Florian Hoffmann, Ph.D.
Postdoctoral Scholar, Hematology
BioFlorian is a postdoctoral researcher in Dr. Ami Bhatt's laboratory at Stanford University. He earned his Ph.D. in Biochemistry working in Dr. Sam Sternberg's group at Columbia University where he studied atypical CRISPR systems in prokaryotes, in search of molecular tools for programmable gene editing and gene regulation. His studies elucidate the mechanisms of a novel RNA-guided transposition system, the evolutionary ancestors of the gene editing enzymes Cas9 and Cas12, and an unprecedented Cas12f enzyme that creates custom de novo transcription start sites without requiring promoter elements. Florian is fascinated by the vast untapped resources of novel gene functions encoded in bacteria and their viruses (bacteriophages). He is an inventor on multiple patents related to his doctoral work. During his postdoctoral work at Stanford, he aims to discover novel paradigms of bacteria-virus interactions and how these shape the human gut microbiome, and human health. To investigate these systems, he harnesses interdisciplinary approaches, combining computational gene discovery with experimental techniques in Molecular Biology, Genetics and Biochemistry.

Mark J. Hogan
Affiliate, Accelerator
BioI am a Senior Staff Scientist at SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory. I earned my Ph.D. in physics from UCLA in 1998 under Claudio Pellegrini working on Self Amplified Spontaneous Emission free electron laser experiments at UCLA and Los Alamos National Laboratory. I joined SLAC in 1998 to work on the beam driven plasma wakefield accelerator experiments at the Final Focus Test Beam facility. I have subsequently served as the leader of the Advanced Accelerator Research Department and the Chief Scientist for the FACET Facility. I am now the Director of the FACET-II National User Facility and the FACET and Test Facilities Division Director. I am a Fellow of the American Physical Society, a Senior Member of the IEEE. In 2013 received the IEEE Particle Accelerator Science and Technology Award and in 2024 was awarded the John Dawson AAC Prize. My personal research interests seek to develop ideas for the application of plasma acceleration to linear colliders and free electron lasers.

Leo Hollberg
Professor (Research) of Physics and of Geophysics
BioHow can we make optimal use of quantum systems (atoms, lasers, and electronics) to test fundamental physics principles, enable precision measurements of space-time and when feasible, develop useful devices, sensors, and instruments?
Professor Hollberg’s research objectives include high precision tests of fundamental physics as well as applications of laser physics and technology. This experimental program in laser/atomic physics focuses on high-resolution spectroscopy of laser-cooled and -trapped atoms, non-linear optical coherence effects in atoms, optical frequency combs, optical/microwave atomic clocks, and high sensitivity trace gas detection. Frequently this involves the study of laser noise and methods to circumvent measurement limitations, up to, and beyond, quantum limited optical detection. Technologies and tools utilized include frequency-stabilized lasers and chip-scale atomic devices. Based in the Hansen Experimental Physics Laboratory (HEPL), this research program has strong, synergistic, collaborative connections to the Stanford Center on Position Navigation and Time (SCPNT). Research directions are inspired by experience that deeper understanding of fundamental science is critical and vital in addressing real-world problems, for example in the environment, energy, and navigation. Amazing new technologies and devices enable experiments that test fundamental principles with high precision and sometimes lead to the development of better instruments and sensors. Ultrasensitive optical detection of atoms, monitoring of trace gases, isotopes, and chemicals can impact many fields. Results from well-designed experiments teach us about the “realities” of nature, guide and inform, occasionally produce new discoveries, frequently surprise, and almost always generate new questions and perspectives. -
Marie Hollenhorst, MD, PhD
Member, Maternal & Child Health Research Institute (MCHRI)
BioDr. Hollenhorst is a physician and scientist with expertise in non-malignant hematology, transfusion medicine, and chemical biology. Dr. Hollenhorst values the one-on-one relationships that she forms with her patients, and strives to deliver the highest quality of care for individuals with blood diseases. Her experience caring for patients drives her to ask scientific questions in the laboratory, where she aims to bring a chemical approach to the study of non-malignant blood disease.
Dr. Hollenhorst pursued combined MD and PhD training at Harvard University, where she received a PhD in Chemical Biology under the mentorship of Professor Christopher T Walsh. She subsequently completed a residency in Internal Medicine at Brigham and Women's Hospital, a fellowship in Transfusion Medicine at Harvard Medical School, and a fellowship in Hematology at Stanford.
Dr. Hollenhorst has an interest in the biology of platelets, which are cellular fragments that help the blood to maintain a healthy balance between bleeding and clotting. Working in the laboratory of Professor Carolyn Bertozzi of Stanford Chemistry, Dr. Hollenhorst is studying sugar molecules found on the surface of platelets that are important in controlling their function and lifespan.
Dr. Hollenhorst's research is supported by an NIH K99 Career Pathway to Independence in Blood Science Award for Physician-Scientists, a Stanford Chemistry, Engineering & Medicine for Human Health Physician-Scientist Fellowship, and a National Blood Foundation Early-Career Scientific Research Grant.
