Melissa Boswell
Postdoctoral Scholar, Bioengineering
BioI am a postdoctoral scholar at Stanford University in the Neuromuscular Biomechanics Laboratory, where I also received my PhD in Bioengineering. I'm passionate about monitoring, improving, and motivating movement and increasing access to health care with digital technology. My research bridges the fields of biomechanics, psychology, and computer science to understand not just how we move, but how we think about movement and our motivation for being physically active. I value human-centered design and a holistic, lifestyle-focused approach to engineering and medicine. I enjoy cultivating creativity and humor in work and life, sharing ideas, and communicating science, particularly on my podcast, Biomechanics On Our Minds (my mom says it's her favorite biomechanics podcast).

Anthony Cesnik
Postdoctoral Scholar, Bioengineering
BioI am advancing the vision of enabling an understanding of biology at the proteoform level, peering into the cellular machinery in a way that reveals precisely which molecule is acting in the biological system. Recently, I have been working in Emma Lundberg’s lab on understanding how the expression of these molecules varies between individual cells in space and time. Emma Lundberg’s group has a wealth of experience in using microscopy to yield biological images that paint a picture of this cell-to-cell heterogeneity of protein expression information, and joining her lab has deepened my expertise in integrating datasets to perform innovative analyses of single-cell protein expression. I hope to extend this towards analyzing single-cell proteoform expression, understanding the heterogeneity and flux between these proteoforms in space and time, and digging into the fundamental insights about human biology these data may reveal.

Stephen Clarke
Postdoctoral Scholar, Bioengineering
BioStephen E. Clarke, PhD, is a postdoctoral scholar in the Brain Interfacing Lab, Department of Bioengineering. He obtained a BSc in Mathematics from the University of New Brunswick, and a PhD in Neuroscience from the University of Ottawa. His research draws on combined experimental and computational expertise to explore neuronal information processing on multiple scales, and across species. His long-term research goals involve application of closed-loop brain machine interface technologies as a platform for neurorehabilitation and repair in motor and cognitive systems, leveraging both insights from basic neuroscience and exciting new implant technologies.
Research Interests: Sensory and Motor Systems Neuroscience, Computational Neuroscience, Cellular and Molecular Neuroscience, Applied Mathematics, Neurorehabilitation and Repair. -
Antoine Falisse
Postdoctoral Scholar, Bioengineering
BioDr. Falisse is a postdoctoral fellow in Bioengineering working on computational approaches to study human movement disorders. He primarily uses optimization methods, biomechanical modeling, and data from various sources (wearables, videos, medical images) to get insights into movement abnormalities and design innovative treatments and rehabilitation protocols.
Dr. Falisse received his PhD from KU Leuven (Belgium) where he worked on modeling and simulating the locomotion of children with cerebral palsy. His research was supported by the Research Foundation Flanders (FWO) through a personal fellowship. Dr. Falisse received several awards for his PhD work, including the David Winter Young Investigator Award, the Andrzej J. Komor Young Investigator Award, the VPHi Thesis Award in In Silico Medicine, and the KU Leuven Research Council Award in Biomedical Sciences. -
Anand Ganapathy
Postdoctoral Scholar, Bioengineering
BioI am a 2nd Year Innovation Fellow within the Human Performance Alliance in the 2022-23 class at the Stanford Byers Center for Biodesign. I just completed the Biodesign Innovation Fellowship at the Byers Center for Biodesign. I am also in my fifth year of residency in the Integrated Vascular Surgery program at the Keck Medical Center of USC in Los Angeles, California. My educational interests are in vascular surgery, medical device innovation, and entrepreneurship.

Nicos Haralabidis
Postdoctoral Scholar, Bioengineering
BioMy research interests lie within both sports and clinical biomechanics applications. I rely upon merging conventional biomechanical in vivo measurements together with state-of-the-art musculoskeletal modeling and optimal control simulation approaches. The integrative approach I take enables me to understand how an individual may run faster, jump further, walk following surgery or intervention, and simultaneously estimate internal body dynamics noninvasively. As a Postdoctoral Research Scholar within the Wu Tsai Human Performance Alliance I aim to explore how stochastic optimal control and reinforcement learning methods can be applied to further our understanding of sporting performance.
