Susan Ziolkowski, MD
Clinical Assistant Professor, Medicine - Nephrology
BioDr. Ziolkowski is a board-certified nephrologist and Clinical Assistant Professor in the Division of Nephrology at Stanford University School of Medicine, where she is a founding contributor to Stanford’s Onco-Nephrology program. She is a pioneering investigator who leads an independent, multidisciplinary research program at the intersection of onco-nephrology, medical imaging, and artificial intelligence, focused on redefining how kidney disease is detected, characterized, and managed in patients with cancer.
Her research integrates large-scale clinical data, advanced imaging, and machine learning to develop novel predictive models and uncover mechanisms of kidney injury in complex populations, including patients with cancer and stem cell transplantation. Through this work, she is establishing a new research paradigm that leverages imaging and AI to move beyond traditional biomarkers and enable earlier detection, improved risk stratification, and more precise, individualized care. Her program is designed to support the development of innovative, externally funded research aimed at transforming kidney outcomes in high-risk populations.
Clinically, Dr. Ziolkowski cares for patients at Stanford Health Care kidney clinics in Palo Alto and Emeryville, where she specializes in the management of kidney disease in patients with cancer. Her approach emphasizes precision medicine and individualized care strategies to optimize long-term outcomes and quality of life.
Dr. Ziolkowski has authored peer-reviewed publications in leading journals, including the American Journal of Kidney Diseases, Journal of Renal Nutrition, and Peritoneal Dialysis International, and presents her work nationally at meetings such as the American Society of Nephrology. Through her leadership in research, clinical care, and education, she is advancing the field of onco-nephrology and shaping the future of data-driven kidney care.
