We have multiple groups running through the semester in a wide variety of times and days!

Students: Are you ready to become part of a team and embark on epic adventures with your fellow students? Through S.T.A.R.S., we have created a safe, supportive space for students to explore new identities, share experiences and have fun together without any pressure or agenda. No, this isn’t a sneaky therapy session! It’s all about building community through fun.

Faculty and Staff: We’re seeking staff and faculty members who are interested in volunteering as Dungeon Masters to lead our game campaigns. No prior experience is required - just a passion for storytelling and a willingness to help create a fun and inclusive experience. We will provide all the training and orientation you need to lead adventures!

If you’re interested in joining, we encourage you to fill out this brief survey to share your availability and help grow and shape this exciting new community.

SPARK Femmes is a supportive, nonjudgmental space for women and femmes who are questioning or struggling with the ways they engage with sex and/or pornography. Because these concerns can carry especially intense shame, stigma, and isolation for women and femmes, the group is designed to offer a private, affirming space where students can speak openly without fear of judgment.

Participants will have opportunities to process their experiences, explore what healthy sexuality means for them, and build practical tools for navigating urges, distress, shame, relationships, and recovery. Whether this is an issue that has only recently become concerning or something you have been navigating for a long time, SPARK Femmes will meet you where you are.

Process groups are focused on the exploration and open processing and discussion of participants. Process groups are led by one of our therapists and typically more open-ended and less structured around a specific lesson or topic for the day. Clients are required to complete a group screening to assess whether the group matches their needs and interest.

For process groups, if you are not a current or recent client, please make an appointment to get started and note your interest in group therapy. You’ll complete intake paperwork and have a 30-minute “IC” (individual consultation) with one of our therapists, and then get scheduled for a brief screening meeting with the group’s leader.

If you are a current or recent client, reach out to our Groups & Workshops Coordinator at sccgroups@utdallas.edu to schedule a screening meeting.

From the delicate bells of foxglove to the dark berries of deadly nightshade, these plants reveal a long history of experimentation, misidentification, and discovery. Detailed botanical illustrations highlight both the beauty and the danger of these plants. Presented during the fall, the exhibition draws on what might be called the plant world’s own spooky season, when familiar forms take on darker meanings and hidden risks come into focus.

The exhibition cases extend this theme beyond plants themselves. On view are 19th‑century books bound in vivid green covers now suspected to contain arsenic‑based pigments. Once fashionable and eye‑catching, these bindings represent another form of dangerous beauty, objects prized for their appearance, yet carrying risks that were poorly understood at the time.

Visitors who wish to explore this topic further are invited to join Ye Olde Book Club on 10/27/2026, in Special Collections, for a discussion of The Arsenic Century: How Victorian Britain Was Poisoned at Home, Work, and Play. Additional details are available at:

Whether you are seeking information for yourself, supporting someone else, or looking to better understand available options and resources, this training will help you navigate these processes in a safe, informed, and respectful manner.

We hope to see you there. UTD Starts with YOU!

From the delicate bells of foxglove to the dark berries of deadly nightshade, these plants reveal a long history of experimentation, misidentification, and discovery. Detailed botanical illustrations highlight both the beauty and the danger of these plants. Presented during the fall, the exhibition draws on what might be called the plant world’s own spooky season, when familiar forms take on darker meanings and hidden risks come into focus.

The exhibition cases extend this theme beyond plants themselves. On view are 19th‑century books bound in vivid green covers now suspected to contain arsenic‑based pigments. Once fashionable and eye‑catching, these bindings represent another form of dangerous beauty, objects prized for their appearance, yet carrying risks that were poorly understood at the time.

Visitors who wish to explore this topic further are invited to join Ye Olde Book Club on 10/27/2026, in Special Collections, for a discussion of The Arsenic Century: How Victorian Britain Was Poisoned at Home, Work, and Play. Additional details are available at:

Students: Are you ready to become part of a team and embark on epic adventures with your fellow students? Through S.T.A.R.S., we have created a safe, supportive space for students to explore new identities, share experiences and have fun together without any pressure or agenda. No, this isn’t a sneaky therapy session! It’s all about building community through fun.

