Yuva Karthik Krishnapillai B.S.
Affiliate, Multispecialty Anesthesiology
BioYuva Krishnapillai is a current research scholar affiliated with the Department of Anesthesiology, Perioperative and Pain Medicine at Stanford University. His focus of study revolves around perioperative neuroscience, EEG-defined brain states, and immediate and long-term cognitive change with the goal of improving cognitive and functional outcomes after surgery. Krishnapillai is involved in numerous prospective and retrospective research investigations examining perioperative outcomes and is involved in collaborative work with UC Riverside School of Medicine and UC San Francisco School of Medicine.

Christina Krist
Associate Professor of Education
BioDr. Krist's research examines how science learning environments can be structured to support students' epistemic agency, sense of belonging, and authority as knowers, with particular attention to students and communities who are systematically marginalized in STEM. This work spans three levels of design: classroom practice, course structure, and community partnership. Her projects include developing professional development models that support K-12 teachers in building community partnerships for justice-centered science teaching, supporting the structural redesign of introductory undergraduate STEM courses to strengthen students' epistemologies and sense of belonging, and collaborative work with families and local communities to drive educational transformation. Several current projects extend this agenda to new domains, including the use of generative AI to support teacher planning and the development of strengths-based approaches to understanding student engagement.
Dr. Krist received her PhD in Learning Sciences from Northwestern University in 2016 and was a postdoctoral scholar at the University of Maryland from 2016-2017. Her early career work has been supported by an NAEd/Spencer Postdoctoral Fellowship as well as grants from the National Science Foundation and the National Institutes of Health. She was recently recognized with NARST’s 2023 Early Career Research Award. -

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.

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.)
