Sergio Missana
Overseas Studies - Santiago, Bing Overseas Studies
BioSergio Missana is a professor of Literature and Film at Stanford's Overseas Studies Program in Santiago, Chile. He is the author of 17 books, including novels, essays, travel chronicles and children's books. His most recent works are the novels The Transentients (2021, translated into English by Jessica Powell) and Entremuros (Through the Walls, 2019), and Última salida (Last Exit, 2021), an essay on the humanities and the climate crisis. Missana studied Communications and Journalism at the University of Chile and earned an MA and PhD in Spanish at Stanford University. He was an editor of the report of the Truth and Reconciliation Commission, which investigated human rights violations committed by Chile's civil-military dictatorship between 1973 and 1990. He currently serves as secretary-general of the Climate Parliament, an international multi-partisan network of legislators working to combat climate change and protect the living planet. He divides his time between Madrid and Santiago.

William Mitch
Professor of Civil and Environmental Engineering
BioBill Mitch received a B.A. in Anthropology (Archaeology) from Harvard University in 1993. During his studies, he excavated at Mayan sites in Belize and surveyed sites dating from 2,000 B.C. in Louisiana. He switched fields by receiving a M.S. degree in Civil and Environmental Engineering at UC Berkeley. He worked for 3 years in environmental consulting, receiving his P.E. license in Civil Engineering in California. Returning to UC Berkeley in 2000, he received his PhD in Civil and Environmental Engineering in 2003. He moved to Yale as an assistant professor after graduation. His dissertation received the AEESP Outstanding Doctoral Dissertation Award in 2004. At Yale, he serves as the faculty advisor for the Yale Student Chapter of Engineers without Borders. In 2007, he won a NSF CAREER Award. He moved to Stanford University as an associate professor in 2013.
Employing a fundamental understanding of organic chemical reaction pathways, his research explores links between public health, engineering and sustainability. Topics of current interest include:
Public Health and Emerging Carcinogens: Recent changes to the disinfection processes fundamental to drinking and recreational water safety are creating a host of highly toxic byproducts linked to bladder cancer. We seek to understand how these compounds form so we can adjust the disinfection process to prevent their formation.
Global Warming and Oceanography: Oceanic dissolved organic matter is an important global carbon component, and has important impacts on the net flux of CO2 between the ocean and atmosphere. We seek to understand some of the important abiotic chemical reaction pathways responsible for carbon turnover.
Sustainability and Persistent Organic Pollutants (POPs): While PCBs have been banned in the US, we continue to produce a host of structurally similar chemicals. We seem to understand important chemical pathways responsible for POP destruction in the environment, so we can design less persistent and problematic chemicals in the future.
Engineering for Sustainable Wastewater Recycling: The shortage of clean water represents a critical challenge for the next century, and has necessitated the recycling of wastewater. We seek to understand ways of engineer this process in ways to minimize harmful byproduct formation.
Carbon Sequestration: We are evaluating the formation of nitrosamine and nitraminecarcinogens from amine-based carbon capture, as well as techniques to destroy any of these byproducts that form. -
Beverly S. Mitchell, M.D.
George E. Becker Professor of Medicine, Emerita
Current Research and Scholarly InterestsBeverly Mitchell's research relates to the development of new therapies for hematologic malignancies, including leukemias and myelodsyplastic syndromes. She is interested in preclinical proof of principle studies on mechanisms inducing cell death and on metabolic targets involving nucleic acid biosynthesis in malignant cells. She is also interested in the translation of these studies into clinical trials.

Donald Mitchell
Sr. Director, Academic Application Services, Technology & Digital Solutions
Current Role at StanfordDon Mitchell is the Director of the Academic Application Services (AAS) team in TDS. The AAS team focuses on the creation, integration, and deployment of web-based solutions for the Stanford University School of Medicine. We make use of a variety of hardware, software, and cloud technologies and partner closely with teams across TDS, the School of Medicine, and the University. We manage development, testing, and production environments, perform process mappings, set architecture standards, and provide consultations to teams looking to do software development or use SaaS solutions.
AAS' vision is to empower staff, faculty, and students with the integrated information, solutions, and IT resources needed to be successful and to support best-in-class administrative processes across the research and education missions.
