Kirankumar Shiragur
Ph.D. Student in Management Science and Engineering, admitted Autumn 2016
BioKiran Shiragur is a final year PhD student at Stanford, co-advised by Prof. Moses Charikar and Prof. Aaron Sidford. His research interests lie in the intersection of theoretical computer science, statistics, information theory and optimization. A major theme of his work involves building efficient algorithms for extracting information from limited data. Complementary to this theme, he also enjoy formulating new mathematical models and practical solutions for problems in the natural and social sciences, that lie beyond the range of traditional machinery.

Nian Si
Ph.D. Student in Management Science and Engineering, admitted Autumn 2017
Ph.D. Minor, Computer ScienceBioI am a PhD student in the Department of Management Science and Engineering (MS&E) at Stanford University, where I am fortunate to be advised by Prof. Jose Blanchet. I am a member of the Stanford Operations Research Group.
Previously, I obtained a B.A. in Economics and a B.S. in Mathematics both from Peking University in 2017. My research interests lie broadly in applied probability, stochastic modeling and robust optimization.
In my spare time, I like outdoor activities, including hiking, marathons and triathlons. Besides these, I am a serious contract bridge player. -
Aaron Sidford
Assistant Professor of Management Science and Engineering and of Computer Science
Current Research and Scholarly InterestsMy research interests lie broadly in the optimization, the theory of computation, and the design and analysis of algorithms. I am particularly interested in work at the intersection of continuous optimization, graph theory, numerical linear algebra, and data structures.
