Dr. Fuller's Lab Homepage
A central focus of Dr. Fuller's work concerns the mechanisms that regulate stem cell behavior.
Sheri Spunt - Endowed Professor of Pediatric Cancer
Bio-X Affiliated Faculty
Stanford Profile
Dr. Sheri Spunt's research focuses primarily on the management of children, adolescents, and young adults with soft tissue sarcomas. Dr. Spunt also has an interest in developmental therapeutics and late effects of cancer therapy.
Laramie Duncan - Assistant Professor of Psychiatry & Behavioral Sciences
Bio-X Affiliated Faculty
Stanford Profile
Integrative Mental Health Laboratory Homepage
Dr. Duncan's group studies genetic and environmental effects on mental health: much of their work is computational and relies upon genetic data collected from millions of individuals.
Serena Sanulli - Assistant Professor of Genetics
Bio-X Affiliated Faculty
Stanford Profile
Dr. Sanulli's Lab Homepage
Dr. Serena Sanulli's lab studies the organizing principles of the genome and how these principles regulate cell identity and developmental switches. They combine Biochemistry and Biophysical methods such as NMR and Hydrogen-Deuterium Exchange-MS with Cell Biology, and Genetics to explore genome organization across length and time scales and understand how cells leverage the diverse biophysical properties of chromatin to regulate genome function.
Natalia Gomez-Ospina - Assistant Professor of Pediatrics (Genetics and Stem Cell Transplantation)
Bio-X Affiliated Faculty
Stanford Profile
Dr. Gomez-Ospina's Lab Homepage
Dr. Gomez-Ospina is a physician scientist and medical geneticist with a strong interest in the diagnosis and management of genetic diseases.
Wendy Fantl - Assistant Professor (Research) of Urology
Bio-X Affiliated Faculty
CAP Profile
Dr. Fantl is a cancer biologist with expertise in signal transduction and its application to understanding disease mechanism. Her current interests are to apply the recently described mass cytometry platform to identify disease-causing cell subpopulations and their signaling networks with a translational end-point as the ultimate goal.
Livnat Jerby - Assistant Professor of Genetics
Bio-X Affiliated Faculty
Stanford Profile
Dr. Jerby's Lab Homepage
Dr. Livnat Jerby's research focuses on multicellular dynamics, as a disease driver and therapeutic avenue, particularly in the context of cancer immunology. In her work, she aims to identify the drivers, molecular underpinnings, and causal structure of multifactorial immune evasion mechanisms, and use this information to identify new and more effective ways to augment and unleash targeted immunity via combinatorial interventions.
Mark A. Skylar-Scott - Assistant Professor of Bioengineering
Bio-X Affiliated Faculty
Stanford Profile
Dr. Skylar-Scott's Lab Homepage
A viable organ engineering pipeline requires the mass production of hundreds of billions of cells, tailorable and programmable cellular composition, and technologies to assemble these cells with perfusable vascular networks to support cell viability. Dr. Mark Skylar-Scott's lab is developing integrative technologies, including wetware, hardware, and software, to address cardiac tissue engineering at whole-organ scale.
