Balaji Prabhakar
VMware Founders Professor of Computer Science, Professor of Electrical Engineering and, by courtesy, of Operations, Information and Technology at the Graduate School of Business
BioPrabhakar's research focuses on the design, analysis, and implementation of data networks: both wireline and wireless. He has been interested in designing network algorithms, problems in ad hoc wireless networks, and designing incentive mechanisms. He has a long-standing interest in stochastic network theory, information theory, algorithms, and probability theory.

Dr. Sanjay Kumar Prabhakar
Affiliate, Stanford PULSE Institute
BioDr. Prabhakar is an Assistant Professor of Physics at Northwest Missouri State University and a Visiting Faculty member at the Stanford PULSE Institute. He has taught a variety of undergraduate physics courses at Northwest Missouri State University, including algebra-based physics, calculus-based physics, quantum mechanics, and classical physics.
Dr. Prabhakar is a theoretical physicist whose research focuses on applying ab initio methods, tight-binding models, and continuum modeling to investigate the properties of quantum materials for applications in solid-state quantum computing and materials science. His work combines density functional theory (Quantum ESPRESSO), finite element modeling (COMSOL Multiphysics), and computational tools such as MATLAB and Python to study the electronic structure and quantum properties of low-dimensional materials, quantum dots, and other condensed matter systems.

Manu Prakash
Associate Professor of Bioengineering, Senior Fellow at the Woods Institute for the Environment and Associate Professor, by courtesy, of Oceans
BioWe use interdisciplinary approaches including theory and experiments to understand how computation is embodied in biological matter. Examples include cognition in single cell protists and morphological computing in animals with no neurons and origins of complex behavior in multi-cellular systems. Broadly, we invent new tools for studying non-model organisms with significant focus on life in the ocean - addressing fundamental questions such as how do cells sense pressure or gravity? Finally, we are dedicated towards inventing and distributing “frugal science” tools to democratize access to science (previous inventions used worldwide: Foldscope, Abuzz), diagnostics of deadly diseases like malaria and convening global citizen science communities to tackle planetary scale environmental challenges such as mosquito surveillance or plankton surveillance by citizen sailors mapping the ocean in the age of Anthropocene.

Carsten Prasse
Visiting Associate Professor, Civil and Environmental Engineering
BioMy research is focusing on the occurrence and fate of anthropogenic organic contaminants in the environment and the assessment of their environmental and human impacts. My research group is using analytical tools such as high-resolution mass spectrometry to identify previously unknown organic contaminants in different environmental matrices (drinking water, wastewater, river water, biosolids, soils, vegetables) and biospecimen (human blood and hurine). We are also developing new tools that can help prioritizing chemicals of highest concern in complex environmental mixtures.
