Karan P. Singh
Ph.D. Student in Electrical Engineering, admitted Autumn 2023
BioI am an incoming electrical engineering Ph.D. student and full-time post-baccalaureate researcher, currently advised by Dr. Kim Butts Pauly in the Department of Radiology. My research will be funded by the NSF Graduate Research Fellowship.
My lab works primarily in transcranial ultrasound neuromodulation, a non-invasive therapeutic modality with the potential to cure neurological diseases such as epilepsy, Alzheimer's, and even addiction. My primary focus at the moment is using machine learning, particularly sequence models, to improve therapy outcomes and efficiency.
Previously, I studied electrical engineering at Cal Poly SLO and was the youngest engineering graduate in the school's history. There, I worked with Dr. Benjamin Hawkins on microfluidics research examining the electrowetting effect.
Outside of academia, I enjoy playing the piano, badminton, working out, and cooking! I am also the co-founder and co-president of the Stanford Piano Society. -

Alyson Singleton
Ph.D. Student in Environment and Resources, admitted Autumn 2021
BioAly is a PhD student in the Emmett Interdisciplinary Program in Environment & Resources, investigating the impact of large-scale global change on infectious disease transmission and broader health dynamics. Based on the concepts of One Health and Planetary Health, she focuses on the design and evaluation of win-win solutions that can synergistically benefit human and environmental health. As we anticipate widening disease disparities under increasing climate instability, her research aims to identify opportunities to prevent and mitigate these compounding harms. She approaches these topics by integrating novel computational methods, field-data collection, and epidemiologic techniques.
Prior to coming to Stanford, Aly was a Data Science Fellow at the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention where she developed analytic tools for outbreak detection and triage of multiple pathogens and supported the CDC’s Novel Coronavirus (COVID-19) Response. She also worked at the People, Place & Health Collective at the Brown University School of Public Health while earning her undergraduate (BS, Applied Mathematics) and master's degrees (MA, Biostatistics). Outside of science she loves exploring the world through backcountry travel, rollerblading, and live music events.
