Rose Heald
Masters Student in Translational Research and Applied Medicine, admitted Autumn 2025
BioAs a Master’s student in Translational Research and Applied Medicine at Stanford Medicine, I’m passionate about bridging the gap between scientific discovery and real-world clinical impact. My career interests lie at the intersection of science and business, with a focus on advancing the development and implementation of novel therapeutics—particularly in the areas of genetics, rare disease, and neurodegenerative diseases.
I bring experience in clinical research, including work on the BabySeq Project, a pioneering study of genomic newborn screening (gNBS). This experience sparked my ongoing interest in how genomic technologies can be implemented to identify actionable health risks early in life. I continue to contribute to this field through my involvement with the International Consortium on Newborn Sequencing (ICoNS), a global initiative advancing gNBS research. -
Anna Howley
Ph.D. Student in Immunology, admitted Autumn 2024
BioAnia Howley is an Immunology PhD student. She received her BS in Biology from College of the Holy Cross in 2022, where she investigated the function of APOBEC3G variants in the context of HIV infection. After completing her degree, she joined the Wyss Institute for Biologically Inspired Engineering at Harvard University. Using an organ-on-chip model, she studied the effects of radiation-induced injury on human bone marrow and developed an in-vitro model of Shwachman Diamond Syndrome using shRNA-based knockdown in primary CD34+ progenitor cells.
