SUMMARY:Physics & Engineering Physics Lecture
DESCRIPTION:Yacine Ali-Haimoud\, Ph.D.\, assistant professor\, Department of Physics\, New York University\, will present\, “Hunting for Dark Matter in the Early Universe.” \nIt is now well-established that a large part of the matter in the universe is some substance that appears to be oblivious to any force but gravity. The nature of this “dark matter” remains a mystery—and is one of the most important questions in modern physics. Could it be a new particle\, as light as an electron\, or might it be made of black holes as massive as many suns? \nIn this talk\, Ali-Haimoud will start by giving a brief overview of modern cosmology\, focusing on the cosmic microwave background (CMB). He will then explain how cosmologists can be so sure about the presence and amount of dark matter\, and illustrate how precise measurements of the frequency spectrum and angular fluctuations of the CMB can help shed light on the nature and properties of dark matter. Ali-Haimoud will discuss CMB tests of feeble dark matter interactions with photons\, electrons\, and nuclei\, as well as the signatures of accreting primordial black holes as a potential dark matter candidate.

SUMMARY:A Bronx Tale: Building a Career in the Credit Markets\, Fireside Chat with Bob O’Shea\, Moderated by Michael Gatto
DESCRIPTION:Bob O’Shea was the quintessential Fordham student. A scrappy kid from New Jersey\, his grandmother worked as a maid at the Waldorf Astoria in midtown Manhattan\, his father was a New York City cop\, and he himself was accepted to Fordham on a track and field scholarship. O’Shea’s success on Wall Street is the epitome of the American dream. Michael Gatto\, an adjunct professor at Fordham\, will be interviewing O’Shea about his meteoric rise on Wall Street. O’Shea was offered partnership at Goldman Sachs at age 29\, making him the second-youngest partner in the firm’s history. Then\, as a second act\, O’Shea co-founded Silver Point Capital\, a credit and special situations hedge fund\, in 2002. He subsequently grew the firm from $120 million in assets under management to $15 billion. \nProfessor Gatto will ask O’Shea to speak about several topics\, including his career and the things that made him so successful\, his views of the current credit markets\, and his advice for students and young professionals on how to build a successful career in credit. \nAgenda\n12 p.m.: Welcome Remarks: Donna Rapaccioli\, dean\, Gabelli School of Business \n12:05 p.m.: Speaker Introductions: Father Joseph M. McShane\, S.J. \n12:10 p.m.: Discussion: Bob O’Shea and Michael Gatto \n12:45 p.m.: Audience Q&A \n1 p.m.: Closing Remarks: Donna Rapaccioli \nAbout the Speakers\nO’Shea is co-founder and chairman of Silver Point Capital\, a private investment firm\, founded in 2002 and focused on credit and special situation investing throughout credit cycles. O’Shea was co-CEO at the firm from 2002 until 2011 at which time he became chairman. Today\, Silver Point manages more than $15 billion of assets under management across hedge fund\, private equity\, and direct lending strategies. Headquartered in Greenwich\, Connecticut\, the firm has approximately 180 employees\, including more than 60 investment professionals. \nPrior to founding Silver Point\, O’Shea worked at Goldman Sachs for 10 years. He joined Goldman in 1990 to found and build the firm’s global bank loan business. During his tenure at Goldman Sachs\, in addition to building the global bank loan business\, he also became the global head of the high yield business unit\, leading the firm’s high-yield bond and bank loan underwriting\, trading\, sales\, capital markets and research\, and the collateralized debt obligation (CDO) business. O’Shea was a member of Goldman’s risk committee\, which was responsible for managing the firm’s global risk exposure. He was also on the board of Goldman Sachs international bank and senior traders committee. He was elected general partner in 1994. Prior to working at Goldman Sachs\, he worked at Bear Stearns in the high yield department and Security Pacific Bank in the Merchant Banking Group. O’Shea graduated from Fordham University with a B.S. in finance. \nGatto was one of the first employees at Silver Point Capital\, a credit-focused hedge fund. After joining the firm in April 2002\, he became the first non-founding partner in January 2003. He has helped grow the business from $120 million of assets under management in 2002 to approximately $15 billion currently. Today\, he is the head of the firm’s private side businesses. Prior to joining Silver Point\, Gatto worked at Goldman Sachs as a senior member within the special situations investing business. \nGatto has served on numerous boards\, which have included specialty retailer Party City and New Cotai Holdings (a Macau gaming company)\, and he was chairman of the board of Quinn Industries\, an Irish Industrial company.

