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!

Participatory System Dynamics vs Audit and Feedback: A Cluster Randomized Trial of Mechanisms Of Implementation Change to Expand Reach of Evidence-Based Addiction and Mental Health Care (R01DA046651)
The most common reasons Veterans seek VA addiction and mental health care is for help with opioid and alcohol misuse, depression and PTSD. Research evidence has established highly effective treatments that prevent relapse, overdose and suicide, but even with policy mandates, performance metrics, and electronic health records to fix the problem, these treatments may only reach 3-28% of patients. This study tests participatory business engineering methods to better meet the addiction and mental health needs of Veterans and the U.S. population.
Participatory System Dynamics for Evidence-Based Addiction and Mental Healthcare (R21DA042198)
Limited access and delays to high-quality, evidence-based mental health and addiction treatments can lead to patients getting too little or ineffective care and contribute to chronic patient impairment, relapse, and death by suicide or overdose. This study evaluates a system for resolving problems with patient flow and organization in health care systems, using electronic medical record systems and a high-level of input from healthcare leadership, frontline providers and patients.

Participatory System Dynamics vs Usual Quality Improvement: Is Staff Use of Simulation an Effective, Scalable and Affordable Way to Improve Timely Veteran Access to High-quality Mental Health Care? (I01HX002521)
Participatory system dynamics (PSD) helps improve quality with existing resources, critical in mental health and all VA health care. PSD uses learning simulations to improve staff decisions, showing how goals for quality can best be achieved given local resources and constraints. We aim to significantly increase the proportion of patients who start and complete evidence-based care, and determine the costs of using PSD for improvement.
