<p> </p>

<p>As climate impacts accelerate and uncertainty grows, communities across the country are redefining what it means to be resilient. In this fireside chat with J.P Walsh, URI professor of oceanography, Jainey Bavishi will explore how equity, local leadership and civic collaboration form the backbone of effective climate action, even as traditional systems face strain. Drawing on lessons from city halls, federal agencies, and frontline communities, the conversation will highlight how resilience can endure and evolve from the ground up.
<br /> </p>

<p>About the Speaker</p>

<p>Jainey Bavishi has spent her career reimagining how cities and communities prepare for climate change. As former Deputy Administrator of NOAA and former Director of New York City’s Office of Climate Resiliency, she has led efforts to center equity, science and community leadership in climate adaptation. Her work connects national policy to neighborhood-scale action, helping shape a more just and durable approach to resilience. Bavishi holds a master’s in city planning from MIT and a bachelor’s in public policy and cultural anthropology from Duke University.</p>

Could slowing down help us better connect with our professional purpose? Join us for a 4-session book discussion on The Slow Professor: Challenging the Culture of Speed in the Academy (Berg &amp; Seeber, 2016). This short book explores how embracing principles of the “slow” movement can create a more reflective, balanced, and meaningful academic environment. The authors also present ways of alleviating stress while improving teaching, research, and collegiality. Connect with fellow instructors and share ideas for slowing down in a fast-paced academic world.</p>

<p> </p>

<p>Logistics:
<br />-Books will be provided for each participant.
<br />-To help us slow down and connect with colleagues, we will meet in-person in Tyler Hall 225.
<br />-While participation in all four sessions is preferred, we understand you may need to miss a session.</p>

<br />• Tyler A. Joseph – Global Network Planner at Hasbro</p>

<p>Hasbro’s Global Network Planning team will discuss how supply planning operates
<br />within a global organization, the importance of structured decision-making systems, and
<br />the technologies that power modern supply chains, including SAP IBP, Power BI, and
<br />enterprise analytics platforms. The discussion will bridge classroom learning with real-
<br />world execution, offering students direct exposure to leadership, strategy, and emerging
<br />technologies.</p>

<p>In addition, the AI Student Club Poster Showcase will take place in the first-floor
<br />library lobby, featuring student-led projects that demonstrate how artificial intelligence
<br />and automation are being applied across disciplines to solve complex problems.
<br />Together, these experiences embody Discovering AI at URI where innovation,
<br />experiential learning, and industry partnership intersect to prepare students for the
<br />future of work.</p>

<p>We hope you will join us for this engaging and inspiring event.</p>

<br />Date/Time/Location: March 12, 3pm, Avedisian Hall room 205. (moved from Feb 22)
<br />Title: Inherently Interpretable Deep Learning Models</p>

<p> </p>

<p>Abstract: AI models now perform high-stakes tasks traditionally reserved for skilled professionals, often surpassing human expert performance. Despite these advances, the "black box" (i.e., uninterpretable) nature of many machine learning algorithms poses significant challenges. Opaque models resist troubleshooting, cannot justify their decisions, and lack accountability—limitations that have slowed their adoption in critical workflows.
<br />My research addresses this challenge by developing interpretable deep learning models for both general tasks and specific clinical decisions in mammography and neurology. Through novel neural network architectures, objective functions, and training regimes, I create models that achieve accuracy comparable to conventional black box systems while remaining inherently interpretable. These models are constrained to provide faithful explanations for their predictions, functioning not merely as decision-makers but as decision aids that communicate their reasoning in human-understandable terms. This human-centered design enables expert users to scrutinize the model's logic, appropriately calibrate their trust, and intervene when necessary. The result is a more collaborative human-AI partnership that maintains both high performance and meaningful human oversight. </p>

<p>Speaker: Dr. Fiamma Straneo, Harvard University</p>

<p>Abstract: Kalaallit Nunaat’s (Greenland’s) glacial fjords are remote, dynamically rich coastal systems characterized by the convergence of Atlantic and Arctic waters, glaciers, icebergs, sea-ice and intense, synoptic wind-events. They are relevant for global and regional questions including ice sheet mass loss, freshening of the North Atlantic and the evolution of the rich marine ecosystems that support local communities. Since 2008, I have been returning regularly to one major fjord in Southeast Greenland to understand its dynamics, map its properties, including the biogeochemistry. Here, I present some of the main findings from the progressively deeper understanding of this single system and how we can use them to inform understanding of bigger questions ranging from ice sheet/ocean interactions to nutrient cycling in glacial environments. Finally, I will discuss the challenges and benefits of working in one place, year after year, including the partnership built with the local community and the training opportunities for early career scientists.</p>

