Latinx Research Week is an interdisciplinary\, conference-style series of events that we host annually on campus to uplift research being conducted by Latinx staff\, faculty\, and students\, as well as research relevant to Latinx populations. This year Latinx Research Week will be held on March 11th - 14th in the Michigan Union. In 2023\, we were thrilled to host 16 research sessions\, allocate space for over 70 presenters\, and welcome over 300 attendees across our events. We hope to see an even greater turn out this year. \n\nhe theme for Latinx Research Week 2024 is Illuminating Familismo. Familismo is a psychological construct as well as a protective Latinx cultural value that emphasizes the importance of family support\, loyalty\, and honor. Through our interdisciplinary program\, we hope attendees will reflect on\, interrogate\, and reimagine how the academy can be transformed to acknowledge\, welcome\, and illuminate both our biological and chosen familial relationships. In past years\, we have seen spouses\, partners\, siblings\, parents\, children\, and members of the larger Latinx community attend Latinx Research Week in support of their presenting family members\, thus reimagining what an academic conference could and should look like. Additionally\, we have seen other families in attendance: families of co-workers\, cohort-mates\, best friends\, and lab families to name a few. We recognize that many members of the Puentes familia may be far from home but have still chosen to plant roots here and create meaningful communities of chosen family members at UM. We hope that our curated program will illuminate the importance of familismo and encourage attendees to imagine how we can transform academic spaces into more inclusive spaces that honor our families\, chosen or otherwise\, and the ways they have supported our academic journeys. Latinx Research Week 2024: Illuminating Familiso highlights the many ways our families motivate\, inspire\, encourage\, humanize\, and uplift us as we conduct groundbreaking work in our respective fields.

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.

Camera as Passport: The Ship of Photographers DESCRIPTION:Starting in 1933 when Hitler and the Nazis came to power\, a cadre of European Jews—German\, Polish\, Hungarian\, Austrian\, French—discovered that a camera could be their passport\, first out of Germany and then out of Europe. Some of these women and men had been planning one type of career—lawyer\, journalist\, painter\, musician—but then realized that they needed to find another way to earn a living. Taking photographs presented a sufficiently malleable opportunity that not only allowed them to leave Germany and then Europe but also to have a means to sustain themselves in foreign countries where they did not necessarily speak the language.\n \n They did\, however\, mobilize the visual language of photography. For a number of these figures\, forced migration became an asset during the golden age of photojournalism wherein their portable services were employed to supply picture stories on the move and around the world. Many of these Jews became influential photographers\, shaping how their contemporaries saw the world. Looking back on their work\, we can see how they have influenced our understanding of the modern world even as we can recognize their photographs as a significant component of modern Jewish visual culture.\n \n Of the dozens of photographers who fled Europe\, eight escaped on a single ship. The S. S. Winnipeg sailed from Marseille\, France on May 7\, 1941. Germany had already conquered both eastern and western Europe and was poised to invade the Soviet Union. The United States was not yet in the war. Among the 750 refugees aboard were photographers from Hungary\, Belgium\, France\, and Germany: Ilse Bing\, Josef Breitenbach\, Boris Lipnitsky\, Charles Leirens\, Yolla Niclas\, Fred Stein\, Monie Tannen\, and Ylla (Camilla Henriette Koffler). During lifeboat drills\, they discovered each other. Some of them narrowly escaped Vichy France under the auspices of the American journalist Varian Fry and the New York-based Emergency Rescue Committee that helped so many Jewish and anti-Fascist artists get out of Europe in the nick of time.\n \n This exhibit introduces the University of Michigan to this intrepid group as exemplary case studies of the wide range of European photographers who used their cameras as passports to other worlds. It focuses first on their European experiences pre-emigration before turning to their escape from Europe on the S. S. Winnipeg (with three of them taking photos on board the ship). The exhibit concludes with examples of some of their initial photographic reactions to the new world\, seeing it through European eyes.\n \nIf there is anything we can do to make this event accessible to you\, please contact us. Please be aware that advance notice is necessary as some accommodations may require more time for the university to arrange.

In this exhibit\, internationally renowned Filipino artist Cian Dayrit acts as a counter-cartographer\, reclaiming mapmaking as an emancipatory activity.\n\nDayrit’s artworks\, embroidered on textiles or painted over collages of colonial-era maps\, plot the extraction of natural resources\, land grabbing\, and dispossession and displacement in his native Philippines. At the same time\, their resistant lines summon new imaginaries out of the overlaps between places and memories.\n\nDayrit’s practice is critically and practically informed by the narratives of Filipino communities. Items exhibited alongside his artwork are the result of map-drawing workshops the artist has convened with rural\, urban\, and indigenous communities across the Philippines. Propositions to Progress invites you to engage in the collaborative endeavor to activate alternative territories from the ground up.\n\nCian Dayrit is an interdisciplinary artist exploring colonialism and ethnography\, archaeology\, history\, and mythology. Dayrit subverts the language of the state\, museum\, and military to visualize the contradictions on which these institutions are built. He studied at the University of the Philippines.

Its youth group organizers aimed to bolster Palestinian unity across the systemic barriers — colonial divides\, military checkpoints\, walls\, etc. — that fragment the lives of people living in Palestine. \n\nSouq Stories: Gaza Lives brings us to present-day Gaza\, sharing the stories of\, and images captured by\, young journalists and photographers who have continued to document the realities of life in Palestine. It also honors one among them\, Fouad Abu Khammash\, who was killed in January 2024 in an Israeli bomb attack on Gaza.\n\n< The exhibit includes images of people suffering the aftermath of the ongoing violence. >\n\nThis exhibit was curated by Souq Stories team members Shareef Sarhan and Waed Abbas in partnership with U-M students Amir Marshi\, Zainab Hakim\, Mariam Odeh\, and Vivian M. Nguyen. It’s offered in conjunction with this year’s Palestine Awareness Week\, an annual series of educational events related to Palestinian history\, culture\, and politics.

Both Malallah and Karim were significantly influenced by their mentors during and after their training in Iraq\, and continue to share their work and ideas with a new generation today.\n\nIn the United States\, Iraq is typically spoken about in a passive position: colonized\, under despotic rule\, occupied. Post-occupied. Through connections between mentors and students\, and students who became mentors to new students\, Iraqi artists have been a force for anti-colonialism\, claiming their heritage and its future for themselves.\n\nView the exhibit Monday-Friday in the Fine Arts Library\, Tappan Hall\, 855 S.

It considers the process of germination as a site for the cross-pollination of ideas from diverse disciplines around the future of the built environment. \n\nAbout the artist:\nSusan Goethel Campbell creates multi-disciplinary work that considers the contemporary landscape to be an emergent system where nature\, culture\, and the engineered environment are indistinguishable from one another. Central to her practice is the collection\, documentation\, and observation of seasonal change and ephemera in both natural and artificial environments. Her work is realized in several formats\, including installation\, video\, prints\, and drawings\, as well as projects that engage communities to look at local and global environments.\n\nCampbell earned an MFA in printmaking from Cranbrook Academy of Art. Her work has been exhibited internationally in Belgium\, Germany\, Switzerland\, and Slovenia and nationally throughout the US\, including the National Museum of Women in the Arts\, Queens Art Museum\, Crystal Bridges Museum\, Museum of Contemporary Art Detroit\, Grand Rapids Art Museum\, the Detroit Institute of Arts\, The Drawing Center\, and The International Print Center New York. In 2009 she was one of 18 artists selected for the inaugural Kresge Artist Fellowship.\n\nCampbell has been awarded residencies at the Banff Centre for the Arts\, the Flemish Center for Graphic Arts\, the Jentel Foundation\, Beisinghoff Print Residency\, and the Print Research Institute of North Texas. She taught studio art for 15 years at the College for Creative Studies in Detroit and has been a visiting artist in numerous institutions in the United States and abroad. Her work is in the collection of the National Museum of Women in the Arts\, New York Public Library\, Detroit Institute of Arts\, Toledo Museum of Art\, and the University of Michigan Special Collections Library.\n\nThis project is made possible by a grant from the Mellon Foundation as part of the Institute for the Humanities' multi-year High Stakes Art initiative.

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.

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:114750-21833450@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.

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.

Even if all emissions ceased tomorrow\, atmospheric CO2 levels are already dangerously high and the climate would keep warming before it eventually stabilizes. We have to reduce or “capture” legacy CO2 to avert disaster. As the International Panel on Climate Change stated\, the *only* way we can meet our climate goal is to use carbon capture in our climate change fighting tool kit. \n\nMany of the products that we use every day are made with carbon. Treating legacy CO2 as a resource with economic value rather than a pollutant allows us to generate revenue while also fighting climate change. \n\nHowever\, not all uses or types of captured CO2 are equal in terms of environmental or economic benefits. This exhibit includes a video game that helps explain the pros and cons associated with different methods and applications of carbon capture. \n\nAdditionally\, it also provides examples of two types of carbon removal\, an interactive block activity\, and sample products made from captured CO2.

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:84303-21621233@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:20240227T132917 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20240314T110000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20240314T120000 SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Pre-Health Pathway: Charting Your Course Together DESCRIPTION:Pre-health students are welcome to this in-person event where Pre-Health Advisors will be available to give direct assistance for course registration specifically for the pre-health pathway for the spring & summer 2024 & fall 2024 terms.

During metabolic reactions\, thousands of metabolites are generated\, which are directly connected with cellular activities and highly conserved across species. In addition to their best-known functions as structural building blocks and energy resources\, research in Meng Wang's group focuses on their signaling roles in orchestrating organelle homeostasis\, coordinating microbe-host communication and extending lifespan and healthspan. Through harnessing the power of functional genetics and multi-omics\, their work uncovers several previously unknown metabolite-directed mechanisms in regulating somatic and reproductive longevity. These studies reveal the importance of metabolic signals in linking cellular dynamics and organism health during aging. \n\nMeng Wang\, Ph.D.\, received a B.S. from Peking University\, China in 2001 and a Ph.D. from the University of Rochester in 2005. After being a completing a postdoctoral fellowship at Harvard Medical School\, Wang joined the faculty of Baylor College of Medicine in 2010. Before moving to Janelia in 2022\, she was an HHMI Investigator\, a professor and the Robert C. Fyfe Endowed Chair on Aging at Baylor College of Medicine (BCM)\, as well as a co-director of the BCM Genetics and Genomics Graduate Program. \n\nWang’s research focuses on the molecular mechanisms governing somatic aging\, reproductive senescence and lipid metabolism\, and their sophisticated interrelationship\, through harnessing the power of functional genomics\, metabolomics\, chemical engineering and optical biophysics. Her group uncovered the first lysosome-to-nucleus retrograde lipid messenger pathway\, provided new regulatory mechanisms of reproductive longevity\, and demonstrated a novel mode of signaling communication between bacteria and mitochondria in regulating host’s lipid metabolism and longevity. Technological developments based on stimulated Raman scattering microscopy in Wang’s laboratory have provided new ways to visualize and track lipid molecules as a function of time and space in living cells and organisms. \n\nShe is the recipient of NIH Director’s Pioneer Award\, Peter O’Donnell Award\, and Gibco Emerging Leader Prize\, HHMI Faculty Scholar Award\, ASCB Gibco Emerging Leader Prize\, ASCB Early Career Life Scientist Award and SCBA Kenneth Fong Young Investigator Award. She is an elected fellow of American Association for the Advancement of Science.

It is a system of hierarchy and inequity primarily characterized by white supremacy—the preferential treatment\, privilege\, and power for white people at the expense of other racially oppressed people. It is also important to recognize that racism is a global issue and continues to be perpetuated in societies across the globe and it manifests in many different ways at various levels. This anti-racism workshop in an abroad context aims to offer an entryway for students to engage in observing how racism plays out in different societies outside the United States\, utilizing examples\, particularly media representation\, that may reflect deeper messages\, and what it means to be anti-racist for American students who have been abroad\, or may be visiting\, studying\, or traveling abroad.\n\n\nThis workshop will engage participants in the following activities:\nBetter understanding of the phrase “anti-racism”\nLearning about race and its nuances\nRecognizing how culture can shape the development of racism and power structures\nSeeing how media around the world uphold oppression in different ways\nCreating action steps toward actively recognizing oppression abroad\nThis workshop is designed for U-M master's students\, doctoral students\, and postdoctoral scholars on all three campuses\; therefore\, only U-M graduate students and postdoctoral scholars are permitted to register for this workshop. While this workshop is being facilitated on behalf of Rackham’s Diversity\, Equity\, and Inclusion Professional Development Certificate Program\, it is open to all U-M graduate students and postdoctoral scholars. For faculty and staff\, please contact rackhampdeworkshops@umich.edu to ask if we can accommodate your attendance.

However\, current AVs are designed to operate within (and limited by) a legacy system of laws\, liabilities\, licensing\, taxation\, control systems and normative behaviors built on the assumption that vehicles will have human drivers. In other words\, even if an AV may be able to go faster\, corner more tightly or safely maneuver around obstacles with a margin of error much smaller than human drivers\, they must remain restricted\, for now\, to maneuvers expected from a human-driven vehicle for two key reasons. First\, deviation from legacy norms would disrupt nearby human drivers\; second\, current AVs are simply not ready to self-organize outside our legacy system. By default\, then\, in the near-term we must rely on the speed limits\, lane lines\, stop signals and other rules of the road we have developed in a broadly ad hoc fashion in 100+ years of human-driven automobility. But once we have millions of AVs in motion at the same time and AVs are the norm not the exception\, are the legacy forms of general self-organization that compensate for the limitations of human drivers still practical\, or even desirable?\n\nDr. Karl Wunderlich\, Director of the Surface Transportation Systems Division at Noblis\, will join the first CCAT Distinguished Lecture of 2024 to discuss Noblis’ proposed broader ecosystem that includes transaction and trust management which is built on a decentralized distributed ledger solution. A reputational trust report for all vehicles is managed externally by a consortium of entities facilitating the ecosystem’s transactions. Value distribution in such a system may consider all parties facilitating aspects of the transaction\, including yielding priority\, providing\, and maintaining the maneuver space\, providing maneuver and sensor verification reports\, providing reliable position and timing data\, managing trust reports and recording transactions. Noblis is currently conducting research to examine the viability of such a system and its potential to address long-standing issues in equitable roadway system financial sustainability.\n---\nAbout the speaker: Dr. Wunderlich is the Director of the Surface Transportation Division at Noblis\, a not-for-profit system engineering and strategic planning firm. He also serves the Director of the Noblis Autonomous Systems Research Center in Reston\, VA. Dr. Wunderlich is an expert in the use of simulation techniques to evaluate the potential impact of emerging technologies to improve shared infrastructure system efficiency and productivity –including vehicle connectivity and cooperative autonomy.

Within engineering\, there has been an increase in the amount of research conducted on characterizing student mental health and understanding the influence of engineering culture on mental wellness. Research has shown that engineering students in mental health distress are less likely to have received professional help compared to their peers. This identifies a treatment gap for engineering students\, meaning that only a portion of those in mental health distress are seeking professional treatment. Addressing the treatment gap can improve the prognosis of mental health problems and reduce progression to more chronic or severe disorders. Through this talk\, I will present results of both qualitative and quantitative research studies aimed at better understanding the beliefs that engineering students have about seeking help for a mental health concern. In particular\, I will discuss barriers and facilitators to help-seeking including challenges in navigating the mental healthcare system\, the perception that help-seeking is a sacrifice of time and academics\, and the importance of mental health culture in engineering. Further\, I will talk about the influence of engineering student\, faculty and staff messaging on students’ beliefs about help seeking. Results of this work will provide guidance for intervention development to improve mental health related help-seeking in undergraduate engineering students.