SUMMARY:2021 Anastasi Lecture: “(Predicting) Replication Outcomes”
DESCRIPTION:Professor Anna Dreber\, Stockholm School on Economics\, will deliver the 2021 Anastasi Lecture\, titled “(Predicting) Replication Outcomes.” \nhttps://fordham.zoom.us/j/88605480413?pwd=M3Y1R3I2TmNSZmViQnRqWTFsTDliQT09 \nWhich results can we “trust?” What share of results are replicated in different kinds of literature in the experimental social sciences? I will discuss several recent\, large replication projects\, mainly in psychology and economics\, in which my coauthors and I have redone experiments published in high-impact journals with new and larger samples to see whether the main result replicates. I will also discuss our studies on “wisdom-of-crowds” mechanisms\, such as prediction markets and forecasting surveys in which researchers attempt to predict these replication outcomes\, as well as new outcomes. While the replications are mainly on experiments\, there are reasons to believe that the problems are worse in nonexperimental work. I will also discuss ways to increase the reliability of scientific results.

SUMMARY:Centennial Speaker Series: Ted Seides on Capital Allocators: How the World's Elite Money Managers Lead and Invest
DESCRIPTION:The chief endowment officers at foundations\, family offices\, pension funds\, and sovereign wealth funds are the leaders in the world of finance. They marshal trillions of dollars on behalf of their institutions and influence how capital flows throughout the world. But these elite investors live outside of the public eye. Across the entire investment industry\, few participants understand how these holders of the keys to the kingdom allocate their time and their capital. What’s more\, there is no formal training for how to do their work. \nSo\, how do these influential leaders practice their craft? What skills do they require? What frameworks do they employ? How do they make investment decisions on everything from hiring managers to portfolio construction? \nJoin us for an afternoon webinar between author Ted Seides as he discusses his new book\, Capital Allocators\, with Jonathan Brolin\, founder and managing partner of Edenbrook Capital LLC\, on this opaque corner of the investment landscape. \nAgenda\n12 p.m.: Welcome Remarks: Paul Johnson\, finance professor\, founding partner and investment manager\, Nicusa Capital Partners \n12:05 p.m.: Speaker Introduction: Jonathan Brolin\, founder and managing partner of Edenbrook Capital LLC \n12:08 p.m.: Discussion: Ted Seides \n12:45 p.m.: Audience Q&A \n1 p.m.: Closing Remarks: Paul Johnson \nAbout the Speakers\nTed Seides created Capital Allocators LLC to explore best practices in the asset management industry. He launched the Capital Allocators podcast in 2017\, and the show reached 6 million downloads in June 2021. Brunswick Group named it the top institutional investing podcast\, and Barron’s\, Business Insider\, Forbes\, and ValueWalk each named it among the top investing podcasts. Alongside the podcast\, Seides advises both managers and allocators\, compounding his knowledge and relationships to help them make more money. In March\, he published his second book\, Capital Allocators: How the World’s Elite Money Managers Lead and Invest\, which distills key lessons from the first 150 episodes of the podcast. \nJonathan Brolin is the founder and managing partner of Edenbrook Capital LLC\, which he founded in 2011. Edenbrook takes a private equity approach to public markets\, principally through concentrated\, long-term investments in small- and mid-cap companies. This approach involves identifying equities that are undervalued on a fundamental basis\, performing intensive research on companies and industries\, understanding existing and potential levers for creating value\, and collaborating with management teams and/or other constituents to unlock shareholder value over a multiyear period. Brolin currently serves on the board of directors of Frequency Electronics Inc. and CXO Nexus Inc. \nBrolin has 25 years of experience in public and private equity investing and investment banking. In addition\, he serves as a fellow at the Gabelli Center for Global Security Analysis and taught Advanced Topics in Value Investing for seven years as an adjunct professor of finance at the Gabelli School of Business. He earned his M.B.A. from Columbia Business School\, where he was a member of the Beta Gamma Sigma honor society. Brolin earned his B.A. from the University of Pennsylvania\, where he was a Benjamin Franklin scholar and general honors student. When he’s not searching for value\, he can be found watching\, coaching\, playing\, or thinking about baseball. \nCopies of Capital Allocators will be raffled off to attendees. \nThis event is co-sponsored with the CFA Society New York\, the Gabelli Center for Global Security Analysis\, and the Museum of American Finance.

