Celsius calls for storing hundreds of billion tons of CO2 in aquifers. Stored CO2 will partially dissolve into water and acidify the water. The acidified water will\, in turn\, react with minerals strongly. To predict the fate of stored CO2 thousands or tens of thousands of years after injection\, therefore\, needs an understanding of the chemical kinetics of the geochemical reactions at the most fundamental level. In recent years\, my students\, collaborators\, and I have developed an innovative isotope tracer method and have broken new ground in near-equilibrium reaction kinetics\, which fill in a critical knowledge gap relevant to CO2 storage. This presentation will give an overview of geological carbon sequestration efforts and an application of geochemical kinetics to the Sleipner Project in Norway\, the world's first industrial-scale CO2 storage project. The overlap between basic science and the societal need for climate change mitigation becomes clear through this example.

Nuclear thermal propulsion (NTP) and nuclear electric propulsion (NEP) are advanced\, in-space propulsion technologies capable of higher efficiencies than traditional chemical engines\, making them well suited to enable crewed interplanetary missions. In NTP systems\, the reactor acts as a heat exchanger and directly heats a hydrogen propellant to provide high thrust (10s – 100s klbf) at high efficiencies\, i.e. specific impulse (> 800 s). NEP systems use a reactor to generate electricity to power high-efficiency electric propulsion thrusters which enable nearly a magnitude greater specific impulse (> 2000 s)\, but at reduced thrust (0.001 – 1 lbf). Because of these attributes\, space nuclear propulsion technologies have the capability to reduce trip times on the order of half of that compared to the highest performance chemical systems and there has been renewed interest in the development of these systems for future NASA or defense applications within the U.S. There has been extensive development for both NTP and NEP systems through historic space nuclear propulsion programs\, however none of these programs have quite reached the development status desired for implementation of either system in modern missions. Primary hurdles to reactor development have centered around materials development for the extreme operating conditions desired for high-performance space reactors. In this presentation\, the state of the art\, lessons learned\, and remaining knowledge gaps from historic NTP and NEP development programs are summarized. Based on this overview\, critical components for each reactor and remaining materials development challenges are identified. \n \nKeywords: nuclear thermal propulsion\, nuclear electric propulsion\, technology maturation\, reactor\, testing\n\nBio\nKelsa Benensky Palomares\, Ph.D. is the Nuclear Systems Engineering Lead for the Advanced Projects Group of Analytical Mechanics Associates\, Inc. (AMA). Dr. Palomares has a background in the design\, testing\, and experimental investigation of new and novel concepts for nuclear thermal propulsion (NTP) through NTP development programs at NASA Marshall Space Flight Center\, Oak Ridge National Laboratory\, and the Center for Space Nuclear Research. Activities have included re-design and operational verification of MSFC’s compact fuel element environmental test (CFEET) and co-authoring ORNL/LTR-2017/119\, “A Preliminary Nuclear Thermal Propulsion Fuel Qualification Plan”\, to guide the production\, irradiation testing\, and verification of NTP fuel elements for the Department of Energy. She has recently participated as the reactor-subsystem lead for an industry nuclear thermal propulsion flight demonstration study commissioned by NASA and led by AMA and served as a peer reviewer for the National Academy of Science Engineering and Medicine’s report “Space Nuclear Propulsion for Human Mars Exploration”. She currently provides subject matter expertise to ongoing reactor development efforts for NASA’s space nuclear propulsion (SNP) project.

Trautmann Honorary Lecture | (Indian) Animals Are Good to Think With DESCRIPTION:Ancient and medieval Indian literature\, both religious and secular\, is saturated with animals—animal fables\, animal transformations\, animals as instructors or instructive exempla\, animals reflecting human characteristics in a mirror that is not always flattering to the humans so reflected. Much of the animal lore of the Classical period is familiar to most people with even a passing interest in India\, but this talk will explore some lesser known examples\, especially from the earlier\, Vedic period. It will highlight the accuracy of the field observation of animal physiology and behavior and the clever application of this field observation to the particulars in the human sphere. Among the topics treated will be frog mating\, hyena physiology\, and rhinoceros toes.\n\nStephanie Jamison received her PhD in Linguistics from Yale University in 1977\, specializing in historical and Indo-European linguistics.

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.

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.

