Helge Raeder MD PhD
Visiting Professor, Genetics
BioHelge Ræder is a Full Professor at the Faculty of Medicine, University of Bergen (UiB), Norway and a Senior Consultant in Pediatric Endocrinology at Haukeland University Hospital, Bergen, Norway. With a background in cellular biology and diabetes research, he has significantly contributed to understanding diabetes through stem cell research. He has been a visiting scholar at Joslin Diabetes Center, Harvard Medical School with C. Ronald Kahn (2005-2006) and with Rohit N Kulkarni (2010-2011). As the Vice Dean of Innovation at UiB (2017-2024), he has spearheaded the establishment of ecosystems that catalyze breakthrough innovations, including a new Medical Innovation Centre. His research aims to unravel the biology of diabetes and endocrine disorders, focusing on the interplay between genetics, proteomics, and stem cell biology. Dr. Ræder's work has resulted in publications in high-impact journals including Nature, Nature Genetics, Nature Metabolism, Diabetes, Journal of Bone and Mineral Research and Nature Reviews Endocrinology. He has been recognized with several awards, including the Young Investigator’s Award from the International Society for Pediatric and Adolescent Diabetes. He has been an invited speaker at the IPITA-JDRF-HSCI Key opinion leader´s meeting on stem cell-derived beta cells at Harvard Medical School. Currently, he is a visiting professor at Stanford University, contributing to precision health research focusing on developing endocrine digital twins at Prof. Michael Snyder's Lab.

Srinivas Raghu
Professor of Physics
On Leave from 10/01/2024 To 03/31/2025BioI am interested in the emergent behavior of quantum condensed matter systems. Some recent research topics include non-Fermi liquids, quantum criticality, statistical mechanics of strongly interacting and disordered quantum systems, physics of the half-filled Landau level, quantum Hall to insulator transitions, superconductor-metal-insulator transitions, and the phenomenology of quantum materials.
Past contributions that I'm particularly proud of include the co-founding of the subject of topological photonics (with Duncan Haldane), scaling theories of non-Fermi liquid metals (with Shamit Kachru and Gonzalo Torroba), Euclidean lattice descriptions of Chern-Simons matter theories and their dualities in 2+1 dimensions (with Jing-Yuan Chen and Jun Ho Son), and 'dual' perspectives of quantum Hall transitions (with Prashant Kumar and Michael Mulligan). -