SUMMARY:Physics & Engineering Physics Lecture
DESCRIPTION:Javad Shabani\, Ph.D.\, assistant professor of physics at New York University\, will present “Towards Topological Superconductivity in Epitaxial Superconductor-Semiconductor Materials System.” \nA central goal in condensed matter physics is to understand and control the order parameter characterizing the collective state of electrons in quantum heterostructures. For example\, new physical behaviors can emerge that are absent in the isolated constituent materials. With regards to superconductivity\, this has opened a whole new area of investigation in the form of topological superconductivity. This type of superconductivity is expected to host exotic\, quasi-particle excitations\, including Majorana bound states that hold promise for fault-tolerant quantum computing. \nIn this talk\, we first discuss the important role of epitaxial superconductor-semiconductor hybrid systems as an enabling materials platform. We present unprecedented values of transparency and induced gap that could allow us to reach into previously unexplored parameter regimes. In wide Josephson junctions exposed to a magnetic field\, we observe a minimum of critical current accompanied with a phase jump in the superconducting phase. We discuss this observation as a signature of a transition between trivial and topological superconductivity. These findings\, in addition to new directions in approximating edge modes\, reveal a versatile two-dimensional platform to explore mesoscopic and topological superconductivity.

SUMMARY:Jewish Studies and Black Studies in Dialogue Series: Searching for Zion—Black Emigration to Haiti and the Elusive Quest for American Citizenship
DESCRIPTION:In the 19th century\, as the enslavement of African Americans was expanding on the North American mainland\, many free African Americans left the United States and sailed for Haiti\, the first Black republic in the Atlantic world created in the aftermath of the Haitian Revolution (1791-1804)\, where slavery was abolished. This transnational migration from the center of the white Herrenvolk (Jacksonian) democracy to the so-called Black republic offered a chance to redefine the boundaries of citizenship and equality in the Atlantic order. \nDuring this lecture\, Westenley Alcenat\, Fordham University\, and Derek Penslar\, Harvard University\, examine how Black nationalists of this period operated between transnational politics and trans-Atlantic Black liberation movements to reimagine the act of exodus and that of return as a continuous search for redefining nationhood and citizenship. Black emigration to Haiti exposed comparative tensions and conflicting ideals of race and citizenship in the Age of Revolutions (1776-1848). The lecture spotlights the ideology of one of these emigrants in particular: Black abolitionist Prince Saunders\, who strategically deployed Black emigration as one of the earliest transatlantic efforts on behalf of African American citizenship before the Civil War era. \nAbout the Speakers\nAlcenat is a 19th-century historian of the U.S and Caribbean who teaches at Fordham. His scholarship covers the shared histories of African Americans and Afro-Caribbean people in connection with the wider African diaspora in the Atlantic world. His manuscript in revision\, “Children of Africa\, Shall Be Haytians: Prince Saunders and the Foundations of Black Emigration to Haiti\, 1775-1865\,” is a study of the radicalism and ideologies of African American settlers who emigrated to Haiti in the antebellum era. Alcenat is a past recipient of the Richard Hofstadter Fellowship from Columbia University. He has been awarded fellowships from the Library Company of Philadelphia\, the Massachusetts Historical Society\, the Hoover Institute’s Library and Archives\, the Woodrow Wilson Foundation\, the Social Science Research Council-Mellon Mays Graduate Initiative Grants\, the Gilder Lehrman Institute of American History\, and the Schomburg Center for Research in African-American Culture. \nFrom 2015 to 2016\, he was a visiting scholar at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology and a visiting associate fellow at the Weatherhead Initiative on Global History at Harvard University. Before arriving to Princeton\, he was a residential postdoctoral research associate at the Gilder Lehrman Center for the Study of Slavery\, Resistance\, and Abolition at Yale University’s MacMillan Center. Alcenat has written or provided commentary for The Jacobin Magazine\, Theroot.com\, and The Immanent Frame. He is also a contributing guest writer for the Black Perspectives Blog\, the official publication of the African American Intellectual History Society. \nPenslar is the William Lee Frost Professor of Jewish History at Harvard University. He previously taught at Indiana University\, the University of Toronto\, and Oxford University\, where he was the inaugural holder of the Stanley Lewis Chair in Modern Israel Studies. Penslar takes a comparative and transnational approach to Jewish history\, which he studies within the contexts of modern capitalism\, nationalism\, and colonialism. Penslar’s books include Shylock’s Children: Economics and Modern Identity in Modern Europe (2001)\, Israel in History: The Jewish State in Comparative Perspective (2006)\, The Origins of the State of Israel: A Documentary History (with Eran Kaplan\, 2011)\, Jews and the Military: A History (2013)\, and Theodor Herzl: The Charismatic Leader (2020). He is currently completing a book titled Zionism: An Emotional State\, and is beginning work on a global history of the 1948 Israeli–Palestinian conflict. Penslar is president of the American Academy for Jewish Research\, a fellow of the Royal Society of Canada\, and an honorary fellow of St. Anne’s College\, Oxford.