He's a virtuoso to beat the band! Andy entertains both the eye and the ear with his use of altered tunings\, tapping\, partial capos\, percussive hits\, and with his signature two-handed technique. His guitar performance videos have received hundreds of millions of views on the Internet\, and at one point he held the top three positions on YouTube's list of top-rated videos of all time. After starting out on electric guitar\, Andy switched as a teen to acoustic and began studying the music of Michael Hedges\, Don Ross\, Billy McLaughlin\, and Preston Reed. To this day he still cites those four musicians as primary influences. Master craftsman and innovator at the same time\, Andy McKee is a virtuoso for our time\, and his live shows are absolutely legendary.\n\nThe unfolding era of the music business has provided many fresh opportunities for artists to foster direct and meaningful connections with new audiences around the globe. Trevor Gordon Hall is a powerful emerging voice\, albeit without words to his music\, showing that combining honest heart felt compositions with precise technical virtuosity do not sideline an artist in today’s world but can launch a wider reach than ever before. With an exploding presence on streaming services like Spotify\, YouTube etc.\, a tour calendar that has taken him all over the world\, it’s safe to say that this is a new era for artists like Trevor to engage listeners from all cultures\, languages\, genres\, and backgrounds.

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.

We hypothesize that one feature of formal schooling---engaging in effortful thinking for sustained periods---could increase sustained attention: the ability to maintain focus over time. To motivate this idea\, we document that globally and in the US\, the poor exhibit worse sustained attention than the rich across a variety of field behaviors\; they also attend schools that are less likely to require them to engage in concentration. We test our hypothesis using a field experiment with 1\,650 low-income Indian primary school students. We assign students to engage in cognitive activity for sustained periods during the school day\, using either math content (mimicking good schooling) or non-academic content (providing a pure test of our mechanism). Each approach markedly improves sustained attention across disparate domains: academics\, listening\, IQ tests\, and traditional psychology measures. Moreover\, the treatments increase students' regular school performance in Hindi\, English\, and math. This indicates that simply spending time in effortful thinking---without learning any subject content---substantively improves traditional measures of human capital. Our findings support a broader view of how schooling shapes general human capital\, and suggest that worse environments may disadvantage poor children by hampering the development of core cognitive capacity.

These methods\, she argues\, encode segregation\, eugenics\, and identity politics through their default assumptions and conditions. Correlation\, which grounds big data's predictive potential\, stems from twentieth-century eugenic attempts to “breed” a better future. Recommender systems foster angry clusters of sameness through homophily. Users are “trained” to become authentically predictable via a politics and technology of recognition. Machine learning and data analytics thus seek to disrupt the future by making disruption impossible.\n\nWendy Hui Kyong Chun is Simon Fraser University’s Canada 150 Research Chair in New Media and leads the Digital Democracies Institute. She is the author of several works including Control and Freedom: Power and Paranoia in the Age of Fiber Optics (MIT\, 2006)\, Programmed Visions: Software and Memory (MIT\, 2011)\, Updating to Remain the Same: Habitual New Media (MIT\, 2016)\, Discriminating Data (MIT\, 2021)\, and the co-author of Pattern Discrimination (University of Minnesota & Meson Press\, 2019).

Studying these mutations provides important insight into the development\, maintenance and structure of normal tissues\, the mutational processes that have been operative\, and the role of selection in shaping cell populations. It can elucidate how each of these are altered by\, or contribute to\, cancer\, other diseases\, and ageing. However\, characterising such mutations has been technically challenging\, as normal cell populations consist of myriad small clones\, with the mutations differing between clones. We employed laser capture microscopy combined with low input-DNA whole genome sequencing\, to study clonal units across multiple cell types from the same individuals. We compared the mutational landscape in 29 cell types from the soma and germline. Our results revealed the extent of variation in clonal dynamics across tissues. Mutation rates vary between different cell types\, with stem cells of the intestinal epithelium exhibiting the highest mutation rates and germ-cells in testis exhibited the lowest mutation rates thus far reported. Several mutational signatures were observed among normal cell types. However\, most mutations in almost all cell types were due to SBS1 and SBS5\, which are likely due to endogenous mutagenic processes. The relative contributions of these signatures differed between cell types\, indicating that their rates of generation are\, at least partially\, independently regulated.\n\nRegister on Zoom at https://tinyurl.com/b59rmbk6 UID:89632-21664587@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/89632 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Biointerfaces,Biology,Biomedical Engineering,Biosciences,Chemistry,Engineering,Graduate School,Life Science,Natural Sciences,Postdoctoral Research Fellows LOCATION:Off Campus Location CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20210922T161858 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20211206T130000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20211206T150000 SUMMARY:Meeting:Semester in Detroit Office Hours (Mondays) DESCRIPTION:Come to Semester in Detroit office hours with Semester in Detroit alumni Ali Elatrache.

