Martin Jonikas
Assistant Professor, Biology
Current Research and Scholarly InterestsPhotosynthesis provides energy for nearly all life on Earth. Our lab aims to dramatically accelerate our understanding of photosynthetic organisms by developing and applying novel functional genomics strategies in the green alga Chlamydomonas reinhardtii. In the long run, we dream of engineering photosynthetic organisms to address the challenges that our civilization faces in agriculture, health and energy.

Michael Jordan
Affiliate, Woods Institute
Visiting Scholar, Woods InstituteBioMichael Jordan is a distinguished leader in global climate finance and energy development, currently serving as Chief Executive of Banneker Capital and Visiting Policy Fellow at Stanford University’s Woods Institute for the Environment. He brings over 20 years of experience driving transformative investments and strategic partnerships across emerging markets, with a particular focus on Africa, Latin America, and the Middle East. Recently, he served as the Special Advisor to the Coordinator and Director of Donor Partnerships at Power Africa, a U.S. Presidential Initiative that has supported over $24 billion of power sector investment and provided electricity to nearly 200 million people across sub-Saharan Africa since 2013. Mr. Jordan also served as Chief of Staff for Prosper Africa; a second U.S. Presidential Initiative aimed at strengthening the economic and strategic partnership between the U.S. and African countries. Mr. Jordan previously ran economic growth programs for USAID in Iraq and led risk management teams at Citi Corporate and Investment Bank in São Paulo, Brazil, and Miami, Florida. He holds an MBA in Finance from Columbia University and a BS from the Wharton School of Business, University of Pennsylvania.

Felipe Jornada
Assistant Professor of Materials Science and Engineering
BioFelipe Jornada's research aims at predicting and understanding excited-state phenomena in quantum and energy materials. In order to make reliable predictions on novel materials, he relies on high-performance computer calculations based on parameter-free, quantum-mechanical theories that are developed in his group. He is interested in studying fundamental aspects of these excitations – their lifetimes, dynamics, and stability/binding energies – and how they can be engineered in novel materials, such as nanostructured and low-dimensional systems. His ultimate goal is to use insights from atomistic calculations to rationally design new materials with applications in energy research, electronics, optoelectronics, and quantum technologies.
Felipe received his Ph.D. degree in physics from UC Berkeley in 2017 under the advice of Prof. Steven G. Louie. His Ph.D. research focused on the prediction of the electronic and optical properties of new quasi-two-dimensional materials, such as graphene and monolayer transition metal dichalcogenides. In his postdoc, he studied a number of problems related to multiparticle excitations in low-dimensional materials, including biexcitons and plasmons. Felipe joined the Stanford faculty in January 2020 and an assistant professor in the Department of Materials Science and Engineering. -

Mira Joseph
Juris Doctor Student, Law
BioI am currently studying solutions to residential instability in Oakland at the Changing Cities Research Lab at Stanford. I spent the previous year as a Research Associate at the Stanford Center for Racial Justice, leading an initiative on alternative first response programs in the Bay Area. Previously, I graduated magna cum laude from the University of Chicago with a B.A. in Sociology with honors and a specialization in computational methods. All of my work is dedicated to my late parent Polly, who still inspires me to be a more empathetic, thoughtful, curious, and rigorous researcher every day. In my free time, I love to play chess in the park and write sci-fi.
