Vijay Prakash Dwivedi
Postdoctoral Scholar, Computer Science
BioVijay Prakash Dwivedi is a Postdoctoral Scholar in Computer Science working on graph representation learning. He holds a PhD from Nanyang Technological University (NTU), Singapore. His work has made contributions to advancing benchmarks for Graph Neural Networks (GNNs), graph positional and structural encodings, and Graph Transformers as universal deep neural networks for graph-based learning. He has also contributed to the integration of parametric knowledge in large language models (LLMs) for diverse applications, particularly in healthcare. Several of the methods he developed during his PhD are now widely adopted in state-of-the-art Graph Transformers and other leading graph learning models. For his research, he received one of the Outstanding PhD Thesis Awards from the NTU College of Computing and Data Science. Vijay has over 7 years experience in both academia and industry with institutions including NTU, Snap Inc., Sony, and ASUS.

Jeffrey Dymond
COLLEGE Lecturer
BioI am an intellectual and legal historian. I aim in my research to understand the historical development of important social, political, and legal institutions and doctrines, such as sovereignty, the state, and international law. My current book project - called "Civilization and the Law of Nations" - re-constructs the assumptions about human nature and human sociability that animated the work of the early modern lawyers whose contributions gave initial shape to European ideas of international legal order. I especially wish to understand why these particular beliefs about human nature came to be regarded as universally applicable at a time of greater global and inter-cultural exchange. My PhD project focused on the reception of ancient Roman political and legal ideas and their role in shaping the modern state.
Before coming to Stanford, I was a postdoctoral fellow in the History Department at the University of Zürich, where I worked on a project tracing the reception of ancient Roman legal and political ideas across different points in European history. I earned my PhD in History in 2021 at the University of California, Los Angeles.