Reflecting this\, ecosystem models frequently underestimate\, or even neglect biological parameters associated with ice cover. Despite the perceived inhospitable environment imposed by cold temperatures and ice cover during winter in Lake Erie\, work over the past decade has revealed numerous examples of high biological activity with abundant phytoplankton biomass dominated by psychrophilic\, filamentous diatoms. The diatoms are physiologically robust and the diatom bloom persists through early spring\, eventually contributing to carbon export in Lake Erie’s central basin. During mild winters\, the bloom is reduced\, likely due to light limitation coincident with deep wind-aided mixing. These surveys have demonstrated that diatom assemblages possess ice nucleating abilities\, a characteristic promoting ice formation and which enables the winter diatoms to maintain a favorable position in the photic zone when the lake is ice covered. Our recent efforts have focused on mechanisms of bloom decline where chytrid parasites and other pathogens are implicated. Broadening the impact of this research has been a unique partnership with the U.S. Coast Guard promoting citizen science in support of winter data collection.\n\nAbout the speaker: In 2019\, Mike McKay joined the University of Windsor where he serves as the Executive Director of the Great Lakes Institute for Environmental Research and Professor in the School of the Environment. Mike received undergraduate- and graduate degrees in Biology from Queen’s University at Kingston and McGill University (Montréal)\, respectively. Upon completion of his doctoral work\, he held postdoctoral fellowships at the University of Alaska Fairbanks and with the University of Delaware where he served concurrently at the Department of Energy’s Brookhaven National Laboratory on Long Island\, NY. It was during this period that Mike became active in research on aquatic nutrient cycling through his involvement with the ecosystem-scale ocean iron fertilization projects being conducted by scientific personnel from Brookhaven at that time. Mike’s research expanded to include large lakes on his arrival to Bowling Green State University where he served on the faculty for over 21 years studying the biogeochemical cycling of nutrients\, phytoplankton and bacterial community dynamics and more recently\, winter limnology involving research coordination with icebreaking programs of Canadian- and U.S. Coast Guards.\n\nAmong Mike’s research honors\, he was awarded an Alexander von Humboldt Foundation Research Fellowship in 2005 where he was resident at the Helmholtz Centre for Ocean Research Kiel (Germany) and in 2013\, was named Visiting Scholar at the Large Lakes Observatory of the University of Minnesota. He is the author of over 95 peer-reviewed manuscripts\, is a co-recipient of the 2019 John Martin award from ASLO and currently serves as an Associate Editor for the Journal of Great Lakes Research.

Science-in-Vivo: Experimental Methods for the 'Bananapocalypse DESCRIPTION:Fusarium Wilt Tropical Race Four is a deadly soil-borne fungal disease that has stumped the global banana industry. While pesticides are systematically employed to control the spread of disease on plantations\, the failures to develop a chemical control for Fusarium Wilt has exposed the paradigm limits of conventional agricultural science. In this talk\, I introduce the notion of ‘science-in-vivo’\, a method of experimentation that has emerged in the context of Philippine banana plantations ravaged by the ‘incurable’ fungal disease. Literally ‘science within the living body’\, the method combines secular and non-secular thought\, and gathers human\, nonhuman\, and extrahuman forces in ways that break down some of the hegemonic antagonisms that define plantation life. I argue that renewed scientific sensibility offers a way to expand local strategies for transformative activist praxis in a sector where political horizons have only narrowed. The method was inspired\, originally\, by a series of God-given dreams about microbes in the forests of southern Mindanao.\n\nBio: Alyssa Paredes is LSA Collegiate Fellow in the Department of Anthropology at the University of Michigan\, Ann Arbor\, where she will be Assistant Professor in 2022. Her research concerns the human\, environmental\, and metabolic infrastructures of transnational trade between the Philippines and Japan. Her first book project\, preliminarily titled Bananapocalypse: Plantation Commodities and the Conceit of Ecological Externality\, identifies the conventions of crop science\, agrochemical regulation\, market segmentation techniques\, and food standards as arenas where actors contend over the commodity chain’s production calculus. Her work appears in Ethnos: Journal of Anthropology\, the Journal of Political Ecology\, the Journal of Material Culture\, as well as in edited collections such as Feral Atlas: The More-than-Human Anthropocene (Stanford\, 2020)\, The Promise of Multispecies Justice (Duke\, forthcoming 2022)\, and the Japanese-language volume 甘いバナナの苦い現実 [The Bitter Reality of Sweet Bananas] (Commons\, 2020).

