Kellen Glinder
Adjunct Clinical Assistant Professor, Pediatrics - General Pediatrics
BioDr. Kellen Glinder is a distinguished pediatrician with over two decades of experience in Silicon Valley. He practiced for 17 years at the Palo Alto Medical Foundation Pediatric department in Palo Alto where he helped build and implement many of the pediatric electronic medical record tools currently in use throughout Sutter Health. He founded and chaired the PAMF Asthma Committee and the Sutter Childhood Asthma Committee as well as developed a program for pediatric pulmonary function testing and asthma education, including training asthma educators statewide for underfunded clinics in California.
In his role as Pediatric Department Chair at PAMF Palo Alto, he worked closely with Stanford Children's Hospital to coordinate care for our children in our community and facilitate collaboration between PAMF, Sutter, and Stanford Children's Hospital, including representing the community pediatricians on the Medical Executive Committee of Stanford Children's Hospital. His advocacy for children extends to his expertise on the Silicon Valley Advisory Council of Commonsense Media and some of his public speaking roles. He is also the author of "Pause, Cope, and Connect," a book to teaching mindfulness practices to grade school children and has brought his own mindfulness practice to the classroom, teaching courses in the art of medical communication at several institutions, including Geisel School of Medicine at Dartmouth.
Dr. Glinder currently sees patients at Maison Medical Group, a small private clinic in Portola Valley, CA. -
Anna L Gloyn
Professor of Pediatrics (Endocrinology) and of Genetics
Current Research and Scholarly InterestsAnna's current research projects are focused on the translation of genetic association signals for type 2 diabetes and glycaemic traits into cellular and molecular mechanisms for beta-cell dysfunction and diabetes. Her group uses a variety of complementary approaches, including human genetics, functional genomics, physiology and islet-biology to dissect out the molecular mechanisms driving disease pathogenesis.

Neville H. Golden M.D.
Marron and Mary Elizabeth Kendrick Professor of Pediatrics, Emeritus
Current Research and Scholarly InterestsMy research has focused on the medical complications of adolescents with eating disorders. My specific area of study has been the etiology and implications of amenorrhea in adolescents with eating disorders, in particular the management of reduced bone mass and osteoporosis in anorexia nervosa.

Natalia Gomez-Ospina
Assistant Professor of Pediatrics (Genetics)
Current Research and Scholarly InterestsDr. Gomez-Ospina is a physician scientist and medical geneticist with a strong interest in the diagnosis and management of genetic diseases.
1) Lysosomal storage diseases:
Her research program is on developing better therapies for a large class of neurodegenerative diseases in children known as lysosomal storage disorders. Her current focus is on developing genome editing of hematopoietic stem cells as a therapeutic approach for these diseases beginning with Mucopolysaccharidosis type 1 and Gaucher disease. She established a genetic approach where therapeutic proteins can be targeted to a single well-characterized place in the genome known as a safe harbor. This approach constitutes a flexible, “one size fits all” approach that is independent of specific genes and mutations. This strategy, in which the hematopoietic system is commandeered to express and deliver therapeutic proteins to the brain can potentially change the current approaches to treating childhood neurodegenerative diseases and pave the way for alternative therapies for adult neurodegenerative disorders such as Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s disease
2) Point of care ammonia testing
She also works in collaboration with other researchers at Stanford to develop point-of-care testing for serum ammonia levels. Such device will greatly improve the quality of life of children and families with metabolic disorders with hyperammonemia.
3) Gene discovery
Dr Gomez-Ospina lead a multi-institutional collaboration resulting in the discovery of a novel genetic cause of neonatal and infantile cholestatic liver disease. She collaborated in the description of two novel neurologic syndromes caused by mutations in DYRK1 and CHD4.
