Kwabena Boahen

Professor of Bioengineering, of Electrical Engineering and, by courtesy, of Computer Science
Boahen founded and directs Stanford’s Brains in Silicon lab, which develops silicon integrated circuits that emulate the way neurons compute and computational models that link neuronal biophysics to cognitive behavior. This interdisciplinary research bridges neurobiology and medicine with electronics and computer science, bringing together these seemingly disparate fields.
