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.

Pinto (School of Social Work) invites audiences to take part in an exhibition that examines his embodied gender states based on his intersecting childhood traumas and life experiences. In \"My Gender States\,\" Pinto shares his deep and abiding grief related to the childhood death of his sister and the subsequent gender embodiments that ensued stemming from the belief that he was his deceased sister. \n\nUsing autoethnography\, Pinto created a one-person play (\"Marília\,\" 2015) and site-specific installation performance (\"The Realm of the Dead\,\" 2022). These works explore the intersecting and shaping layers of childhood traumas\, gender states\, and his life experience—a story of the struggles\, fears\, and accomplishments he experienced as an immigrant to the United States. In \"Realm\,\" audiences circulated around 25 assemblage sculptures created from vintage suitcases and trunks that evoked the cemetery where Pinto’s sister was buried and the literal and figurative baggage that he\, a queer immigrant\, carried with him. \"My Gender States\" is a selection of materials\, images\, and texts from \"Marília\" and \"Realm\" curated to more closely examine the themes of gender and sexuality in these works. Collected are portrayals of Pinto’s gender states\, gender confusion\, gender embodiments\, gender doubt\, and reactions to gender stigma. \n\nRogério M. Pinto (Brazilian\, American\, b. 1965\, Belo Horizonte\, Brazil) is a University Diversity Social Transformation Professor\; Berit Ingersoll-Dayton Collegiate Professor of Social Work\; and Professor of Theatre and Drama\, School of Music\, Theatre & Dance\, at the University of Michigan. Pinto uses art-based methods to conduct community-engaged research in the United States and Brazil.\n\nThe photographs used in \"My Gender States\" are by Emerson Granillo (American\, b. 1987)\; David Newton (American\, b. 1993)\; and Nicholas Williams (American\, b. 1994). The \"Realm\" assemblages featured in \"My Gender States\" were conceived by Pinto and designed by him\, in collaboration with Sarah Tanner. \n\n\"My Gender States\" is on display in the Lane Hall Exhibit Space (first floor\, 204 S State St) from January 23\, to August 13\, 2024. The exhibit is free and open to the public\, M-F\, 9am-4pm.\n\nHosted by the Institute for Research on Women and Gender and the Women’s and Gender Studies Department.

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).

Whether designing furniture or developing the ideas for sculpture\, the process has always been the same. Ideas begin as\nscribbled images that are then stretched and refined with CAD software. At its core\, much of the work studies the manipulation of simple geometry. Dunn looks at the form from different forced perspectives – exploding\, augmenting\, slicing\, repeating\, and lighting. This body of work is a study of perception\, sympathy\, hierarchy\, and reality. The “We Are Virus” series is an adaptation from an initial design where it continued to evolve and adapt through manipulation of parts and scale.\n\nPeter Dunn received his BFA from Wayne State University and MFA from University of Michigan. He currently serves on faculty at College for Creative Studies UID:116532-21837301@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/116532 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Alumni,Art,Culture,Detroit,Exhibition,Humanities,Visual Arts LOCATION:North Campus Research Complex Building 18 - Rotunda Gallery CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20240115T111145 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20240208T090000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20240208T170000 SUMMARY:Exhibition:Stamps School of Art and Design Staff Exhibition DESCRIPTION:January 26-April 12\, 9 am - 5 pm or by appointment\ncontact: serrag@med.umich.edu UID:116536-21837460@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/116536 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Alumni,Art,Culture,Exhibition,Visual Arts LOCATION:North Campus Research Complex Building 18 - Connections Gallery located on concourse level CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20240209T105543 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20240208T090000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20240208T170000 SUMMARY:Exhibition:Take Your Time DESCRIPTION:Artist Enrico Riley is best known for paintings that investigate violence and hope in cultural traditions in African American culture. His new work—created for his exhibition at the Institute for the Humanities Gallery—is personal and abstract. Started as an attempt to paint for himself\, away from the center of things and off at the edges\, they are from the spaces of private thought that slip into existence and just as easily slip away. They come from an internal conversation and contact with the world. \"When I am with them\,\" Riley explains\, \"I feel a tension between the spaces in the works being present but unnamed. The paintings allow me to observe myself looking. I am acutely aware of time. Maybe they are an invitation to speculate.\" UID:116414-21836783@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/116414 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Art,Black History Month,Exhibition,Humanities,Visual Arts LOCATION:202 S.

Make Yourself At Home.\n \nA Gathering brings together the newest works of art to enter UMMA’s collection — many on display here for the first time. \n \nAs a free\, public museum\, UMMA staff takes care of art for the benefit of the community and society at large. The works on view in this exhibition\, all brought into the Museum between 2019 and the present\, shows how institutions like UMMA are becoming more permeable to societal challenges\, and more nimble in responding to them in service to all in their communities. In this exhibition you will find works that reflect on how global migrations\, race\, gender\, and ecological change shape the way we engage with the world and inform our visions for the future.\n \nThis collection of artistic engagements with issues give us tools to envision who we want to be as individuals\, as a museum\, and as a society\, connected to one another across space and experience.\n \nSo gather here to take in these latest works of art brought here for you. Gather here to be engulfed in their forms and meanings\, to discuss their takes\, to learn\, to disagree. Gather to relax\, make a friend\, drink a coffee\, finish the daily Wordle. Gather to feel full\, to be moved and inspired by all the possible imaginations of what is yet to come.\n \nCurated by Félix Zamora Gómez Irving Stenn\, Jr. Fellow in Public Humanities & Museum Pedagogy\n\nLead support for this exhibition is provided by Lizzie and Jonathan Tisch\, the Richard and Rosann Noel Endowment\, and the University of Michigan Office of the Provost.\n  UID:107870-21817724@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/107870 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Art,Exhibition,Free,Humanities,Museum,Staff,UMMA LOCATION:Museum of Art - Lizzie and Jonathan Tisch Apse CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20240130T121548 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20240208T100000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20240208T200000 SUMMARY:Exhibition:Andrea Carlson Future Cache DESCRIPTION:In Andrea Carlson Future Cache\, a 40-foot-tall memorial wall towers over visitors\, commemorating the Cheboiganing (Burt Lake) Band of Ottawa and Chippewa Indians who were violently burned from their land in Northern Michigan on October 15\, 1900. Written across the walls above and around the memorial\, a statement proclaims Anishinaabe rights to the land we stand on: “You are on Anishinaabe Land.”  \n \nPresented alongside are paintings of imagined decolonized landscapes and a symbolic cache of provisions. Future Cache implicitly asks those who have benefited from the legacies of colonization to consider where they stand and where to go from here and seeks to foster a sense of belonging for displaced Indigenous peoples fighting for restitution.\n\nSpecial thanks to the Cheboiganing (Burt Lake) Band of Ottawa and Chippewa Indians\, Margaret Noodin\, and Richard A. Wiles\, for their consultation on the State Historical Marker text\; to Margaret Noodin and Michael Zimmerman\, Jr. for translating the gallery texts into Anishinaabemowin\; to James Horton and Fritz Swanson for generously producing the letterpress broadsides\; to colleagues at the U-M Biological Station\, U-M Museum of Anthropological Archaeology\, U-M Clements Library\, and U-M Clark Map Library.

DESCRIPTION:Care in Uncertain Times\n \nAs crises of public health\, economic instability\, authoritarian regimes\, racial injustice\, and climate change spread around the globe\, millions are experiencing distress\, conflict\, uncertainty\, and vulnerability. This troubling combination of experiences is nothing new for Cambodians. Between 1975-1979\, when the Khmer Rouge ruled Cambodia\, about a quarter of the country’s populations died of infectious diseases\, weapon wounds\, and malnutrition.\n \nThis exhibition brings together more than 80 works of art spanning a millennium to present how the visual culture of Cambodia and its diaspora has evolved in the face of cultural upheaval. Showcasing works from worldwide collections\, including those from some of the foremost members of the Cambodian contemporary art scene\, Angkor Complex allows viewers to encounter the still-fresh scars of a genocide and critically appreciate the strategies evolved to nurture resilience in trying times.\n\nLead support for this exhibition is provided by the U-M Office of the Provost\, U-M Office of the President\, National Endowment for the Arts\, Michigan Arts and Culture Council\, Eleanor Noyes Crumpacker Endowment Fund\, and U-M Ross School of Business.\n  UID:114750-21833420@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/114750 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Art,Culture,Exhibition,Museum,Public Health,UMMA LOCATION:Museum of Art - A.

How have their perspectives shaped the enduring stories of our history and visions of the past?\n \nYou’re Welcome is a three-part installation and dynamic intervention that exposes the histories and narratives of the land occupied by the University of Michigan and UMMA’s neoclassical building\, Alumni Memorial Hall. A large-scale commission from artist Cannupa Hanska Luger on the exterior of UMMA’s building asks the campus and community to reconsider the memories molded into the Museum’s stone — the perspectives that shaped those traditions and the stories that remain unseen in our facade. This artistic interrogation dissects colonialist norms of monument-making\, explores the roles of buildings in upholding selected cultural systems\, and develops new forms of memorials that center Indigenous perspectives and collaboration to tell fuller stories and histories. \n \nLuger communicates stories of 21st-century Indigeneity\, sovereignty\, and anti-colonialism while offering critical cultural analysis through deep engagements with materials\, environments\, and communities. In addition to the exterior commission\, a gallery exhibition places Luger’s works of art in conversation with objects in UMMA’s collection\, allowing for discussion and thinking on long histories of collecting practices\, environmental degradation\, and the afterlife of colonialism. And\, a monument classroom from nonprofit public art and history studio Monument Lab invites the community to come together and examine how historic structures on the University of Michigan’s campus uphold social and cultural systems and narratives.  \n\nLead support for this project is provided by Teiger Foundation\, the U-M Office of the Provost\, the U-M Office of the President\, Erica Gervais Pappendick and Ted Pappendick\, the U-M Marsal Family School of Education\, the U-M Institute for the Humanities\, Michigan Humanities\, and the U-M Arts Initiative.

Collected for each course are objects that address the nature of materiality\, time\, and human interaction in relation to our environments\, our wars\, our relationships\, and our eccentricities. \n \nWorking in collaboration with University faculty\, the works in this exhibition were selected for their capacity to provoke engagement with the guiding questions and themes of their specific courses\, while also offering students inspiration for research and art projects in their areas of study. The exhibition demonstrates some of the diverse and creative ways art plays a central role in learning across the disciplines. It also asks us to consider what we can learn from art objects across an infinite variety of specialties and subject matter.\n \nAs classes begin in Fall of 2021\, you’ll be able to use these pages to explore the collections designed for each course\, dive into the works themselves\, and hear from the professors and students about how they are engaging with art and objects in new ways. Who knows\, maybe you’ll learn something surprising along the way\, too.\n\nLead support for this exhibition is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost\, Erica Gervais Pappendick and Ted Pappendick\, and the Eleanor Noyes Crumpacker Endowment Fund\, and the Oakriver Foundation.\n  UID:86001-21795805@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/86001 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Art,Exhibition,Faculty,Museum,Nature,Research,UMMA LOCATION:Museum of Art - Eleanor Noyes Crumpacker Gallery CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20240223T063241 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20240208T100000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20240208T113000 SUMMARY:Careers / Jobs:Health & Safety Internships With Freeport-McMoRan - Virtual Info Sesssion DESCRIPTION:Freeport-McMoRan’s Health and Safety team is putting on an Internship Showcase and wants you to join us!\n\nHealth & Safety is the heartbeat of our organization-We champion a work environment where everyone goes home safe each day!

Choices about which artists you see in our galleries\, choices about what relevant facts we share about the works\, and choices about what - out of an infinite number of options - we don’t say about them.\n \nPieces in this exhibition were made at a time when the world came to be shaped by the ideologies of colonial expansion and Western domination. And yet\, that history and the stories of those marginalized do not readily appear in the still lives and portraits on display here. By grappling with what is visible and what remains hidden\, we are forced to examine whose stories and histories are prioritized and why.  \n \nIn this online exhibition\, you can explore our efforts to deeply question the Museum’s collection and our own past complicity in favoring colonial voices. In the Museum gallery\, which will open in early 2021\, you’ll be able to experience the changes we’re making to the physical space to highlight a more honest version of European and American history. \n \nBy challenging our own practice\, and continuing to add to what we know and what we write about the works we display\, UMMA tells a more complex and more complete story of this nation - one that unsettles\, and fails to settle for\, simple narratives. \n \n“Invisible things are not necessarily ‘not there’.... Certain absences are so stressed\, so ornate\, so planned\, they call attention to themselves\; arrest us with intentionality and purpose\, like neighborhoods that are defined by the population held away from them.” \n \n— Toni Morrison\n\nLead support for Unsettling Histories: Legacies of Slavery and Colonialism is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost\, the U-M Arts Initiative\, and the Susan and Richard Gutow Endowed Fund.\n  UID:84303-21621203@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/84303 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Art,European,Exhibition,History,Museum,UMMA LOCATION:Museum of Art - European and American Decorative Art CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20240202T161446 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20240208T103000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20240208T120000 SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Change it Up!

A Zoom option is also provided.\n\nSeminar Description:\n\nOptically active and highly coherent emitters in solids are a promising platform for a wide variety of quantum information applications\, particularly quantum memory and other quantum networking tasks. Rare-earth atoms\, in addition to having record long coherence times\, have the added benefit that they can be hosted in a wide range of solid-state materials. We can thus target particular materials (and choose particular rare-earth species and isotopes) that enable certain application-specific functionalities. I will give an overview of this promising field and discuss several ongoing projects with rare-earth atoms in different host materials and configurations. This includes efforts to identify and grow new materials with rare-earth atoms at stoichiometric concentrations in order to reduce disorder-induced inhomogeneous broadening\, as well as photonic integration of rare-earth doped samples to increase the light-atom interaction for practical quantum devices.

