Christian Linder
Professor of Civil and Environmental Engineering
BioChristian Linder is a Professor of Civil and Environmental Engineering and, by courtesy, of Mechanical Engineering. Through the development of novel and efficient in-house computational methods based on a sound mathematical foundation, the research goal of the Computational Mechanics of Materials (CM2) Lab at Stanford University, led by Dr. Linder, is to understand micromechanically originated multi-scale and multi-physics mechanisms in solid materials undergoing large deformations and fracture. Applications include sustainable energy storage materials, flexible electronics, and granular materials.
Dr. Linder received his Ph.D. in Civil and Environmental Engineering from UC Berkeley, an MA in Mathematics from UC Berkeley, an M.Sc. in Computational Mechanics from the University of Stuttgart, and a Dipl.-Ing. degree in Civil Engineering from TU Graz. Before joining Stanford in 2013 he was a Junior-Professor of Micromechanics of Materials at the Applied Mechanics Institute of Stuttgart University where he also obtained his Habilitation in Mechanics. Notable honors include a Fulbright scholarship, the 2013 Richard-von-Mises Prize, the 2016 ICCM International Computational Method Young Investigator Award, the 2016 NSF CAREER Award, and the 2019 Presidential Early Career Award for Scientists and Engineers (PECASE). -

Trevor Loy
Adjunct Lecturer, Stanford Engineering Center for Global and Online Education
BioTrevor Loy is the Managing Partner and Founder of Flywheel Ventures, a seed- and early-stage venture capital firm that has invested in emerging startup ecosystems for more than twenty-five years.
As an Adjunct Lecturer at Stanford, Trevor teaches entrepreneurial management and finance in the Management Science & Engineering Department, where he is affiliated with the Stanford Technology Ventures Program, a research and teaching center he helped create as a graduate student. He also teaches professional and executive education programs for the Stanford Engineering Center for Global & Online Education, as well as for global companies, universities, governments, and sovereign wealth funds.
Trevor shapes venture capital and entrepreneurship policy as a former director of the National Venture Capital Association and a current member of its Board Alumni Council. He also served as Chair of VenturePAC, the venture capital industry's national political action committee, and is a frequent expert witness in private litigation and government policymaking worldwide.
Before founding Flywheel, Trevor held founding, executive, and technical roles at startups including Brooktree, Gigabeat, and ParkingNet, as well as at large tech firms such as Intel, Rockwell, and Teradyne.
He holds a BS and MS in Electrical Engineering and an MS in Management Science & Engineering, all from Stanford University.
