Modernist Glass from the Polish Past DESCRIPTION:The glass in this rare collection represents the work of renowned Polish glass artists and designers created between 1960 and 1980. Known as Polskie szkło artystyczne (Polish art glass)\, the works were produced in glass factories in southern Poland and are a feature of many homes throughout Central Europe. The glass masters were trained in schools of art and design and many achieved international fame during their lifetimes. \n\nThe collectors\, Endi Poskovic and his wife Julie Anne Visco\, began acquiring the glass in 2015-16 while Endi was a Fulbright Scholar and Visiting Professor at the Jan Matejko Academy of Fine Arts in Kraków. Scouring flea markets\, antique shops\, and websites\, they continue to acquire pieces and build the collection to this day. We are grateful to them for making this remarkable exhibit possible at CCPS and WCEE.\n\nOrganized by the Copernicus Center for Polish Studies\, this exhibition is co-sponsored by the Penny W. Stamps School of Art & Design and Weiser Center for Europe and Eurasia.\n\nLearn more about the exhibition and the artists at https://myumi.ch/8eVrM\n\nThe exhibit opens on September 15\, 2023 in 1010 Weiser Hall\, 500 Church Street\, Ann Arbor.

They received a Bachelor of Fine Arts degree from Wayne State University and an MFA at the School of the Art Institute of Chicago (SAIC). Nour Ballout’s practice grapples with the ways looking can manifest as both resistance and violence while negotiating the tensions among visibility\, documentation and surveillance. Through photography\, archive and space making\, their work interrogates the ways the naturalization of structures of power manifest within bodies\, built environments\, and communities.\n\nNour currently serves on the Detroit Institute of Arts contemporary arts advisory group. They are the recipient of many awards\, fellowships and grants that include the 2023 Modern Ancient Brown Fellowship\, the ICI EXPO Curatorial Research Fellowship\, the 2022 Michigan Arts and Cultural Council Grant\, the 2021 Transforming Power Fund Grant\, the 2019 Knight Arts Challenge Award\, Kresge Arts in Detroit Gilda Award and many more. Nour has exhibited their work nationally and participated in several artist residencies including the Ghana Think Tank in Detroit\, Flux Factory in New York and plans to participate in the Kala Arts Institute Residency in 2023.

Through collaborations with her immediate community\, and also using herself as a subject\, Lee draws inspiration from the quotidian\, creating offbeat images that aim to preserve this moment in time\, (re) examine memories (especially those clouded by confusion) all the while asking questions around identity and existence.\n\nLee holds a BFA from the Maurice Kanbar Institute of Film and Television at New York University’s Tisch School of the Arts. She is currently pursuing her MFA in Photography at School of the Art Institute of Chicago.\n\nIn Lee’s photographic exploration\, she investigates the profound connection between places and structures and the echoes of trauma that inhabit them. “Holding Places” is an exhibition that immerses viewers into a visual narrative\, inviting them to witness the power of space as holders and conduits for personal memory.\n\nBy reconstructing these places by hand in model scale and rendering them not as they were\, but how she experienced them\, she is able to navigate intimate details and hidden narratives that exist within them. The process of crafting these miniatures becomes a meditative contemplation\, giving Lee time to sit and reflect on these past events.\n\nThrough Lee’s lens\, they capture the visual manifestations of the ghosts of the past. The photographs offer glimpses into spaces where anguish\, conflict and distress have left their imprints\, sometimes visible\, sometimes buried beneath layers of time (and self preservation).

Unlike previous U-M Library exhibits that focused on the artist at work\, this display shows him in informal and familial environments\, revealing a depth and complexity of character that are often overshadowed by his fame and professional achievements. The photographs and documents displayed showcase a variety of emotional tones — warmth\, humor\, tenderness\, and passion. Candid and relaxed more than posed\, they are similar to most people's pictures in old family albums.\n\nCulled from the Orson Welles-Beatrice Welles materials that are part of the Mavericks & Makers collection within the U-M Library’s Special Collections Research Center\, each photo or letter tells a story of a connection Welles held dearly. The materials included are from two periods: the late 1920s and early 1930s\, when Welles was a teenager\, and the mid-1950s to early 1960s\, during the early years of his marriage to his third wife\, Paola Mori. \n\nIt should be noted that Welles’s personal life was messy at best. Other collections housed at U-M that include personal materials related to Welles document his first and second marriages\, including the Welles-Feder Collection and the Wilson-Welles Collection. The items on display here were saved by his third and final child\, Beatrice Welles\, and reflect her childhood memories of her parents.\n\nThe exhibit is available during Hatcher Gallery Exhibit Room hours (https://umlib.us/hatchergalleryexhibits).

In this seminar\, Bill Currie will present the development and applications of the Mondrian model\, which was designed to link across four levels of organization in coastal wetlands: individual plant physiology\, plant population dynamics\, plant community shifts including invasive species\, and ecosystem biogeochemistry including C\, N and P cycling. Mondrian is an individual-based model in which spatially-explicit plant competition for resources causes emergent population and community dynamics\, which respond to wetland N and P inflows while also driving ecosystem N and P cycling including nutrient retention. At the same time it integrates the effects of dynamic water levels\, hydroperiod\, and water residence time on both plant survival and ecosystem biogeochemistry\, including decomposition\, C storage\, nitrification and denitrification. It has been used to study clonal plant competition broadly from a basic-science perspective as well as the integrated effects of water level and nutrient inflows on the joint outcomes of wetland C budgets and the success or failure of plant invasions in Great Lakes coastal wetlands. The model has also been used in an adaptive management framework to simulate the outcomes of management practices including burning\, mowing\, and herbicide to control invasive cattails and Phragmites. The Mondrian model was designed to be highly flexible for use by different research groups for a range of research questions and is available open-source.

