From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Every year, the New York University Tandon School of Engineering hosts the Lynford Lecture Series which brings in a prominent thinker who explains complex information and important ideas with clarity and concision. The lecture series is sponsored by Tondra and Jeffrey Lynford and the School of Engineering's Institute for Mathematics and Advanced Supercomputing (IMAS).[1] As of 2016, the lecture series featured three Nobel Prize winners, one Turing Award winner and alumnus of the School of Engineering, the inventor of Ethernet, a nominee of the Democratic Party for President of the United States, a top American nuclear scientist, and the co-founder and Chief Scientist of Sun Microsystems, among others.[2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9]
