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). She has been Professor and Chair of the Department of Modern Culture and Media at Brown University\, where she worked for almost two decades.

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.

In this talk\, I'll survey the current science of neutrino mass measurement and show how Project 8 is planning a campaign to study an atomic tritium source with 0.05 eV neutrino mass sensitivity.\n UID:86659-21635383@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/86659 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Physics,Science LOCATION:West Hall - 335 CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20210916T160534 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20211206T160000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20211206T170000 SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:LSA/Ross Dual Degree Info Sessions DESCRIPTION:If you are interested in applying for the Multiple Dependent Degree Program (Dual degree) between LSA and the Ross School of Business you must first attend a Dual Degree information session.\n\nAll sessions will be held virtually via Zoom at 4 pm: https://umich.zoom.us/j/93289886804\n\nPresenter-Jeff Harrold\, Coordinator for Academic Standards and Special Populations\, LSA Student Academic Affairs\, jharrold@umich.edu UID:87098-21638703@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/87098 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Business LOCATION:Off Campus Location CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20211130T155302 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20211206T160000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20211206T170000 SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Public Finance: DESCRIPTION:Details to come. \n\n* To join the seminar\, please contact at econ.events@umich.edu UID:89630-21664581@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/89630 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Economics,seminar LOCATION:Off Campus Location CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20211129T085904 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20211206T160000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20211206T173000 SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:STS Speaker. 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).

It can provide opportunities to set up “policy” labs where policies and interventions can be tested without their direct deployment to the public. In this presentation\, I will overview data analytics in healthcare within the paradigm of data science\, integrating all data processes from data acquisition and processing to data translation\, to data modeling and finally decision making. 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. Mello Professor in the H. Milton Stewart School of Industrial and Systems Engineering at the Georgia Institute of Technology. Her research record is quite diverse\, from mathematical statistics to modeling to data analysis to statistical learning\, with recent contributions on drawing principled inferences on healthcare delivery and health policy. She has also been involved in broad impact research activities\; the most noteworthy is the leadership of the Health Analytics initiative (http://www.healthanalytics.gatech.edu). This is a collaborative effort anchored in partnership with a varied network of clinicians\, healthcare providers\, and public health entities. To date\, she has published more than 60 journal articles\, and a collaborative (with Dr. William B. Rouse) book titled Understanding and Managing the Complexity of Healthcare published by MIT Press and single-authored book titled Healthcare System Access: Measurement\, Inference and Intervention published by Wiley. She is the editor for physical sciences\, engineering\, and the environment for the Annals of Applied Statistics Journal. She has reviewed for multiple funding agencies and she has served in multiple workshops and meetings organized by the National Academies.\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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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!

Please review The Ark’s current COVID-related information before attending a show.\n\nSince their arrival on the scene in 2015\, Nefesh Mountain has been hailed as one of today’s formative boundary pushing Bluegrass/Americana bands. 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.

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.

Policies will be updated as circumstances and requirements change in our community. By purchasing a ticket you agree that you and your guests will comply with all laws\, orders\, ordinances\, regulations and health and safety guidance adopted by the State of Michigan\, the County of Washtenaw and The Ark\, including any guidelines in place at the time of the show. Attendees who do not comply will be asked to leave.*\n\nOver the last decade\, New England native Stephen Kellogg has performed more than 2\,000 concerts around the world\, raised thousands of dollars for causes close to his heart\, been named Armed Forces Entertainer of the Year\, and penned singles for artists like platinum selling rock band O.A.R and American Idol winner Nick Fradiani. Stephen’s most recent writing work with legendary guitarist Robert Randolph\, led to a Grammy nomination for “Best Contemporary Blues Record.” He’s also had his songs covered by international major label acts and released ten studio albums of his own yielding hundreds of thousands of ticket and record sales.\n\nA father of four and married to his high school sweetheart\, filmmaker Peter Harding was so moved by the everyman nature of Kellogg’s story that he made a documentary called “Last Man Standing” which went on to become an Amazon exclusive film. In recent years\, Kellogg has added authorship and speaking to his resume as well. 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.

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.

