Christopher Gregg
Lecturer, Computer Science
BioChris Gregg received his Ph.D. in Computer Engineering from the University of Virginia in 2012, has a Master's of Education from Harvard University (2002), and a BS in Electrical Engineering from Johns Hopkins University (1994). Prior to becoming a lecturer at Stanford, Chris was a lecturer in the computer science department at Tufts University, and prior to that he taught high school physics in Massachusetts and California for seven years. Chris was on active duty in the Navy for seven years, and remains as a Commander in the Navy Reserves in the Information Warfare / Cryptology community.
Chris's research interests include computer architecture (specifically, general purpose computing on GPUs) and the pedagogy of computer science teaching and instruction. -
Sally Gressens
Assistant Dean, School of Engineering - Student Affairs
Current Role at StanfordAssistant Dean, Graduate Students
Stanford Engineering Office of Student Affairs
My focus: the 3500 graduate students and postdocs in Stanford's Engineering programs, and the policy and procedures that affect them. (A substantial component is financial policy and procedure.)
Secondary focus: the systems supporting their academic progress and financial support, including data & analysis.
In our School, graduate students and postdocs usually work directly with their department's Student Services Managers and staff, and with faculty advisors. The Dean's office does not play so visible or direct a role.
I am more than happy to talk with students, postdocs, and faculty. Most of my work, however, is "behind the scenes" with our departments and with my colleagues in the Schools and central offices (Financial Aid, VPGE, Office of Postdoctoral Affairs, etc). -
Pierre-Alexandre Gross
Postdoctoral Research Fellow, Mechanical Engineering
BioAfter a master degree in theoretical chemistry at the University of Strasbourg in France which emphasized on quantum chemistry and interfaces chemical processes, I did a Ph D in Materials sciences applied to clean and sustainable energy. I developed a TiO2 nanotubes based photoanode for hydrogen generation by photoelectrocatalytic water splitting. This work led to two publications and 4 conference presentations.
Then, I joined the microsystem team at Stanford University for a post-doc, were I currently work on the development of a micro gas sensor for pollutants and explosives detection. This last experience gives me the opportunity to explore micro-fabrication in cleanroom environment.
The combination of theoretical chemistry, material sciences and now microsystems and sensors, gives me a very broad knowledge in the field of physical chemistry. This trans-disciplinary background allows me to quickly understand given problems and propose innovative solutions.
Driven by curiosity, I’m looking to enlarge my knowledge in the fields of chemistry, physics and technology. -
Xun Gu
Assistant Professor of Mechanical Engineering and, by courtesy, of Materials Science and Engineering
BioThe Gu Group studies the mechanical behavior of nanomaterials. We work at the intersection of solid mechanics, materials science and nano-chemistry. We research the unique properties of nanoscale metals, ceramics and nano-architected composites in order to design strong, tough and lightweight structural materials, materials for extreme environments, and mechanically-actuated sensors. Our experimental tools include nanoindentation, electron microscopy, and colloidal synthesis.

Kazuma Gunning
Ph.D. Student in Aeronautics and Astronautics, admitted Autumn 2015
BioKaz Gunning is a Ph.D. candidate in the GPS Research Laboratory working under the guidance of Professor Per Enge and Dr. Todd Walter in the Department of Aeronautics and Astronautics at Stanford University. Prior to joining the lab in fall 2015 as a Ph.D. candidate, Kaz worked for Booz Allen Hamilton on the GPS Systems Engineering and Integration group doing Modeling and Simulation of the next generation GPS Control Segment and software-defined receiver work looking at the GPS III waveform. He also has a B.S. and an M.S. from Stanford University in Aeronautics and Astronautics.