This talk will be recorded for later viewing.\n\nAbstract: The goal of the field of topological data analysis (TDA) is to quantitatively encode and measure shape in data using Algebraic Topology. The available tools encompass both algebraic constructions (such as persistence diagrams and Euler characteristics) as well as graph based representations (such as Reeb graphs\, mapper graphs\, and merge trees). Applications of TDA have exploded in recent years\, finding use in a diverse array of domains including plant biology\, neuroscience\, mechanical engineering\, and many more. This increased interest is due to its now extensive theoretical foundation\, and more recently due to the increased availability of more efficient algorithms and software making TDA pipelines more readily accessible to domain scientists. In this talk\, we will review some of the tools available with a particular focus on encoding embedded shapes in d-dimensional Euclidean space (with most of our applications living in the setting of d=2 or 3)\, and for creating metrics between these representations to allow for access to tools such as statistics and machine learning.\n\nBio: Elizabeth Munch is an Associate Professor at Michigan State University with a primary appointment in the Department of Computational Mathematics\, Science\, and Engineering and a secondary appointment in the Department of Mathematics. Her research specializes in Applied Topology and Topological Data Analysis. Liz received her PhD from the Department of Mathematics at Duke University in May 2013. Prior to joining the faculty of Michigan State University\, she was an Assistant Professor in the Department of Mathematics and Statistics at the University at Albany - SUNY\, and a Postdoctoral Fellow at the Institute for Mathematics and its Applications at the University of Minnesota for the 2013-2014 thematic year on applications of topology.

Meghan McCormick and Jason Sachs have been key leaders of a longstanding partnership between researchers (from MDRC\, Harvard Graduate School of Education\, and the University of MIchigan) and the Boston Public Schools. During this time\, they have conducted numerous studies of educational policies and programs. In the fall of 2023\, McCormick and Sachs transitioned from their roles as a researcher and practitioner (respectively) to new positions at the Overdeck Family Foundation and Gates Foundation. The Overdeck Family Foundation is an education funder focused on birth through grade 9. In her new role\, McCormick leads the foundation’s investments in research and evaluation. The Early Learning Solutions program at the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation is focused on providing solutions that help prekindergarten teachers better understand and nurture a child’s learning and development. In Sach’s new role\, he serves as the Deputy Director of Early Learning for the U.S. programs. In this presentation\, Drs. McCormick and Sachs will discuss how their experiences as a researcher and practitioner working in partnership have prepared them for this new role at a foundation. They will also share opportunities they see to use research and evaluation to make a positive impact on education policy and how these opportunities vary across roles.

One of the main factors affecting biodiversity patterns of mammals is the change and fragmentation as a function of anthropogenic disturbance. For this talk about the various approaches\, we have used to improve the understanding of mammal biodiversity patterns with different foci ranging from populations\, communities\, landscapes\, to biogeographical scales. Our approach includes research based on fieldwork\, scientific museum collections\, and statistical and spatial modeling. Biodiversity patterns vary by scale and various scales have specific effects for different species. I will discuss some results from studies in tropical systems and in urban habitats. As a result of our research\, we have found that: 1. The basic natural history and ecology for most of the mammalian fauna is still poor (even for common urban species)\; 2. Generalist mammalian species tend to benefit from disturbance\; however\, not all generalists are the same and these vary within and between habitats\; 3. Habitat edges are important for local biodiversity patterns\; 4. Various types of models and approaches have pros and cons to identify sites important for conservation and or connectivity in poorly studied systems. The need for more fieldwork at different temporal and spatial scales is evident and thus emphasises the importance of field- and museum based research. \n\nWebsite: http://www.noedelasancha.com UID:117462-21839348@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/117462 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:AEM Featured,Basic Science,Biology,Biosciences,Bsbsigns,department of ecology and evolutionary biology,ecology,Ecology & Biology,Ecology And Evolutionary Biology,eeb LOCATION:Biological Sciences Building - 1010 CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20240223T123240 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20240208T150000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20240208T160000 SUMMARY:Careers / Jobs:Innovations at Roblox DESCRIPTION:Join us for our Innovations at Roblox Showcase!

However\, despite the benefits of these imaging modalities\, there is a critical need to develop new and improved technologies that can monitor changes and abnormalities at the cellular\, molecular\, and functional levels. Our research lab is at the forefront of the discipline of Molecular Imaging\, which is a promising field positioned in the intersection of biomedical research and molecular biology. We focus on creating\, implementing\, and developing cutting-edge protein engineering techniques to produce genetically encoded tools for Molecular Imaging. In this presentation\, we will discuss our latest research findings and their contribution to Molecular Imaging.\n\nWe will discuss the development of synthetic and semi-synthetic proteins that can generate contrast through Chemical Exchange Saturation Transfer (CEST)-MRI. We have recently developed new types of proteins that can be efficiently detected through MRI. To achieve this\, we designed a novel machine-learning algorithm based on genetic programming\, that has allowed us to broaden the search space of peptides that can produce CEST MRI contrast. We have then assembled these peptides into a functional protein that can be used as a reporter to track therapeutic cells and gene delivery vehicles in live systems. We are constantly expanding our arsenal of such reporters by seeking and recombining proteins from various organisms. For example\, we are evolving proteins and peptides that bind the lanthanide gadolinium to enhance imaging sensitivity as well as for cleaning medical waste. Another example discussed is a magneto-receptive gene cloned from the glass catfish (Kryptopterus vitreolus). This gene can function as a \"biomagnetic switch\" and can remotely control the activity of enzymes transduced in cells. Inspired by unique mechanisms found in marine organisms\, we aim to develop the next generation of genetically encoded technologies to tackle urgent problems in the biomedical field.\n\nBio:\nAssaf A. Gilad is a Michigan State University Chemical Engineering and Materials Science and Radiology Professor.

Yet little is yet known for certain about these near-primordial young stellar populations\, beyond a range of clues that suggest they were likely profoundly different from their well-studied counterparts in the Milky Way. At long last\, JWST is now allowing us to directly view and begin to piece together the story of the first epochs of star formation and galaxy assembly. I will describe the surprising picture emerging from spectroscopy of these earliest glimpses of galaxies\, including a high incidence of hard ionizing radiation fields and a complex interplay between rapidly-assembling massive black holes and dense highly-clustered star formation deep into the epoch of reionization. Much remains ambiguous in these early spectra\, and I will discuss how detailed observations in the local Universe of metal-poor dwarf galaxies both resolved and unresolved are shedding key light on these high-redshift observations. Finally\, I will outline how facilities coming online in the coming years will simultaneously revolutionize our view of both stellar populations at low metallicity and the first galaxies\; from uncovering the most pristine relics of these earliest times on our cosmic doorstep to resolving galaxies at cosmic dawn into individual clusters and star forming regions.

In this talk\, I will discuss my group’s efforts to enhance the catalytic activity and physical properties of porous materials to meet rising global challenges in clean energy and sustainability. The first half will focus on the synthesis of electrically conductive metal–organic materials. As sources of renewable electricity become increasingly abundant\, new porous architectures that can directly interface with electrical energy are needed. I will detail our efforts to apply structural motifs commonly observed in conjugated carbon nanomaterials to the construction of new 0D\, 1D\, and 2D conjugated metal–organic nanostructures. The second half of the talk will focus on pushing the frontiers of single-site heterogeneous catalysis design. In enzymes\, multiple metal centers and organic functional groups work together to catalyze transformations not achievable by a single component in isolation. My group is applying these bioinspired concepts to the development of new bimetallic and bifunctional heterogeneous catalysts.

Central to my work is a critique of the simultaneous technological and social systems we’re building around ourselves. What are the rules\, what happens when we introduce glitches? I invite participants. To remote control my dates. To be followed. To welcome me in as their human smart home. To attend a party hosted by artificial intelligence. In these interactions\, there is a reciprocal risk taking and vulnerability\, as performer and audience are both challenged to relinquish control\, both implicated. We must formulate our own opinions about the systems that govern our lives. We begin to notice their effects play out on our identity\, relationships\, and society. Each work feels like an attempt to hack my way out of myself and into closeness with others. I am embodying machines\, trying to understand that distance between the algorithm and myself\, the distance between others and me. There’s humor in the breakdown\, and also moments of clarity. Who builds these artificial systems\, what values do they embody? Who is prioritized and who is targeted as race\, gender\, disability\, and class are programmatically encoded? Where are the boundaries around our intimate spaces? In the midst of always on networked interfaces\, what does it mean to be truly present?”\n\n“What do you want me to say?” invites the audience to explore these questions together. The presentation will be followed by an audience Q&A\, moderated by Jeff Nagy.\n\n\nLauren Lee McCarthy (she/they) is an artist examining social relationships in the midst of surveillance\, automation\, and algorithmic living. She is a Creative Capital Awardee\, United States Artists Fellow\, LACMA Art+Tech Lab Grantee\, and has been awarded fellowships and residencies from Sundance\, Eyebeam\, MacDowell\, Pioneer Works\, and Ars Electronica. Her work SOMEONE was awarded the Ars Electronica Golden Nica and the Japan Media Arts Social Impact Award\, and her work LAUREN was awarded the IDFA DocLab Award for Immersive Non-Fiction. Lauren's work has been exhibited internationally\, including the Barbican Centre\, Haus der elektronischen Künste\, SIGGRAPH\, Onassis Cultural Center\, IDFA DocLab\, Science Gallery Dublin\, and Seoul Museum of Art.

Unusually for him\, the purchase was not made with an established antiquarian or collector but with a construction worker that he had been introduced to by an employee of the hotel in which he was staying. The fragments were later identified as belonging to a monument built by the Flavians on the Quirinal. It was then realized that one of the Kelsey pieces joined with one in the Museo Nazionale Romano. The connection was studied in detail by Elaine Gazda and Rita Paris and resulted in exhibitions held in Rome and Ann Arbor. As the circumstances of the finding were clarified\, it became apparent that all the pieces had been stolen from a construction site on the Quirinal. \n\nAs part of a broader review of the ethics of the Kelsey collections (which does not always overlap with their legality)\, the option of repatriation for the Flavian fragments started being internally discussed. The Kelsey spontaneously approached the Direzione Generale Musei at the Ministero della Cultura in Italy to explore the possibility of reuniting the fragments\, perhaps as part of the new overhaul of the Museo Nazionale Romano that is scheduled to begin in 2024. The talk reports on the background and the current status of the process.\n\nNicola (Nic) Terrenato has served as the director of the Gabii Project since 2007 and co-director of the Sant’Omobono Project since 2008. His research interests include the archaeology and architecture of Republican Rome\, early state formation\, Roman imperialism\, and archaeological survey. \n\nThis event will take place in Room 125 of the Kelsey Museum’s Newberry Hall. Light refreshments and food will be provided before the lecture\, which will begin at 6 PM. \n\nFAST (Field Archaeology Series on Thursday) lectures are free and open to the public.

After studying composition\, music theory\, piano\, conducting\, and Africana Studies at Oberlin Conservatory\, she pursued graduate studies at Rutgers University and became one of the leading African American women composers. An activist through the arts\, Okoye creates a body of work that welcomes and affirms both traditional and new audiences.\n\nNkeiru Okoye’s new commission When the Caged Bird Sings premieres on Saturday\, February 10\, 2024 at 7:30 PM at UM’s Hill Auditorium\, as a collaboration between UMS and the U-M School of Music\, Theatre & Dance. When the Caged Bird Sings fuses elements of oratorio\, theater\, and opera in a multi-movement musical ceremony\, which Okoye describes as “a gathering” that invokes the ritual of the concert experience as a ritual of community. Drawing inspiration from the Black church\, it celebrates the spirit of rising above expectations and transforming adversity into triumph. Partly in tribute to the activist and poet laureate Maya Angelou\, the work celebrates the transformative ability of Black women\, commemorating those who have paved a path for future generations in many fields of human endeavor. \n\nTo discuss this new work and her overarching career\, Okoye will be interviewed for this series event by Terrance McKnight\, a commentator\, curator\, writer\, author\, pianist and weekday evening host for WQXR\, New York’s only all-classical music station.\n\nOkoye has been hailed as “gripping” and “evocative” by The New York Times. Okoye won The American Prize in vocal chamber music for her song cycle\, We Met At the Symphony. She is a 2021 Guggenheim Fellow and a 2021-23 Hermitage Artist Retreat Fellow. In 2020\, Detroit Symphony Orchestra appointed her Composer-in-Residence for their \"Classical Roots Festival\,\" featuring her work\, Black Bottom.\n\nOkoye's music has been commissioned\, performed and presented by Philadelphia Orchestra\, the Juilliard School\, Baltimore Symphony\, Opera North UK\, Houston Grand Opera\, the American Opera Project\, Moscow Symphony\, Tanglewood Music Festival\, Virginia Symphony\, Tulsa Opera\, Royal Opera House (London\, UK)\, and many others. Okoye believes in engaging communities through her music.

Future doctors learned their craft from apprenticeships or in medical schools with wildly varying standards. When U-M came to Ann Arbor in 1837 calls for creating its own medical school were widespread\, but it did not open one for another decade. Even so\, it rapidly became the University’s largest department and in 1870 became the first medical school in the country to admit female students. The early medical curriculum was centered around lectures and recitations\; students seeking more practical training were on their own. And Ann Arbor was a small town\, forcing them to travel elsewhere in search of it. Seeking to change this\, in 1869 U-M became the first university in the country to open its own hospital. In so doing transformed medical education both for itself but also for the United States.\n\nJoel Howell received his BS at Lyman Briggs College at Michigan State University\, his MD and residency in internal medicine at the University of Chicago\, and his PhD in the History and Sociology of Science at the University of Pennsylvania. At UM he is the Elizabeth Farrand Professor of the History of Medicine and is a professor in the Department of Internal Medicine in the Medical School\, in the Department of History in LSA\, and in the Department of Health Management & Policy in the School of Public Health. His historical research attempts to understand when (and why) we have become so convinced that the key to better medicine will come through technology and science\, including projects in Brazil and Ethiopia. He has published extensively on the history of the University of Michigan. He is also the founding Director of the Medical Arts Program\, which offers opportunities for medical students and residents to attend arts events and meet with artists\, as well as to create art themselves (including both music and painting).

Nite Bjuti has recently played Nublu Jazz Fest\, NYC Winter JazzFest\, WBGO live broadcast performance\, and Jazz at Lincoln Center. Internationally\, they envision their music from concerts at electronic and jazz music venues\, museums\, cinema and dance and visual art installations.

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.

