Yang Lin
Postdoctoral Scholar, Ophthalmology
BioYang Lin is a postdoctoral researcher in the laboratory of Dr. Andreas Tolias in the Department of Ophthalmology at Stanford University, where she joined in February 2024. She is also a member of the Enigma Project at Stanford.
Yang received her Ph.D. in 2023 from the IDG/McGovern Institute for Brain Research at Tsinghua University, where she trained under Dr. Song-Hai Shi. Her doctoral work focused on cortical development, investigating how developmental neuronal origin regulates neocortical map formation and characterizing the behavior and lineage progression of neural progenitors in the mammalian cortex.
As a postdoc, Yang has made a significant transition from developmental neuroscience into systems and computational neuroscience, focusing on how the visual brain supports active, goal-directed behavior. She currently leads behavioral and electrophysiological mice experiments in the Tolias lab. -
Lorraine Ling
Postdoctoral Scholar, Genetics
Current Research and Scholarly InterestsMy research focuses on the cell biology and biochemistry underlying the symbiotic relationship between corals and their partners, microscopic algae of the genus Symbiodinium. The algae live in the coral's gut tissue and provide its host products of photosynthesis while the coral provides inorganic carbon, nitrogen, and a safe habitat. I'm investigating the signaling pathways involved in 1) recognizing the correct algae partner 2) transfer of nutrients between the two.