The overarching message is that data science is at the core of informed decisions\, interventions\, and ultimately at the core of system’s transformations.\n\nNicoleta Serban is Virginia C. and Joseph C.

The event will conclude with an open Q&A.\n\nAnheuser-Busch InBev\, or AB InBev\, is a publicly-traded multinational drinks conglomerate headquartered in Belgium. It’s the world’s largest beer brewer by both volume and revenue\, operating more than 600 beer brands in 150 countries. AB InBev was formed in 2008 through the acquisition of Budweiser brewer Anheuser-Busch by Belgian conglomerate InBev—which is itself a merger of Stella Artois-maker Interbrew and Brazil’s AmBev. In 2015\, AB InBev acquired its biggest rival in North America\, SABMiller\, for $107 billion. The deal required the sale of a number of SABMiller brands\, including Miller and Coors\, to satisfy antitrust regulators. In recent years\, acknowledging the consumer trend away from mass-produced lagers\, AB InBev has rapidly acquired U.S. and international craft brewers including Goose Island\, Blue Point\, and Camden Town Brewery. Some of its popular brands include Budweiser\, Michelo\, Corona\, Bush\, and Natural Light. Learn more at https://www.anheuser-busch.com/about.html .\n\nMolson Coors is a publicly-traded multinational drinks conglomerate with twin headquarters in Golden\, Colorado\, and Montreal\, Canada\, though officially considered a U.S. firm. In sales\, it holds the number one position in Canada\, the number two rank in the United Kingdom\, and the number three slot in the U.S. Coors Light\, the firm's biggest-seller\, is the fourth best-selling beer in the United States\; Molson Canadian is the best seller in English-speaking Canada\; and Carling ranks as the best-selling lager in the United Kingdom. Other key brands include Blue Moon\, Dos Equiz\, and La Colombe. In 2005\, it was formed through a merger of two companies with deep roots — Molson Inc.\, established in 1786\, the oldest brewery in North America\; and Adolph Coors\, established in 1873 — both of which were still under control of their respective founding families. Following the merger\, the Coors and Molson families jointly controlled Molson Coors\, each holding one-third of the voting power.

He hasn’t moved to LA or Nashville\; he’s stayed in the cold grey north of Minnesota\, because that’s his home. Charlie makes his Smithsonian Folkways Recordings debut with ‘Last of The Better Days Ahead’\, out worldwide July 30\, 2021.\n\nDead Horses isn’t a band in the conventional sense. Rather\, it’s an intimate\, folk-inspired conversation between two close friends. At its core\, the participants are guitarist/singer Sarah Vos and bassist Daniel Wolff. Dead Horses weave together a vibrant patchwork of classic and contemporary influences that span trad roots\, indie- folk\, and other experimental musical idioms. Through it all\, the union of Sarah’s emotive songwriting with Dan’s intrepid bass playing transcends the singer-songwriter-with-backup-musicians paradigm.

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.

A weird machine has its own peculiar instruction set and program semantics\, designed by no one and existing entirely by accident. In this seminar\, I will be demonstrating the utility of *genetic programming* (GP) as a technique for exploring the space of programs implicit in a particular variety of \"weird machine\": the variety exploited by *return-oriented programming* (ROP)\, a remote code execution technique that\, over the past two decades\, has been used by attackers to subvert the separation of writeable and executable memory imposed by various operating systems as a security feature. I will show how it is possible to evolve ROP payloads and breed them to carry out various tasks\, by means of applying certain selective pressures to \"populations\" of integer sequences\, equipped with the genetic operators of mutation and crossover. We will look particularly closely at an observed correlation between the availability of crossover (a crude form of sexual reproduction) and the likelihood of a population to discover recombinable ROP \"gadgets\" when initialized with a pool of random integers.

