    Tina Baykaner

    Assistant Professor of Medicine (Cardiovascular Medicine)

    BioTina Baykaner is an Assistant Professor in the Department of Internal Medicine, Division of Cardiovascular Medicine and Electrophysiology. Following internal medicine residency, cardiovascular medicine and advanced heart failure fellowship trainings at University of California, San Diego and electrophysiology fellowship at Stanford University, Dr. Baykaner joined Stanford University faculty in 2018. She has published over 200 papers, book chapters and abstracts including over 100 original peer-reviewed articles, and delivered over 100 invited presentations in national and international meetings. She serves as associate editor, section editor and editorial board member of four electrophysiology journals and served in guideline writing committees.

    Dr. Baykaner’s current research interests include outcomes research, epidemiology and mechanisms of rhythm disorders. She is currently funded by the National Institutes of Health to study patient related outcomes regarding atrial fibrillation (AF) ablation. She received prior research funding from American Heart Association and Heart Rhythm Society. Dr. Baykaner's clinical practice focuses on ablation of atrial and ventricular arrhythmias, SVTs, inappropriate sinus tachycardia management, device implantation and device extraction.

    Dr. Baykaner is an active member of American Heart Association (AHA), American College of Cardiology (ACC), Heart Rhythm Society (HRS) and European Society of Cardiology (ESC). She serves as an elected member of the Digital Health Committee for HRS, and previously served as an elected member of the HRS Communications Committee and ACC Task Force ICD research committee.

    Philip Beachy

    The Ernest and Amelia Gallo Professor, Professor of Urology, of Developmental Biology and, by courtesy, of Chemical and Systems Biology

    Current Research and Scholarly InterestsFunction of Hedgehog proteins and other extracellular signals in morphogenesis (pattern formation), in injury repair and regeneration (pattern maintenance). We study how the distribution of such signals is regulated in tissues, how cells perceive and respond to distinct concentrations of signals, and how such signaling pathways arose in evolution. We also study the normal roles of such signals in stem-cell physiology and their abnormal roles in the formation and expansion of cancer stem cells.

  • Sean Bendall

    Sean Bendall

    Associate Professor of Pathology

    Current Research and Scholarly InterestsOur goal is to understand the mechanisms regulating the development of human systems. Drawing on both pluripotent stem cell biology, hematopoiesis, and immunology, combined with novel high-content single-cell analysis (CyTOF – Mass Cytometry) and imagining (MIBI-Multiplexed Ion Beam Imaging) we are creating templates of ‘normal’ human cellular behavior to both discover novel regulatory events and cell populations as well as understand dysfunctional processes such as cancer.

  • Jade Benjamin-Chung

    Jade Benjamin-Chung

    Assistant Professor of Epidemiology and Population Health

    Current Research and Scholarly InterestsOur research aims to improve population health by creating high quality evidence about what health interventions work in whom and where, when, and how to implement them. Most of our research is focused on environmentally-mediated infectious diseases, including malaria, diarrhea, soil-transmitted helminths, and influenza. Our focus is on improving the health of vulnerable populations from low-resource settings, both domestically and internationally. We use a variety of epidemiologic, computational, and statistical methods, including causal inference and machine learning methods.

  • Christopher Bennett

    Christopher Bennett

    Assistant Professor of Emergency Medicine (Adult Clinical/Academic)

    BioI am a clinically active emergency physician and faculty scientist in the Department of Emergency Medicine at Stanford University; I am also a faculty affiliate with the Stanford Center for Artificial Intelligence in Medicine and Imaging (AIMI) and the Stanford Center for Digital Health (CDH). My background includes training at Duke, Harvard, and Stanford.

    As an NIH-funded principal investigator, my research group focuses on understanding and improving the quality of care Americans receive in our nation’s emergency departments, as well as identifying who is providing that care. I have particular interests in how policy can inform precision medicine and in developing innovations to optimize healthcare delivery.

    As a recognized leader in the healthcare, I’ve served on the Boards of the Society for Academic Emergency Medicine (SAEM) and the SAEM Foundation, and on the Massachusetts Medical Society's Committee on Publications, which oversees the New England Journal of Medicine.
