A Boston, Massachusetts-based financial executive with more than three decades of experience, Warren Lammert has served as the CEO and chief investment officer of Granite Point Capital since 2004.

In March 2020, Yale Sterling Professor of Economics and Professor of Forestry and Environmental Studies William Nordhaus was named the recipient of the American Academy of Political and Social Science's 2020 Daniel Patrick Moynihan Prize. Nordhaus will receive the award, given annually to a leading social scientist or policymaker who has worked to improve the human condition via evidenced-based research, on October 8, 2020, in Washington, DC. Nordhaus also received the Nobel Prize in Economic Sciences in 2018.
A leading intellectual in the area of climate change, Nordhaus was the first macroeconomist to promote the idea that economic policy and human action can mitigate the negative effects of global warming. He has developed several models examining how climate policy interventions might affect the global economy, and he has been a proponent of tax policy as an effective climate change measure since the 1970s. The Dynamic Integrated Climate-Economy model, which he created in the mid-1990s, is still used by governing bodies worldwide to understand potential climate change solutions.