How should financial regulation policy address cryptocurrency in the U.S. going forward?\n\nOur speaker\, Robert (Bob) Dittmar is a Professor of Finance at the Stephen M. Ross School of Business\, the Faculty co-Director of the Ross Fintech Initiative\, and the Faculty Director of the Tozzi Finance Center. \n\nHis research focuses on empirical determinants of financial security prices\, including equities\, fixed income securities\, and derivatives.

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.

By placing the question of gender and sexuality at the heart—and not merely as a subsection—of (ethno-)religious identities and spiritualties\, the speakers queer normative understandings of Jewishness/Judaism and Muslimness/Islam in order to broaden the horizon of Jewish and Muslim coexistence and\, perhaps more importantly\, co-resistance.\n\nKatrina Daly Thompson (she/they) is Professor of African Cultural Studies at the University of Wisconsin-Madison\, where she is also the Director of the Program in African Languages\, and a core faculty member in Second Language Acquisition. She holds additional affiliations in Anthropology\, Gender & Women’s Studies\, Religious Studies\, Folklore\, and the Middle East Studies Program. Her research uses critical ethnography and critical discourse analysis to examine African and Muslim discourse\, with specific projects in Zimbabwe\, Tanzania\, North America\, and online. Her third monograph\, Misfits\, Rebels\, and Queers: An Ethnography of Muslims on the Margins\, is under contract with NYU Press.\n\nRobert Phillips is an Associate Professor of Anthropology and Associate Director of the Jewish Studies Program at Ball State University. He lectures on ethnographic methods and the anthropology of religion and technology with much of his empirical research conducted in India and Singapore. Most recently\, Phillips has published Virtual Activism: Sexuality\, the Internet\, and a Social Movement in Singapore (University of Toronto Press\, 2020). Currently\, Phillips is looking at how queer and Jewish individuals are embracing alternative models in the healing of individual and collective trauma.\n\nDr. Edwige Crucifix is a scholar of Modern and Contemporary Francophone literature\, specializing in gender studies and postcolonial theory. Her current book project explores mechanisms of identity construction in colonial society in the works of French and North African women. Her research and teaching stems from an interdisciplinary interest in modes of cultural resistance\, explored in previous publications dedicated to modernist aesthetics\, nineteenth-century bourgeois taste\, and inter-war Jewish identity. \n\nDr. Shanon Shah conducts research on minority religions and alternative spiritualities at the Information Network Focus on Religious Movements (Inform)\, based at King's College London\, and is Tutor in Interfaith Relations at the University of London's Divinity programme. He is also the Director of Faith for the Climate\, a faith-inspired network of climate justice activists\, and an editor at Critical Muslim\, the flagship quarterly publication of the Muslim Institute (a London-based educational fellowship). \n\nAdi Saleem Bharat is an LSA Collegiate Fellow and\, from Fall 2022\, an assistant professor in the Department of Romance Languages and Literatures at the University of Michigan. He is also an Honorary Research Fellow at the University of Manchester's Center for Jewish Studies. His research examines the intersection of race\, religion\, gender\, and sexuality in contemporary France\, with a focus on Jews and Muslims. He is currently working on a manuscript tentatively titled Beyond Jewish-Muslim Relations\, which examines and challenges the construction of a polarized\, oppositional category of \"Jewish-Muslim relations\" in media and political discourse in France.

Thurnau Professor\, Women's and Gender Studies\; Political Science\, Sociology\, and Health Management & Policy (by courtesy)\n\nThe racial reckoning during 2020 sparked renewed energy to address pervasive structural racism and the resulting disparate inequities and injustices impacting minoritized communities and communities of color in the US. Institutions of higher education across the nation have expressed commitments to address racism in their organizations. Similarly\, many institutions across the country have sought to focus new efforts to end harassment based on sex\, sexuality\, and gender\, yet these efforts have often operated separately from the fight to address systemic racism. \n\nAt the College of Literature\, Science & the Arts (LSA) at the University of Michigan\, working groups have produced both an LSA Task Force on Anti-Racism and Racial Equality report and a Preventing Sexual Harassment report in recent months. Additionally\, the university commissioned reports on high-profile cases of sexual misconduct (Philbert and Anderson) and created campus initiatives in response to national conversations around anti-racism.\n\nThis expert panel will help us to understand how systems of racism and sexism support and maintain each other\, discuss recent efforts to grapple with these issues at Michigan\, frame them within a broader theoretical and political context and then provide suggestions on how to move from intention to action and how to enact structural change that is transformational and sustainable.\n\nCosponsored by: The Institute for Research on Women and Gender\, the Initiative on Gender Based Violence and Sexual Harassment at IRWG\, the Women’s & Gender Studies Department\, and the National Center for Institutional Diversity’s Anti-Racism Collaborative\n\nThis webinar will be recorded.