In particular\, sound processing supports everyday human behaviors such as communicating with others\, avoiding oncoming traffic\, learning from a scientific talk and enjoying music and dance. Many non-human animals also rely on sound processing for communication\, danger avoidance\, food-seeking and learning. The neural mechanisms supporting such complex functions must integrate the physical attributes of incoming sounds with behavioral context\, sound meaning and previous experience. In this talk I will provide an overview of a few projects in our lab that aim to reveal the neural mechanisms supporting behavior-\, time- and learning- dependent sound processing.

Today\, managers must navigate the effects of these past actions when making decisions about marsh hydrology and drainage that impact human health\, ecosystem services\, and marsh sustainability. Managers must also consider how stressors such as sea-level rise impact marshes. A team of scientists including staff from the Waquoit Bay Reserve in Massachusetts helped to address this challenge by working iteratively with coastal managers and restoration practitioners to develop a decision support tool for marsh hydrology management strategies that promote sustainability and continued delivery of valuable ecosystem services under future sea level rise scenarios.\n\nIn this webinar\, the project team shares both the collaborative and technical aspects of their approach and the resultant Marsh Sustainability and Hydrology Decision Support Tool. The tool predicts potential outcomes of ditch and runnel maintenance in micro- and macro-tidal salt marshes under different scenarios of suspended sediment input and sea level rise.

AFI is based on the manipulation of atom cloud in a free-fall-tower using laser pulses to create a superposition of two momentum space pathways. The interferometric signal contrast is limited by variations in the initial velocity of the atoms in the cloud and variations in the laser amplitude over the cross-section of the cloud. A robust pulse scheme must provide separation\, mirroring\, and recombination of the atoms to high precision over a realistic range of these variations. In our work we apply optimal control theory to design suitable pulse sequences to improve the efficiency of the AFI device. Our methodology relies on the simulation of the interferometer's full quantum dynamics. We test the efficacy of the proposed pulse schemes using adiabatic passage with frequency-chirped pulses and explore numerical optimal control theory to generate robust pulse schemes and formulate the most general control conditions for the implementation of an interferometer. \n\nApplying optimal control theory for the efficient generation of N-atom non-classical states and their use for atom interferometry and quantum metrology are also discussed. As an example\, we design a novel pulse sequence that drives an ensemble of cold trapped atoms into an optimal squeezed state. These states have a fundamental precision scaling proportional to the inverse of the number of atoms\, known as the Heisenberg limit. \n\n UID:89550-21664101@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/89550 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Physics,Science LOCATION:West Hall - 335 CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20211118T130218 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20211207T160000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20211207T173000 SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Functional MRI 2021-22 Speaker Series with Alberto L. Vazquez\, Ph.D. DESCRIPTION:Abstract:\n\nOptical and magnetic resonance based imaging methods are uncovering information about brain function and dysfunction with an unprecedented level of detail. Transgenic rodent models have enabled the dissection of neuronal cell-type contributions to vascular responses and hemodynamic imaging in the mammalian brain. These studies motivate the use of high-resolution fMRI for estimating excitatory and inhibitory activity from hemodynamic responses as well as monitoring brain dysfunction in an array of brain diseases. Altogether\, these findings continue to support a bright future for fMRI and hemodynamic imaging methods for basic and clinical research studies.\n\nYou can attend in person: 4 p.m. Herbert H.

DeVotchKa is requiring proof of vaccination or negative test within 48 hours.\n\nA cross-pollination of numerous influences\, including cabaret\, spaghetti Westerns\, norteño\, punk\, and the immigrant dance music of Eastern Europe\, Colorado-based quartet DeVotchKa\, formed in Denver by multi-instrumentalists Nick Urata (vocals\, guitar\, trumpet)\, \n\nTom Hagerman (violin\, accordion)\, Jeanie Schroder (sousaphone\, bass) and percussionist Shawn King\, emerged as unlikely indie heroes in the mid-2000s infusing modern indie music with a global flavor.\n\nThey found widespread success in 2006 with their Grammy-nominated soundtrack to the hit indie film Little Miss Sunshine. Signing with revered indie\, Anti-\, the band delivered A Mad and Faithful Telling in early 2008\, reaching the number nine slot on the Billboard Heatseekers chart. A lengthy world tour followed\, including stops at major festivals like Bonnaroo\, Lollapalooza\, and Bumbershoot. After doing more soundtrack work\, this time for the 2009 comedy I Love You Phillip Morris\, the group returned to the studio for 2011’s moody and triumphant 100 Lovers. Embarking on another world tour\, they collaborated with the Colorado Symphony on the 2012 concert album Live with the Colorado Symphony. Over the next several years\, Urata became increasingly involved in his own film composition career\, scoring movies like Crazy Stupid Love\, Whiskey Tango Foxtrot\, Paddington\, and the Netflix series A Series of Unfortunate Events. Meanwhile\, the band regrouped for a lengthy recording session\, eventually returning in 2018 with their sixth album\, This Night Falls Forever\, this time via Concord Records.\n\nSigned poster available for $30 - choose the Ticket + Poster ticket to get the poster!

