Martin Tik
Affiliate, Psychiatry and Behavioral Sciences
BioDr. Tik is a Visiting Scholar at the Stanford Brain Stimulation Lab and Group Leader at the Medical University of Vienna. His research bridges neuroimaging and brain stimulation to uncover mechanisms of therapeutic neuromodulation.
With a background in Biological Psychology and Medical Physics, Dr. Tik has developed innovative methods for integrating Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation with functional Magnetic Resonance Imaging (TMS-fMRI), enabling real-time measurement of stimulation-induced brain activity. His lab (http://tmsfmri.com) advances these tools toward individualized, state-dependent stimulation paradigms and closed-loop applications.
Building on his long-standing collaboration with the Stanford Brain Stimulation Lab, Dr. Tik works closely with Dr. Nolan Williams and colleagues to translate these neurotechnological innovations into clinical research. This ongoing Vienna–Stanford partnership aims to optimize stimulation parameters and dosing strategies for personalized TMS therapy and a better general understanding of brain circuitry in health and disease. -

Assistant Professor of Geophysics and, by courtesy, of Earth and Planetary Sciences
BioI utilize paleomagnetism and fundamental rock magnetism as tools to investigate problems in the planetary sciences. By studying the remanent magnetism recorded within rocks from differentiated planetary bodies, I can learn about core processes that facilitate the generation of dynamo magnetic fields within the Earth, Moon, and planetesimals. Determining the longevities and paleointensities of dynamo fields that initially magnetized rocks also provides insight into the long-term thermal evolution (i.e., effects of secular cooling) of planetary bodies. I also use paleomagnetism to understand impact cratering events, which are the most ubiquitous modifiers of planetary surfaces across the solar system. Impact events produce heat, shock, and sometimes hydrothermal systems that are all capable of resetting magnetization within impactites and target rocks via thermal, shock, and chemical processes. Therefore, I am able to use a combination of paleomagnetic and rock magnetic characterization to investigate shock pressures, temperatures, structural changes, and post-impact chemical alteration experienced by cratered planetary surfaces.

Sebastien Tilmans
Student, Civil and Environmental Engineering
BioSebastien is the Executive Director at the Codiga Resource Recovery Center at Stanford University, a test-bed facility dedicated to accelerating the scale-up of innovative resource recovery systems. Prior to joining Stanford, he worked in the Process Engineering group at Oceanside Wastewater Treatment Plant for the San Francisco Public Utilities Commission. He has also designed and implemented several decentralized anaerobic wastewater treatment systems in Panama, and a waterless sanitation service in Haiti. He holds a PhD in Environmental Engineering from Stanford University, and a B.E. in Civil Engineering from Cooper Union. He was a Fulbright scholar, an NDSEG fellow, and an EPA STAR fellow.