The results of taxonomy (including systematics and phylogeny) are the foundational cornerstones for our understanding of how the world works\, and for how we can best conserve and protect a dynamic set of ecosystems for the future. My taxonomic work has focused on Solanum\, one of the largest genera of flowering plants\, and has involved making sometimes difficult linkages to diverse communities of scientists across plant biology. The size of Solanum\, with some 1\,250 currently recognised species means that assembling monophyletic groups of species and tackling these monographically has been thought to be too challenging\; big genera have been something for taxonomists to avoid. But the landscape is changing\, working with these large groups has significant advantages. Solanum also contains many species of agricultural importance\, often complicating primary taxonomy with a superfluity of names from the past. Of course\, this work has not been done alone\, but with a dynamic and exciting group all of whom have brought their skills and perspectives to the task in hand. In this talk I will take you through the journey we have made\, from a set of small taxonomically focused monographs and floras to studies involving genomes and advances in plant breeding. The path the Solanum group has taken is always centred in systematics – understanding species and their relationships. Large\, species-rich genera like Solanum are traditionally seen as problems\, but with a multidisciplinary approach that is broad-minded and open to new ideas and paths\, can reveal much about plant evolution. It can also bring systematics and taxonomy to the table as critical components of solutions to today’s societal and environmental problems.

In each time period\, their approach applies a stability principle to select a look-back window that maximizes the utilization of historical data while keeping the cumulative bias within an acceptable range relative to the stochastic error. Their theory showcases the adaptability of this approach to unknown non-stationarity. The regret bound is minimax optimal up to logarithmic factors when the population losses are strongly convex\, or Lipschitz only. At the heart of our analysis lie two novel components: a measure of similarity between functions and a segmentation technique for dividing the non-stationary data sequence into quasi-stationary pieces. The talk is based on joint work with Chengpiao Huang.\n\nBio: Kaizheng Wang is an assistant professor of Industrial Engineering and Operations Research\, and a member of the Data Science Institute at Columbia University. He works at the intersection of machine learning\, optimization and statistics. He received the SIAM Activity Group on Imaging Science Best Paper Prize in 2024\, and the Second Place Award in the 2023 INFORMS Data Mining Challenge.

This upward trend is expected to intensify due to the growing aging population worldwide. Research into modeling dementia encounters unique challenges\, including sparse data and complex non-linear interactions between variables and outcomes. In this talk\, I will share my recent work on employing artificial intelligence to unravel the mechanisms behind aging and dementia. This work leverages combined insights from data analysis and domain knowledge. Specifically\, for imaging-based analysis\, we have developed a novel \"subspace network\" approach. This technique employs efficient deep learning models for non-linear multi-task learning\, even with limited data. The subspace network incrementally refines predictions by sketching a low-dimensional subspace that facilitates knowledge transfer across tasks. Our empirical findings show that this method efficiently identifies the correct parameter subspaces and surpasses existing models in predicting clinical scores of dementia from brain imaging data. Additionally\, we explore the use of language markers in diagnosing dementia early. We introduce a novel reinforcement learning framework for training a dialogue agent that efficiently interacts with elderly individuals to detect signs of dementia. This agent optimizes conversations by generating a disease-specific lexical probability distribution\, aiming to increase diagnostic precision while minimizing the number of conversational turns needed. We have also developed a cross-modality learning framework that synergizes language markers with brain imaging data. By using a contrastive loss technique\, this framework aligns linguistic and imaging data\, enhancing the predictive accuracy of language-based markers with the help of auxiliary imaging variables derived from language.\n\nBio:\nJiayu Zhou is an Associate Professor in the Department of Computer Science and Engineering at Michigan State University.

Understanding the star formation law from molecular clouds to galaxies.\"\n\nIn this talk\, I will show that the variety of Kennicutt-Schmidt (KS) relations reported in the literature\, from molecular clouds in the Milky Way (MW) to resolved and unresolved galaxies\, is naturally explained by the very collapse of the molecular clouds. I will also show that the low values and the constancy of the (wrongly named) “efficiency per free-fall time” arise naturally when the clouds collapse. Putting all together\, our results imply that star formation is fast and efficient and that molecular cloud turbulence\, the pressure in the midplane of the galaxies\, their rotation\, or other physical agents are not the primary drivers of the star formation law but only slight modification over the main law\, namely\, that the star formation rate is proportional to the mass in collapsing gas. However\, stellar feedback is crucial to halt star formation\, keeping the gas depletion time low on galactic levels. I will show\, finally\, that the properties of collapsing clouds and the kinematical properties of their newborn stellar clusters\, as inferred from Gaia DR3 data\, are consistent with these KS relations.

The closed GL-variety arising from taking the limit of the singular points in the corresponding Vec-variety.\n2. The locus of points where the module of Kähler differential is not flat.\n3.

In the three-dimensional case\, this problem turns out to be critical\, exhibiting a phase transition according to the size of the coupling constant. In the weakly coupling region\, the Gibbs measure can be constructed as a probability measure\, which is singular with respect to the Gaussian free field. On the other hand\, in the strong coupling case\, the Gibbs measure can not be normalized as a probability measure. In particular\, the finite-dimensional truncated Gibbs measures have no weak limit\, even up to a subsequence.

In this talk I will discuss two physics topics that can be addressed through harnessing topotactic transformations in transition metal oxides. First\, infinite-layer nickelate superconductors (RNiO_2 ) are synthesised by topotactically reducing their perovskite (RNiO_3 ) counterparts. This enables the unfavourable Ni+ ion and unlocks a novel family of unconventional superconductors [1]. In particular I will focus on results from low-energy muon spin rotation [2] that reveal local magnetism in these materials that 1) onsets at rather high temperature\, 2) is independent of the rare earth 4f electrons\, 3) appears to be robust to doping 4) is antiferromagnetic and possibly short-range-ordered in nature and 5) coexists with superconductivity at low temperatures. From these conclusions we can make some comparisons with the nominally-similar copper-oxide superconductors.\n\nSecondly\, perovskite alkali earth ferrites (AFe ^{4+} O_3) are fascinating helimagnetic compounds\, proposed to host a high density skyrmion lattice despite the chemical centrosymmetry [3]. Topotactic oxidation of the more stable Fe^{3+} material\, AFeO_{2.5}\, is necessary to synthesise high quality samples. I will touch briefly on our recent work to map out the helimagnetic phases in temperature\, magnetic field and\, now\, biaxial strain. \n\n[1] D. Li et al\, Nature 572 (2019) 624\n[2] J.

This technology enables the visualization of molecular pathology directly in tissues by combining the specificity of mass spectrometry with the spatial fidelity of microscopic imaging. This label-free methodology has proven exceptionally useful in research areas such as cancer diagnosis\, diabetes\, and infectious disease. However\, state-of-the-art experiments stress the limits of current analytical technologies\, necessitating improvements in molecular specificity and sensitivity in order to answer increasingly complicated biological and clinical hypotheses. Especially when studying lipids\, many isobaric (i.e.\, same nominal mass) and isomeric (i.e.\, same exact mass) compounds exist that complicate spectral analysis\, with each structure having a potentially unique cellular function. The Prentice Lab develops instrumentation and novel gas-phase reactions to provide unparalleled levels of chemical resolution. These gas-phase transformations are fast\, efficient\, and specific\, making them ideally suited for implementation into imaging mass spectrometry workflows. For example\, these workflows have enabled the identification of multiple sn-positional phosphatidylcholine isomers\, the separation of isobaric phosphatidylserines and sulfatides\, and the identification of fatty acid double bond isomers using a variety of charge transfer and covalent ion/ion reactions as well as ion/electron and ion/photon reactions. Working with biologists and clinicians\, we then leverage these novel imaging technologies to understand the molecular events associated with important problems in human health\, including infectious disease\, diabetes\, and neurodegenerative diseases.

Belin Lecture - Toward a Jewish American Art History DESCRIPTION:5:30 PM Reception | 6:00 PM Lecture | 7:30 PM Book Signing\n\nThe Frankel Center's 34 Annual Davin W. Belin Lecture with Dr. Samantha Baskind (Cleveland State University) traces the opportunities and challenges of working in a young field––Jewish American art––through a handful of case studies\, with special emphasis on painter Raphael Soyer and sculptor Moses Jacob Ezekiel. More broadly\, the canon of twentieth-century American art boasts a disproportionate number of Jewish artists as compared to the country’s population\, a phenomenon only recently addressed. Artists as diverse as Abstract Expressionist Barnett Newman\, fashion photographer Richard Avedon\, and Photorealist Audrey Flack\, among dozens of others\, adopted Jewish subject matter. They sometimes did so overtly and at times that Jewishness was encoded\, yet those Jewish dimensions have been largely overlooked. Simultaneously an excavation of unfairly neglected artists and an investigation of the understudied religio-cultural dimension of celebrated artists––and even an effort to accord legitimacy to a subfield of art history––Jewish American art is a subject rich in material and long overdue for exploration.

However\, the image of the Gypsy is so deeply ingrained in Polish consciousness and culture that it serves as a constant fixture in a conceptual museum\, meticulously preserved\, yet frequently incongruous with reality.\n\n This lecture focuses on language as it reflects\, describes\, creates\, shapes\, and replicates the relationship between the Romani ethnic minority and the Polish ethnic majority. The presented analysis of various internet genres (including online discussions\, advertisements\, social media comments\, and memes) places this language use within the broader context of the ongoing Polish discourse on the position and role of ethnic and national minorities within contemporary Polish society. This diverse collection of statements reveals multiple threads of discourse\, spanning from the presence of Romani culture in folk rituals and traditions\, to the illusory semblance of tolerance and acceptance in a largely monocultural society\, as well as issues related to ethics and values\, such as attitudes towards work\, public property\, and ethnic identity.\n \n Ewa Małachowska-Pasek\, PhD\, is Ladislav Matějka Collegiate Lecturer and lecturer in Polish and Czech Studies in the Department of Slavic Languages and Literatures at U-M. Her research focuses on language acquisition\, Critical Language Studies\, and Romani Studies. She teaches Polish and Czech and courses on the Roma minority in Central Europe. She is a co-founder and board member of the North American Association of Teachers of Polish\, and the co-translator of *The Romance of Teresa Hennert* by Zofia Nałkowska and *The Career of Nicodemus Dyzma* by Tadeusz Dołęga-Mostowicz (winner of the 2021 Found in Translation Award). Prior to her work at U-M\, she worked in the Polish Language Institute at the Polish Academy of Sciences in Warsaw.\n\nIf there is anything we can do to make this event accessible to you\, please contact us.

An artist\, costume designer\, set designer\, singer/songwriter\, art director\, and maker\, Machine describes himself as a “radical queer emotionally driven\, instinct-based concept artist and thinker trapped in the role of costume designer\, sometimes.” Machine designs intricate\, unconventional wearable art pieces and bespoke installations.\n As a stage designer\, Machine has collaborated with artists from the New York downtown scene and beyond. Machine’s costumes and sets were featured in Taylor Mac’s Pulitzer Prize-nominated A 24-Decade History of Popular Music (a documentary film about which is currently streaming on Max). In 2019\, Dazzle was commissioned by the Guggenheim Museum and The Rockefeller Brothers Fund to create Treasure\, a rock and roll cabaret of original songs with an accompanying fashion show\, which debuted at Joe'\;s Pub in New York City in the fall of 2022. That same season\, he opened his first solo exhibition\, Queer Maximalism x Machine Dazzle\, at New York City'\;s Museum of Arts and Design. He won the 2017 Henry Hewes Design Award\, was a 2022 United States Artists Fellow\, and most recently won the 2023 Obie for sustained achievement in design.\nMachine is the recipient of 2023-2024 Roman J. Witt Residency\, and has been commissioned by UMMA and Stamps to create his first major museum commission\, a new sculptural installation called Ouroboros. The sculpture will evolve over three chapters from March through July 2024\, and use trash recovered from local waterways as its primary material to contemplate our own extravagant cycles of life\, death\, waste\, and rebirth.

The exhibit consists of 750 objects\, a comic book mural\, interactive displays and 33 personal profiles of people along the cellphone’s global supply chain from 35 countries. Drawing inspiration from the relational perspectives of Indigenous world-making in Oceania\, as well as the moral and ethical obligations of political ecology\, this exhibit demonstrates how natural history is about\, and for\, everyone.\n\nhttps://ummsp.rackham.umich.edu/tribe-event/unseen-connections-a-natural-history-of-the-cellphone/ UID:119438-21842766@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/119438 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Anthropology,Exhibition,Graduate School,Museum,Visual Arts LOCATION:North Quad - 2435 CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20240329T123137 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20240314T174500 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20240314T184500 SUMMARY:Careers / Jobs:SMBC Information Session at University of Michigan DESCRIPTION:Join us Thursday\, March 14 for an introduction to SMBC - our firm\, our businesses\, and our culture.

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.

Camera as Passport: The Ship of Photographers DESCRIPTION:Starting in 1933 when Hitler and the Nazis came to power\, a cadre of European Jews—German\, Polish\, Hungarian\, Austrian\, French—discovered that a camera could be their passport\, first out of Germany and then out of Europe. Some of these women and men had been planning one type of career—lawyer\, journalist\, painter\, musician—but then realized that they needed to find another way to earn a living. Taking photographs presented a sufficiently malleable opportunity that not only allowed them to leave Germany and then Europe but also to have a means to sustain themselves in foreign countries where they did not necessarily speak the language.\n \n They did\, however\, mobilize the visual language of photography. For a number of these figures\, forced migration became an asset during the golden age of photojournalism wherein their portable services were employed to supply picture stories on the move and around the world. Many of these Jews became influential photographers\, shaping how their contemporaries saw the world. Looking back on their work\, we can see how they have influenced our understanding of the modern world even as we can recognize their photographs as a significant component of modern Jewish visual culture.\n \n Of the dozens of photographers who fled Europe\, eight escaped on a single ship. The S. S. Winnipeg sailed from Marseille\, France on May 7\, 1941. Germany had already conquered both eastern and western Europe and was poised to invade the Soviet Union. The United States was not yet in the war. Among the 750 refugees aboard were photographers from Hungary\, Belgium\, France\, and Germany: Ilse Bing\, Josef Breitenbach\, Boris Lipnitsky\, Charles Leirens\, Yolla Niclas\, Fred Stein\, Monie Tannen\, and Ylla (Camilla Henriette Koffler). During lifeboat drills\, they discovered each other. Some of them narrowly escaped Vichy France under the auspices of the American journalist Varian Fry and the New York-based Emergency Rescue Committee that helped so many Jewish and anti-Fascist artists get out of Europe in the nick of time.\n \n This exhibit introduces the University of Michigan to this intrepid group as exemplary case studies of the wide range of European photographers who used their cameras as passports to other worlds. It focuses first on their European experiences pre-emigration before turning to their escape from Europe on the S. S. Winnipeg (with three of them taking photos on board the ship). The exhibit concludes with examples of some of their initial photographic reactions to the new world\, seeing it through European eyes.\n \nIf there is anything we can do to make this event accessible to you\, please contact us. Please be aware that advance notice is necessary as some accommodations may require more time for the university to arrange.

