Facundo Cabrera-Booman
Postdoctoral Scholar, Mechanical Engineering
BioFacundo Cabrera-Booman is a Fellow in the Center for Turbulence Research in the Mechanical Engineering Department at Stanford University. He received his B.S. and M.S. in Physics from the University of Buenos Aires, Argentina, and his Ph.D. in Physics from the École Normale Supérieure de Lyon, France. His research interests include wall turbulence at high Reynolds number on rough and smooth surfaces, Lagrangian dynamics of inertial particles in turbulent and quiescent flows, and droplet dynamics.

Current Research and Scholarly InterestsMy HFSP project is focussed on understanding the birth, life and death of marine snow. A predictive understanding of the hydrodynamic, biotic, and non-equilibrium aspects of this sinking microbial ecosystem is a notoriously challenging and globally relevant problem and is the central theme of my research at Stanford University. I’m applying my training as a physicist to shed light on the dynamical aspects of microbial life in the ocean, and to contribute insights that can help mitigate the negative impact of human activities on global climate; something I feel strongly about.

Tianyang Chen
Postdoctoral Scholar, Chemical Engineering
BioBorn in southeastern China, I went to Beijing for undergraduate education after spending 18 years in Zhejiang province. At Peking university, I conducted research in the field of organometallic chemistry in Prof. Zhenfeng Xi's lab in College of Chemistry and Molecular Engineering (CCME). Hoping to achieve more in chemical research, I went abroad to the east coast of the US and became a graduate student in Chemistry Department of MIT, under the supervision of Prof. Mircea Dincᾰ. My research interests during graduate school span from electrically conductive metal-organic frameworks and porous organic polymers to electrochemcial energy storage using organic or organic/inorganic hybrid materials. After 6 years at MIT, I traveled accross the country (by driving) to the west coast and am currently a postdoctoral scholar in Prof. Zhenan Bao's lab, working on developing polymeric materials for electrochemical interphase in batteries.

Postdoctoral Scholar, Computer Science
BioI am a postdoctoral researcher in the Stanford NLP Group, supervised by Prof. Christopher Manning and Prof. Christopher Potts. Previously, I did my PhD in IDSIA, supervised by Prof. Jürgen Schmidhuber. I work on systematic generalization, mainly in the context of algorithmic reasoning. This drives my research interest in network architectures (Transformers, DNC, graph networks) with inductive biases like information routing (attention, memory) and learning modular structures. My goal is to create a system that can learn generally applicable rules instead of pure pattern matching but with minimal hardcoded structure. I consider the lack of systematic generation to be the main obstacle to a more generally applicable artificial intelligence.
