Kuhlman Foundation\, Inc. is a non-profit entity established by the estate of Barbara L. Kuhlman. Ms. Kuhlman\, a college professor\, and life-long supporter of fiber arts achieved world-renowned status as a collector\, lecturer\, and author in her field. The Foundation continues her dedication to fiber arts and closely related fields with ph ilanthropic sponsorships\, grants\, and student scholarships.\n\nThe 2026 Barbara L. Kuhlman Scholars’ Group Exhibition showcases unique garments\ , wearable art\, and textile interpretations of the theme\, Elemental. Fiv e students in the Department of Human Centered Design were awarded Kuhlman scholarships in December 2025. Each scholar conducted design research\, f ocusing on the stories they wanted to tell and the techniques they wanted to explore from concept development to execution. The theme Elemental was chosen to reflect upon the power of nature. Each student approached elemen tal from a different perspective and yet one commonality seems to be the e xamination of our relationship with nature. Will focusing on the elements offer a reprieve? Can it take us to a dark place? According to the work in this exhibition\, the answer is yes. It is a subject that contains multit udes. We hope you enjoy seeing the creative journeys this year's Kuhlman S cholars took.

For questions\, contact seap@cornell.edu.\n\nAbstract\n\nIn many pa rts of the world\, the Philippines is synonymous with labor migration. Whe ther to Europe\, the Middle East\, East Asia\, North America\, Philippine workers have come to dominate the immigration labor force. The narrative t hat often accompanies this mass migration is one of state failure and unde rdevelopment\, of migration serving as a safety valve for a population in need of employment and resources that could not be obtained at home. While this account is not wrong\, it is also not complete. The Philippine migra tion is also the product of explicit state policy to produce temporary\, c ontract-based migration\, for the purpose of supporting national industria l policy. Though the goal of industrialization was never achieved\, the la bor export policy did eventually become the lynchpin of a new economic mod el\, one that has achieved relatively high rates of growth since the turn of the 21st century. This presentation examines this history\, and offers an analysis for why and how the labor export policy emerged and evolved ov er the past half-century.\n\nAbout the Speaker\n\nSuzy Lee is a sociologis t and legal scholar whose work focuses on international labor migration\, the transformations in migration law and policy in the neoliberal era\, an d the implication of migration policy for the protection of migrants’ ri ghts. Lee's primary line of research examines the development of sending s tate policy regimes\, with a focus on contract migration programs in the P hilippines and South Korea. Other projects include studies on the effect o f neoliberal economic policy on migration regimes\, immigration policy and human trafficking\, and the formation of political identity in deindustri alized and rural regions of the U.S. LAST-MODIFIED:20260909T000215Z LOCATION:Sage Hall B05 URL:https://events.cornell.edu/event/4-temporary-measures-migrant-workers- and-the-developmental-state-in-the-philippines-and-south-korea?utm_source= caldiscovery&utm_medium=ics&utm_campaign=ithaca-ny X-SOURCE-NAME:Cornell Calendar X-SOURCE-URL:https://events.cornell.edu END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT SUMMARY:Energy Engineering Seminar: Michael Weill '79 (BHP) DTSTART:20261001T162000Z DTEND:20261001T171000Z DTSTAMP:20260812T120249Z UID:tag:localist.com\,2008:EventInstance_53675574184020 CATEGORIES:education DESCRIPTION:Strait of Hormuz Closure: Largest Oil Supply Shock Ever or Ho Hum\n\nThe closure of the Strait of Hormuz due to the Iran War represents the largest supply shock to the world's oil trade with 20% of world supply disappearing overnight.

In the years to centuries before they exp lode\, they lose material that forms a complex circumstellar environment\, preserving a record of their final stages of evolution. When the supernov a blast wave encounters this surrounding material\, the resulting interact ion generates emission across the electromagnetic spectrum\, offering a un ique opportunity to probe both the explosion and the progenitor's mass-los s history. In this colloquium\, I will present how multi-wavelength observ ations—from radio and optical to X-ray wavelengths—are transforming ou r understanding of circumstellar interaction in supernovae. Recent observa tions reveal that circumstellar environments are remarkably diverse\, refl ecting a wide range of progenitor properties and mass-loss mechanisms. By combining observations across different wavelengths\, we can constrain the density\, geometry\, and composition of the circumstellar material\, prov iding new insights into the final evolutionary stages of massive stars. I will discuss recent observational results that highlight this diversity an d demonstrate how coordinated multi-wavelength studies are reshaping our p icture of stellar death. These findings offer important clues to the poorl y understood processes governing mass loss in the final years before core collapse.

We devel oped a volumetric FIB-SEM imaging protocol for the zebrafish cornea\, span ning the full corneal stroma thickness of 6-10 µm\, with a voxel size of 4 nm. The fibrils are about 20 nm thick and form orthogonal layers. The di stances between adjacent collagen fibrils are also uniform\, about 18-20 n m\, attributable to their proteoglycan-mediated hydration shells. Our cust om 3D centroid tracking analysis demonstrated remarkable continuity of the fibrils\, that are gently twisted within orthogonal layers. The twist res ults in geometric frustration that is apparently resolved by layer branchi ng with a strikingly repetitive angle 12°. This branching makes the ortho gonal layers of the cornea bicontinuous. Within one layer\, the fibrils de monstrate hexatic packing with uniform spacing\, consistent with the posit ion of proteoglycans. The hexatic packing\, helicity\, anastomotic branchi ng and orthogonality can be theoretically explained by inanimate physical interactions and hierarchical self-assembly of collagen fibrils in a crowd ed milieu\, rather than by obligate cell-mediated control.\n \n\nBio: Nata lie Reznikov is an associate professor at the Department of Bioengineering at McGill University\, Montreal.

He will argue that Western governments respon ded to 9/11 by sharply separating Islam from jihadist violence\, treating terrorism as the work of a fringe ideology. Over the following two decades \, that distinction shaped government policy\, academia\, media coverage\, immigration debates\, and the broader treatment of Islam in Western publi c life.\n\n \n\nThe speech then turns to October 7\, briefly covers the Is lamic war on Israel\, and then addresses how the Hamas attack exposed the convergence between Islam and the left. Burmawi will address how the Islam ic language of jihad was rebranded by translating it into the political vo cabulary of resistance\, decolonization\, and anti-imperialism\, while hos tility toward Israel became the point at which the two movements could coo perate despite their profound ideological differences.\n\nDanny Burmawi is a Jordanian-born author\, analyst\, and public intellectual specializing in comparative religions\, Theology\, and Middle East Affairs. He is the f ounder and executive director of the Ideological Defense Institute (IDI)\, a U.S.-based research and public-education institute.\n\nBorn and raised in a Muslim family in Jordan\, Burmawi converted to Christianity in 2007. As a result\, he was forced to leave his home country and relocate to Leba non\, where he lived and worked for approximately fifteen years. During th is period\, he founded and led multiple Christian organizations across the Middle East\, traveled to more than forty countries and delivered lecture s\, seminars\, and training programs across the Middle East\, Europe\, and North America. Due to the sensitivity of his work\, much of it was conduc ted under a low public profile. \n\nIn 2023\, months before the October 7 Hamas attack on Israel\, Burmawi relocated to the United States to pursue advanced theological studies. The scale of the October 7 atrocities and th e subsequent ideological fallout in Western capitals\, particularly the fa ilure of mainstream analysis to account for the religious and ideological drivers of the conflict\, prompted him to found the Ideological Defense In stitute.\n\nSince October 7\, Burmawi has published more than one hundred long-form articles and thousands of short-form analytical commentaries\, f ocusing on the ideological nature of the Arab–Israeli conflict\, Islamic movements in Western societies\, mass migration\, and the erosion of civi lizational confidence in the West. His work has appeared across mainstream media outlets and major podcasts\, and his analysis has rapidly attracted a substantial international following across social media platforms.\n\nH e is the author of Islam\, Israel and the West\, a best-selling book exami ning the theological and ideological foundations of the Arab–Israeli con flict and Western engagement with political Islam.\n\nThere will be plenty of time for questions after the talk and questions are strongly encourage d!\n\nHosted by the Heterodox Academy/Civic Renaissance Campus Community a t Cornell University.

Ms. Kuhlman\, a college professor\, and life-long supporter of fiber arts achieved world-renowned status as a collector\, lecturer\, and author in her field. The Foundation continues her dedication to fiber arts and closely related fields with ph ilanthropic sponsorships\, grants\, and student scholarships.\n\nThe 2026 Barbara L. Kuhlman Scholars’ Group Exhibition showcases unique garments\ , wearable art\, and textile interpretations of the theme\, Elemental. Fiv e students in the Department of Human Centered Design were awarded Kuhlman scholarships in December 2025. Each scholar conducted design research\, f ocusing on the stories they wanted to tell and the techniques they wanted to explore from concept development to execution. The theme Elemental was chosen to reflect upon the power of nature. Each student approached elemen tal from a different perspective and yet one commonality seems to be the e xamination of our relationship with nature. Will focusing on the elements offer a reprieve? Can it take us to a dark place? According to the work in this exhibition\, the answer is yes. It is a subject that contains multit udes.

White Hous e\n\nMeals & Reception Provided\n\nBlack critical thought reconfigures the inherited categories and lexicons through which the world is made knowabl e. From psychoanalysis to aesthetic theory\, political theology to science \, Black critical thought confronts us endlessly with the question of how disciplinary—as well as non-disciplinary—knowledge is created and repr oduced\, what it enables and makes inevitable\, what it represses and make s impossible. Amid ongoing social and political upheaval\, both our insula ted and protected\, or destabilized and unraveling frameworks call for ren ewed attention: how do we interpret the structures— psychic\, social\, p olitical\, historical\, philosophical— that shape knowledge and experien ce?\n\nThis one-day symposium will feature panel presentations from studen ts and faculty across several disciplines and departments at Cornell and w ill conclude with a keynote conversation with Fred Moten. The symposium pa rticipants will consider how Black critical thought reconfigures central t erms in the humanities and social sciences: the subject\, consciousness\, embodiment\, form\, violence\, critique\, the concept of the world itself. While particularly attuned to engagements with racial slavery\, coloniali sm\, capitalism\, and gender and sexuality\, we do not treat Black Studies as a bounded field or a discrete set of topics. Rather\, the event asks h ow Black critical thought challenges or reshapes our theoretical vocabular ies\, how it reorients our relationship to thinking\, to the human\, to li fe and to death.\n\nThe event is being supported by History of Art and Com parative Literature. Co-sponsors are the departments of Performing and Med ia Arts\, Africana\, Government\, and Literatures in English as well as th e American Studies Program.

