Hamdi Tchelepi
Max Steineke Professor and Senior Fellow at the Precourt Institute for Energy
Current Research and Scholarly InterestsCurrent research activities: (1) model and simulate unstable miscible and immiscible fluid flow in heterogeneous porous media, (2) develop multiscale numerical solution algorithms for coupled mechanics and multiphase fluid flow in large-scale subsurface formations, and (3) develop stochastic solution methods that quantify the uncertainty associated with predictions of fluid-structure dynamics in porous media.

Merve Tekgürler
Ph.D. Student in History, admitted Autumn 2019
Masters Student in Symbolic Systems, admitted Autumn 2023BioMerve Tekgürler is a PhD candidate in History (ABD) and an M.S. student in Symbolic Systems. In AY 2023-24, they hold the inaugural Mellon/ACLS Dissertation Innovation Fellowship. Merve has a BA degree in History and Social and Cultural Anthropology from Freie University Berlin and an MA in History from Stanford.
Merve’s dissertation, tentatively titled “Crucible of Empire: Danubian Borderlands and the Making of Ottoman Administrative Mentalities” focuses on the Ottoman-Polish borderlands in the long 18th century (1760s-1820s), examining the changes and continuities north of the Danube River in relation to Russian and Austrian expansions. They study Ottoman news and information networks in this region and their impact on production and mobilisation of imperial knowledge.
As part of their dissertation project, Merve is training a handwritten text recognition model for 18th century Ottoman Turkish administrative hand and developing AI-based natural language processing tools for Ottoman Turkish. Their aim is to compile a large machine-readable corpus of manuscript news communiques and employ computational text analysis methods. In AY 2022-23, they were a Digital Humanities Graduate Fellow at Center for Spatial and Textual Analysis (CESTA) with their project on topic modeling in Ottoman court histories from the 18th and 19th centuries.
Merve’s research on the borderlands ties to their passion for maps and spatial humanities. They are the co-PI in Cistern: A Database of Geographical Knowledge in the Ottoman World, which they started with Adrien Zakar in Winter 2020. They also contributed to their advisor Ali Yaycıoğlu’s Mapping Ottoman Epirus project, building a placenames dataset from an Ottoman transportation map and developing a 3D model of the late-nineteenth century Ottoman Empire with exaggerated elevation data.
Previously, Merve was a G.J. Pigott Scholar (AY 2022-23) and graduate coordinator of Stanford Humanities Center Eurasian Empires Workshop (AY 2021-22 & 2022-23). They also worked as senior graduate mentor for the Undergraduate Research Internship at CESTA from Spring 2021 to Fall 2022. Outside academia, Merve enjoys playing tennis, doing gymnastics, and all kinds of DIY projects. -
Nicholas Telischak, MD, MS
Clinical Associate Professor, Radiology
Clinical Associate Professor (By courtesy), NeurosurgeryBioA native of the Bay Area, Dr. Nick Telischak is a dual fellowship-trained neurointerventional surgeon and neuroradiologist at Stanford Health Care. With board certifications in radiology and neuroradiology, he serves as a clinical associate professor in the Department of Radiology, and, by courtesy of the Department of Neurosurgery, at Stanford School of Medicine.
Dr. Telischak specializes in diagnosing and treating artery disorders in the brain and spine, including brain aneurysms, arteriovenous malformations (AVM), and dural arteriovenous fistula (dAVF), and stroke. Dr. Telischak also specializes in venous disorders in the brain including idiopathic intracranial hypertension (IIH). He also has a special interest in pulsatile tinnitus, a whooshing sound in the ears that occurs in rhythm with the heartbeat. Dr. Telischak also treats painful spinal (vertebral) fractures, spinal metastases (tumors resulting from cancer elsewhere in the body), and congenital vascular malformations (blood vessel abnormalities that are present at birth). He treats these conditions using minimally invasive, image-guided procedures and state-of-the-art technology.
Prior to joining Stanford Health Care, Dr. Telischak helped develop the Stroke Program at California Pacific Medical Center and Mills-Peninsula Medical Center, giving him a broad perspective on medical care systems within the Bay Area.
Dr. Telischak’s research focuses on:
• Identifying biomarkers to diagnose large vessel occlusion stroke (stroke in one of the large arteries in the brain)
• Noninvasive MRI techniques for diagnosing idiopathic intracranial hypertension (high pressure within the skull)
He is also the principal investigator for a study examining the efficacy of vertebroplasty and kyphoplasty for the treatment of painful vertebral compression fractures.
In addition, Dr. Telischak holds a master’s degree in bioengineering. He has worked with several companies pioneering new devices to treat brain aneurysms, vascular malformations, and strokes caused by blood clots, as well as new treatments for venous disorders in the brain caused by idiopathic intracranial hypertension.
Dr. Telischak has published more than 20 peer-reviewed articles and has been invited to present locally, nationally, and internationally at meetings for the Society of NeuroInterventional Surgery, American Society of Neuroradiology, and Jornada de Stroke in Asuncion, Paraguay, where he has served as visiting faculty. -
