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.

Thierry Tambe
Assistant Professor of Electrical Engineering and, by courtesy, of Computer Science
BioThierry Tambe is an Assistant Professor of Electrical Engineering and, by courtesy, of Computer Science, and the William George and Ida Mary Hoover Faculty Fellow at Stanford University. His research centers on co-designing algorithms and hardware—from high-level models down to custom silicon—to enable efficient execution of AI and data-intensive workloads, with memory efficiency as a central theme. His work has been recognized through an NSF CAREER Award, the inaugural Google ML and Systems Junior Faculty Award, an NVIDIA Graduate PhD Fellowship, an IEEE SSCS Predoctoral Achievement Award, and several distinguished paper awards. Previously, Thierry was a visiting research scientist at NVIDIA and an engineer at Intel. He received a B.S. and M.Eng. from Texas A&M University, and a PhD from Harvard University, all in Electrical Engineering.

Sindy Tang
Associate Professor of Mechanical Engineering, Senior Fellow at the Woods Institute for the Environment and Professor, by courtesy, of Radiology and of Bioengineering
Current Research and Scholarly InterestsProf. Sindy K.Y. Tang develops engineering platforms that measure biological systems and convert these measurements into quantitative datasets. Her research focuses on experimental systems that probe biological processes across cellular and tissue scales, particularly how physical context—geometry, mechanics, and spatial organization—shapes biological function. Current work spans immune diagnostics, spatial tissue sampling for multi-omics analysis, and single-cell perturbation studies.
