Else Holmfred
Affiliate, Earth & Planetary Sciences
Visiting Scholar, Earth & Planetary SciencesBioI was awarded the Novo Nordisk Foundation Visiting Scholar Stanford Bio-X Fellowship in 2023 and the Carlsberg Foundation Internationalisation Fellowship in 2022 to conduct my research at Stanford University, USA. My research combines the knowledge and experimental expertise from biogeochemistry with pharmaceutical science. I aim to establish a new pharmaceutical methodology using isotopic and trace elemental analysis to identify non-visual drug counterfeits.

Alexander Honeyman
Postdoctoral Scholar, Earth System Science
BioMy Ph.D. was concerned with the biogeochemistry and recovery of post-wildfire soils. I work at the intersections of data science, field work, laboratory experimentation, biogeochemistry, and microbial ecology. I was exposed to the issue of wildland fire through 10 years of experience as a volunteer firefighter / EMT in Boulder County, Colorado (fire / rescue / EMS). Two current projects are 1) investigating drought and groundwater quality linkages in Colorado, and 2) the geochemical character of wildfire smoke. I love working in environmental systems because they are complex, and offer numerous opportunities to hybridize the physical and computational sciences.

Samantha Hordyk
Masters Student in Geophysics, admitted Autumn 2022
BioI recently graduated from Reed College with a physics degree and am now pursing a Master's in Geophysics at Stanford University, advised by Prof. Jenny Suckale. My research interests lie in numerical modeling of environmental fluids, and the fundamental multi-phase physics of natural systems. In all my work, I am committed to creating a safer and more resilient world.

Mark Horowitz
Fortinet Founders Chair of the Department of Electrical Engineering , Yahoo! Founders Professor in the School of Engineering and Professor of Computer Science
BioProfessor Horowitz initially focused on designing high-performance digital systems by combining work in computer-aided design tools, circuit design, and system architecture. During this time, he built a number of early RISC microprocessors, and contributed to the design of early distributed shared memory multiprocessors. In 1990, Dr. Horowitz took leave from Stanford to help start Rambus Inc., a company designing high-bandwidth memory interface technology. After returning in 1991, his research group pioneered many innovations in high-speed link design, and many of today’s high speed link designs are designed by his former students or colleagues from Rambus.
In the 2000s he started a long collaboration with Prof. Levoy on computational photography, which included work that led to the Lytro camera, whose photographs could be refocused after they were captured.. Dr. Horowitz's current research interests are quite broad and span using EE and CS analysis methods to problems in neuro and molecular biology to creating new agile design methodologies for analog and digital VLSI circuits. He remains interested in learning new things, and building interdisciplinary teams. -
Alison Hoyt
Assistant Professor of Earth System Science and Center Fellow, by courtesy, at the Woods Institute for the Environment
BioAlison Hoyt is an Assistant Professor of Earth System Science at Stanford. Her work focuses on understanding how biogeochemical cycles respond to human impacts, with a particular focus on the most vulnerable and least understood carbon stocks in the tropics and the Arctic.
