Davis’ lecture, “Remembering Patriots Day: The Hunt for the Tsarnaev Brothers and the True Meaning of #BostonStrong,” is about his experience as the police commissioner of the Boston Police Department and how he was at the forefront of the emergency response to the 2013 Boston Marathon Bombing and the arrests that followed.

Davis is a frequent contributor to CNN, FOX News and USA Today, and has appeared on “Meet the Press” and “60 Minutes.” He is a fellow at Harvard’s Institute of Politics and has lectured extensively at Harvard and MIT on cyber security and terrorism. Davis’ unique approaches to terrorism, cyber security, and policing have been adopted both nationally and internationally in Singapore, London, Northern Ireland, Jordan and Israel.

John Ortiz Smykla, Ph.D., will moderate the question and session following Davis’ presentation. Smykla is the director and professor of the FAU School of Criminology and Criminal Justice.
