Tianyang Chen
Postdoctoral Scholar, Chemical Engineering
BioBorn in southeastern China, I went to Beijing for undergraduate education after spending 18 years in Zhejiang province. At Peking university, I conducted research in the field of organometallic chemistry in Prof. Zhenfeng Xi's lab in College of Chemistry and Molecular Engineering (CCME). Hoping to achieve more in chemical research, I went abroad to the east coast of the US and became a graduate student in Chemistry Department of MIT, under the supervision of Prof. Mircea Dincᾰ. My research interests during graduate school span from electrically conductive metal-organic frameworks and porous organic polymers to electrochemcial energy storage using organic or organic/inorganic hybrid materials. After 6 years at MIT, I traveled accross the country (by driving) to the west coast and am currently a postdoctoral scholar in Prof. Zhenan Bao's lab, working on developing polymeric materials for electrochemical interphase in batteries.

Róbert Csordás
Postdoctoral Scholar, Computer Science
BioI am a postdoctoral researcher in the Stanford NLP Group, supervised by Prof. Christopher Manning and Prof. Christopher Potts. Previously, I did my PhD in IDSIA, supervised by Prof. Jürgen Schmidhuber. I work on systematic generalization, mainly in the context of algorithmic reasoning. This drives my research interest in network architectures (Transformers, DNC, graph networks) with inductive biases like information routing (attention, memory) and learning modular structures. My goal is to create a system that can learn generally applicable rules instead of pure pattern matching but with minimal hardcoded structure. I consider the lack of systematic generation to be the main obstacle to a more generally applicable artificial intelligence.

Yiwen Dong
Postdoctoral Scholar, Computer Science
BioYiwen Dong is a postdoc fellow at the Stanford Institute of Human-Centered Artificial Intelligence (HAI). Her research interest is human behavior characterization and health monitoring through their interactions with the physical environment. Her current work focuses on human and animal health monitoring through gait-induced floor vibrations.
While buildings are traditionally considered as passive and indifferent, her works allow the buildings to be both self-aware and user-aware. Yiwen developed systems that utilize ambient structural vibrations to infer human behaviors and health status, which enables many smart building applications such as in-home patient monitoring and elder care, intruder prevention and occupant management, animal health monitoring, and welfare. She strives for the next-generation intelligent infrastructures by exploring the potential of structural monitoring for human-centered purposes.
Yiwen has an interdisciplinary background in civil engineering, electrical engineering, and AI. Yiwen received her Master’s degree in Structural Engineering at Stanford University and her Bachelor’s degree in civil engineering at Nanyang Technological University. She won various awards (Best Paper Award, runner-ups in competitions) in ubiquitous computing and cyber-physical system conferences. She is passionate about combining the physical knowledge from the living environments, sensing approaches from cyber-physical systems, and data-driven models from machine learning to infer people’s behavior patterns and health status. -
Vijay Prakash Dwivedi
Postdoctoral Scholar, Computer Science
BioVijay Prakash Dwivedi is a Postdoctoral Scholar in Computer Science working on graph representation learning. He holds a PhD from Nanyang Technological University (NTU), Singapore. His work has made contributions to advancing benchmarks for Graph Neural Networks (GNNs), graph positional and structural encodings, and Graph Transformers as universal deep neural networks for graph-based learning. He has also contributed to the integration of parametric knowledge in large language models (LLMs) for diverse applications, particularly in healthcare. Several of the methods he developed during his PhD are now widely adopted in state-of-the-art Graph Transformers and other leading graph learning models. For his research, he received one of the Outstanding PhD Thesis Awards from the NTU College of Computing and Data Science. Vijay has over 7 years experience in both academia and industry with institutions including NTU, Snap Inc., Sony, and ASUS.

Duncan Eddy
Postdoctoral Scholar, Aeronautics and Astronautics
BioDuncan Eddy is a research fellow in the Stanford University Department of Aeronautics and Astronautics. He completed his PhD in Aerospace Engineering from Stanford, funded by the National Defense Science and Engineering Graduate Fellowship. His current research is focused on decision-making in safety-critical, climate, and space systems, where operational decisions must be made quickly and correctly in complex environments while still being explainable and understandable by human stakeholders.
He is currently the Executive Director of the Stanford Center for AI Safety, and a post-doctoral researcher with appointments in Mineral-X and the Stanford Intelligent Systems Laboratory (SISL).
Prior to this, He started and led the Spacecraft Operations Group at Capella Space, the first US Commercial Synthetic Aperture Radar Earth Imaging constellation. There he developed the first fully-automated mission operations system, realizing lights-out tasking-to-delivery of radar satellite data for a commercial constellation. He subsequently started and led the Constellation Operations and Space Safety Groups at Project Kuiper. Most recently, he was a Principal Applied Scientist at Amazon Web Services, where he worked on building software services for large-scale distributed edge compute applications. -
Francis Engelmann
Postdoctoral Scholar, Computer Science
BioFrancis Engelmann is a PostDoc at Stanford university with Prof. Leonidas Guibas and Prof. Jeannette Bogh. Before that, he was a postdoctoral researcher at ETH Zurich collaborating with Prof. Marc Pollefeys and a visiting researcher at Google Zurich working with Federico Tombari. His current research focuses on computer vision and deep learning, particularly in the realm of 3D scene understanding. Prior to joining ETH Zurich, he obtained his Ph.D. from RWTH Aachen University under the guidance of Prof. Bastian Leibe, and interned at Google X in Munich, Google Research in Zurich, and Apple in California. Francis is a Fellow of the ETH AI Center, a member of the ELLIS Society, and a recipient of ETHZ Career Seed Award and SNSF Postdoc.Mobility fellowship.