In recent work\, we study\, using knowledge graphs\, sentiment analysis\, and natural language processing\, how online hate speech and public sentiment evolves for different marginalized groups\, and how this leads to hate crimes and reactions that is different between e.g. Black Vs LGBTQ+ groups.\n\nNext\, in order to investigate this more rigorously I introduce a new mathematical model of opinion dynamics\, which (unlike previous models) captures phenomena such as temporary consensus (eventually falling out of consensus) and opinion crossing. Human behaviour (e.g. masking vs not masking) is also tied to health outcomes and disease spreading. \n\nI will use these ideas and heterogeneous behaviour\, symptoms\, and genes\, to present a new method in multilayer networks for early and personalized prediction of disease subtype with remarkable success in prediction of Parkinson's subtype five years in advance.\n\nHuman opinions evolve\, and lead to changing alliances\, behavior\, and outcomes. Higher order networks such as simplicial complexes (where more than two people interact simultaneously) are particularly useful in capturing properties of higher-order human interaction effectively. I will present theory of simplicial complexes and then some applications on (a) studying strategies and influence in passing of bills in Congress\, and (b) the privilege of structural position in coauthorship network on hiring using graph neural networks. \n\nLastly\, I will discuss topics in explainable machine learning\, especially for prediction on graphs. Machine learning is tremendously successful but often a black box. Here\, I will present some recent rigorous results on understanding what precisely are the weight dynamics in the graph neural network during 'learning'\, where we show how properties of the graph (the spectrum of the Laplacian) plays a role in training. I will also briefly discuss work on more 'biological' ways of training machine learning models of cognition. \n\n*Bio: *\nSanjukta's research interests are multidisciplinary\, with the goal of developing tools to answer questions about real world systems. She received her PhD from the University of Maryland where she was also a fellow of the Combine (Computational and Mathematics in Biological Networks) program.

Of the myriad of lipids that accumulate\, sphingolipids such as ceramides may be among the most deleterious\, as they alter metabolic programs and induce apoptosis and fibrosis. \n\nIn humans\, serum ceramides are strong biomarkers of diabetes and major adverse cardiac events\, and clinics have started measuring circulating ceramides as markers of disease risk. In rodents\, inhibiting ceramide biosynthesis ameliorates diabetes\, steatohepatitis\, and heart failure. Summers will discuss the therapeutic potential of a new approach to inactivate ceramides and combat these metabolic pathologies.\n\nAbout the speaker:\nScott Summers\, Ph.D.\nDistinguished Professor and Chair\, Department of Nutrition and Integrative Physiology\; Co-Director\, Diabetes and Metabolism Research Center\, University of Utah\n\nScott Summers\, Ph.D.\, has been a leading voice advancing the idea that ceramides\, which are products of fat and protein metabolism that accrue in dyslipidemia or inflammation\, contribute to the pathogenesis of diabetes and its complications in the heart\, liver\, gut and kidney. Although the idea was initially controversial\, the role of ceramides as drivers of pathology is now widely accepted and clinics have started measuring ceramides as a means of assessing disease risk. In 2015\, he co-founded Centaurus Therapeutics\, a USA-based biotechnology company that is developing new ceramide-lowering therapeutics to combat the metabolic underpinnings of metabolic disorders. \n\nPrior to joining the University of Utah\, Summers held faculty appointments at Duke University and its affiliated medical school in Singapore (Duke-NUS)\; the Baker Heart and Diabetes Institute in Melbourne\, Australia\; and Colorado State University in Fort Collins\, Colorado. He completed his B.S. at Indiana University\, his Ph.D. at Southern Illinois University\, and his postdoctoral training at the University of Pennsylvania.

We report on the implementation of a two-part series of nudges designed to improve students’ engagement with and performance on mastery-based assignments in high-enrollment\, introductory undergraduate courses. Students received one or two email-based nudges for each assignment\, providing both decision information and decision assistance. Delivered via email by a digital coaching system that provides tailored support to students\, we evaluated the effectiveness of viewing versus not viewing these personalized nudges across introductory courses in mathematics\, computer science\, and engineering over five terms at a large\, research-intensive university. We find that viewing versus not viewing nudges is significantly related to improved outcomes. Viewing the first of the two-part nudge series is associated with a 3% increase in scores on average. Importantly\, we found a significant interaction with prior academic performance such that students with the lowest average academic performance across all courses are predicted to benefit the most—up to 9%—from nudging.

In this talk\, I will present my work on imaging through turbid tissues with improved resolution and sensitivity using interferometric techniques and computational algorithms. I will first discuss how quantitative phase imaging (QPI) improves contrast and sensitivity in three-dimensional cellular structures. I will show how the phase information provided by QPI is used to retrieve the intrinsic properties of biological samples. Then\, I will present a label-free imaging method using deep learning to achieve confocal-level resolution\, sensitivity\, and chemical specificity non-destructively on unlabeled specimens. Next\, I will present an ongoing project on confocal gradient light interference microscopy for in vivo mouse brain imaging with a comparison to multiphoton imaging. The talk will conclude with a discussion of my future research direction on pushing the limits of label-free optical imaging in deep living systems and artificial intelligence-assisted applications.\n\nBio:\nDr. Xi Chen is a postdoctoral associate and K99/R00 awardee at Cornell University in Prof. Chris Xu’s group. She previously had postdoctoral training at the University of Illinois at Urbana Champaign (UIUC) in Prof. Gabriel Popescu’s Quantitative Light Imaging lab. She received her Ph.D. in Physics in 2019 under the supervision of Prof. Olga Korotkova at the University of Miami. Her research experiences include developing label-free imaging modalities\, computational algorithms for studying two-dimensional and three-dimensional cellular structures and clusters\, and adaptive optics for multiphoton microscopy. She has 15 peer-reviewed publications\, 10 of which are first-author papers in journals including Nature Photonics\, Advances in Optics and Photonics\, and Light: Science & Applications. She currently works on confocal phase imaging in deep turbid tissues and wavefront sensing and correction for improving multiphoton imaging in live animals funded by her NIH k99/R00 award.\n\nZoom:\nhttps://umich.zoom.us/j/94801149707 UID:116591-21837606@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/116591 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Biology,biomedical,biomedical engineering,Biosciences,Biotechnology,bme,engineer,engineering LOCATION:Electrical Engineering and Computer Science Building - 1311 CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20240126T123226 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20240111T160000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20240111T173000 SUMMARY:Careers / Jobs: Ares | Campus Recruiting | Virtual Information Session (1) DESCRIPTION:Join our campus recruiting team and current Ares professionalsto learn more about our 2025 summer analyst roles!

The glass masters were trained in schools of art and design and many achieved international fame during their lifetimes. \n\nThe collectors\, Endi Poskovic and his wife Julie Anne Visco\, began acquiring the glass in 2015-16 while Endi was a Fulbright Scholar and Visiting Professor at the Jan Matejko Academy of Fine Arts in Kraków.

Through collaborations with her immediate community\, and also using herself as a subject\, Lee draws inspiration from the quotidian\, creating offbeat images that aim to preserve this moment in time\, (re) examine memories (especially those clouded by confusion) all the while asking questions around identity and existence.\n\nLee holds a BFA from the Maurice Kanbar Institute of Film and Television at New York University’s Tisch School of the Arts. She is currently pursuing her MFA in Photography at School of the Art Institute of Chicago.\n\nIn Lee’s photographic exploration\, she investigates the profound connection between places and structures and the echoes of trauma that inhabit them. “Holding Places” is an exhibition that immerses viewers into a visual narrative\, inviting them to witness the power of space as holders and conduits for personal memory.\n\nBy reconstructing these places by hand in model scale and rendering them not as they were\, but how she experienced them\, she is able to navigate intimate details and hidden narratives that exist within them. The process of crafting these miniatures becomes a meditative contemplation\, giving Lee time to sit and reflect on these past events.\n\nThrough Lee’s lens\, they capture the visual manifestations of the ghosts of the past. The photographs offer glimpses into spaces where anguish\, conflict and distress have left their imprints\, sometimes visible\, sometimes buried beneath layers of time (and self preservation).