Likewise\, settler cultural studies compartmentalize indigenous peoples and practices as outside of the present time and space. This panel discussion taps into growing movements around the discussion of indigenous technologies and indigenous futures (itself a nod to Afrofuturism)\, taking a more expansive view of the holistic relationship between people and technologies. The panelists are coders\, artists\, and theorists who investigate not only the history but also the present and future of indigenous technologies\, as well as the language and methodologies used to study them.\n\nPresenters include:\n\n- Amelia Winger-Bearskin\, Banks Preeminence Chair and Associate Professor of Artificial Intelligence and the Arts\, University of Florida\, Digital Worlds Institute\;\n- Ron Eglash\, Professor of Information\, School of Information and Professor of Art and Design\, Penny W Stamps School of Art and Design\, University of Michigan\;\n- Jason Edward Lewis\, University Research Chair in Computational Media and the Indigenous Future Imaginary at Concordia University\;\n\nModerated by DSI Executive Director Marisa Olson\, with opening remarks from the Consulate General of Canada.\n\nLive Captioning will be provided.\n\nRegister here: https://bit.ly/3rvri5H UID:89388-21664061@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/89388 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:digital,Digital Culture,Digital Cultures,digital humanities,Digital Media,Digital Studies,Digital Studies Institute,digital technology,digitalization,digitization,Diversity,Diversity Equity and Inclusion,Interdisciplinary LOCATION:Off Campus Location CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20211027T150035 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20211209T153000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20211209T170000 SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Astronomy Colloquium Series Presents: DESCRIPTION:Title and abstract coming soon UID:88721-21656970@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/88721 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:astronomy,astrophysics,physics LOCATION:Off Campus Location CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20211208T113318 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20211209T160000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20211209T170000 SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:\"EPICode\, a multiplexed epitope barcoding strategy that enables dynamic cellular phenotypic screens\" DESCRIPTION:Pooled genetic libraries have improved screening throughput for mapping genotypes to phenotypes. However\, selectable phenotypes are limiting\, restricting screening to outcomes with a low spatiotemporal resolution. Here\, we integrated live-cell imaging with pooled library-based screening. To enable intracellular multiplexing\, we developed a method\, called EPICode (Epitope-Phenotype Immunofluorescence barCode)\, that uses a combination of short epitopes to facilitate optical screening. By using the subcellular localization of the barcode as an additional channel\, our method exponentially increases multiplexing capacity. Thus\, after using live-cell microscopy to characterize a phenotype of interest\, subjected to sequential stimulatory/inhibitory manipulations\, the genotype of each cell in the population can be identified. To demonstrate applicability\, we developed a live-cell PKA kinase translocation reporter with improved sensitivity and specificity. The use of epitopes as fluorescent barcodes introduces a scalable strategy for high-throughput screening broadly applicable to protein engineering and drug discovery settings where image-based phenotyping is desired.\nDetails:\nDATE: Thursday\, December 9\, 2021\nTIME: 4:00-5:00 pm\nZOOM LINK: https://umich.zoom.us/j/97723483179 UID:89887-21666282@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/89887 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:biomedical,biomedical engineering,engineering,Life Science,Medicine,Michigan Engineering,Science LOCATION:Off Campus Location CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20211224T123031 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20211209T160000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20211209T164500 SUMMARY:Careers / Jobs:How to Ace the Acquisition Job Interview DESCRIPTION:When it comes to interviewing for a job in the acquisition career field\, there are things that will help you stand out as a candidate.

