Maurice Codespoti Goodman
Ph.D. Student in Biology, admitted Autumn 2018
BioI am a PhD candidate in marine ecology and biogeography, studying with Dr. Giulio De Leo at the Hopkins Marine Station. My research employs a variety of statistical and computational tools to examine the effects of climate change on predator-prey interactions in coastal marine ecosystems. By characterizing changes that have already occurred, and building projections under various climate scenarios, my work is aimed at adapting fisheries and marine resource management to a warming world. Before coming to Stanford, I worked alongside Drs. Benjamin Ruttenberg and Jennifer O'Leary, studying the responses of marine communities to disturbance, the population dynamics of marine invertebrates, and the large-scale processes structuring the biogeographic ranges of temperate fishes.

Professor of Biology
Current Research and Scholarly InterestsProfessor Deborah M Gordon studies the evolutionary ecology of collective behavior. Ant colonies operate without central control, using local interactions to regulate colony behavior.

Or Gozani
Dr. Morris Herzstein Professor
Current Research and Scholarly InterestsWe study the molecular mechanisms by which chromatin-signaling networks effect nuclear and epigenetic programs, and how dysregulation of these pathways leads to disease. Our work centers on the biology of lysine methylation, a principal chromatin-regulatory mechanism that directs epigenetic processes. We study how lysine methylation events are generated, sensed, and transduced, and how these chemical marks integrate with other nuclear signaling systems to govern diverse cellular functions.

Collin Gross
Postdoctoral Scholar, Biology
BioI am an ecologist primarily interested in patterns and processes of biodiversity and community assembly. I am curious about the functional, historical, and evolutionary processes that act to bring species together in space and allow them to coexist. My past work has largely examined these questions in seagrass systems, focusing on assemblages at the scale of meters to multiple continental coastlines. In the Daru Lab, I plan to leverage large sets of organismal distribution data to answer questions about how functional traits and species interactions shape regional biotas, and develop tools to visualize and analyze these assemblages in space.
