Michael Graziano is a scientist, author, and ventriloquist, who has studied the brain for over thirty years. His TEDxCornellUniversity talk focuses on how a collection of neurons might perceive subjective consciousness in itself and other agents, how consciousness is a part of our social selves, and how we might build conscious machines in the future.

Dr. Peck is an Associate Professor in Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering at Cornell University and the Director of Cornell's Space Systems Design Studio. His research interests include space-systems architecture and satellite dynamics and control. From late 2011 through early 2014 he served as NASA's Chief Technologist in Washington, DC. In that role, he acted as the agency's chief strategist for technology investment and prioritization and advocate for innovation in aeronautics and space technology. His lab focuses on fundamental research in space technology that can be advanced through flight experiments. Examples include water-propelled lunar spacecraft, magnetically docked CubeSats, and Kicksat, a crowd-funded technology demonstrator for satellites-on-a-chip. His lab has flown on average one spaceflight experiment a year since 2011 and plans to launch three more spacecraft by 2019.

Andrew Rosenblatt is a third-year undergraduate studying biological sciences and public policy at Cornell University. Before coming to Cornell, Andrew researched novel methods for early cancer detection by identifying a cancer cell’s unique metabolic signature using fluorescent microscopy in the lab of Enrico Gratton and Michelle Digman at the University of California, Irvine. In college, Andrew has continued to pursue scientific inquiry in the lab of Tobias Dörr, studying new ways to overcome antibiotic resistance in cholera. His TEDxCornell talk centers on the rise of drug-resistant bacteria and the future of medicine.

Prior to Cornell, Chandler deferred his enrollment for 2 years to do volunteer service as a full-time missionary. When he arrived on Cornell's campus, he had already developed a strong passion for service that resonated with the hotel school culture. After completing his freshman year, he traveled independently to Jordan to engage in humanitarian efforts with Syrian refugees. He spent weeks living with locals and working in a camp on the Syrian border. Since returning to campus, he has taken with him the lessons learned from those experiences and applied them to his life at Cornell. Chandler still tries to give back in meaningful ways to those around him. Prior to Cornell, Chandler deferred his enrollment for 2 years to do volunteer service as a full-time missionary.
