Alex Woloch
Richard W. Lyman Professor of the Humanities and Professor, by courtesy, of Comparative Literature
BioAlex Woloch received his B.A. and PhD in Comparative Literature. He teaches and writes about literary criticism, narrative theory, the history of the novel, and nineteenth- and twentieth-century literature. He is the author of The One vs. The Many: Minor Characters and the Space of the Protagonist in the Novel (Princeton UP, 2003), which attempts to reestablish the centrality of characterization — the fictional representation of human beings — within narrative poetics. He is also the author of Or Orwell: Writing and Democratic Socialism (Harvard UP, 2016), which takes up the literature-and-politics question through a close reading of George Orwell’s generically experimental non-fiction prose. A new book in progress, provisionally entitled Partial Representation, will consider the complicated relationship between realism and form in a variety of media, genres and texts. This book will focus on the paradoxical ways in which form is at once necessary, and inimical, to representation. Woloch is also the co-editor, with Peter Brooks of Whose Freud?: The Place of Psychoanalysis in Contemporary Culture (Yale UP, 2000).

Christopher Wolters
Affiliate, Program-Mitra, S.
BioChristopher Wolters is an M.Sc. candidate in Electrical and Computer Engineering at the Technical University of Munich (TUM). His research focuses on artificial intelligence, bio-inspired computing, and hardware-software co-design. He is currently a Visiting Student Researcher at Stanford University, where he works on AI computing architectures under the supervision of Prof. Subhasish Mitra and Prof. Ulf Schlichtmann.
Christopher has conducted research at the University of Tokyo on compute-in-memory architectures and at Duke University on neuromorphic hardware, and he completed academic training at ETH Zurich in Electrical and Computer Engineering. His accolades include the Max Weber Program scholarship by the German state, the Best Poster Award at MWSCAS 2023, and the NSF-CISE MWSCAS Student Award. -
Albert J. Wong, M.D.
Professor of Neurosurgery
Current Research and Scholarly InterestsOur goal is to define targets for cancer therapeutics by identifying alterations in signal transduction proteins. We first identified a naturally occurring mutant EGF receptor (EGFRvIII) and then delineated its unique signal transduction pathway. This work led to the identification of Gab1 followed by the discovery that JNK is constitutively active in tumors. We intiated using altered proteins as the target for vaccination, where an EGFRvIII based vaccine appears to be highly effective.

Ansel Austin Wong
Undergraduate, Vice Provost for Undergraduate Education
BioI am an undergraduate student seeking to pursue a bioengineering major on a pre-med track (with an end goal of becoming a physiatrist). I have participated in independent research in polyphenols and their importance in regulating UV damage. My other interests include nanotechnology, AI-biology compatibility, and prosthetics, though I would love the experience to delve into any field. I also have clinical experience as a hospital volunteer and community health organizer. In my free time, I love playing the piano and writing music.
