Charles Roques-Carmes
Postdoctoral Scholar, Electrical Engineering
BioCharles Roques-Carmes is a Science Fellow at Stanford and an incoming Assistant Professor at the Institute of Science and Technology Austria (ISTA). His lab studies and engineers subwavelength light–matter interactions to unlock quantum technologies, advanced microscopes, and next-generation communications and computing platforms—combining rigorous theory with ultrafast electron microscopy, X-ray imaging, and quantum sensing to turn insights into devices. Before joining ISTA, Charles was a Stanford Science Fellow at Stanford University and a Visiting Scientist at MIT, where he earned his PhD in Electrical Engineering and Computer Science in 2022. Charles has delivered 40+ invited talks at major venues including APS, CLEO, and SPIE.
In 2025, he received the inaugural Photonics Innovation Award in honor of Federico Capasso for pioneering achievements that broaden photonics’ frontiers and connect fundamentals to real-world impact; Charles is widely regarded as one of the founders of the emerging field of nanophotonic scintillation. His honors include numerous distinctions such as Forbes 30 Under 30 (Science, 2023), the Stanford Science Fellowship, the MathWorks Engineering Fellowship, the Robert B. Guenassia Award, and a Carnot Foundation Fellowship. He holds M.S. degrees from MIT (2018) and École Polytechnique (2016), and a B.S. from École Polytechnique (2015). -
Lorenzo Rosa
Affiliate, Program-Cargnello, M.
BioDr. Lorenzo Rosa is a Principal Investigator at the Carnegie Institution for Science and an Assistant Professor (by courtesy) at Stanford University. He is an environmental engineer whose research focuses on the resilience and sustainability of water, energy, and food systems under climate change and resource constraints.
His work combines systems modeling, hydrological simulation, techno-economic analysis, life-cycle assessment, optimization, and geospatial data science to evaluate emerging technologies and identify pathways toward sustainable development. His research spans water scarcity, climate-resilient agriculture, low-carbon fertilizers and fuels, and the environmental and economic feasibility of emerging climate solutions.
Dr. Rosa earned his PhD from the University of California, Berkeley, and completed postdoctoral training at ETH Zurich. He collaborates with academic, industry, and policy partners to translate scientific discoveries into actionable solutions. He also serves as an advisor to Ammobia, a climate technology company developing green ammonia production systems to support industrial decarbonization.
His contributions have been recognized through the American Geophysical Union Science for Solutions Award, the Leonardo Award in Engineering, Forbes 30 Under 30, and designation as a Clarivate Highly Cited Researcher.

Luca Rosalia
Postdoctoral Scholar, Bioengineering
BioLuca Rosalia received his bachelor’s and master’s degrees in Biomedical Engineering from the University of Glasgow (UK). During his studies, he visited the National University of Singapore and the University of Cambridge, where he gained his first exposure to the fields of soft robotics and tissue biomechanics. He pursued doctoral studies in the Health Sciences and Technology (HST) Ph.D. program of Harvard University and Massachusetts Institute of Technology in the lab of Ellen Roche and he's currently at Stanford University as a Postdoctoral Scholar in Bioengineering in the Skylar-Scott lab.
His doctoral work primarily focused on high-fidelity and patient-specific soft robotic preclinical models of valvular heart disease, congenital defects, and heart failure with preserved ejection fraction. Luca leveraged these platforms for the testing and development of medical devices through several partnerships with industry. During his studies, he also worked as an R&D engineer in the Structural Heart division of Abbott Laboratories on the development of transcatheter aortic valve replacements (TAVR). He also gained clinical experience at the Veterans Affairs Medical Center in Boston and at Boston Children's Hospital. In the Skylar-Scott lab, Luca will be working on whole-heart bioprinting.
