Fellow in Medicine - Med/Infectious Diseases
Current Research and Scholarly InterestsMy current research is focused on better understanding the causes of acute febrile illness in Grenada in collaboration with the Windward Research and Education Foundation (WINDREF). We are conducting an acute febrile illness cohort and performing diagnostics for common arboviral infections including dengue, Zika, and chikungunya viruses. We will use this data to develop better estimates for the incidence of arboviral infections on the island and identify epidemiologic risk factors which could be the target of preventative interventions. This study is also assessing a novel diagnostic system for antigen detections in collaboration with Dr. Ali Yanik at UCSC. We will be testing these samples for hantavirus infections or antibodies to determine if hantaviral infections are clinically important causes of disease in Grenada. In addition, we are performing a pilot ecologic survey of rodents and bats and will attempt to identify circulating hantaviruses in these species.

Aglaia Kaissa de Boer
Clinical Assistant Professor, Medicine - Pulmonary, Allergy & Critical Care Medicine
BioKaïssa de Boer, MD is a board certified pulmonologist who specializes in the care of patients with interstitial lung disease. She completed her Internal Medicine and Pulmonary training at the University of Ottawa, Ottawa, Canada where her initial interest in caring for patients with fibrotic lung disease first developed. Subsequently she completed a fellowship in Interstitial Lung Disease at the University of California, San Francisco under the direction of Dr. Harold Collard. Dr. de Boer has a special interest in patients with connective tissue disease associated lung disease and those with drug induced pneumonitis. In addition she is actively involved in the ILD training and program development of Stanford's Pulmonary Allergy and Critical Care Fellows.

Mary de Boer
Postdoctoral Scholar, Infectious Diseases
BioI am a maternal and child nutrition researcher with expertise in nutritional epidemiology, implementation science, and environmental health. My work focuses on understanding heterogeneity in health outcomes among pregnant women in low- and middle-income countries — specifically, why evidence-based interventions fail to reach or benefit the most vulnerable subgroups. I use mixed methods combining traditional nutritional epidemiology with spatial analysis, multilevel and structural equation modeling, latent class analysis, and qualitative approaches to understand both biological and structural drivers of that heterogeneity. I come to academic research after 14 years as a field-based public health practitioner in Sub-Saharan Africa and Central Asia within the USAID Foreign Service.

Korina De Bruyne
Clinical Assistant Professor, Medicine - Primary Care and Population Health
Current Research and Scholarly InterestsThe EMPOWER study (PI: Dr Beth Darnall) is looking at how to best support patients with chronic pain on long-term opioid therapy through a slow taper (maximal duration of 1 year). Patients are randomized to taper only versus taper plus community-based pain self-management group sessions versus taper plus psychologist-led cognitive behavioral therapy for pain group sessions. Along the way alternative measures to control pain are also explored. Enrollment is open until 10/2021.

Vinicio de Jesus Perez MD
Associate Dean of Stanford MD Admissions and Professor of Medicine (PACCM)
Current Research and Scholarly InterestsMy research focuses on the molecular and cellular mechanisms that drive pulmonary vascular disease, particularly pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH). I study how endothelial dysfunction, impaired vascular repair, pericyte abnormalities, inflammation, and metabolic dysregulation contribute to pulmonary vascular remodeling and right ventricular failure. Through the integration of human tissue studies, advanced Omics technologies, and translational animal models, my work aims to identify novel th