However\, due to the exponential scaling of many-body simulations\, one can only obtain approximate solutions to the electronic Schrodinger equation. Although\, in principle one can increase the sophistication of an approximation arbitrarily until a desired accuracy is reached\, more sophisticated calculations rapidly become intractable for even the largest supercomputers. Quantum computers provide a promising route to bypass these limitations in molecular simulation. However\, current and near term quantum devices suffer from environmental noise and gate errors\, thus limiting the calculations able to be achieved. In this talk\, I will discuss basic ideas concerning the simulation of molecules on quantum devices\, and describe two different algorithmic directions our collaborative team has recently devised for trying to extract the most computational work out of noisy devices.\n\n UID:86569-21634906@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/86569 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Physics,Science LOCATION:West Hall - 335 CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20210817T155615 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20211209T160000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20211209T170000 SUMMARY:Livestream / Virtual:International Studies Virtual Information Session and Q&A DESCRIPTION:Please note: This information session will be held virtually ET through Zoom.

This often becomes more challenging depending on our environment and identities. According to the National Alliance on Mental Illness\, one in four college students have a diagnosable mental illness\, with depression being the most prevalent. Furthermore\, the prevalence and severity of symptoms is dependent on education\, race\, gender\, sexual orientation\, and gender identity. A University of Michigan study showed that half of all graduate students are experiencing psychological distress\, with a higher prevalence of mental-health problems than the general highly educated population. Black men experience worse mental health outcomes than any other racial group of men and are also less likely to seek mental health services. Members of the LGBTQI are two to four times more likely to experience a mental health issue. As we all have many identities that contribute to how we perceive and navigate mental health\, this mental health mini-series serves to highlight research and foster constructive conversations around identifying signs of mental illness\, understanding how our identities impact our mental health\, and maintaining mental well-being.\nSpeaker: Lisa Kaler is an expert in undergraduate and graduate student mental health and well-being. She focuses on how institutions can promote positive mental health through systemic change. Kaler uses a critical lens to understand how mental health issues intersect with social justice.\nPanelists: Nneoma Edokobi\, Medical Student\, Virginia Tech Carilion School of Medicine\; Chiamaka U.

With the aim to heighten awareness of the gendered history of research on networks\, all ten authors thus placed women in the center of their analyses. The result paints a heterogeneous picture which preempts the determination of one simple network pattern or a uniform type of networks particular to “women.” Rather the diversity indicate that not gender alone but many other factors play into the individual’s form of participation in networks. In the presentation\, I take this specific result of the volume further by making a comparison of the involvement in networks by a husband and a wife: Rai Shizu and Rai Shunsui. I do with the help of the visualization tools of the Japan Biographical Database.\n \n \n Bettina Gramlich-Oka is Professor of Japanese History at the Faculty of Liberal Arts\, Sophia University.

Shepard’s tragic death ultimately led to the creation of the Matthew Shepard Foundation and provided a catalyst for legislation that expanded the definition of a hate crime to include sexual orientation. In 2009\, Congress passed the Matthew Shepard and James Byrd Jr. Hate Crimes Prevention Act. Composer Craig Hella Johnson had a profoundly personal reaction to both the murder and its resonance. The Shepard family and Foundation engaged with Johnson to create the Grammy-nominated oratorio\, Considering Matthew Shepard\, which draws from fragments of Shepard’s personal diary. \nIn November 2021\, the U-M School of Music\, Theatre &\; Dance and UMMA created a live performance film of the U-M Chamber Choir performing the oratorio under the direction of award winning conductor Eugene Rogers\, acclaimed stage director Matt Kunkel\, and Emmy-award winning film producer Bob Berg\, with pianist Scott VanOrnum\, production designer Harrison Hoffert\, and narrated by Priscilla Lindsay. The live performance was presented as part of the UMMA exhibition Oh honey...A queer reading of the collection and the 50th anniversary of the U-M Spectrum Center. \nThis Penny Stamps Speaker Series event offers a public screening of the performance film\, followed by a conversation with Rogers and Johnson about the work.\n UID:88638-21656327@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/88638 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Art LOCATION:Off Campus Location CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20211210T001552 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20211209T200000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20211209T213000 SUMMARY:Presentation:Considering Matthew Shepard:  Live performance film followed by a conversation with Eugene Rogers and Craig Hella Johnson DESCRIPTION:Click here to register: https://stamps.umich.edu/stamps.\n \nCon­sid­er­ing Matthew Shep­ard is an evoca­tive and com­pas­sion­ate musi­cal response to the bru­tal mur­der of Matthew Shep­ard in 1998\, one of America’s most noto­ri­ous anti-gay hate crimes.