In this exhibit\, internationally renowned Filipino artist Cian Dayrit acts as a counter-cartographer\, reclaiming mapmaking as an emancipatory activity.\n\nDayrit’s artworks\, embroidered on textiles or painted over collages of colonial-era maps\, plot the extraction of natural resources\, land grabbing\, and dispossession and displacement in his native Philippines. At the same time\, their resistant lines summon new imaginaries out of the overlaps between places and memories.\n\nDayrit’s practice is critically and practically informed by the narratives of Filipino communities. Items exhibited alongside his artwork are the result of map-drawing workshops the artist has convened with rural\, urban\, and indigenous communities across the Philippines. Propositions to Progress invites you to engage in the collaborative endeavor to activate alternative territories from the ground up.\n\nCian Dayrit is an interdisciplinary artist exploring colonialism and ethnography\, archaeology\, history\, and mythology. Dayrit subverts the language of the state\, museum\, and military to visualize the contradictions on which these institutions are built. He studied at the University of the Philippines.

It considers the process of germination as a site for the cross-pollination of ideas from diverse disciplines around the future of the built environment. \n\nAbout the artist:\nSusan Goethel Campbell creates multi-disciplinary work that considers the contemporary landscape to be an emergent system where nature\, culture\, and the engineered environment are indistinguishable from one another. Central to her practice is the collection\, documentation\, and observation of seasonal change and ephemera in both natural and artificial environments. Her work is realized in several formats\, including installation\, video\, prints\, and drawings\, as well as projects that engage communities to look at local and global environments.\n\nCampbell earned an MFA in printmaking from Cranbrook Academy of Art. Her work has been exhibited internationally in Belgium\, Germany\, Switzerland\, and Slovenia and nationally throughout the US\, including the National Museum of Women in the Arts\, Queens Art Museum\, Crystal Bridges Museum\, Museum of Contemporary Art Detroit\, Grand Rapids Art Museum\, the Detroit Institute of Arts\, The Drawing Center\, and The International Print Center New York. In 2009 she was one of 18 artists selected for the inaugural Kresge Artist Fellowship.\n\nCampbell has been awarded residencies at the Banff Centre for the Arts\, the Flemish Center for Graphic Arts\, the Jentel Foundation\, Beisinghoff Print Residency\, and the Print Research Institute of North Texas. She taught studio art for 15 years at the College for Creative Studies in Detroit and has been a visiting artist in numerous institutions in the United States and abroad.

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).

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.

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:114750-21833451@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.

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.

Calibration weighting is a popular tool for incorporating the auxiliary information. The calibration weighting method of Deville and Sarndal (1992) uses a distance measure between the design weights and the final weights to solve the optimization problem with calibration constraints.\n\nIn this paper\, we propose a new framework using generalized entropy as the objective function for optimization. Design weights are used in the constraints\, rather than in the objective function\, to achieve design consistency. The new calibration framework is attractive as it is general and can produce more efficient calibration weights than the classical calibration weights. Furthermore\, we identify the optimal choice of the generalized entropy function that achieves the minimum variance among the different choices of the generalized entropy function under the same constraints. Asymptotic properties\, such as design consistency and asymptotic normality\, are presented rigorously. An extension of the proposed method to doubly robust propensity score estimation will also be presented.

This innovation promises efficient urban and regional transportation by bypassing ground congestion\, reducing emissions\, and enhancing connectivity. As efficient and safe transportation is vital for national well-being\, we face challenges that must be addressed. Our research contributes to the development of a safe and efficient AAM operational framework by offering novel solutions for airspace management\, contingency planning\, and optimal traffic network strategies. This presentation will highlight two key chapters of our work: 1. Assured contingency landing management\, providing solutions for distressed AAM scenarios\, and 2. Centralized and distributed AAM traffic management\, incorporating various constraints for seamless AAM operations.

Even if all emissions ceased tomorrow\, atmospheric CO2 levels are already dangerously high and the climate would keep warming before it eventually stabilizes. We have to reduce or “capture” legacy CO2 to avert disaster. As the International Panel on Climate Change stated\, the *only* way we can meet our climate goal is to use carbon capture in our climate change fighting tool kit. \n\nMany of the products that we use every day are made with carbon. Treating legacy CO2 as a resource with economic value rather than a pollutant allows us to generate revenue while also fighting climate change. \n\nHowever\, not all uses or types of captured CO2 are equal in terms of environmental or economic benefits. This exhibit includes a video game that helps explain the pros and cons associated with different methods and applications of carbon capture. \n\nAdditionally\, it also provides examples of two types of carbon removal\, an interactive block activity\, and sample products made from captured CO2.

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’....

This new spotlight surfaces research that has been conducted by many scholars for much longer\, highlighting their commitment to telling stories and honoring perspectives of diverse and minority communities. Their work reveals that while there is no unified queer experience in the region\, there is often a one-size-fits all state response to the reality of queer lives in many nations within the region. How can a queer-studies focus advance conversations about decolonization in East European and Eurasian Studies? To address this question\, Queer Focus will have six virtual panels featuring speakers from various disciplines and institutions. Panelists and participants will explore how gendered regimes were constitutive of Russo-centric relationships of power\, defining the region and how we study it\, as we collectively grapple with what it means to re-examine our current research\, teaching\, and institutional practices.\n\n*Panel 6 of the series will examine the role and impact of queer activism within the region.* UID:117927-21840199@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/117927 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:eastern europe,Gender,International LOCATION:Off Campus Location CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20240315T102049 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20240315T110000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20240315T114500 SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Michigan IT Wilson Center Tour DESCRIPTION:This isa special 45-minute tour of the Wilson Student Project Center for members of the Michigan IT community.

The Early Start Denver Model (ESDM) is an evidence-based treatment model for young children with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD). The group is designed for parents and caregivers with children ages 5 and under who have diagnosed or suspected ASD or a Developmental Delay.\n\nThe parent training group is designed to teach parents these strategies to increase the number of intervention hours that young children receive. A secondary goal is to support parents of children with ASD/Developmental Delays and help them develop a community of parents in a similar life stage. Since it is a parent training group\, children are welcome but not required to attend.\n\nRequirements:\n1. In order to enroll in the group\, the caregiver must have a child ages 5 or under who has diagnosed or suspected Autism Spectrum Disorder or developmental delay (e.g. speech delay\, Global Developmental Delay etc). \n\n2. Participating families must attend one group screening/orientation session prior to the start of the group\, to ensure that they are a good fit for the group. This initial screening appointment will last approximately 30-45 minutes.\n\nWhen: 12 – 1 p.m. Fridays\, beginning January 26 (10 weeks).\nWhere: Online via Zoom\n\nProspective clients should call UCCF at (734) 615-7853 to schedule their orientation/screening appointment.

Observed for centuries in captive Asian elephants used in warfare\, musth was first documented in wild African elephants in the 1980s. Meanwhile\, skeletal pathologies that apparently resulted from male-male fighting in mammoths and mastodons have for decades been interpreted as evidence that extinct relatives of living elephants also experienced musth\, and new analyses of testosterone preserved in tusk dentin corroborate these interpretations. Measurements performed on tusk samples using liquid chromatography with tandem mass spectrometry show that woolly mammoth bulls had annual surges in testosterone that matched those indicative of musth episodes in modern elephants. In addition to documenting musth in a third elephant species\, these data show that dental remains preserve steroid hormones that can persist for thousands of years and can be used to study endocrine physiology in paleobiological and archaeological contexts.\n\nIf there is anything we can do to make this event accessible to you\, please contact us.

While probabilistic inference offers a diagnosable framework to reason about these poses over time\, it currently lacks any explicit modeling of ambiguity or doubt. We introduce deep evidential reasoning to nonparametric Bayesian inference by representing ambiguity and doubt alongside the filter’s belief distribution.\n\nThis dissertation focuses on alleviating particle deprivation within nonparametric Bayesian inference for high degree-of-freedom pose estimation and tracking from monocular video. We present the counter-hypothetical particle filter\, which independently quantifies the disqualifying evidence against its particle set to detect failure mode and redistribute its samples. Our work then extends differentiable nonparametric belief propagation to model ambiguity as well as doubt—creating a hierarchy of the usefulness of the observations at each node.

Results indicate that a female instructor significantly cuts down GPD for quantitative courses by raising the relative grades of female students. In addition\, female instructors increase women’s interest and performance expectations in these courses and are perceived as role models by their female students. These results provide support for a gender stereotype process for GPD and show that faculty can serve as powerful exemplars to challenge gender stereotypes and increase student achievement. Prof. Orhun will then briefly overview her current work exploring gender inequities in higher education\, health\, and labor contexts.

How can a dead organism pressed on a bit of paper be of any use in addressing an urgent societal challenge especially in the face of widespread habitat loss in the tropics? Most of the world’s tropical plant species are known from five or fewer digitally available herbarium specimens\, with significant implications for all downstream analyses using species distribution data\, including conservation assessments\, biogeographic analyses\, protected area planning\, and taxonomic accounts. Digitized herbarium specimens\, however\, are biased. Specimens in large\, historical herbaria in richer countries are much more likely to be databased\, available online\, and imaged and therefore verifiable. Many such herbaria have a long colonial legacy and in many cases the bulk of their collections are online but often have\nbeen collected long ago. Conversely\, specimens in smaller\, local herbaria in poorer\, tropical countries are much less likely to be available online but have usually been collected much more recently\, however\, specimens in local herbaria are much less likely to be included in downstream analyses\, meaning local investigator’s contributions are less likely to be included\, with potential impacts on their careers. Using datasets of Begonia and Solanum from Perú I will explore the disproportionate contribution of local herbaria and botanists to our knowledge of tropical plant distributions\, and link this to the need for prioritization of these institutions for digital access and the importance of equity in science.

These surfaces are composed of alternating solid portions\, grooves\, or air pockets\, leading to enhanced slip\, and are particularly relevant for microfluidic device design. While BIE methods offer advantages in SH flow computations\, problems involving SH surfaces present challenges due to flow singularities resulting from complex surface microstructures. These challenges include mixed boundary conditions and geometric corners\, causing standard quadrature rules for smooth integrals to suffer from severe accuracy loss. Although often used adaptive mesh refinement can mitigate this issue\, it tends to grow the size of discretization significantly\, and has difficulties in achieving satisfactory accuracy due to linear system ill-conditioning. To resolve these issues\, we combine the Recursively Compressed Inverse Preconditioning (RCIP) method with a scaling technique\, kernel-split quadratures\, and the Fast Multipole Method. This incorporation yields a fast and accurate numerical scheme for SH flow computations. We demonstrate the effectiveness of our method through several illustrative examples.

The first part of the talk will be devoted to their discussions on the essence of colors. As I will show\, early phenomenologists argue that colors are physical entities according to their essence\; more precisely\, they are primitive physical entities. In this respect\, early phenomenologists reject subjectivism about colors\, that is\, the thesis that colors are subjective or psychic entities as opposed to physical ones. In the second part of the talk\, I will briefly present the views of early phenomenologists on the existence of colors. As I will argue\, these authors think that the question of what colors are according to their essence is independent of the question of whether they exist in the outer world or not. In the third part of the talk\, I will ask how early phenomenologists can ground truths about the nature of colors\, in particular the truth that colors are physical\, if these truths are independent of whether colors exist in the outer world\, and thus hold even if they do not.

First introduced by Forman\, discrete Morse theory is an adaptation of Morse theory for regular CW-complexes. It gives a schematic for collapsing cells in a CW-complex while maintaining the same homotopy type. On the other hand\, symmetric Delta-complexes are a generalization of cell-complexes. They are topological spaces built from quotients of standard simplices\, and they have played important roles in recent developments of tropical geometry. We generalize various concepts from discrete Morse theory\, including discrete Morse functions and acyclic matchings on face posets\, and prove parallel theorems for symmetric Delta-complexes. We also apply this new theory to the moduli space of tropical abelian varieties.

Trautmann Honorary Lecture | The Exemption that Proves the Rule: Reading Law Between the Lines of South Asian Foundation Charters DESCRIPTION:This talk presents examples of how medieval South Asian inscriptions\, though created to address quite particular circumstances and to serve immediate purposes\, can be analyzed to disclose otherwise unrecorded laws and legal principles that had general validity at the time of their inscribing. It will focus on foundation charters: grant decrees that confer on the beneficiary property rights that can include tax exemption and various other immunities and privileges\, including a degree of juridical autonomy. By carving out exemptions to otherwise applicable rules and norms\, such charters allow us to reconstruct some of what is implicit: the laws generally enforced by royal and other civil authorities. Furthermore\, they tell us some important things about the relationship between religion and state.\n \n Timothy Lubin is the Jessie Ball duPont Professor of Religion\, Adjunct Professor of Law\, and Head of the Law\, Justice and Society program at Washington and Lee University. With degrees from Columbia University (BA\, and PhD in the study of religion) and Harvard University (MTS)\, he taught earlier at Harvard and the University of Virginia. He has published widely on shifts in Brahmanical doctrine and ritual in ancient and medieval South Asia\, the propagation of Dharmaśāstra (sacred law) and juridical norms reflected in inscriptions\, and how these were appropriated in diverse regions including Nepal and Southeast Asia\, where they inflected and were in turn transformed by local traditions. This work informs his contributions to the comparative study of premodern law.\n \nIf there is anything we can do to make this event accessible to you\, please contact us.

Jessi works using the methods of discourse analysis\, sociophonetics\, and quantitative variationist analysis\, and especially the intersections thereof. \n\nTITLE\nThe Art of Invention\n\nABSTRACT \nThis talk addresses one of the thorniest questions facing new graduate students: where do I get good ideas and how do I develop them in useful ways? Using my own career as a case study\, I'll talk about successes and failures\, and unexpected detours and I'll demonstrate 7 techniques of idea generation which have shaped my work. We'll also talk about what it means to get a Ph.D. more generally and I'll give five tips about how to interact with your work and others in ways that produce scholarly output\, can make the process of becoming a Ph.D. straightforward and perhaps\, even fun. \n\nJoin us in person or virtually UID:119694-21843417@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/119694 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Free LOCATION:East Hall - 4448 CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20240226T151752 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20240315T160000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20240315T190000 SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Los Hijos Film Collective DESCRIPTION:Film collective Los hijos was founded in 2008.

This question remained open for 25 years until Bartholdi–Nekrashevych solved in in 2006. In this talk\, I highlight work with Mukundan and with Lanier that uses the combinatorial topological algorithm developed with Belk\, Lanier\, and Margalit to solve higher degree analogues of Hubbard's twisted rabbit problem. Our solutions reveal structure within unicritical degree-d polynomials in which the critical point is periodic and introduce accessible questions. This is a joint meeting of the dynamics seminar + the geometry seminar.

From the tender “Te recuerdo” (I remember you) to the rumbling subway sounds of “Metro Asfixia\;” from the ironic rap\, “This Doesn’t Happen at Michigan\,” to the foot-stomping chorus\, “It’s Not My Fault\,” this audience-engaging production is both mesmerizing and memorable.\n\nOur production team – led by GRAMMY-nominated artistic director and composer Pamela Ruiter-Feenstra with award-winning journalists Ana Ávila and María Arce\, and athlete Tad DeLuca – co-created new material for *Ni une más* with survivors. The title is based on a slogan used in many Latin American countries to stand up to domestic violence and femicide. As gender-based violence is a local and global health crisis\, we move this often-silenced topic to the spotlight to transform trauma into healing power through the arts.\n\n*Ni une más* was made possible by a grant from the Arts Initiative at the University of Michigan\, and is co-sponsored by the Office of Diversity\, Equity & Inclusion\; the School of Music\, Theatre & Dance’s Research Catalyst and Innovation Grant\; The Institute for Research on Women and Gender\; the CEW+ Frances & Sydney Lewis Visiting Leaders Fund\; Communications & Media\; Sexual Assault Prevention and Awareness Center\; Sociology\; Bethlehem United Church of Christ\; and Avalon Healing Center (Detroit).

