About me
Welcome! My name is Ryosuke Mashiko.
I am a Ph.D. student in Electrical Engineering at Stanford University, where I'm working with Prof. Olav Solgaard and Prof. David Miller. My research spans integrated photonics, optical interconnects, optical computing, and sensing.
Before I entered Stanford EE's Ph.D. program in 2025, I earned an M.S. (2024) and a B.S. (2022) in Engineering from the University of Tokyo under Prof. Ryoichi Horisaki and Prof. Makoto Naruse.
Along with my academic journey, I'm also known as an origami artist. Please visit the Origami section for my works and stories in origami art.
