Shruti Singh Kakan
Postdoctoral Scholar, Ophthalmology
BioI am a Biomedical Scientist with a Ph.D. in Translational Sciences. I worked with Non-Obese Diabetic (NOD) and NOD derived mice models of autoimmune Sjögren's Disease (SjD) for Biomarker Discovery and investigated disease mechanisms of autoimmune dacryoadenitis in the Lacrimal Glands. Using RNA Sequencing and autoantibody microarrays I validated microRNA biomarkers in human subjects.

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.
