    Yvonne Maldonado

    Vice Provost for Faculty Advancement, Taube Professor of Global Health and Infectious Diseases, Professor of Pediatrics (Infectious Diseases) and of Epidemiology and Population Health

    Current Research and Scholarly InterestsMy research focuses on epidemiologic aspects of viral vaccines and perinatal HIV infection. This includes the molecular epidemiology of factors affecting the immunogenicity of oral polio vaccine (OPV) in developing areas of the world, and now the epidemiology of transmission and circulation of vaccine derived polioviruses in order to assist in global eradication of polio. I also work in development of methods to prevent breastfeeding transmission of HIV in Africa.

    Senior Discovery Stage Project Manager, Peds/CDCM Center for Definitive and Curative Medicine

    BioManasvi Marathe is a Senior Discovery Stage Project Manager at the Center for Definitive and Curative Medicine (CDCM) at Stanford University School of Medicine. In this role, she oversees a diverse portfolio of projects and programs within the genome-editing platform, applying her clinical research expertise and project management acumen to support clinical investigators in achieving their project milestones and goals.

    With a foundational career as a dentist in India, she brings a unique perspective to her work, underscored by her commitment to patient care. Her aspiration to impact healthcare on a broader scale led her to pursue a Master’s in Public Health from NYU, marking her transition into clinical research. Throughout her career, she has contributed to a wide array of studies, including epidemiological research, medical device trials, and groundbreaking cell and gene therapies at prestigious institutions such as Harvard T H Chan School of Public Health, NYU Medical School and College of Dentistry, and Stanford University.

    Throughout her career, she has demonstrated the ability to lead complex research initiatives and foster collaborations with prominent funding sources like NIH, CIRM, and tech industry leaders such as Apple.

  • Peter Margolis, MD, PhD

    Peter Margolis, MD, PhD

    Adjunct Professor, Pediatrics - General Pediatrics

    BioPeter Margolis, MD, PhD, is Adjunct Professor of Pediatrics at Stanford University School of Medicine, Emeritus Professor (pending) of Pediatrics at the University of Cincinnati School of Medicine, and former Co-Director of the James M. Anderson Center for Health Systems Excellence at Cincinnati Children’s Hospital Medical Center. His work encompasses the application and study of systems improvement methods across a broad range of areas, including primary and sub-specialty care, communities, and public health settings to improve the health outcomes of children, families, and communities. Over the last 20 years, he and his research team have developed innovative approaches that engage patients, their families, clinicians, scientists, and communities in developing network-based learning health systems that simultaneously improve care, spawn innovation, and accelerate research. This work has repeatedly demonstrated significant impact on the process and outcomes of care. Dr. Margolis has extensive experience in large-scale comparative effectiveness research, the creation of large-scale interoperable data systems, managing large project teams, and engaging individuals from diverse backgrounds to co-produce improved care and research. He served as Chair of the PCORnet Council, guiding the Patient-Centered Outcomes Research Institute’s investment in transforming research infrastructure in the US. The ImproveCareNow Network, which he leads, was awarded the Drucker Prize, the largest non-profit management and innovation award in the US. Dr. Margolis is an elected member of the National Academy of Medicine.

  • Ivana Maric

    Ivana Maric

    Assistant Professor (Research) of Pediatrics (Neonatology)

    BioIvana Maric is an Assistant Professor in the Pediatrics Department at the Stanford University School of Medicine. Her research focuses on applying machine learning to improving maternal and neonatal health. Her main focus has been on developing machine learning models for early prediction of adverse outcomes of pregnancy from omics and electronic health records data, that could guide development of low-cost, point of care diagnostic tools. Her main interest is in solutions that are applicable worldwide and especially in low-resource settings. Previously, her research focused on information theory, a mathematical discipline tightly related to statistics and machine learning. She is a recipient of the 2021 Rosenkranz Prize awarded for innovative work to improve health in low- or middle-income countries. She is also a co-recipient of the 2013 IEEE Communications Society Best Tutorial Paper Award.

    She received BS degree from the University of Novi Sad, Serbia, MS and PhD at Rutgers University and postdoctoral training at Stanford University. She served as an Associate Editor for the IEEE Communications Letters from 2009 to 2012 and for the Trans. on Emerging Telecommunications Technologies from 2016 to 2018.