Pinto (School of Social Work) invites audiences to take part in an exhibition that examines his embodied gender states based on his intersecting childhood traumas and life experiences. In \"My Gender States\,\" Pinto shares his deep and abiding grief related to the childhood death of his sister and the subsequent gender embodiments that ensued stemming from the belief that he was his deceased sister. \n\nUsing autoethnography\, Pinto created a one-person play (\"Marília\,\" 2015) and site-specific installation performance (\"The Realm of the Dead\,\" 2022). These works explore the intersecting and shaping layers of childhood traumas\, gender states\, and his life experience—a story of the struggles\, fears\, and accomplishments he experienced as an immigrant to the United States. In \"Realm\,\" audiences circulated around 25 assemblage sculptures created from vintage suitcases and trunks that evoked the cemetery where Pinto’s sister was buried and the literal and figurative baggage that he\, a queer immigrant\, carried with him. \"My Gender States\" is a selection of materials\, images\, and texts from \"Marília\" and \"Realm\" curated to more closely examine the themes of gender and sexuality in these works. Collected are portrayals of Pinto’s gender states\, gender confusion\, gender embodiments\, gender doubt\, and reactions to gender stigma. \n\nRogério M. Pinto (Brazilian\, American\, b. 1965\, Belo Horizonte\, Brazil) is a University Diversity Social Transformation Professor\; Berit Ingersoll-Dayton Collegiate Professor of Social Work\; and Professor of Theatre and Drama\, School of Music\, Theatre & Dance\, at the University of Michigan. Pinto uses art-based methods to conduct community-engaged research in the United States and Brazil.\n\nThe photographs used in \"My Gender States\" are by Emerson Granillo (American\, b. 1987)\; David Newton (American\, b. 1993)\; and Nicholas Williams (American\, b. 1994). The \"Realm\" assemblages featured in \"My Gender States\" were conceived by Pinto and designed by him\, in collaboration with Sarah Tanner. \n\n\"My Gender States\" is on display in the Lane Hall Exhibit Space (first floor\, 204 S State St) from January 23\, to August 13\, 2024. The exhibit is free and open to the public\, M-F\, 9am-4pm.\n\nHosted by the Institute for Research on Women and Gender and the Women’s and Gender Studies Department.

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).

Whether designing furniture or developing the ideas for sculpture\, the process has always been the same. Ideas begin as\nscribbled images that are then stretched and refined with CAD software. At its core\, much of the work studies the manipulation of simple geometry. Dunn looks at the form from different forced perspectives – exploding\, augmenting\, slicing\, repeating\, and lighting. This body of work is a study of perception\, sympathy\, hierarchy\, and reality. The “We Are Virus” series is an adaptation from an initial design where it continued to evolve and adapt through manipulation of parts and scale.\n\nPeter Dunn received his BFA from Wayne State University and MFA from University of Michigan.

His new work—created for his exhibition at the Institute for the Humanities Gallery—is personal and abstract. Started as an attempt to paint for himself\, away from the center of things and off at the edges\, they are from the spaces of private thought that slip into existence and just as easily slip away. They come from an internal conversation and contact with the world. \"When I am with them\,\" Riley explains\, \"I feel a tension between the spaces in the works being present but unnamed. The paintings allow me to observe myself looking. I am acutely aware of time.

Make Yourself At Home.\n \nA Gathering brings together the newest works of art to enter UMMA’s collection — many on display here for the first time. \n \nAs a free\, public museum\, UMMA staff takes care of art for the benefit of the community and society at large. The works on view in this exhibition\, all brought into the Museum between 2019 and the present\, shows how institutions like UMMA are becoming more permeable to societal challenges\, and more nimble in responding to them in service to all in their communities. In this exhibition you will find works that reflect on how global migrations\, race\, gender\, and ecological change shape the way we engage with the world and inform our visions for the future.\n \nThis collection of artistic engagements with issues give us tools to envision who we want to be as individuals\, as a museum\, and as a society\, connected to one another across space and experience.\n \nSo gather here to take in these latest works of art brought here for you. Gather here to be engulfed in their forms and meanings\, to discuss their takes\, to learn\, to disagree. Gather to relax\, make a friend\, drink a coffee\, finish the daily Wordle.

Written across the walls above and around the memorial\, a statement proclaims Anishinaabe rights to the land we stand on: “You are on Anishinaabe Land.”  \n \nPresented alongside are paintings of imagined decolonized landscapes and a symbolic cache of provisions. Future Cache implicitly asks those who have benefited from the legacies of colonization to consider where they stand and where to go from here and seeks to foster a sense of belonging for displaced Indigenous peoples fighting for restitution.\n\nSpecial thanks to the Cheboiganing (Burt Lake) Band of Ottawa and Chippewa Indians\, Margaret Noodin\, and Richard A.

DESCRIPTION:Care in Uncertain Times\n \nAs crises of public health\, economic instability\, authoritarian regimes\, racial injustice\, and climate change spread around the globe\, millions are experiencing distress\, conflict\, uncertainty\, and vulnerability. This troubling combination of experiences is nothing new for Cambodians. Between 1975-1979\, when the Khmer Rouge ruled Cambodia\, about a quarter of the country’s populations died of infectious diseases\, weapon wounds\, and malnutrition.\n \nThis exhibition brings together more than 80 works of art spanning a millennium to present how the visual culture of Cambodia and its diaspora has evolved in the face of cultural upheaval. Showcasing works from worldwide collections\, including those from some of the foremost members of the Cambodian contemporary art scene\, Angkor Complex allows viewers to encounter the still-fresh scars of a genocide and critically appreciate the strategies evolved to nurture resilience in trying times.\n\nLead support for this exhibition is provided by the U-M Office of the Provost\, U-M Office of the President\, National Endowment for the Arts\, Michigan Arts and Culture Council\, Eleanor Noyes Crumpacker Endowment Fund\, and U-M Ross School of Business.\n  UID:114750-21833421@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/114750 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Art,Culture,Exhibition,Museum,Public Health,UMMA LOCATION:Museum of Art - A.

How have their perspectives shaped the enduring stories of our history and visions of the past?\n \nYou’re Welcome is a three-part installation and dynamic intervention that exposes the histories and narratives of the land occupied by the University of Michigan and UMMA’s neoclassical building\, Alumni Memorial Hall. A large-scale commission from artist Cannupa Hanska Luger on the exterior of UMMA’s building asks the campus and community to reconsider the memories molded into the Museum’s stone — the perspectives that shaped those traditions and the stories that remain unseen in our facade. This artistic interrogation dissects colonialist norms of monument-making\, explores the roles of buildings in upholding selected cultural systems\, and develops new forms of memorials that center Indigenous perspectives and collaboration to tell fuller stories and histories. \n \nLuger communicates stories of 21st-century Indigeneity\, sovereignty\, and anti-colonialism while offering critical cultural analysis through deep engagements with materials\, environments\, and communities. In addition to the exterior commission\, a gallery exhibition places Luger’s works of art in conversation with objects in UMMA’s collection\, allowing for discussion and thinking on long histories of collecting practices\, environmental degradation\, and the afterlife of colonialism. And\, a monument classroom from nonprofit public art and history studio Monument Lab invites the community to come together and examine how historic structures on the University of Michigan’s campus uphold social and cultural systems and narratives.  \n\nLead support for this project is provided by Teiger Foundation\, the U-M Office of the Provost\, the U-M Office of the President\, Erica Gervais Pappendick and Ted Pappendick\, the U-M Marsal Family School of Education\, the U-M Institute for the Humanities\, Michigan Humanities\, and the U-M Arts Initiative.

Collected for each course are objects that address the nature of materiality\, time\, and human interaction in relation to our environments\, our wars\, our relationships\, and our eccentricities. \n \nWorking in collaboration with University faculty\, the works in this exhibition were selected for their capacity to provoke engagement with the guiding questions and themes of their specific courses\, while also offering students inspiration for research and art projects in their areas of study. The exhibition demonstrates some of the diverse and creative ways art plays a central role in learning across the disciplines. It also asks us to consider what we can learn from art objects across an infinite variety of specialties and subject matter.\n \nAs classes begin in Fall of 2021\, you’ll be able to use these pages to explore the collections designed for each course\, dive into the works themselves\, and hear from the professors and students about how they are engaging with art and objects in new ways.

In this talk\, I will present tools I have developed for statistical inference and decision-making in light of these social interactions.\n(1) Inference: I will talk about estimation of causal effects in the presence of interference. In causal inference\, the term “interference” refers to a situation where\, due to interactions between units\, the treatment assigned to one unit affects the observed outcomes of others. I will discuss large-sample asymptotics for treatment effect estimation under network interference where the interference graph is a random draw from a graphon. When targeting the direct effect\, we show that popular estimators in our setting are considerably more accurate than existing results suggest. Meanwhile\, when targeting the indirect effect\, we propose a consistent estimator in a setting where no other consistent estimators are currently available.\n(2) Decision-Making: Turning to reinforcement learning amid social interactions\, I will focus on a problem inspired by a specific class of mobile health trials involving both target individuals and their care partners. These trials feature two types of interventions: those targeting individuals directly and those aimed at improving the relationship between the individual and their care partner. I will present an online reinforcement learning algorithm designed to personalize the delivery of these interventions. The algorithm's effectiveness is demonstrated through simulation studies conducted on a realistic test bed\, which was constructed using data from a prior mobile health study.

Choices about which artists you see in our galleries\, choices about what relevant facts we share about the works\, and choices about what - out of an infinite number of options - we don’t say about them.\n \nPieces in this exhibition were made at a time when the world came to be shaped by the ideologies of colonial expansion and Western domination. And yet\, that history and the stories of those marginalized do not readily appear in the still lives and portraits on display here. By grappling with what is visible and what remains hidden\, we are forced to examine whose stories and histories are prioritized and why.  \n \nIn this online exhibition\, you can explore our efforts to deeply question the Museum’s collection and our own past complicity in favoring colonial voices. In the Museum gallery\, which will open in early 2021\, you’ll be able to experience the changes we’re making to the physical space to highlight a more honest version of European and American history. \n \nBy challenging our own practice\, and continuing to add to what we know and what we write about the works we display\, UMMA tells a more complex and more complete story of this nation - one that unsettles\, and fails to settle for\, simple narratives. \n \n“Invisible things are not necessarily ‘not there’.... Certain absences are so stressed\, so ornate\, so planned\, they call attention to themselves\; arrest us with intentionality and purpose\, like neighborhoods that are defined by the population held away from them.” \n \n— Toni Morrison\n\nLead support for Unsettling Histories: Legacies of Slavery and Colonialism is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost\, the U-M Arts Initiative\, and the Susan and Richard Gutow Endowed Fund.\n  UID:84303-21621204@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/84303 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Art,European,Exhibition,History,Museum,UMMA LOCATION:Museum of Art - European and American Decorative Art CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20240212T160421 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20240209T110000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20240209T170000 SUMMARY:Exhibition:2024 Undergraduate Juried Exhibition DESCRIPTION:The Stamps School’s annual Undergraduate Juried Exhibition is a showcase of outstanding work produced by Stamps undergraduate students taking place at Stamps Gallery from February 9-24\, 2024. \nA highly anticipated Stamps School tradition\, the objectives of the Undergraduate Juried Exhibition are: \nTo encourage and inspire undergraduates to create high-caliber and ambitious artwork.To create an opportunity where all undergraduates can develop the experience\, knowledge\, and skills in preparing an application for a juried exhibition.To foster a vibrant culture of participating in exhibitions and public programs at Stamps School.

Zoom registration at https://myumi.ch/gRVG3\n\nBuddhist monasteries in Luang Prabang\, Laos\, have long been training grounds for traditional artists and craftsmen. Many of the monks were artists and craftsmen who maintained the buildings\, mural paintings\, and stencils at their respective monasteries. The Communist Revolution in 1975 interrupted this crucial means of conservation. This lecture looks at a sustainable art preservation project spearheaded by Tiao Nithakhong Somsanith. Somsanith was born in 1958 and is an award-winning Laotian artist whose Phra Bot\, Buddhist embroideries in gold and silver thread\, are found as offerings in monasteries in Laos and Thailand. In addition\, Somsanith’s embroideries are also collected by major museums and art galleries in Europe and North America. In 2010\, Somsanith initiated an art stenciling project that teaches monks and novices to repair the faded gold stencils in their monasteries. Using locally made rice paper\, Somsanith traces the old\, stenciled patterns and stories narrated on the mural paintings in monasteries. He then teaches monks and novices artistic restoration and preservation skills. Boreth Ly examines the effectiveness of this art project in helping to preserve traditional Buddhist arts in the homeland and diasporas. She argues that the sustainability of Somsanith’s teaching demonstrates that it is monks who have been and remain the guardians of the arts and architecture of their monasteries. She further argue that this art project shows how a contemporary artist like Somsanith\, whose knowledge is steeped in traditional Buddhist arts\, is a great preserver of tradition while also demonstrating great innovations in his artistic practice.\n\nBorn in the cosmopolitan village of Phnom Penh\, Cambodia\, Boreth Ly is an associate professor of Southeast Asian art history and visual culture at the University of California\, Santa Cruz. She coedited with Nora A. Taylor\, Modern and Contemporary Art of Southeast Asia (2012). In addition\, she has written numerous articles and essays on the arts and films of Southeast Asia and its diaspora.\n\nAcademically trained as an art historian\, Ly employs multidisciplinary methods and theories in her writings and analysis\, depending on the subject matter. Last\, Ly’s research focuses on the intersection between memory and historical trauma. She authored\, \"Traces of Trauma: Cambodian Visual Culture and National Identity in the Aftermath of Genocide\" (University of Hawai’i Press\, 2022).\n\nIf there is anything we can do to make this event accessible to you\, please contact us at cseas@umich.edu.

A Zoom option is also provided.\n\nSeminar Description:\nQuantum sensors hold promise for improved sensing of time\, electromagnetic fields\, and forces\; however\, the inherent probabilistic nature of quantum mechanics introduces uncertainty that can limit sensor precision. We can hope to overcome this uncertainty by engineering entanglement — in other words\, by creating correlated behavior — in atomic systems. Unfortunately\, in practice\, introducing and controlling these correlations is limited by the local nature of interactions on many promising sensing platforms\, including optical tweezer clocks and solid-state magnetometers. In this talk\, I will discuss how we can use temporal control over local Rydberg interactions to extend interaction coherence times and minimize atomic loss in an array of atomic ensembles. With these improvements\, we generate metrologically useful entanglement across several spatially separated ensembles in parallel [1]. This work demonstrates both the potential of local interactions to enhance the precision of optical clocks\, and the power of spatiotemporal control to enhance and expand the capabilities of atomic systems.\n[1] J.A.

