Tino Pleiner
Assistant Professor of Molecular and Cellular Physiology
Current Research and Scholarly InterestsThe Pleiner lab combines mechanistic cell biology, structural biochemistry and protein engineering to dissect the pathways and molecular machines that mature human membrane proteins to a fully functional state. We also develop alpaca-derived and synthetic nanobodies as tools to modulate intracellular pathways that globally regulate protein homeostasis in health and disease.

Sylvia K. Plevritis, PhD
William M. Hume Professor in the School of Medicine, Professor of Biomedical Data Science and of Radiology
Current Research and Scholarly InterestsMy research program focuses on computational modeling of cancer biology and cancer outcomes. My laboratory develops stochastic models of the natural history of cancer based on clinical research data. We estimate population-level outcomes under differing screening and treatment interventions. We also analyze genomic and proteomic cancer data in order to identify molecular networks that are perturbed in cancer initiation and progression and relate these perturbations to patient outcomes.

Serge Plotkin
Associate Professor of Computer Science, Emeritus
BioPlotkin's focus is on optimization problems that are encountered in the context of design, management, and maintenance of broadband communication networks. Currently his main effort in this area is concentrated on development of algorithms for network topology design, routing, capacity sizing, server placement, and fair resource allocation. His goal is to develop both offline strategies that can be used during network design stage, as well as online strategies that can be applied to optimize existing network infrastructure.

Rajan Plumley
Research Associate - LCLS Material Sciences, LCLS - Linac Coherent Light Source
BioMy research focuses on using state-of-the-art x-ray facilities such as the Linac Coherent Light Source (LCLS) at SLAC to study ultrafast dynamics in materials with atomic detail. I am especially interested in how x-ray speckle phenomena can be used to understand the role fluctuations play in the emergence of unique phases that result from the interplay of competing interactions in the electronic, magnetic, and structural degrees of freedom within materials.

Jim Plummer
John M. Fluke Professor of Electrical Engineering, Emeritus
Current Research and Scholarly InterestsGenerally studies the governing physics and fabrication technology of silicon integrated circuits, including the scaling limits of silicon technology, and the application of silicon technology outside traditional integrated circuits, including power switching devices such as IGBTs. Process simulation tools like SUPREM for simulating fabrication. Recent work has focused on wide bandgap semiconductor materials, particularly SiC and GaN, for power control devices.
