Wanheng Hu
Postdoctoral Scholar, Philosophy
BioWanheng Hu is a scholar of Science and Technology Studies (STS) whose research examines the epistemic, ethical, and regulatory dimensions of artificial intelligence, with a particular focus on machine learning in medicine. His current book project, Reassembling Expertise: Credible Knowledge and Machine Learning in Medical Imaging, is an ethnographic study of the Chinese medical AI industry. Drawing on multi-sited fieldwork, the project analyzes how, and in what sense, human medical expertise is translated into AI systems and how the credibility of these systems is negotiated across industrial, clinical, and regulatory settings. His broader scholarship engages the social studies of science, medicine, and technology; the sociology of expertise; critical data and algorithm studies; media studies; and public engagement with science.
Wanheng is currently an Embedded Ethics Fellow at Stanford University’s McCoy Family Center for Ethics in Society, in partnership with the Institute for Human-Centered Artificial Intelligence (HAI) and the Department of Computer Science. He is also an affiliate of the Data & Society Research Institute, a member of the Schwartz Reisman Institute’s AI & Trust Working Group at the University of Toronto, and a member of Cornell University’s Artificial Intelligence, Policy, and Practice (AIPP) initiative. He was previously a Fellow at Harvard Kennedy School’s Program on Science, Technology and Society (2022–23). He holds a Ph.D. in STS with a minor in Media Studies from Cornell University. His research has been supported by the U.S. National Science Foundation, the China Times Cultural Foundation, and Cornell’s Hu Shih Fellowship, among other sources, and has appeared in venues including Public Understanding of Science and The Oxford Handbook of the Sociology of Machine Learning. -

Owens Huang
Affiliate, Music
BioOwens Huang began his musical journey during the COVID-19 shutdown in 2020. In his youth, adventurous backpacking trips through countries such as India and Tibet profoundly shaped his musical expression and life philosophy. These explorations infused his compositions with introspective themes and a distinctive blend of Eastern artistic elements, seamlessly interwoven with classical, jazz, and metal influences.
Drawing inspiration from his role as a hedge fund manager, Huang engages with the dynamic realms of finance and global events, transforming them into creative works that weave together themes of Asian history, culture, philosophy, geopolitics, and market dynamics. In 2023, he premiered his first sonata, Place of Origins, at Taiwan’s National Recital Hall. In 2024, he debuted The Silicon Island in Taiwan, followed by Universal Connection in Mountain View, California. In 2025, he spoke at the CLSA Japan Forum and hosted his first concert in Tokyo. To date, Huang has published 18 works on major music streaming platforms.
Living in the San Francisco Bay Area, he is actively involved in the artistic, technology, and financial communities and serves on the board of the American Composers Forum. Guided by a vision of connection, Huang seeks to build collaborations across science, technology, and global finance, using music as a catalyst for dialogue and unity. -

Wray Huestis
Professor of Chemistry, Emerita
BioProfessor Wray Huestis’ research concerns the molecular mechanisms whereby cells control their shape, motility, deformability and the structural integrity of their membranes. Metabolic control of interprotein and protein-lipid interactions is studied by a variety of biochemical, spectroscopic and radiochemical techniques, including fluorescence and EPR spectrometry, autoradiography and electron microscopy. The role of lipid metabolism and transport in regulating the fluid dynamics of cell suspensions (red blood cells, platelets, lymphocytes) is examined using circulating cells and cells grown in culture. Cell-cell and cell-liposome interactions are studied using model membrane systems with widely differing physical properties. Complexes of liposomes and encapsulated viruses are used as selective vectors to deliver water-soluble compounds across the membranes of intact cells. The particular projects described in the listed publications have as a common goal an understanding of the molecular workings of the cell membrane.
