Luca Vendraminelli
Social Science Research Scholar, Stanford Digital Economy Lab (S-DEL)
Postdoctoral Scholar, Management Science and EngineeringBioLuca Vendraminelli is a Postdoctoral Researcher at the Digital Economy Lab and the Stanford Institute for Human-Centered AI (HAI) at Stanford University. He is also a research affiliate at the Center for Work, Technology & Organization (WTO) in the Department of Management Science and Engineering at Stanford University, and at the Data Science and AI Operations Lab in the Digital Data Design Institute at Harvard.
Within the context of large organizations, his research examines how AI transforms job tasks, expertise, and, more broadly, organizational design and the division of labor. He also investigates investments into AI and why AI projects fail, focusing on how the interplay between internal organizational factors and vendor strategies may be roadblocks at various stages of the technology innovation lifecycle.
His work has appeared in scientific journals such as the Journal of Product Innovation Management. He was awarded the 2020 Albert Page Award for Outstanding Professional Contribution. -

熊剑 (Jian Xiong)
Postdoctoral Scholar, Chemical Engineering
BioI thrive to understand the roles of lysosomes in physiological and pathological conditions. Lysosomes are both degradation compartment and metabolic controlling hub, and dysregulation of lysosomal functions are frequently implicated in a vast number of diseases including neurodegenerative diseases, however, the systematic knowledge of the molecular mechanism by which lysosomal contributes to these diseases is lacking. Ion channels are the primary mediators of neuronal activity, defects in neuronal ion channel activity are linked with many kinds of neurodegenerative diseases. Interestingly, besides typical ion channels that are involved in the neuronal activity, defects in lysosomal ion channels, such as TRPML1, CLN7 and CLC-7 are also implicated in neuropathy. My previous work as Ph.D student in University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center focused on regulation of lysosomal function by ion channels and metabolites. I discovered a mechanism of lysosomal Na+ channel regulate mTORC1 activation by regulating lysosomal amino acid accumulation. I also discovered role of glutamine in controlling lysosomal degradation capacity. In the meantime, I developed novel methods to isolate organelles. My ultimate research goal is to understand the key developmental pathways and how alterations in gene sequences and expression contribute to human disease, therefore, I am pursuing independent academic researcher as my career goal. Starting Feb 2022, I work with Dr. Monther Abu-Remaileh at Stanford University on role of lysosomes in neurodegenerative diseases. I use genetics, chemical biology and omics approaches to study lysosome function under various physiological and pathological conditions, especially age-associated neurodegenerative disorders, and monogenic neurodegenerative lysosome storage diseases. In Stanford, I aim to integrate ionic regulation, metabolomic regulation and functional proteomic regulation to systematically understand the biology of lysosome in physiological conditions and pathological conditions.
