Benedikt Geier
Postdoctoral Scholar, Infectious Diseases
BioB.Sc. Biology, Ludwig Maximilian University (LMU), Munich/Germany (2013)
M.Sc. Biology and bioimaging, Ludwig Maximilian University (LMU), Munich/Germany (2015)
Ph.D., Animal-Microbe Symbioses, Max Planck Institute for Marine Microbiology in Bremen/Germany (2020)
Benedikt joined the Amieva Lab from Germany in 2022. During his B.Sc. and M.Sc. programs in zoology, he became fascinated with 3D imaging approaches to study small animal microanatomy. He spent his PhD developing in situ imaging approaches to study deep-sea symbioses and fell in love with studying host-microbe interactions. In the Amieva Lab, Benedikt will advance his previously developed correlative chemical imaging techniques to resolve metabolic and cellular interactions that drive H. pylori pathogenesis in the gastric glands.

Maitrayee Ghosh
Postdoctoral Scholar, Photon Science, SLAC
BioI am a postdoctoral scholar at the High Energy Density Sciences Division in the SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory in the Stanford University. I have received my PhD from the University of Rochester in 2023 in high-pressure chemistry. My research interests include theoretical and computational investigations of materials in both ambient and high-pressure regimes, that can be relevant for planetary sciences and inertial confinement fusion. I hail from Kolkata, India, and enjoy reading fictions and traveling in my leisure.

Ruth Margaret Gibson
Visiting Scholar, Medicine - Primary Care and Population Health
Affiliate, Pediatrics - NeonatologyBioDr. Ruth Gibson, PhD (如詩 吉布森), is a scholar at Stanford University with appointments at the Center for Innovation and Global Health (CIGH) and the Center for International Security and Cooperation (CISAC) within the Freeman Spogli Institute for International Studies.
Dr. Gibson specializes in global health and foreign affairs with a dedicated focus on improving maternal and child health in geopolitically complex regions affected by war and geopolitical challenges.
She holds an Honour's Bachelor of Science and a Master of Science from the University of Toronto, a fellowship in Medical Education from the Wilson Center for Medical Education at the University Health Network, and a PhD in Global Health and Strategic Studies from the University of British Columbia, and a postdoctoral fellowship from Stanford University. Fluent in English and French, and proficient in Mandarin Chinese, Dr. Gibson has spent a decade living abroad, engaging in humanitarian and global health initiatives across eight countries on five continents. Her experience spans fragile regions grappling with poverty, human rights issues, and war.
Currently, she is co-leading a Lancet Series on Global Health and Foreign Engagement with Professor Gary Darmstadt. Recently, she published significant findings on the impact of foreign aid sanctions on maternal and child health in The Lancet Global Health, garnering attention in Nature Medicine, The Stanford Report, and numerous international media outlets due to its critical relevance in today’s geopolitical landscape.
Dr. Gibson collaborates with the United Nations High Commission for Human Rights to develop a universal monitoring system to assess the impact of sanctions on human rights. Her research has been cited in UN General Assembly meetings by the Special Rapporteur on Unilateral Coercive Measures. She also contributes to mental health reports for the International Criminal Court's prosecution of war crimes and collaborates with the Global Burden of Disease Consortium at the Institute of Health Metrics and Evaluation, University of Washington, to publish health estimations and forecasts in The Lancet.
Leading a diverse team of academic scholars and independent experts and consultants, Dr. Gibson fosters a collaborative environment that encourages participation across various fields, including politics, statistics, simulation modeling, and social media design. Together, they aim to tackle complex questions regarding how civilian and child well-being is impacted by geopolitical challenges and foreign policy decisions. Dr. Gibson welcomes inquiries from those interested in conducting interdisciplinary research with real-world impact. She is responsive to journalists and media outlets seeking to understand issues which fall at the intersection of geopolitics, foreign policy, and health.
