Celebrate the opening of Hayward Oubre: Structural Integrity at the Stanley Museum of Art.Join us for an evening of opening remarks, refreshments, and music, as we celebrate the first-ever retrospective of the American modernist and University of Iowa alumnus, Hayward L. Oubre, Jr. (1916–2006).Organized by the Birmingham Museum of Art, this travelling exhibition features a stunning and extensive display of 52 sculptures, paintings, and prints by Oubre.Visitors will have a great time exploring...

Ada Crogman Franklin's Milestones of a Race was produced in 15 cities in the 1920s. The pageant depicted African American history in nine scenes with music and frequently involved 500 or 600 cast members. This paper explains Milestones' origins in the recreation movement and explores the ways it was received by its participants and both Black and white audiences.———Marian Wilson Kimber has taught at Iowa since 2004. Her second book, Clubwomen Activists and the Making of American Music is...

Searching for ultrahigh-energy neutrinos with balloon-borne neutrino telescopesMary Hall Reno, PhDUltrahigh-energy neutrinos carry information about the highest energy astrophysical sources. Neutrinos are not deflected by magnetic fields nor absorbed in transit from the source to Earth. Low fluxes of ultrahigh-energy neutrinos and their weak interactions require very large detection volumes. One technique to detect them is to use the Earth as a tau neutrino converter, in which tau leptons can...

This is the first step in the REDCap training series. In this training, we will build a new REDCap project from scratch and cover basic features such as: • Building forms with proper field types and validation • Assigning user permissions • Project backup and overview with data dictionary, codebook, pdf, and xml • Ensuring your project works properly by testing with real world application • Making mid-study modifications safely after having started data collection in production • Creating...

"Electrocatalyst Discovery: From Single Atoms to Megalibraries"

This training will provide an in-depth look at TriNetX and show you how to use the tool. We will go through building a study, searching for a specific population, and finally what information you can gather from the specific cohort. We will also discuss next steps on getting data extracted for research. After this training you will have a thorough understanding of how to use TriNetX and what the process is to get data extracted for research studies. Register by clicking the virtual event link...

Wavelet methods in quantum field theoryWayne Polyzou, PhDThis is a talk that I will present (by zoom) at JLAB later this month.I will discuss a representation of local quantum fields using Daubechies' wavelets, which are fractal-valued functions that are useful for data compression (related functions are used in jpeg photographs, the film industry, and the FBI fingerprint database). Basis functions are generated from the fixed point of a renormalization group equation by scale transformations...

Navigating a Cosmic Maelstrom with Sub-Parsec Observations of Cool Gas Around Our Central Supermassive Black HoleMark Gorski, PhDHiding behind the dust lanes of the Milky Way lives our closest supermassive black hole (Sagittarius A* or Sgr A*). It is hailed as both our best hope to study black hole physics, accretion, feeding, and feedback, and as too complex a region to completely understand. The absence of any signatures of an active outflow and the spin orientation of the black hole are some...

This is the second step in the REDCap training series. In this training we will cover basic and intermediate features such as: • Outputting data automatically with calculated fields • Collecting the same data points multiple times with longitudinal and one-to-many data collection • Standardizing your data to industry standards with ontologies and the REDCap Instrument Library • Ways to customize your data entry experience with action tags • Viewing data with reports, dashboards, and charts...