Unlike previous U-M Library exhibits that focused on the artist at work\, this display shows him in informal and familial environments\, revealing a depth and complexity of character that are often overshadowed by his fame and professional achievements. The photographs and documents displayed showcase a variety of emotional tones — warmth\, humor\, tenderness\, and passion. Candid and relaxed more than posed\, they are similar to most people's pictures in old family albums.\n\nCulled from the Orson Welles-Beatrice Welles materials that are part of the Mavericks & Makers collection within the U-M Library’s Special Collections Research Center\, each photo or letter tells a story of a connection Welles held dearly. The materials included are from two periods: the late 1920s and early 1930s\, when Welles was a teenager\, and the mid-1950s to early 1960s\, during the early years of his marriage to his third wife\, Paola Mori. \n\nIt should be noted that Welles’s personal life was messy at best. Other collections housed at U-M that include personal materials related to Welles document his first and second marriages\, including the Welles-Feder Collection and the Wilson-Welles Collection. The items on display here were saved by his third and final child\, Beatrice Welles\, and reflect her childhood memories of her parents.\n\nThe exhibit is available during Hatcher Gallery Exhibit Room hours (https://umlib.us/hatchergalleryexhibits).

However\, existing methods such as quantile regression typically fall short for high-dimensional response variables\, such as spatial fields of climate variables. To address this\, distributional learning aims to estimate a generative model to describe the target distribution\, which enables inference by sampling. In this talk\, we introduce a distributional learning method called engression. We discuss the potential of distributional learning for problems that persist even with access to the population of the training data\, including extrapolation\, distribution shifts\, and causal inference. Specifically\, we demonstrate that the reliability of engression does not break down immediately at the boundary of the training support\, in contrast to neural network regression or tree ensembles. In addition\, we present variants of engression for multi-environment data or under an instrumental variable setting to achieve robust prediction against distribution shifts and causal effect estimation. Engression has also been shown to be effective in modeling distributions of high-dimensional climate data. Finally\, we point out several outlooks of engression in smoothing\, classification\, and dimensionality reduction. \n\n\nBio: Xinwei Shen is a postdoctoral researcher at the Seminar for Statistics at ETH Zürich working with Peter Bühlmann and Nicolai Meinshausen. In 2022\, she obtained her PhD at Hong Kong University of Science and Technology advised by Tong Zhang. Her research interests include distributional learning\, causality\, robustness\, and applications in climate science.

Our goal is to hijack these metabolic pathways to create custom molecules for solving problems related to human health and the environment. The major challenges lie in understanding the mechanism of these dynamic pathways and decoding the relationship between enzyme sequence\, structure\, and function. Building upon state-of-the-art technologies\, we use enhanced sampling molecular dynamics\, machine learning\, and computational models tightly coupled to experimental results for protein and small molecule design. Recent breakthroughs include uncovering molecular recognition mechanisms in carrier-protein dependent biosynthesis pathways and understanding viral infection.

Whereas some couples faltered under the pressure of balancing work and family during the height of the pandemic\, others thrived. Shaping these experiences was the widespread adoption of remote work which gave rise to various possible work from home configurations among couples. Further\, the closures of daycare centers and schools created added strain on the lives of dual-earning couples with young children. This presentation is two-fold. First\, using survey data from August 2020-March 2021 with both members of 343 heterosexual\, dual-earning U.S. couples\, I examine whether the extent of remote work at home distinctly affects men and women’s own behavioral work-family conflict\, and how this crosses over to their partner’s behavioral work-family conflict. I also discuss if the actor and partner effects vary for parents and childfree couples. Most work-family conflict research uses perceptual scales to measure effects of time\, energy\, strain\, and behavior (e.g.\, Carlson et al. 2000\; Greenhaus et al. 2006\; Netemeyer et al. 1996). However\, long-standing perceptual measures have not distinguished “between subjective and behavioral role conflict” (Clark et al. 2019: 40). This study provides a unique opportunity to analyze specific instances of work-family conflict (e.g.\, less engaged\, less attentive\, frustrated\, or short-tempered with family or co-workers)\, regardless of expected behaviors in either domain. Second\, using interview data from 37 dyads (subset of survey dyads)\, I provide a phenomenological account of how the couples made sense of their pandemic work/family experiences. Using data from both spouses\, an inductive account of what work-family conflict \"looked\" like in the family reveals that some view it as compartmentalized and others as unified. Others framed managing work-family conflict either as heroes\, responding to a serious\, often unexpected situation that requires immediate reaction or a victim\, which involves or results in someone or something adversely affected by an external force or agent. Those couples that are emotionally close seem to work together as a team and communicate about their needs. Those that are emotionally distant couples seem to value work above family\, leaving each spouse to cope on their own. By examining what couples were saying and doing\, we can consider how work-family conflict manifests within the context of COVID-19.

For example\, kernel-based algorithms take a data set of size N\, form the kernel matrix of size N x N\, and then perform an eigendecomposition or inversion at a cost of O(N^3) operations. For data sets of size N >= 10^5\, kernel learning is too expensive\, straining the limits of personal workstations and even dedicated computing clusters. Randomized iterative methods have emerged as a faster alternative to the classical approaches. These methods combine randomized exploration with information about which matrix structures are important\, leading to significant speed gains.\n\nIn this talk\, I will review recent developments concerning two randomized algorithms. The first is \"randomized block Krylov iteration\"\, which uses an array of random Gaussian test vectors to probe a large data matrix in order to provide a randomized principal component analysis. Remarkably\, this approach works well even when the matrix of interest is not low-rank. The second algorithm is \"randomly pivoted Cholesky decomposition\"\, which iteratively samples columns from a positive semidefinite matrix using a novelty metric and reconstructs the matrix from the randomly selected columns. Ultimately\, both algorithms furnish a randomized approximation of an N x N matrix with a reduced rank k << N\, which enables fast inversion or singular value decomposition at a cost of O(N k^2) operations. The speed-up factor from N^3 to N k^2 operations can be 3 million. The newest algorithms achieve this speed-up factor while guaranteeing performance across a broad range of input matrices.\n\nContact: Shravan Veerapaneni UID:114760-21833575@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/114760 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Mathematics LOCATION:East Hall - 1084 CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20231212T100459 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20240112T150000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20240112T170000 SUMMARY:Reception / Open House:Transfer Transitions Resource Fair DESCRIPTION:Welcome\, winter 2024 transfer students! \n\nThe Transfer Transitions series is aimed at supporting your transition to U-M by hosting events with different offices and organizations on campus\; we hope these events will help you to connect with resources\, opportunities\, peers\, and staff and contribute to a positive first-semester experience on campus.

