Lauren Simitz
Ph.D. Student in Aeronautics and Astronautics, admitted Autumn 2021
BioHi there! I'm an aerospace engineer, chemist, and geoscientist striving to both protect our world and advance technologies to explore new ones. Sustainability, teaching, and DEI are just as strong of passions, in and outside of the aerospace sector.
My work in industry (Chevron, SpaceX, Benchmark, Boeing) and academia catalyzed my interest in advancing sustainable, safe propulsion and energy systems. As a Stanford PhD candidate in the Hypersonics, Propulsion, and Energy Laboratory (HyPEL) working under Professor Ronald Hanson, I employ fluid mechanics, heat transfer, and chemical kinetics to experimentally probe combustion behavior. -
Karan P. Singh
Ph.D. Student in Electrical Engineering, admitted Autumn 2023
Masters Student in Electrical Engineering, admitted Spring 2025BioI am a third-year electrical engineering PhD student and NSF Graduate Research Fellow in the Stanford Translational AI Lab (STAI), advised by Dr. Ehsan Adeli. I am broadly interested in applied ML, and am currently working on foundation models for functional MRI to better understanding aging and brain network interactions.
Previously, I was a post-baccalaureate researcher here at Stanford, where I applied machine learning to transcranial ultrasound neuromodulation, a non-invasive therapeutic modality with the potential to cure neurological diseases such as epilepsy, Alzheimer's, and even addiction. My primary focus during this time was using ML to improve therapy planning accuracy and efficiency. You can view more of my research on my website!
Outside of research, I enjoy playing the piano, badminton, calisthenics, and cooking! I am also a founder and president of the Stanford Piano Society.
