Areeq Hasan
Ph.D. Student in Applied Physics, admitted Autumn 2024
Current Research and Scholarly InterestsInterested in the fundamental physics of strongly-correlated quantum many-body systems and creating new ways to control their dynamics. Intending to use the experimental platform of ultracold atoms to explore how nature invokes entanglement in the physics of many-body systems and build new ways to control the coherent quantum dynamics of strongly-correlated systems towards the end of quantum information processing.

Rhana Hashemi
Ph.D. Student in Psychology, admitted Autumn 2022
BioRhana Hashemi is a Ph.D. student in Social Psychology conducting social-belonging and stereotype threat research with Dr. Greg Walton. She is focused on improving the lives of students who use drugs by understanding and repairing the relationship they form with their schools and authority figures. Rhana hopes to design interventions that promote connection and reduce bias, as alternatives to school suspension. She holds a M.S in Community Health Prevention Research from Stanford School of Medicine and a B.A in Social Welfare with honors from UC Berkeley. Previous research has focused on cognitive dissonance theory, prevention messaging, social media, and adolescent substance use.

Karolina Hasiec
Masters Student in Bioengineering, admitted Autumn 2025
BioKarolina’s research at King’s College London focused on neuroimaging and on how analytical methods can be tailored to the unique characteristics of different imaging tools. At Stanford, she is supporting research that investigates whether myelin plasticity can serve as a tractable therapeutic target to slow the progression of SYNGAP1-related intellectual disability - a rare neurodevelopmental disorder characterized by severe, intractable epilepsy, significant cognitive impairment, and recognized as one of the leading genetic causes of autism. Through this work, she contributes to advancing understanding of how maladaptive myelination may underlie disease progression and to exploring new strategies for therapeutic intervention.

Rose Heald
Masters Student in Translational Research and Applied Medicine, admitted Autumn 2025
BioAs a Master’s student in Translational Research and Applied Medicine at Stanford Medicine, I’m passionate about bridging the gap between scientific discovery and real-world clinical impact. My career interests lie at the intersection of science and business, with a focus on advancing the development and implementation of novel therapeutics—particularly in the areas of genetics, rare disease, and neurodegenerative diseases.
I bring experience in clinical research, including work on the BabySeq Project, a pioneering study of genomic newborn screening (gNBS). This experience sparked my ongoing interest in how genomic technologies can be implemented to identify actionable health risks early in life. I continue to contribute to this field through my involvement with the International Consortium on Newborn Sequencing (ICoNS), a global initiative advancing gNBS research. -
Rachael Healy
Ph.D. Student in Anthropology, admitted Autumn 2021
Current Research and Scholarly InterestsResearch interests: youth, working-class life, colonialism, urban landscapes, intergenerational trauma, (contentious) commemoration, collective memory, time and space/place-making, narrative and storytelling, borderlands, post-conflict space, Northern Ireland/Ireland, political identity, precarity, hope(lessness).
Broadly, my PhD research focuses on youth culture and teenage life in post-conflict Belfast. I am interested in discourses of intergenerational trauma and community spaces and how these are seen as points of relation in a larger communal making-sense of a growing youth mental health crisis in a West Belfast neighbourhood. My research contributed to new understandings about how vernaculars of political violence shift according to new and ever-expanding pressures and priorities in community life and cultural cultivation.
Prior to joining Stanford, I received a first-class honors degree in Global Health and Social Medicine from King’s College London. I also received a Master of Arts in Anthropology and Sociology from the Graduate Institute Geneva. Before attending university, I worked for four years in various health advocacy and youth work roles, including in South Africa and Scotland. -
Derric I. Heck
