Shraman Kar
Undergraduate, Computer Science
BioShraman is passionate about building technology projects using artificial intelligence and state-of-the-art large language models to solve problems of the community and the environment. Shraman's passion project, Foodle (www.thefoodle.org) built on technology and artificial intelligence could make a difference in solving hunger and food waste at the same time. He wanted to share his knowledge and ideas with as many youths as possible so that together they can build technology products for the communities.
To unleash the potential of AI for social good Shraman cofounded a 501(c)(3) organization Community AI (www.thecommunityai.org) in the year 2000. They created a customized course of Machine Learning suitable for a wide range of school-going youth and delivered via free camps. The camps became very popular and they could mentor students from 58 countries and all 50 US states. The members have several projects to help the community and the environment- ranging from automatic trash segregation to detecting wildfire before it happens and many more. To encourage more students to build AI-driven projects we provided funds/prizes via the AI Fair called Sustainability and Community AI Fair (www.communityaifair.com). -
Shreyas Kar
Masters Student in Computer Science, admitted Autumn 2023
BioShreyas is an undergraduate Computer Science and Math (double major) student and a researcher at Stanford Partnership in AI-Assisted Care (PAC - https://www.med.stanford.edu/pacresearch.html) group, as part of Stanford Vision and Learning (SVL) lab under Professor Fei-Fei Li and Professor Ehsan Adeli.

Spyros Karadimas, MD, PhD
Assistant Professor of Neurosurgery
BioDr. Spyridon Karadimas is a board-certified, fellowship-trained cerebrovascular neurosurgeon and physician-scientist with Stanford Health Care. He is also an assistant professor in the Department of Neurosurgery at Stanford University School of Medicine.
Dr. Karadimas offers advanced, personalized treatment for complex vascular disorders of the brain, neck, and spine in both adults and children. His expertise spans brain aneurysms, arteriovenous malformations, cavernous malformations, arteriovenous fistulas, Moyamoya disease, stroke, and carotid artery disease. Dr. Karadimas is a rare combination of surgeon, scientist, and innovator dedicated to advancing patient care and shaping the future of cerebrovascular neurosurgery.
Dr. Karadimas directs a basic and translational research program focused on the neural circuits of motor control and stroke recovery. His laboratory integrates systems neuroscience, in vivo imaging, electrophysiology, and brain-computer interface development to uncover the principles of neuroplasticity, or how the brain adapts to change. This knowledge allows him to create new ways to help people move again after a brain injury.
Dr. Karadimas has published his research as first author in peer-reviewed journals such as Nature, Nature Neuroscience and Science Translational Medicine. His work has received editorial highlight at Nature Reviews Neuroscience. He has presented to his peers at international, national, and regional meetings, including those of the American Academy of Neurological Surgery, American Association of Neurological Surgeons (AANS), European Association of Neurosurgical Societies, and World Federation of Skull Base Societies.
Dr. Karadimas is a fellow of the Royal College of Surgeons of Canada and American Association of Neurological Surgeons as well as member of the Congress of Neurological Surgeons, and the North American Skull Base Society. -
