Jesse DeRose
Masters Student in Management Science and Engineering, admitted Autumn 2024
Hourly Student Employee- Practitioner Course Program, Ethics In SocietyBioHow can work balance profit and social impact? What if employees were intrinsically motivated to show up every day?
I help leaders answer these questions because we all deserve purposeful work. Whether that’s cultivating emotional intelligence, fostering psychological safety, or removing process friction, healthy work is proven to increase productivity, creativity, and decision-making.
Combining industry research with a decade of experience building digital transformation programs, I help my clients build human-centered solutions that align their people, processes, and technology to make data-driven business decisions. -
Gauri Desai
Postdoctoral Scholar, Bioengineering
BioDr. Gauri Desai is a Postdoctoral Research Associate with the Female Athlete Science and Translational Research Program (FASTR). She is a biomechanist, with a research focus on female-specific biomechanical risk factors for sport-related injuries. She integrates biomechanics principles with physiology to provide an all-round perspective on improving performance and mitigating injury risk in female athletes. Dr. Desai's research complements human subject experiments with insights from computer modeling and simulation, to answer research questions that are challenging to address via human subject research studies alone. Beyond research, she is an active contributor to the sports science community through mentorship and advocacy for women in sport.

Joseph M. DeSimone
Sanjiv Sam Gambhir Professor of Translational Medicine, Professor of Chemical Engineering and, by courtesy, of Chemistry, of Materials Science and Engineering, and of Operations, Information and Technology at the Graduate School of Business
BioJoseph M. DeSimone is the Sanjiv Sam Gambhir Professor of Translational Medicine and Chemical Engineering at Stanford University. He holds appointments in the Departments of Radiology and Chemical Engineering with courtesy appointments in the Department of Chemistry and in Stanford’s Graduate School of Business.
The DeSimone laboratory's research efforts are focused on developing innovative, interdisciplinary solutions to complex problems centered around advanced polymer 3D fabrication methods. In Chemical Engineering and Materials Science, the lab is pursuing new capabilities in digital 3D printing, as well as the synthesis of new polymers for use in advanced additive technologies. In Translational Medicine, research is focused on exploiting 3D digital fabrication tools to engineer new vaccine platforms, enhanced drug delivery approaches, and improved medical devices for numerous conditions, with a current major focus in pediatrics. Complementing these research areas, the DeSimone group has a third focus in Entrepreneurship, Digital Transformation, and Manufacturing.
Before joining Stanford in 2020, DeSimone was a professor of chemistry at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill and of chemical engineering at North Carolina State University. He is also Co-founder, Board Chair, and former CEO (2014 - 2019) of the additive manufacturing company, Carbon. DeSimone is responsible for numerous breakthroughs in his career in areas including green chemistry, medical devices, nanomedicine, and 3D printing. He has published over 350 scientific articles and is a named inventor on over 200 issued patents. Additionally, he has mentored 80 students through Ph.D. completion in his career, half of whom are women and members of underrepresented groups in STEM.
In 2016 DeSimone was recognized by President Barack Obama with the National Medal of Technology and Innovation, the highest U.S. honor for achievement and leadership in advancing technological progress. He has received numerous other major awards in his career, including the U.S. Presidential Green Chemistry Challenge Award (1997); the American Chemical Society Award for Creative Invention (2005); the Lemelson-MIT Prize (2008); the NIH Director’s Pioneer Award (2009); the AAAS Mentor Award (2010); the Heinz Award for Technology, the Economy and Employment (2017); the Wilhelm Exner Medal (2019); the EY Entrepreneur of the Year Award (2019 U.S. Overall National Winner); and the Harvey Prize in Science and Technology (2020). He is one of only 25 individuals elected to all three branches of the U.S. National Academies (Sciences, Medicine, Engineering). DeSimone received his B.S. in Chemistry in 1986 from Ursinus College and his Ph.D. in Chemistry in 1990 from Virginia Tech.
