Polly Fordyce
Associate Professor of Bioengineering and of Genetics
Current Research and Scholarly InterestsThe Fordyce Lab is focused on developing new instrumentation and assays for making quantitative, systems-scale biophysical measurements of molecular interactions. Current research in the lab is focused on three main platforms: (1) arrays of valved reaction chambers for high-throughput protein expression and characterization, (2) spectrally encoded beads for multiplexed bioassays, and (3) sortable droplets and microwells for single-cell assays.

Daiana Fornes
Postdoctoral Scholar, Pulmonary
BioDaiana Fornes is a postdoctoral scholar at Stanford University, supported by a Maternal & Child Health Research Institute (MCHRI) Postdoctoral Fellowship. Her research centers on reproductive biology and pregnancy disorders, with a particular focus on uterine contractility, preterm labor, and uterine atony. She investigates calcium signaling pathways, including the role of TRPV4 ion channels, to identify novel therapeutic strategies aimed at improving maternal health outcomes.
Daiana earned her PhD from the University of Buenos Aires, where she studied metabolic alterations during pregnancy and their effects on fetal development. Her training has provided her with a strong foundation in translational research, with extensive experience in experimental design, molecular biology, and the analysis of signaling pathways. -
Ines Forrest
Postdoctoral Scholar, Stanford Cancer Institute
BioI completed a dual Master's Degree in Chemistry/Biochemistry (University of Oklahoma) and Organic Chemistry/Chemical Engineering (Sigma-Clermont), as well as a Ph.D. in Chemical and Biological Sciences (The Scripps Research Institute). As a postdoctoral research fellow at Stanford in Prof. Nathanael Gray's lab, I look forward to applying my skills in chemical proteomics, chemistry, and molecular biology to drive impactful research at the interface of chemistry and medicine and develop pioneering solutions to improve human health.

Joseph (Joe) D Forrester MD MSc FACS
Associate Professor of Surgery (General Surgery)
Current Research and Scholarly InterestsI am broadly interested in research exploring the care of the injured patient both in high- and low-resource settings. I have specific on-going projects assessing surgical site infection surveillance in low-resource settings, and surgical management of acute and chronic non-union rib fractures.
