  • Avinash Londhe

    Avinash Londhe

    Postdoctoral Scholar, Pathology

    BioDr. Avinash Londhe is a postdoctoral researcher in Dr. Katrin Svensson’s lab in the Department of Pathology at Stanford University, where he investigates the complex mechanisms linking cancer, metabolism, and obesity. His research focuses on understanding how orphan peptide hormones regulate metabolic pathways and identifying novel receptor-peptide interactions. Driven by a passion for translational science, Dr. Londhe is committed to translating fundamental discoveries into real-world solutions that improve patient outcomes.

    During his doctoral training in Dr. Benoit Boivin’s lab at SUNY Polytechnic Institute, Dr. Londhe gained in-depth expertise in molecular mechanisms underlying metabolic disorders and cancer. His work contributed to the development of therapeutic strategies aimed at metabolic dysfunction. In addition to research, he excelled at managing laboratory operations and mentoring both graduate and undergraduate students, fostering a dynamic and collaborative research environment.

    Currently, Dr. Londhe is broadening his research toolkit by integrating bioinformatics, molecular biology, and biophysical techniques into his experimental approaches. His goal is to address critical challenges in cancer metabolism and metabolic diseases through innovative research.

    Dr. Londhe aspires to secure a faculty position at a leading university, where he can advance impactful research, mentor emerging scientists, and continue driving scientific innovation.

  • David Long

    David Long

    Postdoctoral Scholar, Physics

    Current Research and Scholarly InterestsDavid is a theoretical condensed matter physicist with an expertise in systems far from equilibrium. His research focuses on the dynamics of quantum systems, including robust topological effects in systems out of equilibrium, quantum chaos and thermalization, and (nearly) many-body localized systems.

  • Chenery Lowe

    Chenery Lowe

    Postdoctoral Scholar, Biomedical Ethics

    BioChenery Lowe, Ph.D., CGC, is a genetic counselor and healthcare communication researcher. She received her ScM in Genetic Counseling from the Johns Hopkins University/ National Institutes of Health Genetic Counseling Training Program in 2018. Chenery received her Ph.D. in Social and Behavioral Sciences from Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health in 2022, where she later served as an assistant scientist and academic director for the JHU/NIH genetic counseling program. Clinically, she has provided genetic counseling in immunology and adult oncology settings. She has taught graduate-level courses on interpersonal communication in health care, health literacy, and social and behavioral research in genetic counseling. Her research interests are in the areas of patient-provider communication, health equity, implicit bias, communication skills training interventions, and the ethics of interpersonal influence in medical care.

  • Xinyu Lu

    Xinyu Lu

    Graduate Visiting Researcher Student, Education
    Temp - Non-Exempt, Domingue Program

    BioXinyu Lu is a Doctoral Candidate in Educational Economics and Management at Zhejiang University and a Visiting Scholar and Research Associate at Stanford University. Her research lies at the intersection of Computational Education, Economics of Education, Learning Analytics, Educational Measurement, and Evidence-Based Education Policy. She is particularly interested in leveraging artificial intelligence, large-scale educational data, and causal inference methods to understand learning processes, evaluate educational interventions, and support talent development.

  • Yougeng Lu

    Yougeng Lu

    Postdoctoral Scholar, SCRDP/ Heart Disease Prevention

    BioYougeng Lu (he/him/his) is a NIH T32 Postdoctoral Scholar with the Stanford Prevention Research Center at Stanford School of Medicine. His research focuses on exploring the linkages between exposure to urban nature, such as green space and street trees, and individual's physical activity and mental health. Yougeng received his Ph.D. in Urban Planning and Development from the University of Southern California, where he developed a high spatiotemporal resolution PM2.5 prediction model with low-cost air sensors and studied how people's travel behavior affects their air pollution exposure. He holds an M.Sc. in Urban Planning from University of Washington, Seattle; and a B.Sc. in Geography from Wuhan University, China.

  • Anthony R. Lucas

    Anthony R. Lucas

    Postdoctoral Scholar, Psychiatry

    BioAnthony R. Lucas, PsyD, is a postdoctoral fellow in the Department of Psychiatry and Behavioral Sciences at Stanford University School of Medicine. His clinical work focuses on neurodiversity, mood and anxiety, and addiction, with a particular interest in autism and ADHD among adults identified or diagnosed later in life. At Stanford, he provides psychotherapy in the ADAPT Clinic for Mood and Anxiety Disorders and the Addiction Medicine Dual Diagnosis Clinic.

    His approach emphasizes individualized case formulation and evidence-based treatment, with attention to the relational and contextual factors that shape symptoms, functioning, and recovery.

    Dr. Lucas has also provided clinical supervision to graduate trainees at the Palo Alto VA, with an emphasis on case formulation, clinical reasoning, and reflective practice.

    He completed his APA-accredited doctoral internship in clinical psychology at Kaiser Permanente Northern California’s Addiction Medicine & Recovery Services in Walnut Creek.

  • Cuyler Luck

    Cuyler Luck

    Postdoctoral Scholar, Bioengineering

    Current Research and Scholarly InterestsI am a primarily lab-based (but computationally competent) biologist with a broad interest in understanding both how cells evolve to cause disease and how we might leverage similar strategies to engineer new behaviors into organisms. I enjoy doing science in diverse research areas (previously including malaria, chromatin remodeling in yeast, and several types of cancer), and I am excited to continue this trend by building synthetic biology tools for deployment in plants as a postdoc.

  • Charlotte Luff

    Charlotte Luff

    Postdoctoral Scholar, Psychiatry

    BioCharlotte is a postdoctoral scholar in the lab of Professor Luis de Lecea. Her research interests include the brain phenomena underpinning non-invasive neuromodulation such as focused ultrasound and electrical brain stimulation, and in the de Lecea lab she studies this with relation to sleep and addiction. Charlotte completed her PhD in the Interventional Systems Neuroscience lab of Dr Nir Grossman at Imperial College London. Her PhD research focused on uncovering the biophysical mechanism of temporal interference (TI) brain stimulation, primarily using electrophysiology and computational modelling. During her PhD, Charlotte spent a year as a visiting PhD student in Professor Ed Boyden’s lab at MIT, where she was trained in automated in-vivo patch clamp. Previously, Charlotte completed a BSc in Biomedical Science at King’s College London, and an MRes in Experimental Neuroscience at Imperial College London.