Morse-ness in convex projective geometry DESCRIPTION:The (Hilbert metric) geometry of properly convex domains generalizes real hyperbolic geometry. This generalization is far from the Riemannian notion of non-positive curvature but they have some intriguing similarities. In coarse geometry\, Morse geodesics embody “negatively curved” directions. In this talk\, I will explore Morse geodesics in a properly convex domain. I will show that Morse-ness can be characterized entirely using linear algebraic data (i.e. singular values of matrices that track the geodesic). Further\, I will discuss how this coarse geometric notion of Morse is closely related to a symmetric space notion of Morse (studied by Kapovich-Leeb-Porti) as well as the smoothness of boundary points. This is joint work with Theodore Weisman.

Unlike previous U-M Library exhibits that focused on the artist at work\, this display shows him in informal and familial environments\, revealing a depth and complexity of character that are often overshadowed by his fame and professional achievements. The photographs and documents displayed showcase a variety of emotional tones — warmth\, humor\, tenderness\, and passion. Candid and relaxed more than posed\, they are similar to most people's pictures in old family albums.\n\nCulled from the Orson Welles-Beatrice Welles materials that are part of the Mavericks & Makers collection within the U-M Library’s Special Collections Research Center\, each photo or letter tells a story of a connection Welles held dearly. The materials included are from two periods: the late 1920s and early 1930s\, when Welles was a teenager\, and the mid-1950s to early 1960s\, during the early years of his marriage to his third wife\, Paola Mori. \n\nIt should be noted that Welles’s personal life was messy at best. Other collections housed at U-M that include personal materials related to Welles document his first and second marriages\, including the Welles-Feder Collection and the Wilson-Welles Collection. The items on display here were saved by his third and final child\, Beatrice Welles\, and reflect her childhood memories of her parents.\n\nThe exhibit is available during Hatcher Gallery Exhibit Room hours (https://umlib.us/hatchergalleryexhibits).

Jill's magical connection to her audience is the result of her generous artistry. By combining her gifts as a conceptual visionary with a warm gathering of musical influences\, Jill touches that secret heart of ours with her melodies and lyrics. In her hometown of Detroit\, Jill needs no further explanation. She’s been lauded in equal measure to her talents: Since 1997 she’s won dozens of Detroit Music Awards in every conceivable category that applies to a singer-songwriter. Jill extends the tradition of the confessional (i.e. achingly open\, unafraid of intimacy) singer-songwriter\, and is proud of that style and its continuation. You get all of Jill Jack in a performance—her blend of folk and rock traditions\, her open humor. Jill's generous spirit has benefited plenty of other musicians around the Detroit area\, so come and wish her a happy birthday!\n\nPlease visit https://mutotix.umich.edu/4368/4369 for more detail.

Unlike previous U-M Library exhibits that focused on the artist at work\, this display shows him in informal and familial environments\, revealing a depth and complexity of character that are often overshadowed by his fame and professional achievements. The photographs and documents displayed showcase a variety of emotional tones — warmth\, humor\, tenderness\, and passion. Candid and relaxed more than posed\, they are similar to most people's pictures in old family albums.\n\nCulled from the Orson Welles-Beatrice Welles materials that are part of the Mavericks & Makers collection within the U-M Library’s Special Collections Research Center\, each photo or letter tells a story of a connection Welles held dearly. The materials included are from two periods: the late 1920s and early 1930s\, when Welles was a teenager\, and the mid-1950s to early 1960s\, during the early years of his marriage to his third wife\, Paola Mori. \n\nIt should be noted that Welles’s personal life was messy at best. Other collections housed at U-M that include personal materials related to Welles document his first and second marriages\, including the Welles-Feder Collection and the Wilson-Welles Collection. The items on display here were saved by his third and final child\, Beatrice Welles\, and reflect her childhood memories of her parents.\n\nThe exhibit is available during Hatcher Gallery Exhibit Room hours (https://umlib.us/hatchergalleryexhibits).

Modernist Glass from the Polish Past DESCRIPTION:The glass in this rare collection represents the work of renowned Polish glass artists and designers created between 1960 and 1980. Known as Polskie szkło artystyczne (Polish art glass)\, the works were produced in glass factories in southern Poland and are a feature of many homes throughout Central Europe. The glass masters were trained in schools of art and design and many achieved international fame during their lifetimes. \n\nThe collectors\, Endi Poskovic and his wife Julie Anne Visco\, began acquiring the glass in 2015-16 while Endi was a Fulbright Scholar and Visiting Professor at the Jan Matejko Academy of Fine Arts in Kraków. Scouring flea markets\, antique shops\, and websites\, they continue to acquire pieces and build the collection to this day. We are grateful to them for making this remarkable exhibit possible at CCPS and WCEE.\n\nOrganized by the Copernicus Center for Polish Studies\, this exhibition is co-sponsored by the Penny W. Stamps School of Art & Design and Weiser Center for Europe and Eurasia.\n\nLearn more about the exhibition and the artists at https://myumi.ch/8eVrM\n\nThe exhibit opens on September 15\, 2023 in 1010 Weiser Hall\, 500 Church Street\, Ann Arbor.

Unlike previous U-M Library exhibits that focused on the artist at work\, this display shows him in informal and familial environments\, revealing a depth and complexity of character that are often overshadowed by his fame and professional achievements. The photographs and documents displayed showcase a variety of emotional tones — warmth\, humor\, tenderness\, and passion. Candid and relaxed more than posed\, they are similar to most people's pictures in old family albums.\n\nCulled from the Orson Welles-Beatrice Welles materials that are part of the Mavericks & Makers collection within the U-M Library’s Special Collections Research Center\, each photo or letter tells a story of a connection Welles held dearly. The materials included are from two periods: the late 1920s and early 1930s\, when Welles was a teenager\, and the mid-1950s to early 1960s\, during the early years of his marriage to his third wife\, Paola Mori. \n\nIt should be noted that Welles’s personal life was messy at best. Other collections housed at U-M that include personal materials related to Welles document his first and second marriages\, including the Welles-Feder Collection and the Wilson-Welles Collection. The items on display here were saved by his third and final child\, Beatrice Welles\, and reflect her childhood memories of her parents.\n\nThe exhibit is available during Hatcher Gallery Exhibit Room hours (https://umlib.us/hatchergalleryexhibits).

