Dustin Schroeder
Professor of Geophysics, of Electrical Engineering and Senior Fellow at the Woods Institute for the Environment
BioDustin Schroeder is a Professor of Geophysics and of Electrical Engineering at Stanford University. His research primarily focuses on observing and understanding the role of continental ice sheets and their contribution to the rate of sea level rise. A growing secondary focus of his work is the subsurface exploration of icy worlds. He also works on the development, use, and analysis of geophysical radar systems optimized to observe hypothesis-specific phenomena.
He serves on the Science Team for the REASON radar instrument on NASA’s Europa Clipper mission and previously co-chaired the mission’s Interior Working Group. At Stanford, he serves as Associate Chair of Geophysics, Associate Chair for Undergraduate Education in Electrical Engineering, Faculty Director for COLLEGE 102: Citizenship in the 21st Century, part of Stanford’s new first-year core curriculum, and Chair of the Faculty Senate. Beyond Stanford, he serves as Vice President of the International Glaciological Society and has served for more than two decades with the National Science Olympiad, including as chair of its national Earth and Space Sciences committee and as a member of its Executive Board.
Schroeder is a Fellow of the American Geophysical Union and a Senior Member of IEEE, and is a recipient of the AGU James B. Macelwane Medal and the National Science Foundation CAREER Award. His teaching has been recognized with awards across Stanford and through his selection as a Bass University Fellow in Undergraduate Education.
Before joining Stanford, he was a Radar Systems Engineer at NASA’s Jet Propulsion Laboratory at the California Institute of Technology. He earned his PhD in Geophysics from the University of Texas at Austin and holds a BS in Electrical Engineering and a BA in Physics from Bucknell University. Between his undergraduate and graduate studies, he worked as a Platform Hardware Engineer at Freescale Semiconductor. -
Debbie Senesky
Associate Professor of Aeronautics and Astronautics, of Electrical Engineering, Senior Fellow at the Precourt Institute for Energy and Associate Professor, by courtesy, of Photon Science
BioDebbie G. Senesky is an Associate Professor at Stanford University in the Aeronautics and Astronautics Department and the Electrical Engineering Department. In addition, she is the Principal Investigator of the EXtreme Environment Microsystems Laboratory (XLab). Her research interests include the development of nanomaterials for extreme harsh environments, high-temperature electronics for Venus exploration, and microgravity synthesis of nanomaterials. In the past, she has held positions at GE Sensing (formerly known as NovaSensor), GE Global Research Center, and Hewlett Packard. She received the B.S. degree (2001) in mechanical engineering from the University of Southern California. She received the M.S. degree (2004) and Ph.D. degree (2007) in mechanical engineering from the University of California, Berkeley. Prof. Senesky is the Site Director of nano@stanford. She is currently the co-editor of two technical journals: IEEE Journal of Microelectromechanical Systems and Sensors. In recognition of her research, she received the Presidential Early Career Award for Scientists and Engineers (PECASE) in 2025, Emerging Leader Abie Award from AnitaB.org in 2018, Early Faculty Career Award from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) in 2012, Gabilan Faculty Fellowship Award in 2012, and Sloan Ph.D. Fellowship from the Alfred P. Sloan Foundation in 2004.
Prof. Senesky's career path and research has been featured by Scientific American, Seeker, People Behind the Science podcast, The Future of Everything radio show, Space.com, and NPR's Tell Me More program.

Kawin Setsompop
Professor of Radiology (Radiological Sciences Laboratory) and, by courtesy, of Electrical Engineering
BioKawin Setsompop is a Professor of Radiology and, by courtesy, of Electrical Engineering. His research focuses on the development of novel MRI acquisition methods, with the goal of creating imaging technologies that can be used to help better understand brain structure and function for applications in Healthcare and Health sciences. He received his Master’s degree in Engineering Science from Oxford University and his PhD in Electrical Engineering and Computer Science from MIT. Prior to joining Stanford, he was a postdoctoral fellow and subsequently a faculty at the A.A. Martinos center for biomedical imaging, MGH, as well as part of the Harvard and MIT faculty. His group has pioneered several widely-used MRI acquisition technologies, a number of which have been successfully translated into FDA-approved clinical products on Siemens, GE, Phillips, United Imaging and Bruker MRI scanners worldwide. These technologies are being used daily to study the brain in both clinical and neuroscientific fields.

Yanjie Shao
Assistant Professor of Electrical Engineering
BioYanjie Shao joined Stanford University as an Assistant Professor of Electrical Engineering in August 2026. He received his Ph.D. in Electrical Engineering from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) and his B.S. in Physics from the University of Science and Technology of China (USTC). His research develops advanced semiconductor materials, devices, and integrated systems for energy-efficient information processing, with a particular focus on CMOS-compatible technologies, three-dimensional electronics, and nanoscale transport physics. His work integrates materials synthesis, nanofabrication, device characterization, and physics-based modeling.
Before joining Stanford, Yanjie was a postdoctoral researcher at MIT working with Prof. Jesús del Alamo and Prof. Dimitri Antoniadis, where he developed high-performance amorphous oxide semiconductor transistors and nanoscale ferroelectric devices for logic, memory, and AI hardware applications. His doctoral research at MIT, advised by Prof. Jesús del Alamo, advanced ultra-scaled tunneling transistors for low-voltage electronics by leveraging extreme quantum confinement to engineer tunneling transport at the nanoscale. He was a recipient of the Intel's 2023 Outstanding Researcher Award. -
