Priya Nair
Ph.D. Student in Bioengineering, admitted Autumn 2020
BioI received my Bachelor's degree in Biomedical Engineering with a minor in Industrial Design from Georgia Institute of Technology in 2020. During my time at Georgia Tech, I worked as an undergraduate researcher in Dr. Ajit Yoganathan's Cardiovascular Fluid Mechanics Lab. My project was focused on studying the contribution of foreign materials to thrombosis in transcatheter aortic valves using an in vitro flow loop. Beyond my research interests, I was also actively involved in the Society of Women Engineers, promoting outreach activities and creating mentorship opportunities for women in STEM.

Suresh Nambi
Masters Student in Electrical Engineering, admitted Autumn 2023
BioI am a second-year master’s student pursuing MS EE (Computer Architecture and Embedded Systems track) at Stanford University.
My research interests lie primarily in the area of Computer Systems Architecture. My research involves the development and implementation of efficient and effective hardware architectures for a given application. I am constantly striving to improve my understanding of computing systems, to develop better intuition of the tradeoffs involved, and make better well-informed hardware architecture decisions.
Before starting my MS, I worked at Nvidia as an ASIC Design Engineer in the GPU Hardware Security team, where I contributed to the development of computer chips used in datacenters. Prior to that I worked at Ceremorphic a stealth startup on their first energy-efficient AI supercomputing test chip and gained insight into their heterogenous computing model.
I completed my undergraduate studies at BITS Pilani, India. During this period, I was associated with Prof. Akash Kumar at the Chair for Processor Design, TU Dresden for my year-long undergraduate thesis. I also had the opportunity to work under Prof. Gerd Grau during my MITACS Globalink Summer Internship. -
Sanjiv Narayan
Professor of Medicine (Cardiovascular Medicine)
Current Research and Scholarly InterestsDr. Narayan directs the Computational Arrhythmia Research Laboratory, whose goal is to define the mechanisms underlying complex human heart rhythm disorders, to develop bioengineering-focused solutions to improve therapy that will be tested in clinical trials. The laboratory has been funded continuously since 2001 by the National Institutes of Health, AHA and ACC, and interlinks a disease-focused group of clinicians, computational physicists, bioengineers and trialists.

Renato Navarro
Postdoctoral Scholar, Materials Science and Engineering
BioMy research goal is to achieve comprehensive solutions to cardiovascular clinical challenges via chemistry approaches to produce tailorable materials that serve as scaffolds or therapeutic delivery vehicles that enhance tissue regeneration. I am a trained polymer chemist with expertise in biomaterials engineering for cardiovascular regeneration and nanomedicine. My graduate research experience, under the supervision of Peter X. Ma, focused on broadening the use of tunable tissue engineering scaffolds by developing polymers with chemical functionality that can be easily and rapidly fashioned into biomimetic physical constructs and activated with regulatory signals (biomolecules, peptides, and growth factors). I accomplished this by developing novel polymer synthesis methods that are cost-effective and facile to ease the path toward clinical translation. As a postdoctoral scholar, my current training is under the co-supervision of Prof. Sarah Heilshorn and Prof. Joseph Wu as a K99/R00 MOSAIC Fellow. My work entails the development of tailored injectable hydrogels for the local delivery of therapies after a myocardial infarct.
