Brandon Bergsneider
MD Student with Scholarly Concentration in Informatics & Data-Driven Medicine / Immunology, expected graduation Spring 2026
BioBrandon Hwa-Lin Bergsneider, from Los Angeles, CA, is pursuing an MD at Stanford School of Medicine. Brandon earned a bachelor of science in human biology from Stanford, and a MSc in bioinformatics and theoretical systems biology from Imperial College London. Brandon aspires to use data science-based technologies to advance health equity through early diagnosis, democratizing health information, and improving treatment efficacy. At Stanford and Imperial, he researched the molecular bases of neurodegeneration, the genetic susceptibility of neuroblastoma patients to SARS-CoV-2, computational protein structure prediction, and using machine learning to identify chemotherapy-resistant cancer cells. Brandon has also worked at the National Institutes of Health, where he used computational network analysis to identify clinical and demographic determinants of brain tumor patient symptom burden. Brandon has multiple first-author publications and, outside of academics, enjoys volunteering as a surf-therapy instructor for military veterans. He is a Knight-Hennessy Scholar, a Fulbright Scholar, and an NIH Cancer Research Training Award Fellow.

Michele Berk, Ph.D.
Associate Professor of Psychiatry and Behavior Sciences (Child and Adolescent Psychiatry and Child Development)
Current Research and Scholarly InterestsThe focus of my research is on adolescent suicidal and self-harm behavior. I am currently one of four Principal Investigators of a multisite NIMH-sponsored RCT of DBT for adolescents at high risk for suicide (NCT01528020: Collaborative Adolescent Research on Emotions and Suicide [CARES], PI: Linehan, McCauley, Berk, & Asarnow) aimed at evaluating the efficacy of DBT with adolescents compared to a combined individual and group supportive therapy control condition (IGST).

Jon Bernstein
Professor of Pediatrics (Genetics) and, by courtesy, of Genetics
Current Research and Scholarly InterestsMy research is focused on the diagnosis, discovery and delineation of rare genetic conditions with a focus on neurodevelopmental disorders. This work includes the application of novel computational methods and multi-omics profiling (whole genome sequencing, long-read DNA sequencing, RNA sequencing, methylomics, metabolomics). I additionally participate in an interdisciplinary project to develop induced pluripotent stem cell and assembloid models of genetic neurodevelopmental disorders.
