Monte Winslow
Associate Professor of Genetics and of Pathology
Current Research and Scholarly InterestsOur laboratory uses genome-wide methods to uncover alterations that drive cancer progression and metastasis in genetically-engineered mouse models of human cancers. We combine cell-culture based mechanistic studies with our ability to alter pathways of interest during tumor progression in vivo to better understand each step of metastatic spread and to uncover the therapeutic vulnerabilities of advanced cancer cells.

Ellen Yeh
Associate Professor of Pathology and of Microbiology and Immunology
Current Research and Scholarly InterestsOur research program focuses on understudied microbial ecology as solutions for planet health. We select organisms with important functional traits to understand their evolution, role in the environment, and potential for bioengineering toward sustainability solutions. We are currently working on nitrogen-fixing cyanobacteria and algae, genetic screens in diatoms, and algal biofuels.

Muharrem Yunce, M.D.
Clinical Associate Professor, Pathology
BioDr. Yunce completed his transfusion medicine fellowship at Stanford and then gained invaluable clinical experience with the Malignant Hematology Group at UCSF for two years. After rejoining Stanford, Dr. Yunce started as the Medical Director of Therapeutic Apheresis. In this role, he works with clinicians from various departments, fellows, residents, and nursing staff to ensure life-saving and emergent procedures such as therapeutic plasma exchange (TPE), red cell exchange, plateletpheresis, and leukapheresis are conducted effectively. Additionally, Dr. Yunce oversees extracorporeal photopheresis for solid organ transplant rejection.
Dr. Yunce has been recognized for his contribution to the Department of Pathology as a faculty member in teaching and mentorship.He was selected for Teaching Award in 2023 and Mentor Award by the department and was nominated in 2023 and 2024 for the prestigious Alwin C. Rambar-James B.D. Mark Award for Excellence in Patient Care.
As an active member of the American Society of Apheresis, Dr. Yunce chairs the research subcommittee on TPE utilization in solid organ transplant rejection and desensitization protocols as well as he is member of multiple research subcommittees.
