  • Vayu Hill-Maini

    Vayu Hill-Maini

    Assistant Professor of Bioengineering

    Current Research and Scholarly InterestsWe study filamentous fungi, a diverse group of organisms that includes molds and mushrooms and are critical for a sustainable future. These organisms not only serve global roles in nutrient cycling, plant resilience, and agriculture, but have immense biotechnological potential for sustainable foods, medicines, enzymes, and materials. However, our ability to precisely manipulate fungal and metabolism and structure is still in its infancy, preventing both fundamental research and engineering efforts. Our lab integrates approaches from synthetic biology, biochemistry, and gastronomy to characterize and engineer fungi for food and sustainability applications, including creating new delicious, nutritious foods from readily available waste.

  • David Hills

    David Hills

    Associate Professor (Teaching) of Philosophy

    BioI did my undergraduate work at Amherst and went on to graduate school at Princeton. Since then I've taught at Harvard, UCLA, The University of Pennsylvania, The University of Michigan, Berkeley, and Stanford. I resumed my graduate career a little while back -- from a distance, as it were -- receiving the PhD in 2005.

    I'm married to another philosopher, Krista Lawlor.

    My interests continue to center in aesthetics, but they have spilled over into pretty much every branch of philosophy at one time or another.

    Wittgenstein, Culture and Value, 34: Im Rennen der Philosophie gewinnt, wer am langsamsten laufen kann. Oder: der, der das Ziel zuletzt erreicht. (In philosophy the race is to the one who can run slowest — the one who crosses the finish line last.) I'm not sure I believe this, but it's a comforting thing to read.