Faculty and Staff: We’re seeking staff and faculty members who are interested in volunteering as Dungeon Masters to lead our game campaigns. No prior experience is required - just a passion for storytelling and a willingness to help create a fun and inclusive experience. We will provide all the training and orientation you need to lead adventures!

If you’re interested in joining, we encourage you to fill out this brief survey to share your availability and help grow and shape this exciting new community.

SPARK Femmes is a supportive, nonjudgmental space for women and femmes who are questioning or struggling with the ways they engage with sex and/or pornography. Because these concerns can carry especially intense shame, stigma, and isolation for women and femmes, the group is designed to offer a private, affirming space where students can speak openly without fear of judgment.

Participants will have opportunities to process their experiences, explore what healthy sexuality means for them, and build practical tools for navigating urges, distress, shame, relationships, and recovery. Whether this is an issue that has only recently become concerning or something you have been navigating for a long time, SPARK Femmes will meet you where you are.

Process groups are focused on the exploration and open processing and discussion of participants. Process groups are led by one of our therapists and typically more open-ended and less structured around a specific lesson or topic for the day. Clients are required to complete a group screening to assess whether the group matches their needs and interest.

For process groups, if you are not a current or recent client, please make an appointment to get started and note your interest in group therapy. You’ll complete intake paperwork and have a 30-minute “IC” (individual consultation) with one of our therapists, and then get scheduled for a brief screening meeting with the group’s leader.

If you are a current or recent client, reach out to our Groups & Workshops Coordinator at sccgroups@utdallas.edu to schedule a screening meeting.

SPARK Femmes is a supportive, nonjudgmental space for women and femmes who are questioning or struggling with the ways they engage with sex and/or pornography. Because these concerns can carry especially intense shame, stigma, and isolation for women and femmes, the group is designed to offer a private, affirming space where students can speak openly without fear of judgment.

Participants will have opportunities to process their experiences, explore what healthy sexuality means for them, and build practical tools for navigating urges, distress, shame, relationships, and recovery. Whether this is an issue that has only recently become concerning or something you have been navigating for a long time, SPARK Femmes will meet you where you are.

Process groups are focused on the exploration and open processing and discussion of participants. Process groups are led by one of our therapists and typically more open-ended and less structured around a specific lesson or topic for the day.

Abstract: Nodal seismometers transformed how seismologists sample the wavefield. The Sapphire, a nodal infrasound sensor developed at SMU, brings the same approach to the atmosphere above the ground. We use two dense deployments to probe both sides of the air-ground interface. On the SMU campus, a subwoofer swept 4 to 30 Hz for 24 hours into 48 sensors. treating the boundary layer as a vibroseis target, we invert travel time and amplitude independently for the near-surface sound speed gradient. Both place it 6 to 12 times steeper than a state-of-the-art reanaylsis and capture a nocturnal jet that ducts sound along one azimuth only. At NORFOX in Norway, 225 Sapphires, 60 SmartSolo nodes, and a DAS array recorded blasts 20 km awya. Infrasound couples compliantly into the ground, but DAS coupling exceeds the prediction form collacated nodes tenfold. In both cases, dense sampling reveals order-of-magnitude discrepancies that simple models cannot explain.

This seminar is part of the Dr. James Carter Lecture Series hosted by the Department of Sustainable Earth Systems Sciences.

These groups provide an opportunity for support from others who hold similar identities or life experiences. Participation is open and drop-in style, meaning members do not have to be current clients of the Student Counseling Center, and you may attend meetings as often or as seldom as you like. Support groups are open to all UTD students, and no group screening is required. Please note support groups are not the same as therapy groups in that they are more focused on building community and peer support guided by one of our therapists than in-depth therapeutic intervention.

From the delicate bells of foxglove to the dark berries of deadly nightshade, these plants reveal a long history of experimentation, misidentification, and discovery. Detailed botanical illustrations highlight both the beauty and the danger of these plants. Presented during the fall, the exhibition draws on what might be called the plant world’s own spooky season, when familiar forms take on darker meanings and hidden risks come into focus.

