Julia D. Ransohoff
Instructor, Medicine - Oncology
BioDr. Ransohoff received her B.A. from Harvard College in Human Developmental and Regenerative Biology and completed her medical training at Stanford University, where she received her M.D., completed residency in internal medicine, and fellowship training in hematology and oncology as part of the American Board of Internal Medicine Physician Scientist Training Program.
Dr. Ransohoff is a physician-scientist dedicated to improving breast cancer treatments and outcomes through developing genomic methods to profile how tumors respond to treatment. Her research focuses on molecular approaches to understand the variable clinical responses of breast cancers to treatment at the genomic level by profiling molecular residual disease. Her current work involves exploring mechanisms of chemoresistance and immune evasion and identifying novel therapeutic targets. In related work, she also studies epidemiological risk factors for breast cancer mortality with a focus on the gut microbiome, oncofertility, and racial and ethnic differences in treatment response. Dr. Ransohoff's research has been supported by the ASCO Conquer Cancer Foundation, the Terri Brodeur Breast Cancer Foundation, the Stanford Cancer Institute, ECOG-ACRIN, and the Chan Zuckerberg Initiative.
As an Instructor in the Division of Medical Oncology, Dr. Ransohoff is also a clinically active oncologist, treating patients with breast cancer. -

Mitesh Rao
Adjunct Clinical Assistant Professor, Emergency Medicine
BioDr. Mitesh B. Rao, MD, MHS is the Founder and CEO of OMNY, a venture-backed company revolutionizing how healthcare data is shared and valued. A Board-Certified Emergency Medicine Physician, Dr. Rao practices clinically as an Assistant Professor of Emergency Medicine at Stanford. Most recently, he served as the Chief Patient Safety Officer for Stanford Healthcare where he led Patient Safety, Quality, and System Redesign for the Enterprise. Dr. Rao also served as Director of the Center for Advancing Patient Safety (CAPS), which focused on advancing the science and implementing new innovations in the fields of Patient Safety and Quality Improvement.
Previously, he was trained in leadership and research skills as a Fellow in the prestigious Robert Wood Johnson Clinical Scholars Program. Subsequent to his time at Yale, he served as the Director of the Patient Safety Education Program at Northwestern Medicine. As a physician leader, he was helped implement systems-level improvements for quality and safety in institutions across the country and overseas that have had lasting effects on patient care provision. He has also led teams serving contracts with various governmental and non-profit agencies such as the Joint Commission Resources, CMS, the Canadian Patient Safety Institute, Partners Health Care, and the American College of Surgeons in multiple campaigns and initiatives to improve Patient Safety on a national level.
Dr. Rao also served as the Head of Research and Integration for the health innovation program at Northwestern. In this role, he developed an expertise in improving care provision through innovative methodologies. He spearheaded efforts to integrate innovative technologies into the health system to improve patient care in a variety of settings, including telemedicine and mHealth initiatives. Working both with innovators and researchers across the various schools of the University as well as promising startups from around the country, Dr. Rao helped guide and refine the process for vetting and integrating pilot programs to test new technologies within the clinical venue. He also serves as a mentor to multiple healthcare-focused startups and accelerator groups across the country in order to help guide the development of implementation of innovative solutions that can sustainably impact patient care provision.
