    Jian Qin

    Associate Professor of Chemical Engineering
    On Leave from 01/01/2026 To 06/30/2026

    BioJian Qin is an Associate Professor in the Department of Chemical Engineering at the Stanford University. His research focuses on development of microscopic understanding of structural and physical properties of soft matters by using a combination of analytical theory, scaling argument, numerical computation, and molecular simulation. He worked as a postdoctoral scholar with Juan de Pablo in the Institute for Molecular Engineering at the University of Chicago and with Scott Milner in the Department of Chemical Engineering at the Pennsylvania State University. He received his Ph.D. in the Department of Chemical Engineering and Materials Science at the University of Minnesota under the supervision of David Morse and Frank Bates. His research covers self-assembly of multi-component polymeric systems, molecular origin of entanglement and polymer melt rheology, coacervation of polyelectrolytes, Coulomb interactions in dielectrically heterogeneous electrolytes, and surface charge polarizations in particulate aggregates in the absence or presence of flow.

    Tairan Qiu

    Assistant Professor of Education

    BioI, 邱泰然, Tairan Qiu (she/her/她), am an Assistant Professor of English Language Arts and Literacy Education in the Graduate School of Education. Prior to my doctoral studies, I was an ELA and ESOL teacher. As a transnational migrant and East Asian woman, my research is at the intersection of language, literacy, culture, race, gender, and im/migration. My research agenda is oriented around critically unpacking the dynamic language and literacy practices of transnational youth and families, centering their stories and experiences to shape research-informed change in their schools, communities, and homes, and sustaining their whole cultural, linguistic, and literate repertoire.

    I am committed to working in and with historically marginalized communities through community-centered research, teaching, and service. For example, funded by the Community Literacies Collaboratory, I am the co-founder of the University of Houston-Project Row Houses Community Literacies Center in Third Ward, Houston, TX. This arts-based Community Literacies Center offers weekly multiliteracies events for predominantly Black, Asian, Latiné, and translingual children, youth, and caregivers, where they celebrate their vibrant literacy practices in community with one another. Currently, I am working with a collective of nine transnational Girls of Color to narrate their transnational and translingual literacies and advocacy in and across their respective communities.
