SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Dissertation Defense Seminar: Jordan Byrne
DESCRIPTION:Spatial organization of protein-based organelles is increasingly recognized as a fundamental requirement for bacterial physiology. Carboxysomes\, encapsulins\, and biomolecular condensates compartmentalize metabolic reactions throughout diverse bacteria\, yet their positioning within cells remains poorly understood. Mislocalization of these structures leads to heterogeneous inheritance\, reduced metabolic output\, and impaired growth\, and poses a major challenge for efforts to engineer synthetic organelles in model hosts such as Escherichia coli. The Maintenance of Carboxysome Distribution (Mcd) system\, composed of the ParA-like ATPase McdA and the adaptor McdB\, directs equidistant positioning of carboxysomes along the nucleoid. Although ParA and MinD family ATPases are well studied\, little is known about the molecular features that govern adaptor specificity and function. Furthermore\, many adaptors\, including McdB\, form biomolecular condensates\, suggesting that phase separation may contribute to organelle control\, but the underlying sequence determinants remain unclear. This dissertation addresses these knowledge gaps by dissecting the regions and residues of McdB that mediate phase separation\, interaction with McdA\, and leverage control of organelle positioning\, and by applying these insights to develop programmable spatial organization tools for synthetic biology.\n\nThe McdB adaptor protein undergoes phase separation. I show here that McdB condensates mature from liquid- to gel-like condensates. Given that glutamine residues are known to contribute to maturation in other condensate-forming proteins\, I mutated a glutamine-rich region of McdB from Synechococcus elongatus to determine its role in McdB structure\, oligomerization and phase separation activity. \n\nSecond\, I generated sequence variants in Halothiobacillus neapolitanus McdB and showed that specific N-terminal basic residues\, particularly K7\, are necessary for full McdA engagement and proper carboxysome distribution in vivo\, revealing that cargo positioning and cargo partitioning are mechanistically separable functions of the Mcd system. \n\nThird\, I translated these mechanistic insights into a synthetic\, minimal positioning toolkit by engineering modular “Minimal Autonomous Positioning” (Map) tags derived from McdB. When fused to biomolecular condensates or encapsulins in Escherichia coli\, Map tags conferred McdA-dependent nucleoid-associated spacing patterns\, transforming immobile aggregates into dynamic and evenly distributed intracellular structures. \n\nTogether\, this work identifies domain- and residue-level determinants that govern McdB-mediated organelle positioning and condensate behavior\, clarifies adaptor-ATPase specificity principles in ParA/MinD-type systems\, and establishes a transferable genetic strategy for engineering intracellular spatial organization in bacteria. These findings advance both fundamental understanding of bacterial cell organization and the development of spatially programmable tools for microbial synthetic biology.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:GalleryDAAS Presents: Archives of Resistance: Visuals and Voices from Carceral State Project Research
DESCRIPTION:Opening December 8\, 2025 and running through January 2026\nGalleryDAAS| Haven Hall| G648| Monday - Friday 10-4pm\n\nThis exhibit showcases stories of resistance\, resilience\, and hope\, in the face of mass incarceration\, police violence\, immigrant detention\, and systematic racial criminalization. Archives of Resistance presents art\, prisoner correspondence\, research publications\, and archival documentation produced by the component projects of the Carceral State Project. These include: The Reckoning Project\, Immigrant Justice Lab\, Black & Pink at SPH\, ICE in the Heartland\, Critical Carceral Visualities\, Policing & Social Justice HistoryLab\, and Confronting Conditions of Confinement and Resistance. Artwork made by people in prison through Prison Creative Arts Project workshops is also on display. \n\nThe U-M Carceral State Project\, housed within the Department of Afroamerican and African Studies\, brings impacted communities and advocacy organizations together with researchers from the University of Michigan. The CSP was first organized in 2018 and has since grown to involve over a dozen community and campus partners\, many graduate students\, and more than 400 undergraduate researchers. \n\nThrough public scholarship\, creative expression\, multimedia storytelling\, and archival documentation\, we highlight the lived experiences and persistent resistance of those impacted by criminalization\, policing\, incarceration\, immigrant detention\, and other forms of carceral control in the state of Michigan and beyond. The work presented in this exhibit represents only a sliver of the extensive research\, art\, advocacy\, public engagement\, and other products generated by the Carceral State Project over the years.

