Please note this event begins at 1pm and ends at 2pm. The Ludwig Princeton Distinguished Lectureship features world class cancer researchers. Jeff Rathmell, leading cancer immunologist from Vanderbilt University, will present his talk "Metabolic Control of Immunotherapy and Inflammation." T cells in tumors and other inflamed tissues accumulate signs of stress and mitochondrial damage that affect cell metabolism but remain poorly understood. The metabolism of T cells and other immune cells is dynamically regulated and influences biosynthesis, signaling, and cell fate. We have shown that CD4 T cell subsets are metabolically distinct and that each requires a specific metabolic program for their function. Immune cells do not act in isolation, however, and are subject to systems and microenvironmental factors that shape their metabolism and function. On a systemic level, obesity leads to a state of chronic inflammation and is a risk factor for cancer incidence and progression. However, cancer immunotherapy can be enhanced in obesity in the cancer-obesity paradox. We have shown that induction of the immune checkpoint molecule PD-1 on tumor associated macrophages contributes to this paradox and immunotherapy responses in obese individuals. At a microenvironmental level, tissue temperature changes with body location, fever, and inflammation. We tested the effects of elevated temperatures found that T cells broadly become more pro-inflammatory but a subset of CD4 T cells, Th1 cells, selectively experience mitochondrial stress that activates a heat-sensitive molecular circuit to shape T cell fate. The metabolic interaction of immune cells with their environment can both drive disease and offer new therapeutic opportunities.

Bamako is a 2006 film directed by Abderrahmane Sissako, first released at the 2006 Cannes Film Festival on 21 May and in Manhattan by New Yorker Films on 14 February 2007. The film depicts a trial taking place in Bamako, the capital of Mali, amid the daily life that is going on in the city. In the midst of that trial, two sides argue whether the World Bank and International Monetary Fund are guided by special interest of developed nations, or whether it is corruption and the individual nations' mismanagement, that is guilty of the current financial state of many poverty-stricken African countries as well as the rest of the poor undeveloped world. The film even touches on European colonization and discusses how it plays a role in shaping African societies and their resulting poverty and issues.

Malês portrays the difficult living conditions of Black men and women in 19th-century Bahia, fighting against extreme racism, poverty, and religious intolerance. The film features a prominent cast, including Rocco and Camila Pitanga, Wilson Rabelo, Bukassa Kabengele, Samira Carvalho, Rodrigo de Odé, Heraldo de Deus, and Patricia Pillar, along with the director Antonio Pitanga. The script is written by Manuela Dias, and the cinematography is by Pedro Farkas. The film, based on historical facts, depicts the Malês Revolt, the largest organized uprising by enslaved people in Brazilian history. The insurrection mobilized the enslaved and free Black population through the streets of Salvador against slavery in 1835. Led by Muslim Africans, called Malês, the rebellion took place at the end of Ramadan, celebrated in January by Islam. After the revolt’s failure, the demonstrators were severely punished, and repression against Black people in Brazil increased. In the feature, Antonio Pitanga plays Pacífico Licutan, one of the leaders of the uprising, who emphasized the importance of participation from different tribes and religions for the revolt’s success and the end of slavery. The film also presents other participants of the revolt, such as Anuna (Rodrigo dos Santos), Manuel Calafate (Bukassa Kabengele), Vitério Sule (Heraldo de Deus), and Luis Sanim (Thiago Justino), along with fictional characters who portray real-life dramas, such as Dassalu (Rocco Pitanga), Sabina (Camila Pitanga), and Abayome (Samira Carvalho).

