Shiyuan Zhou
Postdoctoral Scholar, Materials Science and Engineering
BioShiyuan Zhou is a recipient of the 2026 Stanford Energy Postdoctoral Fellowship. He received his Ph.D. in Energy Chemistry in 2024 through a joint doctoral program between Xiamen University and Argonne National Laboratory, under the supervision of Prof. Shi-Gang Sun, Dr. Gui-Liang Xu, and Dr. Khalil Amine.
His research advances the frontiers of battery chemistry through the development of multimodal operando electrochemical scanning/transmission electron microscopy (EC-S/TEM) integrated with synchrotron X-ray characterization, enabling direct observation of real-time electrochemical and structural dynamics in energy materials. Trained as both a materials chemist and microscopist, his work focuses on visualizing highly sensitive and previously inaccessible electrochemical processes in batteries.
During his doctoral research, he developed in situ liquid-cell transmission electron microscopy techniques to probe real-time reaction dynamics in lithium–sulfur batteries. Following his Ph.D., he continued at Argonne as a postdoctoral fellow, where he expanded his research to multimodal and multiscale imaging approaches, integrating advanced electron microscopy with transmission X-ray microscopy to study all-solid-state batteries. His research has been recognized as one of China’s Top 10 Scientific Advances of 2023, and he has received the Tan Kah Kee Medal as well as the Argonne Impact Award. -

Richard Zhuang
Masters Student in Computer Science, admitted Autumn 2025
BioI’m broadly interested in understanding and improving the capabilities of Large Language Models (LLMs) in a data-centric way. Specifically, I’m intrigued by how certain data “foster” skills that are essential for LLM agents (e.g. reasoning and planning). I have also had a long-standing passion in Sports Analytics. Outside the realm of AI, you will usually find me playing basketball!

Orr Zohar
Ph.D. Student in Electrical Engineering, admitted Autumn 2021
BioOrr Zohar is a PhD candidate in Electrical Engineering at Stanford University and a Knight-Hennessy Scholar. He builds large-scale multimodal foundation models - spanning data curation, pretraining, and post-training - with a focus on video understanding, long-horizon reasoning, and robust transfer under real-world distribution shift. His work includes open-source model and dataset efforts and methods for evaluation and alignment of multimodal systems, with an emphasis on turning research into deployment-ready learning systems.
Before Stanford, he earned a BSc in Chemical Engineering (summa cum laude) and an MSc in Electrical Engineering from the Technion–Israel Institute of Technology, and worked as a machine learning and algorithms engineer at proteanTecs. Earlier research experiences include applied sensing and medical-imaging work. -
James Zou
Associate Professor of Biomedical Data Science and, by courtesy, of Computer Science and of Electrical Engineering
Current Research and Scholarly InterestsMy group works on both foundations of statistical machine learning and applications in biomedicine and healthcare. We develop new technologies that make ML more accountable to humans, more reliable/robust and reveals core scientific insights.
We want our ML to be impactful and beneficial, and as such, we are deeply motivated by transformative applications in biotech and health. We collaborate with and advise many academic and industry groups. -
