Siyu He
Postdoctoral Scholar, Biomedical Data Sciences
BioI am a postdoctoral fellow in the Department of Biomedical Data Science at Stanford University, where I am advised by Dr. James Zou and Dr. Stephen Quake.
My research interests lie at the intersection of statistical machine learning, computational biology, stem cell engineering, and disease modeling. My mission is to leverage AI methodologies in biomedicine to accelerate our understanding of diseases. I earned my PhD in Biomedical Engineering from Columbia University, where I am co-advised by Dr. Kam Leong and Dr. Elham Azizi. I hold a Bachelor's degree in Physics from Xi'an Jiaotong University. -
Yahui He
Postdoctoral Scholar, Archaeology
BioYahui He is an environmental archaeologist specializing in archaeobotany in East Asia. Her research investigates the dynamics of human-plant relationships in multi-scalar socio-political contexts, focusing on the materiality of plants in processes of sedentism and urbanism.
Her PhD and ongoing research work in the Northern Zone, China (northern Loess Plateau and southern Mongolian Plateau) utilizes multi-proxy methods, including starch, phytolith, fungi, and use-wear analyses, to explore plant-based food and drink practices across different social contexts, such as household, community, and mortuary settings. Yahui’s collaborative research extends to studies on plant exploitation and dispersal, as well as related technologies such as plant food fermentation and bast fiber production across mainland China and beyond, including Erlitou in Henan and others in Taiwan and Honduras.
Prior to joining the Stanford Archaeology Center as a postdoctoral scholar, Yahui obtained her PhD at Stanford in 2024 and was a Li Foundation Fellow at the Needham Research Institute in Cambridge, UK in 2024 (Jan.-June). -
Laura Heath-Stout
Postdoctoral Scholar, Archaeology
BioI am an intersectional feminist archaeologist and activist. I use qualitative and quantitative social science methods to study the demographics and knowledge production practices of archaeologists. I am currently starting a new community-driven project about the history of institutions for people with disabilities in Massachusetts.