Mathematical modeling has been used to study diverse biological topics ranging from protein folding to cell interactions to interacting populations of humans but has only recently been used to study photoreceptor degeneration\, which occurs in age-related maculardegeneration (AMD) and retinitis pigmentosa (RP). There are many different maladies that can result in blindness but the ones that result from photoreceptor degeneration pose the biggest threat as there is no cure. Computer (in silico) experiments in this area have given researchers invaluable insights to mitigate blindness and\, in some cases\, re-directed experimental research. My mathematical models\, often developed in collaboration with experimental researchers and/or their data\, investigate experimentally observed photoreceptor death and rescue in retinal degeneration\, the complex interrelated metabolic pathways in cones\, and the impact of administered neurotrophic factors. Dynamical systems\, optimal control\, uncertainty and sensitivity analysis together with in silico experiments are used to analyze these systems of nonlinear differential equations. This work highlights the delicate balance of many aspects of the photoreceptor system including the inter-dependent and inter-connected feedback processes modulated by and affecting cone’s metabolism. My work provides a framework for future physiological investigations potentially leading to long-term targeted multi-faceted interventions and therapies.

Modernist Glass from the Polish Past DESCRIPTION:The glass in this rare collection represents the work of renowned Polish glass artists and designers created between 1960 and 1980. Known as Polskie szkło artystyczne (Polish art glass)\, the works were produced in glass factories in southern Poland and are a feature of many homes throughout Central Europe. The glass masters were trained in schools of art and design and many achieved international fame during their lifetimes. \n\nThe collectors\, Endi Poskovic and his wife Julie Anne Visco\, began acquiring the glass in 2015-16 while Endi was a Fulbright Scholar and Visiting Professor at the Jan Matejko Academy of Fine Arts in Kraków. Scouring flea markets\, antique shops\, and websites\, they continue to acquire pieces and build the collection to this day. We are grateful to them for making this remarkable exhibit possible at CCPS and WCEE.\n\nOrganized by the Copernicus Center for Polish Studies\, this exhibition is co-sponsored by the Penny W. Stamps School of Art & Design and Weiser Center for Europe and Eurasia.\n\nLearn more about the exhibition and the artists at https://myumi.ch/8eVrM\n\nThe exhibit opens on September 15\, 2023 in 1010 Weiser Hall\, 500 Church Street\, Ann Arbor.

Unlike previous U-M Library exhibits that focused on the artist at work\, this display shows him in informal and familial environments\, revealing a depth and complexity of character that are often overshadowed by his fame and professional achievements. The photographs and documents displayed showcase a variety of emotional tones — warmth\, humor\, tenderness\, and passion. Candid and relaxed more than posed\, they are similar to most people's pictures in old family albums.\n\nCulled from the Orson Welles-Beatrice Welles materials that are part of the Mavericks & Makers collection within the U-M Library’s Special Collections Research Center\, each photo or letter tells a story of a connection Welles held dearly. The materials included are from two periods: the late 1920s and early 1930s\, when Welles was a teenager\, and the mid-1950s to early 1960s\, during the early years of his marriage to his third wife\, Paola Mori. \n\nIt should be noted that Welles’s personal life was messy at best. Other collections housed at U-M that include personal materials related to Welles document his first and second marriages\, including the Welles-Feder Collection and the Wilson-Welles Collection. The items on display here were saved by his third and final child\, Beatrice Welles\, and reflect her childhood memories of her parents.\n\nThe exhibit is available during Hatcher Gallery Exhibit Room hours (https://umlib.us/hatchergalleryexhibits).

On the other hand\, there is still a lack of coordination frameworks that leverage the full capability of the single agents during complex multi-agent tasks. This dissertation tries to bridge the gap between single and multi-agent tasks through the development of a hierarchical multi-agent feedback planning system. This framework contains several key components: a task allocation planner responsible for forming agent teams and planning routes and schedules\; a trajectory planner that ensures coordinated movements among agents\; and a learning model that estimates agent capabilities and task requirements to provide feedback for updating the plans. It runs in pre-execution and real-time and applies both proactive and reactive methods to generate robust plans under uncertainty. The framework scales to hundreds of agents and generalizes to multiple problem types\, including capture-the-flag games\, robotic service allocation\, multi-robot tour guiding\, exploring and block picking\, and cooperative manipulation.\n\nZoom passcode: bofuphd UID:116874-21838135@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/116874 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Michigan Engineering,Michigan Robotics,Robotics LOCATION:Ford Robotics Building - 2300 CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20240131T123239 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20240116T100000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20240116T120000 SUMMARY:Careers / Jobs:Navigating USAJOBS & Introduction to Federal Resume Writing (16 JAN 2024) DESCRIPTION:Army Civilian Careers invites you to participate in a virtual informational session on federal resume writing\, navigating USAJOBS website\, including paid internships and fellowships in the federal government.We are a values-based community of nearly 300\,000 federal civilian employees\, much like those in other U.S. Departments\, e.g.\, State\, Justice\, and Education.

Expensive\, hard to handle stoichiometric reagents can be replaced by short-lived excited states using a visible light absorbing photocatalyst. While the scope of photoredox methods has grown at an exceptional pace\, mechanistic and kinetic understanding has lagged behind. An overarching goal of research in the Swierk group is to provide a solid mechanistic foundation for reactions that are successful but poorly understood. This talk will describe how a combination of transient absorption spectroscopy\, electrochemical methods\, steady state photochemical measurements\, and kinetic modeling can be used to map out the reaction mechanisms and kinetics of photoredox reactions\, using prototypical photoredox reactions as examples. The importance of quantum yield and\, by extension mechanistic studies\, will be discussed and highlighted as a key criteria for translating photoredox catalysis to scale.

I will present three separate but interconnected strategies to expand DFT methodologies into the realm of neural network and modern machine learning techniques. First the traditional force field approach\, where neural networks are replacing expensive DFT calculations while promising same accuracy. Secondly I will present our efforts on optimizing the exchange and correlation (XC) functional aiming to improve simultaneously densities and total energies in the Kohn-Sham Hamiltonian. Finally I will introduce our work towards developing a universal electron force field\, which aims to achieve multi scaling capabilities while incorporating\, at a semi-classical level ions and electrons in the same footing.

