Scott Owen - Assistant Professor of Neurosurgery
Bio-X Affiliated Faculty
Stanford Profile
Dr. Owen's Lab Homepage
Dr. Scott Owen's lab studies how neuromodulation can shape the activity of targeted cell types and circuits to guide behavior. Their goal is to understand how specialized physiology, connectivity, and cell-signaling support the diverse functions of individual neuronal cell types. How can a deeper understanding of these features guide future therapeutic interventions for neurological diseases including Autism, Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder, and Parkinson’s Disease?
Zhenan Bao - K. K. Lee Professor in the School of Engineering and Professor (by courtesy) of Materials Science & Engineering and Chemistry
Bio-X Affiliated Faculty
Stanford Profile
Dr. Bao's Lab Homepage
Research areas in the Bao Group include synthesis of functional organic and polymer materials, organic electronic device design and fabrication, and applications development for organic electronics.
Bianxiao Cui - Job and Gertrud Tamaki Professor of Chemistry
Bio-X Affiliated Faculty, Scientific Leadership Council Member
Stanford Profile
Dr. Cui's Lab Homepage
Dr. Cui's laboratory's inerests lie in understanding the signal propagation in neurons using quantitative tools developed by physical and chemical sciences.
Howard Y. Chang - Virginia and D. K. Ludwig Professor of Cancer Research and Professor of Genetics
Bio-X Affiliated Faculty
Stanford Profile
Dr. Chang's Lab Homepage
The Chang lab is focused on how the activities of hundreds or even thousands of genes (gene parties) are coordinated to achieve biological meaning.
Zachary M. Sellers - Assistant Professor of Pediatrics (Gastroenterology)
Bio-X Affiliated Faculty
Stanford Profile
Dr. Sellers's Lab Homepage
Dr. Zachary Sellers is a pediatric physician-scientist striving to advance cystic fibrosis clinical care and translational research. Clinically, Dr. Sellers is focused on gastrointestinal manifestations of cystic fibrosis, developing diagnostic and therapeutic modalities to improve the gastrointestinal and liver health of those with cystic fibrosis. He also specializes in the clinical management of pediatric pancreatitis and am involved with the international INSPPIRE consortium to study pediatric pancreatitis.
Sanjiv Narayan - Professor of Medicine (Cardiovascular Medicine)
Bio-X Affiliated Faculty
Stanford Profile
Dr. Narayan has built an independently funded “bedside-to-bench-to-bedside” translational research program focused on the mechanisms for human atrial fibrillation and life-threatening ventricular arrhythmias. This work led to the development of mapping techniques for fibrillation that use computational analysis in an attempt to circumvent the limitations of electrogram analysis by computationally reconstructing optical mapping.
C. Garrison Fathman - Professor of Medicine (Immunology & Rheumatology), Emeritus
Bio-X Affiliated Faculty
Stanford Profile
Dr. Fathman's Lab Homepage
Dr.Fathman's laboratory of molecular and cellular immunology is interested in mechanisms of T cell anergy and the pathophysiology and immunotherapy of preclinical animal models of autoimmune disease.

Elizabeth Hadly - Paul S. and Billie Achilles Professor in Environmental Biology
Bio-X Affiliated Faculty
Stanford Profile
Dr. Hadly's Lab Homepage
Dr. Hadly uses a combined field and laboratory approach to examine how ecological perturbations link or decouple levels of biological organization, because understanding the links among ecosystems, species, populations and genes is central to understanding how organisms exist, evolve and become extinct.
Kenneth Weinberg - Anne T. and Robert M. Bass Professor in Pediatric Cancer and Blood Diseases
Bio-X Affiliated Faculty
Stanford Profile
Dr. Kenneth Weinberg's laboratory's efforts are aimed at understanding the reciprocal interactions between immature T lymphocytes (“thymocytes”) and thymic epithelial cells, the stromal cells of the thymus which support T lymphocyte development. Such interactions are abnormal in both genetic diseases of children like severe combined immune deficiency (SCID) and the DiGeorge syndrome, and in aging and autoimmune diseases.