In this exhibit\, internationally renowned Filipino artist Cian Dayrit acts as a counter-cartographer\, reclaiming mapmaking as an emancipatory activity.\n\nDayrit’s artworks\, embroidered on textiles or painted over collages of colonial-era maps\, plot the extraction of natural resources\, land grabbing\, and dispossession and displacement in his native Philippines. At the same time\, their resistant lines summon new imaginaries out of the overlaps between places and memories.\n\nDayrit’s practice is critically and practically informed by the narratives of Filipino communities. Items exhibited alongside his artwork are the result of map-drawing workshops the artist has convened with rural\, urban\, and indigenous communities across the Philippines. Propositions to Progress invites you to engage in the collaborative endeavor to activate alternative territories from the ground up.\n\nCian Dayrit is an interdisciplinary artist exploring colonialism and ethnography\, archaeology\, history\, and mythology. Dayrit subverts the language of the state\, museum\, and military to visualize the contradictions on which these institutions are built. He studied at the University of the Philippines.

Its youth group organizers aimed to bolster Palestinian unity across the systemic barriers — colonial divides\, military checkpoints\, walls\, etc. — that fragment the lives of people living in Palestine. \n\nSouq Stories: Gaza Lives brings us to present-day Gaza\, sharing the stories of\, and images captured by\, young journalists and photographers who have continued to document the realities of life in Palestine.

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).

Even if all emissions ceased tomorrow\, atmospheric CO2 levels are already dangerously high and the climate would keep warming before it eventually stabilizes. We have to reduce or “capture” legacy CO2 to avert disaster. As the International Panel on Climate Change stated\, the *only* way we can meet our climate goal is to use carbon capture in our climate change fighting tool kit. \n\nMany of the products that we use every day are made with carbon. Treating legacy CO2 as a resource with economic value rather than a pollutant allows us to generate revenue while also fighting climate change. \n\nHowever\, not all uses or types of captured CO2 are equal in terms of environmental or economic benefits. This exhibit includes a video game that helps explain the pros and cons associated with different methods and applications of carbon capture. \n\nAdditionally\, it also provides examples of two types of carbon removal\, an interactive block activity\, and sample products made from captured CO2.

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:114750-21833452@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.

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:86001-21795837@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:20240130T121551 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20240316T110000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20240316T200000 SUMMARY:Exhibition:Unsettling Histories: Legacies of Slavery and Colonialism DESCRIPTION:Organized as a response to the Museum’s recent acquisition of Titus Kaphar’s Flay (James Madison)\, this upcoming reinstallation of one of our most prominent gallery spaces forces us to grapple with our collection of European and American art\, 1650-1850.\n \nIn recent times\, growing public awareness of the continued reverberations of the legacy of slavery and colonization has challenged museums to examine the uncomfortable histories contained in our collections\, and challenged the public to probe the choices we make about those stories. 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:84303-21621235@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:20240405T192228 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20240316T113000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20240316T121500 SUMMARY:Presentation:Sea Monsters DESCRIPTION:Journey 80 million years back in time to an age when ferocious prehistoric creatures swarm\, hunt\, and fight for survival beneath the vast\, mysterious seas.\n\nStunning\, realistic imagery recreates the perilous underwater realm of two young\, dolphin-sized marine reptiles called Dolichorhynchops\, and their journey among the most awesome predators ever to prowl the oceans.

From the tender “Te recuerdo” (I remember you) to the rumbling subway sounds of “Metro Asfixia\;” from the ironic rap\, “This Doesn’t Happen at Michigan\,” to the foot-stomping chorus\, “It’s Not My Fault\,” this audience-engaging production is both mesmerizing and memorable.\n\nOur production team – led by GRAMMY-nominated artistic director and composer Pamela Ruiter-Feenstra with award-winning journalists Ana Ávila and María Arce\, and athlete Tad DeLuca – co-created new material for *Ni une más* with survivors. The title is based on a slogan used in many Latin American countries to stand up to domestic violence and femicide. As gender-based violence is a local and global health crisis\, we move this often-silenced topic to the spotlight to transform trauma into healing power through the arts.\n\n*Ni une más* was made possible by a grant from the Arts Initiative at the University of Michigan\, and is co-sponsored by the Office of Diversity\, Equity & Inclusion\; the School of Music\, Theatre & Dance’s Research Catalyst and Innovation Grant\; The Institute for Research on Women and Gender\; the CEW+ Frances & Sydney Lewis Visiting Leaders Fund\; Communications & Media\; Sexual Assault Prevention and Awareness Center\; Sociology\; Bethlehem United Church of Christ\; and Avalon Healing Center (Detroit).

The lines between love\, sex\, and friendship blur\, with platonic and romantic love playing equally vital roles. Hope and community are the throughlines that keep the show moving forward.

Demos that ended up as finished tracks. New beginnings\, rear-view reflections\, and ruminations on the fluidity of time: Great Lake Swimmers’ eighth album\, “Uncertain Country\,” captures these feelings and so much more.\nThis celebration\, 11-songs long\, follows a prolonged period of collective anxiety. Though recorded in different locales—and with a variety of musicians—a theme of questioning runs throughout. Even before the world turned upside down\, singer-songwriter Tony Dekker felt mired in uncertainty: from the climate crisis and the ever-changing political landscape to deep shifts within the music industry. The “uncertain country” Dekker chose as the album’s theme is not a specific place. Rather\, it’s a territory we\, as humans\, inhabit in the 21st century — a world that\, more often than not\, is confusing\, unfamiliar and unsettling.\nThe long journey from there to here started more than three years ago\, when Dekker took a 10-day trip to one of his favorite places: the north shore of Lake Superior. A pair of friends and collaborators: Adam CK Vollick (who filmed the experience) and Joe Lapinski (who co-produced Uncertain Country) joined him. On this immersive trip\, the songwriter soaked in the beauty of the landscapes and learned the stories of the people who have inhabited them since time immemorial.\n\nPlease visit https://mutotix.umich.edu/4600/4601 for more detail.

In this exhibit\, internationally renowned Filipino artist Cian Dayrit acts as a counter-cartographer\, reclaiming mapmaking as an emancipatory activity.\n\nDayrit’s artworks\, embroidered on textiles or painted over collages of colonial-era maps\, plot the extraction of natural resources\, land grabbing\, and dispossession and displacement in his native Philippines. At the same time\, their resistant lines summon new imaginaries out of the overlaps between places and memories.\n\nDayrit’s practice is critically and practically informed by the narratives of Filipino communities. Items exhibited alongside his artwork are the result of map-drawing workshops the artist has convened with rural\, urban\, and indigenous communities across the Philippines. Propositions to Progress invites you to engage in the collaborative endeavor to activate alternative territories from the ground up.\n\nCian Dayrit is an interdisciplinary artist exploring colonialism and ethnography\, archaeology\, history\, and mythology. Dayrit subverts the language of the state\, museum\, and military to visualize the contradictions on which these institutions are built. He studied at the University of the Philippines.

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).

Even if all emissions ceased tomorrow\, atmospheric CO2 levels are already dangerously high and the climate would keep warming before it eventually stabilizes. We have to reduce or “capture” legacy CO2 to avert disaster. As the International Panel on Climate Change stated\, the *only* way we can meet our climate goal is to use carbon capture in our climate change fighting tool kit. \n\nMany of the products that we use every day are made with carbon. Treating legacy CO2 as a resource with economic value rather than a pollutant allows us to generate revenue while also fighting climate change. \n\nHowever\, not all uses or types of captured CO2 are equal in terms of environmental or economic benefits. This exhibit includes a video game that helps explain the pros and cons associated with different methods and applications of carbon capture. \n\nAdditionally\, it also provides examples of two types of carbon removal\, an interactive block activity\, and sample products made from captured CO2.

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:107870-21817757@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:20240317T110000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20240317T200000 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:114750-21833453@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.

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:86001-21795838@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:20240130T121551 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20240317T110000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20240317T200000 SUMMARY:Exhibition:Unsettling Histories: Legacies of Slavery and Colonialism DESCRIPTION:Organized as a response to the Museum’s recent acquisition of Titus Kaphar’s Flay (James Madison)\, this upcoming reinstallation of one of our most prominent gallery spaces forces us to grapple with our collection of European and American art\, 1650-1850.\n \nIn recent times\, growing public awareness of the continued reverberations of the legacy of slavery and colonization has challenged museums to examine the uncomfortable histories contained in our collections\, and challenged the public to probe the choices we make about those stories. 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:84303-21621236@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:20240317T121535 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20240317T110000 SUMMARY:Sporting Event:Women's Tennis vs Penn State DESCRIPTION:Women's Tennis vs Penn State UID:119333-21842578@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/119333 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Athletics,Athletics - Women's Tennis LOCATION:Varsity Tennis Bldg CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20240405T192228 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20240317T113000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20240317T121500 SUMMARY:Presentation:Sea Monsters DESCRIPTION:Journey 80 million years back in time to an age when ferocious prehistoric creatures swarm\, hunt\, and fight for survival beneath the vast\, mysterious seas.\n\nStunning\, realistic imagery recreates the perilous underwater realm of two young\, dolphin-sized marine reptiles called Dolichorhynchops\, and their journey among the most awesome predators ever to prowl the oceans.

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.

Camera as Passport: The Ship of Photographers DESCRIPTION:Starting in 1933 when Hitler and the Nazis came to power\, a cadre of European Jews—German\, Polish\, Hungarian\, Austrian\, French—discovered that a camera could be their passport\, first out of Germany and then out of Europe. Some of these women and men had been planning one type of career—lawyer\, journalist\, painter\, musician—but then realized that they needed to find another way to earn a living. Taking photographs presented a sufficiently malleable opportunity that not only allowed them to leave Germany and then Europe but also to have a means to sustain themselves in foreign countries where they did not necessarily speak the language.\n \n They did\, however\, mobilize the visual language of photography. For a number of these figures\, forced migration became an asset during the golden age of photojournalism wherein their portable services were employed to supply picture stories on the move and around the world. Many of these Jews became influential photographers\, shaping how their contemporaries saw the world. Looking back on their work\, we can see how they have influenced our understanding of the modern world even as we can recognize their photographs as a significant component of modern Jewish visual culture.\n \n Of the dozens of photographers who fled Europe\, eight escaped on a single ship. The S. S. Winnipeg sailed from Marseille\, France on May 7\, 1941. Germany had already conquered both eastern and western Europe and was poised to invade the Soviet Union. The United States was not yet in the war. Among the 750 refugees aboard were photographers from Hungary\, Belgium\, France\, and Germany: Ilse Bing\, Josef Breitenbach\, Boris Lipnitsky\, Charles Leirens\, Yolla Niclas\, Fred Stein\, Monie Tannen\, and Ylla (Camilla Henriette Koffler). During lifeboat drills\, they discovered each other. Some of them narrowly escaped Vichy France under the auspices of the American journalist Varian Fry and the New York-based Emergency Rescue Committee that helped so many Jewish and anti-Fascist artists get out of Europe in the nick of time.\n \n This exhibit introduces the University of Michigan to this intrepid group as exemplary case studies of the wide range of European photographers who used their cameras as passports to other worlds. It focuses first on their European experiences pre-emigration before turning to their escape from Europe on the S. S. Winnipeg (with three of them taking photos on board the ship). The exhibit concludes with examples of some of their initial photographic reactions to the new world\, seeing it through European eyes.\n \nIf there is anything we can do to make this event accessible to you\, please contact us. Please be aware that advance notice is necessary as some accommodations may require more time for the university to arrange.

In this exhibit\, internationally renowned Filipino artist Cian Dayrit acts as a counter-cartographer\, reclaiming mapmaking as an emancipatory activity.\n\nDayrit’s artworks\, embroidered on textiles or painted over collages of colonial-era maps\, plot the extraction of natural resources\, land grabbing\, and dispossession and displacement in his native Philippines. At the same time\, their resistant lines summon new imaginaries out of the overlaps between places and memories.\n\nDayrit’s practice is critically and practically informed by the narratives of Filipino communities. Items exhibited alongside his artwork are the result of map-drawing workshops the artist has convened with rural\, urban\, and indigenous communities across the Philippines. Propositions to Progress invites you to engage in the collaborative endeavor to activate alternative territories from the ground up.\n\nCian Dayrit is an interdisciplinary artist exploring colonialism and ethnography\, archaeology\, history\, and mythology. Dayrit subverts the language of the state\, museum\, and military to visualize the contradictions on which these institutions are built. He studied at the University of the Philippines.

Its youth group organizers aimed to bolster Palestinian unity across the systemic barriers — colonial divides\, military checkpoints\, walls\, etc. — that fragment the lives of people living in Palestine. \n\nSouq Stories: Gaza Lives brings us to present-day Gaza\, sharing the stories of\, and images captured by\, young journalists and photographers who have continued to document the realities of life in Palestine.

Powerful new systems like Generative AI unlocks enormous potential to accelerate research\, “mass produce” human knowledge\, and enable humans to address previously unfathomable scientific questions and engineering challenges. Meanwhile\, such potential is still largely speculative and initial successes are still limited in scope. Massive adoption of AI in science and engineering will be possible only after addressing numerous issues\, and building infrastructure and capacity. \n\nIn this symposium\, we bring together leading thinkers and researchers around the country to share their vision and work\, in four themes. \n\n1) Speeding Up Research – using AI to automate and accelerate research\, such as experimental design optimization and accelerating the workflow.\n\n2) The Nature of Creativity in Research – the role of the AI Researcher and the new role of the Human Researcher.\n\n3) Trusting the AI Researcher – Upholding research rigor in AI-driven research and ensuring the validation of AI-driven discoveries\, and aligning AI-driven discoveries with human values.\n\n4) Expanding the Limit of the Human Researcher– using AI to ask previously unfathomable questions in a number of research fields.\n\nThe intended audience are researchers\, trainees and the general public to this event regardless of the specific fields of their research and the focus of their intellectual pursuit.\n\nFor more information on sessions and speakers\, please visit our event page: https://midas.umich.edu/ai-se-annual-symposium/ UID:115761-21835473@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/115761 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Academic Technology At Michigan,Ai In Science And Engineering,Applications,Artificial Intelligence,computer science,data,Data Science,Discussion,Electrical And Computer Engineering,Electrical Engineering and Computer Science,Engineering,Ethics,Graduate,Graduate and Professional Students,Information and Technology,Interdisciplinary,Postdoctoral Research Fellows,Research,Science,Scientific Computing,Technology LOCATION:Rackham Graduate School (Horace H.) - Amphitheatre (4th Floor) CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20240229T170957 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20240318T090000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20240318T170000 SUMMARY:Exhibition:Exile and the Mentor-student Relationship: A Force for Resistance and Decolonization DESCRIPTION:This small exhibit features work in reproduction by Iraqi artists Hanaa Malallah and Mohammed Karim\, as well as an original painting by Karim. Both Malallah and Karim were significantly influenced by their mentors during and after their training in Iraq\, and continue to share their work and ideas with a new generation today.\n\nIn the United States\, Iraq is typically spoken about in a passive position: colonized\, under despotic rule\, occupied. Post-occupied. Through connections between mentors and students\, and students who became mentors to new students\, Iraqi artists have been a force for anti-colonialism\, claiming their heritage and its future for themselves.\n\nView the exhibit Monday-Friday in the Fine Arts Library\, Tappan Hall\, 855 S.

