It is well-known that the level-N modular curve X(N) has genus at least 2 exactly when N>6. In particular, it follows that there is no non-trivial family of elliptic curves over the complex affine line. In my talk, I will explain how one can use Hodge theory to prove some generalizations of these hyperbolicity statements for moduli spaces of abelian varieties of dimension g>1, and more generally for any moduli space of varieties with an infinitesimal Torelli theorem (e.g. Calabi-Yau varieties).
