Rebecca Zhu
Postdoctoral Scholar, Psychology
BioI am a postdoctoral fellow in developmental psychology at Stanford University, working with Michael C. Frank. Previously, I was a PhD candidate and postdoctoral fellow at the University of California, Berkeley, working with Alison Gopnik, and a lab manager at Harvard University, working with Susan Carey.
My research investigates when and how children acquire, and consequently learn from, symbolic systems such as language and pictures. In one line of research, I investigate the mechanisms underlying children’s acquisition of various kinds of non-literal language, such as metaphor and metonymy, as well as how children’s non-literal language comprehension may further guide their thinking and reasoning. In another line of research, I work with urban and rural Kenyan children to investigate the efficacy of picture-based learning materials and the validity of picture-based assessments across cultures and contexts. My work in Kenya is conducted in close collaboration with researchers and non-profit organizations in Kisumu, Mombasa, and Nairobi.
This research program is innovative and interdisciplinary: these findings not only address fundamental debates in psychology, philosophy, and linguistics (i.e., by providing empirical insight into the mechanisms underlying children’s ability to acquire and learn from symbolic systems), but also have direct implications for applied research in education, public health, and developmental economics (i.e., by improving the learning materials and assessment tools used in global early childhood development programs). -

Richard Zhuang
Masters Student in Computer Science, admitted Autumn 2025
BioI’m broadly interested in understanding and improving the capabilities of Large Language Models (LLMs) in a data-centric way. Specifically, I’m intrigued by how certain data “foster” skills that are essential for LLM agents (e.g. reasoning and planning). I have also had a long-standing passion in Sports Analytics. Outside the realm of AI, you will usually find me playing basketball!

Mike Ziebel
Assistant Professor of Chemistry
BioMike Ziebel is an assistant professor in the department of chemistry at Stanford University. The Ziebel research group works at the interface of chemistry, physics, and materials science, focusing on using understanding of local electronic structure in inorganic solid-state materials to identify and synthesize new compounds hosting unconventional electronic and magnetic ground states. In particular, the group leverages manipulation techniques developed by the 2D materials community—namely the ability to stack, twist, and strain van der Waals materials near the few-layer limit—as a new design parameter to access electronic and magnetic behavior that would be inaccessible using conventional synthetic tools. By combining these methods with local structural and electronic probes, as well as bulk property measurements, the group works towards its ultimate goal to achieve on-demand control of lattice, charge, and spin degrees of freedom in quantum materials, for the development of more energy-efficient electrical and magnetic devices.
Prior to joining Stanford, Prof. Ziebel was a postdoctoral researcher at Columbia University, working jointly between the labs of Xavier Roy and Cory Dean to study correlated electron phases in new two-dimensional materials. He received his B.A. in chemistry from Northwestern University, where he pursued the synthesis of molecular electron donors for organic photovoltaic devices with Prof. Samuel Stupp, and his PhD in Chemistry from the University of California, Berkeley, where he worked with Prof. Jeff Long on electrically conductive metal–organic frameworks.
