Carsten Prasse
Visiting Associate Professor, Civil and Environmental Engineering
BioMy research is focusing on the occurrence and fate of anthropogenic organic contaminants in the environment and the assessment of their environmental and human impacts. My research group is using analytical tools such as high-resolution mass spectrometry to identify previously unknown organic contaminants in different environmental matrices (drinking water, wastewater, river water, biosolids, soils, vegetables) and biospecimen (human blood and hurine). We are also developing new tools that can help prioritizing chemicals of highest concern in complex environmental mixtures.

Friedrich Prinz
Leonardo Professor, Professor of Mechanical Engineering, of Materials Science and Engineering and Senior Fellow at the Precourt Institute for Energy
BioFritz Prinz is the Leonardo Professor in the School of Engineering at Stanford University, Professor of Materials Science and Engineering, Professor of Mechanical Engineering, and Senior Fellow at the Precourt Institute for Energy. He also serves as the Director of the Nanoscale Prototyping Laboratory and Faculty Co-director of the NPL-Affiliate Program. A solid-state physicist by training, Prinz leads a group of doctoral students, postdoctoral scholars, and visiting scholars who are addressing fundamental issues on energy conversion and storage at the nanoscale. In his Laboratory, a wide range of nano-fabrication technologies are employed to build prototype fuel cells and capacitors with induced topological electronic states. We are testing these concepts and novel material structures through atomic layer deposition, scanning tunneling microscopy, impedance spectroscopy and other technologies. In addition, the Prinz group group uses atomic scale modeling to gain insights into the nature of charge separation and recombination processes. Before coming to Stanford in 1994, he was on the faculty at Carnegie Mellon University. Prinz earned a PhD in Physics at the University of Vienna.

Professor of Anesthesiology, Perioperative and Pain Medicine (Department Research) and, by courtesy, of Bioengineering
BioMy research integrates neuroimaging, biomedical signal processing, and the systems neuroscience of general anesthesia and sedation.
We are a neuroengineering lab focused on brain dynamics, brain health, and the neural mechanisms of anesthesia. Our research aims to understand the brain dynamics of aging, Alzheimer’s disease, child development, sleep, anesthesia, and consciousness. We use this knowledge to develop novel technologies for brain monitoring and physiological control. We also teach anesthesiologists how to use EEG to provide personalized anesthesia care.
