Richard Lafayette
Professor of Medicine (Nephrology)
Current Research and Scholarly InterestsWe are continuing to grow a glomerulonephritis cohort study, including immunologic characterization. We have completed interventional studies of preeclampsia exploring the nitric oxide, endothelin system and effects on glomerular function and morphometry. We continue to recruit patients for treatment and observational studies of glomerular disease, including FSGS, membranous and particularly IgA nephropathy. We also are actively studying renal disease in systemic amyloidosis.

Laura C. Lazzeroni, Ph.D.
Professor (Research) of Psychiatry and Behavioral Sciences, Emerita
Current Research and Scholarly InterestsStatistics/Data Science. I develop models, methods & algorithms for complex data in genetics and medicine. I am also interested in the interplay between fundamental statistical properties (e.g. variability, bias, p-values) & how scientists actually use & interpret data. My work in statistical genetics includes: the invention of Plaid bi-clustering for gene expression data; methods for twin, association, & family studies; multiple testing & estimation for high dimensional arrays.

Anson M. Lee, MD
Associate Professor of Cardiothoracic Surgery (Adult Cardiac Surgery)
BioDr. Anson M. Lee is a board-certified, fellowship-trained cardiothoracic surgeon with Stanford Health Care. He is also an associate professor in the Department of Cardiothoracic Surgery, Division of Adult Cardiac Surgery at Stanford University School of Medicine.
Dr. Lee specializes in treating all types of heart disease, such as blocked arteries, structural and valve issues, and aortic conditions. He has a special interest in treating abnormal heart rhythms (arrhythmias) and performing advanced procedures, such as video-assisted thoracoscopic hybrid ablation for difficult-to-treat atrial fibrillation. He uses minimally invasive techniques whenever possible to reduce risk and ease recovery for his patients.
In addition to patient care, Dr. Lee is a dedicated heart researcher. His recent studies have focused on optimizing treatment for atrial fibrillation, heart and lung transplantation, and valve disease, as well as improving organ preservation for lung transplantation. He is one of only a few cardiothoracic surgeons in the world publishing research on hybrid ablation and has built a leading hybrid ablation center in collaboration with Stanford Medicine electrophysiologists.
Dr. Lee has published his findings in leading medical journals, such as The Journal of Thoracic and Cardiovascular Surgery and The Annals of Thoracic Surgery. He participates in drafting clinical guidelines and currently serves on the Cardiac Clinical Practice Standards Committee of the American Association for Thoracic Surgery (AATS). He has also written several book chapters on cardiac surgery techniques, complications, and innovations. He regularly shares his research and expertise around the world, from presenting at the American Heart Association (AHA) Scientific Sessions to speaking at the AATS Foundation programs and symposiums in Thailand and China.
Dr. Lee is a member of the prestigious AATS. He is also a member of the AHA and the Society of Thoracic Surgeons. -

Jennifer Lee
Professor of Medicine (Endocrinology) and, by courtesy, of Epidemiology and Population Health
Current Research and Scholarly InterestsI am a healthcare lead and physician scientist for innovation, R&D, and advanced analytics, and oversee these aspects at VA Palo Alto/VHA, within Stanford-VA relationship. The VA has the US's largest health care system and longest running EHR. I prioritize enabling multiple partners (industry, government, academia, foundations), to innovate/R&D in the VA health care system. We prioritize mentoring students from various Schools to become future leaders in R&D, innovation, and healthcare.
