Stanford Affiliates
A network of Stanford faculty, staff, and labs dedicated to putting social science to work for society
Members of the Stanford Impact Labs Affiliate Network (listed below according to impact area) share a common dedication to the importance of tackling tough social problems using science to inform both policy and practice.
Some, though not all, members have completed SIL fellowship programs or received SIL funding. All members are part of the broader Stanford University community and committed to the power of solutions-focused research to fuel real-world impact (e.g. new policies, programs, practices, or products) beyond the production of knowledge alone.
