Ian Hodder
Dunlevie Family Professor, Emeritus
BioIan Hodder joined the Department of Cultural and Social Anthropology in September of 1999. Among his publications are: Symbols in Action (Cambridge 1982), Reading the Past (Cambridge 1986), The Domestication of Europe (Oxford 1990), The Archaeological Process (Oxford 1999). Catalhoyuk: The Leopard's Tale (Thames and Hudson 2006), and Entangled. An archaeology of the relationships between humans and things (Wiley and Blackwell, 2012). Professor Hodder has been conducting the excavation of the 9,000 year-old Neolithic site of Catalhoyuk in central Turkey since 1993. The 25-year project has three aims - to place the art from the site in its full environmental, economic and social context, to conserve the paintings, plasters and mud walls, and to present the site to the public. The project is also associated with attempts to develop reflexive methods in archaeology. Dr. Hodder is currently the Dunlevie Family Professor Emeritus.

Keith Hodgson
David Mulvane Ehrsam and Edward Curtis Franklin Professor of Chemistry and Professor of Photon Science
BioCombining inorganic, biophysical and structural chemistry, Professor Keith Hodgson investigates how structure at molecular and macromolecular levels relates to function. Studies in the Hodgson lab have pioneered the use of synchrotron x-radiation to probe the electronic and structural environment of biomolecules. Recent efforts focus on the applications of x-ray diffraction, scattering and absorption spectroscopy to examine metalloproteins that are important in Earth’s biosphere, such as those that convert nitrogen to ammonia or methane to methanol.
Keith O. Hodgson was born in Virginia in 1947. He studied chemistry at the University of Virginia (B.S. 1969) and University of California, Berkeley (Ph.D. 1972), with a postdoctoral year at the ETH in Zurich. He joined the Stanford Chemistry Department faculty in 1973, starting up a program of fundamental research into the use of x-rays to study chemical and biological structure that made use of the unique capabilities of the Stanford Synchrotron Radiation Lightsource (SSRL). His lab carried out pioneering x-ray absorption and x-ray crystallographic studies of proteins, laying the foundation for a new field now in broad use worldwide. In the early eighties, he began development of one of the world's first synchrotron-based structural molecular biology research and user programs, centered at SSRL. He served as SSRL Director from 1998 to 2005, and SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory (SLAC) Deputy Director (2005-2007) and Associate Laboratory Director for Photon Science (2007-2011).
Today the Hodgson research group investigates how molecular structure at different organizational levels relates to biological and chemical function, using a variety of x-ray absorption, diffraction and scattering techniques. Typical of these molecular structural studies are investigations of metal ions as active sites of biomolecules. His research group develops and utilizes techniques such as x-ray absorption and emission spectroscopy (XAS and XES) to study the electronic and metrical details of a given metal ion in the biomolecule under a variety of natural conditions.
A major area of focus over many years, the active site of the enzyme nitrogenase is responsible for conversion of atmospheric di-nitrogen to ammonia. Using XAS studies at the S, Fe and Mo edge, the Hodgson group has worked to understand the electronic structure as a function of redox in this cluster. They have developed new methods to study long distances in the cluster within and outside the protein. Studies are ongoing to learn how this cluster functions during catalysis and interacts with substrates and inhibitors. Other components of the protein are also under active study.
Additional projects include the study of iron in dioxygen activation and oxidation within the binuclear iron-containing enzyme methane monooxygenase and in cytochrome oxidase. Lab members are also investigating the role of copper in electron transport and in dioxygen activation. Other studies include the electronic structure of iron-sulfur clusters in models and enzymes.
The research group is also focusing on using the next generation of x-ray light sources, the free electron laser. Such a light source, called the LCLS, is also located at SLAC. They are also developing new approaches using x-ray free electron laser radiation to image noncrystalline biomolecules and study chemical reactivity on ultrafast time scales. -

Kevin William Hoffman, MD, PhD
Clinical Assistant Professor, Psychiatry and Behavioral Sciences - Child & Adolescent Psychiatry and Child Development
BioKevin is a child, adolescent, and adult psychiatrist who primarily works with the Immune Behavioral Health (IBH) clinic at Stanford University. Kevin completed his Bachelor’s degree at Haverford College. He then moved to New York to complete combined MD and PhD degrees at the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai, where his dissertation research in the department of microbiology was focused on how the immune system responds to viral neuroinvasion. Kevin returned to Pennsylvania for his psychiatry residency at the University of Pennsylvania and child and adolescent psychiatry fellowship at the Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia. As a resident and fellow, Kevin has developed clinical interests in the overlap between medical and psychiatric illness, particularly with regards to neurodevelopmental and psychotic disorders. He also maintained research interests in the same areas, completing several projects with his mentor, Dr. Ran Barzilay, on the influence inflammatory disorders and physiologic distress have on children’s mental health. Kevin has continued to pursue these interests at Stanford, where he works with children with combined immunologic and psychiatric illness, with special focus and research interests in areas of autism and psychosis.

Clinical Assistant Professor, Psychiatry and Behavioral Sciences
BioEthan Hoffmann, Ph.D., is a clinical psychologist in the Couples and Family Therapy Clinic, WellConnect Program, and ADAPT Clinic within the Division of General Psychiatry and Psychology. His clinical specialties include couple and family therapy, health worker mental health, and sexual health. His clinical approach is grounded in evidence-based cognitive behavioral therapies including Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Cognitive Processing Therapy for PTSD (CPT-PTSD), Exposure and Response Prevention for OCD (ExRP), Integrative Behavioral Couple Therapy (IBCT), and Cognitive Behavioral Couple Therapy (CBCT)--and also draws on structural family therapy, feminist therapy, and relational-cultural psychotherapies. Dr. Hoffmann is the program director for the WellConnect Couples Coaching Program, a short-term coaching program for Stanford School of Medicine faculty and their partners. He also leads team-based support groups for clinical programs in the School of Medicine experiencing periods of heightened stress or internal transition. He is a clinical supervisor in couple and family therapy for advanced graduate students in the Palo Alto University Stanford PsyD Consortium and lectures and leads workshops on couple and family therapy, psychological interventions for sexual health concerns, and relationship and team-based interventions for health care workers. His research interests include relational and systemic interventions for health care workers and theoretical issues in men's mental health research and practice. He is the co-author of the 2019 textbook The Psychology of Men in Context.

Florian Hoffmann, Ph.D.
Postdoctoral Scholar, Hematology
BioFlorian is a postdoctoral researcher in Dr. Ami Bhatt's laboratory at Stanford University. He earned his Ph.D. in Biochemistry working in Dr. Sam Sternberg's group at Columbia University where he studied atypical CRISPR systems in prokaryotes, in search of molecular tools for programmable gene editing and gene regulation. His studies elucidate the mechanisms of a novel RNA-guided transposition system, the evolutionary ancestors of the gene editing enzymes Cas9 and Cas12, and an unprecedented Cas12f enzyme that creates custom de novo transcription start sites without requiring promoter elements. Florian is fascinated by the vast untapped resources of novel gene functions encoded in bacteria and their viruses (bacteriophages). He is an inventor on multiple patents related to his doctoral work. During his postdoctoral work at Stanford, he aims to discover novel paradigms of bacteria-virus interactions and how these shape the human gut microbiome, and human health. To investigate these systems, he harnesses interdisciplinary approaches, combining computational gene discovery with experimental techniques in Molecular Biology, Genetics and Biochemistry.
