Frances Moore
Fellow, Center for Advanced Study in the Behavioral Sciences
BioFrances C. Moore finished her PhD in 2015. Her research focuses on understanding the rate and effectiveness of adaptation by farmers in order to understand the impact of climate change on future agricultural production and food security. She combines statistical and mathematical modeling with agricultural data and climate model output in order to better understand how farmers will respond to a changing climate, drawing heavily on economics and econometric methods.
Before Stanford, Fran obtained a Masters in Environmental Science at the Yale School of Forestry and Environmental Studies where her research focussed on the construction of adaptation policy in the international negotiations. She observed and participated in several of the UNFCCC meetings, culminating in COP15 in Copenhagen.
Fran has also published several articles on the mitigation potential of short-lived greenhouse gases in developing countries and is the co-editor of Sudden and Disruptive Climate Change: Exploring the Real Risks and How We Can Avoid Them. Fran is a Stanford Interdisciplinary Graduate Fellow and a former Switzer Foundation Fellow and National Science Foundation Graduate Research Fellow. She also holds a B.A., summa cum laude, in Earth and Planetary Science from Harvard University. -
Jordan Moore
Postdoctoral Scholar, Materials Science and Engineering
BioJordan Moore is currently a postdoctoral fellow at Stanford University, appointed in both the Departments of Materials Science & Engineering and Neurology. He earned his Ph.D. from The Ohio State University within the Department of Biomedical Engineering, where he was mentored by Dr. Daniel Gallego Perez. During his doctoral studies, Jordan's research primarily centered around the application of electroporation for gene delivery in vivo, with a specific focus on cell-reprogramming.
His work in his Ph.D. program aimed to address the restoration of blood flow to damaged peripheral nerves, contributing to the promotion of nerve regeneration and functional recovery. As a postdoctoral researcher, Jordan is currently co-mentored by Professor Sarah Heilshorn and Dr. Marion Buckwalter. In this role, he is dedicated to the development of innovative biomaterial-based platforms for gene and drug delivery. His research focuses on the treatment of stroke-related injuries and the prevention of cognitive decline.