However\, in federated reinforcement learning (FRL) for unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) teams in hazardous environments where experience gene ration is severely constrained by safety considerations\, energy limitatio ns\, and mission duration\, this assumption may break. This work introduce s Experience-Constrained Hierarchical Federated Reinforcement Learning (EC -HFRL)\, a framework in which clusters act as federated learning agents\, while multiple intra-cluster learners represent parallel learning resource s that reuse a shared experience pool. We show that increasing participati on does not necessarily improve learning performance. Instead\, learning p erformance is strongly associated with experience reuse strategy and the d ominance of key analytically identified gradient transition experiences wi thin a cluster. In particular\, minibatch size primarily determines effect ive replay exposure\, while higher intra-cluster participation increases r euse level. Empirical results demonstrate that the performance regimes are strongly associated with the structure of the learning signal\, rather th an federated aggregation effects\, clarifying the limited and secondary ro le of learner participation in experience-constrained FRL.\n \n\nBio: Simo n Khan is a research computer scientist at the Air Force Research Laborato ry (AFRL) in Rome\, New York\, where his research centers on artificial in telligence for autonomous decision systems.

This seminar is co-sponsored with CSI.\n\nOver the past two decades\, parenthood in the United States has become increasingly del ayed\, optional\, and diverse\, suggesting that it is undergoing a process of deinstitutionalization similar to\, but distinct from\, marriage. This talk explores this possibility through a review of the regulative\, norma tive\, and cultural-cognitive pillars of parenthood\, as well as a novel s urvey experiment designed to assess the strength of contemporary fertility norms. Whereas institutionalization would imply a prescriptive and uncond itional norm characterized by high intensity and broad consensus\, the sur vey experiment reveals a norm that is proscriptive or bipolar\, conditiona l\, of moderate intensity\, and characterized by low consensus\, providing evidence consistent with the deinstitutionalization of parenthood.

Although it has undergone o ver a century of investigations\, much of the city’s urban social organi zation has come into focus over only the last few decades and major questi ons remain unresolved concerning its political economy and system of gover nance. In this presentation I draw from my own research at four parts of t he city—the Moon Pyramid\, Tlajinga district\, Plaza of the Columns\, an d Great Compound—and synthesize work of other colleagues to provide a pe rspective on Teotihuacan’s unique apartment living\, modular social orga nization\, and mix of commercial and institutional economies.\n\nDavid Car ballo is Professor of Anthropology\, Archaeology\, and Latin American Stud ies at Boston University. He earned his BA in Political Science from Colga te University (1995) and his PhD in Anthropology from UCLA (2005). Carball o specializes in the archaeology of Latin America\, especially central Mex ico\, but has also conducted research in Honduras\, Belize\, Peru\, and th e US\, with topical interests in households\, urbanism\, religion\, social inequality\, and working with contemporary communities in understanding a ncient ones. Current investigations focus on Teotihuacan’s Tlajinga dist rict\, a cluster of non-elite neighborhoods on the periphery of the city\, and the Great Compound\, hypothesized to have served as its central marke tplace or as an administrative complex. Recent books include Urbanization and Religion in Ancient Central Mexico (2016)\, Teotihuacan: The World Bey ond the City (ed.\, 2020)\, Collision of Worlds: A Deep History of the Fal l of Aztec Mexico and the Forging of New Spain (2020)\, Collective Action and the Reframing of Early Mesoamerica (2024)\, and Teotihuacan: A Social History of a Sacred City (2027).\n\nCo-sponsored by Cornell Institute of A rchaeology & Material Studies and Latin American and Caribbean Studies.

Kuhlman Foundation\, Inc. is a non-profit entity established by the estate of Barbara L. Kuhlman. Ms. Kuhlman\, a college professor\, and life-long supporter of fiber arts achieved world-renowned status as a collector\, lecturer\, and author in her field. The Foundation continues her dedication to fiber arts and closely related fields with ph ilanthropic sponsorships\, grants\, and student scholarships.\n\nThe 2026 Barbara L. Kuhlman Scholars’ Group Exhibition showcases unique garments\ , wearable art\, and textile interpretations of the theme\, Elemental. Fiv e students in the Department of Human Centered Design were awarded Kuhlman scholarships in December 2025. Each scholar conducted design research\, f ocusing on the stories they wanted to tell and the techniques they wanted to explore from concept development to execution. The theme Elemental was chosen to reflect upon the power of nature. Each student approached elemen tal from a different perspective and yet one commonality seems to be the e xamination of our relationship with nature. Will focusing on the elements offer a reprieve? Can it take us to a dark place? According to the work in this exhibition\, the answer is yes. It is a subject that contains multit udes. We hope you enjoy seeing the creative journeys this year's Kuhlman S cholars took.

They are embedded in growing \, resource-limited cells whose physiology changes over time and across en vironments. This coupling between circuit function and host dynamics creat es both challenges and opportunities for biological design.\n\nIn this sem inar\, I will discuss my group’s efforts to understand and control synth etic gene circuits as multiscale dynamical systems. I will first describe a growth-coupled modeling framework that explains emergent circuit behavio rs in batch culture by linking molecular regulation\, resource allocation\ , and population growth. I will then present our development of an optogen etic feedback-control platform that enables real-time regulation of gene e xpression in living cultures. Together\, these studies show how mechanisti c modeling and experimental control can be integrated to close the loop on synthetic biology.\n\nwill conclude by discussing how this framework can be extended toward dynamic biomanufacturing\, robust non-model microbial c hassis\, and programmable living therapeutics\, where precise control over cellular behavior is essential for both performance and safety.\n \n\nBio : Chelsea Hu\, Ph.D. ’18\, is an assistant professor of chemical enginee ring at Texas A&M University. She received her Ph.D. in chemical and biomo lecular engineering from Cornell University and completed postdoctoral tra ining at California Institute of Technology. Her research sits at the inte rface of synthetic biology\, systems engineering\, and dynamical control\, with a focus on building quantitative frameworks and experimental platfor ms to model\, measure\, and control living systems. Her group develops mul tiscale models of gene circuit dynamics\, optogenetic feedback-control pla tforms\, and engineered microbial systems for applications in biomanufactu ring and living therapeutics.

Yet robot learning still relies largely on scarce demonstration s collected through teleoperation. Can robots instead inherit physical int elligence from the rich experience people generate every day? The challeng e is not merely to copy human motion\, but to extract knowledge that a dif ferent body can use. I will present three lines of work toward this goal: EgoScale and CHORD\, which explore scalable learning for dexterous manipul ation\; EgoWAM\, which learns transferable physical dynamics through world action modeling\; and WARP\, which transfers whole-body human motion and visuomotor skills to mobile manipulators and humanoids. Together\, these p rojects ask what knowledge about physical intelligence is shared across em bodiments\, and what representations and transformations make that knowled ge usable by a machine.\n\n \n\nBIO\n\nDanfei Xu is an Assistant Professor in the School of Interactive Computing at Georgia Tech\, where he directs the Robot Learning and Reasoning Lab\, and a Research Scientist at NVIDIA .

It was originally studied in 3D semiconductors and then c ontinued in 2D van der Waals (vdW) crystals. In this talk\, I will start w ith the large-scale processes for generating 2D crystalline semiconductor films and superlattices that could be used to fabricate atomically thin in tegrated circuits. Then we will discuss how we use these 2D materials to r ealize non-electronic\, “magical” 2D transport phenomena\, observed fr om phonons\, photons\, and mass. These new approaches could empower the de velopment of 2D phononics\, 2D photonics\, and 2D mechanics. In the final portion\, we will discuss how we synthesize and integrate molecular 2D cry stals to realize magical photonic and electronic properties. For example\, we recently discovered room-temperature\, switchable charge localization in high-quality hybrid molecule based transistors. We will end with a brie f discussion about a molecule-based quantum solid platform for bottom-up d esign and control of optoelectronic and correlated electronic properties.\ n\n \n\n*This event is supported by\, and is part of\, the Albrecht Lectur e Series LAST-MODIFIED:20260916T002152Z LOCATION:Baker Lab\, 119 URL:https://events.cornell.edu/event/ccb-seminar-jiwoong-park-uchicago?utm _source=caldiscovery&utm_medium=ics&utm_campaign=ithaca-ny X-SOURCE-NAME:Cornell Calendar X-SOURCE-URL:https://events.cornell.edu END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT SUMMARY:Mindful by Nature: The Inner Work of Being Outdoors DTSTART:20261005T203000Z DTEND:20261005T220000Z DTSTAMP:20260908T000131Z UID:tag:localist.com\,2008:EventInstance_53913955973052 CATEGORIES:literary,outdoors,wellness DESCRIPTION:Join us for an inspired offering of story\, reflection\, and c onnection as authors and environmental educators Tim Drake and Jason Hamil ton share insights from their book Mindful by Nature: The Inner Work of Be ing Outdoors which explores the relationship between nature and mindfulnes s.

Kuhlman Foundation\, Inc. is a non-profit entity established by the estate of Barbara L. Kuhlman. Ms. Kuhlman\, a college professor\, and life-long supporter of fiber arts achieved world-renowned status as a collector\, lecturer\, and author in her field. The Foundation continues her dedication to fiber arts and closely related fields with ph ilanthropic sponsorships\, grants\, and student scholarships.\n\nThe 2026 Barbara L. Kuhlman Scholars’ Group Exhibition showcases unique garments\ , wearable art\, and textile interpretations of the theme\, Elemental. Fiv e students in the Department of Human Centered Design were awarded Kuhlman scholarships in December 2025. Each scholar conducted design research\, f ocusing on the stories they wanted to tell and the techniques they wanted to explore from concept development to execution. The theme Elemental was chosen to reflect upon the power of nature. Each student approached elemen tal from a different perspective and yet one commonality seems to be the e xamination of our relationship with nature. Will focusing on the elements offer a reprieve? Can it take us to a dark place? According to the work in this exhibition\, the answer is yes. It is a subject that contains multit udes. We hope you enjoy seeing the creative journeys this year's Kuhlman S cholars took.

