Andreas Loening
Assistant Professor of Radiology (Body MRI)
Current Research and Scholarly InterestsMy lab focuses on expanding the capability of MR and PET/MR as it relates to applications in body imaging. Clinical research aims include the application of new or improved MR sequences to increase the speed, robustness, and diagnostic capability of body MR. Translation research aims include exploring new MR contrast mechanisms and contrast agents, such as for the stratification of cancer within the prostate and the evaluation of the lymphatic system.

Kyle Loh
Assistant Professor of Developmental Biology (Stem Cell)
BioHow the richly varied cell-types in the human body arise from one embryonic cell is a biological marvel and mystery. We have mapped how human embryonic stem cells develop into over twenty different human cell-types. This roadmap allowed us to generate enriched populations of human liver, bone, heart and blood vessel cells in a Petri dish from embryonic stem cells. Each of these human cells could regenerate their cognate tissue upon injection into respective mouse models, with relevance to regenerative medicine. In addition to developmental and stem cell biology, we have an emerging interest in exploring deadly biosafety level 4 viruses together with our collaborators.
Kyle attended the County College of Morris and Rutgers, and received his Ph.D. from Stanford (working with Irving Weissman), with fellowships from the Hertz Foundation, National Science Foundation and Davidson Institute for Talent Development. He then continued as a Siebel Investigator, and later, as an Assistant Professor and The Anthony DiGenova Endowed Faculty Scholar at Stanford, where he is jointly appointed in the Department of Developmental Biology and Institute for Stem Cell Biology & Regenerative Medicine. Kyle is a Packard Fellow, Pew Scholar, Human Frontier Science Program Young Investigator and Baxter Foundation Faculty Scholar, and his research has been recognized by the NIH Director's Early Independence Award, Forbes 30 Under 30, Harold Weintraub Graduate Award, Hertz Foundation Thesis Prize and A*STAR Investigatorship. -
Adrienne H. Long, MD, PhD
Instructor, Pediatrics - Hematology & Oncology
BioAdrienne H. Long, MD, PhD is an Instructor and Physician-Scientist in the Division of Pediatric Hematology and Oncology at the Lucile Packard Children's Hospital, Stanford. Clinically, she completed her MD at Northwestern University, her pediatrics residency at Boston Children’s Hospital, and her oncology fellowship training at Stanford University. Dr. Long sees patients with leukemias/lymphomas, and has a clinical interest in T cell malignancies.
Dr. Long received her PhD in Microbiology/Immunology through a National Institutes of Health (NIH) – Northwestern University partnership, where she worked with Dr. Crystall Mackall to advance CAR T cell therapies. Her influential thesis work was the first to identify T cell exhaustion as a critical factor limiting efficacy of CAR therapies (Long et al., Nature Medicine, 2015). She continued her research training with Dr. Nicholas Haining at the Dana Farber Cancer Institute during residency and is currently conducting her post-doctoral research with Dr. Mark Davis at Stanford.
Dr. Long’s research interests lie at the intersection of the immune system and cancer therapies. She is currently studying how thymic selection, designed to prevent auto-immunity, may also inhibit anti-tumor immunity in children. She is also interested in how immunotherapies that have revolutionized how we treat cancer can impact the developing pediatric immune system long term. -
Jonathan Z. Long
Associate Professor of Pathology
BioDr. Jonathan Long is an Associate Professor of Pathology and an Institute Scholar of Stanford ChEM-H (Chemistry, Engineering & Medicine for Human Health). His laboratory studies signaling pathways in mammalian energy metabolism. The long-term goal of this program is to discover new molecules and pathways that can be translated into therapeutic opportunities for obesity, metabolic disease, and other age-associated chronic diseases. Work from the laboratory has been recognized by numerous awards from the Alfred P. Sloan Foundation, the National Institutes of Health, the American Diabetes Association, and the Ono Pharma Foundation. Prior to arriving to Stanford, Dr. Long completed his Ph.D. in Chemistry at Scripps Research and his postdoctoral work at Harvard Medical School.