They’re among the first to truly give voice and openly represent Jewish American culture\, tradition\, values and spirituality in the world of American roots music. In a testament to the unbridled imagination and extraordinary grace of their musicianship\, each track on Songs for the Sparrows ineffably evokes the sensation of roaming through the unknown. True to the album’s spirit of loving inclusivity\, Lindberg and Zasloff\, have created an elegantly wayward sound by melding elements of everything from Americana and Appalachian bluegrass to Celtic folk and Eastern European music. Not only a reflection of their vast musical knowledge\, that open-hearted embracing of so many eclectic genres also speaks to the joyful curiosity that animates every aspect of their artistry.

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.

Sections 508 (covering use of accessible information and communication technology) and 501(addressing reasonable accommodation) of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973 compliance standards have been around for a long time—but the survey research industry has often taken the path providing reasonable (non-technological) accommodations for study participants. These often involve alternate modes of data collection\, but rarely provide a truly equitable solution for study participation. If a web-based survey is not compliant with assistive technologies\, the participant may be offered the option of completing a survey with an interviewer. Survey methodologists know well that introducing a live human interaction may change how participants respond—especially if the study involves sensitive topics. Imagine a workplace survey on Diversity\, Equity\, and Inclusion where a sight-impaired employee is asked to answer questions about how they are treated in their workplace\, but they are required to answer these questions through an interviewer\, and not privately via a website. Not only is this request not equitable for the employee (fully sighted employees get to respond more privately)\, it can also bias the results if the participant is not honest about the struggle for fear of receiving backlash from their employer if the interviewer passed along their frustrations. In the act of being denied equitable participation\, future decisions will then be made on potentially faulty results about the experience of such people.\n \nIn this presentation\, I will focus on developing an equitable research design\, partially through considering the overall study—not just the technology itself. But we will also share experiences in the development of a highly accessible web-based survey that is compliant with screen reading technology (screen readers\, mouse input grids\, voice\, keyboard navigation\, etc.). I will present experimental\, anecdotal\, and descriptive experiences with accessible web-based surveys and research designs in higher education student\, faculty\, and staff surveys conducted on the topic of Diversity\, Equity\, and Inclusion. Our results will be directly relevant for inclusion and equity in these settings as well as some surprising unintended positive consequences of some of these design decisions. Lastly\, I will also share some next steps for where the field may go in continuing to improve in these areas.

The geroscience hypothesis proposes that intervention to slow or reverse accumulation of these changes can delay or prevent chronic disease and extend healthy lifespan. Animal experiments establish proof of concept for geroscience. Now\, new methods to quantify the progress and pace of biological aging are opening frontiers for human translation. Quantifications of biological aging have potential to advance understanding of how genes and environments shape health across the lifespan and to guide efforts devise interventions that modify processes of aging with the goal of preventing disease. The talk will review progress in the field\, introduce a new method to quantify the pace of biological aging from DNA methylation\, DunedinPACE\, and present results from the CALERIE randomized controlled trial\, which tested effects of 2 years of calorie restriction in healthy\, non-obese humans.

Eight kinds of one-dimensional (1D) objects (four\; vector-like\, the other four\; director-like) and their dot/cross products are defined in terms of symmetry. The dot or products form certain mathematical groups. Those 1D objects are associated with characteristic physical phenomena\, and when a 3D system has identical or lower (but not higher) symmetries than an 1D object with particular phenomena\, the 3D system can exhibit the phenomena. Using this straightforward concept\, we can understand and also predict numerous new emergent phenomena in known materials or new complex materials for desired phenomena. \n UID:89490-21663320@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/89490 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Physics,Science LOCATION:West Hall - 335 CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20211027T162607 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20211208T120000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20211208T132000 SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:WCEE Book Series.