The idea of collecting vouchers has become controversial with ecologists. However\, the value of museum collections to ecology has been overseen and underutilized. Among the challenges of using museum collections is that ecological inference requires large sample sizes. The application of museum collections to ecological applications can greatly expand the types of questions researchers can study. Museum vouchers are particularly important in the tropics where many species are still poorly known. Vouchers can be valuable for studies of species level variation and adaptation\, populations\, and biodiversity. From the perspective of biodiversity\, museum specimens are extremely important for expanding the quantification of functional traits. Furthermore\, surprisingly the most abundant species tend to be poorly represented in collections\, which is the example for many urban species. Given the current rates of human driven habitat changes in tropical regions\, the expansion of urbanization worldwide\, and climate change\, museum specimens will become important for long term ecological studies of a changing world. Unfortunately\, the number of specimens for most species are still reactively low especially\, in particular for different age groups\, along landscape level gradients\, and even for common and abundant species. \nSPEAKER WEBSITE: http://www.noedelasancha.com UID:117707-21839858@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/117707 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:AEM Featured,biodiversity,Biology,Biosciences,Bsbsigns,department of ecology and evolutionary biology,ecology,Ecology & Biology,Ecology And Evolutionary Biology,eeb,evolution,evolutionary biology,Herbarium,Museum Of Zoology,Research Museums Center,Sfi LOCATION:Research Museums Center - Demo Room CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20240220T140314 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20240209T140000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20240209T150000 SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Expanding on Birthing Justice: A Book Panel for \"Birthing Justice: Black Women\, Pregnant\, and Childbirth\" DESCRIPTION:The book panel will include a few of the new contributors: TaNefer Camara\, Linda Jones\, and Dr. Sayida Peprah-Wilson.

We will further discuss algorithms for the analysis of oscillatory wearable data such as heart rate and body temperature\, and the application of these techniques to varying populations. Through this framework we see changes to physiologically-relevant features at different times around COVID-19 symptom onset\, enhancing our understanding of disease progression and speaking to the early detection potential. These projects aim to utilize mathematical and computational tools to generate meaningful additions to our understanding of circadian rhythms\, personal health\, and disease in the real-world.\n\nContact: S.

And then the universal elliptic curve is 2-dimensional\, so you can compactify whatever you want and choose the minimal resolution. I'll try to convince you that this is bad and explain how you can do better in a systematic way.

Two seemingly contradictory resolutions are available in the literature. On one hand\, it has been argued that higher-derivative effects create a string-sized extremal horizon. \nOn the other hand\, it has been argued that before such a small black hole even forms\, there is a transition to a winding condensate and eventually a gas of strings. We show that\, with some modifications\, these two perspectives are compatible\, but correspond to different observables.\nA rotating non-extremal black hole solution with higher-derivative corrections contributes to the gravitational path integral for the index\,\nwhile the transition to the gas of strings happens for the thermal partition function. Along the way\, we extend the recently developed ``new attractor mechanism\" by incorporating higher-derivative corrections. We also use effective theory to rule out the possibility of a string-size black hole as the correct description of the near-extremal microstates.

The mirror models of these spaces arise through Langlands duality\, and hence use the corresponding minuscule representations. The weight spaces of these representations can be described using minuscule posets\, so it is not surprising that the combinatorics of these posets govern the various objects appearing.

As such\, scholars across disciplines have been devoted to investigating how race and ethnicity feature in every aspect of social and political life. The purpose of I-REP (Interdisciplinary Workshop in Race\, Ethnicity and Politics) is to provide a space for scholars whose research centers race\, ethnicity and politics across a number of fields to receive critical feedback on the early stages of their work (especially graduate students)\, build community with other researchers who share similar interests and offer an opportunity for participants to collaborate on a joint research project within the working group.

The ancient mineralizing fluid is characterized by O-H isotopic measurements of Ar-dated illitic clays\, and is dominated by surface derived fluid sources that match modeled Pangea meteoric fluids. In addition\, we find that Midcontinent mineralizing fluid chemistry changes away from the orogenic front\, consistent with a rain shadow effect from the high elevation Appalachian orogen.\n\nLocal and far‐field stresses from late Paleozoic continent‐continent collisional orogeny and exhumation created local permeability pathways for surface fluid infiltration\, altering the hydrologic architecture of the brittle upper crust. These results also challenge the popular hypothesis of tectonically-forced\, lateral fluid flow from the Appalachian orogen into the Midcontinent foreland (\"squeegee hypothesis\") that was associated with widespread paleomagnetic remagnetization and ore mineralization.

Sequeira will explore a scandal between subordinate medical officers and the colonial prison establishment centered around the latter’s attempt to suppress scientific studies on the scope and etiology of homosexuality in prisons. Focusing on Calcutta (and the Andaman Islands settlement) prisons\, the talk will show how prison medical officers’ experiments on and desire to correct subaltern sexual “deviants” helped reconstitute the architecture of the prisons they administered from association-based prisons to cellular-based ones. Second\, it will show how such investigations shifted from foregrounding anatomical observation to documenting prisoners’ voices to frame Indian homosexuality as a problem of habitual “native” racial and cultural excess. In the process\, however\, these studies negated prisoners’ individuality and inflicted both psychological and physical forms of trauma on them—provoking repeated assaults on prison officers’ lives. Finally\, it will document how the state prevented the circulation of such studies\, anticipating outcry about exposing Indian political prisoners to potential sexual abuse. The talk will thus theorize an imperial will-to-ignorance as an alternative epistemology for understanding Indian\, particularly subaltern sexual life\, in contrast to the European metropolitan paradigm of the will-to-knowledge.\n \n Rovel Sequeira (he/they) is an LSA Collegiate Postdoctoral Fellow and incoming Assistant Professor of Women’s and Gender Studies at the University of Michigan. They are affiliated with the Institute for Research on Women and Gender\, where they co-direct the Global South Gender and Sexuality (GS2) Collective. Rovel is currently working on a book manuscript on sexual scientific histories and fiction in India\, tentatively titled The Empire and its Deviants: Global Sexology and the Racial Grammar of Sex in Colonial India. Their work has been published in Modernism/modernity\, Signs: A Journal of Women in Culture and Society\, GLQ: A Journal of Lesbian and Gay Studies\, and History of the Human Sciences\, among other venues.\n \n *Made possible with the generous support of the Title VI grant from the U.S. Department of Education.*\n\nIf there is anything we can do to make this event accessible to you\, please contact us.

Dolgopyat pioneered a method rooted in the thermodynamic formalism that settled the conjecture for surfaces. Soon after\, Liverani developed an intrinsic functional analytic analog of Dolgopyat's method allowing to settle the case of Liouville measures in higher dimensions\, while simultaneously producing more information on the rates of mixing. Despite these important breakthroughs\, the conjecture remains open in general\, even in the case of measures of maximal entropy. In this talk\, we will discuss a method for extending the functional analytic approach to deal with non-smooth invariant measures in a concrete algebraic setting. The key ingredient is a reduction of the problem to one regarding Fourier transforms of dynamically defined measures which we address using new machinery in additive combinatorics. The talk will not assume prior knowledge of these topics.

It's a damn noisy contraption. Constantly running. No 'off' switch\,\" says Ellis Paul. After growing up on a potato farm in northern Maine\, Ellis started writing songs while he was attending Boston College on a track scholarship and was laid up for several months with an injury. He's often called the quintessential New England songwriter\, and he's got more than a dozen of Boston Music Awards to prove it. Ellis's passionate\, literate character sketches\, delivered in a soaring\, lyrical voice\, have influenced a generation of folk songwriters toward the shamelessly poetic. The Boston Globe calls Ellis \"literate\, provocative\, urbanely romantic.\" Whatever you call him\, he's one of the major songwriters of our time. Says Absolute Punk\, which you might not think would be reviewing Ellis's albums: \"Everyone can relate to Ellis Paul and his songs\, and for that reason he continues to be a national treasure.\" Ellis comes to Michigan with a new release\, “55.”\n\nPlease visit https://mutotix.umich.edu/4498/4499 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).

DESCRIPTION:Care in Uncertain Times\n \nAs crises of public health\, economic instability\, authoritarian regimes\, racial injustice\, and climate change spread around the globe\, millions are experiencing distress\, conflict\, uncertainty\, and vulnerability. This troubling combination of experiences is nothing new for Cambodians. Between 1975-1979\, when the Khmer Rouge ruled Cambodia\, about a quarter of the country’s populations died of infectious diseases\, weapon wounds\, and malnutrition.\n \nThis exhibition brings together more than 80 works of art spanning a millennium to present how the visual culture of Cambodia and its diaspora has evolved in the face of cultural upheaval. Showcasing works from worldwide collections\, including those from some of the foremost members of the Cambodian contemporary art scene\, Angkor Complex allows viewers to encounter the still-fresh scars of a genocide and critically appreciate the strategies evolved to nurture resilience in trying times.\n\nLead support for this exhibition is provided by the U-M Office of the Provost\, U-M Office of the President\, National Endowment for the Arts\, Michigan Arts and Culture Council\, Eleanor Noyes Crumpacker Endowment Fund\, and U-M Ross School of Business.\n  UID:114750-21833422@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/114750 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Art,Culture,Exhibition,Museum,Public Health,UMMA LOCATION:Museum of Art - A.

How have their perspectives shaped the enduring stories of our history and visions of the past?\n \nYou’re Welcome is a three-part installation and dynamic intervention that exposes the histories and narratives of the land occupied by the University of Michigan and UMMA’s neoclassical building\, Alumni Memorial Hall. A large-scale commission from artist Cannupa Hanska Luger on the exterior of UMMA’s building asks the campus and community to reconsider the memories molded into the Museum’s stone — the perspectives that shaped those traditions and the stories that remain unseen in our facade. This artistic interrogation dissects colonialist norms of monument-making\, explores the roles of buildings in upholding selected cultural systems\, and develops new forms of memorials that center Indigenous perspectives and collaboration to tell fuller stories and histories. \n \nLuger communicates stories of 21st-century Indigeneity\, sovereignty\, and anti-colonialism while offering critical cultural analysis through deep engagements with materials\, environments\, and communities. In addition to the exterior commission\, a gallery exhibition places Luger’s works of art in conversation with objects in UMMA’s collection\, allowing for discussion and thinking on long histories of collecting practices\, environmental degradation\, and the afterlife of colonialism. And\, a monument classroom from nonprofit public art and history studio Monument Lab invites the community to come together and examine how historic structures on the University of Michigan’s campus uphold social and cultural systems and narratives.  \n\nLead support for this project is provided by Teiger Foundation\, the U-M Office of the Provost\, the U-M Office of the President\, Erica Gervais Pappendick and Ted Pappendick\, the U-M Marsal Family School of Education\, the U-M Institute for the Humanities\, Michigan Humanities\, and the U-M Arts Initiative.

Collected for each course are objects that address the nature of materiality\, time\, and human interaction in relation to our environments\, our wars\, our relationships\, and our eccentricities. \n \nWorking in collaboration with University faculty\, the works in this exhibition were selected for their capacity to provoke engagement with the guiding questions and themes of their specific courses\, while also offering students inspiration for research and art projects in their areas of study. The exhibition demonstrates some of the diverse and creative ways art plays a central role in learning across the disciplines. It also asks us to consider what we can learn from art objects across an infinite variety of specialties and subject matter.\n \nAs classes begin in Fall of 2021\, you’ll be able to use these pages to explore the collections designed for each course\, dive into the works themselves\, and hear from the professors and students about how they are engaging with art and objects in new ways.

Choices about which artists you see in our galleries\, choices about what relevant facts we share about the works\, and choices about what - out of an infinite number of options - we don’t say about them.\n \nPieces in this exhibition were made at a time when the world came to be shaped by the ideologies of colonial expansion and Western domination. And yet\, that history and the stories of those marginalized do not readily appear in the still lives and portraits on display here. By grappling with what is visible and what remains hidden\, we are forced to examine whose stories and histories are prioritized and why.  \n \nIn this online exhibition\, you can explore our efforts to deeply question the Museum’s collection and our own past complicity in favoring colonial voices. In the Museum gallery\, which will open in early 2021\, you’ll be able to experience the changes we’re making to the physical space to highlight a more honest version of European and American history. \n \nBy challenging our own practice\, and continuing to add to what we know and what we write about the works we display\, UMMA tells a more complex and more complete story of this nation - one that unsettles\, and fails to settle for\, simple narratives. \n \n“Invisible things are not necessarily ‘not there’.... Certain absences are so stressed\, so ornate\, so planned\, they call attention to themselves\; arrest us with intentionality and purpose\, like neighborhoods that are defined by the population held away from them.” \n \n— Toni Morrison\n\nLead support for Unsettling Histories: Legacies of Slavery and Colonialism is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost\, the U-M Arts Initiative\, and the Susan and Richard Gutow Endowed Fund.\n  UID:84303-21621205@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/84303 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Art,European,Exhibition,History,Museum,UMMA LOCATION:Museum of Art - European and American Decorative Art CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20250116T112123 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20240210T113000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20240210T121500 SUMMARY:Presentation:Lunar New Year Shows DESCRIPTION:Join us for a live presentation exploring a variety of Lunar New Year topics.

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).

The works on view in this exhibition\, all brought into the Museum between 2019 and the present\, shows how institutions like UMMA are becoming more permeable to societal challenges\, and more nimble in responding to them in service to all in their communities. In this exhibition you will find works that reflect on how global migrations\, race\, gender\, and ecological change shape the way we engage with the world and inform our visions for the future.\n \nThis collection of artistic engagements with issues give us tools to envision who we want to be as individuals\, as a museum\, and as a society\, connected to one another across space and experience.\n \nSo gather here to take in these latest works of art brought here for you. Gather here to be engulfed in their forms and meanings\, to discuss their takes\, to learn\, to disagree. Gather to relax\, make a friend\, drink a coffee\, finish the daily Wordle.

