SUMMARY:Ecology of Presence: Pathways to the Natural World
DESCRIPTION:Norris Center Art + Science Graduate Fellowship Exhibition \nEcology of Presence: Pathways to the Natural World brings together the work of ten graduate students supported by the Kenneth S. Norris Center for Natural History Art + Science Fellowship\, a program dedicated to creative research connecting art with the natural world. Across media – including sound\, moving image\, music\, performance\, installation\, comics\, social practice\, photography\, and storytelling – the artists in Ecology of Presence emphasize relationality and careful attention to place as essential to building relationships with environs. As accelerating environmental change and technological dependency threaten ways of belonging\, the works in this exhibition maintain a steadfast commitment to interdisciplinary approaches that propose kinship with the natural world. By coming together\, Art + Science Fellows artworks and social practices suggest ways of imagining human life in relation to the more-than-human world.

SUMMARY:Labor Against ICE
DESCRIPTION:Trump’s second term has been marked by a dramatic increase in immigration enforcement operations\, including the deployment of federal and national guard troops to major cities across the United States. Ramped-up ICE raids have resulted in injuries\, deaths\, and the disappearance of migrants and non migrants alike. As legal challenges demanding the cessation of indiscriminate workplace and neighborhood raids have largely failed\, how are workers and communities fighting back?

SUMMARY:Macroeconomics & International Finance Seminar Series Presents: Dean Corbae
DESCRIPTION:Macroeconomics and International Finance Seminar\nDate: Tuesday\, January 13\, 2026\nTime: 1:40-3:00 p.m.\nLocation: E2-499\n\n \n\nSpeaker: Dean Corbae\nTitle: William Sellery Trukenbrod Chair in Finance\nAffiliation: University of Wisconsin – Madison\nHost: Grace Gu Steadmon\n \nSeminar title:  A Quantitative Model of Bank Merger Dynamics\n \n\nABSTRACT: \nWe develop a simple model of the bank merger process to study the rise in bank concentration following the deregulation of bank branching in the Riegle-Neal Act of 1994. Motivated by the data where currently 10 (dominant) banks have over 55 percent of the U.S. deposit market share while the remaining over 4000 (fringe) banks cover the rest\, we apply a dominant-fringe framework with a merger stage to model the rise in concentration following the change in regulation making interstate branching possible. First\, we study the effect of the merger wave on competition\, efficiency\, and stability of the banking industry. Then we use our model to understand the interaction between regulatory and monetary policy. Specifically\, how has the bank lending channel of monetary policy been affected by rising concentration; has it amplified or dampened the effectiveness of monetary policy? How might monetary policy itself contribute to mergers and rising concentration?

SUMMARY:AM Seminar: Science in the Age of Foundation Models
DESCRIPTION:Presenter: Dr. Danielle Robinson\, AWS AI \nDescription: In this talk\, I will discuss the large impact of foundation models within the sciences with a particular focus on the importance of physical constraints and uncertainty quantification. First\, I will detail our novel ProbConserv framework for enforcing hard constraints within black-box deep learning models. ProbConserv provides uncertainty quantification\, and can be used to enforce conservation law constraints as well as other nonlinear constraints. Next\, I will discuss its extensions to ensembles of Neural Operators and out-of-distribution (OOD) estimations\, as well as how it can be used in constrained generative modeling of PDEs. I will then show applications of our work in computational fluid dynamics (CFD)\, including weather forecasting\, aerodynamics and chaotic systems. Lastly\, I will conclude with a forward-looking view of the next steps for designing a physics foundation model that can be applied across various types of flows\, geometries and boundary conditions\, and what is needed for such a model to be developed. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nBio: Danielle Maddix Robinson is a Senior Applied Scientist in the Machine Learning Forecasting Group within AWS AI. She graduated with her PhD in Computational and Mathematical Engineering from the Institute of Computational and Mathematical Engineering (ICME) at Stanford University. She was advised by Professor Margot Gerritsen and developed robust numerical methods to remove spurious temporal oscillations in the degenerate nonlinear Generalized Porous Medium Equation. She is passionate about the underlying numerical analysis\, linear algebra and optimization methods behind numerical PDEs and applying these techniques to deep learning. During her PhD\, she also did an internship at NVIDIA with Joe Eaton and Alex Fender\, and implemented an efficient and load-balanced sparse matrix vector multiplication (spmv) in cuSPARSE and nvGRAPH libraries. She is excited to be back at NVIDIA today. After graduating\, Danielle joined AWS in 2018\, and has been working on developing statistical and deep learning foundation models for time series forecasting including Chronos. Over the last several years\, she has been leading the research initiative on developing models for physics-constrained machine learning for scientific computing on the DeepEarth team. In particular\, she has researched how to apply ideas from numerical methods\, e.g.\, finite volume schemes\, to improve the accuracy of black-box ML models for PDEs with applications to ocean and climate models\, aerodynamics and chaotic systems. \n\n\n\nHosted by: Applied Mathematics\n\n\n\nLink: https://ucsc.zoom.us/j/96136632376?pwd=yb27lop8mnhnsairAPgezmVJZzFb74.1.

SUMMARY:Kathleen Schmidt: Sequential Experimental Design for Materials Strength Model Calibration
DESCRIPTION:Presenter: Katie Schmidt\, UQ & Optimization Group Leader\, Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory \nDescription: Due to the time and expense associated with physical experiments\, there is significant interest in optimal selection of the conditions for future experiments. Selection based on reduction in parameter uncertainty provides a natural path forward. We consider this type of optimal sequential design in the context of Bayesian calibration of materials strength models with the strength model characterizing the evolving resistance of a material to permanent strain. This problem is particularly challenging because different types of experiments and associated diagnostics are employed across strain rate regimes. For lower-strain-rate experiments\, stress-strain curves can be measured directly. For higher-strain-rate experiments\, strength must be inferred (e.g.\, from the deformation of a cylinder of material in a Taylor cylinder experiment). We employ data fusion in our sequential design methodology to incorporate these multiple experimental modalities. \nLLNL-ABS-835231 This work was performed under the auspices of the U.S. Department of Energy by Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory under Contract DE-AC52-07NA27344. \nBio: Katie Schmidt is the UQ & Optimization Group Leader at Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory. She joined LLNL in 2016 after earning a PhD in Applied Mathematics from North Carolina State University. During her time at the lab\, Katie has been involved in a variety of uncertainty quantification problems related to national security as well as outreach and education through LLNL’s Data Science Institute. Her research interests include mixed-effects models\, Bayesian inference\, sequential design\, and sensitivity analysis. \nHosted by: Statistics Department

By coming together\, Art + Science Fellows artworks and social practices suggest ways of imagining human life in relation to the more-than-human world.

DESCRIPTION:Norris Center Art + Science Graduate Fellowship Exhibition \nEcology of Presence: Pathways to the Natural World brings together the work of ten graduate students supported by the Kenneth S. Norris Center for Natural History Art + Science Fellowship\, a program dedicated to creative research connecting art with the natural world. Across media – including sound\, moving image\, music\, performance\, installation\, comics\, social practice\, photography\, and storytelling – the artists in Ecology of Presence emphasize relationality and careful attention to place as essential to building relationships with environs. As accelerating environmental change and technological dependency threaten ways of belonging\, the works in this exhibition maintain a steadfast commitment to interdisciplinary approaches that propose kinship with the natural world. By coming together\, Art + Science Fellows artworks and social practices suggest ways of imagining human life in relation to the more-than-human world.
