Zahra Azizi
Postdoctoral Scholar, Cardiovascular Medicine
BioI’m a medical doctor and clinical epidemiologist, currently working as a postdoctoral fellow at Stanford University focusing on digital health, computer science and artificial intelligence (AI) in medicine. My research goals are integration and practical application of computer science and artificial intelligence (AI) methods in medicine to produce new knowledge, deepen understanding of health-related issues, and address health inequity which ultimately aims to improve patient-care and decrease disease burden.

Adrian Matias Bacong
Postdoctoral Scholar, Cardiovascular Medicine
Current Research and Scholarly InterestsAdrian M. Bacong, PhD, MPH is a social epidemiologist by training. His research seeks to identify social and structural factors that underlie health inequities by race, ethnicity, and immigration status. Specifically, his work has explored the role of socioeconomic factors in explaining health disparities by immigrant legal status and visa type. Furthermore, Adrian is interested in the effects of immigration on health. He received a NIH F31 award (1F31MD015931-01A1) to examine factors affecting the health of Filipino migrants to the U.S. compared to Filipinos remaining in the Philippines.
Adrian has also examined the intersections of race, ethnicity, and immigration status among older adults. Finally, Adrian written upon the role of data disaggregation as a method of public health critical race praxis. Currently, Adrian is researching the role of social and policy level factors underlying health disparities among immigrants. -
Ramzi Emanuel Dudum
Postdoctoral Medical Fellow, Cardiovascular Medicine

Aly Elezaby
Postdoctoral Medical Fellow, Cardiovascular Medicine
Fellow in MedicineBioDr Aly Elezaby is a cardiology fellow at Stanford University School of Medicine and a postdoctoral fellow in the lab of Dr Daria Mochly-Rosen. He attended college at the University of Arizona, where he studied molecular and cellular biology with a research focus on mechanisms of genome instability. He graduated from the MD-PhD program at Boston University, with a dissertation focus on the effects of nutrient excess on mitochondrial function and oxidative stress in the heart. He completed residency training in internal medicine at Stanford as part of the Translational Investigator Program, where he has continued in fellowship training in cardiovascular medicine. His current research focus is on the signaling pathways leading to cardiac ischemia-reperfusion injury, with particular focus on the interaction between contractile proteins and mitochondria. He intends to pursue a career studying cardiac metabolism in cardiomyopathy with a clinical focus on advanced heart failure and transplant cardiology.

Bruna Filipa Gomes Botelho Quintas
Postdoctoral Scholar, Cardiovascular Medicine
Current Research and Scholarly InterestsThe increasing availability of very large datasets, along with recent advances in deep learning based tools for automatic extraction of cardiac traits, has led to the discovery of further common variants associated with cardiac disease. However, the genetic underpinnings of valvular heart disease remains understudied. I am interested in developing deep learning techniques to automatically extract cardiac flow information to facilitate genome-wide association studies of cardiac flow traits.
