Andrew Zolopa
Professor of Medicine (Infectious Diseases) at the Stanford University Medical Center, Emeritus
Current Research and Scholarly InterestsDr. Zolopas research applies a variety of clinical epidemiologic methods in an effort to optimize antiretroviral therapy and understand the impact of drug resistance on response to ARV. Areas of focus include the clinical application of resistance testing in optimizing antiretroviral therapy, clinical cohorts, trials of antiretroviral therapies and population-based epidemiologic evaluation of HIV resistance and efficacy of ARV therapy. More recently studies focused on premature aging in HIV.

Alfred Zong
Assistant Professor of Physics and Applied Physics
BioI am an assistant professor in the Departments of Physics and of Applied Physics, and my group focuses on the study of light-induced non-equilibrium phenomena in quantum materials. To capture the ultrafast dynamics on the nanoscale, we develop a variety of techniques such as ultrafast electron diffraction and microscopy, attosecond transient absorption spectroscopy, and coherent diffraction imaging. These time-resolved probes are integrated with a complex sample environment such as in-situ strain and electrostatic gating in order to design, discover, and understand non-equilibrium phases of quantum materials.
We are seeking motivated undergraduates, graduate students, and postdocs to join the group. Please email me directly to discuss opportunities.

Emily Yu Zong
Visiting Scholar, East Asian Languages and Cultures
BioEmily Yu Zong (cited name: Zong, Emily Yu) works across environmental humanities, critical migration studies, and posthumanist theory to examine how migrant and diasporic cultural imaginations reshape understandings of climate change and planetary social thought. Drawing on both scholarly analysis and creative practice, she engages how literature, film, and new media technologies contribute to collaborative survival with the more-than-human earth.
Her work is informed by lived experience across Australia, China, and Hong Kong and attends to the crossovers and tensions between colonial powers, Indigenous knowledges, and migrant placemaking. Across these contexts, she develops a research agenda centered on feminist, queer, anti-racist, and decolonial thought and the expansion of migrant cosmopolitics and hybrid ecologies as pathways to multispecies flourishing.
She is the author of Planetarity from Below: Decolonial Ecopoetics of Migration and Diaspora (University of Michigan Press, 2026) and co-editor of a double special issue on Decolonial Asian Diasporic Ecocriticism, forthcoming in Ariel (2026, 57: 3-4). Her work has appeared in journals including Convergence: The International Journal of Research into New Media Technologies, ISLE: Interdisciplinary Studies in Literature and Environment, Journal of Postcolonial Writing, Critique: Studies in Contemporary Fiction, Journal of Australian Studies, LIT, Journal of Intercultural Studies, as well as the edited volume, The Cambridge History of the Australian Novel.
Alongside her academic research, she develops practice-based projects that bring together environmental storytelling, health humanities, and sensory and immersive media. Her exhibitions and collaborative works include Waterborne 水生 (2022), a climate art exhibition and publication on water and ocean waste; Bovine Calling 喚 / 幻牛 (2023), a virtual reality film and exhibition on free-foaming cows and water buffalo in Hong Kong; Thus, Soil 故土 (2024), an exhibition exploring soil poetics and ecological affect, and Healing Atmospheres (2026), a virtual reality film developed in collaboration with healthcare practitioners that explores sensory environments of care and disability.
She is currently working on two projects: one on the decolonial blue humanities in ocean literature and media, and another on weather and heat imaginations among migrant domestic workers in Hong Kong in the context of climate adaptation. -
Andrea Zorzi
Ph.D. Student in Geological Sciences, admitted Autumn 2020
BioBorn in Venice, Italy, I earned my BSc in Aerospace Engineering at Università degli Studi di Padova in 2017. For my MSc degree, I moved to the Netherlands and graduated in Aerospace Engineering at TU Delft in 2019, focusing on space flight, planetary sciences and radiative transfer modeling. Afterwards, I spent a year at the Max Planck Institute for Solar System Research in Göttingen (Germany), conducting research on neural network applications for cometary gas expansion studies.
I've joined Stanford as a GS graduate student in Fall 2020 and I am part of the Planetary Modeling Group led by Prof. Schaefer.
My focus is on planetary impacts, how they affect the climate and chemical evolution of the atmospheres of planets in their early stages.

James Zou
Associate Professor of Biomedical Data Science and, by courtesy, of Computer Science and of Electrical Engineering
Current Research and Scholarly InterestsMy group works on both foundations of statistical machine learning and applications in biomedicine and healthcare. We develop new technologies that make ML more accountable to humans, more reliable/robust and reveals core scientific insights.
We want our ML to be impactful and beneficial, and as such, we are deeply motivated by transformative applications in biotech and health. We collaborate with and advise many academic and industry groups.