SUMMARY:Film Screening: The Dove Flyer (Farewell Baghdad)
DESCRIPTION:Join us for a screening of The Dove Flyer (Farewell Baghdad)\, followed by a discussion between language instructors Mohamed A. Alsiadi and Hagit Galor Halperin\, and Ahuva Keren. They will discuss the making of the film\, the heritage of Iraqi Jewry\, and the memories that Iraqi Jews brought with them from Iraq to Israel and beyond. \nThe Dove Flyer (Farewell Baghdad) is an Israeli film\, written and directed by Nissim Dayan\, based on a novel by Iraqi-born Jewish author Eli Amir. Ahuva Keren translated the film into the Iraqi dialect of Judeo-Arabic\, which is\, like other Judeo languages (besides Yiddish)\, a dying language\, with the passing of those Jews who moved out of Iraq. To date\, The Dove Flyer is still the first and only Judeo-Arabic-language film. \nThrough the eyes of a 16-year-old Jewish boy\, we follow the last days of the Baghdadi Jewish community of the early 1950s on the eve of the immigration of almost all of that community to Israel during Operation Ezra and Nehemiah. It is set in a period in which the kingdom of Iraq was torn between nationalism and community and was struggling to overcome its defeat in the 1948 Arab-Israeli War. The Jewish community in Baghdad\, considered the oldest diaspora outside of Israel\, amounted at the time to about a quarter of the population of Baghdad. Its members grappled with their historical and cultural connection to Iraq\, the growing support of their young ones for the communist movement\, and their solidarity with the new State of Israel and Zionism. \nAbout the Speakers \nKeren is a well-respected and veteran TV and film actress in Israel. She graduated from the theater art program at Tel Aviv University and at the Nissan Nativ Acting Studio. She is also a graduate of the personal training course at Tel Aviv University. Since 1973\, Keren has held numerous roles in theaters in Israel\, working with Israeli and foreign directors in Israel’s leading theaters: Habima\, The Cameri\, Beit Lessin\, the Khan\, and Beer Sheva. In 2014\, Keren initiated the production of The Dove Flyer. She translated the script into the Iraqi language\, served as a dialogue coach for the actors who did not speak the language\, and played the role of Naimah. Currently\, in addition to her acting\, Keren teaches acting\, preparing students to be in front of the camera\, coaching\, and working with artists and actors. \nAlsiadi received his B.A. from the Damascus Music Conservatory\, where he specialized in oud performance and conducting orchestras. A regular at international festivals as a soloist and chamber musician\, Alsiadi has performed at the Royal Conservatory in Toronto\, the national auditorium in Madrid\, the historic Nidaros Cathedral in Norway\, GUST University in Kuwait\, and Merkin Hall in New York City. Other highlights include performances with the Malek Jandali Trio at the Vienna Konserthaus\, Carnegie Hall\, the Sydney Opera House\, and the Skoll World Forum. He is also founder of the Aleppo Ensemble\, with whom he has led several concert series and festivals on Arabic music\, including the Richmond Folk Festival. As a music researcher and historian\, he has developed an extensive and exceptionally varied catalog of Arabic music recordings\, which are archived at Rutgers University. He is an expert on song forms central to Middle Eastern music\, namely the Arabic-sung poetry called qasida\, and the Aleppian Wasla\, a song form that is one of the foundations of Syrian songs. \nAlsiadi was born and raised in Aleppo\, Syria\, and he migrated to New York City in 1996\, becoming a professor of Arabic language\, literature\, and culture. He is currently the lead professor and director of the Arabic studies program at Fordham University\, and he is the chair of the U.S.-MidEast program at the Center for the Study of Genocide and Human Rights at Rutgers University. He is regularly interviewed on TV and radio for a wide range of media sources\, including PBS\, HuffPost LIVE\, Al Jazeera\, ABC\, CBS\, and Great Decisions in Foreign Policy. \nHalperin holds a master’s degree in Jewish art and visual culture from JTS\, as well as a bachelor’s degree in restoration from the Fashion Institute of Technology in New York. She holds an art teaching certificate from Ha’Midrashah Le’Amanut\, an Israeli college for art education. Currently\, Halperin teaches Hebrew at Fordham University\, Dwight International High School\, and JTS’s Ivry Prozdor program. Halperin has been leading tours in Hebrew at museums around New York\, mainly for Ha-Ulpan students\, since 2006. Halperin’s parents immigrated to Israel from Iraq before she was born.