The exhibition cases extend this theme beyond plants themselves. On view are 19th‑century books bound in vivid green covers now suspected to contain arsenic‑based pigments. Once fashionable and eye‑catching, these bindings represent another form of dangerous beauty, objects prized for their appearance, yet carrying risks that were poorly understood at the time.

Visitors who wish to explore this topic further are invited to join Ye Olde Book Club on 10/27/2026, in Special Collections, for a discussion of The Arsenic Century: How Victorian Britain Was Poisoned at Home, Work, and Play. Additional details are available at:

SPARK Femmes is a supportive, nonjudgmental space for women and femmes who are questioning or struggling with the ways they engage with sex and/or pornography. Because these concerns can carry especially intense shame, stigma, and isolation for women and femmes, the group is designed to offer a private, affirming space where students can speak openly without fear of judgment.

Participants will have opportunities to process their experiences, explore what healthy sexuality means for them, and build practical tools for navigating urges, distress, shame, relationships, and recovery. Whether this is an issue that has only recently become concerning or something you have been navigating for a long time, SPARK Femmes will meet you where you are.

Process groups are focused on the exploration and open processing and discussion of participants. Process groups are led by one of our therapists and typically more open-ended and less structured around a specific lesson or topic for the day. Clients are required to complete a group screening to assess whether the group matches their needs and interest.

For process groups, if you are not a current or recent client, please make an appointment to get started and note your interest in group therapy. You’ll complete intake paperwork and have a 30-minute “IC” (individual consultation) with one of our therapists, and then get scheduled for a brief screening meeting with the group’s leader.

If you are a current or recent client, reach out to our Groups & Workshops Coordinator at sccgroups@utdallas.edu to schedule a screening meeting.

If perfectionism is holding you back, join our skills-based group to explore how it shows up in your life and learn more adaptive ways of managing it. Through open conversation, supportive connection, and engaging activities, you’ll have space to practice new skills and grow in a welcoming environment.

Skills-based groups are focused on building skills to help improve one’s life and tend to be based around a theme or topic (e.g., learning coping skills, distress management, improved self-compassion, etc.). This type of group is led by one of our therapists and includes a combination of both learning skills and sharing about personal experiences.

For skills-based groups, if you are not a current or recent client of the SCC, please make an appointment to get started and note your interest in group therapy. You’ll complete intake paperwork and have a 30-minute “IC” (individual consultation) with one of our therapists, and then you’ll be added to the group roster.

AI and the Copernican Revolution in Intelligence — Frontiers of BrainHealth Lecture

Robert Hunt, PhD – Professor of Mission Studies and Interreligious Dialogue, Perkins School of Theology at Southern Methodist University If intelligence can increasingly be modeled, measured, and replicated, what remains distinctive about human beings? This lecture explores how developments in neuroscience, computing, and artificial intelligence have transformed the concept of intelligence. Drawing on neuroscience, cultural history, philosophy, and emerging AI research, Robert Hunt argues that we must more clearly define the relationship between homo sapiens as an object of scientific investigation and the human person as a culturally formed subject of lived experience. That live experience now includes the nearly ubiquitous presence of AI in many forms. For teachers, clinicians and researchers working at the intersection of brain, mind and technology – the presence of AI shaping human self-understanding raises profound questions about medicine, education, ethics and the future of human identity. Host: Andrew Nevin, PhD

Frontiers of BrainHealth is a hybrid speaker series. Register for the season, and you will get a link to the virtual talks as well as available recordings. If you are interested in attending any of the talks in person, please note that you can confirm attendance when we send you a reminder email a few days prior to each talk.

Title: Skein algebras on punctured surfaces

Abstract: Skein algebras are generated by webs on thickened surfaces, subject to local skein relations that resolve crossings into simpler diagrams. In this talk, we construct a natural generalization of the Roger-Yang skein algebras, incorporating new skein relations associated with punctures on surfaces. As an application, we obtain a new quantization of the decorated higher Teichmuller spaces $\mathcal{A}_{G,S}$ introduced by Fock and Goncharov. If time permits, we will also discuss connections with the duality conjecture for cluster algebras. This is joint work in progress with Zhe Sun and Daping Weng.