It considers the process of germination as a site for the cross-pollination of ideas from diverse disciplines around the future of the built environment. \n\nAbout the artist:\nSusan Goethel Campbell creates multi-disciplinary work that considers the contemporary landscape to be an emergent system where nature\, culture\, and the engineered environment are indistinguishable from one another. Central to her practice is the collection\, documentation\, and observation of seasonal change and ephemera in both natural and artificial environments. Her work is realized in several formats\, including installation\, video\, prints\, and drawings\, as well as projects that engage communities to look at local and global environments.\n\nCampbell earned an MFA in printmaking from Cranbrook Academy of Art.

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:116532-21837340@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:20240401T092243 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20240318T090000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20240318T163000 SUMMARY:Exhibition:RC Visual Arts Faculty Show DESCRIPTION:March 4 - April 4\, 2024\n\n--\n\nThe public is invited to a closing reception for the artists on April 4th at 5:00 pm.\n--\nAbout the Artists\nMegan Gizzi (Lecturer I\, Ceramics) \n\nToby Millman (Lecturer\, Drawing and Printmaking) is a multidisciplinary artist living in Hamtramck\, working with printmaking\, photography\, collage\, narrative and book arts.

Even if all emissions ceased tomorrow\, atmospheric CO2 levels are already dangerously high and the climate would keep warming before it eventually stabilizes. We have to reduce or “capture” legacy CO2 to avert disaster. As the International Panel on Climate Change stated\, the *only* way we can meet our climate goal is to use carbon capture in our climate change fighting tool kit. \n\nMany of the products that we use every day are made with carbon. Treating legacy CO2 as a resource with economic value rather than a pollutant allows us to generate revenue while also fighting climate change. \n\nHowever\, not all uses or types of captured CO2 are equal in terms of environmental or economic benefits. This exhibit includes a video game that helps explain the pros and cons associated with different methods and applications of carbon capture. \n\nAdditionally\, it also provides examples of two types of carbon removal\, an interactive block activity\, and sample products made from captured CO2.

However\, research efforts to address the health inequities these communities face often fail to ensure transgender women of color have meaningful leadership roles throughout the entire research process. The “Love Her Collective” is a community-academic partnership between Trans Sistas of Color Project-Detroit (TSoCP) and researchers at the University of Michigan School of Public Health formed around the needs\, interests\, and priorities of transgender women of color in Detroit. Over the past 6 years\, the Love Her Collective has conducted several projects to identify and address social determinants of HIV inequities in this community. This presentation will describe community-led projects addressing violence and trauma\, legal barriers to legal gender affirmation\, and economic vulnerability. It will focus on the ethics and benefits surrounding community leadership in health equity research and include concrete recommendations for population health researchers working with populations frequently excluded and marginalized by academic research.\n\nKristi E. Gamarel (she/her) is an Associate Professor and Associate Chair of Department of Health Behavior and Health Education at the University of Michigan School of Public Health. She has a background in social and personality psychology with additional training in health psychology and public health.

However\, at present\, most\nspacecraft control laws can only autonomously accomplish very simple tasks using their onboard computers. More complex tasks are instead\naccomplished by pre-computing the spacecraft motions on the ground\, checking the results by hand\, and then uplinking these instructions to the\nspacecraft to follow. As humans venture further into the Solar System and launch an ever-increasing number of Earth-orbiting spacecraft each year\,\nthere is an interest in developing control laws that perform more complex tasks with less ground-based supervision. At the same time\, any such\ncontrol law must be computationally lightweight and provably verifiable.

While several evolutionary genetic hypotheses have been proposed\, most lack strong empirical evidence. I will discuss recent UK Biobank-based genomic studies that shed light on this long-standing “Darwinian paradox.\"\n\nGroup Dynamics Seminar Series\nThe Group Dynamics Seminar series is considered one of the longest running seminar series in the social sciences. It has been running uninterruptedly since it was founded by Kurt Lewin in the 1920’s in Berlin. A very important feature of this seminar today is its interdisciplinary nature. Recent seminars have included discussions in “Law and Psychology\,” “Racism and Discrimination\,” “Social Media\,” and “New Directions in Social Psychology.”\n\nThe Winter 2024 Series is co-sponsored by the Evolution and Human Adaptation Program (EHAP) at the University of Michigan.\n\nEvolution and Human Behavior\n\nWhat can wasps teach us about the evolution of animal minds? How does indirect reciprocity shape cooperation in human groups? Why are people vulnerable to obesity– especially in marginalized groups? This seminar series will address these questions\, and more\, from the perspective of evolutionary theory. The approach will draw on behavioral ecology\, which views adaptive behavior as responsive to ecological variation. The speakers\, from anthropology and other fields\, are known for the depth of their long-term field studies in Kenya\, Mali\, Bangladesh\, the United States\, Dominica\, Bolivia\, the Pacific Islands\, and other locales. \n\nRCGD/EHAP Seminars will be held at ISR Thompson 1430. Where permitted by speakers\, events will be recorded. The related class meets at 1 at 1450.

This is no accident. The Roman empire was an ‘empire of cities’. In the western Mediterranean\, where there were relatively few\, the Romans planted an enormous number of new ones. The East\, on the other hand\, was already densely populated with cities. Here the ancient settlements of the Levant flourished under Roman rule\, growing steadily in size and prosperity.\n\nThese cities gradually took on a new appearance too\, as they each acquired a selection of the grand appurtenances and amenities of a Roman metropolis or model city: aqueducts\, vaulted bath buildings\, stone theaters\, covered markets\, colonnaded streets\, monumental frontal temple buildings. In recent years these cities have attracted a fair amount of attention from archaeologists and historians\; but they generally remain outside our accepted narratives of the evolving urban cultures of the Roman world.\n\nThe Jerome Thomas Spencer Lecture series revisits these long-established centers of the Roman Near East\, and the various ancient peoples who inhabited them. The lectures will seek to trace\, through the archaeology and historical sources\, the transformation of these cities\, from the late first century BCE until Late Antiquity and even into the Early Islamic period\; and to describe the ways in which there emerged—here in the monumental spaces of these Levantine communities—a range of new and distinctive kinds of ‘urbanity’.\n\nUrban development in the Roman period prompted a welter of political\, social\, and religious changes — all of which resulted in a number of different ‘regimes of urban living’\, distinctive to the region. The lectures will take us through a series of extremely varied – but recognizable – urban landscapes: the Decapolis\, the Limestone Massif and the Tetrapolis\; the settlements along the Mediterranean coast\; and places deep inland such as Palmyra in the Syrian Desert and the Hauran. But by the end of the journey\, the lectures shall have situated these cities as physical manifestations of a local or regional experiment in ‘urban self-fashioning’ — as the peoples of the region\, collectively and individually\, availed themselves of the alluring opportunities of the Roman peace.\n\nRubina Raja is a Professor of Classical Archaeology and Art at Aarhus University\, Denmark\, and Centre director of the Danish National Research Foundation’s Centre of Excellence for Urban Network Evolutions at Aarhus University\, Denmark.\n\nProfessor Raja studied classical archaeology at Oxford (M.St. and D.Phil) after undergraduate studies at the University of Copenhagen and Università di Roma\, La Sapienza\, Italy\, and has worked during her studies at the Danish Ministry of Culture. After her DPhil\, she held post-docs in Hamburg\, Germany\, and Aarhus\, Denmark. She was an associate professor at Aarhus University between 2009 and 2012\, and in 2012\, she was appointed professor with special responsibilities. In 2015\, she took up the professorial chair of Classical Art and Archaeology at Aarhus University as the first female professor in the field in Denmark ever. There\, she has also since 2015 directed the Danish National Research Foundation’s Centre of Excellence for Urban Network Evolutions. Raja has published widely on Greco-Roman portraiture\, ancient religion\, and its monuments\, urban development from the Hellenistic to the Medieval periods in the Eastern Mediterranean\, cultural heritage in conflict zones\, and legacy data. She is known for her groundbreaking work on the Syrian oasis city Palmyra and her high-impact collaborative archaeological fieldwork in Jerash and Rome. She has received numerous international research awards and honors\, including the Humboldt Foundation’s Friedrich Wilhelm Bessel Prize\, Queen Margrethe IIs Rome Prize\, the Elite Research Prize\, and the Silver Medal for outstanding research in the humanities and social sciences awarded by the Royal Danish Academy of Sciences and Letters\, where she has been a member since 2015. She holds several leadership and management degrees from INSEAD\, Paris\, and Copenhagen Business School\, among other institutions. She has mentored junior and senior scholars in career development programs\, and is the author of numerous outreach features on the importance of the humanities broadly in today’s rapidly changing world – underlining in which ways Classics remain relevant in our day and age. In 2023\, she was a visiting fellow at All Souls College at her Alma Mater institution\, the University of Oxford.\n\nRaja is an experienced field archaeologist\, having headed projects in the Middle East and Italy since 2011. Her research focuses on urban and societal developments as well as networks from the Hellenistic to the medieval periods\, iconography\, and religion in Antiquity\, with a focus on the Eastern Mediterranean and Rome. She has pioneered research intersecting archaeology and natural sciences\, bringing high-definition studies of the past to the forefront.

Italy: Strategies for De-Demonizing Fascism DESCRIPTION:In recent years\, far-right parties have gained ground in most national parliaments. This is the case in Italy\, where the extreme right (Fratelli d'Italia\, the Lega\, and Forza Italia) won the general election in September 2022. Should we fear a return to fascism?\n \n Loriga will first outline two historical key features within the Italian political context: on one hand\, the constitutional consensus and the antifascist paradigm established at the end of the Second World War\; on the other\, the perdurance of fascism. She will then analyze how certain fascist terminologies and visions have been re-mobilized in the public debate. More specifically\, she will expose three strategies used to disguise fascism in Italy (by claiming the fascist legacy but denying that it is fascism): first\, the representation of fascism as an operetta dictatorship\; second\, anti-antifascism\; and third\, the game of hide-and-seek with fascism.\n \n Sabina Loriga is professor of history at the École des Hautes Études en Sciences Sociales in Paris. She is editor of the journal *Passés Futurs* and chair of the festival of social sciences Allez Savoir\, “Voyage en utopies.” Her research focuses on the relationships between history and biography\, the construction of historical time\, and public uses of the past. Her publications include: *Une histoire inquiète. Les historiens et le tournant linguistique* (avec J. Revel)\, Éditions Seuil-Gallimard\, 2022\; *Le petit x.

In the 1930s Zariski studied the question of whether the moduli space of plane curves of fixed degree with a certain set of prescribed singularities is connected. He famously showed that plane sextic curves with six cusps and no other singularities is disconnected: the two components corresponding to whether the cusps or not the cusps are in general position or lie on a conic. To prove this\, Zariski developed and used tools around fundamental groups and branched coverings\, showing that purely topological data can be used to answer geometric questions: the deformability of six cuspidal sextics one to the other. Recently\, Milnor asked an analogous question in the realm of rational maps: Is the moduli space of quadratic rational maps of a fixed degree and a prescribed orbit portrait for one of the critical points connected? This problem is still wide open. In this talk we will describe some partial results with a particular focus on the use of topological techniques a la Zariski in this context.

Yet\, when incorporated into protein scaffolds\, this limited set of metal ions carry out innumerable cellular functions and execute essential biochemical transformations such as photochemical H2O oxidation\, O2 or CO2 reduction\, and N2 fixation\, highlighting the outsized importance of metalloproteins in biology. Elucidating the intricate interplay between metal ions and protein structures has been the focus of extensive structural and mechanistic scrutiny over the last several decades. As a result\, we have gained a reasonably detailed understanding of how metal ions shape protein structures and how protein structures in turn influence metal reactivity. By contrast\, translating this knowledge into an ability to construct functional metalloproteins from scratch remains a great challenge.\n\nMotivated by a desire to (a) build new bioinorganic functions beyond what nature has invented and (b) retrace the routes for the emergence of bioinorganic complexity during evolution\, we have developed a design approach in which folded proteins are used as synthons for building supramolecular complexes through metal-mediated self-assembly. The interfaces in the resulting protein superstructures are subsequently tailored with covalent\, non-covalent or additional metal-coordination interactions for stabilization and incorporation of new functionalities. This strategy has not only enabled the construction of functional metalloproteins and protein-based materials with unusual properties\, but also led to the discovery of fundamental design principles that govern the metal-protein interplay. This presentation will focus on a few examples from our laboratory.

In this theory\, classical probability spaces are replaced by pairs (𝒜\,𝜏)\, where 𝒜 is an (operator) algebra and 𝜏 : 𝒜 → ℂ is a certain kind of linear functional. In such a pair\, 𝒜 and 𝜏 are conceptualized as the space of ``noncommutative random variables'' and the ``expectation'' functional on 𝒜\, respectively. The analogy with classical probability goes much further\; indeed\, there are notions of distribution\, independence\, L^p-spaces\, conditional expectation\, and more. My talk will focus on my recent joint work with David Jekel and Todd Kemp on developing a noncommutative theory of stochastic calculus. I shall frame the discussion around some joint work in progress with Guillaume Cébron and Nicolas Gilliers: applications of the theory to the characterization of large-N limits of solutions to N×N matrix stochastic differential equations.

Arts of closure: settler cosmotechnics and dam removal on the Upper Mississippi River DESCRIPTION:How do we take apart things deemed harmful? In 2018 the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers began a disposition study for three locks and dams in the only gorge in the Mississippi River\, located in Minneapolis-St. Paul. The study has gathered diverse actors and communities\, including vocal advocates for their partial or complete removal\, echoing calls elsewhere for the dismantling of ruinous infrastructures. While dam removal advocates imagine a river set free\, this paper turns to a precursor to the dams\, first proposed in 1852\, ten years before the Dakota uprising\, to develop the idea of a “settler cosmotechnics” that imagined the Mississippi as a technical and infrastructural object\, effacing Dakota cosmologies and territorialities as it displaced the river into the territorial and economic logics of the expanding settler state. \n\nBruce Braun is Professor of Geography in the Department of Geography\, Environment and Society (GES) at the University of Minnesota. He is a specialist in political ecology\, infrastructural politics\, and settler environmentalisms. He is currently working on two projects: “Learning from Ada’itsx\,” with Cliff Atleo and Michael Simpson\, which explores the shifting territorialities\, ecologies\, and technopolitics of forestry on Indigenous lands in British Columbia\, Canada\, and “Dismantlings: the Art and Politics of Taking Things Apart\,” which delves into the concrete practices and contentious politics of dismantling infrastructures deemed harmful or obsolete. He is the author of numerous books and articles\, most recently Settling the Boom: Sites and Subjects of Bakken Oil (Minnesota\, 2023).

We can write a generating function for Dyck paths\, using q to keep track of the area statistic\, and t to keep track of the bounce statistic. Amazingly\, while this function is symmetric in q and t\, a bijection on Dyck paths that swaps area and bounce continues to elude even the most tenacious combinatistas. Recent work of Guoce Xin and Yingrui Zhang suggests promising results from studying a generalization of Dyck paths. Drawing inspiration from this work\, we will discuss how to view Dyck paths as integer points of cones\, hoping that the geometric perspective will shed new light on this problem. This is joint work with Matthias Beck\, Mitsuki Hanada\, Max Hlavacek\, John Lentfer\, and Andrés Vindas Meléndez.

There is a difficulty even in the formulation of the problem\, because the 'natural' definition of cycles associated with degenerate coefficients yields cycles in the wrong degree\, an issue that gets rather more severe when one tries to work over the integral model. I'll explain how the theory of virtual fundamental classes for certain derived complete intersection maps gives a systematic fix for this issue\, and how recent developments in integral p-adic Hodge theory (joint w. Mathew and Gardner) help to construct such maps.

