Nicholas Haber - Assistant Professor of Education
Bio-X Affiliated Faculty
Stanford Profile
Dr. Haber's Group Webpage
Dr. Haber's School of Education Homepage
Dr. Nicholas Haber uses AI models of of exploratory and social learning in order to better understand early human learning and development, and conversely, he uses our understanding of early human learning to make robust AI models that learn in exploratory and social ways. Based on this, Dr. Haber develops AI-powered learning tools for children, geared in particular towards the education of those with developmental issues such as the Autism Spectrum Disorder and Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder, in the mold of his work on the Autism Glass Project.

Grant Rotskoff - Assistant Professor of Chemistry
Bio-X Affiliated Faculty
Stanford Profile
Dr. Rotskoff's Lab Homepage
Dr. Grant Rotskoff's research focuses on theoretical and computational approaches to "mesoscale" biophysics. Many of the cellular phenomena that we consider the hallmarks of living systems occur at the scale of hundreds or thousands of proteins. Processes like the self-assembly of organelle-sized structures, the dynamics of cell division, and the transduction of signals from the environment to the machinery of the cell are not macroscopic phenomena—they are the result of a fluctuating, nonequilibrium dynamics.