From the delicate bells of foxglove to the dark berries of deadly nightshade, these plants reveal a long history of experimentation, misidentification, and discovery. Detailed botanical illustrations highlight both the beauty and the danger of these plants. Presented during the fall, the exhibition draws on what might be called the plant world’s own spooky season, when familiar forms take on darker meanings and hidden risks come into focus.

The exhibition cases extend this theme beyond plants themselves. On view are 19th‑century books bound in vivid green covers now suspected to contain arsenic‑based pigments. Once fashionable and eye‑catching, these bindings represent another form of dangerous beauty, objects prized for their appearance, yet carrying risks that were poorly understood at the time.

Visitors who wish to explore this topic further are invited to join Ye Olde Book Club on 10/27/2026, in Special Collections, for a discussion of The Arsenic Century: How Victorian Britain Was Poisoned at Home, Work, and Play. Additional details are available at:

We have multiple groups running through the semester in a wide variety of times and days!

Students: Are you ready to become part of a team and embark on epic adventures with your fellow students? Through S.T.A.R.S., we have created a safe, supportive space for students to explore new identities, share experiences and have fun together without any pressure or agenda. No, this isn’t a sneaky therapy session! It’s all about building community through fun.

Faculty and Staff: We’re seeking staff and faculty members who are interested in volunteering as Dungeon Masters to lead our game campaigns. No prior experience is required - just a passion for storytelling and a willingness to help create a fun and inclusive experience. We will provide all the training and orientation you need to lead adventures!

If you’re interested in joining, we encourage you to fill out this brief survey to share your availability and help grow and shape this exciting new community.

SPARK Femmes is a supportive, nonjudgmental space for women and femmes who are questioning or struggling with the ways they engage with sex and/or pornography. Because these concerns can carry especially intense shame, stigma, and isolation for women and femmes, the group is designed to offer a private, affirming space where students can speak openly without fear of judgment.

Participants will have opportunities to process their experiences, explore what healthy sexuality means for them, and build practical tools for navigating urges, distress, shame, relationships, and recovery. Whether this is an issue that has only recently become concerning or something you have been navigating for a long time, SPARK Femmes will meet you where you are.

Process groups are focused on the exploration and open processing and discussion of participants. Process groups are led by one of our therapists and typically more open-ended and less structured around a specific lesson or topic for the day. Clients are required to complete a group screening to assess whether the group matches their needs and interest.

For process groups, if you are not a current or recent client, please make an appointment to get started and note your interest in group therapy. You’ll complete intake paperwork and have a 30-minute “IC” (individual consultation) with one of our therapists, and then get scheduled for a brief screening meeting with the group’s leader.

If you are a current or recent client, reach out to our Groups & Workshops Coordinator at sccgroups@utdallas.edu to schedule a screening meeting.

From the delicate bells of foxglove to the dark berries of deadly nightshade, these plants reveal a long history of experimentation, misidentification, and discovery. Detailed botanical illustrations highlight both the beauty and the danger of these plants. Presented during the fall, the exhibition draws on what might be called the plant world’s own spooky season, when familiar forms take on darker meanings and hidden risks come into focus.

The exhibition cases extend this theme beyond plants themselves. On view are 19th‑century books bound in vivid green covers now suspected to contain arsenic‑based pigments. Once fashionable and eye‑catching, these bindings represent another form of dangerous beauty, objects prized for their appearance, yet carrying risks that were poorly understood at the time.

Visitors who wish to explore this topic further are invited to join Ye Olde Book Club on 10/27/2026, in Special Collections, for a discussion of The Arsenic Century: How Victorian Britain Was Poisoned at Home, Work, and Play. Additional details are available at:

SPARK Femmes is a supportive, nonjudgmental space for women and femmes who are questioning or struggling with the ways they engage with sex and/or pornography. Because these concerns can carry especially intense shame, stigma, and isolation for women and femmes, the group is designed to offer a private, affirming space where students can speak openly without fear of judgment.

Participants will have opportunities to process their experiences, explore what healthy sexuality means for them, and build practical tools for navigating urges, distress, shame, relationships, and recovery. Whether this is an issue that has only recently become concerning or something you have been navigating for a long time, SPARK Femmes will meet you where you are.

