Bobak Seddighzadeh
Affiliate, Department Funds
Fellow in Peds/Clinical InformaticsBioOver the past 13 years, Dr. Seddighzadeh has advanced biomedical innovation at Harvard, Stanford, and the Mayo Clinic, integrating emerging technologies with clinical medicine to improve patient care.
Dr. Seddighzadeh’s expertise spans genomic medicine, clinical informatics, and clinical AI. He has built enterprise-level clinical decision support systems that improve care at scale, and as part of the Stanford GUIDE-AI group and the Nigam Shah Lab, he focuses on developing AI-enabled clinical platforms for Stanford’s hospitals and clinics. His work in clinical AI includes implementation, evaluation, and safety guardrails. He also contributes to precision medicine efforts that use multi-omic data to identify disease subtypes and enable more individualized care. As part of Chan Zuckerberg Biohub, he helped build one of the world’s first complete human cell atlases.
In clinical practice, Dr. Seddighzadeh is committed to delivering outstanding internal medicine care to hospitalized patients. He approaches medicine as a craft, continually sharpening diagnostic reasoning and therapeutic decision-making in service of the best possible outcomes. He also values prevention and partners with patients to build sustainable habits that support long-term health and health span.
At New York University, Dr. Seddighzadeh received the Degree Representative Award, an honor conferred by the faculty recognizing the single graduating student with the highest overall academic achievement. He later earned a full-tuition scholarship from the founding dean to attend the University of Nevada, where he graduated with top honors in medicine. He went on to complete his internal medicine residency at Mayo Clinic where he was selected for the Resident Leadership Academy, a specialized program for residents identified across the Mayo Clinic enterprise as future leaders. There he also developed and launched the AI and Medicine Residency Track. He is currently a Clinical Informatics Fellow and internal medicine hospitalist at Stanford University. -

Armandeep Singh
Affiliate, School of Medicine - Biomedical Ethics
BioArmandeep Singh is a rising senior at the University of Toronto, pursuing a double major in Human Biology and Biochemistry, and aspires to become a physician. Originally from Punjab, India, he is passionate about medicine, education, mentorship, and helping others feel supported and capable. As a Scholar in Stanford’s Storytelling and Medicine Program’s Class of 2026, he is exploring the role of storytelling in medicine. His interest in storytelling comes from his own life experiences and from the people he has met through teaching, research, and community service. His participation in Yale’s Foundations of Bioethics program deepened his interest in clinical ethics, public health, and the human side of healthcare. His research interests include cardiovascular health in South Asian communities and the use of immersive virtual reality to make complex scientific concepts more accessible and engaging. Armandeep’s interest in medicine was also shaped by his father’s illness and recovery, which showed him the difference a compassionate physician can make in a family’s life. He hopes to become a physician who sees patients and their families as whole people shaped by their stories, circumstances, and lived experiences.
