Caitlin Nicole Hubbard
Assistant Professor of English
BioCaitlin Hubbard is a scholar of early modern theater and performance history, specializing in Restoration drama, the seventeenth-century court masque, and Shakespeare.
Her research focuses on the way that the practicalities and materiality of the stage space affect dramatic literature at the level of form. Her current book project, Reading Between the Scenes: Spectacle as Action and Idea in Early Modern English Theater, analyzes how the evolution of theater architecture and set design throughout the seventeenth-century, including the move from outdoor to indoor theaters and the introduction of changeable scenery, formally restructured both the craft of playwrighting and the experience of reading drama.
Courses she teaches include The Shakespearean Stage, in which students take on the roles and recreate the documents used by an early modern playing company to experience how performance transforms text, and What Women Want in Medieval and Renaissance Literature, which recenters female voices and female desire in the canon of early English literature. -

Brief Biography: Dr. Scott Hubbard has been a leader in space exploration for almost 50 years. His career includes a National Lab, a start-up venture, NASA, and Stanford. At NASA, Dr. Hubbard is best known as Director of NASA’s Ames Research Center, the first Mars Program Director (aka the "Mars Czar"), and the founder of NASA's Astrobiology Institute. As the sole NASA member of the Columbia Accident Investigation Board (CAIB), Hubbard’s work demonstrated the definitive technical cause of the accident. At Stanford, Hubbard has been very active in the emerging entrepreneurial space enterprise, establishing a peer-reviewed journal New Space, and creating the Stanford Center of Excellence for Commercial Space Transportation., From 2012 to 2023 Hubbard chaired the SpaceX Commercial Crew Safety Advisory Panel. Although now retired from teaching and advising he continues to serve on various committees for the National Academy, NASA and other groups. He is the author of the award winning "Exploring Mars: Chronicles from a Decade of Discovery" and his many honors include eight NASA medals including NASA’s highest recognition, the Distinguished Service Medal. Dr. Hubbard is also an Honorary Fellow of the AIAA. A brief video of Hubbard's career may be viewed at https://vimeo.com/172038243.

Andrew Huckins-Noss
Ph.D. Student in Education, admitted Autumn 2025
BioAndrew Huckins-Noss is an interdisciplinary social sciences researcher and educator whose work spans the fields of education, psychology, developmental science, and anthropology to investigate how experiences of discrimination and inequality shape health behaviors and psychological well-being among marginalized students. He received his bachelor’s degree in Anthropology, magna cum laude, from Brown University, followed by his master’s degree in Human Development and Psychology from Harvard University. Currently, he is a PhD student in Developmental and Psychological Sciences at Stanford’s Graduate School of Education, where he was named a 2025 fellow by the Office of the Vice Provost for Graduate Education.
Andrew’s research focuses on cultural adaptations of suicide prevention interventions for Black, Indigenous, People of Color (BIPOC), and Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender, and Queer (LGBTQ+) adolescents and young adults. In particular, Andrew seeks to utilize mixed methods community-based participatory research to inform culturally attuned suicide prevention interventions aimed at promoting belonging and adaptive coping among marginalized students. -

Wray Huestis
Professor of Chemistry, Emerita
BioProfessor Wray Huestis’ research concerns the molecular mechanisms whereby cells control their shape, motility, deformability and the structural integrity of their membranes. Metabolic control of interprotein and protein-lipid interactions is studied by a variety of biochemical, spectroscopic and radiochemical techniques, including fluorescence and EPR spectrometry, autoradiography and electron microscopy. The role of lipid metabolism and transport in regulating the fluid dynamics of cell suspensions (red blood cells, platelets, lymphocytes) is examined using circulating cells and cells grown in culture. Cell-cell and cell-liposome interactions are studied using model membrane systems with widely differing physical properties. Complexes of liposomes and encapsulated viruses are used as selective vectors to deliver water-soluble compounds across the membranes of intact cells. The particular projects described in the listed publications have as a common goal an understanding of the molecular workings of the cell membrane.
