Maria Sakovsky
Affiliate, Aeronautics and Astronautics
BioMaria Sakovsky's work focuses on the use of shape adaptation to realize space structures with reconfigurable geometry, stiffness, and even non-mechanical performance (ex. electromagnetic, optical). Particular focus is placed on the mechanics of thin fiber reinforced composite structures, the interplay between composite material properties and structural geometry, as well as embedded functionality and actuation of lightweight structures. The work has led to applications in deployable space structures, reconfigurable antennas, and soft robotics.
Maria Sakovsky received her BSc in Aerospace Engineering from the University of Toronto. Following this, she completed her MSc and PhD in Space Engineering at Caltech, where she developed a deployable satellite antenna based on origami concepts utilizing elastomer composites. She concurrently worked with NASA’s Jet Propulsion Laboratory on developing cryogenically rated thin-ply composite antennas for deep space missions. For her ongoing research on physically reconfigurable antennas, she was awarded the ETH Zürich postdoctoral fellowship as well as the Innovation Starting Grant. -
J Kenneth Salisbury, Jr.
Professor (Research) of Computer Science and of Surgery (Anatomy), Emeritus
BioSalisbury worked on the development of the Stanford-JPL Robot Hand, the JPL Force Reflecting Hand Controller, the MIT-WAM arm, and the Black Falcon Surgical Robot. His work with haptic interface technology led to the founding of SensAble Technology, producers of the PHANToM haptic interface and software. He also worked on the development of telerobotic systems for dexterity enhancement in the operating room. His current research focuses on human-machine interaction, cooperative haptics, medical robotics, and surgical simulation.

Marc L. Salit
Adjunct Professor, Bioengineering
BioMarc is the Director of the Joint Initiative for Metrology in Biology, co-founded with Stanford University colleagues to create a new scientific institution devoted to biometrology -- the study of measurement science in biology.
His research is focused on innovation and development of measurement science, standards, methods, and tools for biology. These tools generate and sustain scientific advance by enabling sharing of reproducible data, results and materials; distribution of labor by supporting accurate, low-friction transactions; confidence in technologies permitting regulated applications; and access to quantitative measurement of previously inaccessible phenomena – all through systematic application of the principles of metrology.
Marc is an Adjunct Professor in the Stanford University Departments of Bioengineering and of Pathology, where he works closely with faculty colleagues and mentoring students and postdoctoral fellows. -