Written across the walls above and around the memorial\, a statement proclaims Anishinaabe rights to the land we stand on: “You are on Anishinaabe Land.”  \n \nPresented alongside are paintings of imagined decolonized landscapes and a symbolic cache of provisions. Future Cache implicitly asks those who have benefited from the legacies of colonization to consider where they stand and where to go from here and seeks to foster a sense of belonging for displaced Indigenous peoples fighting for restitution.\n\nSpecial thanks to the Cheboiganing (Burt Lake) Band of Ottawa and Chippewa Indians\, Margaret Noodin\, and Richard A.

DESCRIPTION:Care in Uncertain Times\n \nAs crises of public health\, economic instability\, authoritarian regimes\, racial injustice\, and climate change spread around the globe\, millions are experiencing distress\, conflict\, uncertainty\, and vulnerability. This troubling combination of experiences is nothing new for Cambodians. Between 1975-1979\, when the Khmer Rouge ruled Cambodia\, about a quarter of the country’s populations died of infectious diseases\, weapon wounds\, and malnutrition.\n \nThis exhibition brings together more than 80 works of art spanning a millennium to present how the visual culture of Cambodia and its diaspora has evolved in the face of cultural upheaval. Showcasing works from worldwide collections\, including those from some of the foremost members of the Cambodian contemporary art scene\, Angkor Complex allows viewers to encounter the still-fresh scars of a genocide and critically appreciate the strategies evolved to nurture resilience in trying times.\n\nLead support for this exhibition is provided by the U-M Office of the Provost\, U-M Office of the President\, National Endowment for the Arts\, Michigan Arts and Culture Council\, Eleanor Noyes Crumpacker Endowment Fund\, and U-M Ross School of Business.\n  UID:114750-21833423@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/114750 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Art,Culture,Exhibition,Museum,Public Health,UMMA LOCATION:Museum of Art - A.

How have their perspectives shaped the enduring stories of our history and visions of the past?\n \nYou’re Welcome is a three-part installation and dynamic intervention that exposes the histories and narratives of the land occupied by the University of Michigan and UMMA’s neoclassical building\, Alumni Memorial Hall. A large-scale commission from artist Cannupa Hanska Luger on the exterior of UMMA’s building asks the campus and community to reconsider the memories molded into the Museum’s stone — the perspectives that shaped those traditions and the stories that remain unseen in our facade. This artistic interrogation dissects colonialist norms of monument-making\, explores the roles of buildings in upholding selected cultural systems\, and develops new forms of memorials that center Indigenous perspectives and collaboration to tell fuller stories and histories. \n \nLuger communicates stories of 21st-century Indigeneity\, sovereignty\, and anti-colonialism while offering critical cultural analysis through deep engagements with materials\, environments\, and communities. In addition to the exterior commission\, a gallery exhibition places Luger’s works of art in conversation with objects in UMMA’s collection\, allowing for discussion and thinking on long histories of collecting practices\, environmental degradation\, and the afterlife of colonialism. And\, a monument classroom from nonprofit public art and history studio Monument Lab invites the community to come together and examine how historic structures on the University of Michigan’s campus uphold social and cultural systems and narratives.  \n\nLead support for this project is provided by Teiger Foundation\, the U-M Office of the Provost\, the U-M Office of the President\, Erica Gervais Pappendick and Ted Pappendick\, the U-M Marsal Family School of Education\, the U-M Institute for the Humanities\, Michigan Humanities\, and the U-M Arts Initiative.

Collected for each course are objects that address the nature of materiality\, time\, and human interaction in relation to our environments\, our wars\, our relationships\, and our eccentricities. \n \nWorking in collaboration with University faculty\, the works in this exhibition were selected for their capacity to provoke engagement with the guiding questions and themes of their specific courses\, while also offering students inspiration for research and art projects in their areas of study. The exhibition demonstrates some of the diverse and creative ways art plays a central role in learning across the disciplines. It also asks us to consider what we can learn from art objects across an infinite variety of specialties and subject matter.\n \nAs classes begin in Fall of 2021\, you’ll be able to use these pages to explore the collections designed for each course\, dive into the works themselves\, and hear from the professors and students about how they are engaging with art and objects in new ways.

Choices about which artists you see in our galleries\, choices about what relevant facts we share about the works\, and choices about what - out of an infinite number of options - we don’t say about them.\n \nPieces in this exhibition were made at a time when the world came to be shaped by the ideologies of colonial expansion and Western domination. And yet\, that history and the stories of those marginalized do not readily appear in the still lives and portraits on display here. By grappling with what is visible and what remains hidden\, we are forced to examine whose stories and histories are prioritized and why.  \n \nIn this online exhibition\, you can explore our efforts to deeply question the Museum’s collection and our own past complicity in favoring colonial voices. In the Museum gallery\, which will open in early 2021\, you’ll be able to experience the changes we’re making to the physical space to highlight a more honest version of European and American history. \n \nBy challenging our own practice\, and continuing to add to what we know and what we write about the works we display\, UMMA tells a more complex and more complete story of this nation - one that unsettles\, and fails to settle for\, simple narratives. \n \n“Invisible things are not necessarily ‘not there’.... Certain absences are so stressed\, so ornate\, so planned\, they call attention to themselves\; arrest us with intentionality and purpose\, like neighborhoods that are defined by the population held away from them.” \n \n— Toni Morrison\n\nLead support for Unsettling Histories: Legacies of Slavery and Colonialism is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost\, the U-M Arts Initiative\, and the Susan and Richard Gutow Endowed Fund.\n  UID:84303-21621206@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/84303 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Art,European,Exhibition,History,Museum,UMMA LOCATION:Museum of Art - European and American Decorative Art CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20240111T092357 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20240211T113000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20240211T121500 SUMMARY:Presentation:Sea Monsters DESCRIPTION:The film follows a curious and adventurous Dolichorhynchops – familiarly known as a ‘dolly’ – as she travels through the most dangerous oceans in history.

But Thomas' remarkable manual dexterity and intellectual acumen confound Blalock's expectations\, and Thomas rapidly becomes indispensable as a research partner to Blalock in his forays into heart surgery. \nVivien Thomas was a carpenter that wanted to be a doctor\, unable to attend college he works for a real doctor as a janitor. Realizing what this young man is capable of the doctor gives him real tasks and as a team they go to conquer what other people though impossible.

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.

Pinto (School of Social Work) invites audiences to take part in an exhibition that examines his embodied gender states based on his intersecting childhood traumas and life experiences. In \"My Gender States\,\" Pinto shares his deep and abiding grief related to the childhood death of his sister and the subsequent gender embodiments that ensued stemming from the belief that he was his deceased sister. \n\nUsing autoethnography\, Pinto created a one-person play (\"Marília\,\" 2015) and site-specific installation performance (\"The Realm of the Dead\,\" 2022). These works explore the intersecting and shaping layers of childhood traumas\, gender states\, and his life experience—a story of the struggles\, fears\, and accomplishments he experienced as an immigrant to the United States. In \"Realm\,\" audiences circulated around 25 assemblage sculptures created from vintage suitcases and trunks that evoked the cemetery where Pinto’s sister was buried and the literal and figurative baggage that he\, a queer immigrant\, carried with him. \"My Gender States\" is a selection of materials\, images\, and texts from \"Marília\" and \"Realm\" curated to more closely examine the themes of gender and sexuality in these works. Collected are portrayals of Pinto’s gender states\, gender confusion\, gender embodiments\, gender doubt\, and reactions to gender stigma. \n\nRogério M. Pinto (Brazilian\, American\, b. 1965\, Belo Horizonte\, Brazil) is a University Diversity Social Transformation Professor\; Berit Ingersoll-Dayton Collegiate Professor of Social Work\; and Professor of Theatre and Drama\, School of Music\, Theatre & Dance\, at the University of Michigan. Pinto uses art-based methods to conduct community-engaged research in the United States and Brazil.\n\nThe photographs used in \"My Gender States\" are by Emerson Granillo (American\, b. 1987)\; David Newton (American\, b. 1993)\; and Nicholas Williams (American\, b. 1994). The \"Realm\" assemblages featured in \"My Gender States\" were conceived by Pinto and designed by him\, in collaboration with Sarah Tanner. \n\n\"My Gender States\" is on display in the Lane Hall Exhibit Space (first floor\, 204 S State St) from January 23\, to August 13\, 2024. The exhibit is free and open to the public\, M-F\, 9am-4pm.\n\nHosted by the Institute for Research on Women and Gender and the Women’s and Gender Studies Department.

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.

Whether designing furniture or developing the ideas for sculpture\, the process has always been the same. Ideas begin as\nscribbled images that are then stretched and refined with CAD software. At its core\, much of the work studies the manipulation of simple geometry. Dunn looks at the form from different forced perspectives – exploding\, augmenting\, slicing\, repeating\, and lighting. This body of work is a study of perception\, sympathy\, hierarchy\, and reality. The “We Are Virus” series is an adaptation from an initial design where it continued to evolve and adapt through manipulation of parts and scale.\n\nPeter Dunn received his BFA from Wayne State University and MFA from University of Michigan. He currently serves on faculty at College for Creative Studies UID:116532-21837305@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/116532 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Alumni,Art,Culture,Detroit,Exhibition,Humanities,Visual Arts LOCATION:North Campus Research Complex Building 18 - Rotunda Gallery CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20240115T111145 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20240212T090000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20240212T170000 SUMMARY:Exhibition:Stamps School of Art and Design Staff Exhibition DESCRIPTION:January 26-April 12\, 9 am - 5 pm or by appointment\ncontact: serrag@med.umich.edu UID:116536-21837464@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/116536 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Alumni,Art,Culture,Exhibition,Visual Arts LOCATION:North Campus Research Complex Building 18 - Connections Gallery located on concourse level CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20240209T105543 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20240212T090000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20240212T170000 SUMMARY:Exhibition:Take Your Time DESCRIPTION:Artist Enrico Riley is best known for paintings that investigate violence and hope in cultural traditions in African American culture. His new work—created for his exhibition at the Institute for the Humanities Gallery—is personal and abstract. Started as an attempt to paint for himself\, away from the center of things and off at the edges\, they are from the spaces of private thought that slip into existence and just as easily slip away. They come from an internal conversation and contact with the world. \"When I am with them\,\" Riley explains\, \"I feel a tension between the spaces in the works being present but unnamed. The paintings allow me to observe myself looking. I am acutely aware of time. Maybe they are an invitation to speculate.\" UID:116414-21836787@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/116414 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Art,Black History Month,Exhibition,Humanities,Visual Arts LOCATION:202 S.

The informal discussion will be followed by a tour of the exhibit.\n\nThe exhibit provides a unique glimpse into the actor/director Orson Welles’ private life. 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\, these photographs 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.

Across all these forms of engagement\, participants will learn concepts and actions that promote equitable partnerships\, center community-defined priorities\, and disrupt entrenched power dynamics between universities and community members. Participants will also discuss real-world community engagement scenarios that ask them to apply what they’ve learned in the workshop to various situations. \n\n**New for 2023-24\, this workshop is an updated version of Ginsberg’s long-standing Entering\, Engaging\, and Exiting (E3) session.

A Zoom option is also provided.\n\nSeminar Description:\nQuantum error correction is an exciting scientific frontier at the interface of many fields including quantum information science\, many-body physics\, and computer science. The field has developed rapidly in the last several years\, with major milestones marking the first glimpses into a future of error-corrected quantum computers. At the same time\, these advances have also illuminated the major science and engineering challenges that remain on the road to useful fault-tolerant quantum computers due to large resource overheads and demanding performance and control requirements. In this talk\, I will discuss recent progress in strategies to ease the demands of error correction with a focus on two leading quantum information platforms: superconducting circuits and cold atoms. First\, I will discuss the paradigm of “erasure qubits” which are qubits for which errors can be flagged in real-time and are consequently easier to correct. In this context\, I will discuss recent experiments showing how erasure qubits can be realized using a “dual-rail” encoding in superconducting transmons\, offering a way to package standard qubit components into better error correction building blocks. Second\, I will discuss the recent\, rapid progress in neutral atom quantum computers and highlight how the unique capabilities for efficient and flexible control can ease the path towards scalable operation of error-corrected quantum processors.

Conventional classification approaches have limited our insights into the evolution of hair. The development of cutting-edge high-throughput phenotyping methods is now unveiling the extensive diversity in scalp hair morphology and its genetic underpinnings. By contrasting the progress in skin phenotyping with the untapped prospects in hair research\, this presentation will underscore the crucial role of measurement in associating phenotypes with genetic variation and in illuminating the evolutionary history of these human traits.

Their history is rich with anomalies and unexpected observations\, often resulting in significant discoveries. The culmination of these experiments has led to the establishment of the \"three-neutrino paradigm\"\, which has been remarkably successful in unifying a vast array of observed data around the world. The international mega-science experiment DUNE is set to build on this\, probing with incredible precision the remaining questions of the three-neutrino paradigm. However\, several persistent anomalies remain and hint at the intriguing possibility we may be on the cusp of another groundbreaking discovery. This talk will delve into the exploration of these anomalies\, and how using Liquid Argon Time Projection Chamber technology the MicroBooNE experiment has begun to reshape our interpretations with its first set of results. I will also explore the rapidly growing interest in the potential of the neutrino sector to serve as a portal to the `Dark Sector’. Here exotic particles and interactions give an exciting new direction to all future short-baseline experiments\, and I will report on MicroBooNE’s first targeted Dark Sector anomaly search and discuss what technological advances we need to truly probe beyond the standard model in future experiments.

As a remedy\, Adams conjectured that instead of L-packets\, the theta correspondence preserves Arthur packets. Moeglin verified Adams' conjecture when the theta correspondence has sufficiently large rank. Moeglin also showed that Adams' conjecture fails in low rank. Bakic and Hanzer showed that the failure can be managed: namely if Adams conjecture holds at some rank then it holds in any higher rank. In this talk\, we discuss how to understand the failure of Adams' conjecture in low rank and how to remedy it.

