Hannah Field
Hannah graduated from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology with a double major in Physics and Electrical Engineering & Computer Science. She received her Master of Engineering from MIT, where she designed power electronic systems for wireless neuromodulation and investigated the use of magnetothermal modulation to stimulate nerve growth. Hannah is currently pursuing her PhD in Bioengineering as a Stanford Interdisciplinary Graduate Fellow, focusing on closed-loop neuromodulation of the central and peripheral nervous systems.
Syamantak Payra
Syamantak (he/him) is a PhD student in Electrical Engineering in Professor Todd Coleman's group. As an undergraduate at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, he majored in Electrical Engineering and Computer Science with minors in both Public Policy and Entrepreneurship & Innovation.
Kenji Marshall
Kenji (he/him) graduated from McGill University in 2022 with a B. Eng. in Bioengineering. He is now working with Professor Paul Nuyujukian to earn a PhD from Stanford's Department of Bioengineering. He's interested in using experimental neuroscience to model the basic ways networks of neurons can control movement and make decisions. He has a long term interest in the marriage between neurotechnology and mental health. He also really enjoys creative writing, playing piano, and watching nature documentaries!
Alisa Hathaway
Alisa (she/her/hers) graduated from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology with a BS in Computation and Cognition, and a minor in Mechanical Engineering. Alisa plans to pursue her PhD in Electrical Engineering in Professor Todd Coleman’s lab, focusing on neurotechnology research and device development within the gut-brain axis. She hopes to design and test devices, with implications to understand and move towards the tracking and treatment of neurological disorders. In her spare time, Alisa enjoys hiking, playing piano, and reading.
Alice Tor
Alice (she/her/hers) graduated from UC San Diego with a BS in Bioengineering: BioSystems and a minor in Literatures of the World. She is currently pursuing her PhD in Dr. Paul Nuyujukian's Brain Interfacing Lab. Her research interests broadly include motor learning, stroke recovery, and understanding neural dynamics to improve brain-computer interfaces.