During the pandemic\, Nerissa and Katryna Nields took a daily walk with their beloved dogs\, Greta and Hudson. The destination was a nearby lake\, where Katryna would take a daily photo. Inspired by the ever-shifting seasons\, they came to realize that each of Nerissa’s new songs could be intimately connected to a particular time of year\, forming a musical cycle. Listeners of any age who haven't yet encountered the Nields will be amazed by the vocal chemistry of these two sisters who have been singing together almost from the cradle\, by the range of their songwriting ideas\, and by their uncategorizable stylistic turns.\n\nPlease visit https://mutotix.umich.edu/4534/4535 for more detail.

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.

Camera as Passport: The Ship of Photographers DESCRIPTION:Starting in 1933 when Hitler and the Nazis came to power\, a cadre of European Jews—German\, Polish\, Hungarian\, Austrian\, French—discovered that a camera could be their passport\, first out of Germany and then out of Europe. Some of these women and men had been planning one type of career—lawyer\, journalist\, painter\, musician—but then realized that they needed to find another way to earn a living. Taking photographs presented a sufficiently malleable opportunity that not only allowed them to leave Germany and then Europe but also to have a means to sustain themselves in foreign countries where they did not necessarily speak the language.\n \n They did\, however\, mobilize the visual language of photography. For a number of these figures\, forced migration became an asset during the golden age of photojournalism wherein their portable services were employed to supply picture stories on the move and around the world. Many of these Jews became influential photographers\, shaping how their contemporaries saw the world. Looking back on their work\, we can see how they have influenced our understanding of the modern world even as we can recognize their photographs as a significant component of modern Jewish visual culture.\n \n Of the dozens of photographers who fled Europe\, eight escaped on a single ship. The S. S. Winnipeg sailed from Marseille\, France on May 7\, 1941. Germany had already conquered both eastern and western Europe and was poised to invade the Soviet Union. The United States was not yet in the war. Among the 750 refugees aboard were photographers from Hungary\, Belgium\, France\, and Germany: Ilse Bing\, Josef Breitenbach\, Boris Lipnitsky\, Charles Leirens\, Yolla Niclas\, Fred Stein\, Monie Tannen\, and Ylla (Camilla Henriette Koffler). During lifeboat drills\, they discovered each other. Some of them narrowly escaped Vichy France under the auspices of the American journalist Varian Fry and the New York-based Emergency Rescue Committee that helped so many Jewish and anti-Fascist artists get out of Europe in the nick of time.\n \n This exhibit introduces the University of Michigan to this intrepid group as exemplary case studies of the wide range of European photographers who used their cameras as passports to other worlds. It focuses first on their European experiences pre-emigration before turning to their escape from Europe on the S. S. Winnipeg (with three of them taking photos on board the ship). The exhibit concludes with examples of some of their initial photographic reactions to the new world\, seeing it through European eyes.\n \nIf there is anything we can do to make this event accessible to you\, please contact us. Please be aware that advance notice is necessary as some accommodations may require more time for the university to arrange.

In this exhibit\, internationally renowned Filipino artist Cian Dayrit acts as a counter-cartographer\, reclaiming mapmaking as an emancipatory activity.\n\nDayrit’s artworks\, embroidered on textiles or painted over collages of colonial-era maps\, plot the extraction of natural resources\, land grabbing\, and dispossession and displacement in his native Philippines. At the same time\, their resistant lines summon new imaginaries out of the overlaps between places and memories.\n\nDayrit’s practice is critically and practically informed by the narratives of Filipino communities. Items exhibited alongside his artwork are the result of map-drawing workshops the artist has convened with rural\, urban\, and indigenous communities across the Philippines. Propositions to Progress invites you to engage in the collaborative endeavor to activate alternative territories from the ground up.\n\nCian Dayrit is an interdisciplinary artist exploring colonialism and ethnography\, archaeology\, history\, and mythology. Dayrit subverts the language of the state\, museum\, and military to visualize the contradictions on which these institutions are built. He studied at the University of the Philippines.

Its youth group organizers aimed to bolster Palestinian unity across the systemic barriers — colonial divides\, military checkpoints\, walls\, etc. — that fragment the lives of people living in Palestine. \n\nSouq Stories: Gaza Lives brings us to present-day Gaza\, sharing the stories of\, and images captured by\, young journalists and photographers who have continued to document the realities of life in Palestine.

It considers the process of germination as a site for the cross-pollination of ideas from diverse disciplines around the future of the built environment. \n\nAbout the artist:\nSusan Goethel Campbell creates multi-disciplinary work that considers the contemporary landscape to be an emergent system where nature\, culture\, and the engineered environment are indistinguishable from one another. Central to her practice is the collection\, documentation\, and observation of seasonal change and ephemera in both natural and artificial environments. Her work is realized in several formats\, including installation\, video\, prints\, and drawings\, as well as projects that engage communities to look at local and global environments.\n\nCampbell earned an MFA in printmaking from Cranbrook Academy of Art. Her work has been exhibited internationally in Belgium\, Germany\, Switzerland\, and Slovenia and nationally throughout the US\, including the National Museum of Women in the Arts\, Queens Art Museum\, Crystal Bridges Museum\, Museum of Contemporary Art Detroit\, Grand Rapids Art Museum\, the Detroit Institute of Arts\, The Drawing Center\, and The International Print Center New York. In 2009 she was one of 18 artists selected for the inaugural Kresge Artist Fellowship.\n\nCampbell has been awarded residencies at the Banff Centre for the Arts\, the Flemish Center for Graphic Arts\, the Jentel Foundation\, Beisinghoff Print Residency\, and the Print Research Institute of North Texas. She taught studio art for 15 years at the College for Creative Studies in Detroit and has been a visiting artist in numerous institutions in the United States and abroad. Her work is in the collection of the National Museum of Women in the Arts\, New York Public Library\, Detroit Institute of Arts\, Toledo Museum of Art\, and the University of Michigan Special Collections Library.\n\nThis project is made possible by a grant from the Mellon Foundation as part of the Institute for the Humanities' multi-year High Stakes Art initiative.

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.

Powerful new systems like Generative AI unlocks enormous potential to accelerate research\, “mass produce” human knowledge\, and enable humans to address previously unfathomable scientific questions and engineering challenges. Meanwhile\, such potential is still largely speculative and initial successes are still limited in scope. Massive adoption of AI in science and engineering will be possible only after addressing numerous issues\, and building infrastructure and capacity. \n\nIn this symposium\, we bring together leading thinkers and researchers around the country to share their vision and work\, in four themes. \n\n1) Speeding Up Research – using AI to automate and accelerate research\, such as experimental design optimization and accelerating the workflow.\n\n2) The Nature of Creativity in Research – the role of the AI Researcher and the new role of the Human Researcher.\n\n3) Trusting the AI Researcher – Upholding research rigor in AI-driven research and ensuring the validation of AI-driven discoveries\, and aligning AI-driven discoveries with human values.\n\n4) Expanding the Limit of the Human Researcher– using AI to ask previously unfathomable questions in a number of research fields.\n\nThe intended audience are researchers\, trainees and the general public to this event regardless of the specific fields of their research and the focus of their intellectual pursuit.\n\nFor more information on sessions and speakers\, please visit our event page: https://midas.umich.edu/ai-se-annual-symposium/ UID:115761-21835474@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/115761 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Academic Technology At Michigan,Ai In Science And Engineering,Applications,Artificial Intelligence,computer science,data,Data Science,Discussion,Electrical And Computer Engineering,Electrical Engineering and Computer Science,Engineering,Ethics,Graduate,Graduate and Professional Students,Information and Technology,Interdisciplinary,Postdoctoral Research Fellows,Research,Science,Scientific Computing,Technology LOCATION:Rackham Graduate School (Horace H.) - Amphitheatre (4th Floor) CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20240221T155241 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20240319T100000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20240319T160000 SUMMARY:Exhibition:Products from Pollution: Carbon Capture and Conversion DESCRIPTION:Phasing out fossil fuels is a primary means to fight climate change\, but it alone is not enough. Even if all emissions ceased tomorrow\, atmospheric CO2 levels are already dangerously high and the climate would keep warming before it eventually stabilizes. We have to reduce or “capture” legacy CO2 to avert disaster. As the International Panel on Climate Change stated\, the *only* way we can meet our climate goal is to use carbon capture in our climate change fighting tool kit. \n\nMany of the products that we use every day are made with carbon. Treating legacy CO2 as a resource with economic value rather than a pollutant allows us to generate revenue while also fighting climate change. \n\nHowever\, not all uses or types of captured CO2 are equal in terms of environmental or economic benefits. This exhibit includes a video game that helps explain the pros and cons associated with different methods and applications of carbon capture. \n\nAdditionally\, it also provides examples of two types of carbon removal\, an interactive block activity\, and sample products made from captured CO2.

Amongst many other things\, he identified the minimum amount of redundancy that needs to be added to a communication to enable reliable decoding on reception. Since then\, the paradigm has been to co-design cleverly restricted classes of mathematically precise grammars called codes with code-specific correction algorithms called decoders.\n\nIn this talk\, we introduce Guessing Random Additive Noise Decoding (GRAND)\, class of error correction decoders based on a readily understood paradigm that makes them suitable for use with any moderate redundancy code of any length. Even though the first mathematical analysis was only published in 2018\, GRAND has already resulted in taped-out chips that demonstrate its class-leading efficiency in silicon. In this talk\, we explain the theoretical insight behind GRAND as well as recent developments that demonstrate its ability to decode long low-rate codes more accurately and efficiently than those in widely used standards.\n\nThe work is based on a collaboration with Muriel Medard (MIT)\, with the circuits elements performed in collaboration with Rabia Yazicigil (BU)\, as well as their groups.\n\nBio\n\nKen R.

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.

Addressing the Elephant in the Room\nAntoinette Weibel\nTuesday\, March 19\, 2024\n11:00 am - 12:00 p.m. ET\nFree\, registration required to obtain login information\n\nEvent link:\nhttps://positiveorgs.bus.umich.edu/events/positive-for-whom-addressing-the-elephant-in-the-room/ \n\nPositive Links:\nThe Positive Links Speaker Series\, presented by Michigan Ross’ Center for Positive Organizations\, offers inspiring and practical science-based strategies to build and bolster thriving organizations. Attendees learn from leading positive organizational scholars and connect with our community of academics\, students\, staff\, and leaders.\n\nAbout the talk:\nMost scholars in the realm of positive organizations share a common passion: we all aspire to alleviate some of the suffering in the world. Consequently\, we are actively engaged in studying positive phenomena such as trust\, compassion\, high-quality connections\, flourishing\, and more. Despite this\, many of us shy away from addressing a crucial underlying question: positive for whom and on what grounds? There is also contemplation on whether “positive” is indeed the most fitting label\, as opposed to “good” or “for the common good.” Often\, we adhere to the value-free label of social science\, neither acknowledging the underlying value-driven nature of our work nor recognizing that by frequently choosing performance as the dependent variable\, we implicitly align with instrumentalism and utilitarian thinking. \n\nIn the upcoming discussion\, Antoinette will share her story and explain why she chose to directly confront the value question in her new project\, “good organizations.” By adopting a distinctly virtue ethics approach\, she emphasizes the need to qualify the term “positive\,” to differentiate between flourishing and thriving\, and to recognize that trust can be ethical only in conjunction with practical wisdom. Antoinette will elaborate on how good organizations view prosperity as a means to the end of collective development and good work\, aiming to enable the good life of all stakeholders touched by the organization. Lastly\, she will elucidate why she believes that we\, as engaged scholars and managers alike\, cannot exempt ourselves from contemplating values and ethics. According to Antoinette\, coming to explicit terms with our normative foundation is the only genuine way to alleviate the suffering within organizations.\n\nStudent Watch Party: Watch this streamed session together with other students for an in-person community experience followed by a structured discussion about how to put insights from Positive Links into practice. Registration for the Student Watch Party is included as an option when registering for this session of Positive Links.\n\nAbout Weibel:\nProfessor Dr. Antoinette Weibel is chaired professor for human resource management at the University of St.Gallen and Director at the Institute for Work and Employment Research at the University of St.Gallen.

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:84303-21621237@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:20240319T112034 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20240319T120000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20240319T133000 SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Anti-Racist Community Engagement Workshop DESCRIPTION:Anti-Racist Community Engagement is an advanced interactive workshop for participants who are already familiar with both community engagement and anti-racism.

However\, research on canine assemblies and structural variations have lagged behind human\, mouse\, or rat research due to a lack of genomic resources\, and an important part of these are duplication. Large genomic duplications have gone relatively uninvestigated in modern canine research\, largely due to the difficulties in assembling and assessing them properly as a result of their size and conflicting nature. In this investigation\, with the recent explosion and availability of canine genomic researchers\, we searched for structural variations\, copy number variations\, and retrocopies\, which are all subcategories of genomic duplications. By comparing unique retrocopies across the nine canines we have available\, and calculating the number of generations since genome divergence\, we were able to determine a rate of novel retrocopy insertion at an average of 1/693 births. Together\, our investigation illustrates both the difficulties of finding duplications and retrocopies\, and highlights the variable representation of duplications across canines.

Using Netflix as a case study\, I focus on the recent public debate surrounding its failed attempt to add a playback speed feature to its streaming platform. World-renowned filmmakers pushed Netflix to shelve this idea when it was first introduced in 2018\, claiming their films were not intended to be watched twice as fast. Yet\, citing “requests from deaf and blind subscribers\,” Netflix decided to add this feature to its interface in August 2020\, when millions were sheltering-in-place due to the pandemic. This presentation asks what led to this decision\, and what can the marketing discourse surrounding it teach us about how corporations monetize “accessibility.” Theorizing the difference between \"time-shifting\" and \"time-hacking\"\, I argue that speed-watching is a mode of survival enabling different users to advance a wide range of goals: media literacy\, the thrill of speed\, and avoiding a mortifying fear of boredom.\n\nNeta Alexander is an Assistant Professor of Film and Media at Colgate University\, NY and a former Assistant Editor of the Journal of Cinema and Media Studies (JCMS).

It is the large-population limit of a heterogeneously interacting diffusive particle system\, where the interaction is of mean-field type with weights characterized by an underlying graphon function. Through observation of continuous-time trajectories within the particle system\, we construct plug-in estimators of the particle density\, the drift coefficient\, and thus the graphon interaction weights of the mean-field system. Our estimators for the density and drift are direct results of kernel interpolation on the empirical data\, and a deconvolution method leads to an estimator of the underlying graphon function. We show that\, as the number of particles increases\, the graphon estimator converges to the true graphon function pointwisely\, and as a consequence\, in the cut metric.

An exploration of the museum’s origins and early history\, this book focuses on the period when it evolved from displaying Jewish ritual objects\, to Jewish art\, to avant-garde art devoid of Jewish content\, created by non-Jews. Established within a rabbinic seminary\, the museum’s story reflects changes in Jewish society over the twentieth century as it struggled to balance competing values of religion and secularism\, particularism and universalism\, and ethnic pride and assimilation. \n\nJeffrey Abt is a Professor Emeritus at Wayne State University. He earned BFA and MFA degrees in painting at Drake University\, working primarily with Jules Kirschenbaum\; and he subsequently studied at the Jerusalem campus of the Hebrew Union College-Jewish Institute of Religion. Prior to Wayne State\, he worked at the Wichita Art Museum\; the Special Collections Research Center\, University of Chicago\; and Chicago’s Smart Museum of Art. An artist and writer\, he has exhibited widely in the United States and abroad\; and his artwork is in several museum and corporate collections. His books include American Egyptologist: The Life of James Henry Breasted and the Creation of His Oriental Institute (University of Chicago Press)\, Valuing Detroit's Art Museum: A History of Fiscal Abandonment and Rescue (Palgrave Macmillan)\, and Too Jewish or Not Jewish Enough: Ritual Objects and Avant-Garde Art at the Jewish Museum of New York (Berghahn).

