Erika Schillinger
Clinical Professor, Medicine - Primary Care and Population Health
Current Research and Scholarly InterestsMy passion is clinical skills education: the patient's experience of health and healthcare, doctor-patient communication, professionalism and physical exam. I am focused on curriculum design and innovation, having helped develop the Continuity of Care Clerkship, the clinical skills curriculum in Practice of Medicine, the Family Medicine core clerkship, outpatient faculty development modules and the SHIELD course (Stanford Healthcare Innovations and Experiential Learning Directive).

Michel Schimpf
Graduate, Medicine, Dermatology
BioMichel Schimpf is a PhD candidate affiliated with Stanford and Cambridge, working at the intersection of AI and Psychology. His research investigates how large language model–based systems can be used to scale behavior change interventions, with a focus on goal setting, dietary behavior, and emotional well-being. Michel has a background in Computer Science, completing his Bachelor's at TUM with a minor in Psychology at LMU Munich. He previously worked on alignment research at Mistral. Alongside his academic work, he co-founded wahl.chat, a chatbot for political education that reached over 250,000 users, and Techdalo, a nonprofit teaching programming skills to Colombian students.

Alain Schläpfer
Social Science Research Scholar, Center on Democracy, Development, and the Rule of Law
BioAlain Schläpfer is a Social Science Research Scholar at the Center on Democracy, Development and the Rule of Law, and a Lecturer in the Ford Dorsey Master's in International Policy. His research examines the evolution of cooperation among individuals and groups, with a particular emphasis on the role of reputational concerns. He also investigates the formation of preferences and of cultural norms, as well as their effects on behavior and long term outcomes. Alain's research has been published in journals in political science, economics and biology, and makes use of formal modelling, causal identification and computer simulations. Originally from Switzerland, Alain received his PhD from Universitat Pompeu Fabra in Barcelona, Spain.

Monika Schleier-Smith
Associate Professor of Physics
Current Research and Scholarly InterestsIn between the few-particle realm where we have mastered quantum mechanics and the macroscopic domain describable by classical physics, there lies a broad swath of territory where quantum effects are relevant but still largely out of our control and partly beyond our comprehension. This territory includes metrological instruments whose precision is limited by the quantum projection noise of millions of atoms; and materials whose bulk properties emerge from many-body interactions intractable to simulation on classical computers. Professor Schleier-Smith’s research aims to advance our control and understanding of many-particle quantum systems by engineering new quantum states and Hamiltonians with ensembles of laser-cooled atoms.
