Benjamin Good
Assistant Professor of Applied Physics and, by courtesy, of Biology
BioBenjamin Good is a theoretical biophysicist with a background in experimental evolution and population genetics. He is interested in the short-term evolutionary dynamics that emerge in rapidly evolving microbial populations like the gut microbiome. Technological advances are revolutionizing our ability to peer into these evolving ecosystems, providing us with an increasingly detailed catalog of their component species, genes, and pathways. Yet a vast gap still remains in understanding the population-level processes that control their emergent structure and function. Our group uses tools from statistical physics, population genetics, and computational biology to understand how microscopic growth processes and genome dynamics at the single cell level give rise to the collective behaviors that can be observed at the population level. Projects range from basic theoretical investigations of non-equilibrium processes in microbial evolution and ecology, to the development of new computational tools for measuring these processes in situ in both natural and experimental microbial communities. Through these specific examples, we seek to uncover unifying theoretical principles that could help us understand, forecast, and eventually control the ecological and evolutionary dynamics that take place in these diverse scenarios.

Laura Goode
Academic Prog Prof 1, H&S Dean's Office
BioI write about feminism, intersectionality, female friendship, motherhood, matrescence, gender, race, and culture in TV, film, and literature; I'm especially interested in the contemporary feminist first-person essay, the female gaze in image-making, and performances of gender in "prestige" television. I also write and teach on the craft of pitching for writers, how gendered and racinated modes of confidence inform pitching and publishing behaviors, and how emergent writers can build their own paths to publication.
My first book was a young adult novel, SISTER MISCHIEF (Candlewick Press, 2011), which follows an all-girl hip-hop crew in suburban Minnesota; The American Library Association included SM in two annual honor lists, the Amelia Bloomer Project, recognizing excellence in feminist YA literature, and the Rainbow List (Top Ten selection), recognizing excellence in GLBTQ YA. I'm also the author of a collection of poems, BECOME A NAME (Fathom Books, 2016), and with the director Meera Menon, I co-wrote and produced the feature film FARAH GOES BANG, which premiered at the 2013 Tribeca Film Festival and won the inaugural Nora Ephron Prize from Tribeca and Vogue. My nonfiction work has appeared in publications including BuzzFeed Reader, ELLE, Los Angeles Review of Books, Catapult, Glamour, InStyle, Publishers Weekly, Longreads, The Cut, Refinery29, New Republic, and the anthology SCRATCH: Writers, Money, and The Art of Making a Living. I'm currently working on a novel that examines the long-term effects of sexual violence on relationships between women, a short memoir, and a collection of poems. My craft book on pitching and publishing, PITCH CRAFT: The Writer's Guide to Getting Agented, Published, and Paid, was published by Ten Speed Press, an imprint of Penguin Random House, in fall 2025.
At Stanford, I serve as a Lecturer in the English department and Feminist, Gender, and Sexuality Studies program, and as the Associate Director for Student Programs for the Public Humanities Initiative. With Adrian Daub, I also co-host the Clayman Institute for Gender Research's podcast The Feminist Present. -
Alex J Goodell
Affiliate,
BioAnesthesiologist and internist interested in artificial intelligence and large language models in medicine. Currently, my primary focus is on developing and evaluating applications of large language models to improve the "user experience" of patients (who spend too much time fighting the system that is tasked with healing them) and doctors (who spend too much time fighting the system that is supposed to help them heal others).
Interests:
- Benchmarking LLMs as clinical calculators
- Medical summarization by LLMs
- Agentic /tool-using language models
- GenerativeAI for Medical Education and Simulation
- Data equity in LLMs
- Novel benchmarks for clinical LLMs, including simulation
- Participatory research, open-source software
I'm a Clinical Scholar in the Dept of Anesthesiology and a Post-Doctoral Fellow in Anesthesiology / Biomedical Data Science in the lab of Nima Aghaeepour.
I completed medical school at the UC Berkeley - UCSF Joint Medical Program, followed by the Combined Internal Medicine/Anesthesiology Residency at the Stanford School of Medicine, and a fellowship in Anesthesia Informatics at the Stanford AIM Lab. -

MAX GORBUK
Affiliate, Graduate School of Business - Academic Administration
BioI'm a research analyst at the Stanford GSB Venture Capital Initiative, where I work with Prof. Ilya Strebulaev on why some startups become unicorns. I proposed the Soonicorns study, and the team used it in its 2026 World Economic Forum package for Davos. I also automated the team's research process with AI, so processing one study now takes ten minutes instead of a week.
In 2022 I founded MedAI, a clinical decision-support tool that helps pediatricians plan vaccinations for children on immunosuppressive therapy. In its first week in clinics it stopped a wrong vaccine dose. It grew to 10 clinics, and MamaDoc acquired it in 2026.
I write open-source code as well. Nearly a hundred of my pull requests are merged into projects like ccxt, QuantLib and the UK AI Security Institute's inspect_evals. Often the bug is a rule the library documents but never checks.
I studied computer science in St. Petersburg and spent a year in Idaho as one of 90 students the U.S. State Department selected from 2,000. I'm now at London Business School on a scholarship, in the Masters in Analytics and Management program.

Steven Gorelick
Cyrus Fisher Tolman Professor and Senior Fellow at the Woods Institute for the Environment
Current Research and Scholarly Interests. Research : .
As a hydrologist, my research involves the study of water resources and water security with emphasis on freshwater. I direct the Global Freshwater Initiative, which studies water resources vulnerability problems throughout the world. We investigate the impacts of droughts on water-stressed regions by developing coupled human-natural systems models that explore the effects of climate, land-use, and demographic changes on urban and agricultural regions. We have produced useful tools to aid in sustainable agricultural and urban water management in the western US, Mexico, India, Jordan, and Vietnam. Although driven by observations, our conceptual and quantitative models lead us to rigorous understanding of physical processes, enable us to make predictions, and explore new water management policies, involving taxes, quotas, subsidies, water rights, and water markets. Such models have provided means to better quantify the influence of droughts and floods, particularly on vulnerable communities and then importantly to identify equitable water management strategies. .
. - Teaching :
. I teach courses for graduate and undergraduate students involving principles and methods used in physical and contaminant hydrogeology. In addition, I run a seminar series that exposes students to a variety of multidisciplinary topics involving hydrology and water resources. .
