Wei Li
Adjunct Professor, Institute for Computational and Mathematical Engineering (ICME)
BioDr. Wei Li is an AI executive and Stanford University Adjunct Professor operating at the intersection of AI strategy, Precision AI Governance, and enterprise scale. Wei works on Innovation to Impact (I2I) and Trusted AI—turning computational, AI, and interdisciplinary ideas into deployable systems, scalable products, and measurable business and clinical outcomes.
Currently, Wei collaborates across Stanford’s Schools of Engineering and Medicine, focusing on the deployment of AI in high-stakes environments where technical capability must meet rigorous standards for safety, ethics, and human-centric design.
Previously, as VP/GM of AI & Analytics (AIA) at Intel, Wei led global teams building full-stack AI platforms that generated multi-billion-dollar revenues. His commitment to industry-wide oversight is reflected in his prior governance leadership on the boards of the PyTorch Foundation and Linux Foundation AI & Data, where he championed collaboration alongside leaders from Meta, OpenAI, Google, and Microsoft.
A sought-after keynote speaker at Harvard Business School, Fortune, and the World AI Summit, Wei is a frequent contributor to outlets like Bloomberg on matters of AI strategy and enterprise risk management.
He holds a Ph.D. in Computer Science from Cornell University and completed an executive program at the Stanford Graduate School of Business. -
Christian Linder
Professor of Civil and Environmental Engineering
On Leave from 04/01/2026 To 06/30/2026BioChristian Linder is a Professor of Civil and Environmental Engineering and, by courtesy, of Mechanical Engineering. Through the development of novel and efficient in-house computational methods based on a sound mathematical foundation, the research goal of the Computational Mechanics of Materials (CM2) Lab at Stanford University, led by Dr. Linder, is to understand micromechanically originated multi-scale and multi-physics mechanisms in solid materials undergoing large deformations and fracture. Applications include sustainable energy storage materials, flexible electronics, and granular materials.
Dr. Linder received his Ph.D. in Civil and Environmental Engineering from UC Berkeley, an MA in Mathematics from UC Berkeley, an M.Sc. in Computational Mechanics from the University of Stuttgart, and a Dipl.-Ing. degree in Civil Engineering from TU Graz. Before joining Stanford in 2013 he was a Junior-Professor of Micromechanics of Materials at the Applied Mechanics Institute of Stuttgart University where he also obtained his Habilitation in Mechanics. Notable honors include a Fulbright scholarship, the 2013 Richard-von-Mises Prize, the 2016 ICCM International Computational Method Young Investigator Award, the 2016 NSF CAREER Award, and the 2019 Presidential Early Career Award for Scientists and Engineers (PECASE). -

Trevor Loy
Adjunct Lecturer, Management Science and Engineering
Instructor, Stanford Engineering Center for Global and Online EducationBioTrevor Loy is the Managing Partner and Founder of Flywheel Ventures, a seed- and early-stage venture capital firm that has invested in emerging startup ecosystems for more than twenty-five years.
As an Adjunct Lecturer at Stanford, Trevor teaches entrepreneurial management and finance in the Management Science & Engineering Department, where he is affiliated with the Stanford Technology Ventures Program, a research and teaching center he helped create as a graduate student. He also teaches professional and executive education programs for the Stanford Engineering Center for Global & Online Education, as well as for global companies, universities, governments, and sovereign wealth funds.
Trevor shapes venture capital and entrepreneurship policy as a former director of the National Venture Capital Association and a current member of its Board Alumni Council. He also served as Chair of VenturePAC, the venture capital industry's national political action committee, and is a frequent expert witness in private litigation and government policymaking worldwide.
Before founding Flywheel, Trevor held founding, executive, and technical roles at startups including Brooktree, Gigabeat, and ParkingNet, as well as at large tech firms such as Intel, Rockwell, and Teradyne.
He holds a BS and MS in Electrical Engineering and an MS in Management Science & Engineering, all from Stanford University. -

Ali Mani
Professor of Mechanical Engineering
BioAli Mani is a professor of Mechanical Engineering at Stanford University. He is a faculty affiliate of the Institute for Computational and Mathematical Engineering at Stanford. He received his PhD in Mechanical Engineering from Stanford in 2009. Prior to joining the faculty in 2011, he was an engineering research associate at Stanford and a senior postdoctoral associate at Massachusetts Institute of Technology in the Department of Chemical Engineering. His research group builds and utilizes large-scale high-fidelity numerical simulations, as well as methods of applied mathematics, to develop quantitative understanding of transport processes that involve strong coupling with fluid flow and commonly involve turbulence or chaos. His teaching includes the undergraduate engineering math classes and graduate courses on fluid mechanics and numerical analysis.