DESCRIPTION:A specter is haunting representative democracy: the specter of populism. With the rise of populist parties and politicians on both the left and the right\, scholars have looked for lessons in the democracies of ancient Greece\, which dealt with their own “demagogues.” This talk explores the similarities but\, more importantly\, the profound differences between populists and demagogues. In ancient Greece\, the danger was not so much political elites failing to stop a demagogue from becoming a tyrant\, but instead an excess of popular fervor triggering elite backlash and the replacement of democracy with oligarchy.\n \nMatthew Simonton is an Associate Professor of History in the School of Humanities\, Arts\, and Cultural Studies at Arizona State University. His research brings contemporary social science theory to bear on ancient Greek history\, particularly political history. He is interested in the ways the Greeks created social and political institutions in response to crises and how those institutions shaped history over time. His first book\, \"Classical Greek Oligarchy: A Political History\" (Princeton University Press\, 2017)\, approaches the phenomenon of Classical Greek oligarchy\, or the \"rule of the few\,\" from an institutional standpoint\, comparing oligarchic political practices to those of contemporary authoritarian regimes. He is currently writing a book on ancient Greek demagogues.

The mutation graph of a (mutation) equivalence class of quivers has a vertex for each quiver and an edge between two vertices if their quivers are related by a mutation. A mutation cycle is a cycle in this graph. We show that already for 4-vertex quivers there are examples of mutation cycles that have arbitrarily large length and cannot be paved by shorter cycles\, and discuss other constructions of mutation cycles. This talk is based on joint work with Sergey Fomin.

Research is needed on the experiences of learners and scientists from Eng+ backgrounds to ensure that all members of our scientific community have the opportunity to learn and contribute\, especially as our classrooms and research groups become increasingly diverse.\n\nIn this seminar\, I will share two of our studies on the experiences of Eng+ learners in chemistry education. Our first study examined how undergraduate science students (N = 166) justified a chemical phenomenon in English and how this related to students' English proficiency. Our second study explored the experiences of Eng+ chemistry research trainees (N = 18) in learning\, communicating\, and doing chemistry in English. We explored challenges these trainees faced\, but also strategies and supports they found helpful and needed from supervisors/colleagues and departments. Alongside findings from both projects\, I will share implications for teaching and mentorship\, with special attention to what may be relevant to making learning and research more equitable at the University of Michigan.

Further\, one may wonder how robust this phenomenon is and how large can k be. On the one hand\, this question is an analogue of a classic problem from random matrix theory\, and\, on the other hand\, it is intimately related to short character sums over function fields with the power k serving as the conductor. In our work\, we prove that the distribution of Tr(X^k) is indeed asymptotically uniform and that the respective short interval character sums exhibit cancellation for k = q^{o(n^2)}. This is a much wider range than one could hope to obtain for general characters\, and in fact\, this phenomenon seems to have no analogue over the integers. This is joint work with Ofir Gorodetsky.

Follwing Jesus in a Warming World DESCRIPTION:Climate activist Kyle Meyaard-Schaap addresses the apathy of the Christian community in the face of the climate crisis. Drawing on years of equipping Christians to work for climate action\, he will show how the trend is beginning to shift. More and more young Christians are waking up to the realities of climate change. They want to help\, but they're not sure how. Through stories from the field\, theological and scriptural exploration\, and practical advice\, Meyaard-Schaap offers hope to people paralyzed by the scale of the crisis\, helping us turn our paralysis into meaningful action. His book\, Following Jesus in a Warming World\, is a field guide for Christian climate action—one grounded not in a sense of guilt or drudgery\, but in the joy of caring for creation. Rev. Meyaard-Schaap will share his lecture\, followed by a time of conversation with those who attend.

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.

Pinto (School of Social Work) invites audiences to take part in an exhibition that examines his embodied gender states based on his intersecting childhood traumas and life experiences. In \"My Gender States\,\" Pinto shares his deep and abiding grief related to the childhood death of his sister and the subsequent gender embodiments that ensued stemming from the belief that he was his deceased sister. \n\nUsing autoethnography\, Pinto created a one-person play (\"Marília\,\" 2015) and site-specific installation performance (\"The Realm of the Dead\,\" 2022). These works explore the intersecting and shaping layers of childhood traumas\, gender states\, and his life experience—a story of the struggles\, fears\, and accomplishments he experienced as an immigrant to the United States. In \"Realm\,\" audiences circulated around 25 assemblage sculptures created from vintage suitcases and trunks that evoked the cemetery where Pinto’s sister was buried and the literal and figurative baggage that he\, a queer immigrant\, carried with him. \"My Gender States\" is a selection of materials\, images\, and texts from \"Marília\" and \"Realm\" curated to more closely examine the themes of gender and sexuality in these works. Collected are portrayals of Pinto’s gender states\, gender confusion\, gender embodiments\, gender doubt\, and reactions to gender stigma. \n\nRogério M. Pinto (Brazilian\, American\, b. 1965\, Belo Horizonte\, Brazil) is a University Diversity Social Transformation Professor\; Berit Ingersoll-Dayton Collegiate Professor of Social Work\; and Professor of Theatre and Drama\, School of Music\, Theatre & Dance\, at the University of Michigan. Pinto uses art-based methods to conduct community-engaged research in the United States and Brazil.\n\nThe photographs used in \"My Gender States\" are by Emerson Granillo (American\, b. 1987)\; David Newton (American\, b. 1993)\; and Nicholas Williams (American\, b. 1994). The \"Realm\" assemblages featured in \"My Gender States\" were conceived by Pinto and designed by him\, in collaboration with Sarah Tanner. \n\n\"My Gender States\" is on display in the Lane Hall Exhibit Space (first floor\, 204 S State St) from January 23\, to August 13\, 2024. The exhibit is free and open to the public\, M-F\, 9am-4pm.\n\nHosted by the Institute for Research on Women and Gender and the Women’s and Gender Studies Department.

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).

Whether designing furniture or developing the ideas for sculpture\, the process has always been the same. Ideas begin as\nscribbled images that are then stretched and refined with CAD software. At its core\, much of the work studies the manipulation of simple geometry. Dunn looks at the form from different forced perspectives – exploding\, augmenting\, slicing\, repeating\, and lighting. This body of work is a study of perception\, sympathy\, hierarchy\, and reality. The “We Are Virus” series is an adaptation from an initial design where it continued to evolve and adapt through manipulation of parts and scale.\n\nPeter Dunn received his BFA from Wayne State University and MFA from University of Michigan.

Started as an attempt to paint for himself\, away from the center of things and off at the edges\, they are from the spaces of private thought that slip into existence and just as easily slip away. They come from an internal conversation and contact with the world. \"When I am with them\,\" Riley explains\, \"I feel a tension between the spaces in the works being present but unnamed. The paintings allow me to observe myself looking. I am acutely aware of time. Maybe they are an invitation to speculate.\" UID:116414-21836788@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/116414 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Art,Black History Month,Exhibition,Humanities,Visual Arts LOCATION:202 S.

The works on view in this exhibition\, all brought into the Museum between 2019 and the present\, shows how institutions like UMMA are becoming more permeable to societal challenges\, and more nimble in responding to them in service to all in their communities. In this exhibition you will find works that reflect on how global migrations\, race\, gender\, and ecological change shape the way we engage with the world and inform our visions for the future.\n \nThis collection of artistic engagements with issues give us tools to envision who we want to be as individuals\, as a museum\, and as a society\, connected to one another across space and experience.\n \nSo gather here to take in these latest works of art brought here for you. Gather here to be engulfed in their forms and meanings\, to discuss their takes\, to learn\, to disagree. Gather to relax\, make a friend\, drink a coffee\, finish the daily Wordle.

Written across the walls above and around the memorial\, a statement proclaims Anishinaabe rights to the land we stand on: “You are on Anishinaabe Land.”  \n \nPresented alongside are paintings of imagined decolonized landscapes and a symbolic cache of provisions. Future Cache implicitly asks those who have benefited from the legacies of colonization to consider where they stand and where to go from here and seeks to foster a sense of belonging for displaced Indigenous peoples fighting for restitution.\n\nSpecial thanks to the Cheboiganing (Burt Lake) Band of Ottawa and Chippewa Indians\, Margaret Noodin\, and Richard A.

DESCRIPTION:Care in Uncertain Times\n \nAs crises of public health\, economic instability\, authoritarian regimes\, racial injustice\, and climate change spread around the globe\, millions are experiencing distress\, conflict\, uncertainty\, and vulnerability. This troubling combination of experiences is nothing new for Cambodians. Between 1975-1979\, when the Khmer Rouge ruled Cambodia\, about a quarter of the country’s populations died of infectious diseases\, weapon wounds\, and malnutrition.\n \nThis exhibition brings together more than 80 works of art spanning a millennium to present how the visual culture of Cambodia and its diaspora has evolved in the face of cultural upheaval. Showcasing works from worldwide collections\, including those from some of the foremost members of the Cambodian contemporary art scene\, Angkor Complex allows viewers to encounter the still-fresh scars of a genocide and critically appreciate the strategies evolved to nurture resilience in trying times.\n\nLead support for this exhibition is provided by the U-M Office of the Provost\, U-M Office of the President\, National Endowment for the Arts\, Michigan Arts and Culture Council\, Eleanor Noyes Crumpacker Endowment Fund\, and U-M Ross School of Business.\n  UID:114750-21833424@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/114750 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Art,Culture,Exhibition,Museum,Public Health,UMMA LOCATION:Museum of Art - A.

How have their perspectives shaped the enduring stories of our history and visions of the past?\n \nYou’re Welcome is a three-part installation and dynamic intervention that exposes the histories and narratives of the land occupied by the University of Michigan and UMMA’s neoclassical building\, Alumni Memorial Hall. A large-scale commission from artist Cannupa Hanska Luger on the exterior of UMMA’s building asks the campus and community to reconsider the memories molded into the Museum’s stone — the perspectives that shaped those traditions and the stories that remain unseen in our facade. This artistic interrogation dissects colonialist norms of monument-making\, explores the roles of buildings in upholding selected cultural systems\, and develops new forms of memorials that center Indigenous perspectives and collaboration to tell fuller stories and histories. \n \nLuger communicates stories of 21st-century Indigeneity\, sovereignty\, and anti-colonialism while offering critical cultural analysis through deep engagements with materials\, environments\, and communities. In addition to the exterior commission\, a gallery exhibition places Luger’s works of art in conversation with objects in UMMA’s collection\, allowing for discussion and thinking on long histories of collecting practices\, environmental degradation\, and the afterlife of colonialism. And\, a monument classroom from nonprofit public art and history studio Monument Lab invites the community to come together and examine how historic structures on the University of Michigan’s campus uphold social and cultural systems and narratives.  \n\nLead support for this project is provided by Teiger Foundation\, the U-M Office of the Provost\, the U-M Office of the President\, Erica Gervais Pappendick and Ted Pappendick\, the U-M Marsal Family School of Education\, the U-M Institute for the Humanities\, Michigan Humanities\, and the U-M Arts Initiative.

Collected for each course are objects that address the nature of materiality\, time\, and human interaction in relation to our environments\, our wars\, our relationships\, and our eccentricities. \n \nWorking in collaboration with University faculty\, the works in this exhibition were selected for their capacity to provoke engagement with the guiding questions and themes of their specific courses\, while also offering students inspiration for research and art projects in their areas of study. The exhibition demonstrates some of the diverse and creative ways art plays a central role in learning across the disciplines. It also asks us to consider what we can learn from art objects across an infinite variety of specialties and subject matter.\n \nAs classes begin in Fall of 2021\, you’ll be able to use these pages to explore the collections designed for each course\, dive into the works themselves\, and hear from the professors and students about how they are engaging with art and objects in new ways.

Choices about which artists you see in our galleries\, choices about what relevant facts we share about the works\, and choices about what - out of an infinite number of options - we don’t say about them.\n \nPieces in this exhibition were made at a time when the world came to be shaped by the ideologies of colonial expansion and Western domination. And yet\, that history and the stories of those marginalized do not readily appear in the still lives and portraits on display here. By grappling with what is visible and what remains hidden\, we are forced to examine whose stories and histories are prioritized and why.  \n \nIn this online exhibition\, you can explore our efforts to deeply question the Museum’s collection and our own past complicity in favoring colonial voices. In the Museum gallery\, which will open in early 2021\, you’ll be able to experience the changes we’re making to the physical space to highlight a more honest version of European and American history. \n \nBy challenging our own practice\, and continuing to add to what we know and what we write about the works we display\, UMMA tells a more complex and more complete story of this nation - one that unsettles\, and fails to settle for\, simple narratives. \n \n“Invisible things are not necessarily ‘not there’.... Certain absences are so stressed\, so ornate\, so planned\, they call attention to themselves\; arrest us with intentionality and purpose\, like neighborhoods that are defined by the population held away from them.” \n \n— Toni Morrison\n\nLead support for Unsettling Histories: Legacies of Slavery and Colonialism is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost\, the U-M Arts Initiative\, and the Susan and Richard Gutow Endowed Fund.\n  UID:84303-21621207@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/84303 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Art,European,Exhibition,History,Museum,UMMA LOCATION:Museum of Art - European and American Decorative Art CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20240213T112040 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20240213T120000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20240213T140000 SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Black History Month Celebration DESCRIPTION:Join OGPS and CMB DEI Taskforce for a Black History Month Celebration.

