Madolyn Kelm
Ph.D. Student in Oceans, admitted Summer 2024
BioMadolyn Kelm is a Ph.D. student in Oceans at Stanford University, specializing in the biophysical interactions of kelp aquaculture in Southern California. Her research aims to optimize farming productivity through predictive modeling. Currently, she is working on validating the MacroAlgae Cultivation MODeling System (MACMODS) through the NSF Graduate Research Fellowship to advance sustainable kelp farming practices.
With a unique interdisciplinary background, Madolyn integrates biological and physical dynamics to drive focused coastal ocean research. Committed to addressing the impacts of climate change on coastal ecosystems, she aspires to become a professor and contribute to fostering diversity in STEM. -
Ari Y. Kelman
Jim Joseph Professor of Education and Jewish Studies and Associate Professor, by courtesy, of Religious Studies
Current Research and Scholarly InterestsProfessor Kelman's research focuses on the forms and practices of religious knowledge transmission. His work emerges at the intersection of sociocultural learning theory and scholarly/critical studies of religion, and his methods draw on the social sciences and history. Currently Professor Kelman is at work on a variety of projects ranging from a history of religious education in the post-war period to an inquiry about Google's implicit definitions of religion.

Mark Kemp
Senior Scientist, SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory
BioAfter joining SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory in 2008, Dr. Kemp was an engineer in the Power Conversion and Electrodynamics Departments. Recent activities have included serving as manager of the developmental engineering section, project manager of the SLAC P2 Marx, and technical lead on several pulsed power and RF source projects. He is presently a Senior Staff Scientist at SLAC and is PI on two DARPA funded projects in neutron source and VLF technologies. He is also the Project Manager for a DHS funded project for a high average power linac. He is PI on a DOE funded project for next-generation high efficiency RF sources. He has also served as co-instructor for several years at the US Particle Accelerator School. He has published more than 80 journal and conference papers and has 3 patents.
Dr. Kemp was the treasurer of the 2012 IEEE Power Modulator and High Voltage Conference (IPMHVC), Technical Co-Chair of the 2014 IPMHVC, and General Chair of the 2016 IPMHVC and he currently serves on the executive committee. He is a Senior Member of IEEE. -

Joan Kendig
Professor of Biology in the Department of Anesthesia, Emeritus
Current Research and Scholarly InterestsMy laboratory tries to find out how pharmacologic agents used in the practice of anesthesia (general anesthetic and analgesic agents) lead to therapeutically desireable endpoints including unconsciousness, immobility and absence of pain. The old idea that general anesthetics are uniformly non-specific "membrane stabilizers" is giving way to a new realization that these agents exert specific actions on particular ion channels and intracellular signalling systems.
