Richard Frock
Assistant Professor of Radiation Oncology (Radiation and Cancer Biology)
On Partial Leave from 04/01/2026 To 12/10/2026Current Research and Scholarly InterestsWe are a functional genomics laboratory interested in elucidating mechanisms of DNA repair pathway choice and genome instability. We use genome-wide repair fate maps of targeted DNA double strand breaks (DSBs) to develop pathway-specific models and combinatorial therapies. Our expertise overlaps many different fields including: genome editing, ionizing radiation, cancer therapeutics, V(D)J and IgH class switch recombination, repair during transcription and replication, and meiosis.

Alan R. Fry
Senior Scientist, SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory
BioAlan Fry is the Director of the Matter in Extreme Conditions Petawatt Upgrade (MEC-U), a major new FES facility at SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory that brings the most powerful optical lasers together with the Linac Coherent Light Source (LCLS) X-ray laser to enable transformational research in high-energy density plasma science. Earlier at SLAC he was the Division Director for Laser Science and Technology at LCLS, where he led the development of ultrafast optical laser systems for the LCLS user program and accelerator facility operations. Before joining SLAC, Alan worked in private industry leading the development of ultrafast lasers for scientific research.

Judith Frydman
Donald Kennedy Chair in the School of Humanities and Sciences and Professor of Genetics
Current Research and Scholarly InterestsThe long term goal of our research is to understand how proteins fold in living cells. My lab uses a multidisciplinary approach to address fundamental questions about molecular chaperones, protein folding and degradation. In addition to basic mechanistic principles, we aim to define how impairment of cellular folding and quality control are linked to disease, including cancer and neurodegenerative diseases and examine whether reengineering chaperone networks can provide therapeutic strategies.

Takako Fujioka
Associate Professor of Music
BioResearch topics include neural oscillations for auditory perception, auditory-motor coupling, brain plasticity in development and aging, and recovery from stroke with music-supported therapy.
Her post-doctoral and research-associate work at Rotman Research Institute in Toronto was supported by awards from the Canadian Institutes of Health Research. Her research continues to explore the biological nature of human musical ability by examining brain activities with non-invasive human neurophysiological measures such as magnetoencephalography (MEG) and electroencephalography (EEG). -
