The exhibition curated by Susan Bright investigates one crucial issue – that of absence. It looks at who gets represented in the newspaper and how that representation takes shape. It takes as its medium one that is disappearing. The featured artists undertake interventions into newspapers by concealing, obstructing, redacting, or disguising elements of the medium to highlight this representation (or lack of it). This invites the audience to contemplate issues of subjectivity, trust, and control in press coverage.

Featured artists include Alexandra Bell, Jennifer Bolande, Daniela Comani, Toni Pepe, Anne Eastman, Odette England, Laura Letinsky, Lorie Novak, Sa’dia Rehman, Donna Ruff, Lorna Simpson, Mickey Smith, Clare Strand, and Carmen Winant.

The galleries are open Tuesday through Saturday, 11am to 5pm. Between the Bylines will be closed for Thanksgiving from Sunday, November 22 through Monday, November 30.

In "This Is Also a Love Story", Hayden reexamines catastrophe through the love stories she has come across. She introduces us to a mother in northeast Nigeria who risks everything to save her daughter from forced marriage to Boko Haram militants, and to a group of Syrian women who have tirelessly searched for their missing spouses and children, while launching a call for justice. We meet a couple separated by the Russian invasion of Ukraine and read letters from the bereaved to the dead, still being written over a decade after the tsunami that devastated Japan. Through these stories, which crisscross the globe, from Uganda to Lebanon, Ghana, Rwanda and Iraq, she challenges us to reconsider what it means to be alive on this planet today.

Title: "Computational Imaging with Uncertain Forward Models"

Presenter: Wentao Shangguan

Advisor: Professor Vivek Goyal

Chair: Professor Wei-Lun Chao

Committee: Professor Vivek Goyal, Professor Wei-Lun Chao, Professor Kayhan Batmanghelich

A bstract: Computational imaging relies on forward models whose parameters, such as blur kernels or material emissivities, are often uncertain. Fixing these parameters at estimated values can cause reconstruction to absorb model error into the desired signal. This dissertation studies the resulting ambiguities and develops methods that account for parameter uncertainty. In passive long-wave infrared ranging, changes in depth can be locally offset by changes in temperature and emissivity. SpecDepth combines hyperspectral radiance measurements with a learned spatial depth prior to constrain this ambiguity. On eight registered scenes, it reduces mean depth root-mean-square error from 60.02 m for physics inversion to 21.64 m. For inverse problems with a supplied parameter distribution, we introduce an uncertainty aware likelihood (UAL), a Gaussian approximation to the likelihood averaged over that distribution. UAL propagates supplied parameter means and covariances into a structured measurement covariance that depends on the candidate image and weights residuals in diffusion posterior sampling. Under a fixed Gaussian parameter model and independent Gaussian observation noise, we bound the likelihood approximation error. In a two-parameter blur experiment, UAL agrees more closely with numerical marginalization than point and isotropic approximations. Controlled deblurring experiments show gains from preserving covariance structure, and evaluations across six inverse problems show reconstruction gains. The proposed work extends the same treatment of uncertainty to inputs beyond the measurement model, and asks when retaining a distribution over them improves the result.

Through this talk Jean Oi (Stanford University) will present preliminary findings that open the black box of subnational actors in Chinese overseas investment. She will map who the investors are, whether state or private sector, where they originate within China, and where they locate overseas. Professor Oi will show that industrial parks (产业园区)—much as in China—are a central organizational hub for Chinese firms abroad, and that while some parks begin as private entrepreneurial ventures, over time a local government often steps in to promote and invest in them increasing their economic and strategic significance.

This event will be moderated by Professor Min Ye and hosted at the Pardee Center for the Study of the Longer-Range Future, 67 Bay State Road, Boston from 4:00-5:30pm.

