Michitaka Nakano
Basic Life Research Scientist, Medicine - Med/Hematology
BioI am a MD/PhD postdoctoral fellow and medical oncologist with a long-standing interest in translational cancer research. My long-term goal is to be a lab-based physician-scientist and independent academic researcher, translating basic cancer research, and mentoring next-generation scientists. My thesis work in Japan focused on cancer stem cell equilibrium by uniquely applying organoid culture as a method to elucidate cancer stem cell dynamics, which was awarded in Japanese Cancer Association. Along with the development of the field represented by success in T cell checkpoint, my interest gradually shifted to immune oncology while I examined numerous numbers of cancer patients as a medical oncology fellow. My postdoctoral fellowship at Calvin Kuo Lab in Stanford (2019-present) focuses on tumor immune microenvironment. Kuo lab developed a unique 3D air-liquid interface (ALI) organoid system that cultures tumors while preserving their endogenous infiltrating immune cells (T,B ,NK, Myeloid cells). My postdoctoral work will prove the significance of organoids as a translational tool to discover tumor-immune interaction by novel checkpoint inhibitors for immune cells, which can be broadly applicable to basic cancer biology, precision medicine, therapeutics validation and biomarker discovery.

Shweta S. Namjoshi MD MPH
Clinical Associate Professor, Pediatrics - Gastroenterology
Current Research and Scholarly Interests1. The mission of the International Intestinal Failure Registry (IIFR) is to provide the international intestinal rehabilitation and transplant community with accurate data on the outcomes and course of intestinal failure to support research, quality improvement, and policy development. https://tts.org/irta-registries/irta-ifr
2. NCT05241444 is the first-in-human, Phase 1 clinical trial will test the feasibility of the manufacturing and the safety of the administration of CD4^LVFOXP3 in up to 36 evaluable human participants with IPEX and evaluate the impact of the CD4^LVFOXP3 infusion on the disease.
3. Stanford's local Intestinal Failure Registry (SIFR) ensures ongoing assessment and improvement of intestinal failure outcomes and care provided at Stanford in collaboratiton with the Division of Pediatric Surgery. This registry focuses on clinical outcomes and social developmental outcomes for patients with short bowel syndrome, pediatric CODEs, and pseudoobstruction. -
Sandy Napel
Professor of Radiology (Integrative Biomedical Imaging Informatics), Emeritus
Current Research and Scholarly InterestsMy research seeks to advance the clinical and basic sciences in radiology, while improving our understanding of biology and the manifestations of disease, by pioneering methods in the information sciences that integrate imaging, clinical and molecular data. A current focus is on content-based radiological image retrieval and integration of imaging features with clinical and molecular data for diagnostic, prognostic, and therapy planning decision support.

Andrew Napier
Masters Student in Clinical Informatics Management, admitted Summer 2025
BioAndrew Napier, MD, FAAEM, is a board-certified emergency physician, Army veteran, and founder working at the boundary of bedside care, medical devices, and clinical AI. He built and FDA-cleared a single-use video laryngoscope with on-blade lens clearing, co-founded an ambient documentation platform used across more than 100 care sites, and now works on real-time procedural guidance for intubation and bronchoscopy.
At Stanford MCiM, his interests include human-in-the-loop guidance for high-risk procedures, ambient clinical assistants that reduce cognitive load, and pragmatic trials that measure speed, accuracy, first-pass success, and downstream outcomes. His focus is whether clinical AI changes care at the bedside when the patient is sick and the clinician has seconds to act.
Previously, he served as Vice Chair and Assistant Medical Director of a 70,000-visit emergency department. He holds issued and pending patents, published on lens-clearing laryngoscopy in AJEM, and served as a combat medic in Afghanistan before practicing emergency medicine at high-acuity trauma centers. -
