Fayed Rassoulou
Postdoctoral Scholar, Neurology and Neurological Sciences
BioFayed obtained a PhD in Psychology from Heinrich Heine University Düsseldorf, where he worked in the Institute for Clinical Neuroscience and Medical Psychology under Dr. Jan Hirschmann, and a BSc and MSc in Cognitive Science from Université Lumière Lyon 2, France. His dissertation research combined magnetoencephalography (MEG) and deep brain local field potential (LFP) recordings with machine learning to identify electrophysiological signatures that predict which deep brain stimulation (DBS) contacts will provide the greatest clinical benefit for individuals with Parkinson's disease, with the goal of reducing the time required for clinical DBS programming. His postdoctoral work at Stanford with Dr. Helen Bronte-Stewart focuses on cognitive-motor symptoms, gait impairment, and freezing of gait in Parkinson's disease. He combines subthalamic nucleus LFP dynamics, DBS lead localization, and modeling of the volume of tissue activated by stimulation with deep learning-based decoding to better understand and ultimately improve adaptive deep brain stimulation for gait.

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.
