Charles Roques-Carmes
Postdoctoral Scholar, Electrical Engineering
BioCharles Roques-Carmes is a Science Fellow at Stanford and an incoming Assistant Professor at the Institute of Science and Technology Austria (ISTA). His lab studies and engineers subwavelength light–matter interactions to unlock quantum technologies, advanced microscopes, and next-generation communications and computing platforms—combining rigorous theory with ultrafast electron microscopy, X-ray imaging, and quantum sensing to turn insights into devices. Before joining ISTA, Charles was a Stanford Science Fellow at Stanford University and a Visiting Scientist at MIT, where he earned his PhD in Electrical Engineering and Computer Science in 2022. Charles has delivered 40+ invited talks at major venues including APS, CLEO, and SPIE.
In 2025, he received the inaugural Photonics Innovation Award in honor of Federico Capasso for pioneering achievements that broaden photonics’ frontiers and connect fundamentals to real-world impact; Charles is widely regarded as one of the founders of the emerging field of nanophotonic scintillation. His honors include numerous distinctions such as Forbes 30 Under 30 (Science, 2023), the Stanford Science Fellowship, the MathWorks Engineering Fellowship, the Robert B. Guenassia Award, and a Carnot Foundation Fellowship. He holds M.S. degrees from MIT (2018) and École Polytechnique (2016), and a B.S. from École Polytechnique (2015). -
Johanna S. Rosado Lozoya
Postdoctoral Scholar, Dermatology
BioDr. Johanna Rosado is a postdoctoral researcher in dermatology, mentored by Dr. Anne Chang and Dr. Zakia Rahman, studying skin frailty as a potential window into systemic disease, aging, and healthspan. Originally trained as a physician in Mexico City, she has four years of clinical experience in plastic and reconstructive surgery, primary care, and community health.
Her research focuses on understanding how skin frailty reflects broader changes in health, function, and resilience. She is also interested in skin cancer prevention, combating health misinformation, and translating evidence into accessible, actionable information that supports healthy aging.
As a New Maps of Life Fellow, she hopes to advance interdisciplinary and community-engaged approaches to promote healthier aging, and support function and quality of life across the lifespan. Her long-term goal is to integrate dermatology, prevention, and community engagement to advance a more proactive model of healthcare focused not only on treating disease, but on helping people maintain health, independence, and well-being throughout life. -
Luca Rosalia
Postdoctoral Scholar, Bioengineering
BioLuca Rosalia received his bachelor’s and master’s degrees in Biomedical Engineering from the University of Glasgow (UK). During his studies, he visited the National University of Singapore and the University of Cambridge, where he gained his first exposure to the fields of soft robotics and tissue biomechanics. He pursued doctoral studies in the Health Sciences and Technology (HST) Ph.D. program of Harvard University and Massachusetts Institute of Technology in the lab of Ellen Roche and he's currently at Stanford University as a Postdoctoral Scholar in Bioengineering in the Skylar-Scott lab.
His doctoral work primarily focused on high-fidelity and patient-specific soft robotic preclinical models of valvular heart disease, congenital defects, and heart failure with preserved ejection fraction. Luca leveraged these platforms for the testing and development of medical devices through several partnerships with industry. During his studies, he also worked as an R&D engineer in the Structural Heart division of Abbott Laboratories on the development of transcatheter aortic valve replacements (TAVR). He also gained clinical experience at the Veterans Affairs Medical Center in Boston and at Boston Children's Hospital. In the Skylar-Scott lab, Luca will be working on whole-heart bioprinting. -
Kevin Rose
Postdoctoral Scholar, Structural Biology
Current Research and Scholarly InterestsI am interested in studying organelle dysfunction and host cell responses at the highest resolution possible in natively preserved tissues. To do this, I couple correlative light and cryo-Electron Tomography (cryo-ET) and perform ultrastructural analysis of healthy and diseased organelles. This technique hopes to uncover new molecular details of pathophysiology so that we can improve our understanding of diseases such as cancer and neurodegeneration to improve the rationale therapeutic design.

Soumyadeep Roy
Postdoctoral Scholar, Biomedical Informatics
BioI am a postdoctoral scholar at the Center for Biomedical Informatics Research of Stanford University, advised by Prof. Tina Hernandez-Boussard.
My primary area of research is natural language processing, with expertise in medical and healthcare applications. My research areas of interest are Foundation Models for Medicine, Generative AI, Text Summarization, and Efficient Pretraining.
I hold a PhD in Computer Science and Engineering from the Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur, where I worked with Prof. Niloy Ganguly and Prof. Shamik Sural. Here, I was part of the Complex Networks Research Group (CNeRG). My PhD thesis is titled “Domain Adaptation for Medical Language Understanding”, where I developed novel domain adaptation techniques to effectively and efficiently adapt open-domain AI models to the medical domain.
In summary, I have six years of experience working with medical NLP data, which includes clinical trial registry data (2018-2021), medical forum questions (2020-2021), DNA sequence data (2021-2024), biomedical scientific literature (2023 - 2025), clinical data (2021-2023) and EHR clinical notes (2025). My medical AI research experience includes 2.5 years at L3S Research Germany collaborating with Hannover Medical School as well as a 7-month research internship at GE HealthCare Technology and Innovation Center (HTIC) in Bangalore, India. I also presented a tutorial on March 10, 2025 titled "Building Trustworthy AI Models for Medicine" at WSDM 2025 held in Germany.
In my free time, I like hiking, and playing chess or table tennis. -
Alejandra Ruiz
Postdoctoral Scholar, General Surgery
BioDr. Alejandra Ruiz is a physician-scientist working at the intersection of clinical medicine, health services research, and community-engaged intervention design. Based on her clinical experience in high-complexity settings, she works to optimize integrative care models that address both physical and mental health needs.
She is currently a postdoctoral researcher in the Departments of Emergency Medicine and General Surgery, where she examines structural barriers to care among underserved populations and develops pathways to improve access and care delivery. Her work is grounded in community-based participatory research, through which she designs, implements, and evaluates culturally responsive interventions. Dr. Ruiz is committed to advancing equitable, sustainable models of care that improve access, engagement, and patient outcomes.