In ASGM\, forests are cleared\, rivers are dredged\, and mining ponds are created. Gold is isolated using mercury\, a potent neurotoxin\, which then enters the aquatic and terrestrial ecosystem via atmospheric deposition or from contaminated tailings. Consequently\, ASGM activity represents the largest global source of anthropogenic mercury emissions. While previous studies have shown widespread deforestation and mercury contamination from ASGM\, little is known about how ASGM changes the hydrologic landscape and how mercury loading and transformation processes differ across these environments. Little is also known about the fate and impact of these atmospheric mercury emissions within forests located near ASGM. We analyzed remote sensing imagery of the Peruvian Amazon over the past 35 years and collected water samples from a 200-km reach of the Madre de Dios River\, its tributaries\, and surrounding oxbow lakes and mining ponds in areas both upstream and downstream of ASGM activity. We used these data to examine how the creation of ASGM-associated ponds impacts mercury transformations into the more bioavailable form of methylmercury within aquatic ecosystems. We then collected bulk precipitation\, throughfall\, litterfall\, soil\, and songbird feathers from locations near and far from ASGM activity in the Madre de Dios region of Peru. We used these data to determine whether atmospherically transported mercury derived from ASGM activity is entering local forest soils and food webs. These results raise important questions about the impact of mercury pollution on both aquatic and terrestrial ecosystems as well as for indigenous communities and wildlife that depend on them.\n\nhttp://gersonlab.weebly.com UID:117463-21839349@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/117463 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:AEM Featured,Basic Science,Biology,Biosciences,Bsbsigns,department of ecology and evolutionary biology,ecology,Ecology & Biology,Ecology And Evolutionary Biology LOCATION:Biological Sciences Building - 1010 CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20240208T171338 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20240213T120000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20240213T153000 SUMMARY:Well-being:Friendship Bracelet-making Drop-in!

Zoom registration at https://myumi.ch/4rAwy\n\nYouth unemployment and underemployment\, especially among college graduates\, have surged to unprecedented levels in recent years in China. In this study\, we highlight youth unemployment and underemployment as prevalent yet distinct phenomena\, and explore their trends and determinants over the past few decades. We further investigate the social and political implications of youth unemployment and underemployment\, specifically their impact on 1) marriage and fertility patterns\, and 2) political attitudes and behaviors.\n \n Yao Lu is Professor of Sociology and Faculty Affiliate at the Columbia Population Research Center (CPRC)\, the Weatherhead East Asian Institute (WEAI)\, and the Data Science Institute (DSI). Her research centers on the intersection of inequality\, demography\, and political sociology\, particularly how demographic forces and inequality influence social and political processes in China. Her current work examines patterns and societal consequences of youth unemployment and underemployment in China. She has received funding from the National Science Foundation\, the National Institutes of Health\, and the Russell Sage Foundation. She has also conducted two national surveys as part of a team. The first survey focuses on migration and families in China (2012-2013). The second survey investigates how the COVID-19 pandemic has shaped ethnic/racial attitudes in the United States (2020-2022).\n \nIf there is anything we can do to make this event accessible to you\, please contact us.

Foregrounding an intersectional framing of postwar political histories\, Jones demonstrates how the shared non-normative status of Blackness and homosexuality facilitated comparisons between subjects and political visions associated with both. Drawing upon organizational records\, manuscript collections\, newspaper accounts\, and visual and textual ephemera\, this study traces a long\, conflicting relationship between Black and LGBT political identities that continues to the present day.\nThis event is part of IRWG’s Gender: New Works\, New Questions series\, which spotlights new books by our faculty.

The topology originates in the bulk and leads to usual surface states. Topological materials can exhibit exotic transport and optical phenomena such as the anomalous Hall effect and chiral anomaly. In this talk\, I will overview basic concepts of topological states of matter and introduce latest progress including the nonlinear transport due to quantum geometry.\n\nBinghai Yan is an associate professor in the department of condensed matter physics at the Weizmann Institute of Science\, Israel. He is a theoretical physicist and currently interested in topological materials and topology-induced phenomena in transport and optics. After completing his PhD at Tsinghua University in 2008\, he worked as a postdoc at Bremen University and later at Stanford University. He was a group leader in the Max Planck Institute in Dresden during 2012-2016 and started his current position at Weizmann Institute in 2017. He was awarded the ARCHES Prize in Germany in 2013\, the Israel Physical Society Prize for Young Scientist in 2017 and recognized as a Highly Cited Researcher every year since 2019. He is currently visiting Penn State University for sabbatical.

This arrangement of atoms\, known as a motif\, is structurally supported by the rest of the protein\, referred to as a scaffold. A central task in protein design is to identify a diverse set of stabilizing scaffolds to support a motif known or theorized to confer function. This long-standing challenge is known as the motif-scaffolding problem.\n\nIn this talk\, I describe a statistical approach I have developed to address the motif-scaffolding problem. My approach involves (1) estimating a distribution supported on realizable protein structures and (2) sampling scaffolds from this distribution conditioned on a motif. For step (1) I adapt diffusion generative models to fit example protein structures from nature. For step (2) I develop sequential Monte Carlo algorithms to sample from the conditional distributions of these models. I finally describe how\, with experimental and computational collaborators\, I have generalized and scaled this approach to generate and experimentally validate hundreds of proteins with various functional specifications.

These reactions represent some of the most kinetically and thermodynamically challenging processes known. Interestingly\, rate-limiting conformational changes precede catalysis in many metalloenzymes. The pervasiveness of this mechanistic pattern suggests that conformational gating may play an important role in mediating challenging chemical transformations in an energy-efficient manner. However\, these enzymes are extremely complex\, rendering direct examination of their conformational gating steps a tremendous challenge. Instead\, we have taken the unique approach of preparing model systems in which macroscopic changes in the molecular structure of a ligand or protein host give rise to subatomic changes in the electronic structure of a bound metal ion. These systems include both conformationally dynamic coordination complexes and conformationally switchable artificial metalloproteins. In both cases\, exciting new properties have emerged from the structural dynamicity at play. Ultimately\, our work with these systems aims to define and quantify the kinetic and thermodynamic consequences of conformational gating mechanisms. Additionally\, the systems under development are molecular switches and can also be exploited in applications ranging from solar energy conversion\, to biomedical imaging\, to green methods in chemical catalysis.

Namely\, that these components are \"smooth\" in the sense that they can be sufficiently approximated by few degrees of freedom. PDEs with higher order terms violate these assumptions\, causing an unbounded number of $V$-cycles for convergence. As an example\, we introduce a PDE that arises in kinetic-edge plasma simulation. This PDE contains an isotropic fourth-order term\, making existing methods infeasible. In this work\, we propose an $O(n)$ highly-parallelizable exact method to solve the system solely containing the isotropic fourth-order term. We then extend this algorithm to solve the original system\, including periodic boundary conditions. Our algorithm obtains drastic improvement over existing methods.

This webinar is free and open to the public\, but registration is required. Once you've registered\, the joining information will be sent to your email.\n \n Register at: http://myumi.ch/x7Wem\n \n The traditional understanding of honorifics has often regarded them as linguistic forms reflecting relative social-positional differences\, assuming a direct one-to-one relationship between social structure and language use. As implied by the term\, the conventional understanding of honorifics has been associated with 'respect' and 'formality'. However\, recent studies on honorifics suggest that speakers of languages with an honorific system do not merely choose honorifics passively based on social norms\; instead\, they actively and strategically select honorific forms to meet the demands of a given context. Consequently\, people often shift speech styles in the same context and may even use non-honorific styles when addressing socially higher individuals. In this presentation\, I will exemplify the use of honorifics that goes against general perceptions\, exploring various social meanings and functions of Korean honorifics.\n \n Sang-Seok Yoon is an Assistant Professor of Korean Linguistics in the Department of Asian and Slavic Languages and Literatures at the University of Iowa. The primary focus of his research encompasses sociolinguistics\, pragmatics\, and second language acquisition. He specializes in the linguistic politeness of the Korean language and is recognized as one of the authors of the Integrated Korean Textbook series published by the University of Hawaii Press\, which stands as the most widely used Korean textbook in the U.S.\n \nIf there is anything we can do to make this event accessible to you\, please contact us.

For instance\, over the complex numbers\, one may examine the topology of the solution set\, whereas over a finite field\, one may count its points. For polynomials with integer coefficients\, these two fundamental invariants are intimately related via cohomological comparison theorems and trace formulas for the action of Frobenius. I will discuss the general framework relating point counting over finite fields to topology of complex algebraic varieties and also present recent applications to the cohomology of moduli spaces of curves that resolve longstanding questions in algebraic geometry and confirm more recent predictions from the Langlands program.

He time-travels works from the past into the present by his repainting joined to his own texts. Here’s the idea: Paintings are nothing on their own\, they start meaning something only when you start talking back to them. Aptekar turns this conviction into oil paintings on wood panels over which he bolts glass sandblasted with text. This idea animating his work extends to digital prints\, and more recently\, video\, and illuminated manuscripts. With words disrupting reinterpreted images from art history\, his works assert the value of recognizing our transhistorical bonds\, society’s vexing failings\, and art’s capacity to bring us together across our differences.\n\nAs COVID-19 swept into our lives\, Aptekar began new work on illuminated manuscripts. Holed up in a corner of the vaulted furnace room of his house in Burgundy\, France\, he worked with gouache\, tiny brushes\, gold leaf\, and calligraphy pen in his own “scriptorium.” He merged two very different types of communication\; the exquisite\, labor-intensive techniques and forms seen in medieval pages hidden away in rare book rooms were pressed into the service of messages made minute to minute on cell phones. For his talk\, Aptekar will highlight the twists and turns in his shifting preoccupations that produced works at times disturbing\, contemplative\, and hilarious.\n\nBorn in Detroit\, Aptekar received his BFA at the University of Michigan\, then moved to Brooklyn to complete an MFA at Pratt Institute. Most recently\, his work was featured at the Jewish Museum in Vienna\, Austria\, and in the Biennale Internationale d’Autun\, in Autun\, France. A major commissioned solo exhibition\, NACHBARN (“NEIGHBORS”)\, 2016\, was on view at the St. Annen Museum in Lübeck\, Germany\, including paintings with text\, silverpoint drawings\, and video all based upon medieval altarpieces in the St. Annen Museum’s collection.\n\nPreviously\, his work has been seen in solo exhibitions at the Victoria & Albert Museum in collaboration with the Serpentine Gallery (London)\, the Corcoran Gallery of Art (Washington\, DC)\, Memorial Art Gallery (Rochester\, NY)\, Centro da Cultura Judaica (Sao Paolo\, Brazil)\, Musée Robert Dubois-Corneau (Brunoy\, France)\, the New Museum (New York\, NY)\, Douglas Cooley Gallery at Reed College (Portland\, OR)\, Palmer Museum of Art at Penn State (State College\, PA)\, Cummer Museum (Jacksonville\, FL)\, and the Elaine Jacob Gallery at Wayne State University (Detroit\, MI). In 2012 Aptekar’s work was the subject of a survey exhibition\, “Ken Aptekar: Look Again\,” at the Beard and Weil Galleries\, Wheaton College\, Massachusetts.\nA solo exhibition of Ken Aptekar’s work will be on view at Wasserman Projects in Detroit from January 20 through March 9\, 2024.

Pinto (School of Social Work) invites audiences to take part in an exhibition that examines his embodied gender states based on his intersecting childhood traumas and life experiences. In \"My Gender States\,\" Pinto shares his deep and abiding grief related to the childhood death of his sister and the subsequent gender embodiments that ensued stemming from the belief that he was his deceased sister. \n\nUsing autoethnography\, Pinto created a one-person play (\"Marília\,\" 2015) and site-specific installation performance (\"The Realm of the Dead\,\" 2022). These works explore the intersecting and shaping layers of childhood traumas\, gender states\, and his life experience—a story of the struggles\, fears\, and accomplishments he experienced as an immigrant to the United States. In \"Realm\,\" audiences circulated around 25 assemblage sculptures created from vintage suitcases and trunks that evoked the cemetery where Pinto’s sister was buried and the literal and figurative baggage that he\, a queer immigrant\, carried with him. \"My Gender States\" is a selection of materials\, images\, and texts from \"Marília\" and \"Realm\" curated to more closely examine the themes of gender and sexuality in these works. Collected are portrayals of Pinto’s gender states\, gender confusion\, gender embodiments\, gender doubt\, and reactions to gender stigma. \n\nRogério M. Pinto (Brazilian\, American\, b. 1965\, Belo Horizonte\, Brazil) is a University Diversity Social Transformation Professor\; Berit Ingersoll-Dayton Collegiate Professor of Social Work\; and Professor of Theatre and Drama\, School of Music\, Theatre & Dance\, at the University of Michigan. Pinto uses art-based methods to conduct community-engaged research in the United States and Brazil.\n\nThe photographs used in \"My Gender States\" are by Emerson Granillo (American\, b. 1987)\; David Newton (American\, b. 1993)\; and Nicholas Williams (American\, b. 1994). The \"Realm\" assemblages featured in \"My Gender States\" were conceived by Pinto and designed by him\, in collaboration with Sarah Tanner. \n\n\"My Gender States\" is on display in the Lane Hall Exhibit Space (first floor\, 204 S State St) from January 23\, to August 13\, 2024. The exhibit is free and open to the public\, M-F\, 9am-4pm.\n\nHosted by the Institute for Research on Women and Gender and the Women’s and Gender Studies Department.

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).

Whether designing furniture or developing the ideas for sculpture\, the process has always been the same. Ideas begin as\nscribbled images that are then stretched and refined with CAD software. At its core\, much of the work studies the manipulation of simple geometry. Dunn looks at the form from different forced perspectives – exploding\, augmenting\, slicing\, repeating\, and lighting. This body of work is a study of perception\, sympathy\, hierarchy\, and reality. The “We Are Virus” series is an adaptation from an initial design where it continued to evolve and adapt through manipulation of parts and scale.\n\nPeter Dunn received his BFA from Wayne State University and MFA from University of Michigan. He currently serves on faculty at College for Creative Studies UID:116532-21837307@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/116532 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Alumni,Art,Culture,Detroit,Exhibition,Humanities,Visual Arts LOCATION:North Campus Research Complex Building 18 - Rotunda Gallery CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20240115T111145 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20240214T090000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20240214T170000 SUMMARY:Exhibition:Stamps School of Art and Design Staff Exhibition DESCRIPTION:January 26-April 12\, 9 am - 5 pm or by appointment\ncontact: serrag@med.umich.edu UID:116536-21837466@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/116536 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Alumni,Art,Culture,Exhibition,Visual Arts LOCATION:North Campus Research Complex Building 18 - Connections Gallery located on concourse level CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20240209T105543 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20240214T090000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20240214T170000 SUMMARY:Exhibition:Take Your Time DESCRIPTION:Artist Enrico Riley is best known for paintings that investigate violence and hope in cultural traditions in African American culture. His new work—created for his exhibition at the Institute for the Humanities Gallery—is personal and abstract. Started as an attempt to paint for himself\, away from the center of things and off at the edges\, they are from the spaces of private thought that slip into existence and just as easily slip away. They come from an internal conversation and contact with the world. \"When I am with them\,\" Riley explains\, \"I feel a tension between the spaces in the works being present but unnamed. The paintings allow me to observe myself looking. I am acutely aware of time.

