    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.

    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.

    Current Research and Scholarly InterestsOur basic research program focuses on understanding the roles of virus-host interactions in viral infection and disease pathogenesis. This program is combined with translational efforts to apply this knowledge for the development of broad-spectrum host-centered antiviral approaches to combat emerging viral infections, including dengue, encephalitic alphaviruses, coronaviruses, and filoviruses, and means to predict disease progression.
