Quyen Nguyen-Hoang
Ph.D. Student in Art History, admitted Autumn 2022
BioQuyên Nguyễn-Hoàng is a writer and translator born in Hà Nội.
Her recent translations include the English translation of Chronicles of a Village, a novel by Nguyễn Thanh Hiện (Yale University Press 2024), and the Vietnamese translation of Samuel Caleb Wee’s poetry collection https://everything.is/ (AJAR Press 2024).
While a curator at Sàn Art, she wrote Masked Force (2022), a bilingual book interleaved with the war photographs of Võ An Khánh. Her poems, essays and translations have appeared in Poetry, Jacket2, Modern Poetry in Translation and other venues. -
Jennifer Ni
Adjunct Clinical Assistant Professor, Pediatrics - Endocrinology
BioI grew up mainly in the Bay Area of California, attending UC Berkeley for undergraduate (Go Bears!) with a major in Bioengineering. After a gap year working at a biotech start up, I traveled to the East Coast for medical school at the University of Pittsburgh, and then back to my birth state of Texas for residency at UT Southwestern. During my experiences in medical school and residency, I discovered that I enjoyed the logic of thinking through signaling pathways to understand the pathophysiology of endocrine disorders. In the future, I hope to combine my background in engineering with my passion for medicine to advance the field of endocrinology, especially in diabetes management. I am very excited to return to the Bay Area for fellowship in Pediatric Endocrinology. Outside of the hospital, I enjoy baking sweet treats, trying new restaurants, and running.

Sabrina Nicacio
Masters Student in Aeronautics and Astronautics, admitted Autumn 2025
BioSabrina Nicacio is a Knight-Hennessy Scholar and graduate student in Aeronautics and Astronautics at Stanford University, specializing in Guidance, Navigation, and Control (GNC). She earned her B.S.E. in Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering from Princeton University with a Minor in Robotics and Intelligent Systems.
Sabrina has delivered technical results across leading aerospace institutions—designing flight hardware for Starship launch operations at SpaceX, developing multi-robot navigation algorithms for NASA JPL’s CADRE lunar mission at Stanford, and improving heat treatment processes for 3D-printed turbine blades at MIT. Her senior thesis at Princeton introduced a fuel-optimal reconfiguration framework for satellite swarms, applying convex optimization to orbital dynamics.
Sabrina is focused on building scalable, autonomous systems for spacecraft coordination and precision navigation. Her work reflects a deep technical foundation and a drive to solve mission-critical challenges in spaceflight. -
Ariadne Nichol
Affiliate, Department Funds
Resident in MedicineBioAriadne Nichol is a resident physician in Internal Medicine at Stanford and a researcher at the Stanford Center for Biomedical Ethics. She earned her bachelor’s degree in Human Biology from Stanford University, where she graduated with Honors in Ethics in Society and was named a Public Service Scholar. She earned her medical degree from the UC San Diego School of Medicine, where she developed a biomedical ethics course and received a teaching award from the School of Medicine. She has previously worked on global public health research ethics topics with the World Health Organization, Doctors Without Borders, and the National Public Health Organization of Greece. Her work has been published in several peer-reviewed journals, including the American Journal of Bioethics, PLOS ONE, and JAMA Network Open. Her research interests include ethical issues in biomedical research involving vulnerable populations, as well as the ethical and social implications of big data and machine learning in health care and for precision medicine.

Mark Nicolls
Stanford University Professor of Pulmonary and Critical Care Medicine
Current Research and Scholarly InterestsOur lab focuses primarily on the contribution of the immune response to lung disease. We are specifically examining the contribution of inflammation to the development of vascular injury in transplantation, pulmonary hypertension and lymphedema.

Teresa Nicolson, PhD
Edward C. and Amy H. Sewall Professor
Current Research and Scholarly InterestsOur aim is to understand the molecular basis of hearing and balance. We use zebrafish as our model system, which offers distinct advantages for imaging auditory/vestibular and lateral line hair cells in intact animals. Our experiments focus on the function of deafness genes isolated from forward genetic screens and developmental aspects of sensory hair-cell activity and synaptogenesis.

Adam Nielander
Staff Scientist, Energy Sciences
BioMy research focuses in the areas electrocatalysis, electrolysis, and solar-driven chemical fuel production. We develop catalysts, instrumentation, methodologies, and device engineering/designs for improved production of chemical fuels (e.g., H2, NH3, ethanol) from abundant feedstocks (e.g., H2O, N2, CO2). This work includes in situ and operando studies of catalyst/ionomer interfaces under operating conditions and is underpinned by complementary driving aims to develop next-generation electrochemical technologies and to elucidate the fundamental principles that dictate the performance of sustainably-driven electrochemical processes.

Koen Nieman
Professor of Medicine (Cardiovascular Medicine) and of Radiology (CV Imaging)
Current Research and Scholarly InterestsDr Nieman investigates advanced cardiac imaging techniques. Current projects focus on the development of functional CT application for hemodynamic interpretation of coronary artery disease, and the clinical validation of cardiac CT in the management of patients with ischemic heart disease.
