Jamie Zeitzer
Professor (Research) of Psychiatry and Behavioral Sciences (Sleep Medicine)
Current Research and Scholarly InterestsDr. Zeitzer is a circadian physiologist specializing in the understanding of the impact of light on circadian rhythms and other aspects of non-image forming light perception.
He examines the manner in which humans respond to light and ways to manipulate this responsiveness, with direct application to jet lag, shift work, and altered sleep timing in teens. Dr. Zeitzer has also pioneered the use of actigraphy in the determination of epiphenomenal markers of psychiatric disorders. -

Hanfeng Zhai
Ph.D. Student in Mechanical Engineering, admitted Autumn 2023
BioI study mechanics of materials using computer simulations across multiple length and time scales. I am currently working on understanding how material defects and microstructures govern macroscopic mechanical behaviors. This includes constructing plasticity theory from statistics of dislocations, homogenization theory of digital rocks, and developing data-driven methods for multiscale simulations.
I did Research Interns at Mitsubishi Electric Research Labs (working on machine learning for dynamical and energy systems) and Tokyo Electron (working on computational modeling of semiconductor manufacturing).
I am currently teaching (TA & co-lecture) for Elasticity & Inelasticity (ME340). I served as the TA for Finite Element Method (ME335A). -

An Ni Zhang
Postdoctoral Scholar, Stanford Cancer Institute
BioAnni obtained her Ph.D. in Dr. James Johnson and Dr. Janel Kopp's labs at the University of British Columbia. Her Ph.D. work showed that hyperinsulinemia contributes to pancreatic cancer development. Her work also showed that insulin directly acted via the insulin receptors in pancreatic acinar cells to increase digestive enzyme production, thereby generating an inflammatory condition that accelerates neoplastic transformation. She is now working at Diehn lab to investigate the mechanisms of KEAP1 mutation-induced immunotherapy resistance in lung cancer.
