Nathalie Lambrecht
Postdoctoral Scholar, General Internal Medicine
BioDr. Nathalie J. Lambrecht is a nutritional epidemiologist and food systems scholar working to promote the health of people and our planet. She is currently a Planetary Health Postdoctoral Fellow at the Stanford University School of Medicine. During this fellowship, she will evaluate agroecological strategies that can increase resilience against climate-related shocks for improved child nutrition and planetary health.
From 2021 to 2024, Dr. Lambrecht was a postdoctoral researcher in the Climate Change and Health Working Group at the Charité – Universitätsmedizin Berlin Insitute of Public Health and the Potsdam Institute for Climate Impact Research (PIK) in Germany. Dr. Lambrecht completed her PhD in Nutritional Sciences at the University of Michigan School of Public Health. -
Max Lamparth
Postdoctoral Scholar, Infectious Diseases
BioMax is a postdoctoral fellow at the Center for International Security and Cooperation, the Stanford Center for AI Safety, the Stanford Existential Risks Initiative, and the Brainstorm Lab at the Department of Psychiatry and Behavioral Sciences at Stanford University. He is advised by Prof. Clark Barrett, Prof. Steve Luby, and Prof. Paul Edwards.
With his research, he wants to make AI systems more secure and safe to use. Specifically, he is focussing on improving the ethical behavior of language models, making their inner workings more interpretable, and increasing their robustness against misuse.
Max received his Ph.D. in August 2023 from the School of Natural Sciences at the Technical University of Munich and previously a B.Sc. and M.Sc. in Physics from the Ruprecht Karl University of Heidelberg. -
TZU HAN LO
Postdoctoral Scholar, Gastroenterology
BioTzu-Han Lo, a researcher at the Institute of Biomedical Sciences at Academia Sinica, has made contributions to the field of macrophage biology. His work has particularly focused on inflammation, especially in the context of fibrotic response. One of his works includes a study on the regulation of macrophage polarization in ureteral obstruction. This research has illuminated the role of inflammatory cell infiltration and activation during the early stages of kidney injury, a common pathological feature of chronic kidney disease.
In addition to his work on macrophage biology, Tzu-Han Lo has also delved into research related to galectins, a family of β-galactoside–binding proteins. His work in this area has centered on the role of galectins in recognizing microbial glycans, particularly lipopolysaccharides (LPSs). He has explored their impact on host defense mechanisms, including autophagy and both canonical and non-canonical inflammasome signaling pathways.
His research has offered insights into the complex interactions between host immunity and microbial components. This has contributed to our understanding of inflammatory responses and their implications for human health.
