Hyongsok Tom Soh
Professor of Radiology (Early Detection), of Electrical Engineering, of Bioengineering and, by courtesy, of Chemical Engineering
BioDr. Soh received his B.S. with a double major in Mechanical Engineering and Materials Science with Distinction from Cornell University and his Ph.D. in Electrical Engineering from Stanford University. From 1999 to 2003, Dr. Soh served as the technical manager of MEMS Device Research Group at Bell Laboratories and Agere Systems. He was a faculty member at UCSB before joining Stanford in 2015. His current research interests are in analytical biotechnology, especially in high-throughput screening, directed evolution, and integrated biosensors.

Adrien Specht
Ph.D. Student in Computational and Mathematical Engineering, admitted Spring 2024
BioAdrien Specht is a master’s student at both ENS Paris-Saclay and Stanford University. He majored in electrical, computational, and mathematical engineering with the ambition to advance Sleep Sciences. In France, he was one of the sleep pioneers working with the start-up Dreem on a new deep learning strategy to conduct EEG spectral analysis. Now in California, he is assisting Dr. Mignot with data-oriented research such as studying sleep depth and circadian rhythm with machine learning and proteomics. To him, the best moment of the day is after lunch with a coffee, a nice sunbath, and enjoyable sleep talks with colleagues.

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.
