John and Jene Blume - Robert and Ruth Halperin Professor, Professor of Neurosurgery and, by courtesy, of Neurology and Neurological Sciences
Current Research and Scholarly InterestsMy research interests encompass several areas of stereotactic and functional neurosurgery, including frameless stereotactic approaches for therapy delivery to deep brain nuclei; cortical physiology and its relationship to normal and pathological movement; brain-computer interfaces; and the development of novel neuromodulatory techniques for the treatment of movement disorders, epilepsy, pain, and other neurological diseases.

Peter Henderson
Visiting Professor, Stanford Law School
BioI’m a joint JD-PhD (Computer Science) student at Stanford University where I’m lucky enough to be advised by Dan Jurafsky. I’m also an OpenPhilanthropy AI Fellow and a Graduate Student Fellow at the Regulation, Evaluation, and Governance Lab. At Stanford Law School, I help run the Domestic Violence Pro Bono Project. I’m also a Technical Advisor at the Institute for Security+Technology.
Previously, I was lucky enough to be advised by David Meger and Joelle Pineau for my M.Sc. at McGill University and the Montréal Institute for Learning Algorithms. I also spent time as a Software Engineer and Applied Scientist at Amazon AWS/Alexa.
My research focuses on creating robust decision-making systems. My goals are three-fold: (1) use AI to make governments more efficient and fair; (2) ensure that AI isn’t deployed in ways that can harm people; (3) create new ML methods for applications that are beneficial to society.
This involves an eclectic mix of research and fields including: applied and theoretical work in machine learning; investigating reproducible, ethical, sustainable, and thorough research practices and methodologies to ensure that such systems perform as expected when deployed; policy and legal work on the use of AI in government.
