Rani Kronenberger
Postdoctoral Scholar, Bioengineering
BioRani is a Belgian MD, PhD candidate, former surgery resident, and Stanford Biodesign Fellow.
She graduated magna cum laude from VUB, where she joined Brugada’s heart lab to study complications in arrhythmia ablation and investigate prevention strategies. She has co-authored over 20 peer-reviewed publications, first-authored two novel surgical techniques, and presented her work internationally. Her PhD research focuses on finding eligible 3D printing materials for patient-tailored epicardial guides in hybrid arrhythmia ablation. She has completed the Venture Advancement Program at MIT, and earned a Laboratory Animal Science Certification from KU Leuven. She is currently an Innovation Fellow at Stanford Biodesign, focused on need-driven healthcare innovation. -
Ilan Kroo
Thomas V. Jones Professor in the School of Engineering
BioProfessor Kroo's research involves work in three general areas: multidisciplinary optimization and aircraft synthesis, unconventional aircraft, and low-speed aerodynamics. Current research in the field of aircraft synthesis, sponsored by NASA and industry, includes the development of a new computational architecture for aircraft design, and its integration with numerical optimization. Studies of unconventional configurations employ rapid turnaround analysis methods in the design of efficient subsonic and supersonic commercial aircraft. Recent research has included investigation of configurations such as joined wings, oblique wings, and tailless aircraft. Nonlinear low-speed aerodynamics studies have focused on vortex wake roll-up, refined computation of induced drag, the design of wing tips, and the aerodynamics of maneuvering aircraft.

Jon Krosnick
Frederic O. Glover Professor of Humanities and Social Sciences, Professor of Communication and of Political Science, of Environmental Social Sciences and, by courtesy, of Psychology
BioJon Krosnick is a social psychologist who does research on attitude formation, change, and effects, on the psychology of political behavior, and on survey research methods. He is the Frederic O. Glover Professor in Humanities and Social Sciences, Professor of Communication, Political Science, Environmental Social Sciences, and (by courtesy) Psychology. He directs Stanford's Political Psychology Research Group and has directed the Summer Institute in Political Psychology.
To read reports on Professor Krosnick’s research program exploring public opinion on the environment, visit the American Public Opinion on Climate Change web site (https://climatepublicopinion.stanford.edu/).
Research Interests
Author of seven published books and two forthcoming books and more than 190 articles and chapters, Dr. Krosnick conducts research in three primary areas: (1) attitude formation, change, and effects, (2) the psychology of political behavior, and (3) the optimal design of questionnaires used for laboratory experiments and surveys, and survey research methodology more generally.
His attitude research has focused primarily on the notion of attitude strength, seeking to differentiate attitudes that are firmly crystallized and powerfully influential of thinking and action from attitudes that are flexible and inconsequential. Many of his studies in this area have focused on the amount of personal importance that an individual chooses to attach to an attitude. Dr. Krosnick’s studies have illuminated the origins of attitude importance (e.g., material self-interest and values) and the cognitive and behavioral consequences of importance in regulating attitude impact and attitude change processes.
Honors
Winner of the American Association for Public Opinion Research’s Lifetime Achievement Award for outstanding research, and the Nevitt Sanford Award from the International Society of Political Psychology, Dr. Krosnick’s scholarship has been recognized by election as a fellow by the American Academy of Arts and Sciences and by the American Association for the Advancement of Science, the Erik Erikson Award for Excellence and Creativity in the Field of Political Psychology from the International Society of Political Psychology, two fellowships at the Center for Advanced Study in the Behavioral Sciences, the Phillip Brickman Memorial Prize for Research in Social Psychology, and the American Political Science Association’s Best Paper Award. -
Sharon Krossa
Affiliate, Geballe Laboratory for Advanced Materials
BioSharon blames (in chronological order) her parents, CS Lewis, Brother Alfred, Clan Colin & the original Renaissance Pleasure Faire North, HyperCard, Grant G. Simpson, Stanford, her therapist, Drupal, and her husband for where she is now. Note that her bio, honors and awards, and publications are bogus. (Well, the bio is real, but the rest are purely for testing purposes. It's her job, honest.)

Laura Krueger
Librarian 2, David Rumsey Map Center
BioAs the David Rumsey Map Center's Cartographic Metadata Librarian, I manage and catalog all cartographic materials at the center. Additionally, I provide reference assistance and help with the curation of exhibits (both physical and online). A student of English and religious studies by training, I am interested in making the cultural history, influence, and narratives surrounding the cartographic materials to come alive through description.
