Sheri D. Sheppard
Richard W. Weiland Professor in the School of Engineering, Emerita
BioSheri Sheppard teaches both undergraduate and graduate design-related classes, and conducts research on fracture mechanics and applied finite element analysis, and on how people become engineers. From 1999-2008 she served as a Senior Scholar at the Carnegie Foundation for the Advancement of Teaching, leading the Foundation’s engineering study. In addition to publishing technical papers, reports, and textbooks, she has led or co-led several large, multi-institutional projects to build new educational research programs and related resources, such as the Center for the Advancement of Engineering Education (CAEE), The National Center for Engineering Pathways to Innovation (Epicenter), and a program on summer research experiences for high school teachers. Her industry experience includes engineering positions at Detroit's "Big Three” — Ford Motor Company, General Motors Corporation, and Chrysler Corporation. She earned her bachelors degree from the University of Wisconsin, and her PhD at the University of Michigan. At Stanford she has served a chair of the faculty senate, as associate vice provost for graduate education, and is the longtime faculty founder of and adviser to the graduate student group MEwomen. Her work has been recognized with numerous honors and awards, including the Walter J. Gores Award, Stanford University's highest award for excellence in teaching and the Chester F. Carlson and Ralph Coats Roe Awards of the American Society for Engineering Education in recognition of distinguished accomplishment in engineering education, and for outstanding teaching and notable contributions to the mechanical engineering profession.

Chungheon Shin
Research Engineer, Civil and Environmental Engineering
BioChungheon Shin is the Research Director of the Codiga Resource Recovery Center at Stanford University. His research advances sustainable water and environmental technologies through process intensification, environmental biotechnology, and resource recovery. By integrating biological and physicochemical processes with mechanistic and data-driven computational models, he develops engineering solutions that recover clean water, energy, and valuable resources. His work spans multiple scales, from fundamental reaction kinetics to pilot- and demonstration-scale systems, with a strong emphasis on translating research into real-world applications.
His current research focuses on three complementary areas: process intensification, resource recovery, and digital optimization of water infrastructure. He has led the development of the Staged Anaerobic Fluidized-bed Membrane Bioreactor (SAF-MBR), an energy-positive wastewater treatment technology that has advanced to demonstration scale, and is developing pilot-scale methane-to-protein technologies that convert waste methane into sustainable protein through efficient gas transfer and environmental biotechnology. His research also integrates mechanistic understanding with data-driven modeling to optimize biological treatment processes and accelerate the deployment of next-generation water technologies.
Dr. Shin received his Ph.D. in Environmental Engineering from Inha University in South Korea, where he developed the SAF-MBR under the supervision of Professor Jaehoe Bae and Professor Perry L. McCarty. He subsequently joined the Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering at Stanford University as a postdoctoral scholar under Professor Craig S. Criddle, where he expanded his research in environmental biotechnology, process intensification, and sustainable water infrastructure. -
Yoav Shoham
Professor of Computer Science, Emeritus
BioYoav Shoham is professor emeritus of computer science at Stanford University. A leading AI expert, Prof. Shoham is Fellow of AAAI, ACM and the Game Theory Society. Among his awards are the IJCAI Research Excellence Award, the AAAI/ACM Allen Newell Award, and the ACM/SIGAI Autonomous Agents Research Award.
