Anthony Harris
Postdoctoral Scholar, Genetics
BioAnthony Harris is a postdoctoral fellow in the Department of Genetics at Stanford School of Medicine, where he investigates the organization and function of the genome during cellular development. His research focuses on uncovering fundamental principles of chromosome structure, cellular differentiation, and genome stability. By combining experimental molecular biology, computational modeling, and third generation sequencing technologies, Dr. Harris aims to elucidate the mechanisms that shape chromatin architecture and direct genome maintenance. His interdisciplinary approach integrates cutting-edge quantitative analysis with traditional molecular techniques to advance understanding of the relationship between cellular organization and disease.
Dr. Harris has developed computational tools for genomic data analysis and applies data-driven strategies to study chromatin structure and gene regulation. His work has been published in leading journals, including EMBO Journal, Genetics, and Developmental Cell, with projects spanning meiosis regulation, transcriptional control, and genome integrity. These experiences reflect his commitment to understanding how chromatin organization and gene expression guide cell fate and function.
Dr. Harris earned his Bachelor of Science in Biochemistry from the University of Minnesota and his Ph.D. in Molecular and Cellular Biology from the University of California, Berkeley. He brings expertise in data analysis, computational biology, scientific writing, and collaborative research. His broad training spans biochemistry, cell biology, microbiology, genetics, and computational genomics. -
E. John Harris Jr.
Professor of Surgery (Vascular), Emeritus
Current Research and Scholarly InterestsI am interested in thrombosis and the role of thrombin and its receptor in venous wall remodeling following venous thrombosis. I am also interested in vascular hemodynamics and the use of ultrasound, MRI and computational modeling in evaluating arterial flow in exercise conditions.

James Harris
James and Elenor Chesebrough Professor in the School of Engineering, Emeritus
Current Research and Scholarly InterestsResearch interests have been in the areas of new electronic and optoelectronic device structures created by heterojunctions, quantum wells, superlattices and nanostructured materials. Molecular Beam Epitaxy (MBE) has been the foundation to prepare nanostructured metastable materials with atomic layer control and dimensions smaller than the wavelength of electrons. In this regime, quantum size effects can be utilized to create entirely new device structures based upon tailored transitions between quantum states and tunneling between states and structures. Past two decades focused on MBE growth of novel optoelectronic materials (GaInNAsSb) for long wavelength lasers and solar cells; quantum well structures for surface emitting lasers with power and bandwidth demands of AI now driving 10,000 element VCSEL arrays for optical interconnect; integrated nanophotonic structures for laser driven dielectric electron accelerators and free electron lasers (FEL) on a wafer for medical imagining systems; high speed optical modulators and non-linear optical effects for generation, control and application of ultra-short optical pulses; ultra-high efficiency multi-bandgap solar cells; world record solar to hydrogen conversion with water splitting; Si based photonic devices, including single photon avalanche detector (SPAD) for range finding and autonomous vehicles; implantable retina prosthesis with first human response in phase 1 human trials, 12/17.

Jerry Harris
The Cecil H. and Ida M. Green Professor in Geophysics, Emeritus
Current Research and Scholarly InterestsBiographical Information
Jerry M. Harris is the Cecil and Ida Green Professor of Geophysics and Associate Dean for the Office of Multicultural Affairs. He joined Stanford in 1988 following 11 years in private industry. He served five years as Geophysics department chair, was the Founding Director of the Stanford Center for Computational Earth and Environmental Science (CEES), and co-launched Stanford's Global Climate and Energy Project (GCEP). Graduates from Jerry's research group, the Stanford Wave Physics Lab, work in private industry, government labs, and universities.
Research
My research interests address the physics and dynamics of seismic and electromagnetic waves in complex media. My approach to these problems includes theory, numerical simulation, laboratory methods, and the analysis of field data. My group, collectively known as the Stanford Wave Physics Laboratory, specializes on high frequency borehole methods and low frequency labratory methods. We apply this research to the characterization and monitoring of petroleum and CO2 storage reservoirs.
Teaching
I teach courses on waves phenomena for borehole geophysics and tomography. I recently introduced and co-taught a new course on computational geosciences.
Professional Activities
I was the First Vice President of the Society of Exploration Geophysicists in 2003-04, and have served as the Distinguished Lecturer for the SPE, SEG, and AAPG.
