Jeffrey R. Koseff
William Alden Campbell and Martha Campbell Professor in the School of Engineering, Professor of Oceans and Senior Fellow at the Woods Institute for the Environment
BioJeff Koseff, founding co-director of the Stanford Woods Institute for the Environment, is an expert in the interdisciplinary domain of environmental fluid mechanics. His research falls in the interdisciplinary domain of environmental fluid mechanics and focuses on the interaction between physical and biological systems in natural aquatic environments. Current research activities are in the general area of environmental fluid mechanics and focus on: turbulence and internal wave dynamics in stratified flows, coral reef and sea-grass hydrodynamics, the role of natural systems in coastal protection, and flow through terrestrial and marine canopies. Most recently he has begun to focus on the interaction between gravity currents and breaking internal waves in the near-coastal environment, and the transport of marine microplastics. Koseff was formerly the Chair of Civil and Environmental Engineering, and the Senior Associate Dean of Engineering at Stanford, and has served on the Board of Governors of The Israel Institute of Technology, and has been a member of the Visiting Committees of the Civil and Environmental Engineering department at Carnegie-Mellon University, The Iowa Institute of Hydraulic Research, and Cornell University. He has also been a member of review committees for the College of Engineering at the University of Michigan, The WHOI-MIT Joint Program, and the University of Minnesota Institute on the Environment. He is a former member of the Independent Science Board of the Bay/Delta Authority. He was elected a Fellow of the American Physical Society in 2015, and received the Richard Lyman Award from Stanford University in the same year. In 2020 he was elected as a Fellow of the California Academy of Sciences. Koseff also served as the Faculty Athletics Representative to the Pac-12 and NCAA for Stanford until July 2024.

Ava Kouhana
Masters Student in Computational and Mathematical Engineering, admitted Autumn 2024
BioHi ! I am an ICME master's degree student at Stanford University. Prior to Stanford, I dedicated six months conducting research at Harvard under the supervision of Dr. Mengyu Wang, focusing primarily on Computer Vision tasks like Image Segmentation and Vision-Language Models. Before joining ICME , I have had the opportunity to work for six months supervised by Stanford Professor Craig Levin, researching the application of Diffusion Models for image super-resolution.
My research interests primarily revolve around computer vision, deep learning, and generative AI, with a growing interest for 3D modeling and video generation. -
Kalhan Koul
Ph.D. Student in Electrical Engineering, admitted Autumn 2019
BioKalhan Koul is an EE Ph.D. student at Stanford University supervised by Prof. Priyanka Raina. Previously, he was a Digital Design Intern at Micron and Silicon Labs. He received a B.S. in Electrical Engineering Honors and a B.A. in Plan II Honors (Liberal Arts) from The University of Texas in 2018 and his M.S. in Electrical Engineering from Stanford University in 2021. During his PhD he has worked on three chip tapeouts. The first was Chimera, a DNN accelerator utilizing RRAM for low energy inference. The next was Amber, a coarse grained reconfigurable array (CGRA) optimized for image processing and machine learning applications. Finally, Kalhan led the tapeout of Onyx, a CGRA accelerating both dense and sparse kernels on the same fabric. His current research focuses on further improving the efficiency of the CGRA and extending its acceleration to end-to-end machine learning workloads.

Ilan Kroo
Thomas V. Jones Professor in the School of Engineering
BioProfessor Kroo's research involves work in three general areas: multidisciplinary optimization and aircraft synthesis, unconventional aircraft, and low-speed aerodynamics. Current research in the field of aircraft synthesis, sponsored by NASA and industry, includes the development of a new computational architecture for aircraft design, and its integration with numerical optimization. Studies of unconventional configurations employ rapid turnaround analysis methods in the design of efficient subsonic and supersonic commercial aircraft. Recent research has included investigation of configurations such as joined wings, oblique wings, and tailless aircraft. Nonlinear low-speed aerodynamics studies have focused on vortex wake roll-up, refined computation of induced drag, the design of wing tips, and the aerodynamics of maneuvering aircraft.