Process groups are focused on the exploration and open processing and discussion of participants. Process groups are led by one of our therapists and typically more open-ended and less structured around a specific lesson or topic for the day. Clients are required to complete a group screening to assess whether the group matches their needs and interest.

For process groups, if you are not a current or recent client, please make an appointment to get started and note your interest in group therapy. You’ll complete intake paperwork and have a 30-minute “IC” (individual consultation) with one of our therapists, and then get scheduled for a brief screening meeting with the group’s leader.

Mindset: Why What You Believe Matters More Than You Think

Alia Crum, PhD
Psychologist, Stanford University

This compelling talk offers practical insights into leveraging mindset— the beliefs and expectations we hold — as a powerful tool for personal growth, resilience and building a healthy relationship with stress. Moderated by Krys Boyd, host of KERA's Think.

How Can Mindset Improve Resilience?

Alia Crum, PhD, says science shows four ways that mindset changes how stress affects us: what we pay attention to, what we are motivated to do, what emotions we feel, and our body's physiological response.

Drawing on groundbreaking research from psychology and neuroscience, Dr. Crum shows how perceptions of stress, willpower and the body can alter biological responses and real-world outcomes. Mindset determines whether we experience stress as debilitating distress or growth-promoting eustress by shaping our attention, motivation, emotions and physiological responses. A leading researcher on mindset's powerful influence on health, performance and well-being, Dr. Crum is a Stanford psychologist whose research focuses on understanding how mindsets affect important outcomes outside the realm of medicine, in the domains of behavioral health and organizational behavior.

Watch Dr. Crum's recent interview on The Mel Robbins Podcast.

This talk is sponsored by The Encompass Group.

SPARK Femmes is a supportive, nonjudgmental space for women and femmes who are questioning or struggling with the ways they engage with sex and/or pornography. Because these concerns can carry especially intense shame, stigma, and isolation for women and femmes, the group is designed to offer a private, affirming space where students can speak openly without fear of judgment.

Participants will have opportunities to process their experiences, explore what healthy sexuality means for them, and build practical tools for navigating urges, distress, shame, relationships, and recovery. Whether this is an issue that has only recently become concerning or something you have been navigating for a long time, SPARK Femmes will meet you where you are.

Process groups are focused on the exploration and open processing and discussion of participants. Process groups are led by one of our therapists and typically more open-ended and less structured around a specific lesson or topic for the day. Clients are required to complete a group screening to assess whether the group matches their needs and interest.

For process groups, if you are not a current or recent client, please make an appointment to get started and note your interest in group therapy. You’ll complete intake paperwork and have a 30-minute “IC” (individual consultation) with one of our therapists, and then get scheduled for a brief screening meeting with the group’s leader.

If you are a current or recent client, reach out to our Groups & Workshops Coordinator at sccgroups@utdallas.edu to schedule a screening meeting.

Breakfast & Brain Health
How Can Mindset Improve Resilience?

Q&A with Stanford psychologist Alia Crum, PhD, from the Mind and Body Lab

Moderated by Dean Adam J. Woods, PhD

Recently featured on The Mel Robbins Podcast, Alia Crum, PhD, says science shows four ways that mindset changes how stress affects us: what we pay attention to, what we are motivated to do, what emotions we feel, and our body's physiological response.

Watch Dr. Crum's recent interview on The Mel Robbins Podcast.

Drawing on groundbreaking research from psychology and neuroscience, Dr. Crum shows how perceptions of stress, willpower and the body can alter biological responses and real-world outcomes. Mindset determines whether we experience stress as debilitating distress or growth-promoting eustress by shaping our attention, motivation, emotions and physiological responses. A leading researcher on mindset's powerful influence on health, performance and well-being, Dr. Crum is a Stanford psychologist whose research focuses on understanding how mindsets affect important outcomes outside the realm of medicine, in the domains of behavioral health and organizational behavior.

If perfectionism is holding you back, join our skills-based group to explore how it shows up in your life and learn more adaptive ways of managing it. Through open conversation, supportive connection, and engaging activities, you’ll have space to practice new skills and grow in a welcoming environment.