Title: Taking Luminescence Thermometry to Extremes for Device, Energy, and Catalysis Applications

Abstract: From next-generation electronics to lithium-ion batteries to emerging catalytic processes, broad swaths of modern technology combine a need for micro- to nanoscale thermal metrology with challenging operating conditions. However, existing thermometry techniques often fall short of providing the requisite spatial resolution and operando capabilities. This talk will present three examples of pushing the boundaries of luminescence thermometry to address such challenges. First, a super-resolution nanothermometry technique based on stimulated emission depletion (STED) imaging of highly doped upconverting nanoparticles (UCNPs) will be introduced, which enables far-field optical thermometry with spatial resolution below the diffraction limit. The results showcase the ability of STED nanothermometry to reveal a temperature gradient across a Joule-heated microstructure that is undetectable with diffraction-limited thermometry. Second, the application of operando UCNP thermometry to dual-functional materials (DFMs), which combine endothermic CO2 desorption with an exothermic reaction, will be discussed. By incorporating UCNPs into a model DFM, temperature rises ~10-100 K above the catalyst bed set temperature are recorded. Finally, operando internal battery thermometry via UCNPs incorporated into commercial lithium-based coin cells will be highlighted. Under elevated discharge currents, temperature differences of several degrees between internal components and the battery exterior are observed.

Title: Multimode Fibers for Power Scaling and the Suppression of Nonlinear Effects in High-Power Fiber Amplifiers

Abstract: Fiber lasers and amplifiers have been shown to achieve high optical powers with excellent beam quality, enabling applications in both fundamental science and industry. This excellent beam quality has been predominantly obtained through single mode operation, however single mode fiber lasers are beginning to reach hard limits on power scaling due to the onset of nonlinear effects at high power. Multimode fibers (MMFs) offer inherently higher nonlinear effect thresholds, enabling further power scaling, but with significantly reduced beam quality.

Advanced wavefront-shaping techniques leverage deterministic propagation through an MMF to produce a potentially near-diffraction-limited spot at the fiber output through optimization of the input wavefront. A demonstration of wavefront shaping techniques applied to a high-power, 1550 nm pulsed Er/Yb fiber amplifier system will be presented, along with record peak-power results from a fiber amplifier at 1550 nm. Additionally, a novel MMF amplifier model will be presented, demonstrating the ability to model multimode dynamics in a MMF amplifier to a greater degree of accuracy than current literature.

Bio: Darcy Smith is in the final stages of his PhD at Adelaide University with an anticipated submission date of November 2026. He is affiliated with the Australian Research Council Centre of Excellence for Gravitational Wave Discovery (OzGrav) and the Institute for Photonics and Advanced Sensing (IPAS). He has received the M.Phil. degree in physics with a thesis focused on multimode fiber sensing with specialty and microstructured optical fibers. His current PhD studies involve working with a high-power, 1550nm, Er/Yb multimode fiber amplifier, investigating novel wavefront shaping and nonlinear effect suppression techniques. In 2025, he was the recipient of the competitive South Australian Defence, Space and Cyber Security scholarship offered by the American Australian Association, enabling six months working with Prof. A. Douglas Stone at Yale University on the modeling of multimode fiber amplifiers.

In this talk, Adithya will show how sound can be used to build ultrafast optical components that operate at megahertz rates—three orders of magnitude faster than conventional approaches—and integrate seamlessly with modern high-speed sensors. These capabilities enable a range of applications, including high-speed projection, LiDAR, structured-light scanning, event-based light field imaging, underwater optical backscatter communication, and imaging through challenging environments. To design these systems before building the hardware, we relied on simulation: physics-based rendering techniques. These techniques were originally developed to synthesize photorealistic images for graphics, film, and entertainment. Adithya will show how they can be modified to accurately model computational cameras and the physics that governs them. This tight integration of physical simulation, optics, sensing, and computation is opening new opportunities for designing the next generation of fast computational imaging systems.

Adithya Pediredla is an Assistant Professor of Computer Science at Dartmouth College, where he directs the Rendering and Imaging Science (RISc) Lab. His research lies at the intersection of computer graphics, computational imaging, and computer vision, and spans applications such as novel event sensing, time-of-flight imaging, acousto-optics, underwater imaging and communication, neural scene representations, and computational microscopy. His work has appeared in leading venues, including SIGGRAPH/ACM Transactions on Graphics, CVPR, ICCV, ECCV, ICCP, IEEE TPAMI, Nature, and other top conferences and journals in graphics and imaging. His work has received several distinctions, including the Ralph Budd Best Engineering Thesis Award and the SIGGRAPH Honorable Mention Paper Award. Prior to joining Dartmouth, Adithya received his Ph.D. from Rice University and completed a postdoctoral fellowship at Carnegie Mellon University.

