Isaac Longobardi
MD Student with Scholarly Concentration in Clinical Research, expected graduation Spring 2030
Stanford Graduate Student Employee, Medicine - Primary Care and Population HealthBioIsaac Longobardi, from Brooklyn, New York, is pursuing an MD at Stanford School of Medicine. He received his bachelor’s degree in social anthropology from Harvard College. Isaac aspires to transform long-term care services and delivery models for individuals with frailty, chronic illness, and mental and behavioral health conditions and their communities. Between 2022 and 2025, Isaac helped to launch and directed the Moving Forward Nursing Home Quality Coalition—a representative group of nursing home stakeholders working to advance recommendations from “The National Imperative to Improve Nursing Home Quality,” a landmark 2022 report by the National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine. Prior to that, he piloted multigenerational living while working as a volunteer youth and community engagement program coordinator at Hebrew SeniorLife, a Boston-based elder services nonprofit. Isaac’s speaking and writing on aging and long-term care include award-winning undergraduate research, a Substack, co-authored health policy articles, and conference presentations.

Junjie Lu
Ph.D. Student in Epidemiology and Clinical Research, admitted Autumn 2023
BioJunjie's research is centered on the social determinants of minority health, epidemiological methods, and clinical effectiveness. He is deeply committed to understanding the health disparities faced by minority populations. His clinical background helps bridge the gap between research and practical application, aiming to improve healthcare outcomes in real-world settings.
Junjie Lu earned a Master of Public Health degree from the Harvard T.H. Chan School of Public Health, where he concentrated on Health and Social Behavior. He also holds an MBBS and an MS from Shanghai University of Traditional Chinese Medicine. Junjie gained practical experience as an intern doctor at a university hospital for two years, during which he led a pilot randomized controlled trial on the effects of acupuncture on depressive symptoms. -
Kyrus Mama
Ph.D. Student in Neurosciences, admitted Autumn 2022
Current Research and Scholarly InterestsI study how dendrites distinguish the order of synaptic inputs. I have developed a biophysical theory in which only ordered inputs advance a voltage plateau along a dendrite, and am developing combined voltage imaging and glutamate uncaging experiments to test it. My broader interests include neural sequence processing, spiking neural networks, and how dendritic mechanisms can inform artificial intelligence and neuromorphic computing.

Jordi Martinez
Ph.D. Student in Neurosciences, admitted Autumn 2025
BioI am a second-year graduate student advised by Dr. Anthony Ricci, currently studying how membranes can modulate mechanosensitive ion channel kinetics. My research trajectory has been diverse, starting with human neuroimaging using diffusion-weighted scans of clinical populations, transitioning to the molecular biology of oligodendrocyte myelination, and now moving into the biophysics and electrophysiology of audition.

Siavash Moghadami
Ph.D. Student in Chemical and Systems Biology, admitted Summer 2022
BioSiavash is a Ph.D. student in the Department of Chemical and Systems Biology at Stanford University School of Medicine, where he is advised by Professor Carolyn Bertozzi. His research focuses on the chemical biology of human aging, resilience, and homeostasis.
Before Stanford, Siavash earned his B.S./M.S. in Biochemistry and Chemical Biology from the University of California, San Diego, graduating summa cum laude with the highest departmental distinction and honors.
An immigrant pursuing the American dream, Siavash is deeply grateful to the United States for giving him a new home and a path to higher education and scientific discovery. He sees his research on aging as a way to give back, honoring the opportunities he found here while helping protect the health and independence of his own loved ones and others.
