Zeeshan Ahmed
Associate Professor of Particle Physics and Astrophysics
BioI am an observational cosmologist, and an experimental physicist. I build ultra-low-noise detectors using superconducting and quantum sensing techniques, and use them in experiments and instrumentation for cosmology. I currently spend most of my time investigating the inflation paradigm of standard cosmology, using the cosmic microwave background (CMB). Recently, I've become interested in using the weak lensing of the CMB in conjunction with galaxy surveys to study the growth of large-scale structure in the universe.
I received my PhD in particle astrophysics from Caltech in 2012, working on direct detection of WIMP dark matter with the CDMS-II experiment. I then shifted my effort to searching for inflation with the CMB. I was a postdoctoral scholar at Stanford through 2015 before being appointed as a Wolfgang Panofsky Fellow at SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory. In 2017, I won a DOE Office of Science Early Career Award to work on new signal transduction and superconducting multiplexing techniques for next-generation CMB cameras. In 2020, I was appointed as a Lead Scientist at SLAC, and in 2023, I was appointed Associate Professor of Particle Physics and Astrophysics at Stanford and SLAC. I serve as CMB department head in the Fundamental Physics Directorate at SLAC. I also serve as scientific project manager for the bring up of SLAC's Detector Microfabrication Facility for the development of superconducting and quantum sensors and devices. -
Muhammad Ahmed Mohsin
Ph.D. Student in Electrical Engineering, admitted Winter 2025
BioI am a Ph.D. student @ Stanford advised by Dr. John Cioffi. I completed my undergraduate from NUST, Pakistan (2024). My research domain incorporates areas of Machine Learning, Reinforcement Learning and Wireless Communications.

Geun Ho Ahn
Postdoctoral Scholar, Electrical Engineering
BioI am a postdoctoral researcher at Stanford University, specializing in integrated photonics, material sciences, and computational optimization to develop innovative photonic-electronic systems for optical interconnects, metrology, and quantum science.
I earned my Ph.D. in Electrical Engineering from Stanford University, where I worked with Professor Jelena Vuckovic as a SGF fellow and FMA fellow on integrated photonics system through heterogeneous integration and photonic inverse design. -

So Hee "Naomi" Ahn
Casual, Medicine - Med/Family and Community Medicine
BioNaomi is a fourth-year medical student at Seoul National University, expecting to graduate in February 2024. She earned her bachelor's degree Summa Cum Laude from Washington University in St. Louis in December 2018, majoring in Biology and minoring in Chinese Language & Culture. Although she has quite a long way to go before becoming a compassionate physician-scientist, Naomi has accumulated many years of research and clinical experience in the field of medicine, ranging from the molecular level to the population level. Her research interests lie in genomics, psychosomatic medicine, and global health.

T. M. Jensen Ahokovi
Graduate, Economics
BioI’m a predoctoral research fellow at the Stanford Institute for Economic Policy Research (SIEPR) and the STAX Lab (Stanford Initiative on Business, Taxation, and Society) at the Graduate School of Business, where I work with Professors Ran Abramitzky and Rebecca Lester.
My interests lie at the intersection of labor and urban economics, public finance, and economic history. I'm particularly interested in how labor markets and cities evolve over time—and how government interventions through taxation, regulation, and social programs shape both individual trajectories and broader economic outcomes.
Previously, I was a research assistant in the Economic Policy Studies department at the American Enterprise Institute (AEI), where I primarily supported the work of PhD economists and Senior Fellows Stan Veuger, Vincent Smith, and Paul Kupiec.
I earned my BA in the Quantitative Economics Concentration from the University of Hawai‘i at Mānoa in summer 2024. Before AEI, I held research roles at the University of Hawai‘i Economic Research Organization (UHERO), the Center for Entrepreneurship and Economic Education at Hawai‘i Pacific University, and the Grassroot Institute of Hawai‘i. I plan to pursue a PhD in economics and/or public policy in the near future.
