Tung-Lam Dao
Tung-Lam Dao graduated from Ecole Polytechnique in 2004 then from Ecole Normale Superieure for the Master degree in 2005. He obtained his PhD in theoretical physics in 2008 at Center for Theoretical Physics (CPHT), Ecole Polytechnique under the supervision of Prof. Antoine Georges (Professor at College de France). His work concerned mainly the application of Dynamical Mean Field Theory (DMFT) for strongly correlated systems in lattices such as ultracold atoms in optical lattices. During his postdoc (2009-2011), he worked on Bose-Einstein condensations in disordered potentials in the group of Prof. Alain Aspect at Optical Institute. In 2011, he worked with Thierry Roncalli (head of R&D, Lyxor Asset Management) and Nicolas Gaussel (CIO of Lyxor Asset Management) on some novel estimations techniques for momentum strategies and the theoretical framework for analyzing CTA performace. Currently, he is researcher manager at Capital Fund Management (CFM). He works mostly on the investment strategies for trading volatility and the portfolio-allocation methods. Recently, he co-works with Jean-Philippe Bouchaud on the research of the dynamics of the implied volatility surface
