Christine E. Gould
Clinical Professor, Psychiatry and Behavioral Sciences
BioDr. Gould received her Ph.D in psychology from West Virginia University. She completed her internship at VA Palo Alto Health Care System and an Advanced Fellowship in Geriatrics at the GRECC. Dr. Gould is board certified in geropsychology. Her research program focuses on increasing older adults' access to mental health care. Her research has included development and testing of tailored, self-directed mental health interventions in older adults, including a video-delivered progressive muscle relaxation program with telephone coaching support in reducing anxiety and improving functioning and a digital mental health intervention for depression. She also works to help older adults learn how to use technology through qualitative research, development of educational materials, and coaching interventions. Her most recent work examines telehealth models of geriatric mental health care in older Veterans. Dr. Gould has an active interest in training future geriatric mental health clinicians and researchers. She provides mentorship in the following areas: geriatric mental health interventions, technology-delivered interventions for older adults, telehealth models of care, program evaluation/quality improvement, and mixed methods research approaches.

Alpana Gowda
Clinical Assistant Professor, Anesthesiology, Perioperative and Pain Medicine
BioDr. Alpana Gowda is a clinical assistant professor in the Division of Pain Medicine at Stanford, where she has cared for patients since 2007. Her clinical practice focuses on the diagnosis and treatment of complex pain conditions, with particular expertise in musculoskeletal pain and electrodiagnostic (EMG) testing.
Dr. Gowda is passionate about helping patients understand the source of their pain—especially when the diagnosis feels unclear or elusive. She emphasizes that chronic pain is a multifaceted condition that can arise from the bones, muscles, ligaments, nerves, or brain, and works with each patient to develop a plan that addresses their unique experience of pain.
In addition to her clinical work, Dr. Gowda teaches Stanford pain medicine fellows and lectures on topics including pain mechanisms, musculoskeletal medicine, and the challenges of diagnosing chronic pain. -
Neelam Goyal, MD
Clinical Professor, Adult Neurology
Current Research and Scholarly InterestsDr. Goyal's research interests involve monitoring and managing the short and long-term toxicity of immunosuppressive agents used in the treatment of immune-mediated neuromuscular disorders. She is actively involved in a grant-supported project investigating steroid toxicity in patients with myasthenia gravis.
She also serves as the Wellbeing Co-Director for the Neurology Department, working on a grant-supported project aimed at mitigating the adverse impact of work on personal relationships. -
Or Gozani
Dr. Morris Herzstein Professor
Current Research and Scholarly InterestsWe study the molecular mechanisms by which chromatin-signaling networks effect nuclear and epigenetic programs, and how dysregulation of these pathways leads to disease. Our work centers on the biology of lysine methylation, a principal chromatin-regulatory mechanism that directs epigenetic processes. We study how lysine methylation events are generated, sensed, and transduced, and how these chemical marks integrate with other nuclear signaling systems to govern diverse cellular functions.

Sally Graglia
Clinical Associate Professor, Emergency Medicine
BioDr. Graglia, the youngest of four in an immigrant family, grew up in Southern California. Considering veterinary medicine, journalism, architecture, and Disney animation, Dr. Graglia ‘discovered people’ during a summer in undergrad working in Ethiopia, decided on medicine as her path forward, and has never looked back.
A UC child, she completed her undergraduate studies at UC Berkeley, medical school at UC Davis, and residency at UCSF with deviations to the Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health for a Masters of Public Health and Massachusetts General Hospital (MGH) for fellowship in Emergency Ultrasound.
Having worked, learned, and/or taught throughout Africa, Europe and Eastern Europe, and Central and South America, her three pillars continue to be point-of-care ultrasound (POCUS), education, and global health with an unending drive to serve the underserved.
Outside of work, Dr. Graglia enjoys her growing family, yoga, hiking, being outside, and exploring - new cultures, places, and languages. -
Laura Graham
Other Teaching Staff-Hourly, Surgery
BioI am an epidemiologist and health services researcher with nearly 20 years of experience in surgical outcomes research. My work focuses on improving healthcare delivery and outcomes for Veterans and other vulnerable populations, particularly those who are older or medically complex. Using large administrative datasets from the Veterans Health Administration (VA), I study surgical processes and outcomes to inform system-level improvements.
With postdoctoral training in health economics and implementation science, I bring expertise in causal inference methodology and artificial intelligence, particularly the use of natural language processing (NLP). I apply these methods to extract insights from unstructured clinical data and to strengthen causal analyses in complex healthcare datasets. These approaches allow me to address research questions that were previously difficult to study with standard empirical approaches.
As a collaborative leader, I have mentored junior investigators and worked across academic and industry sectors to advance health services research. My goal is to translate evidence into practice, ultimately improving the quality of surgical care for Veterans. -
