Owen Anderson
Ph.D. Student in Bioengineering, admitted Summer 2026
BioOwen Anderson is a first-year PhD student in Bioengineering at Stanford University. He earned his B.S. in Neuroscience from Case Western Reserve University, with minors in Computer Science and Mathematics. Prior to Stanford, he spent two years in the Baker and Machado labs at the Cleveland Clinic, contributing to preclinical and early-phase clinical studies of cerebellar deep brain stimulation for movement disorders and post-stroke motor recovery. At Case Western, he founded and led the Neurotechnology Club, directing an engineering team that prototyped an EEG-driven prosthetic hand using brain-computer interface methods and real-time neural signal processing. He also serves as Associate Director of the nonprofit Eleos, where he leads the AI in Medicine initiative — a curated database of AI–medicine literature designed to help clinicians and engineers integrate AI into neuromodulation and neurotechnology workflows. His research interests center on novel neural interfaces for high-spatiotemporal-resolution recording and stimulation, toward translational brain-machine systems and neuromodulatory therapies.

Bella Archibald
Ph.D. Student in Bioengineering, admitted Autumn 2021
BioBella works in Professor Jennifer Brophy’s lab, and her research focuses on developing new tools to precisely engineer plants and plant root development. She hopes to create plants that are more drought tolerant and climate resilient, as well as plants with optimized root structures for enhanced bioremediation and resource recovery.
Outside of the lab, Bella loves skiing, hiking, and dancing, and her favorite flower is the Arrowleaf Balsamroot. -

Madison George
Ph.D. Student in Bioengineering, admitted Autumn 2023
Current Research and Scholarly InterestsExertional compartment syndrome (ECS) is a painful condition characterized by abnormally high muscle compartment pressures induced by exercise. The diagnostic procedure for ECS requires the insertion of a needle into the muscle to directly quantify pressure, which is a barrier to both patients and clinicians. We will develop and evaluate new MRI technologies to (1) increase understanding of the pathophysiology of this condition and (2) Improve clinical diagnosis of ECS.

Karolina Hasiec
Masters Student in Bioengineering, admitted Autumn 2025
BioKarolina’s research at King’s College London focused on neuroimaging and on how analytical methods can be tailored to the unique characteristics of different imaging tools. At Stanford, she is supporting research that investigates whether myelin plasticity can serve as a tractable therapeutic target to slow the progression of SYNGAP1-related intellectual disability - a rare neurodevelopmental disorder characterized by severe, intractable epilepsy, significant cognitive impairment, and recognized as one of the leading genetic causes of autism. Through this work, she contributes to advancing understanding of how maladaptive myelination may underlie disease progression and to exploring new strategies for therapeutic intervention.
