Changxin Lyla Dong
Ph.D. Student in Materials Science and Engineering, admitted Autumn 2022
BioLyla Dong is committed to advancing innovative materials solutions that address critical challenges in health and environmental sustainability. As a PhD candidate at Stanford University advised by Professor Eric A. Appel (MSE) and co-advised by Professor Grace Gao (AA), she focuses on creating novel material solutions to protect against wildfires and improve therapeutic delivery systems.
Prior to her studies at Stanford, Lyla conducted research under the mentorship of Professors Pulickel M. Ajayan and Haotian Wang at Rice University. She developed functional materials for batteries and explored technologies for carbon capture, discovering her passion for sustainable materials science.
Through her interdisciplinary approach, Lyla strives to bridge the critical intersections between health and environmental sustainability, creating solutions that have a real-world impact. -
David Donoho
Anne T. and Robert M. Bass Professor in the School of Humanities and Sciences
BioDavid Donoho is a mathematician who has made fundamental contributions to theoretical and computational statistics, as well as to signal processing and harmonic analysis. His algorithms have contributed significantly to our understanding of the maximum entropy principle, of the structure of robust procedures, and of sparse data description.
Research Statement:
My theoretical research interests have focused on the mathematics of statistical inference and on theoretical questions arising in applying harmonic analysis to various applied problems. My applied research interests have ranged from data visualization to various problems in scientific signal processing, image processing, and inverse problems.
