SUMMARY:Early Books Lecture Series VII\: War\, Peace\, Faith\, Poetry
DESCRIPTION:The University Libraries Special Collections hosts Early Books Lecture Series VII\, an annual exploration throughout February by UA scholars of medieval texts held by the UA Libraries. The lecture will be given by professor Albrecht Classen\, of the department of German studies. In \"War and Peace in the Middle Ages - With Some Sprinkling of Toleration\: Wolfram von Eschenbach's 'Willehalm\,'\" Classen examines Wolfram von Eschenbach's \"Willehalm\,\" a German narrative poem about two mighty battles\, which describe both the beauty and horror that occur when noble knights and Saracens clash in mortal combat. The poem explores the relationship between the two faiths and the role of love within the context of war. The scene of the fighting\, Alischanz\, is the site of a Roman cemetery in the south of France.

SUMMARY:College of Science Lecture Series\: Mind and Brain
DESCRIPTION:Leslie Tolbert\, Regents' Professor of Neuroscience and Vice President for Research at the University of Arizona will discuss \"The Plastic Brain.\"  The human brain is the most complex object known to us. It contains roughly a trillion nerve cells\, each of which may make thousands of connections\, in immense networks of circuitry that control our sense of self and our appreciation of - and interaction with - the world around us. In the last half century we learned that we are born with raw circuitry that quickly tunes itself to the environment we encounter. Now we are learning that the properties that allow nerve cells to achieve this \"plasticity\" in response to the early environment are controlled by the very same genes that drive learning and memory in adults.  The human brain\, and the mind it creates\, is enormously complex. Everything we do\, feel and think emerges from billions of nerve cells and their interconnections. Brain development is shaped by evolution and genetics\, but is also greatly affected by experience. The mind takes shape through exposure to individuals and cultures\, and becomes a constructive and predictive device. It creates inner worlds - past\, present and future - that allow us to behave in highly adaptive ways\, if we so choose. It also allows us to engage in risky behavior and make bad decisions. Six speakers in this UA College of Science series will explore how brains are built\, how minds are made\, and how modern cognitive and neural science is changing the way we think about memory\, money\, morality\, mortality and more.  Parking is available on a pay per use basis in the Tyndall Avenue Garage. Call 520-621-4090 or go to the College of Science Web site for more information.

SUMMARY:Architecture Lecture by Chris Lasch\: \"Aggregations\"
DESCRIPTION:Aranda\\Lasch is a New York-based architectural studio dedicated to experimental research and innovative building. Established in 2003 by Chris Lasch and Benjamin Aranda\, the studio designs buildings\, installations and objects through a deep investigation of materials and structure. The approach can be described as intuitive computing\, which is not about problem solving but rather opening up new opportunities in design. Winners of the United States Artists Award and Young Architects Award in 2007\, their early architectural projects are the subject of the book \"Pamphlet Architecture #27\: Tooling.\" In 2008 the studio collaborated with artist Matthew Ritchie on a pavilion-sized work\, \"The Morning Line\,\" for the 2008 Venice Biennial and the Seville Biennial. In addition to commercial and residential projects in New York\, the studio completed a 42\,000-square-foot temporary structure for Design Miami in 2009. Aranda\\Lasch continually develops experimental furniture products that explore new concepts in fabrication and assembly and are represented by Johnson Trading Gallery in New York. Aranda\\Lasch will be featured in the upcoming 2010 Venice Architecture Biennial.

SUMMARY:Arizona Center for Integrative Medicine Grand Rounds
DESCRIPTION:Early life exposures to environmental contaminants may disrupt neurodevelopment and produce physical and physiologic alterations predisposing to disease and disability later in life. These risks are modified by the social environment\, a fact that supports early intervention as well as prevention of exposures. This presentation will provide a context for clinicians answering patient questions about low dose environmental exposures to chemicals such as bisphenol A and flame retardants.   Dr. Mark Miller is an assistant clinical professor of pediatrics at the University of California San Francisco. He currently serves as the director of the University of California San Francisco Pediatric Environmental Health Specialty Unit  and as a public health medical officer for the California Environmental Protection Agency Office of Environmental Health Hazard Assessment. He completed his doctor of medicine degree and pediatric residency at Michigan State University College of Human Medicine and a Master of Public Health degree in environmental health sciences from the School of Public Health at University of California\, Berkeley. He completed a residency in preventive medicine with the California Department of Health Services. Miller spent 13 years as a pediatrician in private practice in Chico\, Calif. He is a Fellow of the American Academy of Pediatrics and co-chairman of California Chapter 1\, American Academy of Pediatrics Environmental Health Committee.  In addition\, he is a former member of the American Academy of Pediatrics National Committee on Environmental Health. Miller's articles on pediatric environmental health issues have appeared in such publications as Pediatrics\, Environmental Health Perspectives\, Integrative Pediatrics and the Handbook of Pediatric Environmental Health\, published by the American Academy of Pediatrics.   The views expressed by Miller are his and do not necessarily represent those of the Office of Environmental Health Hazard Assessment of the California Environmental Protection Agency.

SUMMARY:Higher Education Colloquium\:  Lobbyist Panel
DESCRIPTION:Greg Fahey\, University of Arizona associate vice president of government relations\, and Christine Thompson\, Arizona Board of Regents assistant executive director of government affairs\, will participate in a lobbyist panel.   Higher education is facing an unprecedented economic crisis. The nationwide economic recession has left many state budgets in an upheaval and has severely impacted institutions of higher education across the United States.  Public universities in particular are caught in a tight balancing act of generating additional revenue while maintaining their land-grant missions.  While higher education scholars have investigated and theorized about institutional change few have actually engaged institutional leaders and the local community - including legislators\, lobbyists and other leaders - on the current problems\, the decision making processes and creative solutions. This unique colloquium invites higher education and community leaders to share their experiences and insights and engage in meaningful dialogue on forging unchartered solutions.
