Irene is a postdoc at LMU Klinikum München. She received her PhD from the Berlin School of Mind and Brain, investigating different processes of social understanding. She explores how we understand people who are different from ourselves, and how life experiences shape such understandings. In her phd she compared mothers and non-mothers in their understanding of children and other adults. Her current research focuses on cases where social understanding and interaction are atypical or impaired. These cases are often associated with two interactaction partners being less "in sync", and she tries to use this phenomenon to characterise interactions.

Marisol Jiménez is a composer, performer and multi-disciplinary artist from Guadalajara, Mexico, currently residing in Berlin. Her work expresses an intense fascination with the tactile process of creating sound, an interplay of the entropic within the structured musical machinery, colliding the primeval with the technological to seek forceful sensuous and visceral energies. Her output includes numerous chamber and electronic works, as well as sound and intermedia installations. Most of her acoustic, electronic and mixed media works involve self-made sound sculptures, found objects, and collected sound materials from her own field recordings, improvisations, and performances. She completed a Doctorate degree in composition at Stanford University, at the Center for Computer Research in Music and Acoustics (CCRMA) in 2011, and a Masters of Arts degree from Mills College, Oakland, CA (2005).

Julius Holtz holds a Master in Sound Studies and is the founder of the Berlin-based composition and sound design studio Sonic Fiction. His research questions arise from his practice as an artist and designer. Within the scope of emerging technologies and Virtual Reality environments, Julius evaluates the potential of connections between auditory and cognitive processing. The question of how we experience sound leads to investigations in sound quality. Like taste in music, the perception of sound is subjective. Sonic measurements describe the physical properties of the sound itself. They don't measure the cognitive and physical processes taking place in our bodies. Julius' research in sound perception utilizes artistic concepts as well as qualitative, scientific approaches and applied methods of corporate sound design.

Rumor has it that Larry arrived at Stanford in time to register for autumn quarter in 1958. He was fresh off the high school baseball team and still wet from a summer's surfing at the Rincon and related Santa Barbara, CA, wave places. An engineering design career was vaguely foreshadowed by early experiences with model airplanes, firebombs and his first surfing experiences with a balsa board, maybe 5 guys in the water. There had to be a better way, so he built his first foam and fiberglass board when there were 10 guys in the water. By the time he graduated from Stanford he was on his 4th board and a typical Rincon day (see also Steamer's Lane, Santa Cruz) would have upwards of 50 people in the water.
Things changed. Six months at Stanford in Florence transformed the beach guy into a nascent global academic entrepreneur. On completing his bioengineering (neuroscience) doctoral thesis at Stanford (private pilot license included (ask Bernie)), he worked for several years in Zurich Switzerland, discovering the country, Europe and the lovely wife who would come to share four children with him.
Open to interpretation, he may be the only guy on the Stanford d.school team who has already lived five or more d.school lives. With a first generation product design master degree, he subsequently taught in the program on returning to Stanford in 1976. His experience in bioengineering at Stanford, NASA, and ETH-Zurich is embodied in today's Medical Device Design program. Conceiving and implementing the Smart-Product-Design Program was a precursor to embedded systems and ubiquitous computing, as we know it today. His founding of the Stanford-VA Rehabilitation Engineering program is now embodied in the Biomechanics and Bioengineering programs. As it became increasingly clear that the "Renaissance-Man" of the 21st century would be a "Renaissance-Team," the Center for Design Research at Stanford was born to re-invent design-thinking at the team versus solo level. Academic credits include: 5+ patents; 20 something book chapters; 30 something hard core journal papers; 250 or so refereed proceedings papers; and 40+ successful Ph.D. advisees.
