Renesmee Kuo
Ph.D. Student in Electrical Engineering, admitted Autumn 2022
BioRenesmee Kuo is an Electrical Engineering PhD candidate at Stanford University supported by NSF GRFP and Stanford Lieberman fellowship. Her research interests lie at the intersection of engineering and medicine. She focuses on validation of preclinical PET imaging tracers and their translation into the clinic for applications in neuroinflammatory diseases (e.g., MS, AD) and cancer (e.g., brain metastasis) in Prof. Michelle James' lab. She graduated from UC Berkeley with a BS in Bioengineering. At Berkeley, she worked in Prof. Steve Conolly's lab on Magnetic Particle Imaging (MPI), focusing on tracking CAR-T cells in immunotherapy using high-resolution MPI tracers. She also explored commercially-available high-resolution MPI tracers for early diagnosis of pulmonary embolisms and cardiovascular disease in preclinical settings.

Phillip Kyriakakis
Sr Res Scientist-Basic Life
BioPhillip Kyriakakis, Ph.D. is a Senior Research Scientist in the Bioengineering Department at Stanford University in the Wu Tsai Institute for Neuroscience. Dr. Kyriakakis did his undergraduate work in Biochemistry at UMass Boston, where he also worked in Dr. Alexey Veraksa's developmental biology lab and started to develop PhyB optogenetics in animal cells (2008). Dr. Kyriakakis continued his education at UC San Diego in the Division of Biological Sciences. There, he studied cellular programming and metabolism to obtain his degree with a specialization in Multiscale Biology. Dr. Kyriakakis did his postdoctoral work in the Bioengineering Department at UC San Diego with Todd Coleman, continuing the development of optogenetic tools and related technologies. In 2021 Dr. Kyriakakis moved to his Senior Research Scientist role at Stanford University in the Bioengineering Department at the Wu Tsai Institute for Neurosciences.