Classically\, the notion of stability describes robustness under small perturbations of the input and regularization is employed to derive solutions from problems that lack this stable dependence. \n\nIn this talk\, we visit different problems and methods that lack stability in some\, probably less classical\, sense. First\, we discuss a phase retrieval problem which is not uniformly stable. This non-linear inverse problem cannot be tackled by classical regularization and we highlight possible connections between uniqueness and stability of this problem. Next\, we take a look at robustness through the lens of adversarial attacks both for image classification and image reconstruction. While it is known that successful attacks can be designed for data-driven methods\, we find that also classical regularization methods can be adversarially attacked.\n\nThe last part of the talk is devoted to operator learning and its stability with respect to discretizations. We propose a novel concept of neural operators that by-passes aliasing. These Representation equivalent Neural Operators (ReNOs) establish a unique and stable link between operators on infinite-dimensional spaces and their discrete realizations.

One interesting example is the Mondrian random forest\, in which the underlying trees are constructed according to a Mondrian process. We give a novel central limit theorem for the estimates made by a Mondrian random forest in the regression setting. When combined with a bias characterization and a consistent variance estimator\, this allows one to perform asymptotically valid statistical inference on the unknown regression function. We also provide a debiasing procedure for Mondrian random forests which allows them to achieve minimax-optimal estimation rates.

These network interactions are important to many complex processes\, including goal-directed control. In my lab\, we study large-scale network organization in humans and the principles by which it can vary -- and how these variations contribute to control functions and their breakdown. In the presentation\, I will review a sampling of recent studies from our lab investigating forms of variation in large-scale networks within and across people. I will then discuss how these variations influence our studies of control.\n\n\n\n\n*Light refreshments will be served.\n*Please take the Church St. elevator to the 4th floor.

Prasanna. Let p be a prime\; inspired by an earlier work by E. Urban and myself which treated the case of the quadratic base change for GL_2\, we formulate a conjecture (and establish part of it)\, in the case of the transfer from GSp(4) to GL(4)\,\n of a cohomological cuspidal representation \pi\, relating the integral periods of \pi and those of its transfer. The proof involves special values of adjoint automorphic L functions and their interpretation as congruence numbers. It seems it can be generalized to several other transfers. It has also consequences for the Bloch-Kato conjecture at p.

This presentation will focus on macromolecular silanes\, inclusive of clusters\, polymers\, and polymer networks. Silicon is the semiconductor behind technologies like computer chips\, solar cells\, and batteries. The conventional approach to silicon-based materials is “top-down”: in a high-temperature process sand (SiO2) is converted to silicon (Si) ingots\, which is carved down to smaller components. This process only accesses the most thermodynamically stable form of silicon\, leaving uncovered vast swaths of structure-function space. Can we instead build silicon from the bottom-up\, atom-by-atom? Our approach realizes otherwise unknown structures and compositions. Inspired by the cyclic subunits embedded within crystalline silicon\, we envisioned that cyclosilane “building blocks” functionalized at distinct sites with reactive groups (e.g.\, SiH2) could be elaborated via dehydrogenative coupling to the poly(cyclosilane)s\, a new polymeric form of an essential semiconductor. We have realized unprecedented levels of stereochemical and architectural control of structure\, from which structure-based control of light absorption has emerged. The presentation will conclude on a new direction for macromolecular silanes\, focusing on the wide-ranging impact of silicon’s greater polarizability on polymer mechanical properties\, from the single strand to the network.

Modernist Glass from the Polish Past DESCRIPTION:The glass in this rare collection represents the work of renowned Polish glass artists and designers created between 1960 and 1980. Known as Polskie szkło artystyczne (Polish art glass)\, the works were produced in glass factories in southern Poland and are a feature of many homes throughout Central Europe. The glass masters were trained in schools of art and design and many achieved international fame during their lifetimes. \n\nThe collectors\, Endi Poskovic and his wife Julie Anne Visco\, began acquiring the glass in 2015-16 while Endi was a Fulbright Scholar and Visiting Professor at the Jan Matejko Academy of Fine Arts in Kraków. Scouring flea markets\, antique shops\, and websites\, they continue to acquire pieces and build the collection to this day. We are grateful to them for making this remarkable exhibit possible at CCPS and WCEE.\n\nOrganized by the Copernicus Center for Polish Studies\, this exhibition is co-sponsored by the Penny W. Stamps School of Art & Design and Weiser Center for Europe and Eurasia.\n\nLearn more about the exhibition and the artists at https://myumi.ch/8eVrM\n\nThe exhibit opens on September 15\, 2023 in 1010 Weiser Hall\, 500 Church Street\, Ann Arbor.

Unlike previous U-M Library exhibits that focused on the artist at work\, this display shows him in informal and familial environments\, revealing a depth and complexity of character that are often overshadowed by his fame and professional achievements. The photographs and documents displayed showcase a variety of emotional tones — warmth\, humor\, tenderness\, and passion. Candid and relaxed more than posed\, they are similar to most people's pictures in old family albums.\n\nCulled from the Orson Welles-Beatrice Welles materials that are part of the Mavericks & Makers collection within the U-M Library’s Special Collections Research Center\, each photo or letter tells a story of a connection Welles held dearly. The materials included are from two periods: the late 1920s and early 1930s\, when Welles was a teenager\, and the mid-1950s to early 1960s\, during the early years of his marriage to his third wife\, Paola Mori. \n\nIt should be noted that Welles’s personal life was messy at best. Other collections housed at U-M that include personal materials related to Welles document his first and second marriages\, including the Welles-Feder Collection and the Wilson-Welles Collection. The items on display here were saved by his third and final child\, Beatrice Welles\, and reflect her childhood memories of her parents.\n\nThe exhibit is available during Hatcher Gallery Exhibit Room hours (https://umlib.us/hatchergalleryexhibits).

More than 90% of wetlands in Ohio have been destroyed and most major water bodies in the state now experience annual harmful cyanobacterial blooms. The H2Ohio Initiative in part funds statewide wetland restoration to improve water quality through nutrient reduction. Dr. Newell is one of the H2Ohio Wetland Monitoring Program leads\, monitoring water quality at newly constructed wetland or restored wetlands. This talk will focus on nutrient reductions at two wetlands: Brooks Park flowing into Buckeye Lake\, a hypereutrophic lake experiencing annual harmful algal blooms. Brooks Park wetland was built at the junction of Murphy’s Run creek into Buckeye Lake\, draining a very small watershed (1.2 sq. miles) and behaves as either a flow-through wetland or a coastal wetland depending on precipitation. Preliminary data from the first year of monitoring indicates that the wetland is a sink for total nitrogen (>3000 lbs/yr)\, but a small source of ammonium (~44 lbs/yr). However\, the wetland is a very small source of total phosphorus (~42 lbs/yr)\, while a sink for soluble reactive phosphorus (~16 lbs/yr). The 90-acre Burntwood-Langenkamp Wetland Conservation Area is located at the confluence of Burntwood and Coldwater Creeks in Mercer County. This site is a former corn/soybean field in the Grand Lake Saint Marys watershed. Water enters the site from Burntwood Creek (BWC) through pump and overflow and then flows through a series of settling ponds and vegetated flats that extend for over a mile. BWC drains approximately 5\,700 acres of watershed land and can hold approximately 20 million gallons of water. Total Nitrogen (TN) concentrations at the outflow are approximately 73% lower than the TN inflow concentrations\, which average over 16.3 mg N/L for the year 2023. An approximate annual decrease thus far of ~55% in SRP concentration has been seen between the inflow and outflow with outflow concentrations averaging 0.044 mg P/L. Nutrient load reduction will likely vary as the wetlands mature\, but data from the first year indicate that both wetlands are already performing a vital ecosystem service.