The Shep­ard fam­ily and Foun­da­tion engaged with John­son to cre­ate the Grammy-nom­i­nated ora­to­rio\, Con­sid­er­ing Matthew Shep­ard\, which draws from frag­ments of Shepard’s per­sonal diary. \n \nIn Novem­ber 2021\, the U‑M School of Music\, The­atre & Dance and UMMA cre­ated a live per­for­mance film of the U‑M Cham­ber Choir per­form­ing the ora­to­rio under the direc­tion of award win­ning con­duc­tor Eugene Rogers\, acclaimed stage direc­tor Matt Kunkel\, and Emmy-award win­ning film pro­ducer Bob Berg\, with pianist Scott VanOr­num\, pro­duc­tion designer Har­ri­son Hof­fert\, and nar­rated by Priscilla Lind­say. The live per­for­mance was pre­sented as part of the UMMA exhi­bi­tion Oh honey…A queer read­ing of the col­lec­tion and the 50th anniver­sary of the U‑M Spec­trum Center. \n \nThis Penny Stamps Speaker Series event offers a pub­lic screen­ing of the per­for­mance film\, fol­lowed by a con­ver­sa­tion with Rogers and John­son about the work.\n \nDetroit Public Television will also screen the film on Saturday\, December 11\, at 4:30 p.m. Visit www.dptv.org for more information.\n \n     \n \n \n\nPresented by UMMA\, the U-M School of Music\, Theatre & Dance\, and the Penny Stamps Distinguished Speaker Series.

Davidson DESCRIPTION:Nearly 90% of adults in the US will develop dental caries needing treatment with dental restorations within their lifetimes. An increasing number of restorations are done using composite rather than amalgams. Dental composites have some benefits\, but the longevity of these restorations is shorter (5 to 7 years) than amalgams (10+ years). The leading cause of dental restoration failure is development of secondary caries. Secondary caries is decay at or near the margins of dental restorations that occurs when bacteria or acid infiltrate the interface and cause demineralization. A reduction in infiltration would prevent the development of secondary caries. The focus of this dissertation is the development of a method for improving the integrity of the interface using peptide engineering. It was hypothesized that a mineral binding peptide identified via phage display for affinity to apatite could be modified to A) chemically incorporate with dental composites during polymerization and increase bond strength and B) act as an anchor for a mineralization promoting peptide to increase remineralization at the interface. \n \n\nFirst\, this thesis describes the characterization of VTKHLNQISQSY (VTK) peptide and phosphorylated variants (pVTK) for their affinity to dentin and enamel and the increase in adhesion strength at the nano-scale. pVTK showed strong affinity to dentin and enamel\, and both VTK and pVTK exhibited strong adhesion to dentin and enamel at the nanoscale under dry and wet conditions. Binding at the nanomolecular level translated to modest shear bond strength (SBS) increases at the interface when pVTK (7.4%) was modified with a cysteine that incorporated with the methacrylate-based bonding agent and composite during polymerization. Using a competitive risk model incorporating failure mode and SBS\, a small increase in bond strength (VTK: 3%\; pVTK: 10%) was observed. \n \n\nThe second modification to VTK was the addition of a remineralization domain using 8DSS\, a known remineralization peptide consisting of 8 repeats of Asp-Ser-Ser (DSS). The dual-functioning peptide (VTK-8DSS) was applied to in vitro cross sections of dentin and enamel and an in situ model of class V dental restorations. Mineral deposition and quality were assessed over 7 days in remineralization solution. VTK-8DSS increased the mineral quality (recovering 75% of young’s modulus and hardness compared to 50% of 8DSS control) determined using nanoindentation over the 7 day time course of the study. \n \n\nThese modifications were also analyzed under challenging conditions for their protective effect to the interface. VTK and pVTK doped composites were exposed to thermal cycling and had a 43% and 49% reduction in microleakage as measured by silver nitrate penetration using micro CT. Cross sections and dental restorations were used to assess the function of VTK-8DSS in artificial saliva containing proteins that competitively bind to dentin and enamel and an acidic cycling model where samples were exposed to acid every day in addition to remineralization solution. VTK-8DSS in both artificial saliva and acidic cycling models showed a slight increase in mineral deposition (95% and 95% recovery) compared to 8DSS (80% and 50% respectively) and a large increase mineral quality (70% vs 10% and 60% vs 30%).\n \n\nTaken together\, the data in this dissertation demonstrates the ability to engineer interfacial surfaces using peptides derived for their affinity to specific tissues. This system could be applied more broadly to improve the interactions or integration of any number of biomaterials that directly interface with native tissue. \n \n\nDate: Friday\, December 10\, 2021\nTime: 8:00 AM EST\nZoom: https://umich.zoom.us/j/97816028147 (Zoom link requires prior registration)\nChair: Dr. David Kohn UID:89701-21665017@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/89701 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:biomedical,biomedical engineering,bme,engineering,Medicine,Michigan Engineering LOCATION:Off Campus Location CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20211104T150425 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20211210T090000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20211210T170000 SUMMARY:Exhibition:Buying Home\, Selling America: the House Catalog\, 1906-1966 DESCRIPTION:Buying Home\, Selling America: the House Catalog\, 1906-1966 brings to light the collection of house catalogs in the Art\, Architecture & Engineering Library’s Special Collections.

