Gordon Wetzstein is an Associate Professor of Electrical Engineering and, by courtesy, Computer Science at Stanford University. He leads the Stanford Computational Imaging Lab and co-directs the Stanford Center for Image Systems Engineering (SCIEN). His research focuses on computational imaging, wearable computing, and neural rendering, blending computer graphics, vision, AI, and optics. Education: Ph.D., Computer Science, University of British Columbia (2011) Diploma, Media Systems Science, Bauhaus University (2006) Research Interests: His work spans computational displays , holography , non-line-of-sight imaging , and AI-driven optical systems . Key projects include Autofocals (gaze-contingent eyeglasses) and neural holography systems. He explores applications in AR/VR, medical imaging, and scientific visualization. Publications: Recent work includes advances in 3D holography, gaze-tracking systems, and AI-optics integration. His papers address challenges in display efficiency, light-field processing, and real-time imaging. Awards: Fellow of Optica NSF CAREER Award (2016) PECASE (2019) ACM SIGGRAPH Significant New Researcher Award (2018) Advising & Grants: He advises over 20 doctoral and postdoctoral students. His lab collaborates with industry (e.g., Raxium, Google) and has secured grants from NSF, DARPA, and private foundations. Labs & Teams: His lab develops cutting-edge systems like neural holography and non-line-of-sight imaging. The SCIEN center fosters interdisciplinary image systems research.