Written across the walls above and around the memorial\, a statement proclaims Anishinaabe rights to the land we stand on: “You are on Anishinaabe Land.”  \n \nPresented alongside are paintings of imagined decolonized landscapes and a symbolic cache of provisions. Future Cache implicitly asks those who have benefited from the legacies of colonization to consider where they stand and where to go from here and seeks to foster a sense of belonging for displaced Indigenous peoples fighting for restitution.\n\nSpecial thanks to the Cheboiganing (Burt Lake) Band of Ottawa and Chippewa Indians\, Margaret Noodin\, and Richard A.

DESCRIPTION:Care in Uncertain Times\n \nAs crises of public health\, economic instability\, authoritarian regimes\, racial injustice\, and climate change spread around the globe\, millions are experiencing distress\, conflict\, uncertainty\, and vulnerability. This troubling combination of experiences is nothing new for Cambodians. Between 1975-1979\, when the Khmer Rouge ruled Cambodia\, about a quarter of the country’s populations died of infectious diseases\, weapon wounds\, and malnutrition.\n \nThis exhibition brings together more than 80 works of art spanning a millennium to present how the visual culture of Cambodia and its diaspora has evolved in the face of cultural upheaval. Showcasing works from worldwide collections\, including those from some of the foremost members of the Cambodian contemporary art scene\, Angkor Complex allows viewers to encounter the still-fresh scars of a genocide and critically appreciate the strategies evolved to nurture resilience in trying times.\n\nLead support for this exhibition is provided by the U-M Office of the Provost\, U-M Office of the President\, National Endowment for the Arts\, Michigan Arts and Culture Council\, Eleanor Noyes Crumpacker Endowment Fund\, and U-M Ross School of Business.\n  UID:114750-21833425@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/114750 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Art,Culture,Exhibition,Museum,Public Health,UMMA LOCATION:Museum of Art - A.

How have their perspectives shaped the enduring stories of our history and visions of the past?\n \nYou’re Welcome is a three-part installation and dynamic intervention that exposes the histories and narratives of the land occupied by the University of Michigan and UMMA’s neoclassical building\, Alumni Memorial Hall. A large-scale commission from artist Cannupa Hanska Luger on the exterior of UMMA’s building asks the campus and community to reconsider the memories molded into the Museum’s stone — the perspectives that shaped those traditions and the stories that remain unseen in our facade. This artistic interrogation dissects colonialist norms of monument-making\, explores the roles of buildings in upholding selected cultural systems\, and develops new forms of memorials that center Indigenous perspectives and collaboration to tell fuller stories and histories. \n \nLuger communicates stories of 21st-century Indigeneity\, sovereignty\, and anti-colonialism while offering critical cultural analysis through deep engagements with materials\, environments\, and communities. In addition to the exterior commission\, a gallery exhibition places Luger’s works of art in conversation with objects in UMMA’s collection\, allowing for discussion and thinking on long histories of collecting practices\, environmental degradation\, and the afterlife of colonialism. And\, a monument classroom from nonprofit public art and history studio Monument Lab invites the community to come together and examine how historic structures on the University of Michigan’s campus uphold social and cultural systems and narratives.  \n\nLead support for this project is provided by Teiger Foundation\, the U-M Office of the Provost\, the U-M Office of the President\, Erica Gervais Pappendick and Ted Pappendick\, the U-M Marsal Family School of Education\, the U-M Institute for the Humanities\, Michigan Humanities\, and the U-M Arts Initiative.

Configuration spaces of higher dimensional manifolds have been studied widely\, but less is known when X is a graph. We consider a family of graphs $G_n$ with compatible $S_n$-actions. Fixing the number of points k\, the homology groups of the k-configuration spaces of these graphs exhibit representation stability for many families. Examples include the star graphs\, complete graphs\, and the Kneser graphs. Our goal is to explicitly compute these stable representations. We use a discretized model for the configuration spaces developed by Abrams that has a cellular decomposition in terms of the combinatorics of the graphs and we perform our computations in the software system SageMath. We will present some partial results in the cases k=2 and G is a star graph and a complete graph. This is joint work with Eric Ramos.\n\n\nNote regarding location: The Pillsbury room is located on Floor 4M on the Psychology side of East Hall.

Collected for each course are objects that address the nature of materiality\, time\, and human interaction in relation to our environments\, our wars\, our relationships\, and our eccentricities. \n \nWorking in collaboration with University faculty\, the works in this exhibition were selected for their capacity to provoke engagement with the guiding questions and themes of their specific courses\, while also offering students inspiration for research and art projects in their areas of study. The exhibition demonstrates some of the diverse and creative ways art plays a central role in learning across the disciplines. It also asks us to consider what we can learn from art objects across an infinite variety of specialties and subject matter.\n \nAs classes begin in Fall of 2021\, you’ll be able to use these pages to explore the collections designed for each course\, dive into the works themselves\, and hear from the professors and students about how they are engaging with art and objects in new ways.

Choices about which artists you see in our galleries\, choices about what relevant facts we share about the works\, and choices about what - out of an infinite number of options - we don’t say about them.\n \nPieces in this exhibition were made at a time when the world came to be shaped by the ideologies of colonial expansion and Western domination. And yet\, that history and the stories of those marginalized do not readily appear in the still lives and portraits on display here. By grappling with what is visible and what remains hidden\, we are forced to examine whose stories and histories are prioritized and why.  \n \nIn this online exhibition\, you can explore our efforts to deeply question the Museum’s collection and our own past complicity in favoring colonial voices. In the Museum gallery\, which will open in early 2021\, you’ll be able to experience the changes we’re making to the physical space to highlight a more honest version of European and American history. \n \nBy challenging our own practice\, and continuing to add to what we know and what we write about the works we display\, UMMA tells a more complex and more complete story of this nation - one that unsettles\, and fails to settle for\, simple narratives. \n \n“Invisible things are not necessarily ‘not there’.... Certain absences are so stressed\, so ornate\, so planned\, they call attention to themselves\; arrest us with intentionality and purpose\, like neighborhoods that are defined by the population held away from them.” \n \n— Toni Morrison\n\nLead support for Unsettling Histories: Legacies of Slavery and Colonialism is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost\, the U-M Arts Initiative\, and the Susan and Richard Gutow Endowed Fund.\n  UID:84303-21621208@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/84303 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Art,European,Exhibition,History,Museum,UMMA LOCATION:Museum of Art - European and American Decorative Art CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20240229T063158 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20240214T120000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20240214T130000 SUMMARY:Careers / Jobs:Clear Admit Deferred Enrollment MBA Programs Virtual Event DESCRIPTION:Do you have your sights set on deferred enrollment MBA programs?

Traditionally\, the field has focused on static and DC-transport properties\, based on the understanding that topological phases are defined by ground-state properties. However\, this talk will spotlight an emerging topic: the dynamic properties of topological materials. Through studying light-matter interactions\, I will demonstrate how we can use dynamic properties to shed light on the topological properties of materials and bridge these to broader quantum phenomena. In particular\, I will highlight intriguing optical phenomena in topological magnets and superconductors.

In this talk I will formulate a geometric version of the conjecture​ and elaborate on ongoing work\, starting from the case of Newton non-degenerate hypersurfaces. These are hypersurface singularities whose singularities are governed\, up to a certain extent\, by faces of their Newton polyhedra. The extent to which the former is governed by the latter is a key aspect of the conjecture. If time permits\, I will also sketch a recent pursuit to reduce the conjecture to a setting that is slightly more general than the case of Newton non-degenerate hypersurfaces.

In recent years\, MSI studies have been increasingly used to uncover metabolic reprogramming associated with cancer development\, enabling the discovery of key biomarkers with potential for cancer diagnostics.\n\nOvarian cancer (OC) is one of the deadliest cancers among women with no effective screening tools available\, especially for early-stage diagnosis. Due to the lack of symptoms at its early stage\, only a small fraction of OCs is diagnosed for effective treatment. Furthermore\, the detailed mechanism of OC progression and metastasis remains unclear. Herein\, space-resolved lipid and N-glycan profiling of ovarian cancer tissues collected from two mouse models were investigated using matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization (MALDI) MSI. In this talk\, I will discuss spatial distributions and alterations of key lipids and N-glycans in OC mouse tissues\, and their correlations with OC development and metastasis. Selected lipid and N-glycan features were used to develop multivariate statistical models for differentiation of OC tissues from healthy control tissues\, providing basis for early-stage OC diagnosis.\n\nI will also introduce my current work on developing a new laser based MSI platform powered by a triboelectric nanogenerator (TENG)\, which can induce lipid C=C bond epoxidation for in-depth lipid identification in MSI experiments.

I seek to trace the contours of a cultural imaginary in which the serf looms large\, exercising a frightening or uncanny power over its counterpart\, the franc\, whose status is never firmly or definitively acquired. Reading works by\, for instance\, Philippe de Vitry\, Eustache Deschamps\, and Pierre d’Ailly I will propose that the serf is one who engages in and benefits from unalienated labor and who experiences satisfaction (souffisance) with his material conditions. The notion of the serf has implications for thinking about both sovereignty and tyranny\, and functions moreover to foreground the awareness of precarity which\, I suggest\, haunts the elite readership of the late 14th century.

Prior to this\, Jarrett held teaching positions at Vanderbilt University\, the University of Memphis\, the University of Manitoba\, and was the Principal Tubist with the Winnipeg Symphony Orchestra from 2018-2021. He has also held positions with the Civic Orchestra of Chicago and the New World Symphony. Jarrett’s playing has been called “magnificent” by the *Palm Beach Daily News* and “warm\, romantic and seamless” by the South Florida Classical Review.\n\nAs a soloist\, Jarrett won the top prize in the brass category of the Orchestre Symphonique de Montreal’s Standard Life Competition in 2014\, becoming the first tubist to do so in the competition’s 80-year history. Jarrett was also a finalist in the XVI Tchaikovsky Competition (the inaugural year for brass participants) in St. Petersburg\, Russia\, and the only North American tubist to participate in the live rounds. Jarrett has performed with a number of different ensembles\, including the Berlin Philharmonic\, Chicago Symphony Orchestra\, the St. Louis Symphony Orchestra\, Utah Symphony Orchestra\, the Detroit Symphony Orchestra\, the Milwaukee Symphony Orchestra\, l’Orchestre Symphonique de Montréal\, the National Arts Centre Orchestra and the Canadian Brass.\n\nJarrett is also a certified yoga instructor (YTT200) and certified crisis hotline worker (Crisis Text Line)\, and has been a guest on popular music-themed podcasts including The Brass Junkies\, Sound Mind Musician\, That’s Not Spit It’s Condensation\, and The Mindful Musical Life Podcast speaking largely about ways to improve one’s mental health as a musician in the 21st century. Jarrett earned a Bachelor’s of Music (Tuba Performance) and a Bachelor of Arts in Philosophy (Ethics) from the University of Western Ontario and a Master’s in Tuba and Euphonium Performance and Chamber Music from the University of Michigan. His primary teachers are Brent Adams\, Fritz Kaenzig\, Gene Pokorny\, Warren Deck and Craig Knox.

University Ave.\nFree and open to the public\n*Light reception to follow post-performance discussion*\n\n\nA post-performance discussion will follow with The Innocents (Allen Otte and John Lane)\, David Moran\, Clinical Professor of Law and co-founder of the Michigan Innocence Clinic\, and Richard Phillips\, a client of the Michigan Innocence Clinic who was exonerated in 2018 & 2022 after serving 45 years in prison.\n\nThe Innocents is social justice advocacy through performance art. The work is an effort to delve deeply into the most current issues surrounding the core subject of wrongful imprisonment and exoneration\, as well as a commitment to connect with the communities in which it is performed. The duo has embraced their role as advocates through the realization that their work cuts to the emotional core of the human experience surrounding these issues.\n\nUsing a variety of found-object and home-made instruments\, electronic soundscapes\, and spoken texts\, performer-composers John Lane and Allen Otte have devised a one-hour dramatic soundscape comprised of at least seventeen individual tableaus which endeavor to explore various aspects of the issues surrounding wrongful imprisonment and exoneration in the American criminal justice system: mistaken identity\, incarceration\, injustice\, politics\, psychology\, and resilience. \n\nThe texts spoken in the work are derived from a variety of sources: various historic prison diaries/poetry\, interrogation transcripts\, Google autocomplete\, Thomas Jefferson\, Jax (a female prisoner in the Oklahoma State Prison system)\, Mark Godsey (former NY prosecutor\, author of Blind Injustice)\, captured Chicago police scan chatter\, among many other sources. In an effort to make their work relevant\, each major performance has originally crafted tableaus (texts and or music) that directly resonate with the local communities in which the duo is performing. \n\nAllen Otte came to the University of Cincinnati in 1977 with the Blackearth Percussion Group and in 1979 founded the world-renowned ensemble\, Percussion Group Cincinnati. Otte has regularly taught\, given master classes\, and presented his own creative work—solo and collaborative—throughout the Americas\, Europe and Asia. \n\nJohn Lane is an artist whose creative work and collaborations extend through percussion to poetry/spoken word and theater. As a performer\, he has appeared on stages throughout the Americas\, Australia\, and Japan. He is currently Professor of Percussion at Sam Houston State University. Together they have performed The Innocents throughout the United States\, including at The MLK Center for Civil and Human Rights in Atlanta\, the Contemporary Arts Center of Cincinnati\, the International Innocence Network Conference\, the Global Center for Democracy and Journalism at Sam Houston State University\, the Woody Guthrie Center\, and numerous schools and universities.\nhttps://www.the-innocents.com\n\nPresented by the Center for World Performance Studies with support from the School of Music\, Theatre & Dance and the Prison Creative Arts Project.\n\nIf you are a person with a disability who requires an accommodation to participate in this event\, please contact Center for World Performance Studies\, at cwps.information@umich.edu or call 734-936-2777\, at least one week in advance of this event.
