Ariel Stilerman
Assistant Professor of East Asian Languages and Cultures
BioI study premodern Japan through its manuscripts, objects, and languages.
I advocate for a “maker mindset” in the humanities. My research is just as much about building and doing as about reading and writing. My courses involve hands-on experiences and are often co-taught with colleagues in Classics, English, Religion, History, Mechanical Engineering, or Physics.
My first book, Court Poetry and the Culture of Learning in Japan (Harvard, 2026), charts the transformation of the poetry of the imperial court into a shared language for military and priestly elites, lower-ranking warriors, and eventually urban merchants.
My second project, Meet the People Who Built Japan, investigates the emergence of a “culture of work” in early medieval manuscripts and artifacts.
I welcome inquiries from students interested in classical through early modern Japanese literature through the Department of East Asian Languages and Cultures, as well as those pursuing transdisciplinary work through the program in Modern Thought and Literature, and grad makers in the humanities through Making and Creative Praxis.
More broadly, I am interested in how we engage with the world through our senses and skills, exploring fields such as the tea ceremony, psychoanalysis, woodworking, sailing, olfactory cultures, technology, and design. -
Maxi Corona Stiller
Affiliate, Psychology
BioMaxi is a Masters student in Clinical Psychology at the University of Technology Dresden, Germany. Her research explores how emotional processes influence mental health, combining insights from clinical psychology, affective science, and neuroscience. She has a particular interest in fMRI and has previously studied neural activity and connectivity related to emotion processing and regulation in early-onset depression. As part of her Master’s thesis, she is currently working at the Stanford Psychophysiology Laboratory under the supervision of Dr. David Preece and Prof. James Gross. Her work there centers on understanding mechanisms behind alexithymia, with a focus on its neural underpinnings and the role of experiential avoidance. Maxi is passionate about bridging clinical practice and research. In the long term, she hopes to contribute to more personalized and effective treatments by integrating physiological markers into psychological care.

Ivana Stiperski
Affiliate, Mechanical Engineering - Flow Physics and Computation
BioIvana is a professor of Atmospheric Turbulence at University of Innsbruck, Austria. She got her PhD from the University of Zagreb, Croatia. Her research focuses on the effects of terrain complexity on the atmospheric flows at different scales. On the turbulence scale she and her team work on formulating a generalized theory of surface-layer turbulence based on anisotropy through her ERC Consolidator Grant "Unicorn". This new framework allows the classic turbulence theories to be extended to conditions outside of their range of applicability. On the local and mesoscale she studies thermally driven flows (katabatic flows over glaciers and non-glaciarized environments), as well as dynamically driven flows (bora and foehn winds and gravity waves). Her main research tool are turbulence field observations collected over a wide range of very complex settings (e.g., mountains, glaciers, ice-cliffs, caves). She also participated and organized a number of field experiments (T-Rex, i-Box, SEECAP, HEFEX, HEFEX II, TEAMx). Her teaching includes introductory and advanced atmospheric sciences courses, especially boundary layer meteorology courses on Bachelor and Master level.
