Seraphine Kamayirese
Postdoctoral Scholar, Bioengineering
BioI am a protein and peptide biochemist with a focus on biophysical characterization, structural activity relationship (SAR)study, and design and optimization of peptides targeting disease-relevant proteins. My Ph.D. research focused on designing and optimizing ligands that target the 14-3-3ε protein to disrupt its interaction with the cell cycle regulator CDC25A, an interaction known to suppress apoptosis in squamous cell carcinoma. Inhibiting this pathway is expected to promote apoptosis in cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma. At Stanford University, I am expanding my research to study antimicrobial peptidoids and peptides such as LL-37 and their interactions with amyloid beta peptides, and the potential application of the resulting complexes as antiviral therapeutics. I bring strong experience in rational peptide design, structural activity relationship studies, molecular dynamics simulations, peptides and peptoids synthesis and purification, protein expression, and biophysical assays. My research has led to multiple peer-reviewed publications, presentations at national and international conferences, and awards, including the Young Investigator Poster Award at the American Peptide Symposium.

Theodore Kamins
Adjunct Professor, Electrical Engineering
Researcher, Hansen Experimental Physics Laboratory (HEPL)BioTed received his degrees from the University of California, Berkeley. He then joined the Research and Development Laboratory of Fairchild Semiconductor, where he worked with epitaxial and polycrystalline silicon before moving to Hewlett-Packard Laboratories, where he worked on numerous semiconductor material and device topics. Before moving to Stanford, he was a Principal Scientist at Hewlett-Packard in the Information and Quantum Systems Laboratory, where he conducted research on advanced nanostructured electronic and sensing materials and devices.
Ted is co-author with R. S. Muller of the textbook "Device Electronics for Integrated Circuits" and is author of the book "Polycrystalline Silicon for Integrated Circuits and Displays." He is a Fellow of the IEEE and a Fellow of the Electrochemical Society. He has taught at the University of California, Berkeley, and at Stanford University and has been an Associate Editor of the IEEE Transactions on Electron Devices. -

Hyunmin Kang
Affiliate, Center for Sustainable Development and Global Competitiveness
BioHyunmin Kang is an Assistant Professor in the Department of Psychology at Daegu Univeristy in South Korea. He received his Ph.D. in Cognitive Engineering at Yonsei University. He conducts research within the Human-Urban Interaction pillar, examining the interactions between humans, cities, culture, transportation, technology, and services based on psychological and human factors theories. His research particularly utilizes quantitative and qualitative analysis, big data analytics, and metaverse technologies. His goal is to conduct research that contributes to improving the lives of people living in urban environments by deepening the understanding of human behavior.
