Stepfan Huntsman
Ph.D. Student in Geological Sciences, admitted Winter 2022
BioI've had an interest in rocks and fossils since I was a small child, amassing a large collection in my youth, but hadn't considered it a viable career path instead starting my path as a social scientist studying gender and sexuality. My interest in a career in paleontology peaked after finishing my first degree, leading me to pursue a second bachelors degree. While working on my undergraduate at Weber State I discovered a true deep love of plants as well as a curiosity about the methods they use to adapt to new environments, which has lead me to pursuing a doctoral degree here at Stanford University.

Shaunak Joshi
Ph.D. Student in Energy Science and Engineering, admitted Autumn 2022
BioI am Shaunak, from India. I am starting my PhD in Energy Science and Engineering with Prof. Daniel Tartakovsky and Prof. Hamdi Tchelepi. My research will primarily focus on pore-scale modeling of lithium-based batteries.
Prior to this, I graduated from the Indian Institute of Technology (IIT) Bombay with a Bachelor's and a Master's in Energy Science and Engineering. I love to play all sorts of sports, especially football, badminton, and cricket. You would usually see me running around the campus on odd days. Hit me up if you want to have a chat! -
Dominik Juling
Ph.D. Student in Environmental Social Sciences, admitted Autumn 2026
BioDominik Juling is a PhD student in Environmental Social Sciences (EBS). His research examines the intersection of climate change, peace, and conflict, focusing on how urban communities experience and respond to climate stress in ways that dominant security frameworks often fail to anticipate. He uses mixed-method approaches, combining multi-sited ethnography, remote sensing and GIS, and discourse analyses.
Before coming to Stanford, he earned master's degrees from Yale University and the London School of Economics and Political Science in environmental sciences and conflict studies.
He publishes across academic, policy, and public-facing formats in English and German, always exploring new fields, challenges, and questions. -