In hundreds of separate incidents\, ordinary people robbed their Jewish neighbors with impunity\, burned down their houses\, ripped apart their Torah scrolls\, sexually assaulted them\, and killed them. Largely forgotten today\, these pogroms—ethnic riots—dominated headlines and international affairs in their time. Aid workers warned that six million Jews were in danger of complete extermination. Twenty years later\, these dire predictions would come true.\n \nJeffrey Veidlinger is Joseph Brodsky Collegiate Professor of History and Judaic Studies at the University of Michigan.

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.

Human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) is one such virus that emerged over 30 years ago and still has no effective vaccine. Like many other antigenically variable viruses\, after infection\, HIV quickly mutates to evade broadly neutralizing antibodies that bind tightly to key sites to prevent infection. Over 250 clinical trials have been performed to date to develop an effective HIV vaccine\, with only one providing moderate protection\; the RV144 Thai trial\, estimated to be 31% effective but has not been replicated in other populations. Rather than broadly neutralizing antibodies\, the trial identified IgG antibodies with the capacity to induce Fc effector functions as a correlate of protection. These functions are triggered by less specific antibodies that bind HIV antigen and Fc receptors on the surface of innate immune cells to form immune complexes to activate protective cellular functions. Understanding how to increase the formation of IgG-FcR complexes may improve vaccine efficacy\, but variation in IgG and FcR features across individuals suggests that protective mechanisms need to be understood on a personalized basis. There are multiple subclasses of protective IgGs\, each having different concentrations and affinities to FcRs in different individuals. Genetics can also play a role\, with FcR polymorphisms changing FcR binding affinity and IgG1 allotypes changing IgG subclass concentrations. Mechanistic ordinary differential equation (ODE) modeling of this system offers the opportunity to account for these factors on a personalized basis and deconvolve which are most influential and determine how to improve protection universally.\n\n\nWe developed an ODE model of IgG-FcγRIIIa immune complex formation to elucidate how personalized variability in IgG subclass concentration and genetic factors may contribute to complex formation after vaccination. We validated the model with RV144 plasma samples and used it to discover new mechanisms that underpin complex formation. This enabled the identification of genetic and post-translational features that influenced complex formation and suggested the best interventions on a personalized basis. For example\, although IgG3 was associated with protection in RV144 and has the highest affinity to FcγRIIIas\, the model suggested that IgG1 may play a more essential role\, though it also may be highly variable\; due to high IgG1 concentration variability across individuals. The model identified RV144 vaccinees who were predicted to be sensitive\, insensitive\, or negatively affected by increases in HIV-specific IgG1\, which was validated experimentally with the addition of HIV-specific IgG1 monoclonal antibodies to vaccine samples. The model also gave important insights into how to maximize IgG-FcγRIIIa complex formation in different genetic backgrounds. We found that individuals with certain IgG1 allotypes were predicted to be more responsive to vaccine adjuvant strategies that increase antibody affinity (e.g.\, glycosylation modifications) compared to other allotypes\, which were predicted to be more responsive to vaccine boosting regimens that increase IgG1 antibody concentration. Finally\, simulations in mixed-allotype populations suggest that the benefit of boosting IgG1 concentration versus IgG1 affinity may depend upon the frequency of a specific IgG1 allotype (G1m-1\,3) in the population. Overall we believe that this approach represents a valuable tool that will help understand the role of personalized immune mechanisms in response to vaccination and address challenges related to under-represented genetic populations in vaccine trials.\n\nDate: Wednesday\, December 8\, 2021\nTime: 1:00 PM\nZoom: https://umich.zoom.us/j/96971889814\nMeeting ID: 969 7188 9814 Passcode: 663036\nChair: Dr. Kelly Arnold UID:89542-21664062@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/89542 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:biomedical,biomedical engineering,Biosciences,bme,engineering,Life Science,Medicine,Michigan Engineering,Science LOCATION:Off Campus Location CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20211013T145736 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20211208T130000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20211208T134500 SUMMARY:Presentation:Communication and Media Major Information Session DESCRIPTION:Interested in learning about the Communication and Media major? \n\nWe hold monthly info sessions throughout fall and winter semesters for: \n\n*prospective students who are considering Communication and Media as a potential field of study\, or \n*declared students interested in learning about academic and extracurricular opportunities offered by the department UID:88233-21651562@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/88233 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Communication,Media LOCATION:North Quad - Academic Tower, 5th Floor, Room 5450 CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20211206T151737 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20211208T130000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20211208T140000 SUMMARY:Presentation:The Patient-Centered Outcomes Data Repository: Preparing and Depositing Your Dataset DESCRIPTION:The Patient-Centered Outcomes Data Repository (PCODR) is the place to discover\, access\, and analyze clinical research data collected with funding from the Patient-Centered Outcomes Research Institute (PCORI).