SUMMARY:Physics & Engineering Physics Seminar
DESCRIPTION:John Gustafson\, FCRH ’16\, and Dan Wines\, FCRH ’17\, will present\, “The Physics Ph.D. Experience at UMBC: A Fordham Alumni Journey.” This talk will present an overview of the physics Ph.D. program at the University of Maryland Baltimore County (UMBC). UMBC is a mid-sized research university located in the Maryland metropolitan area\, and the physics department encompasses research in areas of condensed matter\, astrophysics\, quantum information/optics\, and atmospheric physics. \nWines and Gustafson are current Ph.D. candidates set to begin NRC postdoctoral fellowships in 2022. In addition to a department overview and personal accounts of the graduate student experience\, they will present their respective computational and experimental research on 2D materials. Wines uses powerful computational resources to obtain the electronic\, magnetic\, and mechanical properties of 2D materials\, with such tools as density functional theory (DFT) and Quantum Monte Carlo (QMC) to discover and engineer new materials for energy applications. Gustafson will speak about light-matter interactions on the sub-picosecond scale. The main thrust of his work involves using an optical-pump THz-probe technique called time-resolved terahertz spectroscopy (TRTS) to study the electronic properties of 2D materials\, fully characterizing a material’s photoconductivity. By sharing their Ph.D. journey\, they hope to promote the graduate physics program at UMBC and hope to attract future applicants.

SUMMARY:Centennial Speaker Series: Michael Mauboussin on Expectations Investing: Reading Stock Prices for Better Returns
DESCRIPTION:Most investment books try to assess the attractiveness of a stock price by estimating the value of the company. Expectations Investing\, by Michael Mauboussin and Alfred Rappaport\, provides a powerful and insightful alternative to identifying gaps between price and value. The authors suggest that an investor start with a known quantity\, the stock price\, and ask what it implies for future financial results. After showing how to read expectations\, they provide a guide to rigorous strategic and financial analysis to help investors assess the likelihood of revisions to these expectations. \nInvestors who read this book will be able to evaluate stocks of companies in any sector or geography more effectively than those who use the standard approaches of most investors. This revised and updated edition reflects the many changes in accounting and the business landscape since the book was first published\, and provides a wealth of new examples and case studies. \nAgenda\n12 p.m.: Welcome Remarks: Sris Chatterjee\, chair\, Gabelli Center for Global Security Analysis \n12:03 p.m.: Speaker Introductions: David Cowen\, president and CEO\, Museum of American Finance \n12:08: p.m.: Presentation: Michael Mauboussin \n12:45 p.m.: Audience Q&A \n1 p.m.: Closing Remarks: David Cowen \nAbout the Speaker\nMichael J. Mauboussin is head of Consilient Research at Counterpoint Global\, Morgan Stanley Investment Management. He is an adjunct professor of finance at Columbia Business School. In addition to Expectations Investing\, his books include More Than You Know: Finding Financial Wisdom in Unconventional Places (Columbia\, updated and expanded edition\, 2007); Think Twice: Harnessing the Power of Counterintuition (2009); and The Success Equation: Untangling Skill and Luck in Business\, Sports and Investing (2012). \nCopies of Expectations Investing will be raffled off to attendees. \nThis event is co-sponsored with the CFA Society New York\, the Gabelli Center for Global Security Analysis\, and the Museum of American Finance.