SUMMARY:Presentation:Leveraging Intentional Collisions to Enhance Aerial Manipulation
DESCRIPTION:Committee Chairs: Brent Gillespie and Ella Atkins\n\nZoom Link: https://umich.zoom.us/j/95579522863\n\nAbstract: \nUncrewed Aircraft Systems (UAS) have become essential in tasks that are too difficult or dangerous for humans. This dissertation was initially inspired by the challenge of making rainforest tree sampling safer for botanists\, who often need to climb dangerously tall trees. Building on this motivation\, we developed a new approach for aerial manipulation that enables interaction with objects of unknown dynamics through intentional collisions using a pogo-stick payload. The key insight is that intentional collisions consolidate all potential disturbance forces into a single impulse\, the outcome of which is hopefully simpler to predict. Given assumptions on the dynamics of the interaction object\, the map from pre- to post-impact states (collision response) is known\, providing an opportunity to choose pre-impact states that will result in recoverable post-impact states.\n\nThe use of intentional collisions with a UAS presents unique challenges due to underactuation. Collision outcomes are set by strike velocity and orientation\, yet hitting a desired point requires full position control. Traditional UAS actuator configurations cannot provide both full position and attitude control authority. This dissertation presents several approaches to mitigate underactuation and enable aerial manipulation with intentional collisions.\n\nTo begin\, this dissertation develops the strategy of using intentional collisions in a flight mode called Velocity Matching. The Velocity Matching flight mode starts in two phases: launch phase and then the Velocity Matching phase. During the launch phase\, the UAS is sped up horizontally to \"launch\" the vehicle\, assumed thereafter to behave ballistically\, towards the target. After launch\, the Velocity Matching phase is entered\, and thrust is limited to the bare minimum thrust required for attitude control. During the Velocity Matching phase the minimal thrust attitude control is used to align the center-of-mass velocity vector of the UAS with the pogo-stick’s orientation at strike. Using simulation and flight tests\, we generate a map from pre-launch modes states into recoverable post-impact states\, allowing for planned strikes.\n\nSecond\, we refine the flight control from Velocity Matching to a cascaded position–attitude switching controller (called Switching Control). In the Switching Control mode\, the UAS flies in position cascaded PID control for most of the trajectory\, then switches at the last moment to attitude cascaded PID control for pre-strike alignment. We also provide a tool to predict the best switching time from an initial displacement\, and we validate the approach experimentally.\n\nFinally\, we develop a new control approach involving an actuated pogo-stick payload controlled via a partial feedback linearizing controller to regulate both UAS position and pogo-stick orientation. After validating the actuated pogo-stick in simulation\, we built a physical cable-driven version that slides along a hemispherical base. This mechanism provides two-degree-of-freedom orientation control (pitch and roll compensation) and keeps the pogo-stick perpendicular to the UAS center of mass\, enabling more favorable\, recoverable collision responses.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:For All Ages Exhibit
DESCRIPTION:In the 19th century\, new ideas about childhood and education\, along with advances in printing like chromolithography\, made it possible to mass-produce games and toys. These were not only fun to play with but also taught practical skills and moral lessons. Learn about familiar and unique toys and board games throughout American history in the William L. Clements Library’s new exhibit\, “For All Ages” on view weekdays from 12-4 pm between October 3-January 5.\n\nEven though the objects are behind glass\, the co-curators have created an interactive way to explore the display. Visit the exhibit to participate in a scavenger hunt and win a prize!

SUMMARY:Exhibition:GalleryDAAS Presents: Archives of Resistance: Visuals and Voices from Carceral State Project Research
DESCRIPTION:Opening December 8\, 2025 and running through January 2026\nGalleryDAAS| Haven Hall| G648| Monday - Friday 10-4pm\n\nThis exhibit showcases stories of resistance\, resilience\, and hope\, in the face of mass incarceration\, police violence\, immigrant detention\, and systematic racial criminalization. Archives of Resistance presents art\, prisoner correspondence\, research publications\, and archival documentation produced by the component projects of the Carceral State Project. These include: The Reckoning Project\, Immigrant Justice Lab\, Black & Pink at SPH\, ICE in the Heartland\, Critical Carceral Visualities\, Policing & Social Justice HistoryLab\, and Confronting Conditions of Confinement and Resistance. Artwork made by people in prison through Prison Creative Arts Project workshops is also on display. \n\nThe U-M Carceral State Project\, housed within the Department of Afroamerican and African Studies\, brings impacted communities and advocacy organizations together with researchers from the University of Michigan. The CSP was first organized in 2018 and has since grown to involve over a dozen community and campus partners\, many graduate students\, and more than 400 undergraduate researchers. \n\nThrough public scholarship\, creative expression\, multimedia storytelling\, and archival documentation\, we highlight the lived experiences and persistent resistance of those impacted by criminalization\, policing\, incarceration\, immigrant detention\, and other forms of carceral control in the state of Michigan and beyond. The work presented in this exhibit represents only a sliver of the extensive research\, art\, advocacy\, public engagement\, and other products generated by the Carceral State Project over the years.
