W. E. Moerner
Harry S. Mosher Professor and Professor, by courtesy, of Applied Physics
Current Research and Scholarly InterestsLaser spectroscopy and microscopy of single molecules to probe biological systems, one biomolecule at a time. Primary thrusts: fluorescence microscopy far beyond the optical diffraction limit (PALM/STORM/STED), methods for 3D optical microscopy in cells, and trapping of single biomolecules in solution for extended study. We explore protein localization patterns in bacteria, structures of amyloid aggregates in cells, signaling proteins in the primary cilium, and dynamics of DNA and RNA.

Siavash Moghadami
Ph.D. Student in Chemical and Systems Biology, admitted Summer 2022
BioSiavash is a Ph.D. student in the Department of Chemical and Systems Biology at Stanford University School of Medicine, where he is advised by Professor Carolyn Bertozzi. His research focuses on the chemical biology of human aging, resilience, and homeostasis.
Before Stanford, Siavash earned his B.S./M.S. in Biochemistry and Chemical Biology from the University of California, San Diego, graduating summa cum laude with the highest departmental distinction and honors.
An immigrant pursuing the American dream, Siavash is deeply grateful to the United States for giving him a new home and a path to higher education and scientific discovery. He sees his research on aging as a way to give back, honoring the opportunities he found here while helping protect the health and independence of his own loved ones and others. -