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.

Employers may thus still want to ask about a job applicant's criminal record later in the hiring process or make inaccurate judgments based on an applicant's demographic characteristics. In this paper\, we use a field experiment conducted in partnership with a nationwide staffing platform to test policies that more directly address the reasons that employers may conduct criminal background checks. The experiment asked hiring managers at nearly a thousand U.S. businesses to make actual hiring decisions under different randomized conditions. We find that 39% of businesses in our sample are willing to work with individuals with a criminal record at baseline\, which rises to over 50% when businesses are offered crime and safety insurance\, a single performance review\, a background check covering just the past year\, or objective information on the productivity of these individuals.

Defense: Christopher D. Davidson DESCRIPTION:The ability of cells to communicate and coordinate their activity is crucial to the development and homeostatic function of all tissues. In addition to the well-established means of biochemically mediated signaling\, a more recent body of evidence has indicated that cells can also communicate via cell-generated forces transmitted to neighboring cells through the extracellular matrix (ECM). One setting in which a deeper understanding of mechanical intercellular communication (MIC) would be extremely valuable is in vasculogenesis\, or the de novo formation of a microvascular network. This dynamic process involves the assembly and organization of individual endothelial progenitor cells into an interconnected network of capillaries\, thus requiring cellular communication and coordination over large spatial scales. If fully understood and harnessed\, vasculogenic assembly presents a promising approach to vascularizing engineered tissue constructs for regenerative medicine applications. We hypothesize physical properties of the ECM are critical to MIC as the matrix context defines not only the generation of cell forces but also force transmission through the matrix to nearby cells. Thus\, the focus of this dissertation is to study cell force propagation and MIC between endothelial cells (ECs) in controllable synthetic ECMs towards the informed design of biomaterials that drive rapid self-assembly of functional microvascular networks.\n\n \n\nFirst\, this thesis explores how physical attributes of the ECM regulate the assembly of ECs into interconnected multicellular networks. To mimic the fibrous microenvironments where neovascularization typically occurs in the body\, we developed a novel model of the EC network formation assay utilizing 2.5D matrices of electrospun synthetic dextran methacrylate (DexMA) polymeric fibers. Our results revealed that active cell-mediated matrix deformations and fiber recruitment through actomyosin force generation occurs concurrently with the formation and stabilization of multicellular EC networks.\n\n \n\nNext\, this thesis describes the development and characterization of a new material system composed of electrospun dextran vinyl sulfone (DexVS) polymeric fibers that possess longer-term mechanical stability in culture as compared to DexMA matrices. These matrices were utilized for two major objectives: 1) investigating the role of matrix mechanics on the activation of fibroblasts into myofibroblasts\, a key component of wound healing and the fibrotic progression\, and 2) exploring the impact of nonlinear matrix mechanical properties on vasculogenic assembly by imbuing fibers with crimped microstructure.