    Jennifer Woo Baidal

    Associate Professor of Pediatrics (Gastroenterology) and, by courtesy, of Epidemiology and Population Health

    BioJennifer Woo Baidal is Associate Professor of Pediatrics, with tenure, and Associate Chair for Clinical Research in the Department of Pediatrics at Stanford University School of Medicine. She is also Chair for the North American Society of Pediatric Gastroenterology, Hepatology, and Nutrition (NASPGHAN) Research Committee and a member of the American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP) Committee on Nutrition.

    As the Principal Investigator for the Childhood Research in Obesity Prevention (CROP) lab, she has experience successfully obtaining funding through National Institutes of Health, PCORI, Robert Wood Johnson Foundation, and Doris Duke Foundation to lead action-oriented child health research. Dr. Woo Baidal’s health services research program aims to improve health for all children, with a focus on reducing childhood obesity. Her research program translates clinical, community, and epidemiologic findings into population-level interventions during pregnancy, infancy, and early childhood to reduce food insecurity, improve nutrition, and prevent childhood obesity and related chronic diseases. She has shown the vital role of early life factors on chronic disease prevention, including the promise of 'food as prevention' for infants in households with food insecurity. Her work has been featured by the New York Times, NPR, and CNN, and cited in AAP guidelines and by the National Academies of Science and Medicine. In 2023, she was honored with the AAP's Mitchell B Cohen Early to Mid-Career Leadership Award.

  • Sean M. Wu

    Sean M. Wu

    Professor of Medicine (Cardiovascular Medicine) and, by courtesy, of Pediatrics

    Current Research and Scholarly InterestsMy lab seeks to identify mechanisms regulating cardiac lineage commitment during embryonic development and the biology of cardiac progenitor cells in development and disease. We believe that by understanding the transcriptional and epigenetic basis of cardiomyocyte growth and differentiation, we can identify the most effective ways to repair diseased adult hearts. We employ mouse and human embryonic and induced pluripotent stem cells as well as rodents as our in vivo models for investigation.

    BioDr. Jason Yeatman is an Associate Professor in the Graduate School of Education and Department of Psychology at Stanford University and the Division of Developmental and Behavioral Pediatrics at Stanford University School of Medicine. Dr. Yeatman completed his PhD in Psychology at Stanford where he studied the neurobiology of literacy and developed new brain imaging methods for studying the relationship between brain plasticity and learning. After finishing his PhD, he took a faculty position at the University of Washington’s Institute for Learning and Brain Sciences before returning to Stanford.

    As the director of the Brain Development and Education Lab, the overarching goal of his research is to understand the mechanisms that underlie the process of learning to read, how these mechanisms differ in children with dyslexia, and to design literacy intervention programs that are effective across the wide spectrum of learning differences. His lab employs a collection of structural and functional neuroimaging measurements to study how a child’s experience with reading instruction shapes the development of brain circuits that are specialized for this unique cognitive function.
