Brando Miranda
Ph.D. Student in Computer Science, admitted Autumn 2022
BioBio
Brando Miranda is a current Ph.D. Student at Stanford University under the supervision of Professor Sanmi Koyejo in the department of Computer Science. Previously he has been a graduate student at University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign, Research Assistant at MIT’s Center for Brain Minds and Machines (CBMM), and graduate student at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Miranda’s research interests lie in the field of meta-learning, foundation models for theorem proving, and human & brain inspired Artificial Intelligence (AI). Miranda completed his Master of Engineering in Electrical Engineering and Computer Science under the supervision of Professor Tomaso Poggio – where he did research on Deep Learning Theory. Miranda has been the recipient of several awards, including Most Cited Paper Certificate awarded by International Journal of Automation & Computing (IJAC), two Honorable Mention with the Ford Foundation Fellowship, Computer Science Excellence Saburo Muroga Endowed Fellow, Stanford School of Engineering fellowship, and is currently an EDGE Scholar at Stanford University.
About me (Informal)
I am a scientist and an engineer that is interested in moving forward the powerful and beautiful field of A.I. closer to true Artificial General Intelligence (AGI). I believe an important direction is understanding how to combine cognitive and neuro-inspired models, specially investigating how reasoning and learning work together. In addition, I also believe being able to adapt to new tasks using prior experience and knowledge is crucial for AGI to occur. Consequently, I decided to pursue a Ph.D in AI and machine learning. I currently work on meta-learning and machine learning (ML) for Theorem Proving (TP) at Stanford University. -
Tatiana Monserrat Miranda-Benavides
Ph.D. Student in Iberian & Latin American Cultures, admitted Autumn 2025
BioTatiana Monserrat Miranda-Benavides studies literature and philosophy, with a focus on modern Latin American literature and early modern Iberian texts. She approaches these fields through existentialist frameworks to examine questions of subjectivity and temporality.

Siavash Moghadami
Ph.D. Student in Chemical and Systems Biology, admitted Summer 2022
BioSiavash Moghadami is a Ph.D. student in Chemical and Systems Biology at Stanford University School of Medicine, mentored by Professor Carolyn Bertozzi. His work sits at the intersection of chemical biology, neuroscience, artificial intelligence (AI), and aging, with a long-term vision of building programmable brain–body physiology for healthy longevity so that fewer families have to watch their loved ones age in frailty.
Before Stanford, Siavash earned his B.Sc./M.Sc. in Biochemistry and Chemical Biology from the University of California, San Diego, graduating summa cum laude with highest departmental distinction and honors.
A proud immigrant pursuing the American dream, Siavash feels a profound sense of love and gratitude for the United States, which gave him a new home and a path into higher education and scientific discovery. His research on brain–body physiology and healthy longevity is, in many ways, his way of giving back—honoring the opportunities he found in America and working to protect the health and independence of his own and others’ loved ones.