It will introduce the basics of quantum computation with an information theoretic motivation. With a quick review of the basics of quantum mechanics we move to quantum circuits as the  programming model for quantum computation. Over the course of the semester we cover multiple quantum algorithms beginning with foundational building blocks like phase estimation, QFT and amplitude amplification. Using these fundamental algorithms we will study algorithms like Grover's search, Shor's algorithm, VQE and QAOA.</p>

The framework combines three methods: ONDSA, a false discovery rate–controlled network testing system that identifies shared and differential biological pathways across groups; MGRFusionNet, a graph-recurrent architecture that fuses molecular networks with longitudinal clinical data to capture none-linear time-dependent risk; and Trans-GCR, a transfer-learning method that adapts models trained on large biobanks to smaller clinical cohorts. In the Framingham Heart Study, MGRFusionNet outperformed conventional unimodal and naïve fusion models for predicting mortality risk, while providing interpretable insight into cross-modal biological interactions.</p>

<p> </p>

<p>Jiachen Chen is a PhD candidate in Biostatistics at the Boston University School of Public Health. Her research focuses on developing statistical and machine learning methods for integrating high-dimensional multi-omics data, with an emphasis on interpretable and generalizable models for population-based studies. Her work is motivated by aging-related applications, including frailty, cognitive decline, and dementia. She is an NIA F99/K00 Fellow, supported by the National Institute on Aging and a Boston University Center for Health Data Science Pilot Award. Her research has been published in journals including Briefings in Bioinformatics, Statistics in Medicine, Nature, JAMA Psychiatry, Alzheimer's &amp; Dementia, and Aging Cell.</p>

It will introduce the basics of quantum computation with an information theoretic motivation. With a quick review of the basics of quantum mechanics we move to quantum circuits as the  programming model for quantum computation. Over the course of the semester we cover multiple quantum algorithms beginning with foundational building blocks like phase estimation, QFT and amplitude amplification. Using these fundamental algorithms we will study algorithms like Grover's search, Shor's algorithm, VQE and QAOA.</p>

Pleasant Library at Mt. Pleasant LIbrary</title><description><![CDATA[<p>Learn how to garden using containers in this presentation taught by URI Master Gardeners! 
<br />This presentation introduces the principles and practical techniques of container gardening for a wide range of environments, including patios, balconies, small yards, and urban settings. We will explain how containers influence plant health by affecting root growth, moisture retention, drainage, and temperature, and outline how to select appropriate containers based on material, size, and intended plant type. The presentation covers soil composition and why standard garden soil is unsuitable for containers, with attention to drainage, aeration, and nutrient availability. It also addresses light requirements, watering strategies, fertilization schedules, and seasonal considerations, including how container gardens respond differently to heat, cold, and wind than in-ground plantings. Common challenges such as overwatering, nutrient depletion, and root binding are discussed, along with evidence-based methods to prevent or correct them. The session concludes with guidance on plant selection for containers, including vegetables, herbs, and ornamentals, and explains how to plan and maintain a container garden over time using repeatable, practical techniques.</p>

Recently, the need to value, recognize and use traditional knowledge from small-scale fishers (SSF) from indigenous peoples, local and afrodescendent communities has increased, as have the ethical requirements to use it. In 2025, SSF from the Caribbean and Pacific coasts of Costa Rica met in the Barra del Colorado Marine Responsible Fishing Area with academics and governmental institutions dealing with the sustainable use of ocean resources. The Barra del Colorado Declaration came to be. What does it mean and how can we move together with rightsholders in this regard? How can knowledge generation reinforce those social and environmental assets of local communities to strengthen their resilience for future needs and challenges related to the conservation and management of their marine territories of life?</p>

It will introduce the basics of quantum computation with an information theoretic motivation. With a quick review of the basics of quantum mechanics we move to quantum circuits as the  programming model for quantum computation. Over the course of the semester we cover multiple quantum algorithms beginning with foundational building blocks like phase estimation, QFT and amplitude amplification. Using these fundamental algorithms we will study algorithms like Grover's search, Shor's algorithm, VQE and QAOA.</p>

These tips can be useful, but another way to be a more effective scholar, teacher, and researcher is to reduce the stressors that can make us feel helpless and inert in the first place. In this program, we'll talk about self-care activities, how an improved mood can lead to improved productivity, and how carving out time for yourself can reduce overall burnout.</p>

It will introduce the basics of quantum computation with an information theoretic motivation. With a quick review of the basics of quantum mechanics we move to quantum circuits as the  programming model for quantum computation. Over the course of the semester we cover multiple quantum algorithms beginning with foundational building blocks like phase estimation, QFT and amplitude amplification. Using these fundamental algorithms we will study algorithms like Grover's search, Shor's algorithm, VQE and QAOA.</p>

