Claudia Katharina Petritsch
Associate Professor (Research) of Neurosurgery
Sr Res Scientist-Basic Life, Adult NeurologyCurrent Research and Scholarly InterestsThe Petritsch lab broadly investigates underlying causes for the intra-tumoral heterogeneity and immune suppression in brain tumors from a neuro-developmental perspective. Defective cell fate decisions fuel the intra-humoral heterogeneity and plasticity in human brain tumors and may contribute to immune suppression. We use patient-derived models as avatars to study how brain cells control the fate of their progeny, whereby we unravel novel points of vulnerabilities in brain tumor cells.

Lisa Pineda
Senior Simulations Specialist, Pediatrics - Neonatology
BioLisa received a Bachelor of Science in Kinesiology with an emphasis in Athletic Training from San Jose State University, a Master of Science in Perinatal Clinical Nurse Specialist/Neonatal Emphasis from the University of California San Francisco, and a Post-Graduate Family Nurse Practitioner Certificate from San Francisco State University.
Lisa started her nursing career at Lucile Packard Children’s Hospital in the Labor and Delivery Unit. It became clear early in her career that research-driven high-quality patient-centered care was integral to her learning and passion for nursing. As a staff nurse, she participated in multiple obstetric simulations at CAPE, and she was immediately drawn to the systematic approach, clear communication, and debriefing process within the simulation methodology. For more than two decades, Lisa’s work has included bedside nursing, advanced practice nursing for women and children, and public health nursing with a particular passion for research dedicated to improving patient outcomes. -

Danielle Polevoi
Instructional Faculty, Physician Assistant Studies
BioDanielle Polevoi is a recently board certified physician assistant who graduated from Stanford University School of Medicine’s Master of Science in Physician Assistant Studies program with a concentration in Medical Education. During PA school, she was selected as one of fifteen students nationwide to participate in The PAEA’s Future Educator Fellowship program. She was also chosen by Stanford MSPA faculty as one of three students in the Class of 2022 to represent our program in the AAPA Virtual Challenge Bowl in 2021.
Prior to getting her master's degree, Danielle attended UCLA where she received a B.S. in Biology. In order to gain patient care experience for PA school, she worked as an Emergency Department Scribe at Zuckerberg San Francisco General Hospital and Trauma Center and as a medical assistant in a gynecologic surgery group.
Danielle was born and raised in San Francisco. She is eager to begin her career at SHC in the Medical ICU taking care of critically ill patients. -
Dr. Gerald R. Popelka, PhD
Consulting Professor of Otolaryngology
Senior Scientist, Rad/Radiological Sciences LaboratoryCurrent Research and Scholarly InterestsMy long term research effort is centered on understanding and accurately measuring normal and abnormal sensory function at the periphery and within the brain. I have long been involved with the auditory system. My goals include specifically understanding the basic mechanisms of hearing and hearing loss and developing effective and safe interventions that include surgical intervention, wearable devices, and therapeutic interventions.

Rosita Primavera
Basic Life Research Scientist, Rad/Pediatric Radiology
BioDr. Rosita Primavera is a Basic Life Research Scientist at Stanford University in the Department of Radiology/Pediatric Radiology. With an MD in Chemistry and Pharmaceutical Technology and a PhD in Cellular and Molecular Biotechnologies, she brings a robust educational background to her research endeavors. Dr. Primavera has extensive experience in developing nano- and micro-drug delivery systems (DDS) as well as 3D platforms aimed at treating various diseases.
Her training includes a variety of techniques for creating drug delivery systems and 3D platforms, utilizing both synthetic and natural materials, and employing methods such as top-down and bottom-up fabrication. Over the past few years, Dr. Primavera's research interests have increasingly focused on diabetes. She has received extensive training in handling and processing pancreatic islets from multiple sources, including mice, rats, and humans, equipping her with the expertise needed to conduct both in vitro and in vivo experiments involving diabetic animal models. Dr. Primavera is focused on developing an on-command system that mimics pancreatic islet function. Her current research further investigates the role of 3D bioscaffolds in pancreatic islet transplantation, along with the involvement of mesenchymal stem cells in diabetes treatment. She is particularly interested in innovative cellular approaches, such as co-transplantation of islets alone, within cutting-edge bioscaffolds, or in conjunction with stem cells. Through her work, Dr. Primavera aims to enhance therapeutic strategies for diabetes and improve patient outcomes. -