\n\n \n\nLastly\, this thesis describes the mechanism of MIC between individual ECs during vasculogenic assembly. By combining electrospun DexMA fiber matrices with a microfabrication-based cell-patterning method\, we investigated EC force-mediated matrix displacements and MIC as a function of matrix stiffness and identified the critical cellular machinery required for ECs to sense and respond to mechanical signals emanating from neighboring cells. We then sought to harness these observations in more translatable 3D hydrogel constructs by using a composite approach where fibrin hydrogels were reinforced with electrospun DexVS fiber segments. While traditional approaches to prevascularize 3D hydrogels require long-term co-cultures of ECs and support stromal cells\, our work demonstrated that mechanical cues from synthetic fibers enable ECs alone to rapidly self-assemble into networks of lumenized capillary-like structures.\n\n \n\nOverall\, the work presented in this dissertation integrates biomaterials\, tissue engineering\, and microfabrication approaches to investigate the mechanobiology of how cell forces regulate intercellular communication during vasculogenic assembly. The results presented here are critical to the design of biomaterials that promote robust capillary network assembly for applications in tissue engineering and regenerative medicine.\n\n \n\nDate: Friday\, December 10\, 2021\n\nTime: 1:00 PM EST\n\nZoom: https://umich.zoom.us/meeting/register/tJAoceuhqD0rHdwL8duV6QwOcYjLXl14kysD (Zoom link requires prior registration)\n\nChair: Dr. Brendon Baker UID:89668-21664759@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/89668 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:biomedical,biomedical engineering,engineering,Medicine,Michigan Engineering,Science LOCATION:Off Campus Location CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20211210T181551 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20211210T130000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20211210T150000 SUMMARY:Other:Study and Sketch: Drawing and Coloring with the Arts Initiative DESCRIPTION:.\n \nLocal artists have created a Drawing Guide that offers a series of prompts and drawing exercises to help you to process your emotional journey throughout the past 18 months using creative\, artistic expression.

Moreover\, interactions in the workplace (be they formal or informal) shape employees’ identities\, as they reveal the extent to which identities are accepted or contested (Sanchez-Hucles & Davis\, 2010). Sport organizational cultures\, aptly characterized as inequality regimes (Acker\, 2006) established at the axes of race and gender (and other ascriptions)\, create habitus (Bourdieu\, 1984) of inclusion and exclusion that uniquely impact the identity and the leadership opportunities and experiences of Black women employed therein. The climate of many sport organizational cultures often discourages Black women from ‘bringing’ their authentic Blackness into the workplace\, requiring them to engage in a number social-psychological strategies to insulate and protect the essence of their ‘self’ at work. This presentation is an excerpt of a larger project on Black women in sport leadership (Simpkins & Armstrong\, In Progress). It will discuss race as aesthetic labor (Williams & Connell\, 2010)\, and it will illustrate the manner in which Black women sport leaders navigate their Blackness in the workplace as: (a) personal agency\, and (b) embodied racial identity. It will conclude by discussing the need for inclusive organizational cultures and workplaces free of anti-Black racism where Black women may thrive in the fullness of their Blackness as leaders.

