John R. Pringle
Professor of Genetics, Emeritus
Current Research and Scholarly InterestsMuch of our research exploits the power of yeast as an experimentally tractable model eukaryote to investigate fundamental problems in cell and developmental biology such as the mechanisms of cell polarization and cytokinesis. In another project, we are developing the small sea anemone Aiptasia as a model system for study of the molecular and cellular biology of dinoflagellate-cnidarian symbiosis, which is critical for the survival of most corals but still very poorly understood.

Friedrich Prinz
Leonardo Professor, Professor of Mechanical Engineering, of Materials Science and Engineering and Senior Fellow at the Precourt Institute for Energy
BioFritz Prinz is the Leonardo Professor in the School of Engineering at Stanford University, Professor of Materials Science and Engineering, Professor of Mechanical Engineering, and Senior Fellow at the Precourt Institute for Energy. He also serves as the Director of the Nanoscale Prototyping Laboratory and Faculty Co-director of the NPL-Affiliate Program. A solid-state physicist by training, Prinz leads a group of doctoral students, postdoctoral scholars, and visiting scholars who are addressing fundamental issues on energy conversion and storage at the nanoscale. In his Laboratory, a wide range of nano-fabrication technologies are employed to build prototype fuel cells and capacitors with induced topological electronic states. We are testing these concepts and novel material structures through atomic layer deposition, scanning tunneling microscopy, impedance spectroscopy and other technologies. In addition, the Prinz group group uses atomic scale modeling to gain insights into the nature of charge separation and recombination processes. Before coming to Stanford in 1994, he was on the faculty at Carnegie Mellon University. Prinz earned a PhD in Physics at the University of Vienna.

Jonathan Pritchard
Bing Professor of Population Studies, Professor of Genetics and Biology
On Leave from 01/01/2026 To 06/15/2026Current Research and Scholarly InterestsWe are interested in a broad range of problems at the interface of genomics and evolutionary biology. One current focus of the lab is in understanding how genetic variation impacts gene regulation and complex traits. We also have long-term interests in using genetic data to learn about population structure, history and adaptation, especially in humans.

Marc Pritchard
Director, Research Operations, GSB Research Hub
BioMarc Pritchard is the Director, Research Operations supporting the operational, communications, and financial requirements within the Research Hub. He is a former FA-18 pilot and graduate of the Navy Fighter Weapons School (Top Gun). Over his 21-year career in the United States Navy, he completed five combat tours and served as the Commanding Officer of Strike Fighter Squadron 25.
Following his retirement from the Navy in 2008, Marc returned to the Monterey Peninsula serving in various roles at the Naval Postgraduate School, most recently within the Center for Homeland Defense and Security. Additionally, he serves on the board of the Pebble Beach Junior Golf Association and is the Aid Station Director for the Big Sur International Marathon. -
Charles G. Prober, MD
Professor of Pediatrics (Infectious Diseases) and, by courtesy, of Microbiology and Immunology
Current Research and Scholarly InterestsMy research interest is in the epidemiology, pathophysiology, prevention, and treatment of infections in children. Much of this research has focused on viral infections, especially those caused by herpes simplex virus (HSV). I have conducted a number of studies concerned with the epidemiology of HSV-2 infections in pregnant women, their partners, and neonates.
