  • Bethel Roba Mieso

    Bethel Roba Mieso

    Candidate For Affiliation, Pediatrics
    Fellow in Peds/Clinical Informatics

    BioBethel R. Mieso, MD is a general pediatrician and clinical informatics fellow at Stanford Medicine whose work sits at the intersection of operational informatics, artificial intelligence ethics, pediatric care, and health equity. Dr. Mieso has played a key role in the enterprise-wide rollout of DAX Copilot at Stanford, leading ethical and regulatory guidance, trainee deployment, and patient-facing education. She has led a post-deployment evaluation of program director AI scribe policies across training programs, with findings informing strategic guidance for GME leaders nationwide–work that extends to her contributions to a national multi-institutional collaborative on AI in graduate medical education. Her research centers patient and family perspectives of ambient AI scribes in pediatric settings, shaping how health systems approach consent, communication, and trust with AI-assisted care.

    Dr. Mieso's work merges operational informatics with strategic AI implementation–streamlining clinical workflows, reducing provider burden, and ensuring that emerging technologies serve patients equitably. She holds a BS in Biology from San Jose State University, an MD from Case Western Reserve University School of Medicine, and completed her pediatrics residency at Stanford Medicine.

  • Natalie Pageler

    Natalie Pageler

    Clinical Professor, Clinical Informatics
    Clinical Professor, Computational Medicine

    Current Research and Scholarly InterestsIn my administrative role, I oversee the development and maintenance of clinical decision support tools within the electronic medical record. These clinical decision support tools are designed to enhance patient safety, efficiency, and quality of care. My research focuses on rigorously evaluating--1) how these tools affect clinician knowledge, attitudes, and behaviors; and 2) how these tools affect clinical outcomes and efficiency of health care delivery.