The Zoom call will be locked 10 minutes after the start of the presentation. \n\nUsing Synergies Between Survey Statistics and Causal Inference to Improve Transportability of Clinical Trials\n\nMedical researchers have understood for many years that treatment effect estimates obtained from a randomized clinical trial (RCT) -- termed efficacy'' -- can differ from those obtained in a general population -- termed effectiveness''. Only in the past decade has extensive work begun in the statistical literature to bridge this gap using formal quantitative methods. As noted by Rod Little in a letter to the editor in the New Yorker ...randomization in randomized clinical trials concerns the allocation of the treatment\, not the selection of individuals for the study. The latter can have an important impact on the average size of a treatment effect\,'' with RCT samples often designed\, sometimes explicitly\, to be more likely to include individuals for whom the treatment may be more effective.\n\nThis issue has been various termed generalizability'' or transportability.\" Why do we care about transportability? In RCTs we are in the happy situation were treatment assignment is randomized\, so confounding due to either observed or unobserved (pre-treatment) covariates is not an issue. But while randomization of treatment eliminates the effect of unobserved confounders\, at least net of non-compliance\, it does not eliminate the effect of unobserved effect modifiers\, which can impact the causal effect of treatment in a population that differs from the RCT sample population. The impact of these interactions on the marginal effect of treatment thus can differ between the RCT population and the final population of interest.\n\nConcurrent with research into transportability has been research into making population inference from non-probability samples. There is a close overlap between these two approaches\, particularly with respect to the non-probability inference methods that rely on information from a relevant probability sample of the target population to reduce selection bias effects. When there are relevant censuses or probability samples of the target patient population of interest\, these methods can be adapted to transport information from the RCT to the patient population. Because the RCT setting focuses on causal inference\, this adaptation involves extensions to estimate counterfactuals. Thus approaches that treat population inference as a missing data problem are a natural fit to connect these two strands of methodological innovation.\n\nIn particular\, we propose to extend a pseudo-weighting'' methodology from other non-probability settings to a doubly robust'' estimator that treats sampling probabilities or weights as regression covariates to achieve consistent estimation of population quantities. We explore our proposed approach and compare with some standard existing methods in a simulation study to assess the effectiveness of the approach under differing degrees of selection bias and model misspecification\, and compare it with results obtained using the RT data only and with existing methods that use inverse probability weights. We apply it to a study of pulmonary artery catheterization in critically ill patients where we believe differences between the trial sample and the larger population might impact overall estimates of treatment effects.

Inasmuch as biodiversity is critical in maintaining delicate balances within and across ecosystems that ensure survival\, diversity as a core element of excellence enhances the respective communities from which individuals come\, but more importantly\, it enhances the larger human condition. Despite substantive evidence of the myriad benefits of diversity\, there are concerted efforts to delegitimize Diversity\, Equity\, and Inclusion (DEI) progress through anti-DEI legislation at the local\, state\, and federal levels. The sociopolitical climate has a chilling atmosphere\, which suggests DEI is antithetical to free thought\, freedom of speech\, and meritocracy. \n\nCentral to the mission of higher education is critical inquiry\, knowledge production\, and problem-solving\, which are critical to the continued advancement of society. As such\, if higher education is to be a vehicle whereby we interrogate and address complex issues\, it is important to recognize that our excellence as an institution is dependent upon diverse perspectives and ideas in order to achieve the collective and intended impact. Though it can be difficult to construct a shared meaning\, innovative solutions often come as a result of contributions from diverse viewpoints (Sun et al.\, 2016). Further\, in recognizing that diverse perspectives and ideas are necessary for the advancement and vitality of our society\, we must also acknowledge that diverse viewpoints are a function of and connected to the lived experiences of individuals and their respective identities that shape the way they come to know and understand the world. \n\nThrough this discussion\, panelists will draw upon their expertise and experience as scholars and practitioners to offer counternarratives and frame the essentiality of diversity to our collective understanding of what excellence encompasses.\n\n\n\nSPEAKERS\n\nElizabeth R.

High energy density (HED) plasmas generated using lasers\, such as the inertial confinement fusion (ICF) platforms at the NIF and OMEGA facilities\, more closely mimic astrophysical environments in several ways. These include thermal distributions of reacting ions as opposed to mono-energetic ions impinging on a cold target\; stellar-relevant plasma temperatures and densities\; and neutron flux densities not found elsewhere on earth. This talk will present some initial nuclear astrophysics-relevant results for the T+T and solar 3He+3He reactions using this platform to illustrate the possibilities\, and describe efforts to study the 3He+3He reaction at stellar-relevant conditions at NIF and with unprecedented data quality at OMEGA. Future directions\, including platform developments to study CNO-cycle-relevant reactions including higher Z ions\, neutron capture on nuclei in excited states and electron screening will also be discussed. The work was supported in part by the US DOE\, LLE\, and LLNL.\n\nAbout the Speaker: \nDr. Maria Gatu Johnson is a principal research scientist at the MIT Plasma Science and Fusion Center\, where she develops and uses nuclear diagnostics to diagnose inertial confinement fusion (ICF) experiments. In particular\, she has focused her efforts on working to understand stagnation physics in ICF implosions\, helping guide the ICF program at the National Ignition Facility (NIF) to ignition and energy gain and the program at the OMEGA laser facility to record yields. Another primary focus of her work is plasma nuclear science-relevant basic-science experiments at OMEGA and the NIF. She also manages an accelerator laboratory at MIT dedicated to diagnostic development for ICF and high energy density physics (HEDP) experiments. She obtained her PhD from Uppsala University\, Sweden\, in 2010\, working on neutron di-agnostics for the JET tokamak. She is the recipient of awards including the 2019 Katherine E Weimer Award\, and is a Fellow of the American Physical Society. She is proud to be an APS DPP Ally since 2019.\n\nThis is a hybrid event.

