Rajan Plumley
Visiting Physicist, SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory
BioI am a PhD Candidate at Carnegie Mellon University and Visiting Physicist at SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory and the Stanford Institute for Materials and Energy Sciences. My research focuses on using state-of-the-art X-ray facilities such as the Linac Coherent Light Source (LCLS) at SLAC to study ultra-fast dynamics in materials. I am especially interested in how X-ray speckle phenomena can be used to understand the role fluctuations play in the emergence of novel quantum phases in low-dimensional materials.

Molleigh Preefer
Associate Scientist, SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory
BioDr. Molleigh Preefer is an Associate Staff Scientist at the Stanford Synchrotron Radiation Lightsource (SSRL). She initially worked at SSRL as a postdoctoral researcher using X-rays to study batteries through a combination of microscopy, diffraction, and spectroscopy. Her current research focus as associate staff scientist is studying electrochemical systems and synthesis, with a particular interest in enabling operando X-ray experiments when materials are pushed far from equilibrium. In addition to her research interests, she supports the transmission X-ray microscopy beamline (BL6-2) and the battery user program on the diffraction beamlines within the Materials Sciences Division.

Anna Rasmussen
Research Assoc-Experimental, SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory
BioI am interested in how Earth’s smallest constituents, microbes, cycle nutrients in aquatic ecosystems. I earned my PhD from the Department of Earth System Science at Stanford University focused on microbial ecology. I used molecular and biogeochemical approaches to understand the abundance, distribution, and activity of nitrifying bacteria and archaea in San Francisco Bay. My research used DNA, RNA, nitrification rate, and water quality data to uncover and characterize recurring massive ammonia-oxidizing archaea blooms in South Bay. For my postdoctoral work, I will use metagenomics to study subsurface microbial ecology in a river floodplain in collaboration with the Floodplain Hydro-Biogeochemistry Scientific Focus Area managed by a team at the SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory.
