    BioAdjunct Professor of Medicine | Cardiovascular Medicine | Stanford Medicine

    Seasoned clinician with a proven track record of mentoring medtech entrepreneurs and early stage companies in the development of life changing technologies. As the Associate Director of the PAMF Hospital Medicine service line he co-leads a team of 30 physicians across 3 community hospitals in the Bay Area. When not seeing patients, he serves as the Chief Medical Officer at Fogarty Innovation where he mentors a variety of early stage companies. As an Adjunct Professor of Medicine at Stanford he works closely with the Biodesign group to teach and mentor students and Biodesign fellows. He co-teaches the Biodesign Innovation graduate course which is offered to Stanford graduate students in the school of medicine, school of engineering and the graduate school of business each winter and spring quarter. Zach holds an MD from the UCLA School of Medicine and an MBA from the UCLA Anderson School of Management. He completed Internal Medicine Residency and the Biodesign Fellowship at Stanford University.

  • Christopher Edwards

    Christopher Edwards

    Professor of Mechanical Engineering, Emeritus

    BioThe Edwards research group is focused on fundamental research for advanced energy technologies. The group performs theoretical and experimental studies of energy transformations such that the conversion process can be made cleaner, more efficient, and more controllable than has been possible with traditional technologies. Applications include advanced transportation engines (piston and turbine) and advanced electric power generation with carbon mitigation.

  • Matthew R. Edwards

    Matthew R. Edwards

    Assistant Professor of Mechanical Engineering

    BioMatthew Edwards is an Assistant Professor of Mechanical Engineering. His research applies high-power lasers to the development of optical diagnostics for fluids and plasmas, the study of intense light-matter interactions, and the construction of compact light and particle sources, combining adaptive high-repetition-rate experiments and large-scale simulations to explore new regimes in fluid mechanics, thermodynamics, materials science, and plasma physics.

    Matthew received BSE, MA, and PhD degrees in Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering from Princeton University. He was then a Lawrence Fellow in the National Ignition Facility and Photon Science Directorate at Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory.

  • Paul N. Edwards

    Paul N. Edwards

    BioI retired in January 2026 to escape rising fascism in the USA. Until then, I was Director of the Program on Science, Technology & Society (STS) and a Senior Research Scholar at the Center for International Security and Cooperation at Stanford. I also co-directed the Stanford Existential Risks Initiative with Prof. Steve Luby.

    I'm also Professor of Information and History (Emeritus) at the University of Michigan, where I worked for 19 years in the School of Information, the Dept. of History, and the STS Program. I taught previously at Stanford from 1992-1998, in the STS Program and the Computer Science Dept.

    I study the history, politics, and culture of information infrastructures, especially climate knowledge systems. My books include A Vast Machine: Computer Models, Climate Data, and the Politics of Global Warming (MIT Press, 2010), The Closed World: Computers and the Politics of Discourse in Cold War America (MIT Press, 1996), and Changing the Atmosphere: Expert Knowledge and Environmental Governance (MIT Press, 2001, co-edited with Clark Miller). With Janet Vertesi (Princeton), I'm academic editor of the MIT Press book series Infrastructures.

    I served as one of 234 Lead Authors for the Sixth Assessment Report of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change, Working Group I (Physical Sciences), released in August 2021.