Beginn ing in the 1970s\, Peruvian poetry embraced the city and explored the poss ibilities of colloquial language to represent the experiences and aspirati ons of a rapidly expanding urban population. During the economic and polit ical crises of the 1980s and 1990s\, these representations became increasi ngly marked by violence\, instability\, and social fragmentation. In the n eoliberal era\, Lima emerges as a city shaped by market logic and its cont radictions. Drawing on Walter Benjamin’s concept of the flâneur\, this presentation argues that contemporary poetry reimagines Lima as a space wh ere political critique and poetic resistance converge.\n\n \n\nCarlos Vill acorta Gonzáles is a writer and Professor of Latin American Literature at the University of Maine.

In s uch settings\, actions both impact the system state and determine what inf ormation about it is observed. Accounting for this dual role is crucial fo r designing reliable algorithms for learning and control\, for application s ranging from robotics to personalized recommendation systems. In this ta lk\, I will discuss recent work in the setting of partially observed dynam ical systems with linear state transitions and bilinear observations. Insp ired by the rich line of work on learning and control for linear systems\, our goal is to understand how much (and which) data is necessary for reli able decision-making.\n\nFirst\, I will discuss learning from observations when the dynamics are unknown and provide finite data error bounds and a sample complexity analysis for inputs chosen according to a simple random design. Second\, we will consider the optimal control problem with the obj ective of minimizing a quadratic cost. Despite the similarity to standard linear quadratic Gaussian (LQG) control\, neither does the separation prin ciple (SP) hold\, nor is the optimal policy affine in the estimated state. Under certain conditions\, the SP-based controller locally maximizes the cost instead of minimizing it\, and instability can result from a loss of observability. By accounting for how the actions impact state estimation\, I will introduce an MPC controller based on receding horizon planning in the belief space. I will conclude with a discussion of open questions on c ontrol design and end-to-end guarantees.\n\nBased on joint work with Yahya Sattar\, Sunmook Choi\, Yassir Jedra\, Leo Maynard-Zhang\, and Maryam Faz el.\n \n\nBio: Sarah Dean is an assistant professor of computer science at Cornell University.

During the second part of the session\, you will engage in indivi dual or small group work\, evaluating your progress so far and determining what\, if any\, changes they need to make. We will be there as your accou ntability partner and will guide you as needed.\n\nWho is leading this? Fl orencia Ardon\, Lecturer and Neurodivergent Student Support Program Manage r at the Learning Strategies Center. We will also host guest speakers for certain topics as well as student staff supporting you during each session .\n\n \n\nBy attending WASS\, you will: \n\nCreate attainable goals for th e semester and a plan to achieve them\, using different active learning te chniques\, as well as effective organization and planning skills\, and met acognitive reflection.You will start implementing your plan\, with support from Cornell staff with expertise in those areas.Throughout the semester\ , evaluate strategies and techniques used as well as your own mindset\, im plementing modifications as needed.At the end of the term\, evaluate the s emester as a whole and determine strategies to use and skills to hone for the next term.Please register: https://forms.gle/eKmqiFunKB9VcfA89 LAST-MODIFIED:20260912T000340Z LOCATION:Warren Hall\, B50 URL:https://events.cornell.edu/event/weekly-accountability-support-session s-wass?utm_source=caldiscovery&utm_medium=ics&utm_campaign=ithaca-ny X-SOURCE-NAME:Cornell Calendar X-SOURCE-URL:https://events.cornell.edu END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT SUMMARY:Poetics of Life and Death: Short Films from Syria\, Lebanon\, and Palestine DTSTART:20261006T210000Z DTEND:20261006T220000Z DTSTAMP:20260917T182716Z UID:tag:localist.com\,2008:EventInstance_53994369402638 CATEGORIES:film DESCRIPTION:A selection of short films screened at the Festival de Cine Li banés 2026 in Mexico City.

Kuhlman Foundation\, Inc. is a non-profit entity established by the estate of Barbara L. Kuhlman. Ms. Kuhlman\, a college professor\, and life-long supporter of fiber arts achieved world-renowned status as a collector\, lecturer\, and author in her field. The Foundation continues her dedication to fiber arts and closely related fields with ph ilanthropic sponsorships\, grants\, and student scholarships.\n\nThe 2026 Barbara L. Kuhlman Scholars’ Group Exhibition showcases unique garments\ , wearable art\, and textile interpretations of the theme\, Elemental. Fiv e students in the Department of Human Centered Design were awarded Kuhlman scholarships in December 2025. Each scholar conducted design research\, f ocusing on the stories they wanted to tell and the techniques they wanted to explore from concept development to execution. The theme Elemental was chosen to reflect upon the power of nature. Each student approached elemen tal from a different perspective and yet one commonality seems to be the e xamination of our relationship with nature. Will focusing on the elements offer a reprieve? Can it take us to a dark place? According to the work in this exhibition\, the answer is yes. It is a subject that contains multit udes. We hope you enjoy seeing the creative journeys this year's Kuhlman S cholars took.

Kuhlman Foundation\, Inc. is a non-profit entity established by the estate of Barbara L. Kuhlman. Ms. Kuhlman\, a college professor\, and life-long supporter of fiber arts achieved world-renowned status as a collector\, lecturer\, and author in her field. The Foundation continues her dedication to fiber arts and closely related fields with ph ilanthropic sponsorships\, grants\, and student scholarships.\n\nThe 2026 Barbara L. Kuhlman Scholars’ Group Exhibition showcases unique garments\ , wearable art\, and textile interpretations of the theme\, Elemental. Fiv e students in the Department of Human Centered Design were awarded Kuhlman scholarships in December 2025. Each scholar conducted design research\, f ocusing on the stories they wanted to tell and the techniques they wanted to explore from concept development to execution. The theme Elemental was chosen to reflect upon the power of nature. Each student approached elemen tal from a different perspective and yet one commonality seems to be the e xamination of our relationship with nature. Will focusing on the elements offer a reprieve? Can it take us to a dark place? According to the work in this exhibition\, the answer is yes. It is a subject that contains multit udes. We hope you enjoy seeing the creative journeys this year's Kuhlman S cholars took.

L unch will be served. For questions\, contact seap@cornell.edu.\n\nAbstract \n\nHow does monastic authority become visible? This presentation examines the aesthetics of Thai Buddhist monasticism\, focusing on the sensory dim ensions through which appearance\, bodily presence\, comportment\, and aff ect generate perceptions of sacred authority. Drawing on ethnographic rese arch\, media analysis\, and twenty focus groups with Thai Buddhist laypeop le\, I compare two contrasting forms of monastic masculinity: the restrain ed\, ascetic authority of forest monks and the softer\, more intimate and ornamental charisma of kruba monks of the northern region. These contrasti ng “monastic idols” demonstrate that masculinity within the Thai sangh a is neither singular nor fixed but continually produced through embodied and aesthetic practices.\n\nThe second part turns to female monastic pract ice to ask how sacred authority is assembled in the absence of institution al recognition. For fully ordained women and precept nuns\, bodily discipl ine\, religious spaces\, teaching\, community care\, and mediated public p resence work together to make sacredness perceptible to lay supporters. Ra ther than conforming to or rejecting gendered expectations\, female monast ics construct legitimacy through an assemblage of aesthetic and religious practices. Comparing these forms of monastic authority reveals how aesthet ics both reproduce and reconfigure gender\, legitimacy\, and sacred presen ce in contemporary Thai Buddhism.\n\nAbout the Speaker\n\nBrooke Schedneck is Associate Professor of Religious Studies at Rhodes College. Her resear ch focuses on contemporary Buddhism\, particularly in Thailand\, where she has spent years teaching and conducting fieldwork.

Kuhlman Foundation\, Inc. is a non-profit entity established by the estate of Barbara L. Kuhlman. Ms. Kuhlman\, a college professor\, and life-long supporter of fiber arts achieved world-renowned status as a collector\, lecturer\, and author in her field. The Foundation continues her dedication to fiber arts and closely related fields with ph ilanthropic sponsorships\, grants\, and student scholarships.\n\nThe 2026 Barbara L. Kuhlman Scholars’ Group Exhibition showcases unique garments\ , wearable art\, and textile interpretations of the theme\, Elemental. Fiv e students in the Department of Human Centered Design were awarded Kuhlman scholarships in December 2025. Each scholar conducted design research\, f ocusing on the stories they wanted to tell and the techniques they wanted to explore from concept development to execution. The theme Elemental was chosen to reflect upon the power of nature. Each student approached elemen tal from a different perspective and yet one commonality seems to be the e xamination of our relationship with nature. Will focusing on the elements offer a reprieve? Can it take us to a dark place? According to the work in this exhibition\, the answer is yes. It is a subject that contains multit udes. We hope you enjoy seeing the creative journeys this year's Kuhlman S cholars took.

Kuhlman Foundation\, Inc. is a non-profit entity established by the estate of Barbara L. Kuhlman. Ms. Kuhlman\, a college professor\, and life-long supporter of fiber arts achieved world-renowned status as a collector\, lecturer\, and author in her field. The Foundation continues her dedication to fiber arts and closely related fields with ph ilanthropic sponsorships\, grants\, and student scholarships.\n\nThe 2026 Barbara L. Kuhlman Scholars’ Group Exhibition showcases unique garments\ , wearable art\, and textile interpretations of the theme\, Elemental. Fiv e students in the Department of Human Centered Design were awarded Kuhlman scholarships in December 2025. Each scholar conducted design research\, f ocusing on the stories they wanted to tell and the techniques they wanted to explore from concept development to execution. The theme Elemental was chosen to reflect upon the power of nature. Each student approached elemen tal from a different perspective and yet one commonality seems to be the e xamination of our relationship with nature. Will focusing on the elements offer a reprieve? Can it take us to a dark place? According to the work in this exhibition\, the answer is yes. It is a subject that contains multit udes. We hope you enjoy seeing the creative journeys this year's Kuhlman S cholars took.

