Joshua Ott
Ph.D. Student in Aeronautics and Astronautics, admitted Autumn 2021
Ph.D. Minor, Earth and Planetary SciencesBioJoshua is a fourth-year Ph.D. Candidate in Aeronautics & Astronautics at Stanford University and is a recipient of the Stanford Graduate Fellowship (SGF) in Science & Engineering. He is currently serving on Active Duty in the United States Air Force through the DAWN-ED PhD fellowship. Joshua is a researcher in the Stanford Intelligent Systems Lab (SISL) where his research focuses on decision making under uncertainty for autonomous systems. Joshua has also conducted research in collaboration with SISL and NASA JPL related to the DARPA Subterranean Challenge.
Joshua earned his Bachelor of Science in Mechanical Engineering from the University of California, Berkeley in 2020. During his time at UC Berkeley, Joshua's work focused on optimization methods for bioinspired design, machine learning for real time manufacturing control, and experimental multi-phase flow analysis. Joshua has also interned at Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory and the NASA Jet Propulsion Laboratory. -
Jasmin E. Palmer
Ph.D. Student in Mechanical Engineering, admitted Autumn 2019
BioJasmin earned a Bachelor of Science in Mechanical Engineering with a concentration in Controls, Instrumentation, and Robotics at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) and a Master of Science in Mechanical Engineering at Stanford University. Jasmin is currently pursuing her Ph.D. in Mechanical Engineering at Stanford University and conducting research with faculty supervisor Professor Allison Okamura in the Collaborative Haptics in Robotics in Medicine (CHARM) Lab. Jasmin’s Ph.D. research centers around human-computer interaction and haptics, the science of and relating to the sense of touch. Developing technology that provides beneficial haptic feedback to human operators requires a multi-pronged and interdisciplinary approach. Her work leverages concepts from psychology and neuroscience to understand human perception, experimental design, and statistical analysis, and also applies her engineering background in dynamic modeling of physical systems and mechatronic system development in order to develop novel designs for wearable devices. The goal of her thesis is to develop an adaptable simulation framework that provides realistic haptic feedback for humans to perform various dexterous manipulation tasks in dynamic virtual reality (VR) and mixed reality (MR) environments using wrist-worn tactile devices. Jasmin wants to become an inspiration for other women of color to pursue careers in STEM fields. Jasmin also enjoys composing music, playing the flute, and studying foreign languages.

Tetiana Parshakova
Ph.D. Student in Computational and Mathematical Engineering, admitted Autumn 2019
BioI am a Ph.D. candidate in Computational Mathematics at Stanford, working with Prof. Stephen Boyd.
My primary research objective is to develop efficient algorithms for computational problems using techniques from optimization, discrete mathematics, and statistics. In particular, my research interests include large-scale and distributed convex optimization, network science, learning and inference for network data, numerical and randomized linear algebra, low rank and structured optimization, and machine learning.
Prior to my Ph.D., I received a Bachelor’s in Industrial Design and a Master’s in Electrical Engineering at KAIST.
I am Ukrainian.
