Samuel Cohen 24

Visiting Fellow, Harvard GSAS & SEAS

Sam is interested in the overlap between Physics and the Life Sciences.   He is currently mid-PhD at the University of Cambridge, under the supervision of Professor Chris Dobson.  The group’s expertise and methodology spans chemistry, genetics, medicine, engineering and physics, with the overall aim being to develop quantitative approaches to defining normal and aberrant protein homeostasis. Sam is working towards a better understanding of Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s diseases and the prion disorders, including Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease. In particular, Sam has worked on developing a framework for identifying the molecular mechanisms that drive aberrant protein aggregation, which is a crucial process in the pathogenesis of these disorders. Sam will be working with Professor L. Mahadevan whose own work spans Applied Mathematics and the Life Sciences. Away from academia, Sam’s interest in climate change and energy policy led to his representing the UK as a Global Leader at the Institute of International Education in New York in 2008.

Mahiben Maruthappu 23

Special Student, Harvard GSAS

Having read Medical Sciences at Cambridge, Mahiben is now completing his medical degree at Oxford. His aim is to transform healthcare by blending academia, policy, clinical practice and technology. He is consequently embarking on the Special Student programme, which provides a unique degree of flexibility in which to pursue these different interests. Mahiben will be taking courses in public health, economics and entrepreneurship, while conducting data-driven research at Harvard's Medical and Business schools. He is a passionate innovator, launching several initiatives ranging from the UK Medical Students' Association (UKMSA) to organisations supporting the training of doctors in resource-limited countries.

Ed M, International Education Policy, Harvard School of Education

Junaid was the first student in the history of his school to study Mathematics at Oxford.   Now that he has completed his Doctorate, he wishes to enter the debate about mathematics education policy, seeing the crucial role maths has to play in scientific and technological innovation, economic development and as an absolute language for cross-cultural communication. Junaid has developed his own communication skills and sees this as a major need within his subject, as it seeks to protect its identity and preserve its role.   He has also worked extensively in educational access schemes and is keen to bring issues of equity and social justice to the forefront of the education policy discourse. He has recently developed an interest in marathon-running, competing in Paris this year.

M Arch, Harvard School of Design

Olayinka read Classics at Oxford and then worked as an investment analyst. She now wants to move from being an observer in her family’s building and construction firm to train as an architect, intending to find contemporary interpretations of African vernacular architecture and to reinterpret traditional styles and materials for a modern city, with particular reference to sustainability and with Lagos as her longer-term focus. She is looking forward to the opportunity this programme provides for students from non-architectural backgrounds.

Masters in Public Policy, Harvard Kennedy School

A linguist who has travelled widely, Patrick read European Social and Political Studies at UCL during which time he spent a year in Naples.   Moving to Damascus to improve his Arabic he has been working as a consultant in the resettlement unit of UNHCR for the past fifteen months, as well as a stint working as an Arabic-language media monitor for the FCO in Beirut.  His additional experience as a speech-writer within the EU gave Patrick an interest in emerging economic spheres and the ‘soft’ political influence of their trading relationships.   He welcomes the opportunity to bring his varied experiences to bear whilst the MPP enables him to face the challenges of contemporary international policymaking and hopes eventually to return to the EU as a policymaker in the Directorate of External Relations.

AM Regional Studies, E Asia, Harvard GSAS

Originally drawn to learning the Chinese language, Oliver now has a much broader interest in the history, culture and politics of the Chinese nation.  A research project on the effects of tourism in Yunnan province has left him keen to exploit the breadth of the Regional Studies East Asia course with its opportunity to pursue individual research alongside the perfecting of his language skills and knowledge of contemporary China.   Oliver also expects to cross-register with the Kennedy School and the Business School, being interested in the environmental issues arising from China’s economic growth. Outside of the classroom, he is a karate black belt and a journalist.





web-DanielSusskindDaniel Susskind 23

Special Student, Harvard GSAS

Daniel read Economics and Management at Oxford and has since worked as a policy adviser to the Prime Minister, first at the Strategy Unit and then in the No 10 Policy Unit.  At Harvard he intends to explore social and individual psychology, develop his understanding of philosophy and mathematics, and broaden his experience of both practical and theoretical policymaking. Daniel is an accomplished public-speaker, an enthusiastic sportsman - golf, rugby, running and snowboarding - and (was once) a semi-professional magician.

Samuel Cohen 24

哈佛大学GSAS和SEAS客座研究员

Sam对物理学和生命科学之间的重叠感兴趣。  他目前在剑桥大学攻读博士中期,师从Chris Dobson教授。 该小组的专业知识和方法跨越了化学、遗传学、医学、工程学和物理学,总体目标是开发定量的方法来定义正常和异常的蛋白质平衡状态。萨姆正致力于更好地了解阿尔茨海默氏症和帕金森氏症以及朊病毒疾病,包括克雅氏病。特别是,萨姆致力于开发一个框架,以确定驱动异常蛋白质聚集的分子机制,这是这些疾病发病机制的一个关键过程。萨姆将与L. Mahadevan教授一起工作,他自己的工作横跨应用数学和生命科学。在学术界之外,萨姆对气候变化和能源政策的兴趣使他在2008年代表英国参加了在纽约举行的国际教育学会的全球领袖会议。

马赫本-马鲁塔普 23

哈佛大学GSAS特别学生

Mahiben在剑桥大学学习医学,现在正在牛津大学完成他的医学学位。他的目标是通过融合学术界、政策、临床实践和技术来改变医疗保健。因此,他开始了特别学生计划,该计划提供了独特的灵活性,以追求这些不同的兴趣。马希文将学习公共卫生、经济学和企业家精神方面的课程,同时在哈佛大学医学院和商学院进行数据驱动的研究。他是一个充满激情的创新者,发起了多项倡议,从英国医学生协会(UKMSA)到支持资源有限国家医生培训的组织。

哈佛大学教育学院国际教育政策教育硕士

朱奈德是他学校历史上第一个在牛津大学学习数学的学生。  现在他已经完成了博士学位,他希望进入有关数学教育政策的辩论,看到数学在科技创新、经济发展中的关键作用,以及作为跨文化交流的一种绝对语言。朱奈德已经发展了自己的沟通技巧,并认为这是他的学科内的主要需求,因为它寻求保护其身份和维护其作用。  他还在教育普及计划方面进行了广泛的工作,并热衷于将公平和社会正义的问题带到教育政策讨论的前沿。他最近对马拉松赛事产生了兴趣,今年参加了巴黎的比赛。
