Matthew L. Edwards
Clinical Assistant Professor, Psychiatry and Behavioral Sciences
BioMatthew Edwards is a clinical assistant professor in the Department of Psychiatry and Behavioral Sciences at Stanford University School of Medicine. In this role, Matthew also serves as the assistant director of residency training for the general adult psychiatry residency program. His clinical interests are in community and forensic psychiatry and his research interests lie at the intersection of medical history, ethics, and public policy.
Dr. Edwards graduated from Princeton University in 2010 with a degree in Sociology, magna cum laude, and received a graduate certificate in public health from the University of Texas School of Public Health in 2012. He received his MD, summa cum laude, with honors in research from the University of Texas Medical Branch School of Medicine in 2017. He completed his residency training in adult psychiatry at Stanford University School of Medicine in 2021 and his fellowship in forensic psychiatry at Emory University School of Medicine in 2022. He was a Pearce Fellow in the History of Medicine at the Clendening Library of the University of Kansas Medical Center in 2015.
His clinical interests are in community psychiatry and forensic psychiatry. At Stanford, Dr. Edwards treats patients in the division of adult psychiatry and the centerspace clinic. This recovery-oriented clinic provides culturally-contextualized and trauma-informed care for people with marginalized, multiple, and intersecting identities. He teaches the history of psychiatry to general psychiatry residents and forensic psychiatry fellows. Dr. Edwards regularly speaks about race, trauma, structural inequality, and the history of medicine at conferences and invited lectures. -

Current Research and Scholarly InterestsMalaria is a parasitic disease transmitted by mosquitos that is a leading cause of childhood mortality globally. Public health efforts to control malaria have historically been hampered by the rapid development of drug resistance. The goal of our research is to understand the molecular determinants of critical host-pathogen interactions in malaria, with a focus on the erythrocyte host cell. Our long-term goal is to develop novel approaches to prevent or treat malaria and improve child health.

Goar Egoryan
Clinical Assistant Professor, Medicine
BioI am a Clinical Assistant Professor and oncology hospitalist in the Division of Hospital Medicine at Stanford University School of Medicine. I care for patients with solid tumors admitted with complex, high-acuity conditions, including cancer-related complications, treatment toxicities, infections, malnutrition, and end-of-life care, making complex clinical decisions and navigating high-stakes situations with patients and families, often integrating input from multiple consulting teams.
I received my Doctor of Medicine degree summa cum laude from Novosibirsk State Medical University and completed a two-year rheumatology fellowship in Russia, a specialty defined by multiorgan complexity and the search for systemic connections. I later moved to the United States, where I completed an internal medicine residency at Ascension Saint Francis Hospital in Evanston, IL. During residency, I was named Intern of the Year, received the Great Catch Award for identifying and correcting a patient care error, served as Chief Resident in my third year, and contributed to over 20 publications, half as first author.
My early training in rheumatology, a field centered on systemic disease and pattern recognition, continues to shape how I approach complex illness and informs my interest in integrative medicine. In my current practice, I already incorporate elements of integrative medicine by considering lifestyle, behavioral, and psychosocial factors alongside medical management when caring for complex patients. My current academic interest centers on bringing evidence-based integrative medicine into the inpatient oncology setting. I was recently awarded a Stanford SMART-HM grant to pursue formal training in integrative medicine and to develop a care model that addresses the needs of hospitalized oncology patients beyond disease-directed treatment, including symptom burden and psychological distress. My long-term aim is to expand this approach to broader hospitalized populations while improving patient experience and clinical outcomes.
