Anna Rasmussen
Research Assoc-Experimental, SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory
BioI am interested in how Earth’s smallest constituents, microbes, cycle nutrients in aquatic ecosystems. I earned my PhD from the Department of Earth System Science at Stanford University focused on microbial ecology. I used molecular and biogeochemical approaches to understand the abundance, distribution, and activity of nitrifying bacteria and archaea in San Francisco Bay. My research used DNA, RNA, nitrification rate, and water quality data to uncover and characterize recurring massive ammonia-oxidizing archaea blooms in South Bay. For my postdoctoral work, I will use metagenomics to study subsurface microbial ecology in a river floodplain in collaboration with the Floodplain Hydro-Biogeochemistry Scientific Focus Area managed by a team at the SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory.

Ryan D Ribson
Associate Scientist, SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory
Current Role at StanfordI am currently an Associate Scientist in the LCLS Biological Sciences Department. I support condensed phase chemistry experiments at LCLS with a focus on hard and tender X-ray spectroscopies. I also work to develop research that applies hard and tender X-ray spectroscopic techniques to understanding enzymatic catalysis and studying ultrafast dynamics in inorganic and organic chromophores relevant for solar energy conversion and photocatalysis.

Jocelyn Richardson
Associate Scientist, SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory
BioI am an Associate Scientist at SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory, where I explore the intersection of biology and the environment. My research delves into the biogeochemical processes that govern the cycling of essential elements like phosphorus (P), sulfur (S), and potassium (K). With expertise in X-ray Fluorescence (XRF) imaging and tender energy X-ray Absorption Spectroscopy (XAS), I apply these advanced techniques to a diverse range of systems. At SSRL, I contribute to enhancing outreach and engagement with the biological and environmental research communities, offering training and fostering collaboration with both new and experienced users of advanced X-ray methods.
Before joining SSRL, I earned my PhD from Washington University in St. Louis, where my research focused on the geochemical signatures of sulfur in Ordovician marine sediments, employing a combination of sedimentology, bulk geochemistry, and microanalytical techniques. I am originally from Scotland and obtained my BSc in Geology from the University of St. Andrews in Scotland. -
Joseph Stephen Robinson
Lead Scientist, SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory
Current Role at StanfordI currently serve as the Department Head for Laser Science at the Linac Coherent Light Source (LCLS), where I lead a team of laser scientists dedicated to advancing ultrafast X-ray free-electron laser (FEL) science experiments. My role involves overseeing research initiatives and providing support to users at the LCLS facility, fostering innovation and collaboration in the field of laser science.

Aaron Roodman
Professor of Particle Physics and Astrophysics
BioAaron Roodman is a professor of Particle Physics & Astrophysics at Stanford’s SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory. Trained in experimental particle physics, he spent two decades studying differences between Matter and antiMatter, before turning his research to astrophysics and cosmology. Roodman’s current research focuses on the study of Dark Energy using images from large optical telescope surveys, such as the Dark Energy Survey and the upcoming Legacy Survey of Space and Time. He is also responsible for the assembly and testing of the world’s largest digital camera, the Vera C. Rubin Observatory's LSST Camera.

Uta Ruett
Senior Scientist, SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory
BioUta Ruett is an expert in high-energy x-ray diffraction. Her research is dedicated to developing methods and instrumentation for in situ and operando structural analysis at x-ray user facilities. Her scientific interests cover a wide range of diffraction applications, including solid-state physics, synthesis of new materials, catalysis, and electrochemistry. In recent years, her primary focus has been on the structural analysis of disordered thin films and interfaces.
Uta Ruett received her diploma in Physics from the University of Hamburg, Germany, in 1993, and her Ph.D. in Physics from the same institution in 1996. She began her postdoctoral research at Northern Illinois University before becoming an assistant scientist at Argonne National Laboratory. She then worked at the Max-Planck-Institute for Solid-State Physics in Stuttgart, Germany, before joining DESY in Hamburg, Germany, as a staff scientist and later as a Beamline Manager at PETRA III, DESY, Germany. In 2017, Uta Ruett accepted the position of group leader at the Advanced Photon Source (APS), where she oversaw the development and research program of five high-energy x-ray scattering beamlines. In 2024, she joined SLAC as a senior advisor for future projects at the Stanford Synchrotron Radiation Lightsource (SSRL). -