Skills-based groups are focused on building skills to help improve one’s life and tend to be based around a theme or topic (e.g., learning coping skills, distress management, improved self-compassion, etc.). This type of group is led by one of our therapists and includes a combination of both learning skills and sharing about personal experiences.

For skills-based groups, if you are not a current or recent client of the SCC, please make an appointment to get started and note your interest in group therapy. You’ll complete intake paperwork and have a 30-minute “IC” (individual consultation) with one of our therapists, and then you’ll be added to the group roster.

Abstract: Biological age is intended to capture an individual’s aging status more directly than chronological age, but in practice different epigenetic clocks often give substantially different age estimates for the same subject. We propose a rank-based framework for combining multiple epigenetic clocks to assess relative biological aging and estimate biological age. For each subject, clock-specific conditional ranks are obtained by comparing epigenetic age estimates with those of age-matched peers. These ranks are fused into a consensus aging rank and mapped back to an age scale through a calibration distribution. The approach avoids restrictive structural assumptions on raw clock outputs and is estimated using nonparametric quantile regression. Our ongoing work examines calibration, identifiability, and weighting strategies for stable fusion across clocks. We present preliminary results from simulations and an analysis of motivating DNA methylation age data from the ELEMENT study.

Brainspan: How the BrainHealth Project Can Inform Dementia Prevention — Frontiers of BrainHealth Lecture

Ian Robertson, PhD – Professor, Trinity College Dublin & Co-Leader of The BrainHealth Project, Center for BrainHealth

Our lifespans have been burgeoned but our brainspans have not kept pace. Dementia is one of the main culprits undermining what should be our most rewarding years. Most current dementia-prevention trials are labor-intensive and hence expensive and difficult to scale to the hundreds of millions who need it. The BrainHealth Project is measuring and targeting improvements in the brain health of 100,000 people over ten years using a telehealth, web-based interface and real-time remote coaching. Results from this study show sustained improvements in brain health across the adult life cycle, even in those at risk of decline. Dr. Robertson outlines potential mechanisms through which these changes could potentially reduce and even prevent dementia.

Host: Erin Venza, PhD, CCC-SLP

Frontiers of BrainHealth is a hybrid speaker series. Register for the season, and you will get a link to the virtual talks as well as available recordings. If you are interested in attending any of the talks in person, please note that you can confirm attendance when we send you a reminder email a few days prior to each talk.

About the talk

How can cinema become a form of political resistance? Ahmad Khoshniat examines how Iranian filmmakers Abbas Kiarostami, Mohsen Makhmalbaf and Jafar Panahi use silence, ambiguity and blurred boundaries between documentary and fiction to challenge dominant narratives and foreground marginalized voices. Drawing on theories of political aesthetics and intercultural cinema, he explores these directors as “internal exilic filmmakers” who developed creative strategies of resistance while working under censorship and political pressure in Iran.

About the speaker

Ahmad Khoshniat is a doctoral candidate in visual and performing arts at The University of Texas at Dallas. His research and creative practice explore experimental animation, Iranian art cinema and political aesthetics. He has presented his research at international conferences, and his films and artworks have appeared in international festivals and juried exhibitions.

Although the field has progressed substantially since then, certain early theoretical questions remain under-explored: how to efficiently synchronize self-contained, nearly reversible physical systems whose dynamics implements a computational process?

Fredkin & Toffoli (1981) envisioned ballistic reversible computational mechanisms, and Margolus (1986) considered how parallel quantum models of reversible computing could maintain a definite causal order consistently with relativistic constraints. But these early models were still rather far from practical physical realizations.

A research project pursued at Sandia National Laboratories from 2016–2026 investigated how to make progress by physically realizing reversible computation within a novel quasi-asynchronous model implemented using ballistic transport of flux solitons in Josephson junction (JJ) circuits. This effort culminated with a workable physical design for a (nearly) reversible, computation-universal switch gate primitive.

In this talk, we review this line of work, and discuss its potential applications to quantum computing, including abstract quantum extensions of the theoretical model, as well as potential applications of the classical JJ electronic implementations for control, error correction and readout functionality in engineered quantum computing systems.
