At Hospital Israelita Albert Einstein:
- Started the Health Story project, a medical history timeline to support research and a more personalized clinical practice
- Ran the development of AI algorithms for diseases of national importance: Tuberculosis, COVID, Melanoma and Head CT -
Samantha Reyes
Postdoctoral Scholar, Molecular Imaging Program at Stanford
BioResearch Interests: Preclinical and clinical PET imaging, novel tracer validation in vivo, neuroinflammation, proteomics, theranostics and pharmacokinetic modeling
Samantha is an NIH T32 SMIS Postdoctoral Scholar who completed her PhD in Biomedical Physics in Dr. Michelle James' laboratory at Stanford, where her doctoral work focused on the development and translational validation of novel PET radiotracers for non-invasive imaging of neuroinflammation. She led the preclinical development and validation of two GPR84-targeted PET radiotracers for imaging innate immune activation in a murine model of multiple sclerosis, and also led the clinical data analysis for the first whole-body TSPO-PET/MRI study in female patients with ME/CFS. She is well-versed in preclinical and clinical PET quantitation, pharmacokinetic modeling, autoradiography, and cell-based assays. Her postdoctoral research applies her molecular imaging expertise to gynecological cancers, with a focus on using proteomics-driven biomarker discovery and novel theranostic radioligands to characterize the tumor microenvironment and improve response to therapy in women's cancer. -
Desirée Rodrigues Plaça
Postdoctoral Scholar, Infectious Diseases
Current Research and Scholarly InterestsI am studying Flaviviridae viruses, focusing on dengue. My research explores T cell and myeloid dysregulation in severe dengue to improve vaccines and identify biomarkers. I'm characterizing T cell responses to DENV, and the regulatory immune response through integrative systems analysis. My ultimate goal is to contribute to the development of improved diagnostic tools and vaccines for pediatric infectious diseases, particularly in endemic regions like Brazil.

Kevin Rose
Postdoctoral Scholar, Structural Biology
Current Research and Scholarly InterestsI am interested in studying organelle dysfunction and host cell responses at the highest resolution possible in natively preserved tissues. To do this, I couple correlative light and cryo-Electron Tomography (cryo-ET) and perform ultrastructural analysis of healthy and diseased organelles. This technique hopes to uncover new molecular details of pathophysiology so that we can improve our understanding of diseases such as cancer and neurodegeneration to improve the rationale therapeutic design.

Soumyadeep Roy
Postdoctoral Scholar, Biomedical Informatics
BioI am a postdoctoral scholar at the Center for Biomedical Informatics Research of Stanford University, advised by Prof. Tina Hernandez-Boussard.
My primary area of research is natural language processing, with expertise in medical and healthcare applications. My research areas of interest are Foundation Models for Medicine, Generative AI, Text Summarization, and Efficient Pretraining.
I hold a PhD in Computer Science and Engineering from the Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur, where I worked with Prof. Niloy Ganguly and Prof. Shamik Sural. Here, I was part of the Complex Networks Research Group (CNeRG). My PhD thesis is titled “Domain Adaptation for Medical Language Understanding”, where I developed novel domain adaptation techniques to effectively and efficiently adapt open-domain AI models to the medical domain.
In summary, I have six years of experience working with medical NLP data, which includes clinical trial registry data (2018-2021), medical forum questions (2020-2021), DNA sequence data (2021-2024), biomedical scientific literature (2023 - 2025), clinical data (2021-2023) and EHR clinical notes (2025). My medical AI research experience includes 2.5 years at L3S Research Germany collaborating with Hannover Medical School as well as a 7-month research internship at GE HealthCare Technology and Innovation Center (HTIC) in Bangalore, India. I also presented a tutorial on March 10, 2025 titled "Building Trustworthy AI Models for Medicine" at WSDM 2025 held in Germany.
In my free time, I like hiking, and playing chess or table tennis. -
Michael Royer
Postdoctoral Scholar, SCRDP/ Heart Disease Prevention
Current Research and Scholarly InterestsDr. Royer's research interests include food insecurity, eating behaviors, and physical activity. His research primarily aims to remove barriers hindering individuals from accessing healthy food. Dr. Royer seeks to advance public health by sustainably promoting healthy eating and food security through innovative and evidence-based research approaches. Through his research, he is motivated to promote food security, healthy eating, and physical activity toward the prevention of chronic disease.

Katie Rozzell-Voss
Postdoctoral Scholar, Psychiatry
BioKatie received her PhD in Clinical Psychology from the University of Hawai'i at Manoa. She completed her predoctoral clinical psychology internship at the University of California, San Diego, where she worked at the UCSD Eating Disorder Center for Treatment and Research and Rady Children's Hospital. Katie's research interests focus on the impact of body image distress and internalized weight bias on disordered eating and other health behaviors, measurement invariance of eating disorder assessments across diverse populations, and neuroendocrinological risk factors of eating disorders. She currently works as a postdoctoral fellow in the Eating Disorders Clinic and Student Athlete Mental Health Clinic at Stanford.
