Ken Lopez received his B.S. in Mechanical Engineering from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology in 2012 with undergraduate thesis in Superhydrophobic Microstructured Surfaces for the Enhancement of Condensation and is currently pursuing his M.S. and Ph.D at Stanford University. His research interest are in the application of micro-nano patterned surfaces for boiling and condensation heat transfer and microfluidic cooling. Currently he is working on the characterization of porous membranes for implementation on a microfluidic cooling system for high energy density dissipation. He is the recipient of the Stanford School of Engineering Fellowship and the Gates Millennium Scholarship.