Computational imaging has transformed the way we capture the world by jointly designing optics, sensors, and algorithms to recover information beyond the capabilities of conventional cameras. Yet this increased capability often comes at the cost of speed. As imaging systems measure higher-dimensional signals such as light fields, time-of-flight, spectra, or polarization, they typically trade off spatial or temporal resolution. While recent advances in sensing hardware, specialized processors, and AI/ML have dramatically accelerated acquisition and reconstruction, the optical front end has largely remained the bottleneck.

In this talk, Adithya will show how sound can be used to build ultrafast optical components that operate at megahertz rates—three orders of magnitude faster than conventional approaches—and integrate seamlessly with modern high-speed sensors. These capabilities enable a range of applications, including high-speed projection, LiDAR, structured-light scanning, event-based light field imaging, underwater optical backscatter communication, and imaging through challenging environments.

The exhibition curated by Susan Bright investigates one crucial issue – that of absence. It looks at who gets represented in the newspaper and how that representation takes shape. It takes as its medium one that is disappearing. The featured artists undertake interventions into newspapers by concealing, obstructing, redacting, or disguising elements of the medium to highlight this representation (or lack of it). This invites the audience to contemplate issues of subjectivity, trust, and control in press coverage.

Featured artists include Alexandra Bell, Jennifer Bolande, Daniela Comani, Toni Pepe, Anne Eastman, Odette England, Laura Letinsky, Lorie Novak, Sa’dia Rehman, Donna Ruff, Lorna Simpson, Mickey Smith, Clare Strand, and Carmen Winant.

The galleries are open Tuesday through Saturday, 11am to 5pm. Between the Bylines will be closed for Thanksgiving from Sunday, November 22 through Monday, November 30.

Effectively preventing and responding to bullying is one of the most challenging issues facing schools. How bullying is addressed can impact mental health and suicide prevention. But what does an effective response actually look like? Drawing on research, real-world practice, and case law, we’ll examine how schools can strengthen their approach to bullying and use research to inform both prevention and response. We’ll discuss what the law requires, what research tells us about effective school responses, and how these perspectives can work together to improve outcomes for students and families. Content warning: This conversation will touch on youth suicide in the context of bullying.

Featuring:

-Jennifer Greif Green, Professor, Counseling Psychology, BU Wheelock

-Melissa Holt, Professor, Counseling Psychology, BU Wheelock, Arvind Chandan Nandlal Kilachand Professor, Director, Kilachand Honors College

-Kenneth B. Cole, Jr., Partner and Attorney, Conchin, Cole, Jordan & Sherrod

This is the weekend to see your Terrier in their element. You know, the dining hall they swear by, the corner of campus that's become "their spot", and the friends they can't stop talking about. Walk Comm Ave with them. Ask the questions you've been saving for when you’re with them. Let your student show off the life they've built here in Boston.

The timing couldn't be better. The Head of the Charles Regatta unfolds along the river all weekend, right from campus with boats slicing through the water with Boston's fall colors behind them. Between that and everything on the weekend's schedule, plus our curated guide to nearby restaurants, sights, and hotels, there's no shortage of ways to fill the days.

Dr. Tiera Tanksley applies a critical race technology theory (CRTT) in education, extending conventional education research to include socio-technical and techno-structural analyses of Al and EdTech. Specifically, her research examines anti-Blackness as "the default setting" and "organizing logic" of schools and school-based technologies and analyzes the socio-emotional and academic ramifications of algorithmic racism in the experiences of Black youth while recognizing their agency as digital activists and civic agitators able to subvert and resist algorithmically biased technologies to produce more just and joyous digital experiences for Communities of Color.

With an internationally renowned group of scholars, the two-day conference seeks to better understand the depth, breadth, and importance of his Jewish, literary, ethical and humanitarian legacies and contributions, in blessed memory and honor of his tenth Yahrzeit in 2026. Although mainly known as a premier chronicler of Holocaust memory, Prof. Wiesel's essential contributions extend to many other areas of life and learning. Our conference aims to make those eloquent and complex contributions--and the books, lectures, and activities through which they received expression--better known to scholars and the public alike.

