Undergraduate, Vice Provost for Undergraduate Education
BioHoping to become a social entrepreneur in a technical field, I'm passionate about innovating in science and technology for the common good. I started my journey as an entrepreneur at 14 by filing a provisional patent for a novel frequency-based mosquito repelling device, and I've since been engaged in scientific research throughout high school. My projects encompass the topics of polymer physics, machine learning, tissue engineering, and targeted hydrogel therapies (in endodontics and oncology). I've presented my research through oral presentations at the American Physical Society and Materials Research Society, and I'm published in the Journal of Ethics in Science and Technological Innovation. I've also completed internships in the field of biotechnology, with the most recent at Congruent Ventures, compiling an investment thesis on the green polymer market and specific upstream precursors for bioplastics. I plan to major in Chemical Engineering at Stanford.
In my free time, I blacksmith, I enjoy playing guitar, both performing in front of hundreds of people or campfire acoustic guitar, and I play golf, hopefully on the club team at Stanford. I also feel a strong drive to give back to the community through hands on service, primarily through education. I volunteer tutor ESL, math, and science and mentor elementary schoolers in STEM, for which I was awarded the Bronze President's Volunteer Service Award. -

Emma Krasovich Southworth
Ph.D. Student in Environment and Resources, admitted Autumn 2022
BioResearch Interests:
planetary health | climate extremes | global change | environmental pollution and toxic exposures | disease ecology | environmental data science | causal inference
Emma is a PhD candidate in Environment and Resources at Stanford University’s Emmett Interdisciplinary Program in Environment and Resources (E-IPER). She is co-advised by Marshall Burke (Global Environmental Policy) and Erin Mordecai (Biology) and is a Research Fellow in the Global Policy Lab (led by Solomon Hsiang). She is a Stanford Data Science Scholar, NSF Graduate Research Fellow, and Stanford Edge Fellow.
Emma's dissertation research is united by the question: how can we protect human health in the face of intensifying and extreme environmental change? We live in an era where humans are impacting and are impacted by their environment at an unprecedented scale. Natural disasters such as wildfires are growing in size and severity, while tropical cyclones are intensifying and leading to lasting damage. Her research aims to contribute to a body of evidence that measures how extreme climate events lead to environmental degradation, harmful exposures, and disease outcomes as a way to better prepare for and prevent future impacts.
Prior to starting her PhD, Emma worked as a Research Analyst at the Global Policy Lab at UC Berkeley (now at Stanford). During her time at GPL, she was part of a project that aimed to identify land-based sources of non-point source water pollution in national-scale river systems in New Zealand and the US Mississippi River Basin. Emma completed her MPH in global and environmental health science and global health at Columbia University and received a BA in behavioral neuroscience from Colgate University.
When she is not at her desk, you can find her outside - most likely running or hiking up a mountain. She also co-founded a trivia company called aeroTRIV and loves to host bespoke trivia nights to bring communities together.
