    Julie Good, MD

    Clinical Associate Professor, Anesthesiology, Perioperative and Pain Medicine

    Current Research and Scholarly InterestsJulie's academic interests include pediatric palliative care, pain and symptom management for children with life-threatening illness, medical acupuncture, and meaning in medicine (the humanistic side of doctoring)

  • Zinaida Good, Ph.D.

    Zinaida Good, Ph.D.

    Assistant Professor of Medicine (Immunology and Rheumatology)

    Current Research and Scholarly InterestsOur laboratory integrates cutting-edge synthetic biology, immunology, and machine learning to engineer T cell therapies for cancer and autoimmune diseases. We have 3 research areas:
    - Analysis of clinical single-cell and spatial transcriptomics datasets from T cell therapy trials to identify mechanisms of resistance
    - Building AI systems to generate T cell designs predicted to improve patient outcomes
    - Genetic screens of novel T cell designs in models that mimic key mechanisms of resistance

  • Alex J Goodell

    Alex J Goodell

    Clinical Scholar, Anesthesiology, Perioperative and Pain Medicine
    Postdoctoral Scholar, Anesthesiology, Perioperative and Pain Medicine

    BioAnesthesiologist and internist interested in artificial intelligence and large language models in medicine. Currently, my primary focus is on developing and evaluating applications of large language models to improve the "user experience" of patients (who spend too much time fighting the system that is tasked with healing them) and doctors (who spend too much time fighting the system that is supposed to help them heal others).

    Interests:
    - Benchmarking LLMs as clinical calculators
    - Medical summarization by LLMs
    - Agentic /tool-using language models
    - GenerativeAI for Medical Education and Simulation
    - Data equity in LLMs
    - Novel benchmarks for clinical LLMs, including simulation
    - Participatory research, open-source software

    I'm a Clinical Scholar in the Dept of Anesthesiology and a Post-Doctoral Fellow in Anesthesiology / Biomedical Data Science in the lab of Nima Aghaeepour.

    I completed medical school at the UC Berkeley - UCSF Joint Medical Program, followed by the Combined Internal Medicine/Anesthesiology Residency at the Stanford School of Medicine, and a fellowship in Anesthesia Informatics at the Stanford AIM Lab.

  • Miriam B. Goodman

    Miriam B. Goodman

    Mrs. George A. Winzer Professor of Cell Biology

    Current Research and Scholarly InterestsWe study the molecular events that give rise to the sensation of touch and chemical stressors that compromise touch sensation in C. elegans. To do this, we use a combination of quantitative behavioral analysis, genetics, in vivo electrophysiology, and heterologous expression of ion channels. We collaborate with physicists and other physiologist to expand our experimental research.

  • Steven Goodman

    Steven Goodman

    Professor of Epidemiology and Population Health, of Medicine (Primary Care and Population Health) and, by courtesy, of Health Policy

    Current Research and Scholarly InterestsI study issues relating to the representation and measurement of evidence in medical research and determinants of the reliability of biomedical research findings. I also do work in evidence synthesis, comparative effectiveness research, and the ethics of clinical research.

    On Partial Leave from 09/01/2024 To 08/31/2025

    Current Research and Scholarly InterestsAs an academic orthopaedic surgeon, my interests center on adult reconstructive surgery, arthritis surgery, joint replacement, biomaterials, biocompatibility, tissue engineering, mesenchymal stem cells. Collaborative clinical, applied and basic research studies are ongoing.

  • L. Henry Goodnough, MD, PhD

    L. Henry Goodnough, MD, PhD

    Assistant Professor of Orthopaedic Surgery

    BioDr. Goodnough is an orthopaedic surgeon who is fellowship-trained in orthopaedic traumatology. This specialty is dedicated to the care of patients with complex injuries to the body’s bones, joints, or tissues.

    Dr. Goodnough is a clinical instructor of orthopaedic surgery. He also holds a PhD degree, and his doctoral research focused on genetic mechanisms of early bone development.

    For each patient, he develops a personalized plan of care. His goals are to treat the patient’s injury, restore function, and help promote the best possible quality of life. His clinical interests include nonunions, periarticular fractures, fractures of the pelvis and acetabulum, and infections.

    Dr. Goodnough has conducted research on the role of skeletal stem cells in fracture healing. He also has investigated how cells function in fractures that have failed to heal (“nonunions”).

    He has co-authored articles on his research discoveries in the Journal of the American Academy of Orthopaedic Surgery, Journal of Orthopaedic Trauma, Journal of Bone and Mineral Research, and elsewhere. Topics include advances in surgical technique and technology.

    He also has contributed to chapters in the textbooks Surgery of the Hip, Skeletal Trauma of the Upper Extremity, and Operative Techniques in Orthopedic Trauma.

    Dr. Goodnough has presented the findings of his research at numerous national and regional conferences. They include meetings of the Orthopaedic Trauma Association, American Academy of Orthopaedic Surgeons, and Western Orthopaedic Association. Topics have included the effects of non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs on skeletal stem cells in fractures.

    Dr. Goodnough is a member of the American Academy of Orthopaedic Surgeons, Orthopaedic Trauma Association, and AO, the global network of doctors dedicated to the surgical treatment of trauma and musculoskeletal disorders.
