Jeff Nirschl
Instructor, Pathology
BioJeff Nirschl, M.D., Ph.D. is an Instructor in Pathology at Stanford University, Stanford, CA with clinical expertise in Neuropathology. He completed his Ph.D. in Neuroscience at the University of Pennsylvania under the supervision of Dr. Erika Holzbaur. During his thesis research, he investigated axonal transport and genetic forms of parkinsonism. He also developed computational image analysis workflows for fluorescence microscopy and digital pathology. His research interests include molecular motors and the neuronal cytoskeleton, the regulation of axonal transport in neurodegeneration, digital pathology, and quantitative image analysis using machine learning.

Masataka Nishiga
Instructor, Cardiovascular Institute
BioDr. Nishiga is an Instructor at the Stanford Cardiovascular Institute. As a physician-scientist, he focuses on unraveling the mechanisms of cardiovascular diseases and developing innovative treatments. His research path was sparked by firsthand experiences with heart failure patients during his clinical practice, where he recognized the urgent need for more effective treatments. After completing his cardiology fellowship in Japan, he pursued a Ph.D. at Kyoto University, focusing on the role of microRNAs and non-coding RNAs in heart failure, cardiac fibrosis, and atherosclerosis. Currently at Stanford and under the guidance of Dr. Joseph Wu, Dr. Nishiga's postdoctoral research leverages iPSCs and CRISPR technology. His primary research areas include the cardiac impacts of cancer therapies, the cardiovascular effects of COVID-19, and the influence of marijuana use on vascular inflammation.

Seiji Nishino
Professor (Research) of Psychiatry & Behavioral Sciences, Emeritus
Current Research and Scholarly InterestsThe research focus of the Sleep and Circadian Neurobiology (SCN) Laboratory is the study of the sleep and circadian physiology using various animal models. A portion of the research is carried out using rodent models of narcolepsy and circadian rhythm sleep disorders. The laboratory also carries out pharmacological studies aiming to develop new treatments for these sleep disorders.
