Michael S. Kapiloff, MD, PhD
Reinhard Family Professor, Professor (Research) of Ophthalmology and, by courtesy, of Medicine (Cardiovascular Medicine)
Current Research and Scholarly InterestsDr. Michael S. Kapiloff is a faculty member in the Departments of Ophthalmology and Medicine (Cardiovascular Medicine) and a member of the Stanford Cardiovascular Institute. Although Dr. Kapiloff was at one time a Board-Certified General Pediatrician, he is currently involved in full-time basic science and translational research. His laboratory studies the basic molecular mechanisms underlying the response of the retinal ganglion cell and cardiac myocyte to disease. The longstanding interest of his laboratory is the role in intracellular signal transduction of multimolecular complexes organized by scaffold proteins. Recently, his lab has also been involved in the translation of these concepts into new therapies, including the development of new AAV gene therapy biologics for the prevention and treatment of heart failure and for neuroprotection in the eye.

Khizer Khaderi MD, MPH
Clinical Associate Professor, Ophthalmology
BioDr. Khizer Khaderi is a Clinical Associate Professor at the Byers Eye Institute at Stanford University. Khaderi is the Founding Director of the Stanford Human Perception Laboratory (HPL) and the Stanford Vision Performance Center (VPC). He also serves as faculty at the Stanford Institute for Human-Centered AI and the Wu Tsai Human Performance Alliance (HPA)
Khaderi is a renowned Neuro-Ophthalmic surgeon, technologist and futurist. Dr. Khaderi is pioneering the field of Symbiotics, defined as the convergence of human science + computer science. Khaderi developed the discipline of Symbiotics following initial interest from CS students interested in his research at the Stanford Human Perception Lab. Symbiotics involves a deep understanding in the principles of human systems and applying these principles computationally, to design and develop the next generation of human-centric technologies, where machines perceive, understand and respond to optimize the human experience. Dr. Khaderi envisions the application of Symbiotic principles as the key to unlocking ambient intelligence.
Khaderi has extensive domain expertise in artificial intelligence (AI), spatial computing (virtual reality (VR), augmented reality (AR), mixed reality (MxR)), wearables, gaming, IoT, Web3, applied neuroscience, human factors, and human-machine interfaces/interaction. His research interests include developing personalized human intelligent systems based on the human brain and sensory systems, developing technologies to optimize human performance, and combining biological and computational principles to expand our capabilities in research, clinical practice, and everyday life. Dr. Khaderi's approach to advance research interests and develop practical applications for everyday use is building technology, companies and collaborative partnerships across academia and industry.
Dr. Khaderi’s experience across industry sectors include consumer electronics, gaming, retail, life science, sports/Esports health care, Pharma, e-commerce, to name a few. He has developed novel technologies in these areas, and generated multiple invention patents. Selected as a “40 under 40”, he contributed to President Obama’s Council of Advisors on Science and Technology regarding vision technology and the aging population. He also advises multiple companies, venture firms and organizations including the Global Esports Federation, Magic Leap, Riot Games, Intel, Activision, Unity, Epic Games, Google, FB, Microsoft, Apple, NBA, Aerie Pharma, the World Health Organization, and the World Bank. -
Benyam Z. Kinde, MD, PhD
Assistant Professor of Ophthalmology
BioDr. Kinde is a board-certified, fellowship-trained ophthalmologist and ophthalmic plastic and reconstructive surgeon at Stanford Health Care Byers Eye Institute. He is also an assistant professor in the Department of Ophthalmology at Stanford University School of Medicine. Dr. Kinde completed the American Society of Ophthalmic and Plastic Reconstructive Surgery (ASOPRS) fellowship in ophthalmic plastic surgery through the Bascom Palmer Eye Institute at the University of Miami.
Dr. Kinde diagnoses and treats a wide range of conditions related to the eyelid and other eye structures, including facial nerve palsy, skin cancer, and thyroid eye disease. He also provides care for patients who wish to enhance their appearance through surgical and nonsurgical interventions. Dr. Kinde offers many types of treatments, including cosmetic surgery, eyelid surgery (including upper and lower eyelid blepharoplasty and ptosis surgery), reconstructive surgery, tear duct (lacrimal) surgery, and orbital surgery.
Dr. Kinde is a physician-scientist whose research interests focus on developing new tools to promote survival of retinal ganglion cells after optic nerve injury. He has investigated how modulating the DNA damage response in mouse models of traumatic optic neuropathy (symptoms of nerve damage) may promote and improve optic nerve function after injury. His previous work focused on increasing the resilience of neurons (messaging nerve cells) in mouse models of glaucoma and in humans with glaucoma. He completed his MD and PhD in neuroscience at Harvard Medical School, where his thesis work revealed a new understanding of Rett syndrome, a rare genetic disorder that affects body movement.
Dr. Kinde has published in many peer-reviewed journals, including Nature, Science, Cell, Ophthalmology, and Facial Plastic Surgery & Aesthetic Medicine. He has presented to his peers at international and national meetings, including the Association for Research in Vision and Ophthalmology, American Society of Ophthalmic Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery, and Inter-American Course in Clinical Ophthalmology. -
Eubee Baughn Koo
Clinical Assistant Professor, Ophthalmology
BioDr. Koo is a board-certified ophthalmologist with the Byers Eye Institute at Stanford Health Care and a clinical assistant professor in the Department of Ophthalmology.
Dr. Koo diagnoses and treats a wide range of eye conditions, such as blepharitis, macular degeneration, diabetic retinopathy, farsightedness, cataracts, and glaucoma. She performs a range of surgical procedures, including cataract surgery, chalazia excisions, and laser glaucoma surgery. Dr. Koo creates a comprehensive, personalized treatment plan for each of her patients.
In addition to her clinical responsibilities, Dr. Koo is involved in the education and oversight of medical students, interns, and Ophthalmology residents spanning all settings from the classroom to the clinic, operating room, and the hospital.
