Steven G Blank
Adjunct Professor, Management Science and Engineering
BioSteve Blank is Adjunct Professor in the Department of Management Science and Engineering (MS&E) at Stanford University. He teaches courses on Lean Startups, innovation, and entrepreneurship in MS&E at Stanford.
In 2009 he was awarded the Stanford University Undergraduate Teaching Award in the department of Management Science and Engineering.
In 2013 his article "Why the Lean Startup Changes Everything" was the cover of the May 2013 Harvard Business Review
In 2014 the National Science Foundation and NCIIA awarded him the Outstanding Leadership Award for his work on developing the NSF Innovation Corps curriculum
In 2011 at the request of the National Science Foundation he modified ENG245, the Lean Launchpad class and it became the curriculum for the NSF Innovation-Corps..
In 2014 he developed the I-Corps@NIH curriculum to accelerate how research gets from the lab bench to the bedside for therapeutics, diagnostics and medical devices.
In 2016 he co-launched two new Management Science and Engineering (MS&E) classes at Stanford – MS&E 297 Hacking for Defense and its sister class – MS&E 298 Hacking for Diplomacy. He was on the list of the Thinkers50 ranking of top global management thinkers.
He has written 3 books including: The Four Steps to the Epiphany, The Startup Owners Manual (co-authored with Bob Dorf) and Holding a Cat By Its Tail.
His talk, The Secret History of Silicon Valley is often referred to as "the real story of how Silicon Valley started"
He blogs regularly at www.steveblank.com -
Kwabena Boahen
Professor of Bioengineering and of Electrical Engineering
Current Research and Scholarly InterestsBoahen's group analyzes neural behavior computationally to elucidate principles of neural design at the cellular, circuit, and systems levels; and synthesizes neuromorphic electronic systems that scale energy-use with size as efficiently as the brain does. This interdisciplinary research program bridges neurobiology and medicine with electronics and computer science, bringing together these seemingly disparate fields.

Alexandria Boehm
Richard and Rhoda Goldman Professor of Environmental Studies, Professor of Oceans and Senior Fellow at the Woods Institute for the Environment
BioI am interested in pathogens in the environment including their sources, fate, and transport in natural and engineered systems. I am interested in understanding of how pathogens are transmitted to humans through contact with water, feces, and contaminated surfaces. My research is focused on key problems in both developed and developing countries with the overarching goal of designing and testing novel interventions and technologies for reducing the burden of disease.
I am also interested broadly in coastal water quality where my work addresses the sources, transformation, transport, and ecology of biocolloids - specifically fecal indicator organisms, DNA, pathogens, and phytoplankton - as well as sources and fate of nitrogen. This knowledge is crucial to formulating new management policies and engineering practices that protect human and ecosystem health at the coastal margins. -
Jeannette Bohg
Associate Professor of Computer Science
BioJeannette Bohg is an Assistant Professor of Computer Science at Stanford University. She was a group leader at the Autonomous Motion Department (AMD) of the MPI for Intelligent Systems until September 2017. Before joining AMD in January 2012, Jeannette Bohg was a PhD student at the Division of Robotics, Perception and Learning (RPL) at KTH in Stockholm. In her thesis, she proposed novel methods towards multi-modal scene understanding for robotic grasping. She also studied at Chalmers in Gothenburg and at the Technical University in Dresden where she received her Master in Art and Technology and her Diploma in Computer Science, respectively. Her research focuses on perception and learning for autonomous robotic manipulation and grasping. She is specifically interesting in developing methods that are goal-directed, real-time and multi-modal such that they can provide meaningful feedback for execution and learning. Jeannette Bohg has received several awards, most notably the 2019 IEEE International Conference on Robotics and Automation (ICRA) Best Paper Award, the 2019 IEEE Robotics and Automation Society Early Career Award and the 2017 IEEE Robotics and Automation Letters (RA-L) Best Paper Award.

Ivo Bolsens
Adjunct Professor
BioDirector of System X and instructor for EE310
Ivo retired from AMD as Senior Vice-President Corporate Research and Advanced Development. He managed advanced hardware and software technology development, including future architectures and software stacks to enable emerging opportunities in the fields of AI and embedded computing. His team was also driving the university partnerships to create a thriving, global ecosystem for AMD technology in academia.
He joined AMD in 2022, as part of the Xilinx acquisition. At Xilinx, he served as the Chief Technology Officer in charge of corporate research. He joined Xilinx in 2001 from the Interuniversity Microelectronics Centre (IMEC), an international research center based in Belgium. At IMEC he was vice president leading the R&D of digital signal processing hardware and software. During his tenure at IMEC, he spun-out several successful startups in the field of SOC design tools and wireless systems.
He serves on the advisory boards of IMEC, the Engineering Departments of San Jose State University and Santa Clara University, and the Department of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences at UC Berkeley.
He received his Master’s degree and PhD degree (EE) from the KU Leuven university in Belgium. -
Dan Boneh
Cryptography Professor and Professor of Electrical Engineering
BioProfessor Boneh heads the applied cryptography group and co-direct the computer security lab. Professor Boneh's research focuses on applications of cryptography to computer security. His work includes cryptosystems with novel properties, web security, security for mobile devices, and cryptanalysis. He is the author of over a hundred publications in the field and is a Packard and Alfred P. Sloan fellow. He is a recipient of the 2014 ACM prize and the 2013 Godel prize. In 2011 Dr. Boneh received the Ishii award for industry education innovation. Professor Boneh received his Ph.D from Princeton University and joined Stanford in 1997.
