Catherine Gorle
Associate Professor of Civil and Environmental Engineering and, by courtesy, of Mechanical Engineering
Current Research and Scholarly InterestsGorle's research focuses on the development of predictive flow simulations to support the design of sustainable buildings and cities. Specific topics of interest are the coupling of large- and small-scale models and experiments to quantify uncertainties related to the variability of boundary conditions, the development of uncertainty quantification methods for low-fidelity models using high-fidelity data, and the use of field measurements to validate and improve computational predictions.

Robert M Gray
Alcatel-Lucent Professor in Communications and Networking, Emeritus
Current Research and Scholarly InterestsMy current research falls in the intersection of Shannon information theory and signal processing. In particular, I am interested in the theory and design of block codes and sliding-block (or stationary or time-invariant) codes for data compression and their relation to each other. Block codes are far better understood and more widely used, but their lack of stationarity causes difficulties in theory and artifacts in practice. Very little is known about the design of good sliding-block codes, but the problem is known to be equivalent to the design of entropy-constrained simulators of complex random processes. I also do research in the history of information theory and signal processing, especially in the development of speech processing systems and real time signal processing.

Christopher Gregg
Associate Professor (Teaching) of Computer Science
BioChris Gregg received his Ph.D. in Computer Engineering from the University of Virginia in 2012, has a Master's of Education from Harvard University (2002), and a BS in Electrical Engineering from Johns Hopkins University (1994). Prior to becoming a lecturer at Stanford, Chris was a lecturer in the computer science department at Tufts University, and prior to that he taught high school physics in Massachusetts and California for seven years. Chris was on active duty in the Navy for seven years, and remains as a Commander in the Navy Reserves in the Information Warfare / Cryptology community.
Chris's research interests include computer architecture (specifically, general purpose computing on GPUs) and the pedagogy of computer science teaching and instruction. -
Julie Greicius
Associate Dean for Communications and Alumni Affairs, School of Engineering - External Relations
BioJulie Greicius is Associate Dean of Communications and Alumni Affairs for Stanford Engineering. She joined the school in early 2023 and leads strategic communications, media relations, alumni engagement, and productions including the school's podcast, The Future of Everything. She led communications and events for Stanford Engineering's centennial in 2025, a multiyear effort culminating in a yearlong celebration, including production of the school's first history book, videos, website, social media, a showcase and celebration on the school's birthday attended by more than 3,000 members of the community, and speaker events featuring alumni Jensen Huang and Sergey Brin. The full body of award-winning work is at engineering100.stanford.edu.
Her career with Stanford began in 2006, when she joined Stanford Children's Health as a freelance writer, eventually becoming editorial director, overseeing brand voice, messaging, and digital platforms through a major rebrand. She joined Stanford Medicine in 2018 as a media relations manager and went on to serve as Senior Director of External Communications, leading media relations, crisis communications, and issue management through the COVID-19 pandemic. She has contributed regularly to Stanford Medicine magazine and other university publications. She holds an MFA in creative nonfiction from Columbia University. -
Peter Griffin
Sr Research Engineer, Electrical Engineering
BioPeter Griffin is an expert in microfabrication, having co-authored one of the most widely used textbooks in the area. A new version titled “Integrated Circuit Fabrication – Science and Technology” co-authored with Prof. Jim Plummer will be published in early 2024 by Cambridge University press (https://plummergriffinbook.stanford.edu/). He is an electrical engineer by training with a BE and ME from University College Cork, Ireland and a PhD from Stanford University. He remained at Stanford as a research scientist. For the past two decades, he has performed interdisciplinary work at the Stanford Genome Technology Center (SGTC) with a particular emphasis on digital microfluidics. He is particularly interested in how technology can contribute to bioengineering and was the lead author on major DARPA, NIH and SRC grants in various application areas. Griffin has enjoyed long term collaborations with leading researchers on those interdisciplinary grants which has made his time at Stanford very productive. Griffin’s current interest is on impedance measurements for diagnostics in the laboratory of Prof. Lars Steinmetz at SGTC.