Two phenomena that are poorly understood in cross-electric and magnetic field plasma sources\, such as magnetrons and Hall effect thrusters\, are: (i) self-organized structures and (ii) anomalous electron transport across the magnetic field lines. In this talk\, I will present the development of physics-based modeling\, including fluid moment models and high-fidelity kinetic models\, to address these processes. The fluid moment model coupled with improved boundary condition treatments is applied to low-temperature magnetized plasmas. The particle-based kinetic models are used to investigate multidimensional plasma turbulence initiated by a combination of kinetic instabilities in cross-field configurations. I will also introduce data-driven modeling using optimization and state estimation techniques applied to dynamical plasma systems.\n\nAbout the Speaker: \nKen Hara is an Assistant Professor of Aeronautics and Astronautics at Stanford University.

Common limitations can result from a limited sensory range\, occlusions\, or adverse weather conditions\, and hinder the development of both general and safe autonomy in real-world environments. In the pursuit of safe autonomy under imperfect measurements\, an autonomous vehicle must assess the risk to take safe actions\, and actively gather informative data to reduce the uncertainty. This dissertation introduces efficient algorithms for risk assessment and noise removal\, specifically with LiDAR\, to aid the safe navigation of autonomous vehicles. \n\nFirst\, a probabilistic risk assessment algorithm is proposed\, which utilizes scene geometry to quantify the risk imposed by occluded oncoming traffic. Simulations show that the quantified risk can then be used as an objective function of a subsequent planning algorithm to improve both safety and ride comfort at real-world urban intersections. Second\, the efficiency of the aforementioned algorithm is further enhanced by leveraging reachability analysis to constrain its sensory resources to only regions with potential collisions. This leads to an algorithm that not only quantifies the risk more efficiently\, but also localizes the risk-inducing traffic participants in an environment. As a result\, unlike the previous approach\, the vehicle no longer needs to put equal attention to the entire scene and could focus only on essential information in collision avoidance. Lastly\, a real-time de-noising algorithm is proposed to remove noise from LiDAR point clouds corrupted by snow. This reduces uncertainty from adverse weather conditions. The proposed de-noising network outperforms state-of-the-art methods while also running orders of magnitude faster. The de-noised point clouds also show positive impact to off-the-shelf SLAM algorithms\, resulting in maps nearly free of noise while preserving salient information of the scene.\n\nThese algorithms are efficient and make safe autonomy feasible in the near future\, even under imperfect LiDAR measurements.

He delivered a TEDx Talk on job satisfaction\, the keynote speech for the prestigious photography summit WRKSHP\, and was invited to speak to the students at Columbine High School in Littleton\, CO on the topics of social justice and ‘finding your voice.’ He has appeared as a contributing author in several publications and in 2020\, will be publishing his first full length book-a collection of essays called\, “Objects in the Mirror: Thoughts on a Perfect Life from an Imperfect Person.”\n\nWhile Stephen Kellogg may have remained underneath the radar for some in the mainstream\, he has succeeded in building a meaningful career alongside many of the best in the business. He’s sung duets with Sara Bareilles\, Josh Ritter\, Rosanne Cash\, and Pat Monahan of Train and participated in the 2018 “Garden Of Dreams’ concert at the Beacon Theater. His music has found its way onto the Billboard charts and been featured in numerous films and TV shows. Whether performing solo or with a band\, Kellogg’s soul and energy fuel one of the most dynamic shows anywhere. “With beautifully written songs and an engaging personality”\, The Michigan Daily reports\, “Kellogg appears as if he was born on stage\, taking the spotlight and using it to his advantage\, but never letting go of his connection with the audience.” A master storyteller in his prime\, he will spend much of 2020 where he’s always been at home…the road.
