Sydney Aleah Hampton
Ph.D. Student in Oceans, admitted Autumn 2023
Master of Public Policy Student, Public PolicyBioSydney is a PhD student in the Oceans department, interested in using an interdisciplinary approach to explore the biophysical interactions of marine migratory species with their environment, and their responses to ecological and anthropogenic stressors. She is particularly interested in using what we know about various environmental variables and large-scale climate events to further predict and understand changes to the migratory patterns of marine species. Sydney holds a BS in Marine Science and BS in Experimental Psychology from the University of South Carolina.

Mahel Hamroun
COLLEGE Lecturer
BioMahel Hamroun (she/her) is a historian of the European Middle Ages and a Lecturer in Civic, Liberal, and Global Education (COLLEGE). As a historian, she works at the intersection of legal history, religious studies, and history of emotions, with a particular interest in comparative cultures of guilt. She has written and taught on a wide range of topics, including law and legal community in the medieval North, histories of sin and penance, and European understandings of salvation and damnation with respect to various perceived 'others'. She recently completed her doctorate at the University of California, Berkeley, where her research explored the role of penance in the secular laws of medieval Iceland and Norway. Future projects, including her forthcoming first book, will continue to focus on themes of culpability and legal and religious entanglement, both within and beyond the borders of Europe.

Arash Hamzehlou
Graduate, Stanford Center for Professional Development
BioA graduate student at Stanford University, focusing on artificial intelligence for autonomous cyber-physical systems. Arash's current interests span embedded/edge AI for real-time systems including real-time inference and scheduling, resource-aware model optimization (quantization, pruning, distillation), and autonomous decision-making and control, including learning-based control and planning (MPC, safe/model-based RL, offline RL, POMDPs, TAMP, and world models). He is currently deepening broad AI studies while refining his research direction.
Arash’s professional background includes developing real-time, high-fidelity simulations and digital twins for NASA’s Space Launch System, spanning mission-critical hardware and RF communication subsystems. He plans to pursue a Ph.D. in Computer Science to build trustworthy intelligent systems that minimize human intervention across diverse real-world applications.

Maha Hanna
Clinical Assistant Professor, Pediatrics
Current Research and Scholarly InterestsA bad latch means maternal excruciating pain, ineffective milk transfer with subsequent weight loss, hypoglycemia, higher risk of hyperbilirubinemia and dehydration fever.All of the above led to early cessation of breastfeeding; 46% of mothers who initiate exclusive breastfeeding stop within the first 12 weeks because of difficult latch. I developed a latch tutorial focusing on step-by step-in striations for achieving an effective, non-painful latch.
