Philipp Frank

Postdoctoral Scholar, Physics

BioPhilipp Frank is an Astronomy and Machine Learning researcher who is developing and applying statistical and ai methods to help deepen our understanding of the structure of the Milky Way and the Cosmos. He did his PhD and a followup Postdoc in Germany at Ludwig Maximilians University and the Max-Planck-Institute for Astrophysics where he worked on probabilistic ML and numerical inference methods and contributed to applications ranging from radio interferometry, X- and gamma-ray imaging, Cosmic Ray air-shower reconstructions, and 3d maps of the dust and gas content of our local Galactic neighborhood.
As a KIPAC Fellow at Stanford he aims to push 3D mapping of the interstellar medium to unprecedented scales in both size and resolution, and incorporate multiple additional tracers for a more comprehensive picture of local structures. This aims to shed light on the mechanisms of star formation and galaxy dynamics across scales only accessible through our unique vantage point within the Galaxy.

Hunter Fraser

Professor of Biology

Current Research and Scholarly InterestsWe study the evolution of complex traits by developing new experimental and computational methods.

Our work brings together quantitative genetics, genomics, epigenetics, and evolutionary biology to achieve a deeper understanding of how genetic variation shapes the phenotypic diversity of life. Our main focus is on the evolution of gene expression, which is the primary fuel for natural selection. Our long-term goal is to be able to introduce complex traits into new species via genome editing.