Kuhlman Foundation\, Inc. is a non-profit entity established by the estate of Barbara L. Kuhlman. Ms. Kuhlman\, a college professor\, and life-long supporter of fiber arts achieved world-renowned status as a collector\, lecturer\, and author in her field. The Foundation continues her dedication to fiber arts and closely related fields with ph ilanthropic sponsorships\, grants\, and student scholarships.\n\nThe 2026 Barbara L. Kuhlman Scholars’ Group Exhibition showcases unique garments\ , wearable art\, and textile interpretations of the theme\, Elemental. Fiv e students in the Department of Human Centered Design were awarded Kuhlman scholarships in December 2025. Each scholar conducted design research\, f ocusing on the stories they wanted to tell and the techniques they wanted to explore from concept development to execution. The theme Elemental was chosen to reflect upon the power of nature. Each student approached elemen tal from a different perspective and yet one commonality seems to be the e xamination of our relationship with nature. Will focusing on the elements offer a reprieve? Can it take us to a dark place? According to the work in this exhibition\, the answer is yes. It is a subject that contains multit udes. We hope you enjoy seeing the creative journeys this year's Kuhlman S cholars took.

Kuhlman Foundation\, Inc. is a non-profit entity established by the estate of Barbara L. Kuhlman. Ms. Kuhlman\, a college professor\, and life-long supporter of fiber arts achieved world-renowned status as a collector\, lecturer\, and author in her field. The Foundation continues her dedication to fiber arts and closely related fields with ph ilanthropic sponsorships\, grants\, and student scholarships.\n\nThe 2026 Barbara L. Kuhlman Scholars’ Group Exhibition showcases unique garments\ , wearable art\, and textile interpretations of the theme\, Elemental. Fiv e students in the Department of Human Centered Design were awarded Kuhlman scholarships in December 2025. Each scholar conducted design research\, f ocusing on the stories they wanted to tell and the techniques they wanted to explore from concept development to execution. The theme Elemental was chosen to reflect upon the power of nature. Each student approached elemen tal from a different perspective and yet one commonality seems to be the e xamination of our relationship with nature. Will focusing on the elements offer a reprieve? Can it take us to a dark place? According to the work in this exhibition\, the answer is yes. It is a subject that contains multit udes. We hope you enjoy seeing the creative journeys this year's Kuhlman S cholars took.

In Keeping Workers Off the Ballot\, Nichol as Carnes and Noam Lupu show that this disparity is not because working-cl ass people are less appealing to voters\, less interested in running\, or less qualified. And the problem isn’t limited to certain countries\, cam paign finance regimes\, or electoral systems. Carnes and Lupu argue that i t is the nature of elections themselves that keep workers off our ballots and out of office.\n\nCarnes and Lupu point to two inherent features of el ections that discourage working-class candidates throughout democracies ac ross the globe. Running for office naturally involves taking on significan t personal burdens\n\n—giving up time\, energy\, and certainty about the future—that are prohibitive to people in the lower-wage and more precar ious manual labor\, service industry\, and clerical jobs that make up the working class. Party gatekeepers in turn have strategic incentives to favo r potential candidates who can more easily meet the demands of running\, a nd as a result\, they pass over qualified working-class people. Carnes and Lupu argue that workers won’t have a seat at the table in our political system unless parties form institutionalized partnerships with strong wor ker organizations or democracies embrace alternative forms of leadership s election that directly harness the perspectives of ordinary citizens.

Each scholar conducted design research\, f ocusing on the stories they wanted to tell and the techniques they wanted to explore from concept development to execution. The theme Elemental was chosen to reflect upon the power of nature. Each student approached elemen tal from a different perspective and yet one commonality seems to be the e xamination of our relationship with nature. Will focusing on the elements offer a reprieve? Can it take us to a dark place? According to the work in this exhibition\, the answer is yes. It is a subject that contains multit udes. We hope you enjoy seeing the creative journeys this year's Kuhlman S cholars took.

To t ackle this pressing policy problem\, this project delves into the strategi c behavior of states in alliances with nuclear security guarantors or patr ons. It asks two main questions. First\, how do nuclear umbrellas produce risky security outcomes – namely\, moral hazard – that can potentially entrap nuclear patrons into military engagement with adversaries? And sec ond\, how can alliances be designed to prevent these risky outcomes and yi eld positive dividends for the international system? To explore these ques tions\, we pursue three lines of inquiry. First\, we develop a new theoret ical framework that explores the duality of nuclear umbrellas – their be nefits and burdens. Second\, we employ a series of large-n statistical tes ts exploring the United States as patron and its relationship with various treaty allies and their adversaries over time. Third\, we examine this lo gic and mechanisms through a series of in-depth case studies\, including T aiwan\, the United Kingdom\, and NATO. The manuscript concludes with valua ble insights and recommendations for policymakers focused on grand strateg y and the broad network of U.S. alliances.\n\nAbout the speaker\n\nRupal N .

For questions\, contact seap@cornell.edu.\n\nAbstract\n\nAround the turn of the twentieth century\, Burma was once a prominent location in gl obal histories of oil. The early oil industry in Burma attracted a substan tial amount of global capital\, which led to significant increase in oil p roperty and a surge in litigation. Focusing on the early oil industry in c olonial Burma from the 1880s to the 1940s\, I examine the social life of g lobal capitalism on the ground as it unfolded in the Burmese oilfields and argue that capitalism should be understood as a temporal orientation rath er than solely a material system of production or circulation. In my recon struction of the everyday economic life of ordinary people in the oilfield s\, I argue that capitalism took hold through a “future-oriented capital ist vision”: an anticipatory way of relating to value that emphasized sp eculative potential and imagined accumulation. Foregrounding lived experie nce and future-oriented consciousness\, this project challenges diffusioni st and materialist accounts of capitalism in Asia. It shows how ordinary a ctors shaped the making of global capitalism on the ground\, and it shows how interior Southeast Asia was deeply embedded in global circuits of capi tal\, law\, and expertise.\n\nAbout the Speaker\n\nChao Ren is a Visiting Assistant Professor of History at Hamilton College. He received his PhD fr om the University of Michigan\, Ann Arbor in 2025. He works on the histori es of capitalism\, law\, and the environment of South and Southeast Asia i n global contexts.

The second\, To Save the Soul of America: Martin Luther King and a New Public Philosophy\, aims to move beyond King’s iconic activism to recov er his philosophical writings for an age of disorientation and despair. Th e book explores how King’s philosophy can conceptually and normatively s harpen professional philosophy and contemporary political struggles regard ing questions of peace\, justice\, dignity\, and democracy.\n\nTerry has p ublished work in Modern Intellectual History\, Political Theory\, The New York Review of Books\, Time\, The Los Angeles Review of Books\, Boston Rev iew\, Dissent\, The Point\, and New Labor Forum and been interviewed by Th e Ezra Klein Show\, Vox\, the New York Times\, and other media outlets. He currently serves on the boards of Boston Review\, Embrace Boston\, and NO MOS\, the American Society for Political and Legal Philosophy.\n\nAbout th e book\n\nA landmark reinterpretation of the civil rights movement that ch allenges reductive heroic narratives of the 1950s and 1960s and invigorate s new debates and possibilities for the future of the struggle for liberat ion.\n\nWe are all familiar with the romantic vision of the civil rights m ovement: a moment when heroic African Americans and their allies triumphed over racial oppression through courageous protest\, forging a new consens us in American life and law. But what are the effects of this celebratory storytelling? What happens when a living revolt against injustice becomes an embalmed museum piece?\n\nIn this innovative work\, Brandon Terry devel ops a novel theory of interpretation to show how competing accounts of the civil rights movement circulate through politics and political philosophy . The dominant narrative is romantic. This “arc of justice” narrative is found in popular histories\, the speeches of Barack Obama\, and even th e writings of the liberal philosopher John Rawls. Despite being public ort hodoxy\, these romantic visions are exhausted and unpersuasive on their ow n terms. The breakdown of the authority of this history of justice has cre ated space for a rival ironic mode\, embodied in the political ideas of Af ropessimism. While offering a sympathetic critique\, Terry ultimately find s Afropessimist thought self-undermining and unworkable.\n\nInstead\, he a rgues\, the civil rights movement is best understood in tragic terms. By c hallenging the attachment to triumphant pasts\, Terry demonstrates that tr agedy exemplifies what the civil rights movement has been and can still be . Provocative and original\, Shattered Dreams\, Infinite Hope offers an op timistic political vision without naïveté\, to train our judgment and re silience in the face of reasonable despair.

From the industrial transformation of landscapes in the early 1 9th century that ultimately led to the creation of the Environmental Prote ction Agency in the 20th\, to new laws around water breaks on increasingly hot summer days\, this exhibit also attempts to show how government polic ies have evolved over time to protect workers.\n\nThe exhibit will also hi ghlight the work of Theodore Kheel—regarded as America's most distinguis hed mediator—who was a staunch advocate for sustainability and environme ntal protection during the first Earth Summit in 1992 and in other labor u nion-led environmental campaigns. Featuring evolving clothing needs as wor kers face unprecedented temperatures in their work\, the exhibit is a coll aboration between the Cornell Fashion + Textile Collection (CF+TC) and Cor nell University Library's Kheel Center\, located in Catherwood Library.\n\ nWeathering the Storm is part of a series of exhibits titled From the Brin k: Contributions to a Sustainable Future from across Cornell\, hosted by d ifferent unit libraries across Cornell University Library in close partner ship with other departments and groups on campus. From the Brink showcases collections\, research support\, and collaborative efforts across Cornell and illuminates ways of addressing issues of critical\, global importance . This series of exhibits aims to stimulate conversations about the threat of environmental and cultural loss and its implications\, while also offe ring insights about positive developments and constructive steps toward a healthier future for our planet and our communities.\n\nWeathering the Sto rm: The Role of Labor in an Era of Climate Change is on display from Octob er 8\, 2026 through August 15\, 2027 during all hours Catherwood Library i s open.

Kuhlman Foundation\, Inc. is a non-profit entity established by the estate of Barbara L. Kuhlman. Ms. Kuhlman\, a college professor\, and life-long supporter of fiber arts achieved world-renowned status as a collector\, lecturer\, and author in her field. The Foundation continues her dedication to fiber arts and closely related fields with ph ilanthropic sponsorships\, grants\, and student scholarships.\n\nThe 2026 Barbara L. Kuhlman Scholars’ Group Exhibition showcases unique garments\ , wearable art\, and textile interpretations of the theme\, Elemental. Fiv e students in the Department of Human Centered Design were awarded Kuhlman scholarships in December 2025. Each scholar conducted design research\, f ocusing on the stories they wanted to tell and the techniques they wanted to explore from concept development to execution. The theme Elemental was chosen to reflect upon the power of nature. Each student approached elemen tal from a different perspective and yet one commonality seems to be the e xamination of our relationship with nature. Will focusing on the elements offer a reprieve? Can it take us to a dark place? According to the work in this exhibition\, the answer is yes. It is a subject that contains multit udes. We hope you enjoy seeing the creative journeys this year's Kuhlman S cholars took.