DESCRIPTION:Let $\Delta^o$ be a finite set and\, for each probability measure $m$ on $\Delta^o$\, let $G(m)$ be a transition kernel on $\Delta^o$. Consider the sequence $\{X_n\}$ of $\Delta^o$-valued random variables such that\, and given $X_0\,\ldots\,X_n$\, the conditional distribution of $X_{n+1}$ is $G(L^{n+1})(X_n\,\cdot)$\, where $L^{n+1}=\frac{1}{n+1}\sum_{i=0}^{n}\delta_{X_i}$. Under conditions on $G$ we establish a large deviation principle for the sequence $\{L^n\}$. As one application of this result we obtain large deviation asymptotics for the Aldous-Flannery-Palacios (1988) approximation scheme for quasi-stationary distributions of finite state Markov chains. The conditions on $G$ cover other models as well\, including certain models with edge or vertex reinforcement.

DESCRIPTION:Classifying the invariant measures for a given dynamical system is a fundamental problem.\n\nIn the field of homogeneous dynamics\, several important theorems give us an essentially complete picture.Moving away from homogeneous dynamics — results are scarcer\, mainly due to some profound difficulties carrying out the techniques used in homogeneous dynamics.\n\nA recent development in Teichmuller dynamics — the celebrated magic wand theorem of Eskin–Mirzakhani\, gives one such example and actually provides a technique — the factorization method — for proving such results in certain systems.\n\nI will explain how one can implement the factorization method of Eskin–Mirzakhani in smooth dynamics\, in order to achieve measure classification of u-Gibbs states for non-integrable Anosov actions. Moreover\, I will try to explain some applications of the theorem\, including a result of Avila–Crovosier–Eskin–Potrie–Wilkinson–Zhang towards Gogolev’s conjecture on actions on the 3D torus.

Mass Expulsion in Medieval Europe DESCRIPTION:Beginning in the twelfth century\, Jewish moneylenders increasingly found themselves in the crosshairs of European authorities\, who denounced the evils of usury as they expelled Jews from their lands. Yet Jews were not alone in supplying coin and credit to needy borrowers. Across much of Western Europe\, foreign Christians likewise engaged in professional moneylending\, and they too faced repeated threats of expulsion from the communities in which they settled. In charting the emergence and spread of this association between usury and expulsion\, this talk will explore how mass expulsion became a pervasive feature of European law and politics—with tragic consequences that have reverberated down to the present.\n\nBio: Rowan Dorin is associate professor of History at Stanford University\, where his teaching and research focus on premodern Europe and the Mediterranean. He holds degrees from Harvard University and the University of Cambridge\, and he was previously a Junior Fellow at the Harvard Society of Fellows. In addition to his recent book\, No Return: Jews\, Christian Usurers\, and the Spread of Mass Expulsion in Medieval Europe (Princeton UP\, 2023)\, he has also published articles on Jewish-Christian relations\, medieval canon law\, digital humanities\, and the circulation of people\, goods\, and manuscripts in the premodern world.

The screening is free and open to the public.\n \n See the trailer here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2UczdNpVB1I\n \nFree tickets are available at https://myumi.ch/73yGj\n\nFrom the Indian Film Festival of Los Angeles:\n \n On the face of it\, the Arangu theater group looks like a safe space for a woman. Its sole actress\, Anjali\, appears to enjoy a forthright camaraderie with the rest of the twelve male members. Things are put to a test when one of the members gropes Anjali during a celebratory night out. When her partner and fellow actor Vinay finds out\, he calls for a group meeting to decide on the expulsion of the accused. As doubts grow and skeletons come tumbling out\, things quickly descend into chaos\, with none of the men coming off with flying colors.\n \n In his debut feature film\, Anand Ekarshi\, deftly deals with a critical feminist issue\, but from the flip side. Instead of foregrounding the act of violation against the woman\, he trains his camera on how men try to take control of the narrative in the aftermath of an offense. Ekarshi scripts Aattam like a chamber drama\, builds the tension bit by bit to a taut\, riveting cliffhanger of a climax. Having started his own creative journey on stage\, Ekarshi draws from the world of theater and performance arts. The strong\, finely tuned ensemble is led by young emerging star Zarin Shihab (The Family Man) and popular names like Vinay Forrt (Premam\, Thamasha) and Kalabhavan Shajohn (Drishyam\, Lucifer). Aattam is not just an authentic portrayal of patriarchy but also a stinging dissection and critique of toxicity and male entitlement.\n \n Anand Ekarshi is a filmmaker from Kerala\, India. His interest in theater and acting began at the age of 10 and grew with time into a passion for filmmaking. He credits his roots in storytelling to his time with Lokadharmi\, a Kochi-based theater group where he was a part of numerous performances across India for over a decade. His recent projects include Malayalam short films\, music videos\, and a short stint under acclaimed filmmaker Imitaz Ali. A graduate in communicative English and a post-graduate in psychology\, Anand finds inspiration for his narratives in the complexities of the human mind. Aattam (The Play) is his feature debut.\n \n *Made possible with the generous support of the Title VI grant from the U.S. Department of Education.*\n\n If there is anything we can do to make this event accessible to you\, please contact us. Please be aware that advance notice is necessary as some accommodations may require more time for the university to arrange.

Love & Special Sauce 30th Anniversary Tour DESCRIPTION:A free-spirited Philadelphia mix\n\nBorn Garrett Dutton in Philadelphia\, PA\, G. Love grew up equally enthralled with folk\, blues\, and rap\, devouring everything from Lead Belly and Run D.M.C. to John Hammond and the Beastie Boys. After migrating to Boston\, he and his band\, Special Sauce\, broke out in 1994 with their Gold-selling self-titled debut\, which earned widespread critical acclaim for its bold vision and adventurous production. Over the next twenty-five years\, G. Love would go on to release seven more similarly lauded studio studios albums with Special Sauce (plus four solo albums on his own)\, solidifying his place in music history as a genre-bending pioneer with a sound The New York Times described as \"a new and urgent hybrid\" and NPR called a \"musical melting pot.\" G. Love's magnetic stage presence\, meanwhile\, made him a fixture on festival lineups from Bonnaroo to Lollapalooza\, and his relentless appetite for tour and collaboration landed him on the road and in the studio with artists as diverse as Lucinda Williams\, Dave Matthews\, The Avett Brothers\, Jack Johnson\, and DJ Logic. G. Love celebrates his 30th anniversary with his latest album\, “The Juice\,” co-written and co-produced with blues great Keb’ Mo’.\nPlease visit https://mutotix.umich.edu/4463/4464 for more detail.
