Kang Yong Loh
Ph.D. Student in Chemistry, admitted Autumn 2018
BioI am a PhD graduate student and a Stanford ChEM-H Chemistry/Biology Interface Predoctoral Trainee at Stanford University, Department of Chemistry under the supervision of D.H. Chen Professor of Bioengineering Karl Deisseroth. I am interested in developing new chemical/protein tools to study neuroscience.
I was previously a research assistant at the Institute of Materials Research and Engineering and the Department of Chemistry at the National University of Singapore under the supervision of Provost's Chair Professor of Chemistry Xiaogang Liu. I was an Arnold and Mabel Beckman Fellow at the Beckman Institute of Advanced Science and Technology, University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign under the supervison of Jay and Ann Schenck Professor of Chemistry Yi Lu on bio-inspired nanomaterials, metalloDNAzymes and sensors. Prior to this, in 2010, I joined the Institute of Bioengineering and Nanotechnology in the laboratories of Professor Ying Jackie Yi-Ru, Professor Zhiqiang Gao and Principal Research Scientist Yanbing Zu to work on ultrasensitive DNA nanoparticle based biosensors. Subsequently in 2014, I worked on upconversion nanomaterials for biological applications under the supervision of Professor Xiaogang Liu at the National University of Singapore and the Institute of Materials Research and Engineering. In Summer 2015, Kang Yong returned to the National University of Singapore, the Institute of Materials Research and Engineering and the Institute of Molecular and Cell Biology under the supervision of Professor Yin Thai Chan to work on semiconductor quantum dots and microfluidics applications.
I obtained my B.S. degree in Chemistry (Highest Distinction and Edmund J. James Scholar Honors) from the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign in 2017. -
Grant Long
Ph.D. Student in Earth and Planetary Sciences, admitted Autumn 2024
BioGrant was born in a small town in Massachusetts and quickly moved to York, Maine, a small beach town. He earned a BSc in Geology from the University of Vermont in 2022. Grant continued with his MSc degree at Stanford University in 2024, focusing on sediment dynamics in Chile.
Grant joined Stanford as an MSc student in the Fall of 2022 and is a part of the Tectonic Geomorphology Lab group led by George Hilley.
Grant’s focus is on landscape evolution in south-central Chile, making comparisons between the modern and glacial-interglacial timescales. -

Isaac Longobardi
MD Student with Scholarly Concentration in Clinical Research, expected graduation Spring 2030
BioIsaac Longobardi, from Brooklyn, New York, is pursuing an MD at Stanford School of Medicine. He received his bachelor’s degree in social anthropology from Harvard College. Isaac aspires to transform long-term care services and delivery models for individuals with frailty, chronic illness, and mental and behavioral health conditions and their communities. Between 2022 and 2025, Isaac helped to launch and directed the Moving Forward Nursing Home Quality Coalition—a representative group of nursing home stakeholders working to advance recommendations from “The National Imperative to Improve Nursing Home Quality,” a landmark 2022 report by the National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine. Prior to that, he piloted multigenerational living while working as a volunteer youth and community engagement program coordinator at Hebrew SeniorLife, a Boston-based elder services nonprofit. Isaac’s speaking and writing on aging and long-term care include award-winning undergraduate research, a Substack, co-authored health policy articles, and conference presentations.

Ethan Lopes
Ph.D. Student in Geophysics, admitted Autumn 2021
BioI study how secondary magnetic minerals form through fluid–rock interactions and how their magnetic signals can reveal broader geological processes. My research draws upon the interconnected nature of ocean and planetary sciences. By applying a planetary perspective to Earth systems, I aim to both test planetary hypotheses and reevaluate fundamental geologic processes. I investigate these fundamental processes through experimental work that integrates rock magnetism and rock physics—two deeply interconnected disciplines—alongside advanced imaging techniques.

Kyle Lottinville
MBA, expected graduation 2026
Masters Student in Environment and Resources, admitted Spring 2026BioI'm a Stanford MBA focused on advancing climate solutions, with a passion for scaling renewables, sustainable infrastructure, and energy storage.
Before Stanford, I led large-scale energy and manufacturing projects around the world. At ExxonMobil, I managed a $400M drilling program in Russia, delivering some of the world’s longest wells and driving technical innovations that broke multiple drilling performance records. After ExxonMobil, I joined Tesla’s Gigafactory in Austin, where I led a 25-person team scaling infrastructure to deliver first-of-its-kind, high-volume 4680 battery production.
I consider myself a diplomatic leader who has effectively built relationships and worked alongside individuals from all around the world.
International experiences to include work, study abroad, and travel across 35+ countries and 6 continents.
In my spare time, I enjoy hiking, travel, smoking briskets, and golfing. I'm also working on my private pilot's license. -
Samuel Low
Ph.D. Student in Aeronautics and Astronautics, admitted Winter 2023
Ph.D. Minor, Electrical Engineering
Student Employee, Summer SessionBioSamuel Low is a Ph.D. candidate in the Stanford Space Rendezvous Laboratory, advised by Professor Simone D'Amico. Sam graduated from Stanford with an M.S. in Aeronautics and Astronautics (2023) and from the Singapore University of Technology and Design (SUTD) with a B.Sc. in Engineering Product Development (2018). His broad interests are in the guidance, navigation, control and autonomy of distributed space systems, such as formations and swarm satellites. His research focus is on enabling precise and robust state estimation between distributed spacecraft, centered on sensor/data fusion with carrier phase differential GNSS, with immediate applications to flight missions such as the VISORS and SWARM-EX missions. He had worked previously in DSO National Laboratories, Singapore, on space mission design and on developing navigation algorithms for Singapore's first formation flying satellite mission. He received the DSO Postgraduate Fellowship (2021), the Tan Kah Kee Postgraduate Scholarship (2021), the DSO SOAR Scholarship (2017), and the Asian Leadership Program Scholarship (2015-2018) jointly awarded by SUTD and Zhejiang University.