It will introduce the basics of quantum computation with an information theoretic motivation. With a quick review of the basics of quantum mechanics we move to quantum circuits as the  programming model for quantum computation. Over the course of the semester we cover multiple quantum algorithms beginning with foundational building blocks like phase estimation, QFT and amplitude amplification. Using these fundamental algorithms we will study algorithms like Grover's search, Shor's algorithm, VQE and QAOA.</p>

NSF EPSCoR facilitates the establishment of partnerships among academic institutions, government, industry, and non-profit sectors that are designed to promote sustainable improvements in a jurisdiction's research infrastructure, Research and Development (R&amp;D) capacity, and R&amp;D competitiveness of EPSCoR-eligible jurisdictions (i.e., states, territories, and commonwealths). Eligibility to participate in the EPSCoR funding opportunities, including the EPSCoR RII: EPSCoR Research Fellows program, is described on the NSF EPSCoR website. </p>

<p> </p>

<p>EPSCoR RII: EPSCoR Research Fellows directly aligns with the NSF EPSCoR strategic goal of establishing sustainable Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics (STEM) professional development pathways that advance workforce development and effects engagement in STEM at national and global levels. EPSCoR RII: EPSCoR Research Fellows provides awards to build research capacity in institutions and transform the career trajectories of investigators and further develop their individual research potential through collaborations with investigators from the nation’s premier private, governmental, or academic research institutions and/or centers. The fellowship provides opportunities to establish strong collaborations through extended or periodic collaborative visits to a selected host site. </p>

<p> </p>

<p>Through collaborative research activities with the host site, Fellows will be able to learn new techniques, develop new collaborations, advance existing partnerships, benefit from access to unique equipment and facilities, and/or shift their research toward potentially transformative new directions. The experiences gained through the fellowships are intended to have lasting impacts that will enhance the Fellows’ research trajectories well beyond the award period. The benefits to the Fellows are also expected to improve the research capacity of their institutions and jurisdictions more broadly.  </p>

It will introduce the basics of quantum computation with an information theoretic motivation. With a quick review of the basics of quantum mechanics we move to quantum circuits as the  programming model for quantum computation. Over the course of the semester we cover multiple quantum algorithms beginning with foundational building blocks like phase estimation, QFT and amplitude amplification. Using these fundamental algorithms we will study algorithms like Grover's search, Shor's algorithm, VQE and QAOA.</p>

We open up the Bible and welcome people to ask questions, disagree or even push back as we figure out what the best life looks like in 2026. All faiths are invited, or lack thereof. We are better when people with different viewpoints discuss important topics with respect, but are able to challenge each other. </p>

A term paper, dissertation chapter, or perhaps even make a plan for using your summer break effectively? Join us for some or all of this jam session where you can bring any writing project and come work in a space with like-minded students! Coffee, tea, and light continental breakfast fare will be provided. No registration is required, but please consider signing up so we can anticipate how much food to order. If you have any questions while you're writing, a Graduate Writing &amp; Presenting Lab consultant will be available to chat with you. Please note: the area around RINEC in Providence has street parking, but there are no commuter lots for URI students. RINEC does however have its own paid parking garage at 330 Eddy Street (South Street Landing Garage) just behind the South Street Landing building on the same side. There are a few different parking garages in the area—the correct garage has large black &amp; white historical photos on the outside &amp; is located on the same side of Eddy Street as SSL. Additionally, when you arrive at RINEC, you may need to check in at the front security desk to let them know you are there to attend a writing retreat.</p>

Through this program, NSF fosters partnerships among academic institutions, government entities, industry, and non-profits. These collaborations aim to drive long-term improvements in research infrastructure, enhance R&amp;D capacity, and boost the research competitiveness of eligible EPSCoR jurisdictions, including states, territories, and commonwealths. </p>

<p> </p>

<p>A jurisdiction’s research ecosystem is the interconnected network of institutions, organizations, researchers, trainees, community stakeholders, and resources that contribute to the process of research and innovation that advances fundamental knowledge, generates use-inspired products, and ultimately cultivates beneficial societal impacts for a jurisdiction. E-RISE supports hypothesis-driven or problem-driven research and fosters the development of research teams and products in a scientific topical area that aligns with a jurisdiction’s research ecosystem and priorities, as detailed in the jurisdiction’s Science and Technology (S&amp;T) Plan or drawn from other jurisdiction plans, reports, or publications prepared by appropriate authorities or bodies.</p>

<p> </p>

<p> E-RISE invites innovative proposals within the chosen research area that will lead to development and implementation of sustainable broad networks of individuals, institutions, and organizations, and that will transform the science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM) research capacity and competitiveness in a jurisdiction. E-RISE is particularly interested in proposals that justify exploring emerging or interdisciplinary research areas with high potential impact.</p>

<p> </p>
