Alexandre Six
Postdoctoral Scholar, Pathology
BioMy research is grounded in my curiosity about the living world and my desire to contribute to impactful, concrete discoveries. I began my journey in the world of biotechnology and microalgae during my studies at UTC in France, where I grew Volvox algae for tissue engineering purposes. Since then, I have been interested in studying and developing the potential of microalgae. During my PhD at CEA Cadarache, I investigated starch production in green microalgae for use in bioplastics. This work involved studying the induction, physiology and light requirements of starch accumulation, as well as developing a bioprocess for starch extraction, purification and plasticization. Working with Yonghua Li-Beisson, I have generated mutant strains of Ostreococcus tauri, one of the smallest known eukaryotes, to study the evolution of lipid metabolism in algae and plants. Here at Stanford, I am developing a genetic toolbox for non-model cyanobacteria in the Yeh lab.

Genevieve Smith
Postdoctoral Scholar, Comparative Literature
BioI am a Postdoctoral Fellow at Stanford University in the Clayman Institute for Gender Research. I completed my doctoral degree at the University of Oxford, where I studied societal impacts of artificial intelligence in low- and middle-income countries, focusing on gender. As a social scientist with a disciplinary background of science and technology studies (STS) and devleopment studies, I examine the impacts of AI on inequality and society, as well as explore more equitable and responsible paradigms for AI technologies globally. I founded the Responsible AI Initiative at the Berkeley Artificial Intelligence Research Lab and teach on responsible AI. I am a research affiliate at the Minderoo Centre for Technology & Democracy at Cambridge University and at the Technology & Management Centre for Development at University of Oxford. Prior, I served as the Responsible AI Fellow at the United States Agency for International Development and as Interim Co-Director of the UC Berkeley AI Policy Hub.

Richelle Smith
Postdoctoral Scholar, Electrical Engineering
BioRichelle L. Smith is a Postdoctoral Scholar at Stanford University with Professor Tom Lee. She received the B.S. and M.S. degrees in Electrical Engineering-Electrophysics from the University of Southern California (USC) in 2017, and the M.S. and Ph.D. degrees in Electrical Engineering from Stanford University in 2019 and 2024, respectively.
Her research interests include analog/mixed-signal circuit design and energy-efficient systems, with a focus on phase-domain communications and computing. Recent projects encompass oscillatory computing for combinatorial optimization, quantum computing emulation with oscillator circuits, brain-inspired/neuromorphic circuit design, as well as wireline transceivers and phase-domain/edge modulation signaling.
She has acted as a technical consultant to Rambus Labs. She has held internship positions at Linear Technology, Rambus Labs, Stanford Brains in Silicon Lab, TDK-InvenSense, and Silicon Laboratories. She holds 5 U.S. patents. Dr. Smith serves as a Reviewer for IEEE Transactions on Circuits and Systems—Part I: Regular Papers, IEEE Transactions on Circuits and Systems—Part II: Express Briefs, and IEEE Journal on Emerging and Selected Topics in Circuits and Systems.