SUMMARY:The Weight of Air: A Conversation with Addiction Expert David Poses
DESCRIPTION:Please join us for a night of conversation between critically acclaimed author\, speaker\, activist\, and addiction expert David Poses and Graduate School of Social Service Assistant Professor Sameena Azhar\, Ph.D. \nTopics of Discussion \n\nIncreasing overdose rates through the pandemic\nAvailability of buprenorphine vs. methadone\nDecriminalization of substance use\nRole of Big Pharma in perpetuating opioid addiction\n\nThere will be time at the end for a Q&A session with the audience. \nAbout the Speaker\nPoses is focused on evidence-based addiction treatment\, drug policy\, and harm reduction. His writing has been published by the Washington Post\, the Los Angeles Times\, and New York Daily News (among others)\, and he’s appeared on various TV and radio shows and podcasts. He is the author of The Weight of Air: A Story of the Lies about Addiction and the Truth about Recovery. It is a memoir of a double life\, fueled by addiction and mental illness. \nDepression was Poses’ gateway to heroin/opioid addiction. He started using at 16 and kept his struggle hidden long after he got sober with buprenorphine at age 32. Ten years later\, in 2018\, he realized his silence was working against the changes he wanted to see in the world. How could he expect anyone else to talk openly about their addiction or mental health issues if he denied his?

SUMMARY:GSS Continuing Education: Choice in Dying: Current Legal\, Policy\, and Ethical Issues
DESCRIPTION:Many patients\, particularly at the end of life\, do not receive quality care. Palliative and hospice care are not often provided in a timely manner\, if at all. Additionally\, the health care wishes of patients are often not honored\, thus dying patients may receive interventions they never wanted. Patients who experience intolerable suffering may not know of options that could reduce their suffering and allow them to die with dignity\, in accordance with their values and wishes. In order to make informed decisions about end-of-life care\, patients must be given information about the expected benefits and burdens of proposed interventions—as well as the consequences of changing the focus of care to comfort. Social workers can play an important role as catalysts for better quality care for patients at the end of life to ensure that their health care wishes are respected. \nCompletion of this class will result in the receipt of four (4) continuing education hours.

SUMMARY:Physics & Engineering Physics Colloquium
DESCRIPTION:Faye McNeill\, Ph.D.\, professor of chemical engineering at Columbia University\, will present “The Air We Breathe: Airborne Transmission of COVID and Air Quality.” \nSince late 2019\, severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) has spread globally\, causing a pandemic (‘coronavirus disease 2019’ or COVID-19) with dire consequences\, including widespread death\, long-term illness\, and societal and economic disruption. Although initially uncertain\, evidence is now overwhelming that SARS-CoV-2 is transmitted primarily through respiratory droplets and aerosols emitted by infected individuals at close to medium range. As a result\, many effective nonpharmaceutical interventions for slowing virus transmission operate by blocking\, filtering\, or diluting respiratory aerosol\, particularly in indoor environments. McNeill will discuss the evidence for airborne transmission of SARS-CoV-2 and other pathogens\, and implications for engineering solutions to reduce transmission risk. McNeill will also discuss the recent efforts of the Columbia Clean Air Toolbox for Cities Initiative toward improving air quality in cities across the Global South.
