    Postdoctoral Scholar, Biology

    BioI’m a graduate student with Nassos Typas at EMBL Heidelberg, working on the genetic landscape of antibiotic resistance evolution. My expertise includes project design and management, data analysis and interpretation, and developing and implementing research tools. I enjoy generating new ideas and devising feasible solutions to broadly relevant problems. My colleagues would describe me as a driven, resourceful individual who maintains a positive, proactive attitude when faced with adversity.

    Several internships, seminars, and jobs in top-tier academia and industry increased my expertise at the interface between research and business. To broaden my horizon, I lived in Lausanne, Boston, Basel, and the Bay Area for research internships and in Oxford for an abroad master semester.

    I am looking for new opportunities that will allow me to develop and promote technologies that benefit human healthspan and longevity. Specific fields of interest include evolution, aging, antibiotic resistance, systems biology, infectious diseases, digital healthcare, and data analytics.

  • Luca Bellodi

    Luca Bellodi

    Postdoctoral Scholar, Political Science

    BioLuca Bellodi is a research fellow at the Hoover Institution and a postdoctoral scholar in the Department of Political Science at Stanford University. His current research focuses on American political institutions, specifically the interaction between politics, bureaucracy, and populism, and its consequences for the quality of government.

    In Bellodi’s primary line of research, he studies politicians’ incentives to control the behavior of bureaucratic agencies, lawmakers’ reliance on bureaucratic expertise, and the role of bureaucracy in shaping the political agenda. He introduces innovative measurement strategies that combine natural language processing techniques and machine learning to address novel questions in the study of oversight, rulemaking, and the use of information in the policymaking process.

    In a related line of research, Bellodi investigates why politicians adopt populist behaviors and examines the consequences of populism for government performance and the quality of bureaucracy.

    Luca Bellodi holds a PhD in political science from University College London. Before joining Stanford, he was a postdoctoral research fellow at Bocconi University in Milan.
