Grace Xiong, MD
Assistant Professor of Orthopaedic Surgery
BioDr. Xiong is a fellowship-trained orthopaedic surgeon at Stanford Health Care Orthopaedic Spine Center. She is also an Assistant Professor in the Department of Orthopaedic Surgery at Stanford University School of Medicine.
Dr. Xiong specializes in spine surgery. She treats conditions including disorders of the cervical, thoracic, and lumbar spine. These include spinal stenosis, myelopathy, herniated discs, spinal trauma, spinal tumors, and revision spine surgery. She aims to work with patients to understand their lifestyle and concerns and then offer a personalized treatment plan. Dr. Xiong specializes in both traditional open and minimally invasive approaches to help restore patient quality of life and mobility.
Dr. Xiong completed medical school at Stanford School of Medicine, her residency training at the Harvard Combined Orthopaedic Residency Program in Boston, MA, and spine surgery fellowship training at the Rothman Orthopaedic Institute in Philadelphia, PA.
Dr. Xiong’s research interests include reducing disparities in access to spinal care and investigating healthcare delivery to promote health equity. She also studies infection prevention in patients who have undergone spinal surgery and the treatment of patients who develop spontaneous spinal infections.
Dr. Xiong has published in many peer-reviewed journals, including The Spine Journal, Spine, The American Journal of Sports Medicine, and Clinical Orthopaedics and Related Research. She has written several book chapters on orthopaedic subjects and has presented research at conferences and meetings around the country, as well as in Canada and China.
Dr. Xiong is a member of the American Academy of Orthopaedic Surgeons, American Orthopaedic Association, and the North American Spine Society. -
Daniel Yamins
Associate Professor of Psychology and of Computer Science
Current Research and Scholarly InterestsOur lab's research lies at intersection of neuroscience, artificial intelligence, psychology and large-scale data analysis. It is founded on two mutually reinforcing hypotheses:
H1. By studying how the brain solves computational challenges, we can learn to build better artificial intelligence algorithms.
H2. Through improving artificial intelligence algorithms, we'll discover better models of how the brain works.
We investigate these hypotheses using techniques from computational modeling and artificial intelligence, high-throughput neurophysiology, functional brain imaging, behavioral psychophysics, and large-scale data analysis. -
Fan Yang
Associate Professor of Orthopaedic Surgery and of Bioengineering
Current Research and Scholarly InterestsOur lab’s mission is to develop therapies for regenerating human tissues lost due to diseases or aging, and to build tissue engineered 3D models for understanding disease progression and informing drug discovery. We invent biomaterials and engineering tools to elucidate and modulate biology, and also use biology to inform materials and engineering design. Our work is highly interdisciplinary, and is driven by unmet clinical needs or key gaps in biology.

Phillip C. Yang, MD
Professor of Medicine (Cardiovascular Medicine)
Current Research and Scholarly InterestsDr. Yang is a physician-scientist whose research interest focuses on clinical translation of the fundamental molecular and cellular processes of myocardial restoration. His research employs novel in vivo multi-modality molecular and cellular imaging technology to translate the basic innovation in cardiovascular pluripotent stem cell biologics. Dr. Yang is currently a PI on the NIH/NHLBI funded CCTRN UM1 grant, which is designed to conduct multi-center clinical trial on novel biological therapy.

Samuel Yang, MD, FACEP
Professor of Emergency Medicine (Adult Clinical/Academic)
Current Research and Scholarly InterestsDr. Yang's research is focused on bridging the translational gap at the interface of molecular biology, biochemistry, genome science, engineering, and acute care medicine. The investigative interest of the Yang lab falls within the general theme of developing integrative systems-level approaches for precision diagnostics, as well as data driven knowledge discoveries, to improve the health outcome and our understanding of complex critical illnesses. Using acute infectious disease models with complex host-pathogen dynamics, the goals of the Yang lab are divided into 3 areas:
1) Developing high-content, near-patient, diagnostic systems for rapid, unbiased pathogen detection and characterization to personalize treatment options and duration.
2) Integrating multi-omics molecular and phenotypic data layers with novel computational approaches into advanced diagnostics and predictive analytics for acute infections.
3) Understanding the biological roles of the noncanonical structures of extracellular nucleic acids in the contexts of neutrophil extracellular traps and biofilms. -
Yanmin Yang

Yunzhi Peter Yang
Professor of Orthopaedic Surgery and, by courtesy, of Materials Science and Engineering and of Bioengineering
Current Research and Scholarly InterestsYang lab's research interests are in the areas of bio-inspired biomaterials, medical devices, and 3D printing approaches for re-creating a suitable microenvironment for cell growth and tissue regeneration for musculoskeletal disease diagnosis and treatment, including multiple tissue healing such as rotator cuff injury, orthopedic diseases such as osteoporosis and osteonecrosis, and orthopedic traumas such as massive bone and muscle injuries.

Jiangbin Ye
Assistant Professor of Radiation Oncology
On Leave from 01/01/2025 To 06/30/2025Current Research and Scholarly InterestsOne hallmark of cancer is that malignant cells modulate metabolic pathways to promote cancer progression. My professional interest is to investigate the causes and consequences of the abnormal metabolic phenotypes of cancer cells in response to microenvironmental stresses such as hypoxia and nutrient deprivation, with the prospect that therapeutic approaches might be developed to target these metabolic pathways to improve cancer treatment.
