DESCRIPTION:Join us on Wednesday\, April 22 at 2:30 PM in White Hall\, Room
  G09. Tiziana DiMatteo (Carnegie Mellon) will present a talk titled "Massi
 ve Black Holes: Insights from Cosmological Simulations."\n\n_______\n\nAbs
 tract\n\nThe enigmatic journey of massive black holes—from their origins
  as seed populations in the early universe to their growth through accreti
 on and mergers—is a vastly multi-scale phenomenon deeply connected with 
 the process of galaxy formation. Using cutting-edge cosmological simulatio
 ns\,  we can unravel aspects of the co-evolution of galaxies and black hol
 es. The simulations provide insights into the elusive population of interm
 ediate mass black holes and also shed light on some of the largest black h
 oles and their mergers. They are invaluable for guiding observational stra
 tegies and interpreting current and upcoming data.\n\n_______\n\nBiography
 \n\nTiziana Di Matteo is a Professor of Physics and Director of the McWill
 iams Center for Cosmology and Astrophysics at Carnegie Mellon University. 
 She received her Ph.D. from the University of Cambridge\, UK in 1998\, the
 n an Einstein Fellow at Harvard and as junior faculty at the Max Planck In
 stitute for Astrophysics\, Germany. A leading theorist in high-energy astr
 ophysics and cosmology\, Di Matteo employs large-scale supercomputing to s
 imulate galaxy formation and the growth of massive black holes—from the 
 cosmic dawn to the present day. She also serves as a Scientific Editor for
  the Astrophysical Journal\, a premier publication  of the American Astron
 omical Society. In 2014\, she was elected a Fellow of the American Physica
 l Society Society. Di Matteo has been honored with a Pittsburgh Foundation
  Fellowship and the Carnegie Science Center Award for Excellence. Among he
 r many service roles\, she served on the NSF Advisory Committee for Cyberi
 nfrastructure\, and is a member of the LSST Dark Energy Science Collaborat
 ion\, and elected council member for LISA Consortium.
