Sujal Dave
Postdoctoral Scholar, Cardiology
BioSujal Dave, PhD, is a Postdoctoral Scholar in the Cardiovascular Biomechanics Computation Lab at Stanford University.
He recently completed his Ph.D. in Mechanical Engineering at the University of Calgary under the supervision of Dr. Artem Korobenko, where he developed consistent reduced order modeling frameworks for turbulent flows using variational multiscale methods and stabilized finite elements. His doctoral research advanced large-scale wind turbine wake simulations with applications to renewable energy and environmental flows. -
Onja Davidson Raoelison
Postdoctoral Scholar, Economics
BioOnja Davidson Raoelison is a Postdoctoral Fellow at the King Center on Global Development. Prior to joining Stanford, she earned her PhD in Environmental Engineering from the University of California, Los Angeles. She holds a joint MSc in Civil and Environmental Engineering from UCLA and in Civil Engineering from ESTP Paris, France.
Her overarching research focuses on the connection between wildfires, the environment, and human health, aiming to develop sustainable engineering solutions to mitigate the negative impacts of wildfires on water quality. Specifically, her research agenda at the Stanford Department of Medicine aims to understand how wildfires increase the risk of infectious diseases through their impacts on the environment -
Igor Daniel de Araujo Evangelista
Postdoctoral Scholar, Photon Science, SLAC
BioDr. Evangelista's primary research focus lies in computational modeling and theoretical analysis of semiconductor materials using advanced quantum mechanical methods, including Density Functional Theory, Quantum Monte Carlo, and ab-initio Molecular Dynamics. Evangelista investigates the electronic, structural, and mechanical properties of materials, collaborating closely with experimental groups to bridge theoretical predictions with empirical results. He is also interested in the development of empirical potentials and enhancing materials modeling through the application of machine learning techniques.
Evangelista entered the Department of Materials Science and Engineering at the University of Delaware as a Ph.D. candidate in 2018, after completing an master degree in Physics 2016-2018 at Federal Fluminense University (Brazil). Recent work includes collaborations with experimental groups to bridge theoretical predictions with empirical results, as well as applying machine learning to creating of empirical potentials to accelerate materials modeling. Evangelista has also contributed to understanding electron mobility in metal-oxide semiconductors and strain effects in two-dimensional materials. These studies showcase his expertise in electronic structure and materials design for next-generation semiconductor technologies. -
Maharshi Krishna Deb
Member, Maternal & Child Health Research Institute (MCHRI)
Current Research and Scholarly InterestsI aim to gain insights of the molecular underpinnings that are critical for the specification of human germ cells as well as the episode of epigenetic reprogramming that they undergo which is critical for their development and thereby essential for perpetual propagation of human species. Under co-mentorship of Prof. Azim Surani and Dr. Shiv Grewal,I aim to learn these lessons from this immortal lineage of human germline to identify interventions against various pediatric as well as degenerative

Claudia Del Toro Runzer
Postdoctoral Scholar, Medical Genetics
BioClaudia Del Toro Runzer is a postdoctoral scholar at Stanford University specializing in gene therapy and regenerative medicine. Her current research focuses on developing gene editing strategies for inherited disorders, including GNE myopathy and Gaucher disease. She works on advancing precision gene engineering approaches in human hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells and other clinically relevant cell types, with the goal of enabling safe and durable therapeutic correction.
Dr. Del Toro Runzer earned her PhD in Tissue Engineering from the MERLN Institute for Technology-Inspired Regenerative Medicine at Maastricht University. Her doctoral research focused on chemically modified mRNA therapeutics for bone regeneration, where she investigated molecular design, intracellular trafficking, and biomaterial-assisted delivery systems to enhance protein expression and osteogenic outcomes. Her work resulted in multiple first-author publications in leading journals, including Advanced Functional Materials, Bone Research, Materials Today, and Molecular Therapy: Nucleic Acids.
Prior to her PhD, she completed an M.Sc. in Regenerative Biology and Medicine at Technische Universität Dresden and a B.Sc. in Biotechnology Engineering at Instituto Tecnológico de Monterrey. Her international training spans Germany, the Netherlands, Mexico, and the United States, with research experience in organoid systems, tissue regeneration, biomaterials engineering, and microphysiological platforms.
