Joyce Gill
Ph.D. Student in Education, admitted Autumn 2026
Ph.D. Student in Education, admitted Autumn 2026BioI am an Education Data Science PhD student at Stanford University, advised by Dora Demszky. My research lies at the intersection of human-AI interaction, education, and natural language processing. I study the translational and implementation science of AI systems to develop scalable and sustainable education measures.
In May 2026, I received my Bachelor's with Honors in Computer Science, Statistics, and Digital Studies from Grinnell College. Previously, I interned at Carnegie Mellon University's Human-Computer Interaction Institute and Columbia University. -
Nabeel Gillani
Assistant Professor of Education
BioNabeel is an Assistant Professor of Education Data Science at the Stanford University Graduate School of Education, where he directs the Plural Connections Group (PCG — https://www.pluralconnections.org/). PCG explores how tools from computation and design might help advance pluralism—an inclusive response to differences in society—in ways that promote educational, economic, and social inclusion. More specifically, it seeks to apply methods from computational social science and human-computer interaction to foster more equitable connections and empathy across segregated spaces like schools, neighborhoods, and digital media environments.
Nabeel received his PhD from the MIT Media Lab. Prior to graduate school, he worked as a Product Manager and member of the analytics team at Khan Academy, where he helped design digital learning experiences. He studied Applied Mathematics and Computer Science at Brown University as an undergraduate, and received Masters degrees in Education and Machine Learning at the University of Oxford as a Rhodes Scholar. -
Joshua Gillard
Postdoctoral Scholar, Cardiovascular Medicine
BioDr. Josh Gillard is a Canadian biomedical data scientist with experience in bioinformatics, machine learning, and immunology. After completing a BSc and a MSc in Experimental Medicine at McGill university, he relocated to the Netherlands for his PhD in bioinformatics at Radboud University in Nijmegen. During his PhD, he gained experience analyzing and interpreting complex immunological data (bulk and single-cell transcriptomics, high-dimensional cytometry, high-throughput proteomics) derived from human observational or intervention studies (vaccination and experimental human infection). This work revealed molecular and cellular correlates of clinically important endpoints such as disease severity, symptom progression, and antibody responses. In 2022, Josh relocated to Stanford to join the Gaudilliere lab to develop and apply multi-omic data integration and machine learning techniques, establishing that early gestational immune dysregulation can predict preterm birth. Since 2024, in the Ashley lab, Josh is developing deep learning models to investigate aberrant splicing in cardiovascular disease.

William Gilly
Professor of Oceans
Current Research and Scholarly InterestsMy work has contributed to understanding electrical excitability in nerve & muscle in organisms ranging from brittle-stars to mammals. Current research addresses behavior, physiology and ecology of squid through field and lab approaches. Electronic tagging plus in situ video, acoustic and oceanographic methods are used to study behaviors and life history in the field. Lab work focuses on control of chromogenic behavior by the chromatophore network and of locomotion by the giant axon system.

Christophe Gimmler, MD, MFT
Casual - Non-Exempt, Multispecialty Anesthesiology
BioChristophe Gimmler, MD, MFT, Assistant Clinical Professor of Medicine (Affiliated) at Stanford School of Medicine;
Staff Physician, Medical Service, VA Palo Alto Health Care System;
Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist.
Associated Psychology Faculty, Palo Alto University
Clinical Monitor, Carhart-Harris Lab; Weill Institute for Neurosciences, UCSF
Study Physician, Open Mind Collective
_____________________________________________________________________________________________
After establishing and building the hospitalist and consult/liaison medicine service at the VA, Christophe now practices and teaches medical students and house staff in the primary care clinics there. He concurrently practices as a community psychotherapist and specializes in medical professionals. His central interest is the intersection of medicine and psychotherapy and, in particular, the application of psychological frameworks and skills to the practice of medicine, in addition to resiliency and burnout prevention. He developed the Medical Student Resiliency Skills Training program (MedReST) for the Stanford School of Medicine as well as the Resiliency Curriculum Series for the internal medicine residency program. He received as undergraduate degree in biology and psychology and an MD from the University of Virginia, completed his internal medicine residency at Stanford.
Christophe received a Master’s in Counseling Psychology from Sofia University. He has a private practice psychotherapy practice in Los Altos seeing adults and couples specializing in health care professionals (www.openpaththerapy.one). After completing a certificate in psychedelic-assisted psychotherapy at the Berkeley Center for the Science of Psychedelics, Christophe works as a Clinical Monitor at the Carhart-Harris Lab at UCSF and the Stanford Anesthesia Dream Project with the Heifets Lab, as well as a study physician at Open Mind Collective in San Francsico.

Lisa Giocomo
Professor of Neurobiology
Current Research and Scholarly InterestsMy laboratory studies the cellular and molecular mechanisms underlying the organization of cortical circuits important for spatial navigation and memory. We are particularly focused on medial entorhinal cortex, where many neurons fire in spatially specific patterns and thus offer a measurable output for molecular manipulations. We combine electrophysiology, genetic approaches and behavioral paradigms to unravel the mechanisms and behavioral relevance of non-sensory cortical organization. Our first line of research is focused on determining the cellular and molecular components crucial to the neural representation of external space by functionally defined cell types in entorhinal cortex (grid, border and head direction cells). We plan to use specific targeting of ion channels, combined with in vivo tetrode recordings, to determine how channel dynamics influence the neural representation of space in the behaving animal. A second, parallel line of research, utilizes a combination of in vivo and in vitro methods to further parse out ionic expression patterns in entorhinal cortices and determine how gradients in ion channels develop. Ultimately, our work aims to understand the ontogenesis and relevance of medial entorhinal cortical topography in spatial memory and navigation.
