Rita Kamani-Renedo
Ph.D. Student in Education, admitted Autumn 2021
Research Asst-Graduate, Humanities and Sciences InitiativesCurrent Research and Scholarly InterestsMy primary research sits at the intersections of im/migration, education, racialization, and language. I am an interdisciplinary scholar who draws on sociology, linguistic and educational anthropology, ethnic studies, and critical theory to examine and understand the experiences of im/migrant and transnational youth within educational contexts. I am also interested in thinking about how teachers can support their students' languages, literacies, and civic identities in classrooms. I am a former teacher of multilingual, recently-arrived im/migrant youth.

Seraphine Kamayirese
Postdoctoral Scholar, Bioengineering
BioI am a protein and peptide biochemist with a focus on biophysical characterization, structural activity relationship (SAR)study, and design and optimization of peptides targeting disease-relevant proteins. My Ph.D. research focused on designing and optimizing ligands that target the 14-3-3ε protein to disrupt its interaction with the cell cycle regulator CDC25A, an interaction known to suppress apoptosis in squamous cell carcinoma. Inhibiting this pathway is expected to promote apoptosis in cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma. At Stanford University, I am expanding my research to study antimicrobial peptidoids and peptides such as LL-37 and their interactions with amyloid beta peptides, and the potential application of the resulting complexes as antiviral therapeutics. I bring strong experience in rational peptide design, structural activity relationship studies, molecular dynamics simulations, peptides and peptoids synthesis and purification, protein expression, and biophysical assays. My research has led to multiple peer-reviewed publications, presentations at national and international conferences, and awards, including the Young Investigator Poster Award at the American Peptide Symposium.
