DESCRIPTION:Morgan Stanley is part of an industry-leading technology team 
 who work with functional languages to build sophisticated financial models
 . \n\nPlease join us for a lecture led by Chris Andrews\, a Software Engin
 eer and member of the Morgan Stanley Risk Team\, who is responsible for Ri
 sk Model Infrastructure.\n\nDuring the lecture we will build a model for t
 he pricing and risk analysis of bonds\, and demonstrate how the concept of
  graph programming allows safe state “mutation” in a functional langua
 ge. We will also show our graph profiling and introspection tools which al
 low us to maximise code performance and developer productivity. Scala prog
 ramming language will be used but no previous experience with the language
  is required.\n\nPizza provided!\n
