Wouter Huiting
Postdoctoral Scholar, Chemical and Systems Biology
BioWouter received his training at the University of Groningen, the Netherlands. Here he obtained a B.Sc.and M.Sc. in Human Movement Sciences (2008-2015), followed by a M.Sc. in Clinical and Molecular Neurosciences (2014-2016). He performed his doctoral research at the University of Groningen, obtaining his PhD degree in Molecular Cell Biology in 2021. Wouter continued his research in 2022 with a position as postdoctoral scholar at the Jarosz lab, at the department of Chemical and Systems Biology. Here he pursues his interest in the molecular forces underlying proteomic adaptation of cells and systems in development and disease. Outside of Stanford, Wouter is an avid sportsman, and likes cooking, hiking, birding, and in general loves to enjoy nature and wildlife with his wife and son.

Duc Tan Huynh
Postdoctoral Scholar, Neurosurgery
BioAs a cell biologist interested in neuroscience, I am fascinated about the molecular basis of nervous system disorders that reveal therapeutic targets and/or biomarkers. My long-term research goal is to identify strategies that revert dysregulation in aging or neurodegeneration. For my postdoctoral training in the Zuchero lab (Neurosurgery), I will investigate how myelination, an essential developmental process, contributes to intelligence and neurodegeneration at the biochemical, cellular, and physiological level. I received my BSc at UCLA and my PhD at Duke University.

Aleesha Jethwa
Postdoctoral Scholar, Anesthesiology, Perioperative and Pain Medicine
BioDr Jethwa is a postdoctoral fellow working in Dr Sultan's lab, within the Obstetric Anesthesiology Department. She is funded by the R90 HEAL/Pain Cohort grant. Her research focuses on the peripartum period and how targeted interventions can alter recovery trajectories.
Dr Jethwa previously worked as a resident anesthesiologist in the UK for 7 years including rotations in Internal Medicine, Obstetrics, and Pain Medicine and completed a Masters in Education at the University of Pennsylvania focused on medical education. -
Yan Jiang
Postdoctoral Scholar, Education
BioDr. Yan Jiang is a Postdoctoral Scholar at the Stanford Center on Early Childhood. She earned her Ph.D. in Education Studies, with a specialization in Computational Social Science, from the University of California, San Diego. Her research examines how social, cultural, and institutional conditions shape children’s developmental environments and create unequal opportunities across family and early education settings. She studies how unequal resources affect what families and educators are able to provide for children, and how unequal recognition shapes whose knowledge and practices are valued as ways of supporting children. To understand these processes, she uses quantitative, computational, and qualitative methods to examine the lived realities of children, families, and educators within the contexts of their everyday lives. Her scholarship has been recognized with the Dissertation Research Funding Award from the Society for Research in Child Development, the Yankelovich Graduate Research Grant, and the International Institute Research Fellowship at UC San Diego. Her research has appeared in leading journals, including Educational Researcher, Review of Educational Research, and Early Education and Development.