​Margareta (Magda) Matache offers a new, sharply critical Romani perspective on the history of anti‑Roma racism, tracing it from the earliest projects to exploit, kill, or expel Romani people in the late Middle-Ages to contemporary politics of control and violence. She shows how, across geographies and political systems and regimes, the protectors and manifestations of anti‑Roma racism have reinvented themselves - adapting to new economic, political, social, cultural, and ideological contexts, while remaining a constant force in Romani lives.

The exhibition curated by Susan Bright investigates one crucial issue – that of absence. It looks at who gets represented in the newspaper and how that representation takes shape. It takes as its medium one that is disappearing. The featured artists undertake interventions into newspapers by concealing, obstructing, redacting, or disguising elements of the medium to highlight this representation (or lack of it). This invites the audience to contemplate issues of subjectivity, trust, and control in press coverage.

Featured artists include Alexandra Bell, Jennifer Bolande, Daniela Comani, Toni Pepe, Anne Eastman, Odette England, Laura Letinsky, Lorie Novak, Sa’dia Rehman, Donna Ruff, Lorna Simpson, Mickey Smith, Clare Strand, and Carmen Winant.

The galleries are open Tuesday through Saturday, 11am to 5pm. Between the Bylines will be closed for Thanksgiving from Sunday, November 22 through Monday, November 30.

Mentoring From the Middle is a three-part workshop series designed for doctoral students and postdocs. The series provides practical strategies for building productive mentoring relationships, supporting learning, and addressing problems before they become unmanageable. The goal is to help you find balance between being a supportive mentor and protecting your own time, research, and professional development.

Unit 3: Even strong mentoring relationships experience challenges, which can only be resolved through clear and open communication engaging both the mentor and mentee. In this webinar, we will discuss how to cultivate a positive feedback culture and will provide models and tools for providing effective feedback. We will also discuss balancing support for student learning with outside resources, responsibility, and accountability, and will explore when and how to engage others in resolving situations.

Speaker: Sharon Milgram, Ph.D., founder, Sharon Milgram & Associates, former director, NIH Office of Intramural Training & Education.

Madhushree Ghosh (Phd in biochemistry) is the author of Khabaar: An Immigrant Journey of Food, Memory and Family and SAFAR: Finding Home, History, and Culture through Punjabi Food in the American West. She is the creative founder of KhabaarCo, a global literary salon and supper club. As a TEDx Speaker, Madhushree interrogates cultural, culinary and immigration issues using food as a social justice tool.

Published in June of this year, Safar blends memoir and history to explore the role of Punjabi food in fostering community and identity among South Asian refugees and immigrants.

Safar follows the journey of South Asian refugees, immigrants, and their children-in particular, Sikhs, Jats, and Muslims-who moved to the southwestern states of America over centuries as farmers, truck drivers, restaurant owners, and dhaba/diner stall cooks. An expedition in search of the asli-or real Punjabi food-Madhushree Ghosh explores how their food traveled from pre-partition British India to now, while weaving in her own immigrant journey as a graduate student to America in 1993, her quest to find home through the food of her Bengali refugee parents, and the physical journey she embarked on to visit the Punjabi communities in California, Arizona, and New Mexico.

Focusing on four Punjabi women, each a part of a different immigration wave of South Asia to the American West, Ghosh highlights the food and recipes they brought with them that connect them to their pasts. Safar shares stories of displacement, discrimination, community, and hope, while shedding light on immigrant journeys and the true meaning of home, comfort food, and what constitutes a “true Punjabi” meal. Featuring essential recipes, this is a poignant reflection on what it means to find home and identity through food and culture as an immigrant to the United States.

