    Anna Maria Bombardieri, MD, PhD, MSc

    Clinical Associate Professor, Anesthesiology, Perioperative and Pain Medicine

    Current Research and Scholarly InterestsMy overall research goal is to advance clinical practice by providing anesthesiologists with data to most effectively maintain cerebral blood flow in the perioperative period.
    I am interested in the effect of the autonomic nervous system on cerebral blood flow regulation.
    I intend to combine regional anesthetic techniques and noninvasive bedside cerebral blood flow monitoring to understand the effect of the sympathetic system on cerebral blood flow.
    A secondary goal is to apply this new knowledge to investigate whether cervical sympathetic blocks improve long term neurological outcomes.

  • Bernardo Bonilauri

    Bernardo Bonilauri

    Instructor, Cardiovascular Institute

    BioDr. Bernardo Bonilauri is a molecular biologist investigating the fundamental mechanisms of protein misfolding, cryptic peptides, and non-canonical codes in human biology and disease. He completed his postdoctoral training at the Stanford Cardiovascular Institute under the mentorship of Dr. Joseph C. Wu, after which he was appointed Instructor. In this role, he continues to develop advanced in vitro disease models to probe molecular and cellular processes underlying human pathology.
    His research focuses on Transthyretin Amyloidosis (ATTR) and related protein misfolding disorders, applying multi-omics, structural biology, and stem cell–based platforms to dissect how pathogenic aggregates form and impair cellular function. In parallel, Dr. Bonilauri investigates microproteins encoded by small open reading frames (sORFs), with emphasis on their translation, subcellular localization, and biological functions in human cells.

  • Hector Fabio Bonilla

    Hector Fabio Bonilla

    Clinical Professor, Medicine - Infectious Diseases

    BioAs a young physician at Louisiana State University, Dr. Bonilla focused on the Clinical Management of HIV/AIDS and HCV, two neglected and stigmatized diseases for which effective therapies were in their infancy. While learning the clinical aspects of the two diseases, Dr. Bonilla saw a need to create and organize a support community to promote understanding and management of the conditions. Subsequently, he went to Summa Health System in Akron, Ohio, and he continued his work where he specialized in HIV/HCV as well as in Infectious Diseases Clinical Practice. In addition to teaching medical residents and students, Dr. Bonilla participated in numerous clinical trials and developed clinical research projects. Furthermore, he led the Infection Renal Transplant Program, HIV and HCV clinics, and he participated in several cooperative studies with Case Western Reserve University. Dr. Bonilla’s interest in academia led him to the University Of Pittsburgh Medical Center where he was an Assistant Professor, Clinician, and Medical Educator in the Department of Medicine in the Division of Infectious Diseases. Due to his interest in cytokines and immunological responses, Dr. Bonilla became a researcher at ImmunoScience Inc., a biotechnology company in California that works to develop a therapeutic HIV vaccine. Dr. Bonilla’s experience of treating HIV/HCV combined with his interest in inflammatory response is the driving force behind his desire to understand ME/CFS. Dr. Bonilla is a strong patient advocate, and he believes in integrated care—care in which physicians communicate and coordinate efforts to deliver the best medical outcome for patients. His ME/CFS patients are his inspiration, and he is committed to continuing research to seek answers to their health challenges.

  • John  Boothroyd

    John Boothroyd

    Burt and Marion Avery Professor of Immunology, Emeritus

    Current Research and Scholarly InterestsUntil its permanent closure in 2025, John Boothroyd's lab focused on the interaction between the protozoan parasite Toxoplasma gondii and its mammalian host. We used a combination of molecular and genetic tools to understand how this obligate intracellular parasite can invade almost any cell it encounters, how it co-opts a host cell once inside and how it evades the immune response to produce a life-long, persistent infection.

  • Alexandra Bor, MD

    Alexandra Bor, MD

    Clinical Assistant Professor, Anesthesiology, Perioperative and Pain Medicine

    BioDr. Alexandra Bor is a board-certified, fellowship-trained anesthesiologist with Stanford Health Care. She is also a clinical assistant professor in the Department of Anesthesiology, Perioperative and Pain Medicine at Stanford University School of Medicine.

    Dr. Bor specializes in anesthesia and pain management, with an emphasis on pediatric anesthesiology.

    Her research focuses on improving surgical techniques and patient experience during procedures.

    Dr. Bor has published her research in several peer-reviewed journals, including Anesthesia & Analgesia, Canadian Journal of Urology, Journal of Cardiothoracic and Vascular Anesthesia, and Urology. She has also contributed chapters to “Anesthesiologist's Manual of Surgical Procedures” and presented to her peers at national meetings.