Because these concepts are so intuitive\, I am convinced that geometry wi ll continue to play a major role in computer vision. In particular\, geome tric understanding can help align models to human preferences which is esp ecially relevant in this era of reasoning frontier models. In this talk\, I will first present our research on leveraging concepts from algebraic to pology to improve image segmentation.

Aft er having traveled together in China and across the high seas for several months\, the group gathered in a lodge to bid farewell to the man responsi ble for bringing them together. At the emotional banquet\, poems were comp osed on behalf of the monk Enchin 円珍 (814–891)\, who later became he ad of the Tiantai/Tendai 天台 school of Buddhism in Japan. Enchin’s hi gh status and importance in the history of Japanese Buddhism allowed for t he preservation of eighteen of these poems in a document titled Tōjin sō betsushi narabini sekitoku 唐人送別詩幷尺牘. The poems\, mostly wr itten by merchants from southern China\, provide some distinctive insights into Tang society through their engagement with the themes of Buddhism\, friendship\, scenic beauty\, and even politics. They also constitute some of the earliest extant writings by merchants in East Asia. In examining th ese compositions\, we will see that although many follow contemporary Chin ese trends and conventions\, they also offer rare glimpses into the medioc re and imperfect Tang works that are otherwise lost to posterity. This col loquium will welcome a range of perspectives on the poems\, focusing not o nly on how they align with the poetry of the period\, but also on the ways in which they might be perceived as subpar\, flawed\, or below the high s tandards set by the tiny fraction of esteemed Tang poems preserved in the present day. Of equal importance will be consideration of what these poems can tell us about their writers\, local Chinese society\, religious excha nge\, and\, broadly speaking\, the world in which they were produced.\n\nA bout Cornell Classical Chinese Colloquium\nThe group meets monthly during the semester to explore a variety of classical Chinese texts and styles. O ther premodern texts linked to classical Chinese in Japanese\, Korean\, an d Vietnamese have also been explored. Presentations include works from the earliest times to the 20th century. Workshop sessions are led by local\, national\, and international scholars. Participants with any level of clas sical Chinese experience are welcome to attend. \no At each session\, a presenter guides the group in a reading of a classical Chinese text.

Simply put\, path analysis is a series of linear regressions. Hence\, the same assumptions that we have for linear regression hold for path analysis. Path models are often accompanied with a path diagram\, so the reader and researcher alike can visualize the com plex system of relations.\n\nMediation is something we can test for in a p ath model. Mediation occurs when a variable X affects a variable Y partly or completely through an intermediate variable M. Although both path analy sis and mediation analysis are commonly used in the social sciences\, they have become popular tools in other fields.\n\nIn this workshop\, we will focus on the terminology and notation commonly used in path analysis and s tructural equation models\; understand how to determine if a model is unde r-identified\, just-identified\, or over-identified\; as well as interpret and estimate direct\, indirect\, and total effects.\n\nThe workshop will include a hands-on component using the R statistical software package.

Scholarship on colonial Islam has large ly told a story of resistance: European empire as a provocation\, and Pan- Islam as the insurgent reaction. By contrast\, this talk shows how the Raj ’s formal and informal empire in Asia and Africa\, together with its mat erial surrogate of free market capitalism\, created skeins of connectivity and unity among transcolonial Muslims. Colonial Sharia\, first codified i n Bengal and then exported around the ocean’s rim\, juridically bound an d defined Muslim identity from South Asia to the Straits Settlements\, the Swahili Coast\, and Arabia. Meanwhile\, the growth of colonial-era market relations drew far-flung coreligionists into shared\, if unequal\, circui ts of exchange\, triggering mass labor migrations in and among Muslim soci eties\, propelling steamship journeys to Mecca\, and weaving liens of debt and obligation throughout the Islamic world. The talk argues that the Raj ’s oceanic empire crucially shaped modern Muslim projects of worldmaking until the First World War\, whether by enabling connections of sociabilit y among Cairine religious reformers and Bombay merchant-financiers\, or by inciting discourses of economic self-sufficiency among Indian and Turkish Pan-Islamists. However\, the racialized orders of colonial governance\, c oupled with the immanent inequities of capitalism\, ultimately also forecl osed the constitutional and anticolonial possibilities that many Muslims a cross the Indian Ocean strove to imagine. \n\nRishad Choudhury is a histor ian of modern South Asia and the Indian Ocean\, from ca. 1750 to decoloniz ation. His work centers on how power is exercised in and on Muslim societi es\, and how political genealogies are shaped by regional and global histo ries of empire and colonialism. Choudhury’s first book\, Hajj across Emp ires: Pilgrimage and Political Culture after the Mughals\, 1739-1857 (Camb ridge\, 2024)\, examined how South Asian Muslims navigated the revolutiona ry age between Mughal imperial decline and British colonial consolidation by forging transregional ties through pilgrimage to Arabia and the Ottoman world. For a preview of the book’s themes\, you can read a short piece I wrote for the Cambridge University Press blog. Rishad was formerly an Ac ademy Scholar at the Harvard Academy for International and Area Studies\, a Kluge Fellow at the Library of Congress\, and a Member of the School of Historical Studies at the Institute for Advanced Study. Rishad is now work ing on two new books. The first\, Mughal Enlightenment: The Command of Sub jects in Colonial Thought\, reconsiders how Persian – a classical lingua franca of India and the Indian Ocean – transformed under colonial rule. It reveals how Mughal munshis (scribal workers) engaged with European sou rces and actors to coproduce novel vernacular epistemologies of science\, art\, narratology\, medicine\, ethnography\, and political economy. The se cond is a history of the Nawabs of Dacca\, a merchant clan turned landed d ynasty that used a colonial peerage to reinvent themselves as neo-Mughal n obles loyal to the Victorian Raj. The book reconstructs the family’s piv otal role in broader currents of Muslim communal mobilization in modern So uth Asia.

Yet for mu ch of the world\, the risks of AI are far more immediate: misrepresentatio n\, exclusion\, stereotyping\, and the erosion of dignity. These harms dis proportionately affect communities that are already marginalized — inclu ding people with disabilities and those in non-Western cultural contexts.\ n\nIn this talk\, I argue that current approaches to AI safety are limited not only in scope but in standpoint. When safety is defined from dominant social and geographic positions\, the harms that matter most to marginali zed communities become invisible\, anecdotal\, or secondary. Drawing on ca se studies from my work with people with disabilities in the US and India\ , I show how AI systems both promise expanded access and simultaneously re produce cultural bias\, ableism\, and structural inequities. I conclude by outlining pathways toward a globally grounded approach to AI safety — o ne that treats representation\, cultural context\, and participatory gover nance as core safety challenges rather than peripheral concerns.\n\nBio: D r. Aditya Vashistha is an Assistant Professor of Information Science at Co rnell University\, where he directs the Cornell Global AI Initiative\, a u niversity-wide effort to integrate global perspectives into the design\, e valuation\, and governance of AI. His research focuses on building and stu dying AI systems that advance equity for historically marginalized communi ties\, particularly across South Asia and Sub-Saharan Africa. His work has led to widely deployed systems impacting over 300\,000 people and has rec eived multiple best paper awards. He is the recipient of the Facebook Acce ss Innovation Prize\, Google and Microsoft Faculty Awards\, and Cornell's President's and Provost's Faculty Award for Excellence in Research\, Teach ing\, and Service.

Why has it been so difficult to break this habit? In his new book\, Fredrik Albritton Jonsson suggests that the plan etary emergency has profound historical roots reaching back to the making of the first fossil fuel economy in eighteenth century Britain. Rather tha n look for a single dramatic rupture centered on the steam powered factory system\, Albritton Jonsson uncovers the gradual and multidimensional deve lopment of the first coal economy\, stretching from the deep mine and iron works to the household and the global food system - what he calls the Foss il Ratchet. Albritton Jonsson explores not only the material forces behind the British energy path but also how ideas about fossil fuel energy reori ented politics and society towards a new ideal of growth. Fossil cornucopi anism was the most important legacy of Britain’s early fossil fuel econo my —the idea of a bountiful\, never-ending energy source which still hau nts modern politics and economics.\n\nFredrik Albritton Jonsson is associa te professor of British history and history of science at the University o f Chicago. He is the author of Enlightenment’s Frontier: The Scottish Hi ghlands and the Origins of Environmentalism\, Green Victorians: the Simple Life in John Ruskin's Lake District with Vicky Albritton and Scarcity: A History from the Origins of Capitalism to the Climate Crisis\, with Carl W ennerlind.

I will present a 20-bin analysis of the Master Type Ia Supernova Sample within the flat ΛCDM model\, testing the inferred H₀ e volution using logarithmic and power-law parameterizations. While both for ms behave similarly up to the Cosmic Microwave Background epoch\, they div erge increasingly toward Big Bang Nucleosynthesis and inflationary scales\ , exhibiting qualitatively different high-redshift limits. I will discuss the implications and limitations of these results and future work combinin g Type Ia supernovae with Gamma-Ray Bursts to extend these tests over a su bstantially wider redshift range.

He will cover topics like: (i) h ow the law works (from the perspective of an engineer)\; (ii) careers in l aw\; (iii) unexpected connections among the fields of law\, science\, and engineering\; (iv) some of the challenges facing our legal system at the i ntersection of law and science\; and\, of course\, (v) why an education in chemical engineering really does prepare you for anything. He will also s hare insights from his time in chemical engineering that have carried him over the years\, such as the role of mentorship\, the bedrock of ethical c onduct\, and how serendipity favors the prepared mind.\n\nAfter Cornell\, but before turning to a legal career\, Judge Murphy followed the path of h is mentors at Cornell\, obtaining a Ph.D. in chemical engineering at Calte ch\, where he was an NSF fellow. There\, he worked in the laboratory of Pr ofessor Mark E. Davis on a thesis entitled “Methods for Collection and P rocessing of Gene Expression Data.” He was also chair of Caltech’s Gra duate Review Board\, and obtained a patent on his work\, two experiences t hat got him thinking about the law. From there\, he attended Harvard Law S chool\, where he was editor-in-chief of the Harvard Journal of Law and Tec hnology\, and then served as a clerk for Chief Judge Kimberly A. Moore of the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit. Before being appointed to the court\, Judge Murphy was a partner at the law firm of Baker & Hoste tler in Philadelphia\, where he litigated patent\, copyright\, trademark\, and trade secret disputes. Now\, outside of the courtroom\, Judge Murphy serves on the Committee on Codes of Conduct of the Judicial Conference of the United States and the Subcommittee on Artificial Intelligence. He also teaches at Villanova Law School and Rutgers Law School and is co-author o f the last three editions of the popular law-school casebook Patent Litiga tion & Strategy.

