Jennifer Anne Rabbitts
Professor of Anesthesiology, Perioperative & Pain Medicine (Pediatric) and, by courtesy, of Pediatrics
BioJennifer Rabbitts, MD is Professor and Chief of Pediatric Pain Management at Stanford University School of Medicine. Dr. Rabbitts directs an NIH-funded research laboratory focused on improving long-term pain and health outcomes in children and adolescents undergoing surgery. Her research is devoted to understanding and preventing chronic postsurgical pain, a disabling condition affecting 20% youth undergoing major surgery. Her current research studies investigate the role of biopsychosocial mechanisms including child psychosocial factors, parental/family factors, and psychophysical processes underlying acute to chronic pain transition. Current clinical trials focus on testing feasibility and efficacy of psychosocial and complementary and integrative interventions to improve acute postsurgical pain and prevent transition to chronic pain.
Dr Rabbitts is passionate about mentoring, and is a PI for the NIH HEAL PAIN Training grant in Maternal and Child Pain and Health at Stanford. She serves as section editor for Psychology, Psychiatry and Brain Neuroscience Section for Pain Medicine, and serves on the editorial boards for Pediatric Anesthesia and Journal of Pain.

Benjamin Micah Raber
Clinical Assistant Professor, Surgery - General Surgery
BioDr. Benjamin Raber is a board-certified, fellowship-trained surgical oncologist at Stanford Health Care. He is also a clinical assistant professor in the Department of Surgery, Division of General Surgery at Stanford University School of Medicine.
Dr. Raber specializes in surgical treatments for benign and cancerous breast diseases. He performs a wide range of procedures, including lumpectomy, nipple-sparing mastectomy, and preventive mastectomy. Dr. Raber uses the latest and most effective surgical approaches, including wire-free, breast-conserving surgery for lumpectomies and hidden scar surgery (to hide incisions). He is committed to compassionate, patient-centered care that involves close collaboration with his colleagues in medical and radiation oncology, radiology, and plastic surgery.
Dr. Raber is actively involved in community outreach and breast cancer education. He has led regional initiatives to promote awareness, expand access to breast cancer screenings, and improve early detection.
Dr. Raber’s research focuses on improving surgical treatments for breast cancer, including better ways to treat cancer that has spread to nearby lymph nodes. He has also explored using ultrasound imaging to help surgeons locate and remove cancerous tissue more precisely during breast-conserving surgery. His research has been published in prominent peer-reviewed journals, including Annals of Surgical Oncology, Magnetic Resonance Imaging Clinics of North America, and The American Journal of Surgery.
Dr. Raber is a fellow of the American College of Surgeons (ACS) and a member of the American Society of Breast Surgeons (ASBrS). -
Marlene Rabinovitch
Dwight and Vera Dunlevie Professor of Pediatric Cardiology
Current Research and Scholarly InterestsOur research program seeks to identify the cellular and molecular programs regulating vascular and lung development, through the use of cultured cells and tissues and mouse and rat models. We then determine how these programs are perturbed by genetic abnormalities or injurious processes associated with disease, focusing on pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH), a fatal complication in children with heart defects, and a condition of unknown etiology primarily in young women.

Cara Rada
Postdoctoral Scholar, Hematology
Current Research and Scholarly InterestsI develop human brain models to study neurological infection, cancer metastasis, and neurodegeneration. My research focuses on the brain’s blood vessels and brain resident immune cell, microglia, and investigates how alterations in these components of the brain microenvironment can have deleterious effects.
