Michael Baird
Postdoctoral Scholar, Chemical Engineering
BioMike Baird obtained a B.S. in chemistry from University of California, Riverside. He then spent two years in industry at Illumina before resuming his studies at University of California, Berkeley, completing a Ph.D. in chemistry. Mike conducted his doctoral research in the laboratory of Brett Helms at Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory, where he synthesized microporous polymer membranes and sorbents for lithium extraction from natural feedstocks which are highly dilute in the target species. He additionally investigated electrolytes for next-generation battery chemistries (i.e., lithium metal anode) with suitable transport and reactivity characteristics for aggressive battery operation.

Abrar Bhat
Postdoctoral Scholar, Chemical Engineering
Current Research and Scholarly InterestsI am investigating the biophysical mechanisms that govern the organization and function of adhesion GPCRs involved in the process of synapse formation. aGPCRs possess dual roles in cell adhesion and signaling. Despite their importance in processes like neuronal synapse formation and association with various neuropsychiatric disorders, the precise mechanisms governing their organization and function at the cell membrane remain enigmatic.

Kang Rui Garrick Lim
Postdoctoral Scholar, Chemical Engineering
BioI am a materials chemist from Singapore and a Stanford Energy Postdoctoral Fellow with Prof. Matteo Cargnello and Prof. Thomas Jaramillo. In 2027, I will start as a Nanyang Assistant Professor of Materials Science & Engineering at Nanyang Technological University (NTU) in Singapore. I completed my PhD and Master's degree in chemistry at Harvard under Prof. Joanna Aizenberg, and my Bachelor's degree in chemistry from the National University of Singapore (NUS).
At Stanford (2025-), I work on colloidal catalyst design for CO2 conversion as part of the SUNCAT Center for Interface Science and Catalysis. During my PhD at Harvard (2020-2025), I integrated colloidal templating and self-assembly concepts into catalyst design to design 3D macroporous inverse opal structures incorporating dilute alloy nanoparticles to serve as a model thermocatalytic platform. Previously, at NUS and IMRE A*STAR in Singapore (2019-2020), I synthesized MXene nanohybrids for electrocatalysis and designed core-shell quantum dots for light harvesting. My broader research interest is to leverage on colloidal design of catalytic architectures–their active sites and immediate environment–to bridge the materials gap in catalyst design for low carbon energy research. -

Mohammad Javad Mirshojaeian Hosseini
Postdoctoral Scholar, Chemical Engineering
BioWith over Seven years of experience, my work focuses on designing, fabricating, and characterizing flexible nanostructures and organic neuromorphic circuits. My expertise extends to hands-on experience in ISO 4 cleanrooms and fabrication labs, employing a variety of techniques such as electron beam and thermal PVD, ALD, sputtering, photolithography, CVD, profilometry, and wet chemical processing. I have a strong foundation in advanced materials and technologies, including neuromorphic systems, nanofabrication, biosensors, lab-on-a-chip technologies, printing electronics, and organic nanoelectronics.
Currently, I am a postdoctoral researcher at Stanford University, where I explore stretchable neuromorphic e-skin and flexible electronics, particularly for biopotential monitoring and soft robotics applications. My multidisciplinary expertise enables me to contribute to projects that combine neuromorphic computing, smart materials, and neuroscience. These align with my long-term research goals of advancing neuromorphic systems and developing novel technologies at the interface of artificial intelligence, smart materials, and organic electronics.
