• "Here Comes the Sun:" Solar Energy Storage by Green Hydrogen

  Jun 11

  9:00AM – 10:00AM

  Loria Center | Room: 250 — 190 York St.

  Shu Hu, Assistant Professor of Chemical & Environmental Engineering

  One hour of sunlight reaching the earth equals one year of global energy usage. We now use solar energy at a global scale: some states even produce over 90% of electricity from sunlight, but only occasionally. The main challenge now is to store the solar energy from a hot summer day for later use in cold winter, that is, long-duration storage. Professor Hu's group makes novel materials that directly store solar energy in the form of carbon-free green hydrogen at scale. The stored hydrogen is not just fuel; it is a useful chemical for synthesizing fertilizers, producing steel, and upgrading petroleum.

• Fighting Cancer with the Immune System

  Jun 11

  9:00AM – 10:00AM

  Linsly-Chittenden Hall | Room: 102 — 63 High Street

  Dr. Roy S. Herbst '84, '84 M.S., Ensign Professor of Medicine; Chief of Medical Oncology; Deputy Director for Clinical Affairs, Yale Cancer Center and Smilow Cancer Hospital. Assistant Dean for Translational Research, Yale School of Medicine

  Dr. Eric P. Winer '78, '83 MED, Alfred Gilman Professor of Medicine and Pharmacology; Director of the Yale Cancer Center; Physician-in-Chief Smilow Cancer Network; President of the American Society of Clinical Oncology

  Discovery of the programmed death pathway, a key player in immune evasion by cancer cells, led to new drugs targeting key immune regulators and revolutionized treatment for many cancer types. Still, better understanding of cancer biology and continued identification of predictive markers of sensitivity and resistance remain critical. New concepts and approaches under way at Yale Cancer Center will be discussed by Dr. Herbst with a focus on target validation and drug discovery. Dr. Winer has devoted his career to breat cancer treatment and research, and has developed new treatment approaches for individuals with breast cancer. He will speak about breast cancer resaerch and the future of cancer treatment more broadly.

• Free Speech Absolutism

  Jun 11

  9:00AM – 10:00AM

  Yale University Art Gallery | Room: McNeil Lecture Hall — 1111 Chapel Street

  Jason Stanley, Jacob Urowski Profesor of Philosophy

  According to free speech absolutism, the harm done by regulating speech is always worse than the harm of the speech being regulated. Laying out the main arguments for free speech absolutism, I will argue that none are convincing, and draw some morals.
