Richard Lewis
Professor of Molecular and Cellular Physiology, Emeritus
Current Research and Scholarly InterestsWe study molecular mechanisms of calcium signaling with a focus on store-operated CRAC channels and their essential roles in T cell development and function. Currently we aim to define the molecular mechanism for CRAC channel activation and the means by which calcium signal dynamics mediate specific activation of transcription factors and T-cell genes during development.

Sean Hardesty Lewis
Ai4all Graduate Mentor, Stanford Pre-Collegiate Studies
Staff, Stanford Pre-Collegiate StudiesBioSean Hardesty Lewis is a researcher in embodied AI and robot perception who builds large-scale data, simulation, and sensing systems for world models and decision-making. He is an M.S. student in Information Systems at Cornell Tech, where he is advised by Wendy Ju and Anthony Townsend. His research focuses on world models that connect perception to planning for autonomous systems, with interests in embodied scene understanding, generative simulation, semantic mapping, and uncertainty-aware decision-making. He develops scalable multimodal datasets, real-time sensing systems, and interactive 3D environments, and releases open tools and evaluations that support reproducible research. Before joining Cornell, he earned a B.S. in Mathematics from The University of Texas at Austin, where he conducted research in the Urban Information Lab with Junfeng Jiao. His work has appeared in the proceedings of SIGGRAPH and at AAAI and NeurIPS workshops, and his research is supported by the NSF, the City of Austin, and Dell Technologies. He also serves as a Graduate Mentor for Stanford AI4ALL.
