Shaul Hestrin, PhD
Professor of Comparative Medicine
Current Research and Scholarly InterestsThe main interest of my lab is to understand how the properties of neocortical neurons, the circuits they form and the inputs they receive give rise to neuronal activity and behavior. Our approach includes behavioral studies, two-photon calcium imaging, in vivo whole cell recording in behaving animals and optogenetic methods to activate or to silence the activity of cortical neurons.

Christina Hewko
Postdoctoral Scholar, Education
BioChristina Hewko is a postdoctoral fellow in the Stanford Accelerator for Learning’s Equity in Learning Initiative and Dr. Maisha T. Winn’s Futuring for Equity Lab. In addition, she is a Stanford PRISM Baker Fellow. As an interdisciplinary education researcher, she draws on justice-oriented frameworks, the learning sciences, and teacher education to explore co-designed learning environments. She is especially interested in the joint activity and processes that support teachers’ and community members’ learning, well-being, and development of justice-oriented teaching practices. While at Stanford she is exploring possibilities for land-based pedagogies and teacher learning about restorative and Ethnic Studies teaching practices.

Mathis Heyer
Ph.D. Student in Energy Science and Engineering, admitted Autumn 2024
BioMathis Heyer, from Kiel, Germany, is pursuing a Ph.D. in Energy Science & Engineering at the Stanford Doerr School of Sustainability. He holds a bachelor’s degree in Mechanical Engineering and a master’s degree in Process Systems Engineering from RWTH Aachen University, Germany, as well as a master’s degree in Management Science and Engineering from Tsinghua University in Beijing.
His research in the Environmental Assessment and Optimization Group at Stanford (https://eao.stanford.edu/) focuses on advancing the understanding of complex energy and process systems through mathematical modeling and optimization. Mathis' work builds on his previous research experiences at the Climate Policy Lab at ETH Zurich and the Sustainable Reaction Engineering Group at Cambridge University. Outside of his academic pursuits, Mathis enjoys volunteering with organizations such as "Engineers Without Borders" and "Europe Meets School" both involved in promoting intercultural exchange.
Mathis has been recognized as a Klaus-Murmann Fellow by the Foundation of German Business (sdw) while at RWTH Aachen and is currently an ERP Fellow with the German Academic Scholarship Foundation and a recipient of the SGF Fellowship. -

Sebastián Hidalgo
Graduate, Communication
BioSebastián Hidalgo is a photographer, investigative reporter, and a John S. Knight Journalism Fellow focusing on the intersections of local law and U.S. immigration enforcement. His 2024 investigation into alleged beating of migrant day laborers at a Chicago Home Depot by off-duty police officers sparked an a federal lawsuit. Hidalgo contributed to a Pulitzer Prize-winning project for City Bureau on missing Black women and girls, and leads civic conversations on the importance of visuals to distill disinformation and fear. Sebastián proudly comes from Chicago's Pilsen neighborhood, a predominate working-class migrant community known for its historic contributions to labor and art movements. His photographic work is permanently housed in the Library of Congress, the Harvard Art Museums, and the National Museum of Mexican Fine Art.

William Hiesinger, MD
Associate Professor of Cardiothoracic Surgery (Adult Cardiac Surgery)
BioDr. Hiesinger is a board-certified, fellowship-trained specialist in adult cardiac surgery. He is also an associate professor in the Department of Cardiothoracic Surgery at Stanford University School of Medicine.
Dr. Hiesinger’s clinical focus encompasses the full spectrum of cardiothoracic conditions and treatment approaches, such as heart transplantation, mitral and aortic valve repair, surgical treatment for hypertrophic cardiomyopathy, coronary artery bypass, pulmonary thromboendarterectomy (PTE), and complex thoracic aortic procedures. He serves as Surgical Director of the Stanford Mechanical Circulatory Support Program, where he leads and directs the surgical implantation of ventricular assist devices (VADs) in patients with end-stage heart failure. He also serves as Surgical Director for the Stanford Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy Center and the Stanford Chronic Thromboembolic Pulmonary Hypertension (CTEPH) Program.
The National Institutes of Health and the Thoracic Surgery Foundation have awarded funds to support Dr. Hiesinger’s research. In the Stanford Cardiothoracic Therapeutics and Surgery Laboratory, Dr. Hiesinger's research spans the disciplines of computer science and cardiovascular biology, and he endeavors to build novel foundational deep learning systems designed to better represent and process high-dimensional inputs and apply these systems towards clinical problems. Additionally, his lab investigates bioengineered devices, tissue engineering, and angiogenic cytokine therapy for the treatment of heart failure.
He has published extensively and his work has appeared in Nature Communications, Nature Machine Intelligence, the Journal of Heart and Lung Transplantation, Circulation Heart Failure, the Journal of Thoracic and Cardiovascular Surgery, Journal of Vascular Surgery, and elsewhere.
He teaches courses on cardiothoracic surgery skills. He also advises surgeons of the future.
Dr. Hiesinger has won awards for his research and scholarship, including the Surgical Resident of the Year Award, Jonathan E. Rhoads Research Award, Clyde F. Baker Research Prize, and I.S. Ravdin Prize, all from his alma mater, the University of Pennsylvania. He was a finalist for the Vivien Thomas Young Investigator Award from the American Heart Association.
Dr. Hiesinger is a member of the American Association for Thoracic Surgery and serves on the Cardiac Surgery Biology Club. He is also a member of the Society of Thoracic Surgeons and serves on the American Heart Association Council for Cardiothoracic and Vascular Surgery.
