Ovijit Chaudhuri
Professor of Mechanical Engineering and, by courtesy, of Bioengineering
Current Research and Scholarly InterestsWe study the physics of cell migration, division, and morphogenesis in 3D, as well cell-matrix mechanotransduction, or the process by which cells sense and respond to mechanical properties of the extracellular matrices. For both these areas, we use engineered biomaterials for 3D culture as artificial extracellular matrices.

Enze Chen
Lecturer, Materials Science and Engineering
BioEnze (he/him, '18) is a Lecturer in Materials Science and Engineering (MSE) who teaches a variety of undergraduate MSE courses spanning structure, characterization, energy, computing, and communication. Midway through undergrad, he was introduced to the world of computational materials science and hasn't looked back, completing a PhD in MSE that applied computational tools to study planar defects and materials informatics education. Enze is excited to be back on The Farm and to help advance student success through instruction, advising, and research.

Helen L. Chen
Research Scientist, Mechanical Engineering - Design
BioHelen L. Chen is a research scientist in the Designing Education Lab in the Department of Mechanical Engineering at Stanford University. She holds an undergraduate degree in communication from UCLA and a PhD in communication with a minor in psychology from Stanford. Helen is a board member for the Association for Authentic, Experiential and Evidence-Based Learning (AAEEBL) and is a co-author of Documenting Learning with ePortfolios: A Guide for College Instructors and co-executive editor of the International Journal of ePortfolio. She works closely with the Association of American Colleges and Universities and consults with institutions on general education redesign, authentic assessment approaches, design thinking, and personal branding and ePortfolios. Helen's current research and scholarship focus on engineering and entrepreneurship education; the pedagogy of portfolios and reflective practice in higher education; and redesigning how learning is recorded and recognized in traditional transcripts and academic credentials.

Wah Chiu
Wallenberg-Bienenstock Professor and Professor of Bioengineering and, by courtesy, of Microbiology and Immunology
Current Research and Scholarly InterestsMy research includes methodology improvements in single particle cryo-EM for atomic resolution structure determination of molecules and molecular machines, as well as in cryo-ET of cells and organelles towards subnanometer resolutions. We collaborate with many researchers around the country and outside the USA on understanding biological processes such as protein folding, virus assembly and disassembly, pathogen-host interactions, signal transduction, and transport across cytosol and membranes.
