Riccardo Marrocchio
Postdoctoral Scholar, Otolaryngology - Head & Neck Surgery
BioRiccardo Marrocchio received his BSc in Physics from the Sapienza University of Rome and his MSc in Physics from the University of Rome Tor Vergata. During his master, he had the opportunity to study and develop analytical and computational techniques to build mathematical models of complex biological systems, in particular of neuronal networks and the hearing system. He then joined the Institute of Sound and Vibration Research as a Ph.D. researcher at the University of Southampton. During his Ph.D., he worked on the development of a model of active cochlear micromechanics. After his PhD he continued at the University of Southampton joining the DigiTwin project as a Research Fellow, to work on the generalization of the biological feedback system of the cochlea to the design of control systems. To pursue his interests in hearing research, he joined Dr. Ó Maoiléidigh Lab, where he is working on stochastic fluctuations in hair bundles.

Alison Marsden
Douglass M. and Nola Leishman Professor of Cardiovascular Diseases, Professor of Pediatrics (Cardiology) and of Bioengineering and, by courtesy, of Mechanical Engineering
Current Research and Scholarly InterestsThe Cardiovascular Biomechanics Computation Lab at Stanford develops novel computational methods for the study of cardiovascular disease progression, surgical methods, and medical devices. We have a particular interest in pediatric cardiology, and use virtual surgery to design novel surgical concepts for children born with heart defects.

Nicholas P. Marshall
Clinical Scholar, Pediatrics - Infectious Diseases
Fellow in Pediatrics - Infectious DiseasesBioI'm a physician trained in Pediatric Infectious Diseases, now completing a fellowship in Clinical Informatics at Stanford, where I bring the two fields together to advance diagnostic and antimicrobial stewardship. My work applies machine learning and large language models (AI) to infectious diseases — from predicting infections and their resistance patterns to designing clinical decision support tools that guide better care.

Phil Marshall
Senior Scientist, Fundamental Physics Directorate
BioPhil is currently Deputy Director of Operations at the NSF-DOE Vera C. Rubin Observatory, and looking forward to all the science from its 10-year Legacy Survey of Space and Time (LSST). He helped form the LSST Dark Energy Science Collaboration at its inaugural meeting in 2012, and held leadership positions in it for 7 years until he moved to his current position at Rubin. (This included being collaboration Spokesperson 2017-2019, during which time he led the implementation of the collaboration's operations plan.) His long-standing scientific interest is strong gravitational lenses, whose Einstein rings and time delays can be used to probe the accelerated expansion history of the Universe, and which can help us probe the nature of Dark Matter via the sub-galactic structure than perturbs the lensing effect. Analyzing tens of thousands of these systems from the LSST will take new approaches to lens detection and modeling: Phil and his Strong Lensing Group at KIPAC are investigating machine learning with deep neural networks as a way to carry out principled, multi-level scientific inference at LSST scale. Phil did his PhD on Bayesian Analysis of Clusters of Galaxies at the University of Cambridge, during which time he first got interested in the process of measuring astronomical objects, including things like Dark Matter halos which we may not be able to observe directly. He first moved to Stanford in 2003 as one of KIPAC's first wave of postdocs, and returned as Kavli Fellow in 2009 after three years as TABASGO Fellow at the University of California, Santa Barbara. Phil then spent three years in Oxford as a Royal Society University Research Fellow, before moving back to join the SLAC staff on a permanent basis in 2013.