It was an extraordinary movement of hundreds of th ousands of people throughout France and it was not clear whether it repres ented the left or the right or even whether such categories were still rel evant.\n\nI followed this movement\, joining the protests in the urban str eets and then following participants back to the provinces\, from its earl iest stages and have continued to study it and its aftermath. The Yellow V ests were comprised of “ordinary” citizens who were outraged by govern ment policies to raise the gas tax and whose anger quicky morphed into opp osition to the cutbacks in state transportation services\, healthcare and education. The Yellow Vests faced the kind of massive opposition from the police that we have seen on the streets of Minneapolis and elsewhere in th e United States.\n\n Americans might not use the same language\, but the p aper discusses some parallels with the community reactions to ICE raids\, Trump’s gutting of public institutions\, and the skyrocketing cost of es sential items and services.\n\nThis paper analyzes the ways in which grass roots movements have regrouped in new ways to combat growing incursions i n democratic expectations combined with the transformation in class relati ons and the ever-increasing inequality of the current era.\n\n***\n\nAbout the Speaker\n\nIda Susser\, PHD is Distinguished Professor of Anthropolog y at the Graduate Center and Hunter College\, CUNY. Her recent book The Ye llow Vests and the Battle for Democracy: taking to the streets of Paris in the 21st Century (Routledge 2026) focuses on commoning movements and new visions.

Attending all se ssions will make it easier for you to create a study routine in a space th at fosters accountability. \n\nWhat we’ll do: We will first discuss a to pic or attend a short presentation given by Cornell staff with expertise i n different areas\, followed by hands-on practice of skills learned--many times\, you learn about a study method or how to register to request accom modations and intend to put the method into practice or fill out the form\ , only to forget to do it. This way\, you will do it and will have staff f rom the relevant office present to guide you and help you troubleshoot any issues. During the second part of the session\, you will engage in indivi dual or small group work\, evaluating your progress so far and determining what\, if any\, changes they need to make. We will be there as your accou ntability partner and will guide you as needed.\n\nWho is leading this? Fl orencia Ardon\, Lecturer and Neurodivergent Student Support Program Manage r at the Learning Strategies Center. We will also host guest speakers for certain topics as well as student staff supporting you during each session .\n\n \n\nBy attending WASS\, you will: \n\nCreate attainable goals for th e semester and a plan to achieve them\, using different active learning te chniques\, as well as effective organization and planning skills\, and met acognitive reflection.You will start implementing your plan\, with support from Cornell staff with expertise in those areas.Throughout the semester\ , evaluate strategies and techniques used as well as your own mindset\, im plementing modifications as needed.At the end of the term\, evaluate the s emester as a whole and determine strategies to use and skills to hone for the next term.Please register: https://forms.gle/eKmqiFunKB9VcfA89 LAST-MODIFIED:20260912T000340Z LOCATION:Warren Hall\, B50 URL:https://events.cornell.edu/event/weekly-accountability-support-session s-wass?utm_source=caldiscovery&utm_medium=ics&utm_campaign=ithaca-ny X-SOURCE-NAME:Cornell Calendar X-SOURCE-URL:https://events.cornell.edu END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT SUMMARY:Information Session: Laidlaw Leadership & Research Program DTSTART:20261020T210000Z DTEND:20261020T220000Z DTSTAMP:20260918T002615Z UID:tag:localist.com\,2008:EventInstance_53567314754801 CATEGORIES:education DESCRIPTION:The Laidlaw Leadership and Research Program promotes ethical l eadership and international research around the world—starting with the passionate leaders and learners found on campuses like Cornell.

Simply put\, path analysis is a series of linear regressions. Hence\, the same assumptions that we have for linear regression hold for path analysis. Path models are often accompanied with a path diagram\, so the reader and researcher alike can visualize the com plex system of relations.\n\nThis workshop is a continuation of the Introd uction to Path Analysis workshop. This workshop will touch upon the interp retation and estimation of parallel mediation models\, serial mediation mo dels\, moderated mediation models\, and group analyses in path models. Fit indices and modification indices will be discussed as ways of checking an d improving model fit respectively. We will also cover different estimator s and when to use them.\n\nThe workshop will include a hands-on component using the R statistical software package.

This book demonstrates that medi eval Jewish legal thought was forged in dialogue with various and competin g schools of Islamic law. Herman homes in on the central doctrine of post- biblical Judaism: the notion that God had supplemented the written Hebrew Bible with an Oral Torah. Tracing medieval interpretations of this idea fr om Baghdad to Córdoba to Cairo\, three major centers of medieval Jewish l ife\, Herman reveals previously unrecognized commonalities between Jewish and Islamic constructions of religious law. For medieval Jews and Muslims alike\, legal theory was a primary form of religious self-fashioning\, and as such\, it must be understood in light of the cross-cultural discourses in which it was fashioned.\n\nMarc Herman is an assistant professor in th e Department of Humanities at York University who focuses on Jewish and Is lamic intellectual history in the medieval Mediterranean and Judeo-Arabic law. Marc graduated from the University of Pennsylvania and held postdocto ral fellowships at Columbia University\, Fordham University\, Harvard Univ ersity\, Rutgers University\, the University of Michigan\, the University of Pennsylvania\, and Yale Law School. He is the coeditor of Accounting fo r the Commandments in Medieval Judaism: Studies in Law\, Philosophy\, Piet ism\, and Kabbalah (Brill\, 2021) and Worlds of Jewish Law: Premodern Lega l Cultures in the Making (currently under review). His first book\, After Revelation: The Rabbinic Past in the Medieval Islamic World\, was publishe d by the University of Pennsylvania Press in August 2025. Marc’s current project reconstructs the writing\, rewriting\, and transmission history o f Maimonides’s Book of the Commandments.

This talk uses tha t relationship as a way into hacking itself: its different cultures\, hist ories\, and politics. Hacking has never been one thing—phreaks\, free so ftware developers\, the underground\, security researchers\, artist- activ ists—each with their own ethics and histories. The media\, however\, has usually focused on just one group at a time\, and which group got attenti on often depended on the political milieu. At first\, journalists mostly t reated hackers as threats or oddities. Later\, as technology became more w idespread and complex\, journalists began to seek out hackers for their ex pertise. Sometimes reporters approached these experts\, but hackers also m ade themselves visible and available to journalists. They had shared their knowledge for years in zines like 2600 and Phrack\, and groups like the L 0pht and the Chaos Computer Club staged public interventions to force medi a coverage. I will end by discussing what changed after 2010\, when hacker s began doing journalism themselves through leaking and hacking. Newsrooms had to re-work out the ethics of publishing stolen material and of depend ing on sources they were still uneasy about.\n\nAbout the speaker\n\nGabri ella (Biella) Coleman is a full professor in the Department of Anthropolog y at Harvard University and is a faculty associate at the Berkman Center f or Internet and Society.

It captur es sensible temperature excess\, while ignoring both the latent heat burde n of humidity and the thermodynamic efficiency penalties that warmer outdo or conditions impose on cooling systems. As cooling becomes a dominant lin k between weather and grid stress\, that omission increasingly matters. He re\, we introduce efficiency-weighted cooling degree day (eCDD)\, which in corporates compressor performance and the sensible-latent partitioning of cooling load directly into the index. Applied to hourly historical atmosph eric reanalysis data (ERA5) and future climate model projections (CMIP6)\, North America exposes a tug-of-war: temperature and inlet vapor pressure exert opposing controls on cooling efficiency\, sometimes reinforcing and sometimes cancelling\, producing systematic under- and over-estimation of cooling trends by traditional metrics depending on which side dominates. E xtending this globally\, that tension resolves into four distinct thermody namic regimes: moisture-dominated\, drying-dominated\, compound amplificat ion\, and compensating. Weighting for population shows where people actual ly sit within these regimes and mapping that population into an efficiency –load phase space reveals that humanity's collective operating point has drifted toward warmer and more humid conditions over the last 25 years\, a shift driven by demographics rather than climate alone. These trajectori es continue further under future emissions scenarios by 2100. Overall\, we show that cooling efficiency is also governed by climate\, not merely eng ineered into machines.\n \n\nBio: Jake Casselman is a postdoctoral researc her in the Department of Atmospheric Sciences at the University of Hawaiʻ i at Mānoa\, where he works with Christina Karamperidou on the intersecti on of climate variability and building energy systems.

By telling this s tory\, Mundy is describing the origins of a history that has not yet come to pass: the reinvention of modern ethics in the aftermath of Western huma nism.\n\nMundy's work is concerned with the way animal musicality has defi ned modern notions of life and rights for a generation of listeners shaped by ecological crisis.