Racial Divides in the Trump Insurrection and Democracy DESCRIPTION:Did Trump and his MAGAites inflict damage on American political institutions via election denialism and the assault on the U.S. Capitol? While most pundits and many scholars find this a question easy to answer in the affirmative\, to date\, little rigorous evidence has been adduced on Trump’s institutional consequences. Based on surveys of representative samples of the American people in July 2020\, December 2020\, March 2021\, and June 2021\, my analysis examines in great detail whether American political institutions lost legitimacy over the period from before the presidential election to well after it and whether any such loss is associated with acceptance of the “Big Lie” about the election and its aftermath. With one exception\, my highly contrarian conclusion is simple: try as they might (and did)\, Trump and his Republicans did not\, in fact\, succeed in undermining American national political institutions. The empirical evidence indicates that institutions seem to be more resilient than many have imagined\, just as the Legitimacy Theory would predict. The exception\, however\, is of utmost importance for American politics: Among African Americans\, support for democratic institutions and values waned considerably\, largely as a consequence of factors such as the insurrection and experience\, vicarious and personal\, with unfair treatment by legal authorities.\n \nJames L.

It helped clarify the V-A character of the weak interaction [1] and continues to be pivotal in probing for physics beyond the Standard Model by examining potential deviations [2]. During the beta decay of helium-6\, the emitted beta particle corresponds to an expanding spherical shell of charge or Coulomb pulse that can eject one or both electrons. This shake-off must be accounted for in balancing energy and momentum to determine the critical electron antineutrino angular correlations. The principal challenge lies in separating the overlapping single and double ionization channels. Calculations have consistently overestimated double ionization compared with observations [3]. Our new theoretical method addresses this by partitioning the overlapping states into distinct charge states using projection operators [4]. This results in closer alignment with experiment\; however\, discrepancies persist. I will outline our continuing efforts to refine this approach\, highlighting the use of delta function matrix elements to assess the fidelity of the daughter ion's charge state.\n\nThe one-electron pseudostates used to form the aforementioned projection operators are interesting in their own right. These pseudospectra are useful in several atomic physics problems requiring a complete set of states\, especially those with important contributions from very-high-energy intermediate states. An example of this is the Bethe logarithm component of the Lamb shift\, a leading order QED correction [5]. Our current activities on this problem will also be discussed.\n\nFurthermore\, I will touch on recent work concerning the theory of radiative transitions\, where the usual gauge equivalence of the length and velocity forms applies only in the limit of infinite nuclear mass. We have extended this to the case of finite nuclear mass [6]\, developing a formalism which imposes strict constraints on calculations of atomic properties involving n-photon transitions\, such as absorption and spontaneous decay.\n\n[1] T.

Much of its structure is now understood\, but a critical question remains unresolved: is the Mandelbrot set locally connected? The first major breakthrough towards this conjecture was achieved by Yoccoz in the nineties\, who proved that the Mandelbrot set is locally connected at all parameters which are not infinitely quadratic-like renormalizable. A key ingredient in Yoccoz’s work is the PLY-inequality\, which bounds the diameter of certain subsets\, called limbs\, of the Mandelbrot set. These limbs are naturally labeled by the rational numbers\, and the PLY-inequality asserts that the p/q-limb of the Mandelbrot set has size O(1/q). Milnor conjectured that O(1/q2) is the correct scale. For any N ≥ 1\, the main result of this thesis is to verify Milnor’s conjecture for all p/q-limbs where a finite continued fraction of p/q has uniformly bounded length. Our strategy relies on careful analysis of the bifurcation of parabolic fixed points\; we also further develop some of the classical theory in this area. We introduce parabolic and near-parabolic renormalization operators for maps which have parabolic fixed points of arbitrary multiplier and there perturbations\, constructing invariant classes for these operators. We provide an alternative definition to the parabolic towers introduced by Epstein and construct a dynamically natural topology on the space of all parabolic towers. We also study the dynamics of Lavaurs maps\, constructing analogues of polynomial external rays for these functions showing that these rays arise as the Hausdorff limits of polynomial external rays.

We will begin with an overview of the Wave Kinetic Equation and then talk about how one could prove that it holds. One of the major aspects of proofs used to establish Kinetic Theory is that the problem can be reduced to a counting problem of certain types of mathematical trees/molecules.

LOT-EK’s inspirational art and architectural work reconsiders our modern economy through the icon of globalization\, the shipping container.\n\nIf we pay enough attention to the ordinary\, we see the extraordinary. The shipping container is an accidental icon of our modern age: the eight-foot-by-forty-foot corrugated steel box that brings the world to our doorstep. It brings all our hearts’ desires’\, available for purchase. And it brings us complicity in the global supply chains\, and all the economic\, ecological\, technological\, and political systems that forge those chains\, as those great container ships link maker and user\, buyer and seller\, China and America together across the vast distances of the lawless sea. The design studio LOT-EK is a visionary practice at the intersection of art and architecture\, that specializes in upcycling\, which is the art and science of repurposing\, remaking\, rethinking\, reimagining. Of using old things in new ways. The shipping container is the thing that has captured their imagination for over a quarter-century: they have remade containers into homes\, schools\, galleries\, libraries\, and more. With hundreds of millions of obsolete and unused containers around the world\, this is a new and necessary architecture of the future\, that repairs and regenerates the unnatural environment that we have inherited from the past.\n\nWE START WITH THE THINGS WE FIND is a feature-length documentary of this vision\, and of the soulful lifelong partnership of the people\, designers Ada Tolla and Giuseppe Lignano\, behind it. WE START WITH THE THINGS WE FIND shows us a way to be radically optimistic\, creative\, and construc-tive during times that can feel the opposite of all that. Director Thomas Piper’s acclaimed documentary feature Five Seasons: The Gardens of Piet Oudolf showed how wild and unfavored plants could encourage audiences to live more responsibly with nature\, and now he looks at living more smartly and sweetly with the effects of industry\, infrastructure\, and technology. Taking us from spark-filled workshops to a container ship sea voyage over a shimmering sea\; and explaining all the prosaic and poetic design thinking behind how LOT-EK brings the container to life\, the film shows how all we have can become all we need\, how resourceful subsistence can feel like beautiful abundance\, and how to keep going when we now know there is no such thing as a fresh start. The film is a humanist essay not only about a new kind of design thinking\, but about a new design for life.

Each semester\, Writer to Writer pairs one esteemed University professor with a Sweetland faculty member for a conversation about writing.\n\nThese conversations offer students a rare glimpse into the writing that professors do outside the classroom. You can hear instructors from various disciplines describe how they handle the same challenges student writers face\, from finding a thesis to managing deadlines. Professors will also discuss what they want from student writers in their courses\, and will take questions put forth by students and by other members of the University community. If there's anything you've ever wanted to ask a professor about writing\, Writer to Writer gives you the chance.\n\nThis month Writer to Writer presents a conversation with Petra Kuppers via Zoom.\n\nZoom link: https://umich.zoom.us/meeting/register/tJcsduitpzoiH9fAB_BfTFnX1emQ0SbZKthg\n\nPetra Kuppers (she/her) is a community performance artist and a disability culture activist. She uses social somatics\, performance\, and speculative writing to engage audiences toward more socially just and enjoyable futures. Petra is the Anita Gonzalez Collegiate Professor of Performance Studies and Disability Culture at the University of Michigan.\n\nHer artistry is grounded in the twin experiences of pain and joy. She has lived with chronic pain all her life\, but her love of movement expresses itself in multiple ways: pushing against established definitions of what dance can be\, and realigning connections between movement and writing. Her experimentation in creative somatics have allowed her to create community projects of embodied dreaming.\n\nHer third performance poetry collection\, Gut Botany (Wayne State University Press\, 2020)\, won the 2022 Creative Book Award by the Association for the Study of Literature and the Environment. Her fourth collection\, Diver Beneath the Street – true crime meets ecopoetry at the level of the soil – appears with Wayne State University Press in February 2024. Kuppers also writes academic books. Her latest\, Eco Soma: Joy and Pain in Speculative Performance Encounters (University of Minnesota Press\, 2022\, open access)\, has received honorable mentions by the National Dance Educators' Organization’s Ruth Murray Book Award\, the British Theatre and Performance Research Association’s’ David Bradby Monograph Award\, and was shortlisted for the de la Torre Bueno Prize by the Dance Studies Association.\n\nPetra was a 2022/2023 Dance/USA Fellow and is a 2023/24 Guggenheim Fellow.\n\nShe is Artistic Director of The Olimpias\, an international disability culture collective\, and co-creates Turtle Disco\, a somatic writing studio\, with her wife\, poet and dancer Stephanie Heit.

Naked Truth is steeped in the folk blues traditions of Muddy Waters\, Skip James\, Son House\, Robert Johnson and even Leo Kottke. Stripped of the electric fervor that defined his previous works\, Ellis’ acoustic music carries a rawness that speaks directly from his soul. The songs unveil another side of Tinsley Ellis\, but one that is totally recognizable to his fans. His gruff\, full-throated vocals intertwine seamlessly with the bare\, acoustic arrangements\, creating an album that is both timeless and immediate. No Depression says\, “Ellis shines. When the tempo slows\, the intensity doesn’t waver.” Blues Music Magazine states\, “Tinsley Ellis is a powerful and commanding presence. His music is impossible not to enjoy.”\n\nPlease visit https://mutotix.umich.edu/4564/4565 for more detail.

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.

Camera as Passport: The Ship of Photographers DESCRIPTION:Starting in 1933 when Hitler and the Nazis came to power\, a cadre of European Jews—German\, Polish\, Hungarian\, Austrian\, French—discovered that a camera could be their passport\, first out of Germany and then out of Europe. Some of these women and men had been planning one type of career—lawyer\, journalist\, painter\, musician—but then realized that they needed to find another way to earn a living. Taking photographs presented a sufficiently malleable opportunity that not only allowed them to leave Germany and then Europe but also to have a means to sustain themselves in foreign countries where they did not necessarily speak the language.\n \n They did\, however\, mobilize the visual language of photography. For a number of these figures\, forced migration became an asset during the golden age of photojournalism wherein their portable services were employed to supply picture stories on the move and around the world. Many of these Jews became influential photographers\, shaping how their contemporaries saw the world. Looking back on their work\, we can see how they have influenced our understanding of the modern world even as we can recognize their photographs as a significant component of modern Jewish visual culture.\n \n Of the dozens of photographers who fled Europe\, eight escaped on a single ship. The S. S. Winnipeg sailed from Marseille\, France on May 7\, 1941. Germany had already conquered both eastern and western Europe and was poised to invade the Soviet Union. The United States was not yet in the war. Among the 750 refugees aboard were photographers from Hungary\, Belgium\, France\, and Germany: Ilse Bing\, Josef Breitenbach\, Boris Lipnitsky\, Charles Leirens\, Yolla Niclas\, Fred Stein\, Monie Tannen\, and Ylla (Camilla Henriette Koffler). During lifeboat drills\, they discovered each other. Some of them narrowly escaped Vichy France under the auspices of the American journalist Varian Fry and the New York-based Emergency Rescue Committee that helped so many Jewish and anti-Fascist artists get out of Europe in the nick of time.\n \n This exhibit introduces the University of Michigan to this intrepid group as exemplary case studies of the wide range of European photographers who used their cameras as passports to other worlds. It focuses first on their European experiences pre-emigration before turning to their escape from Europe on the S. S. Winnipeg (with three of them taking photos on board the ship). The exhibit concludes with examples of some of their initial photographic reactions to the new world\, seeing it through European eyes.\n \nIf there is anything we can do to make this event accessible to you\, please contact us. Please be aware that advance notice is necessary as some accommodations may require more time for the university to arrange.

In this exhibit\, internationally renowned Filipino artist Cian Dayrit acts as a counter-cartographer\, reclaiming mapmaking as an emancipatory activity.\n\nDayrit’s artworks\, embroidered on textiles or painted over collages of colonial-era maps\, plot the extraction of natural resources\, land grabbing\, and dispossession and displacement in his native Philippines. At the same time\, their resistant lines summon new imaginaries out of the overlaps between places and memories.\n\nDayrit’s practice is critically and practically informed by the narratives of Filipino communities. Items exhibited alongside his artwork are the result of map-drawing workshops the artist has convened with rural\, urban\, and indigenous communities across the Philippines. Propositions to Progress invites you to engage in the collaborative endeavor to activate alternative territories from the ground up.\n\nCian Dayrit is an interdisciplinary artist exploring colonialism and ethnography\, archaeology\, history\, and mythology. Dayrit subverts the language of the state\, museum\, and military to visualize the contradictions on which these institutions are built. He studied at the University of the Philippines.

Its youth group organizers aimed to bolster Palestinian unity across the systemic barriers — colonial divides\, military checkpoints\, walls\, etc. — that fragment the lives of people living in Palestine. \n\nSouq Stories: Gaza Lives brings us to present-day Gaza\, sharing the stories of\, and images captured by\, young journalists and photographers who have continued to document the realities of life in Palestine. It also honors one among them\, Fouad Abu Khammash\, who was killed in January 2024 in an Israeli bomb attack on Gaza.\n\n< The exhibit includes images of people suffering the aftermath of the ongoing violence. >\n\nThis exhibit was curated by Souq Stories team members Shareef Sarhan and Waed Abbas in partnership with U-M students Amir Marshi\, Zainab Hakim\, Mariam Odeh\, and Vivian M.

Both Malallah and Karim were significantly influenced by their mentors during and after their training in Iraq\, and continue to share their work and ideas with a new generation today.\n\nIn the United States\, Iraq is typically spoken about in a passive position: colonized\, under despotic rule\, occupied. Post-occupied. Through connections between mentors and students\, and students who became mentors to new students\, Iraqi artists have been a force for anti-colonialism\, claiming their heritage and its future for themselves.\n\nView the exhibit Monday-Friday in the Fine Arts Library\, Tappan Hall\, 855 S.

It considers the process of germination as a site for the cross-pollination of ideas from diverse disciplines around the future of the built environment. \n\nAbout the artist:\nSusan Goethel Campbell creates multi-disciplinary work that considers the contemporary landscape to be an emergent system where nature\, culture\, and the engineered environment are indistinguishable from one another. Central to her practice is the collection\, documentation\, and observation of seasonal change and ephemera in both natural and artificial environments. Her work is realized in several formats\, including installation\, video\, prints\, and drawings\, as well as projects that engage communities to look at local and global environments.\n\nCampbell earned an MFA in printmaking from Cranbrook Academy of Art. Her work has been exhibited internationally in Belgium\, Germany\, Switzerland\, and Slovenia and nationally throughout the US\, including the National Museum of Women in the Arts\, Queens Art Museum\, Crystal Bridges Museum\, Museum of Contemporary Art Detroit\, Grand Rapids Art Museum\, the Detroit Institute of Arts\, The Drawing Center\, and The International Print Center New York. In 2009 she was one of 18 artists selected for the inaugural Kresge Artist Fellowship.\n\nCampbell has been awarded residencies at the Banff Centre for the Arts\, the Flemish Center for Graphic Arts\, the Jentel Foundation\, Beisinghoff Print Residency\, and the Print Research Institute of North Texas. She taught studio art for 15 years at the College for Creative Studies in Detroit and has been a visiting artist in numerous institutions in the United States and abroad. Her work is in the collection of the National Museum of Women in the Arts\, New York Public Library\, Detroit Institute of Arts\, Toledo Museum of Art\, and the University of Michigan Special Collections Library.\n\nThis project is made possible by a grant from the Mellon Foundation as part of the Institute for the Humanities' multi-year High Stakes Art initiative.

