Kyrus Mama
Ph.D. Student in Neurosciences, admitted Autumn 2022
Current Research and Scholarly InterestsI study how dendrites distinguish the order of synaptic inputs. I have developed a biophysical theory in which only ordered inputs advance a voltage plateau along a dendrite, and am developing combined voltage imaging and glutamate uncaging experiments to test it. My broader interests include neural sequence processing, spiking neural networks, and how dendritic mechanisms can inform artificial intelligence and neuromorphic computing.

Jordi Martinez
Ph.D. Student in Neurosciences, admitted Autumn 2025
BioI am a second-year graduate student advised by Dr. Anthony Ricci, currently studying how membranes can modulate mechanosensitive ion channel kinetics. My research trajectory has been diverse, starting with human neuroimaging using diffusion-weighted scans of clinical populations, transitioning to the molecular biology of oligodendrocyte myelination, and now moving into the biophysics and electrophysiology of audition.

Siavash Moghadami
Ph.D. Student in Chemical and Systems Biology, admitted Summer 2022
BioSiavash is a Ph.D. student in the Department of Chemical and Systems Biology at Stanford University School of Medicine, where he is advised by Professor Carolyn Bertozzi. His research focuses on the chemical biology of human aging, resilience, and homeostasis.
Before Stanford, Siavash earned his B.S./M.S. in Biochemistry and Chemical Biology from the University of California, San Diego, graduating summa cum laude with the highest departmental distinction and honors.
An immigrant pursuing the American dream, Siavash is deeply grateful to the United States for giving him a new home and a path to higher education and scientific discovery. He sees his research on aging as a way to give back, honoring the opportunities he found here while helping protect the health and independence of his own loved ones and others.
