Leticia Britos Cavagnaro
Adjunct Professor, d.school
Current Research and Scholarly InterestsI lead the development of AI-native learning tools at the Stanford d.school. My work builds frameworks for how human agency can scale with AI. Current tools include Riff (an AI-powered reflection assistant used by educators globally, with 50,000+ reflections), Mystery Machine (an AI scenario platform for adaptive learning, launched at SXSW 2025), and Aftercast (an AI tool for ethical exploration of projects). Author, Experiments in Reflection (Ten Speed Press, 2023).

Mark Brongersma
Director, Geballe Laboratory for Advanced Materials (GLAM), Stephen Harris Professor, Professor of Materials Science and Engineering and, by courtesy, of Applied Physics
BioMark Brongersma is a Professor in the Department of Materials Science and Engineering at Stanford University. He received his PhD in Materials Science from the FOM Institute in Amsterdam, The Netherlands, in 1998. From 1998-2001 he was a postdoctoral research fellow at the California Institute of Technology. During this time, he coined the term “Plasmonics” for a new device technology that exploits the unique optical properties of nanoscale metallic structures to route and manipulate light at the nanoscale. His current research is directed towards the development and physical analysis of nanostructured materials that find application in nanoscale electronic and photonic devices. Brongersma received a National Science Foundation Career Award, the Walter J. Gores Award for Excellence in Teaching, the International Raymond and Beverly Sackler Prize in the Physical Sciences (Physics) for his work on plasmonics, and is a Fellow of the Optical Society of America, the SPIE, and the American Physical Society.

Vivek P. Buch, MD
Assistant Professor of Neurosurgery and, by courtesy, of Bioengineering
BioDr. Buch is a board certified neurosurgeon with fellowship training in pediatric and adult epilepsy, functional, and minimally invasive neurosurgery. He is an Assistant Professor of Neurosurgery and Bioengineering, and the Christina and Hamid Moghadam Endowed Faculty Scholar at Stanford University.
Dr. Buch focuses his expertise on the open and minimally invasive treatment of epilepsy, low grade brain tumors, movement and neuropsychiatric disorders, facial and body pain syndromes, and other complex neurological conditions. He uses advanced and innovative techniques to treat both pediatric and adult patients. For each patient, he develops a personalized care plan that is designed to be both comprehensive and compassionate.
Dr. Buch has conducted extensive research. His academic career goal is to develop restorative bioengineering approaches for complex neurocognitive, neurodevelopmental, and neuropsychiatric disorders. He is creating network-neuroprosthetics and precision molecular therapies to restore abnormal brain circuit function in these vulnerable patient populations. He is further pioneering novel intraoperative technologies including personalized network-based targeting, holographic mixed reality, and artificial intelligence platforms for minimally invasive cranial surgery. He has presented this work at numerous professional conferences at the national and international level.
He has co-authored articles on his research discoveries in Science, Nature, Nature Medicine, Nature Neuroscience, Nature Communications, Neuron, Brain, Annals of Surgery, New England Journal of Medicine, ACS Nano, and many other journals. Articles focus on developing novel network control theory applications to human brain functions and new techniques and technologies to enhance neurosurgical effectiveness and patient outcomes.
He is the AI/Data Science Section Editor for NEUROSURGERY, and a guest editor for Surgical Innovation and Brain Sciences. He also has co-authored chapters in the books Neurosurgical Atlas, Operative Techniques in Epilepsy Surgery, Deep Brain Stimulation, and The Encyclopedia of Medical Robotics.
For his clinical, research, and academic achievements. Dr. Buch has earned many honors. He has won awards from the American Association of Neurological Surgeons, American Roentgen Ray Society, Congress of Neurological Surgeons, and National Institutes of Health, including twice earning the honor of national Young Neurosurgeon award from the Congress of Neurological Surgeons in his first 5 years of practice.
Dr. Buch is a national leader in epilepsy surgery, functional neurosurgery, and surgical AI. He is a member of the Wu Tsai Neuroscience Institute, Human Performance Alliance, Stanford BioX, and Human Centered AI Institute. He is also a member of the American Association of Neurological Surgeons, Congress of Neurological Surgeons, World Society for Stereotactic and Functional Neurosurgery, American Association of Stereotactic and Functional Neurosurgery, American Epeilepsy Soeciety, and Alpha Omega Alpha Medical Honor Society.
He has designed and holds patents on artificial intelligence systems for surgical guidance, neural control signals for closed-loop stimulation therapy, novel arrays for bioelectrical sensing and stimulation, and surgical devices including percutaneous anchoring mechanisms and digital neurological assessment tools.