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).

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:116532-21837342@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:20240320T090000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20240320T170000 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:116536-21837501@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:20240320T120027 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20240320T090000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20240320T163000 SUMMARY:Exhibition:Thrift Shop - One Thousand Schools DESCRIPTION:Are you looking for a way to avoid fast fashion?

Even if all emissions ceased tomorrow\, atmospheric CO2 levels are already dangerously high and the climate would keep warming before it eventually stabilizes. We have to reduce or “capture” legacy CO2 to avert disaster. As the International Panel on Climate Change stated\, the *only* way we can meet our climate goal is to use carbon capture in our climate change fighting tool kit. \n\nMany of the products that we use every day are made with carbon. Treating legacy CO2 as a resource with economic value rather than a pollutant allows us to generate revenue while also fighting climate change. \n\nHowever\, not all uses or types of captured CO2 are equal in terms of environmental or economic benefits. This exhibit includes a video game that helps explain the pros and cons associated with different methods and applications of carbon capture. \n\nAdditionally\, it also provides examples of two types of carbon removal\, an interactive block activity\, and sample products made from captured CO2.

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:114750-21833455@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.

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:86001-21795840@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:20240317T180104 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20240320T110000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20240320T120000 SUMMARY:Presentation:Low rank symmetric fusion categories in positive characteristic DESCRIPTION:In this talk\, we look at the classification problem for symmetric fusion categories in positive characteristic. We recall the second Adams operation on the Grothendieck ring and use its properties to obtain some classification results. In particular\, we show that the Adams operation is not the identity for any non-trivial symmetric fusion category. We also give lower bounds for the rank of a (non-super-Tannakian) symmetric fusion category in terms of the characteristic of the field. As an application of these results\, we classify all symmetric fusion categories of rank 3 and those of rank 4 with exactly two self-dual simple objects.

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.

We explore a new dynamical mechanism\, where in the presence of an arbitrary number density of baryons and dark matter\, a scalar adjusts the masses of dark matter and baryons until the two energy densities are comparable. In this manner\, the coincidence is explained regardless of the microscopic identity of dark matter and how it was produced. This new scalar causes a variety of experimental effects such as a new force and a (dark) matter density dependent proton mass.

In the case of toric varieties associated to a (nice enough) fan\, the cohomology is isomorphic to a combinatorial Chow ring. As their name suggests\, the generators and relations of these rings can be described directly from the combinatorics of the fan. We will describe these rings\, and give several detailed examples.

In this model\, technology substitutes the usage of skill in routine tasks\, in contrast to standard RBTC models which assume technology replaces the workers themselves. The SR-RBTC model explains three key trends that are inconsistent with standard RBTC models: why specifically middle-wages declined even though routine workers are dispersed across the entire bottom half of the wage distribution\, why middle-wages stopped declining while the technological change continued\, and why there is no substantial decline in the average wage of routine workers. I derive two new testable predictions from the model: a decrease in return to skill\, and a decrease in skill level in routine occupations. I use an interactive-fixed-effect model to con- firm both predictions. Since SR-RBTC violates the ignorability assumption required by standard decomposition methods\, I introduce “skewness decomposition” to show that SR-RBTC is the main driver of bottom-half inequality trends.\n\nThis talk is presented by the Labor Economics Seminar\, sponsored in part by the Department of Economics with generous gifts given through the Abraham and Thelma Zwerdling Labor Economics Program.

Evidence on Racial Gaps in Retirement Wealth Accumulation (co authored with Taha Choukhmane\, Jorge Colmenares\, Jonathan Rothbaum\, and Lawrence Schmidt) DESCRIPTION:U.S. employers and the federal government devote more than 1.5% of GDP annually towards promoting Defined Contribution retirement saving. We study the distributional and lifetime impact of these savings incentives across racial groups using a new employer-employee linked data set covering millions of Americans. The average contribution rate of Black and Hispanic workers is roughly 40% lower than that of White workers. The rich and the children of the rich save more\; racial differences in own and parental incomes account for a large share of the racial contribution gaps. Tax and employer matching subsidies further amplify these saving differences by channeling more resources to those who save more. We estimate that breaking the link between contribution choices and saving subsidies\, through revenue-neutral reforms\, would significantly reduce racial gaps and intergenerational persistence in wealth.\n\nThis talk is presented by the Macroeconomics Seminar\, sponsored by the Department of Economics with generous gifts given through the Michael Beauregard Fund for Macroeconomics and the Economics Strategic Fund.

The North American Nanohertz Observatory for Gravitational Waves (NANOGrav) Collaboration has recently released their 15-year data set containing observations of 68 millisecond pulsars. These data contain evidence for Hellings-Downs correlations\, which are characteristic of a gravitational wave background. In this talk\, I will present these results\, and discuss the spectral properties of the signal and implications for the astrophysical source. I will also discuss prospects for detecting other types of gravitational wave sources with pulsar timing arrays\, including individual supermassive binary black holes.

Often\, the evolution of non-LTE plasmas is interpreted using the first few fluid moments of the phase space density – density\, momentum\, bulk kinetic energy\, and internal energy. However\, for a system not in LTE\, there are an infinite number of possible moments of the phase space density that can be important. The evolution of higher order moments is typically not considered. We discuss an approach to describe the evolution of all higher order moments (Phys. Rev. Lett.\, 130\, 085201\, 2023) that employs the so-called relative entropy (J. Soc. Indust. Appl. Math.\, 13\, 259\, 1965) describing all the non-LTE structure of the phase space density. We derive an equation for its time evolution and argue its form is related to the first law of thermodynamics. We introduce a new quantity we call the “higher order non-equilibrium terms” (HORNET) which quantifies the rate a phase space density approaches or moves away from LTE (Phys. Rev. E\, submitted). It has dimensions of power density so it can be directly compared to standard power densities. We demonstrate the results in particle-in-cell simulations of magnetic reconnection\, decaying plasma turbulence\, and Landau damping of Langmuir waves.\n\nAbout the Speaker: \nPaul Cassak is a professor in the Department of Physics and Astronomy at West Virginia University.

This is no accident. The Roman empire was an ‘empire of cities’. In the western Mediterranean\, where there were relatively few\, the Romans planted an enormous number of new ones. The East\, on the other hand\, was already densely populated with cities. Here the ancient settlements of the Levant flourished under Roman rule\, growing steadily in size and prosperity.\n\nThese cities gradually took on a new appearance too\, as they each acquired a selection of the grand appurtenances and amenities of a Roman metropolis or model city: aqueducts\, vaulted bath buildings\, stone theaters\, covered markets\, colonnaded streets\, monumental frontal temple buildings. In recent years these cities have attracted a fair amount of attention from archaeologists and historians\; but they generally remain outside our accepted narratives of the evolving urban cultures of the Roman world.\n\nThe Jerome Thomas Spencer Lecture series revisits these long-established centers of the Roman Near East\, and the various ancient peoples who inhabited them. The lectures will seek to trace\, through the archaeology and historical sources\, the transformation of these cities\, from the late first century BCE until Late Antiquity and even into the Early Islamic period\; and to describe the ways in which there emerged—here in the monumental spaces of these Levantine communities—a range of new and distinctive kinds of ‘urbanity’.\n\nUrban development in the Roman period prompted a welter of political\, social\, and religious changes — all of which resulted in a number of different ‘regimes of urban living’\, distinctive to the region. The lectures will take us through a series of extremely varied – but recognizable – urban landscapes: the Decapolis\, the Limestone Massif and the Tetrapolis\; the settlements along the Mediterranean coast\; and places deep inland such as Palmyra in the Syrian Desert and the Hauran. But by the end of the journey\, the lectures shall have situated these cities as physical manifestations of a local or regional experiment in ‘urban self-fashioning’ — as the peoples of the region\, collectively and individually\, availed themselves of the alluring opportunities of the Roman peace.\n\nRubina Raja is a Professor of Classical Archaeology and Art at Aarhus University\, Denmark\, and Centre director of the Danish National Research Foundation’s Centre of Excellence for Urban Network Evolutions at Aarhus University\, Denmark.\n\nProfessor Raja studied classical archaeology at Oxford (M.St. and D.Phil) after undergraduate studies at the University of Copenhagen and Università di Roma\, La Sapienza\, Italy\, and has worked during her studies at the Danish Ministry of Culture. After her DPhil\, she held post-docs in Hamburg\, Germany\, and Aarhus\, Denmark. She was an associate professor at Aarhus University between 2009 and 2012\, and in 2012\, she was appointed professor with special responsibilities. In 2015\, she took up the professorial chair of Classical Art and Archaeology at Aarhus University as the first female professor in the field in Denmark ever. There\, she has also since 2015 directed the Danish National Research Foundation’s Centre of Excellence for Urban Network Evolutions. Raja has published widely on Greco-Roman portraiture\, ancient religion\, and its monuments\, urban development from the Hellenistic to the Medieval periods in the Eastern Mediterranean\, cultural heritage in conflict zones\, and legacy data. She is known for her groundbreaking work on the Syrian oasis city Palmyra and her high-impact collaborative archaeological fieldwork in Jerash and Rome. She has received numerous international research awards and honors\, including the Humboldt Foundation’s Friedrich Wilhelm Bessel Prize\, Queen Margrethe IIs Rome Prize\, the Elite Research Prize\, and the Silver Medal for outstanding research in the humanities and social sciences awarded by the Royal Danish Academy of Sciences and Letters\, where she has been a member since 2015. She holds several leadership and management degrees from INSEAD\, Paris\, and Copenhagen Business School\, among other institutions. She has mentored junior and senior scholars in career development programs\, and is the author of numerous outreach features on the importance of the humanities broadly in today’s rapidly changing world – underlining in which ways Classics remain relevant in our day and age. In 2023\, she was a visiting fellow at All Souls College at her Alma Mater institution\, the University of Oxford.\n\nRaja is an experienced field archaeologist\, having headed projects in the Middle East and Italy since 2011. Her research focuses on urban and societal developments as well as networks from the Hellenistic to the medieval periods\, iconography\, and religion in Antiquity\, with a focus on the Eastern Mediterranean and Rome. She has pioneered research intersecting archaeology and natural sciences\, bringing high-definition studies of the past to the forefront.

It is an infinite dimensional scheme whose geometry can be used to analyze and control invariants of singularities. Traditionally this is done by focusing on the topological structure of arc spaces\, but recent developments suggest that its scheme structure (its singularities\, its non-reduced scheme structure) should also play an important role. For instance\, embedding dimensions and codimensions in local rings of arc spaces are related to the computation of discrepancies and to a theorem of Drinfeld\, Grinberg\, and Kazhdan (DGK) on formal neighborhood of arcs. In collaboration with C. Chiu and T. de Fernex\, we have been developing a toolbox for the study of the scheme structure of arc spaces and jet schemes. The starting point is an explicit formula for the sheaf of differentials on the arc space\, which leads to new results (a converse to the DGK theorem\, the control of arc fibers\, and a description of Nash blow-ups of jet schemes) as well as simpler and more direct proofs of some of the fundamental theorems in the literature (numerical versions of the birational transformation rule in motivic integration and the Denef-Loeser lemma\, and a new proof of the curve selection lemma for arc spaces). In this talk\, I will give an overview of the latest developments in this area.

Photoredox methods to generate electrophilic •CF3 are robust and powerful\, but outer-sphere methods suffer from the lack of selectivity inherent to •CF3 radicals. Organometallic approaches suggest solutions\, but metal-catalyzed trifluoromethylations are frequently challenged by the intrinsic properties of the M−CF3 intermediates. Whereas early transition metal M−CF3 bonds readily undergo α-fluoride abstraction to generate difluoromethyl carbene complexes\, M−CF3 bonds to low-valent later 3d metals are often thermodynamically robust and kinetically inert. We have developed a photoinduced method to activate thermodynamically stable Co(III)–CF3 bonds for selective arene C–H trifluoromethylations. Central to this strategy is the capacity of pincer (OCO)Co complexes to function as combined chromophores and organometallic reaction centers. Low energy visible light capture leads to intramolecular LMCT from a redox-active [OCO] pincer ligand to Co\, which destabilizes the Co–CF3 bond toward homolysis and release of a persistent •CF3 radical. The capacity of the Co(II) byproduct to catalyze H2 production permits direct arene C–H trifluoromethylation without a sacrificial or substrate-derived oxidant. This seminar will describe our recent extensions to photocatalysis and ongoing efforts to elaborate regiospecific radical substitution via intramolecular photolytic arene C–H trifluoromethylations and alkylations. Structure-property relationships will be presented\, which are guiding new ligand designs and establishing design principles for next generation base metal photocatalysis.

However\, this brutal attitude is seemingly hidden without clear responsibilities from Suharto’s or current militarism. To question the responsibility of the Suharto regime and the Indonesian government\, this talk discusses how the selected literary texts written by Indonesian Muslimah writers\, such as Leila Chudori’s The Sea Speaks His Name (2017) and Okky Madasari’s The Years of the Voiceless (2010) challenge militarism and neocolonialism perpetuated by Suharto’s regime for 33 years (1965-1998). This discussion is essential to challenge neocolonialism and the legacy of colonialism\, which is seemingly over but perpetuated by the militarism that oppressed and silenced Indonesian people\, especially in the era of Suharto’s Orde Baru (New Era) even though Indonesia is now getting better and developed well under the Reform era\, which is a more open political-social environment and grassroots economic improvement since May 1998.\n \n Dr. Hasnul Insani Djohar is a Fulbright Scholar-in-Residence (2023-24) at Southern Utah University and an Associate Professor of English and Head of the English Department (2019-2023) at Syarif Hidayatullah Islamic State University Jakarta.

Most of us ‘epigeneticists’ adhere to the modern operational definition of epigenetics as ‘the study of mitotically and/or meiotically heritable changes in gene function that cannot be explained by changes in DNA sequence’\, or the back-translation of it as ‘epi’ (above\, on top of) + genetics. As J. Greally points out\, the original definition for ‘epigenetics’ is actually cellular in nature\, which encompasses cellular reprogramming and cell type formation (‘polycreodism’). We posit that both cellular and molecular aspects are essential to understanding the origination of ovarian cancer. In this seminar I will discuss how menstrual cycle and cell states impact the histotype selection for endometriosis-associated ovarian cancer (EAOC)\, and a new single-cell RNA-seq technology to study the cellular and molecular landscape for the human Fallopian tube\, the site of origin for high-grade serous ovarian cancer (HGSOC).\n\nBio:\nDr. Shen received her B.Sc. in biology from Nanjing University and her Ph.D. in genetic\, molecular\, and cellular biology from the University of Southern California (USC) with a Provost PhD Fellowship. Dr. Shen has been part of The Cancer Genome Atlas team\, a multi-institutional effort to better understand the molecular basis of cancer through genomic analysis. She joined VAI in September 2014 as an assistant professor and\, in 2023\, was promoted to professor. She is currently an F1000 Faculty Member for Cancer Epigenetics\, and has been awarded the Liz Tilberis Award by Ovarian Cancer Research Alliance\, an NIH/NCI ESI MERIT award and an AACR Team Science Award.

In this paper\, we provide empirical evidence that this policy harms retail traders in the form of higher trading costs. Using two quasi-experiments involving Robinhood’s trading hours and the discontinuity around 5% spread\, we find that Robinhood customers have higher likelihood of paying extreme spreads over close prices. Further\, the policy is associated with extreme price movements in stocks. We estimate that the economic loss of the retail traders due to order collaring is on the order of millions of dollars per day.