Tendencies for negation to appear early in the sentence have been observed by scholars working in typology\, language contact\, and language acquisition. However\, it remains uncertain if it is necessary to postulate and motivate an independent NegFirst preference\, or whether the observed tendencies can broadly be explained by other cognitive and linguistic biases which may play a role in basic constituent order patterns\, grammaticalization\, and language acquisition. In the current study\, I use an Artificial Language Learning paradigm to test the existence of a behavioral bias consistent with NegFirst in the behavior of English speakers\, and incorporate a dyadic director-matcher task in order to investigate a hypothesis that the NegFirst principle is driven by communicative factors. This study contributes to a growing body of research which aims to corroborate typological tendencies with behavioral evidence at the individual level. In this talk\, I will share preliminary results which suggest that English-speaking learners do show behavior consistent with a NegFirst bias\, and discuss plans to extend this research to Japanese speakers in the future.\n \nJustin Craft:\nThe Effect of Listener Experience and Social Expectation on Illusory Percepts\n\nABSTRACT\nPerceptual recalibration research has been central in demonstrating that listeners readily adapt to accented speech as listeners gain experience with accented speakers. Likewise\, the sociophonetic literature has demonstrated that listener expectations and experience established through visual or contextual means also appears to drive listener percepts and inferentially aid in efforts to resolve socially conditioned phonetic ambiguities. In this talk\, I'll present preliminary results from one of my dissertation experiments that utilizes McGurk stimuli to probe whether these expectational and recalibratory effects persist in illusory percepts. By breaking the audio-visual integration characteristic of typical speech processing\, the use of illusory stimuli targets whether the percepts listeners experience\, when stripped of socially meaningful acoustic cues\, still show evidence of sociophonetic knowledge that otherwise reflects the variation found in congruent veridical audio-visual signals in the world. \n\nIf there is anything we can do to make this event accessible to you\, please contact lingadmin@umich.edu.

This early period begins at the end of a global Spanish Flu pandemic and World War I and ends during the height of the Great Depression. This period saw the first undergraduate social work curriculum launched on the Ann Arbor campus and ends as the program moves to Detroit where the social work program remained until 1950.\n\nAmong the major themes is the struggle for racial justice\, including challenging segregation on the University of Michigan campus. Early social work students were involved in an inter-racial alliance group\, the Negro-Caucasian Club\, that started in 1925 and the efforts of those students are depicted in the play.\n\nThis production is Directed by Aria Davis. Produced by Rich Tolman (SSW) and Kate Mendeloff (RC Drama). The cast includes faculty and students from the School of Social Work community.

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.

Shepard’s tragic death ulti­mately led to the cre­ation of the Matthew Shep­ard Foun­da­tion and pro­vided a cat­a­lyst for leg­is­la­tion that expanded the def­i­n­i­tion of a hate crime to include sex­ual ori­en­ta­tion. In 2009\, Con­gress passed the Matthew Shep­ard and James Byrd Jr. Hate Crimes Pre­ven­tion Act. Com­poser Craig Hella John­son had a pro­foundly per­sonal reac­tion to both the mur­der and its res­o­nance. The Shep­ard fam­ily and Foun­da­tion engaged with John­son to cre­ate the Grammy-nom­i­nated ora­to­rio\, Con­sid­er­ing Matthew Shep­ard\, which draws from frag­ments of Shepard’s per­sonal diary. \n \nIn Novem­ber 2021\, the U‑M School of Music\, The­atre & Dance and UMMA cre­ated filmed a live performance of the U‑M Cham­ber Choir per­form­ing the ora­to­rio under the direc­tion of award win­ning con­duc­tor Eugene Rogers\, acclaimed stage direc­tor Matt Kunkel\, and Emmy-award win­ning film pro­ducer Bob Berg\, with pianist Scott VanOr­num\, pro­duc­tion designer Har­ri­son Hof­fert\, and nar­rated by Priscilla Lind­say. The live per­for­mance was pre­sented as part of the UMMA exhi­bi­tion Oh honey…A queer read­ing of the col­lec­tion and the 50th anniver­sary of the U‑M Spec­trum Center. \n \nTune in to Detroit Public Television channel 56 to see the film of the performance.

This early period begins at the end of a global Spanish Flu pandemic and World War I and ends during the height of the Great Depression. This period saw the first undergraduate social work curriculum launched on the Ann Arbor campus and ends as the program moves to Detroit where the social work program remained until 1950.\n\nAmong the major themes is the struggle for racial justice\, including challenging segregation on the University of Michigan campus. Early social work students were involved in an inter-racial alliance group\, the Negro-Caucasian Club\, that started in 1925 and the efforts of those students are depicted in the play.\n\nThis production is Directed by Aria Davis. Produced by Rich Tolman (SSW) and Kate Mendeloff (RC Drama). The cast includes faculty and students from the School of Social Work community.
