    BioDr. Alice Huai-Yu Li is an anesthesiologist and pain management specialist at Stanford Health Care. She is also a clinical assistant professor in the Department of Anesthesiology, Perioperative and Pain Medicine, Division of Pain Management at Stanford University School of Medicine.

    Dr. Li specializes in headache and orofacial pain conditions, offering advanced, personalized care for patients with complex and often debilitating pain syndromes. Her clinical expertise spans a wide range of disorders, including temporomandibular joint dysfunction (TMD), migraine, trigeminal neuralgia, and other forms of headache and orofacial pain.

    She collaborates closely with her colleagues in dentistry, neurosurgery, otorhinolaryngology (ENT), neurology, and oral and maxillofacial surgery (OMFS) to ensure comprehensive and coordinated care. With this interdisciplinary approach, she works with each patient to help them feel better and improve their daily life. This includes creating a tailored treatment plan with healthy lifestyle modifications, prescription medications, and targeted procedures with fluoroscopic, ultrasound, and/or stimulation guidance.

    Dr. Li’s research focuses on advancing the treatment of migraine and orofacial pain. She leads studies on cutting-edge neuromodulation technologies for both migraine prevention and acute rescue, as well as ultrasound- and stimulation-guided procedures to relieve TMD symptoms. Her work also includes developing a treatment algorithm for trigeminal neuralgia and exploring the use of large language models to help clinicians diagnose complex headache and orofacial pain disorders.

    Dr. Li has authored more than a dozen peer-reviewed publications and has presented her work at national and international conferences for organizations including the American Academy of Pain Medicine, the American Society of Anesthesiologists, and the North American Neuromodulation Society.

  • Andrew A. Li, MD

    Andrew A. Li, MD

    Clinical Assistant Professor, Medicine - Gastroenterology & Hepatology

    BioDr. Li is a board-certified, fellowship-trained gastroenterologist with Stanford Health Care. He is a clinical assistant professor in the Department of Medicine, Division of Gastroenterology and Hepatology at Stanford University School of Medicine.

    A therapeutic endoscopy specialist, Dr. Li received fellowship training in gastroenterology, advanced endoscopy, and endoscopic surgery at Stanford University School of Medicine. He is board certified in internal medicine and gastroenterology.

    Dr. Li specializes in advanced endoscopic procedures. His areas of expertise include endoscopic ultrasound (EUS), endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP), enteroscopy, endoscopic mucosal resection (EMR), and endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD). He also specializes in esophageal peroral endoscopic myotomy (POEM), gastric peroral endoscopic myotomy (GPOEM), and Zenker’s diverticulum peroral endoscopic myotomy (ZPOEM).

    In addition, he treats gastrointestinal cancers, including gastric (stomach) cancer and colon cancer. He is dedicated to helping patients by integrating leading-edge research and innovations with compassionate, patient-centered clinical care.

    Dr. Li’s research interests include gastric cancer, innovations in advanced endoscopy and endoscopic surgery, and the application of artificial intelligence (AI) and other computational techniques for prevention, diagnoses, and treatments.

    Dr. Li has published articles in the World Journal of Gastrointestinal Endoscopy, Gastrointestinal Endoscopy, and Endoscopy International Open. He has presented at national and international conferences held in Las Vegas; Washington, D.C.; and Seoul, Korea. In his many presentations, he has covered topics such as the prevention of gastric cancer and prevention of post-ERCP pancreatitis.

    Dr. Li is a member of the American Society for Gastrointestinal Endoscopy, American College of Gastroenterology, American Gastroenterological Association, and American College of Physicians.

    Daniel Yuhang Li

    Instructor, Medicine - Cardiovascular Medicine

    BioI am a physician scientist in the Division of Cardiology at Stanford. My clinical interest is at the intersection of inflammation, autoimmunity and cardiovascular disease in a field called 'Cardio-Rheumatology'. Patients with rheumatologic diseases typically have an elevated cardiovascular disease risk profile along with an insidious onset. Moreover, with the ever-expanding biologic drug formulary for patients, it is important for us to characterize the cardiovascular effects of these medications. In my research, I believe that understanding how inflammatory and autoimmune mechanisms modify coronary artery disease can help us develop a novel perspective towards treating atherosclerosis beyond lipid lowering. My research goal is to advance novel therapeutics for atherosclerosis by leveraging my expertise in genetics, computational biology, and experience with diverse model organism perturbation models. My strategy employs a ‘systems’ approach, starting with human population variations at the genetic level and integrating findings across RNA, protein, and model organism studies. This comprehensive synthesis aims to grasp the overarching biological narrative, thereby facilitating the development of translational therapies that transform concepts from bench to bedside.

  • Jin Billy Li

    Jin Billy Li

    Professor of Genetics

    Current Research and Scholarly InterestsThe Li Lab is primarily interested in RNA editing mediated by ADAR enzymes. We co-discovered that the major function of RNA editing is to label endogenous dsRNAs as "self" to avoid being recognized as "non-self" by MDA5, a host innate immune dsRNA sensor, leading us to pursue therapeutic applications in cancer, autoimmune diseases, and viral infection. The other major direction of the lab is to develop technologies to harness endogenous ADAR enzymes for site-specific transcriptome engineering.

    Professor of Biochemistry

    BioDr. Li is a professor in the Biochemistry Department and ChEM-H Institute at Stanford. She is also a core investigator of the Arc Institute. Her lab works on understanding biochemical mechanisms of the immunotransmitter cGAMP and harnessing it to treat cancer and autoimmunity. She majored in chemistry at University of Science and Technology of China and graduated with a B. En in 2003. She then trained with Dr. Laura Kiessling, a pioneer in chemical biology, at University of Wisconsin-Madison and graduated with a Ph.D in chemistry in 2010. She obtained her postdoctoral training with Dr. Timothy Mitchison at Harvard Medical School, who introduced her to the field of chemical immunology. She started her lab at Stanford in 2015.
