Michael P. Minitti
Senior Scientist, LCLS - Linac Coherent Light Source
Current Role at StanfordI am a Senior Staff Scientist specializing in time-resolved gas-phase chemistry and structural dynamics studies using ultrabright, ultrafast X-rays and electrons. I have served the Laboratory in a multitude of Leadership roles including as the Director of the Megaelectronvolt Ultrafast Electron Diffraction (MeV-UED) user facility, LCLS Soft X-Ray Department, and the LCLS Laser Science and Research Department at SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory. My current focus is to continue the development of gas-phase photochemistry science areas at LCLS and to ensure their success for the User community in the era of high-brightness and high-repetition rate FELs such as LCLS-II-HE and LCLS-X.

Samsuzzoha Mondal
Research Assoc - CryoEM/Bioimg, Stanford Synchrotron Radiation Lightsource
BioSamsuzzoha Modal is a Research Associate at SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory and a Ph.D. chemist specializing in advanced microscopy and biophysical chemistry. His research integrates protein engineering, structural biology, and quantitative imaging to understand how protein organization across length scales regulates biological activity, and to translate these mechanistic insights into therapeutic and diagnostic approaches.
Samsuzzoha earned his Ph.D. at the Tata Institute of Fundamental Research (Mumbai, India), where he developed chemical tools to image signaling phospholipid dynamics in live biological systems. He then completed postdoctoral training at the University of Pennsylvania (Philadelphia), building in vitro reconstitution models to study the molecular basis of membrane trafficking. Since 2023 at SLAC, he has been combining X‑ray crystallography, small‑angle X‑ray scattering, and advanced optical methods to uncover design principles for quantum biosensing tools and to support structure‑guided small‑molecule therapeutic development.
A committed educator and mentor, Samsuzzoha has taught bioanalytical chemistry and led diverse student teams, emphasizing inclusive, hands‑on training, reproducible data practices, and translational problem‑solving. -

Sandra T. M. Mous
Staff Scientist, LCLS - Linac Coherent Light Source
BioI am a researcher at the Linac Coherent Light Source, focused on structural biology and protein dynamics. My work leverages advanced techniques such as time-resolved serial crystallography at X-ray Free Electron Lasers (XFELs) and synchrotrons to probe protein structure, dynamics, and function.
