Clayton Olash
Affiliate, Psychiatry and Behavioral Sciences
BioClayton Olash, MD is a psychiatry resident at the Medical University of South Carolina and an affiliate researcher with Stanford University. His work bridges psychiatry, neuroscience, and contemplative traditions, with a focus on how altered states of consciousness can catalyze lasting psychological change.
Clayton's current research spans multiple projects, including studies on ibogaine and its impact on the default mode network, rapid-acting neuromodulation techniques such as SAINT TMS combined with meditation, and a novel high-dose electrotherapy device for home-based treatment of depression. His broader aim is to understand how psychedelics, brain stimulation, and meditative practices can modulate self-related processing and promote enduring well-being.
With backgrounds in philosophy, psychology, and medicine, Clayton's work emphasizes integration: uniting ancient contemplative wisdom with modern neuroscience and emerging technologies. His long-term goal is to develop translational models of care that transform transient altered states into sustainable therapeutic traits. -
Julian Olaya Restrepo
Postdoctoral Scholar, Biology
BioJulián’s (he\his) research seeks to understand and strengthen the relationships between marine ecosystems, the communities that depend on them, and the policies that shape their management. Positioned at the intersection of ecology, spatial analysis, and social science, his work produces actionable insights to support the conservation and sustainable governance of marine systems. He approaches the ocean as a socioecological system—an integrated network where natural and human components co-evolve—and applies a transdisciplinary lens to address urgent global challenges, including biodiversity loss, fisheries collapse, and climate change. At Stanford University, he has led research on nature-based solutions, developing spatially explicit fishery models that assess how coral reef and mangrove restoration can enhance ecological resilience and improve fisheries outcomes for coastal communities across the Caribbean and U.S.
