Jennifer Ni
Adjunct Clinical Assistant Professor, Pediatrics - Endocrinology and Diabetes
BioI grew up mainly in the Bay Area of California, attending UC Berkeley for undergraduate (Go Bears!) with a major in Bioengineering. After a gap year working at a biotech start up, I traveled to the East Coast for medical school at the University of Pittsburgh, and then back to my birth state of Texas for residency at UT Southwestern. During my experiences in medical school and residency, I discovered that I enjoyed the logic of thinking through signaling pathways to understand the pathophysiology of endocrine disorders. In the future, I hope to combine my background in engineering with my passion for medicine to advance the field of endocrinology, especially in diabetes management. I am very excited to return to the Bay Area for fellowship in Pediatric Endocrinology. Outside of the hospital, I enjoy baking sweet treats, trying new restaurants, and running.

Mark Nicolls
Stanford University Professor of Pulmonary and Critical Care Medicine
Current Research and Scholarly InterestsOur lab focuses primarily on the contribution of the immune response to lung disease. We are specifically examining the contribution of inflammation to the development of vascular injury in transplantation, pulmonary hypertension and lymphedema.

Teresa Nicolson, PhD
Edward C. and Amy H. Sewall Professor
Current Research and Scholarly InterestsOur aim is to understand the molecular basis of hearing and balance. We use zebrafish as our model system, which offers distinct advantages for imaging auditory/vestibular and lateral line hair cells in intact animals. Our experiments focus on the function of deafness genes isolated from forward genetic screens and developmental aspects of sensory hair-cell activity and synaptogenesis.

Koen Nieman
Professor of Medicine (Cardiovascular Medicine) and of Radiology (CV Imaging)
Current Research and Scholarly InterestsDr Nieman investigates advanced cardiac imaging techniques. Current projects focus on the development of functional CT application for hemodynamic interpretation of coronary artery disease, and the clinical validation of cardiac CT in the management of patients with ischemic heart disease.
