Stivi Canka
Masters Student in Management Science and Engineering, admitted Autumn 2026
BioI am a master's student in Management Science & Engineering, working on optimization and machine learning applied to the infrastructure that makes the world run, spanning manufacturing, logistics, and connectivity.
My background is in economics and mathematics, followed by work in market risk and in technology risk consulting. Across both, the recurring pattern was the same: most of the world is a set of large, poorly specified optimization problems, and comparatively few of them have been solved. At Stanford I am focused on the computational and statistical tools for attacking these problems at scale, with a particular interest in operations problems in emerging markets.
Outside my coursework, I founded Albanian Trailblazers, a mentorship network connecting Albanian students from disadvantaged backgrounds with mentors across more than twenty countries. -

Bryan James Cannon
Affiliate, Pathology Operations supported expenses #2
BioBryan J. Cannon is a graduate student at Stanford University, pursuing a PhD in Computational & Systems Immunology, with research focused on studying the cellular and acellular composition of human neurodegeneration using hi-dimensional imaging and sequencing datasets. He has experience in computational immunology, including multiplex ion beam imaging technology, image segmentation, and multi-dimensional analysis pipelines, as well as expertise in R, Matlab, and Python programming languages. Prior to Stanford, he worked as a Project Associate at NASA Ames Research Center and a Research Assistant at the Autoimmune & Rheumatology Lab, Bone Research Lab, and Cardiac Surgery Lab. Additionally, he has been involved in advocacy work, including mentoring high school students in summer research, working on a project for diversity and inclusion in immunology, giving lectures for the EXPLORE Lecture Series, and mentoring first-generation and low-income students at Stanford.

Nissa Ren Cannon
Lecturer, Program in Writing and Rhetoric
Current Research and Scholarly InterestsMy research focuses on transatlantic modernism, citizenship, and print culture. My book project, which was chosen for the 2019 Penn State First Book Institute, argues that the bureaucratic and literary documents of interwar itinerancy–including passports, travel ephemera, and newspapers–shape expatriation as a distinct mode of national belonging.

Brian Cantwell
Edward C. Wells Professor in the School of Engineering and Professor of Mechanical Engineering, Emeritus
BioProfessor Cantwell's research interests are in the area of turbulent flow. Recent work has centered in three areas: the direct numerical simulation of turbulent shear flows, theoretical studies of the fine-scale structure of turbulence, and experimental measurements of turbulent structure in flames. Experimental studies include the development of particle-tracking methods for measuring velocity fields in unsteady flames and variable density jets. Research in turbulence simulation includes the development of spectral methods for simulating vortex rings, the development of topological methods for interpreting complex fields of data, and simulations of high Reynolds number compressible and incompressible wakes. Theoretical studies include predictions of the asymptotic behavior of drifting vortex pairs and vortex rings and use of group theoretical methods to study the nonlinear dynamics of turbulent fine-scale motions. Current projects include studies of fast-burning fuels for hybrid propulsion and decomposition of nitrous oxide for space propulsion.

Erica Cao
Lecturer, Music
BioErica Cao received her PhD from the University of Cambridge Centre for Music and Science and is a resident psychiatrist at San Mateo County. She seeks to understand and address social determinants of behavioral health through development and characterization of arts-based strategies through qualitative, mixed-methods, and community-engaged approaches. As part of this work, she examines the impacts of a collaborative songwriting model she developed, Music Corps, on, for example, interpersonal measures of empathy, social connectedness, and community engagement across social service and clinical settings. Trained in psychology and ethnomusicology, she has conducted fieldwork and organized songwriting workshops with social service organizations in NYC. She continues this work in community mental health settings and with San Mateo County. She co-founded Humans in Harmony, a 501(c)(3) arts nonprofit which organizes collaborative arts projects with community members. Her interests are in community-engaged research, health services implementation, and health equity.
