Jane Parnes
Professor of Medicine, Emerita
Current Research and Scholarly InterestsThe lab is studying the mechanisms controlling B cell responsiveness and the balance between tolerance and autoimmunity. B cells deficient in CD72 are hyperresponsive to stimulation through the B cell receptor. We are examining the alterations in B cell signaling in these B cells and the mechanisms by which CD72 deficiency partially abrogates anergic tolerance. We hope to learn how deficiency in CD72 leads to spontaneous autoimmunity and increased susceptibility to induced autoimmune disease.

Julie Parsonnet
George DeForest Barnett Professor of Medicine, Emerita
Current Research and Scholarly InterestsI am an infectious diseases epidemiologist who has done large field studies in both the US and developing countries. We research the long-term consequences of chronic interactions between the human host and the microbial world. My lab has done fundamental work establishing the role of H. pylori in causing disease and understanding its epidemiology. Currently, our research dissects how and when children first encounter microbes and the long term effects of these exposures on health.

Clinical Assistant Professor, Medicine - Gastroenterology & Hepatology
BioDr Nandan Parthasarathy is a hepatologist and physician-scientist in the Department of Gastroenterology and Hepatology at Stanford University.
After obtaining his medical degree in JIPMER, India, he completed a 2 year clinical research fellowship at Mayo Clinic, following which he completed his residency training at Cleveland Clinic, and GI and transplant hepatology fellowships at Mayo Clinic. During his fellowship, his research work was focused on exploring the immune mechanisms of liver injury in metabolic dysfunction associated steatohepatitis.
Clinically, he is focused on taking care of patients with MASH, cirrhosis and liver cancer.
His career goal is to study the gut-immune system-liver injury axis in order to bring novel therapeutics from the bench to bedside in patients with liver disease.
