Rongting Huang
Postdoctoral Scholar, Pathology
BioDr. Huang is a computational biologist with academic interests in cancer genomics and spatial biology, particularly in the field of gynecologic cancers. During her Ph.D. under the mentorship of Dr. Yuanhua Huang, she developed statistical methods to detect allele-specific somatic copy number variations from single-cell and spatial transcriptomic data, aiming to understand genetic diversity in biological systems. Currently, her research focuses on advancing gynecologic cancer studies and women’s health through spatial technology platforms, computational modeling, and innovative data visualizations to uncover meaningful insights.
Outside of research, she enjoys hiking, rock climbing, and calligraphy, which help her stay creative and balanced. -

Noor A. Hussein
Postdoctoral Scholar, Medicine
Current Research and Scholarly InterestsMy current work aims to increase the understanding of pediatric acute onset neuropsychiatric disorder (PANS) disease mechanism and to improve the treatment options. It focuses on studying the alteration of regulatory T cells (Tregs), which are key inhibitors of autoimmunity and main regulator of inflammation, in PANS.

Duc Tan Huynh
Postdoctoral Scholar, Neurosurgery
BioAs a cell biologist interested in neuroscience, I am fascinated about the molecular basis of nervous system disorders that reveal therapeutic targets and/or biomarkers. My long-term research goal is to identify strategies that revert dysregulation in aging or neurodegeneration. For my postdoctoral training in the Zuchero lab (Neurosurgery), I will investigate how myelination, an essential developmental process, contributes to intelligence and neurodegeneration at the biochemical, cellular, and physiological level. I received my BSc at UCLA and my PhD at Duke University.

Research interest: precision medicine in cardiovascular disease. Genomics, Exposomics. -
Amy M Inkster
Postdoctoral Scholar, Epidemiology
BioAmy Inkster, PhD is a Postdoctoral Scholar in the Department of Epidemiology and Population Health at Stanford University. She conducts research on epigenetic alterations in pregnancy and early life to understand the molecular levers affecting healthy development. She primarily uses large 'omics datasets to study the effect of environmental exposures on pregnancy outcomes and maternal health.
Dr. Inkster received her PhD in Medical Genetics from the University of British Columbia (Vancouver, Canada), where her research focused on evaluating DNA methylation variation in prenatal life, primarily in the context of placental epigenetics, sex differences, prenatal exposures, and X-chromosome inactivation. She holds a BSc in Chemistry. As a cross-disciplinary researcher, her work and research interests lie at the intersection of molecular mechanisms and their impacts on human health and disease at the population level. -

Aleesha Jethwa
Postdoctoral Scholar, Anesthesiology, Perioperative and Pain Medicine
BioDr Jethwa is a postdoctoral fellow working in Dr Sultan's lab, within the Obstetric Anesthesiology Department. She is funded by the R90 HEAL/Pain Cohort grant. Her research focuses on the peripartum period and how targeted interventions can alter recovery trajectories.
Dr Jethwa previously worked as a resident anesthesiologist in the UK for 7 years including rotations in Internal Medicine, Obstetrics, and Pain Medicine and completed a Masters in Education at the University of Pennsylvania focused on medical education. -
Rathinaraja Jeyaraj
Postdoctoral Scholar, Pathology
BioI work at the intersection of AI, multimodal learning, and large-scale image analytics, with a strong focus on computational pathology and foundation models for healthcare. My current research interests include LLMs, VLMs, multimodal reasoning, whole-slide image analysis, retrieval-augmented generation (RAG), and trustworthy AI for medical decision support.
I develop scalable deep learning systems spanning WSI preprocessing, multiple instance learning, segmentation, survival prediction, and multimodal image-text modeling. My work also involves attention interpretability, contrastive learning, pathology foundation model adaptation, and large-scale AI pipelines. Beyond healthcare AI, I have experience in time-series forecasting, distributed computing, cloud infrastructure, and real-time computer vision systems for industrial and smart-city applications.
I am particularly interested in building reliable, interpretable, and clinically meaningful AI systems that bridge computer vision, multimodal learning, and large-scale reasoning. -
Lu Ji
Postdoctoral Scholar, Radiation Biology
BioDriven by the enthusiasm and curiosity about life science and human disease, I have been working on cancer research for more than 5 years.