They w ill share candid personal stories and offer compelling insights about how they conjure resilience to overcome obstacles\, regroup after significant setbacks\, combat imposter syndrome\, and manage through uncertainty. \n\n Lydia Anglin Grant (Cornell ILR ‘18 & UPenn JD/MBA ’23) is an attorney in the Sustainability Practice Group at Kirkland & Ellis\, where she advi ses clients on environmental\, social\, and governance (ESG) matters\, sus tainability strategy\, and regulatory compliance. Lydia’s career has bee n shaped by her willingness to pursue opportunities before she felt fully ready for them and the resilience to keep going when the path was anything but straightforward. While at Cornell\, she founded the Black Ivy Pre-Law Society\, which was featured in Teen Vogue\, interned on Wall Street and in the Obama Administration\; twice lobbied Congress on student federal fi nancial aid policy\; and supported numerous organizations advancing the pr ofessional and leadership development of women and people of color. A Hous ton native and the daughter of Jamaican immigrants\, her journey has taugh t her that resilience means betting on herself when the path ahead is unce rtain and believing there is always more to come. Outside of work\, Lydia has a passion for traveling the world\, mentoring the #girlies\, and hikin g with her husband\, Scott\, and their dog\, Logan.\n\nAngela Lu (Cornell ILR ‘13 & WashU MBA ‘19) is a strategy consultant for Acumetis\, an in ternational firm offering their expertise to life sciences and biopharma c lients. Angela leads cross-functional engagements to diagnose root causes of her clients’ complex issues and to build strategic systems to address them. While at Cornell\, she was actively involved with the Forensics Soc iety (speech & debate)\, faQ Online\, and The Advocacy Center. Angela was born in Canada and grew up in Hong Kong where her parents still reside. Sh e first came to the US to attend Cornell\, and since leaving Ithaca\, her personal journey has spanned 7 cities and 3 countries. She is an aspiring US immigrant who blends in so well most people assume she grew up in the U S. Her strong resolve helps her continually shake her culturally ingrained habit of social comparison when her inner critic pipes up. She currently serves as the president of the LGBTQIA+ Alumni Association of Cornell (aka Cornell Pride). Outside of work\, Angela clears her mind and re-energizes by crocheting and playing pickleball. \n\n \n\nAfter the panel discussion \, there will be a small reception open to all attendees with desserts\, t ea and coffee.

Fisher\, Assistant Professor\, Matsunaga Institute for Peace and Conflict Resoluti on\, School of Communication & Information at the University of Hawai'i at Mānoa\n\nThis Gatty Lecture will take place at the Kahin Center\, 640 St ewart Ave. Lunch will be served. For questions\, contact seap@cornell.edu. \n\nAbstract\n\nThis presentation draws together critical agrarian studies and the geopolitics of knowledge production to examine how inheritance re mains unsettled\, both for those who inherit land in Southeast Asia and fo r those who inherit the work of studying it. The talk unfolds in three par ts. The first establishes a conceptual foundation grounded in village-leve l land politics\, bringing foundational theories of property\, access\, an d exclusion into conversation with one another. The second draws on a deca de of editorial experience with the journal Forest and Society\, reflectin g on efforts to decenter academic publishing and elevate a new generation of scholarship from the region. The third looks toward a future for area s tudies built on regional networks\, using joint field schools as a model. This model has functioned as a mechanism for institutional parity with Sou theast Asian universities\, while also working to build equitable partners hips with local communities. I conclude with a framework for rethinking re source governance and collaborative pedagogy together in the study of cont emporary Southeast Asia.\n\nAbout the Speaker\n\nMicah R. Fisher\, Ph.D.\, is an Assistant Professor at the Matsunaga Institute for Peace & Conflict Resolution at the University of Hawaiʻi at Mānoa\, and Senior Researche r with the Forest and Society Research Group at Hasanuddin University in M akassar\, Indonesia.

This seminar is co-sponsored with CSI.\n\nFertility in the U.S . has been declining since the Great Recession\, even while the economy ha s recovered. One hypothesis for this decline is that the costs of raising children\, especially housing—many families' largest single expense—ha s increased faster than wages. We show that the relationship between housi ng costs and fertility is age-specific and dynamic\, and has undergone dra matic shifts since the Great Recession. We investigate potential sources o f these changes\, and discuss implications for policy and future demograph ic trends.

How (if at all) does t he nature of personhood and personal identity across time bear on question s of agency? What is the nature of\, and relation between\, moral and crim inal responsibility? What is the relation between responsibility and the m etaphysical issues of determinism and free will? What do various psycholog ical disorders (autism\, psychopathy\, cognitive disabilities) tell us abo ut agency and responsibility? What is involved in the development of moral agency? What is the will\, willpower\, and weakness (or strength) of will ? What do the results from neuroscience imply (if anything) for our questi ons about agency and responsibility? What is the nature of autonomy and ho w is it related to agency and responsibility?\n\nWork in agency and respon sibility\, while more or less having a home base in the world of moral phi losophy\, draws from a host of cross-disciplinary sources\, including mora l psychology\, psychology proper (experimental\, developmental\, etc.)\, p olitical economy\, philosophy of psychology\, philosophy of law\, legal th eory\, metaphysics\, neuroscience\, neuroethics\, social norm theory\, pol itical philosophy\, and more. It is unified by its focus on who we are as deliberators and (inter)actors\, embodied practical agents negotiating (so metimes unsuccessfully) a world of moral and legal norms. This Keynote Tal k will introduce the topics and discussions which will be held at Cornell University on October 24th. Though the workshop is by-invitation only\, th is Keynote is open to the Cornell community.

Through close readings of posts by Korean American community organiza tions\, collectives\, cultural workers\, and movement practitioners\, it t races how grassroots creators situate U.S. militarism on the Korean penins ula within interconnected histories of settler colonialism\, global capita lism\, and indigenous dispossession. Kim develops the concept of the ante- colonial\, a trans-indigenous analytic oriented toward precolonial epistem ologies and anticolonial futures that denaturalizes the nation-state\, for egrounds indigenous relationality\, and enables a planetary critique of em pire rooted in care\, kinship\, collective liberation\, and decolonial pos sibility.\n\nSpeaker's bio: Sandra So Hee Chi Kim is an Assistant Professo r of Asian and Asian American Studies at Stony Brook University.

Their annual performance at Sage Chapel is a highlig ht of the spooky season in Ithaca!\n\nFaust—directed by the legendary F. W. Murnau—centers on an elderly alchemist named Faust (Gösta Ekman) who makes a pact with the demon Mephisto (Emil Jannings) to gain the power to protect his village from plague. Faust soon succumbs to temptation and as ks Mephisto to restore his youth and help him acquire all the hedonistic p leasures that earth can offer. Eventually\, his love affair with a young w oman named Gretchen (Camilla Horn) leads to tragic and devastating consequ ences for them both.\n\nFaust is the quintessential “deal with the devil ” tale based on a centuries-old European legend and Johann Wofgang Goeth e’s 1808 play\, which is considered one of Germany’s greatest literary works. The play also inspired the famous opera by Charles Guonod which di rector F.W. Murnau used as a map for his 1926 film. (Fun fact: Faust is th e opera being presented in Gaston Leroux’s Phantom of the Opera\, which Cornell Cinema featured at Sage Chapel last year.) Virtually every "sell y our soul" type story from the film Crossroads to songs like "The Devil Wen t Down To Georgia" owes a debt to Faust — whether their creators realize it or not!\n\nThe event will take place at Sage Chapel\, Ho Plaza\, Ithac a\, New York.

In the past decade\, hundreds of agriculture technology (agtech) start-ups ha ve emerged\, promising to design and scale technologically mediated sustai nability solutions. India has become a significant destination for investm ents in these start-ups\, offering a unique vantage point to examine their impacts. This talk traces how aspirations to address the ecological crisi s urgently and at scale intersect with the complex environmental\, social\ , economic\, political\, and cultural relationships that shape agriculture . Alternate Wetting and Drying (AWD) of rice fields\, a technique aimed at mitigating emissions by killing methanogenic soil bacteria\, has gained t raction among tech entrepreneurs as a key sustainability program for reduc ing emissions. Based on institutional ethnography at an Indian agtech star t-up\, this talk examines why and how technological interventions like AWD consistently face challenges\, often fail\, and yet continue to reappear. What drives their persistence despite repeated failures on the ground? Ho w are these tied to the financing and scaling models of climate-smart tech nologies? By addressing these questions\, the talk highlights the tensions and contradictions at the heart of scaling tech-entrepreneurial sustainab ility and their implications for addressing the intertwined crises of clim ate change and agriculture.\n\n \n\nNikhit Agrawal is a postdoctoral assoc iate working on carbon and data governance in the Natural Resources and th e Environment program at Cornell University. He completed his PhD in socio cultural anthropology at UCLA in March 2026. His research examines tech-en trepreneurial promises of scaling sustainability in contemporary agricultu re. Agrawal’s work has been published or forthcoming in Economic Anthrop ology\, Critique of Anthropology\, Journal of Agrarian Change\, Economic & Political Weekly\, Scroll.in\, The Wire\, India in Transition\, and The I ndian Express. He has received grants from the Wenner-Gren Foundation\, th e UCLA International Institute and the Center for India and South Asia. Hi s awards include the Robert B. Edgerton Endowed Award and the Eric R. Wolf Award from the Society for the Anthropology of Work\, American Anthropolo gical Association.

