Ricarda Laasch
Admin Services Administrator, SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory
Current Role at StanfordRicarda (Cara) Laasch is the manager of the User Research Administration Group at the Stanford Synchrotron Light Source (SSRL), part of SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory. In her role, she connects researchers with the right tools to tackle complex problems using synchrotron light. Cara and her team are responsible for developing, implementing, and coordinating user access at SSRL, as well as managing stakeholder communications and reporting related to the user program. They also design and execute various user communication and outreach activities, ensuring that researchers have the support they need to leverage SSRL's cutting-edge capabilities.
Before joining SSRL, Cara served as the executive communicator for the Deputy Laboratory Director of Research at Berkeley National Laboratory. Prior to that, she was the Communications Manager for the National Synchrotron Light Source II (NSLS-II), where she spent six years enhancing user engagement and communication strategies. -

Tom Linker
Associate Scientist, SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory
BioI am an Associate Scientist at SLAC National Lab. I utilize mutliscale simulations and machine learning to understand light matter interaction for ultrafast X-ray experiments performed at X-ray light sources around the world.
I am currently interested in development of attosecond non-linear x-ray emission spectroscopy techniques with the ultimate goal of exploring photochemistry in biological and catalytic systems. I am also developing molecular dynamics frameworks and X-ray scattering/spectroscopy experiments for excited state chemistry at nanoparticle surfaces for new energy technologies. -

Yusong Liu
Associate Scientist, SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory
BioI am currently an associate staff scientist in SLAC LCLS SRD Chemical Science Department. My research interest falls in excited state dynamics of small organic molecules, and I am particularly interested in using novel experimental techniques probing the ongoing dynamics in real time and space. The excited state dynamics in these systems usually take place in attoseconds to picoseconds time scales. The strongly-coupled electronic and nuclear dynamics often result in ultrafast energy redistribution as well as structure transformation, and facilitate many phenomenons in physics, chemistry, and biology.
My research builds on my extensive experience with ultrafast optical laser science and technology and time resolved spectroscopies. I am currently focusing on developing experiments utilizing multiple time-resolved spectroscopy or diffraction techniques probing molecular dynamics. These included time-resolved valence-ionization spectroscopy, Soft X-ray core-ionization spectroscopy, and ultrafast electron and hard X-ray diffraction. Most of my experiments are built upon the LCLS FEL X-ray beamline, MeV-UED facility in SLAC national lab, and our own tabletop ultrafast laser lab in Stanford PULSE institute. -