A motley assortment of contestants participate in their annual finch-sitting competition, a Belgian folk competition that pits chaffinches (and their owners) against each other in a battle to see who has the most melodious bird. The contest is run as such: a man waves a flag and each of the competitors sits in front of a box containing one of their fellow contestants’ birds. Every time a bird makes a proper call (a suck-e-wiet, as it’s called in these circles) they receive a tally mark. The bird with the most points wins, bringing much pride to its trainer. Although a seemingly simple and gentle competition, access to the competitor’s inner monologues and flashbacks to their preparations reveal deception, deep-seated rivalries, painful loneliness, and blossoming romance. (Boosey & Hawkes)

The exhibition curated by Susan Bright investigates one crucial issue – that of absence. It looks at who gets represented in the newspaper and how that representation takes shape. It takes as its medium one that is disappearing. The featured artists undertake interventions into newspapers by concealing, obstructing, redacting, or disguising elements of the medium to highlight this representation (or lack of it). This invites the audience to contemplate issues of subjectivity, trust, and control in press coverage.

Featured artists include Alexandra Bell, Jennifer Bolande, Daniela Comani, Toni Pepe, Anne Eastman, Odette England, Laura Letinsky, Lorie Novak, Sa’dia Rehman, Donna Ruff, Lorna Simpson, Mickey Smith, Clare Strand, and Carmen Winant.

The galleries are open Tuesday through Saturday, 11am to 5pm. Between the Bylines will be closed for Thanksgiving from Sunday, November 22 through Monday, November 30.

Together, we will demonstrate practical research strategies that help students engage directly with primary sources, form their own interpretations, and use AI as a support, not a substitute for research. While the examples will focus on arts and culture, civil rights, sci-fi, and cognitive science, the strategies introduced can be applied across disciplines.

Higher education is not immune to racism, sexism, homophobia, transphobia and other forms of bias. Research shows there is a lack of people of color and women in academic leadership and faculty positions, and students, staff and faculty from marginalized backgrounds can face microaggressions and exclusion. This event will take an intersectional approach and consider the complexities and overlap of biases.

Dr. Jacobson López will draw on his own research throughout the discussion, offering both context and practical tools attendees can apply in their own workplaces and communities.

Abstract:Transcription factors (TFs) are master regulators of cellular gene expression, functioning through sequence-specific binding to DNA and recruitment of regulatory protein complexes at gene enhancers and promoters. In cancer and other diseases, TFs can serve as central drivers of oncogenic signaling through direct mutation or translocation, or through aberrant regulation by upstream signaling pathways. Despite extensive evidence that oncogenic TFs represent compelling therapeutic targets, they remain largely “undruggable” because of the challenges associated with developing drug-like molecules that disrupt protein–DNA and protein–protein interactions.In this talk, I will discuss the development of new synthetic platforms that enable the mapping and direct targeting of oncogenic TF function in vitro and in vivo. First, I will describe efforts to directly target TF–DNA interactions using a new class of fully synthetic, hyperstable TF mimetics that can be programmed to inhibit oncogenic TF signaling by blocking TF binding to regulatory DNA elements. I will highlight our efforts to target two notoriously challenging TFs, MYC and HIF1α, in vitro, in cells, and in animal models. Second, I will discuss native-cell chemoproteomic platforms for mapping TF “social networks”—the protein complexes and interaction partners that regulate TF function—directly in oncogenic cells and tissues with high spatial and temporal resolution. Finally, I will discuss how these topological maps of TF interaction networks can be leveraged to identify small molecules that regulate TF stability, localization, and function.

The exhibition curated by Susan Bright investigates one crucial issue – that of absence. It looks at who gets represented in the newspaper and how that representation takes shape. It takes as its medium one that is disappearing. The featured artists undertake interventions into newspapers by concealing, obstructing, redacting, or disguising elements of the medium to highlight this representation (or lack of it). This invites the audience to contemplate issues of subjectivity, trust, and control in press coverage.

Featured artists include Alexandra Bell, Jennifer Bolande, Daniela Comani, Toni Pepe, Anne Eastman, Odette England, Laura Letinsky, Lorie Novak, Sa’dia Rehman, Donna Ruff, Lorna Simpson, Mickey Smith, Clare Strand, and Carmen Winant.

The galleries are open Tuesday through Saturday, 11am to 5pm. Between the Bylines will be closed for Thanksgiving from Sunday, November 22 through Monday, November 30.
