Harold Hwang
Director, Stanford Institute for Materials and Energy Sciences (SIMES), Shadi and Omid Farokhzad Professor in the School of Humanities and Sciences, Professor of Photon Science and Senior Fellow at the Precourt Institute for Energy
BioHarold Y. Hwang is the Shadi and Omid Farokhzad Professor in the School of Humanities and Sciences, of Applied Physics (Stanford University), of Photon Science (SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory), Senior Fellow of the Precourt Institute for Energy, and Director of the Stanford Institute for Materials and Energy Sciences. He received a BS in Physics, BS and MS in Electrical Engineering from MIT (1993), and a PhD in Physics from Princeton University (1997). He was formerly a Member of Technical Staff at Bell Laboratories (1996-2003) and on the faculty at the University of Tokyo (2003-2010). His research is in condensed matter and materials physics, with a focus on correlated electrons and emergent phenomena in quantum materials, and heterostructures for energy applications and devices.

Aharon Kapitulnik
Theodore and Sydney Rosenberg Professor of Applied Physics and Professor of Physics
BioAharon Kapitulnik is the Theodore and Sydney Rosenberg Professor in Applied Physics at the Departments of Applied Physics and Physics at Stanford University. His research focuses on experimental condensed matter physics, while opportunistically, also apply his methods to tabletop experimental studies of fundamental phenomena in physics. His recent studies cover a broad spectrum of phenomena associated with the behavior of correlated and disordered electron systems, particularly in reduced dimensions, and the development of effective instrumentation to detect subtle signatures of physical phenomena.
Among other recognitions, his activities earned him the Alfred P. Sloan Fellowship (1986-90), a Presidential Young Investigator Award (1987-92), a Sackler Scholar at Tel-Aviv University (2006), the Heike Kamerlingh Onnes Prize for Superconductivity Experiment (2009), a RTRA (Le Triangle de la Physique) Senior Chair (2010), and the Oliver Buckley Condensed Matter Prize of the American Physical Society (2015). Aharon Kapitulnik is a Fellow of the American Physical Society, a Fellow of the American Academy of Arts and Sciences, a Fellow of the American Association for the Advancement of Science and a member of the National Academy of Sciences. Kapitulnik holds a Ph.D. in Physics from Tel-Aviv University (1984).
