Helen Longino
Clarence Irving Lewis Professor of Philosophy, Emerita
Current Research and Scholarly InterestsI am currently pursuing research in several different areas. 1) A philosophical investigation of interaction in science. Interaction is invoked to explain phenomena that cannot be attributed to a single cause, but what are interactions? 2) Articulating the relations between general, individualist, epistemology and epistemology of science. 3) What contributions can feminist philosophy of science make to understanding science and sustainability policy in so-called developing countries?

Elora H. López-Nandam
Affiliate, Hopkins Marine Station
BioElora López-Nandam is a Ph.D. candidate in Biology at Stanford University. She uses genomics to address questions about the ecology, evolution, and conservation of marine life. Her research spans a wide range of topics, including coral bleaching recovery in American Samoa, somatic mutations in very long-lived organisms, and the effects of nuclear radiation on wildlife at Bikini Atoll, a former nuclear testing site in the Marshall Islands.
López-Nandam's first research expedition to Bikini Atoll was featured on the PBS documentary series Big Pacific in June 2017. Her research projects have also been featured in USA Today, The Atlantic, The Guardian, and Hakai Magazine.
López-Nandam is a National Geographic Early Career Explorer, an Explorers Club Rolex Explorer, a Stanford Graduate Fellow in Science & Engineering, and a National Science Foundation (NSF) Graduate Research Fellow. -
Kaden Loring
Ph.D. Student in Applied Physics, admitted Autumn 2021
BioKaden Loring was born in Kansas and graduated high school in rural western Kansas. After high school, Mr. Loring accepted an athletic scholarship to St. Thomas University in Miami, FL where he ran cross country and track for two years. Between his second and third years of undergrad, Loring transferred to the University of Florida where he graduated in May 2020 with a B.S. in physics. Go Gators! Loring was awarded the 2020 NSF GRFP grant and, as an undergrad, the 2018 NOAA Hollings Scholarship.
He plans to specialize in experimental plasma physics during his time at Stanford with a concentration on the development of magnetic confinement fusion. Contributing to the realization of controlled nuclear fusion energy is Mr. Loring's central motivating factor for pursuing his PhD in Applied Physics. Nuclear fusion energy would significantly contribute to a globally carbon-neutral energy portfolio. Outside of academics, Loring enjoys competing in endurance sports (running/triathlon), hiking, other outdoors sports, and traveling.