Drawing on themes from his most recent book\, Red Daw n over China: How Communism Conquered a Quarter of Humanity\, Dikötter wi ll reassess the rise of the Chinese Communist Party from its founding in 1 921 to its seizure of power in 1949\, with particular attention to politic al violence\, propaganda\, Soviet support\, and grassroots coercion\, as w ell as the ways in which these forces shaped revolutionary legitimacy and the establishment of Communist rule in China.\n\nAbout Professor Frank Dik otter\n\nProfessor Frank Dikötter is the Milias Senior Fellow at the Hoov er Institution and chair professor of humanities at the University of Hong Kong. He is the most widely read living historian of modern China\, with books translated into more than twenty languages. He is the author of The People’s Trilogy\, which includes Mao’s Great Famine (2010)\, The Trag edy of Liberation (2013)\, and The Cultural Revolution (2016).\n\nBorn in the Netherlands\, Dikötter was educated in Switzerland and graduated from the University of Geneva in 1985 with honors in history and Russian. He t hen spent two years in the People’s Republic of China and three years la ter obtained a PhD in history at the School of Oriental and African Studie s (SOAS)\, University of London. He published a revised version of his dis sertation as The Discourse of Race in Modern China with Stanford Universit y Press (1992). He spent close to twenty years at SOAS\, recasting the his tory of Republican China in a series of five research monographs that culm inated in the long essay China before Mao: The Age of Openness (2005).\n\n In 2006\, Dikötter moved to Asia to join the University of Hong Kong. The re he was the first—and apparently only—foreigner to systematically us e a whole range of archives of the Communist Party of China\, using thousa nds of files to document the fate of ordinary people under Mao in The Peop le’s Trilogy. Mao’s Great Famine: The History of China’s Most Devast ating Catastrophe covered a man-made disaster that led to the deaths of at least 45 million people between 1958 and 1962. In 2011 the book obtained the Samuel Johnson Prize for Non-Fiction\, Britain’s most prestigious li terary award. It was followed by The Tragedy of Liberation: A History of t he Chinese Revolution\, 1945–1957 and The Cultural Revolution: A People ’s History\, 1962–1976.\n\nDikötter’s other more recent books inclu de How to be a Dictator (2019)\, with chapters on eight dictators from Mus solini to Mengistu\, China after Mao (2022)\, a sequel to the trilogy\, wh ich showed how the forty years known as “Reform and Opening Up” from 1 978 onwards were instead a concerted effort to reinforce the party’s mon opoly over power and its control over the commanding heights of the econom y\, in explicitly Marxist-Leninist fashion.\n\nDikötter joined the Hoover Institution as adjunct in 2017 and was named Milias Senior Fellow on a fu ll-time basis in 2025. He has an honorary doctorate from Leiden University .\n\nThis event is co-sponsored by: The Dean's Office of the College of Ar ts & Sciences\, The Department of History\, The Office of the Dean of Facu lty\, The Einaudi Center\, The East Asia Program\, and Cornell Center for Social Sciences.\n\n*Please register for the event here: https://forms.gle /8CThemHjeZT1KjW79 LAST-MODIFIED:20260917T002134Z LOCATION:Rockefeller Hall\, 201 - Schwartz Auditorium URL:https://events.cornell.edu/event/red-dawn-over-china-how-communism-con quered-a-quarter-of-humanity?utm_source=caldiscovery&utm_medium=ics&utm_ca mpaign=ithaca-ny X-SOURCE-NAME:Cornell Calendar X-SOURCE-URL:https://events.cornell.edu END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT SUMMARY:Girls (Gold) 7th/8th Soccer @ Corning-Painted Post DTSTART:20261027T210000Z DTEND:20261027T223000Z DTSTAMP:20260807T040216Z UID:https://www.schedulegalaxy.com/schools/140/teams/51317/games/1519568 CATEGORIES:sports LAST-MODIFIED:20260807T040216Z LOCATION:Erwin Valley Elementary School URL:https://www.schedulegalaxy.com/schools/140/teams/51317/games/1519568?u tm_source=caldiscovery&utm_medium=ics&utm_campaign=ithaca-ny X-SOURCE-NAME:Ithaca X-SOURCE-URL:https://www.schedulegalaxy.com/schools/140 END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT SUMMARY:Weekly Accountability & Support Sessions (WASS) DTSTART:20261027T210000Z DTEND:20261027T230000Z DTSTAMP:20260912T000340Z UID:tag:localist.com\,2008:EventInstance_53523890908850 CATEGORIES:education DESCRIPTION:What is it?

Linear regression s uffers in two important ways as the number of predictors becomes large. Fi rst\, overfitting may occur\, meaning that the fitted model does not relia bly generalize beyond the particular data observed. Second\, it becomes di fficult to interpret the fitted models. Penalized regression methods addre ss both of these issues by “shrinking” some of the regression paramete r estimates towards zero in order to identify a small number of predictors on which a reliable model can be built.\nIn this workshop\, we will\n\n· introduce the challenges of building models with large numbers of v ariables\n· give a conceptual explanation for ridge regression\, th e Lasso\, and elastic net\n· demonstrate how these methods can be p erformed on an example dataset\n· explain how to interpret the stan dard plots and outputs associated with penalized regression\n· expl ain how cross validation is used within the context of the penalized regre ssion\n\nWe will assume familiarity with linear regression. The code demon strations will be performed in R. However\, the workshop should be useful to those who do not use R\, and we will briefly discuss performing penaliz ed regression in other common statistical packages as well.\n\nRegister No w LAST-MODIFIED:20260812T180147Z URL:https://events.cornell.edu/event/penalized-regression-for-model-select ion-ridge-lasso-and-elastic-net?utm_source=caldiscovery&utm_medium=ics&utm _campaign=ithaca-ny X-SOURCE-NAME:Cornell Calendar X-SOURCE-URL:https://events.cornell.edu END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT SUMMARY:Cornell Faculty and Staff Assistance Program (FSAP) Grief Support Group DTSTART:20261028T153000Z DTEND:20261028T165000Z DTSTAMP:20260827T180155Z UID:tag:localist.com\,2008:EventInstance_53814765571742 CATEGORIES:community DESCRIPTION:The pain of losing a spouse\, parent\, child\, or other family member or friend is profound and often more complex than we expect.

From a human‑centric perspective\, the loss of insect pollinators co uld lead to production losses of up to 90% for crops that rely heavily on them\, such as cocoa beans\, Brazil nuts\, kiwis\, and various melons. Man y other crops\, including numerous fruits and nuts\, are also highly depen dent on insect pollinators.

The book documents how foreig n donors from the U.S. and Japan brought distinctive priorities that modif ied their women’s health programming\, with the U.S. emphasizing market- based empowerment and Japan\, state-based development. In response\, devel opment actors in Cambodia use donor differences to argue for two model pat hs to development: one they call a “Western” path\, the other an “As ian” one. Combining elements of each\, Cambodians construct their own hy brid visions of the role that the state\, market\, civil society\, and gen der should play in development. This research illustrates the on-the-groun d processes through which contemporary notions of global development\, lon g associated with traditional Western donors\, are coming undone\, and the important role that practitioners in recipient nations play in imagining new paths to advancement.\n\nAbout the Speaker\n\nMary-Collier Wilks is an Assistant Professor of Sociology at the University of North Carolina Wilm ington.

Bardiwil is Associate Professor of Asian and Middle Eastern Studies at Duke University. His most recent book Revolution and Disenchantment: Arab Marxism and the Binds of Emancipation (Duke UP 2020) focuses on how the 1960s Arab New Left addressed the quest ion of mediation between theory and practice\, the international circulati on of critical theory\, the genealogies of postcolonial critique\, and the traditions of intellectual inquiry and political engagement of contempora ry Arab thinkers. Bardiwil is trained as a cultural anthropologist and hi s ethnographic and historical archival research informs “fieldwork in th eory\,” to excavate texts\, examine the conditions under which they were produced\, received\, translated\, and how they authorized political prac tice. Bardiwil’s latest project re-reads the theoretical and political work of Edward Said and Talal Asad from a current vantage point to explore what was at stake for them in developing their own exilic/diasporic criti cal agendas\, and to re-think the question of war\, and violence. \n\n \n\ nBardiwil publishes in a variety of venues: English language publications such as American Ethnologyist\, boundary2\; Comparative Studies of South Asia\, Africa and the Middle East\, South Atlantic Quarterly\, and Arabic journals\, e-zines and alternative media platforms. He has been contributi ng to the Arabic edition of the Journal for Palestine Studies since 2010 a nd has written for the Syrian opposition e-zine al-Jumhuriyya. Since Octob er 2019\, he has contributed weekly op-eds and longer essays to Megaphone\ , a Lebanese online independent multi-media platform.\n\n \n\nBefore joini ng the faculty at Duke\, Bardawil taught at University of North Carolina –Chapel Hill and the University of Chicago. He was a Global South Visit ing Scholar at Princeton University (2025-26)\, and a faculty member at Co rnell’s School of Criticism & Theory (2025).

Community lecture\, part of the Language\, memory\, future: Celebrating 250 years o f language in our region event series.\n\nFor generations of Deaf people\, American Sign Language has been deeply connected to place\, community\, h istory\, and identity.

Recent advances in implantable bioelectronics have enabled simultaneous recordings of hundreds of neurons in behaving animals. Howev er\, existing neural interfaces often remain bulky\, constraining animal b ehavior\, and rigid recording electrodes do not allow recording the same n eurons over multiple days due to tissue micromovements\, limiting the stud y of learning and memory mechanisms.\n\nIn this talk\, I will present our recently developed implantable platforms for large-scale\, long-term neura l recording and manipulation in rodents and other animals. We created pary lene-C–based\, high-density flexible electrodes using a multilayer desig n and micro-patterned conducting polymers\, achieving a higher density-to- volume ratio than existing silicon probes. These devices allow stably trac king hundreds of the same neurons for months\, overcoming the limitations of rigid recording electrodes.\n\nWe further engineered a wireless neural interface enabling untethered recording and closed-loop modulation in free ly behaving small animals. Direct under-chip bonding of flexible probes yi elded a compact system weighing under 1.2 g. Integrated onboard sensors ca ptured behaviorally relevant variables\, including locomotion\, vocalizati on\, and pupil dynamics. An AI-driven embedded signal-processing pipeline detected neural and behavioral biomarkers in real time to trigger targeted interventions. Together\, these technologies have enabled us to investiga te neural mechanisms of behavior under conditions that were previously ina ccessible.\n \n\nBio: Antonio Fernandez-Ruiz is an associate professor at the Department of Neurobiology and Behavior in Cornell University. He stud ied physics and biology at the Universities of Sevilla and Madrid\, in Spa in. He completed his Ph.D. at the University of Madrid\, where he develope d machine learning methods to study the biophysical basis of brain dynamic s. He then moved to New York University to work as a postdoctoral fellow i n the laboratory of Gyorgy Buzsaki. His research focused on the neural cir cuit mechanisms of learning and memory in rodents. His work elucidated how the temporal coordination of excitatory and inhibitory inputs mediates co mmunication between brain areas and supports learning. He developed a nove l approach to causally probe the role of specific patterns of neural activ ity in behavior and used it to demonstrate the key function of neuronal se quence in memory formation.\n\nThe overarching mission of his lab at Corne ll is to understand how neuronal dynamics in distributed brain circuits su pport complex cognitive functions and how small imbalances can lead to pat hological states. His group investigates the algorithmic and mechanistic u nderpinnings of learning\, memory and decision making in health and diseas e at the computational\, circuit\, and cellular levels. Work from his labo ratory elucidated how cellular heterogeneity and circuit dynamics contribu te to the computational capabilities of hippocampal and cortical structure s\, found novel circuit for the associative and predictive functions of me mory and discovered how the temporal organization of brain dynamics in sle ep contribute to memory consolidation and integration. They also develop n ovel technology for a more precise interrogation of neural circuit activit y in health and disease.\n\nAntonio is a Pew\, Klingenstein and Sloan Scho lar\, and the recipient of the Gruber International Research Award in Neur oscience (SfN)\, the Blavatnik Award for Young Scientists in the Life Scie nces\, the Freedman Prize for Exceptional Basic Research (BBRF)\, the New Innovator Award (NIH) and the MIND Prize (PSF).
