Vasiliki Bikia
Postdoctoral Scholar, Biomedical Informatics
BioDr. Vasiliki Bikia is a postdoctoral researcher at the Byers Center for Biodesign, Stanford. She received her Advanced Diploma degree in Electrical and Computer Engineering from the Aristotle University of Thessaloniki (AUTH), Greece, in 2017, and her Ph.D. degree in Biomedical Engineering from the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology of Lausanne (EPFL), Switzerland, in 2021. Her Ph.D. research addressed the clinical need for providing non-invasive tools for cardiovascular monitoring leveraging machine learning and physics-based numerical modeling. In particular, she developed and tested novel healthcare algorithms for major biomarkers including central blood pressure, stroke volume, left ventricular elastance and arterial stiffness. At Stanford, she contributes to the Stanford Spezi framework, designing and prototyping the Spezi Data Pipeline tool for enhanced digital health data accessibility and analysis workflows. Her work includes exploring smartwatches for arrhythmia detection in children and integrating physical activity data for personalized care with major pharma companies.
Her research interests include health algorithms, digital biomarkers, machine learning, non-invasive monitoring, and the application of large language models for personalized healthcare, predictive analytics, and enhancing patient-clinician interactions. -
Bernardo Bonilauri
Postdoctoral Scholar, Cardiovascular Institute
BioI am a highly motivated and devoted scientist, deeply committed to advancing our understanding of the molecular foundations of cardiovascular disease while spearheading innovative therapeutic approaches and drug discovery. As a Postdoctoral Research Fellow at the Stanford Cardiovascular Institute, under the guidance of Dr. Joseph C. Wu, I am privileged to contribute to cutting-edge research. My work spans various disciplines, including multi-omics, molecular and cellular biology, tissue engineering, biochemistry, structural biology, and state-of-the-art imaging technologies. This holistic approach and sharp critical thinking equips me to untangle the complexities of cardiac diseases and innovate novel therapeutic strategies, particularly for rare cardiac conditions such as Transthyretin Cardiac Amyloidosis.

Anna Booman
Postdoctoral Scholar, Anesthesiology, Perioperative and Pain Medicine
BioAnna Booman, PhD, MS is a Postdoctoral Scholar in the Department of Anesthesiology, Perioperative, and Pain Medicine. She is also affiliated with the Dunlevie Maternal-Fetal Medicine Center for Discovery, Innovation, and Clinical Impact. She conducts perinatal pharmacoepidemiology research through the use of large observational datasets, such as the Merative MarketScan Database, and complex epidemiologic methods.
Dr. Booman received her BS in Mathematical Biology (minor: Computer Science) from the College of William & Mary, her MS in Computational Biology & Quantitative Genetics from the Harvard T.H. Chan School of Public Health, and her PhD in Epidemiology from the Oregon Health & Science University School of Public Health. Her research has spanned many areas of perinatal epidemiology, including a focus on twin gestations, rare genetic disorders, gestational weight gain, and insurance discontinuity in pregnancy.