Zosha Di Castri, a Canadian “composer of riotously inventive works” (The New Yorker), currently lives in New York. Her music has been performed across Canada, the United States, South America, Asia, and Europe and extends beyond purely concert music, including projects with electronics, sound arts, and collaborations with video and dance that encourage audiences to feel “compelled to return for repeated doses” (The Arts Desk). She is currently the Francis Goelet Associate Professor of Music at Columbia University and a 2023 American Academy of Arts and Letters Goddard Lieberson fellow. Zosha’s current projects include a large chamber work commissioned by the LA Phil and conducted by John Adams, receiving its premiere in spring 2024; a Koussevitzky commission from the Library of Congress for percussionist Steve Schick and ensemble, and upcoming collaborations with the Bozzini Quartet and Ensemble Paramirabo/Totem. Zosha recently curated an event showcasing her work as part of the New York Philharmonic’s 2023 Nightcap series. Her 2022 work, In the Half-Light, a song cycle for soprano Barbara Hannigan, with libretto by Tash Aw, was premiered by the Toronto Symphony Orchestra and will be performed again this season by the Montreal Symphony Orchestra. Other recent projects include We live the opposite daring for six voices written for Ekmeles, time>>T. - - I. - - M.(time) - - E, a commission for largechamber ensemble premiered by the Grossman Ensemble in Chicago; Hypha, a quartet for clarinet, violin, cello, and piano/keyboard commissioned by the Chamber Music Society of Lincoln Center; and Pentimento, a short piece for orchestra commissioned by the WDR Sinfonieorchester for its 75th anniversary. In July 2019, Zosha’s Long Is the Journey, Short Is the Memory for orchestra and chorus opened the first night of the BBC Proms at Royal Albert Hall, conducted by Karina Canellakis with the BBC Symphony and BBC Singers. Other large-scale projects include a 25-minute piece for soprano, recorded narrator and orchestra entitled Dear Life, based on a short-story by Alice Munro, and an evening-length new music theater piece, Phonobellow, co-written with David Adamcyk for the International Contemporary Ensemble with performances in New York and Montreal. Phonobellow features five musicians, a large kinetic sound sculpture, electronics, and video in a reflection on the influence of photography and phonography on human perception. Zosha’s orchestral compositions have been commissioned by John Adams, the Toronto Symphony, the San Francisco Symphony, New World Symphony, Esprit Orchestra, the National Arts Centre Orchestra, the Orchestre symphonique de Montréal, and the BBC, and have been featured by the the New York Philharmonic, Tokyo Symphony, Amazonas Philharmonic, The Philadelphia Orchestra, and the Cabrillo Festival Orchestra, among others. She has made appearances with the Chicago Symphony, the LA Philharmonic, and the San Francisco Contemporary Music Players in their chamber music series, and has worked with many leading new music groups, including Talea Ensemble, Wet Ink Ensemble, Ekmeles, Yarn/Wire, the NEM, Ensemble Cairn, and JACK and Parker Quartets. Other recent projects include a commission titled Hunger for the Orchestre symphonique de Montréal with improvised drummer, designed to accompany Peter Foldes’ 1973 eponymous silent film; a string quartet for the Banff International String Quartet Competition; a piece for Yarn/Wire for two pianists, two percussionists, and electronics premiered at Zosha’s Miller Theatre Composer Portrait concert; a solo piano work for Julia Den Boer commissioned by the Yvar Mikhashoff Trust Fund, and a string octet premiered by JACK Quartet and Parker Quartet at the Banff Centre. She was the recipient of the Jules Léger Prize for New Chamber Music for her work Cortège in 2012, and participated in Ircam’s Manifeste Festival in Paris, writing an interactive electronic work for Thomas Hauert’s dance company, ZOO. Zosha’s debut album Tachitipo was released on New Focus Recordings in November 2019 to critical acclaim, and the title track was nominated for The JUNO Awards’ 2021 Classical Composition of the Year. Tachitipo was named in Best of 2019 lists by The New Yorker, I Care if You Listen, AnEarful, Sequenza21, and New York Music Daily, and praised as “a formidable statement. It is so comprehensively realized, institutionally ratified, and sensitive to the creative exigencies of the 21st century that one wants to send a copy of it to the publishers of textbooks for music history survey courses in the hope that it will be included in a last chapter or two.” (I Care if You Listen) Zosha is a recipient of the 2021 Guggenheim Fellowship and was an inaugural fellow at the Institute for Ideas and Imagination in Paris in 2018-19. She completed her Bachelors of Music in Piano Performance and Composition at McGill University, and her DMA in Composition at Columbia University. Born in St. Albert, Alberta, Canada, Zosha currently lives with her family in New York City.
