Graduate Student in Biochemistry & Molecular Biophysics
Manuel Razo Mejia
Caltech graduate student Manuel Razo Mejia wants to predict how evolution occurs in organisms ranging from microbes to humans. Until recently, evolution has been considered a random process, but Razo Mejia believes we might detect certain patterns by applying the principles of physics and mathematics.

Linda Hsieh-Wilson
Caltech surprised chemist and neurobiologist Linda Hsieh-Wilson when she arrived as a new professor in 2000. The unusually interactive campus felt like a community, even a family.

Harold Brown Professor of Physics, Emeritus; Director, Spitzer Science Center
Tom Soifer
After nearly five decades at Caltech, Tom Soifer is still smiling. The former Kent and Joyce Kresa Leadership Chair of the division of Physics, Mathematics and Astronomy continues to advance our understanding of the universe by hunting for dust-obscured galaxies—DOGs—where others can’t see.

Yeorgia Kafkoulis
Even our most reliable ideas about how the universe works break down in certain domains. They can’t account for the weirdness of quantum mechanics or the recursive chaos of fractals. Hungry for answers, many researchers—including one Caltech undergraduate and her faculty mentor—aim to come up with a better explanation.
