Adrien Specht
Ph.D. Student in Computational and Mathematical Engineering, admitted Spring 2024
BioI'm a PhD student in the Institute for Computational and Mathematical Engineering (ICME) at Stanford University, mentored by Prof. Mignot. My research is at the intersection of artificial intelligence and sleep medicine, focusing on developing predictive models for circadian rhythms and sleep debt from proteomics data. I adopt a problem-oriented approach, selecting methods based on the data and research questions at hand. My techniques range from linear regression to sophisticated deep learning frameworks, aiming to extract maximal insights from the data. I also explore the use of unsupervised and semi-supervised learning, and am interested in the applications of multimodal and foundation models in biology.

Jenny Suckale
Associate Professor of Geophysics and, Senior Fellow, by courtesy, at the Woods Institute for the Environment
BioMy research group studies disasters to reduce the risk they pose. We approach this challenge by developing customized mathematical models that can be tested against observational data and are informed by community needs through a scientific co-production process. We intentionally work on extremes across different natural systems rather than focusing on one specific natural system to identify both commonalities in the physical processes driving extremes and in the best practices for mitigating risk at the community level. Our current research priorities include volcanic eruptions, ice-sheet instability, permafrost disintegration, induced seismicity and flood-risk mitigation. I was recently awarded the Presidential Early Career Awards for Scientists and Engineers, the highest honor bestowed by the United States Government on science and engineering professionals in the early stages of their independent research careers and the CAREER award from the National Science Foundation.
