Julia Raney
Clinical Assistant Professor, Pediatrics - Adolescent Medicine
Current Research and Scholarly InterestsAdolescents are dying from drug overdoses at unprecedented rates, largely secondary to fentanyl contamination in the drug supply. A Youth Overdose Prevention Toolkit for school-based health centers is needed to combat this trend. The toolkit should include key stakeholder-informed harm reduction approaches that focus on reducing injury or death from fentanyl and other opioids without exclusively recommending abstinence; this approach is evidence-based and critical to saving lives.

Yuan James Rao, MD
Associate Professor of Radiation Oncology (Radiation Therapy)
BioDr. Yuan James Rao is an Associate Professor of Radiation Oncology, and Co-Director of Proton Therapy at Stanford University. In 2026, Dr. Rao co-led the team at Stanford that treated the world’s first pediatric and adult patients with ultra-compact upright proton therapy. Dr. Rao’s professional goal is to develop the world’s most advanced proton therapy program at Stanford University.
Proton therapy is a remarkable form of radiation treatment that uses heavy charged particles (protons) accelerated to approximately two-thirds the speed of light. The unique physics of protons allows the radiation to stop within a defined distance in the body, whereas standard x-ray therapy continues to deposit radiation after treating the tumor (known as “exit dose”). By reducing exit dose, protons may reduce normal tissue exposure to radiation, which is particularly beneficial for children and young adults with cancer, and patients requiring a second course of radiation. Dr. Rao currently coordinates the Stanford Radiation Oncology Department’s clinical, research, and education efforts related to proton therapy.
Dr. Rao’s clinical practice focuses on the care of patients with Head and Neck cancer, and Thoracic cancers. His goal is to provide the highest quality care to his patients, using the most appropriate technology. This may include proton therapy but also potentially other techniques such as intensity modulated radiation therapy (IMRT), stereotactic body radiation (SBRT), MR-guided radiotherapy, 3D conformal radiotherapy, or other technologies. Nearly all radiation technologies are available at Stanford University, and thus Dr. Rao and his Radiation Oncology colleagues are well positioned to choose the best treatment for every patient.
Dr. Rao trained at the prestigious Mallinckrodt Institute of Radiology at Washington University in St. Louis, and during residency was among the first physicians in the world to use the Mevion S250 proton therapy device and the ViewRay MRI-guided radiotherapy device. Dr. Rao has traveled to UCSF, MD Anderson, Johns Hopkins University, University of Pennsylvania, Medical University of Vienna, and University Medical Center Utrecht to learn about various advanced radiotherapy techniques including MR-guided radiotherapy, brachytherapy, and proton therapy.
Prior to his role at Stanford, Dr. Rao was a physician at George Washington University in Washington, DC and held the positions of Associate Professor of Radiation Oncology and Biomedical Engineering (by courtesy), and Assistant Professor of Neurosurgery (by courtesy). He was also the founding Director of Brachytherapy, and implemented programs for gyn, head and neck, prostate, and skin radiation implants using high dose rate (HDR) techniques. He was honored as a Washingtonian Top Doctor for each of the years that he practiced in DC, and Dr. Rao has treated members of Congress with radiotherapy (public information).
Dr. Rao is a prolific researcher with more than 50 peer-reviewed publications. He is an expert in proton therapy, head and neck cancer, thorax cancers, gyn cancers, GU cancers, brachytherapy, artificial intelligence, machine learning, image analysis and large database "big data." He is co-author of the ‘Endometrial Cancer’ chapter of the 8th edition of Perez and Brady’s Principles and Practice of Radiation Oncology, the world’s most widely used reference textbook in the field. He regularly gives invited talks nationally and internationally. Dr. Rao has been grant funded by the American Cancer Society.
Dr. Rao is a respected educator and mentor, and has taught numerous engineering/physics students, medical students and residents; many of whom have gone on to become successful physicists, scientists, entrepreneurs, and physicians. -

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.
