Elizabeth Sattely
Associate Professor of Chemical Engineering
BioPlants have an extraordinary capacity to harvest atmospheric CO2 and sunlight for the production of energy-rich biopolymers, clinically used drugs, and other biologically active small molecules. The metabolic pathways that produce these compounds are key to developing sustainable biofuel feedstocks, protecting crops from pathogens, and discovering new natural-product based therapeutics for human disease. These applications motivate us to find new ways to elucidate and engineer plant metabolism. We use a multidisciplinary approach combining chemistry, enzymology, genetics, and metabolomics to tackle problems that include new methods for delignification of lignocellulosic biomass and the engineering of plant antibiotic biosynthesis.

Silvio Savarese
Associate Professor of Computer Science
BioSilvio Savarese is an Associate Professor of Computer Science at Stanford University and the inaugural Mindtree Faculty Scholar. He earned his Ph.D. in Electrical Engineering from the California Institute of Technology in 2005 and was a Beckman Institute Fellow at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign from 2005–2008. He joined Stanford in 2013 after being Assistant and then Associate Professor of Electrical and Computer Engineering at the University of Michigan, Ann Arbor, from 2008 to 2013. From 2016 to 2018, he served as a director of the SAIL-Toyota Center for AI Research at Stanford. In 2017 he co-founded an AI-to-business start up where he built and directed as Chief Scientist a large R&D team until 2020.
Dr Savarese addresses theoretical foundations and practical applications of computational vision and robotic perception. His research focuses on developing algorithms for enabling autonomous and embodied systems to understand and interact with the environment. Contributions include: i) investigation of methods for interpreting complex situations and behaviors from sensory streams; ii) development of computational models for capturing social norms and common sense rules allowing agents to effectively predict and respond to the environment; iii) exploration of machine vision methodologies for enabling automatic performance analysis and sustainability assessment in construction engineering.
Dr Savarese has published more than 200 scientific articles in top-tier journals and conferences, including IJCV, IEEE-PAMI, CVPR, ICCV, NIPS, ECCV, ICRA, IROS, and RSS.
