Philipp Wesp
Postdoctoral Scholar, Radiology
BioI am a postdoctoral researcher investigating interpretable machine learning (ML) and large language model (LLM) applications in clinical radiology. My current research focuses on two complementary areas: understanding what human-interpretable concepts self-supervised vision foundation models learn through mechanistic interpretability techniques like sparse autoencoders, and developing LLM-based systems, including agentic workflows and retrieval augmented generation (RAG) architectures, that leverage unstructured hospital data to improve radiological workflows. I earned my PhD from LMU Munich, where I focused on clinically motivated machine learning applications in medical imaging in the Department of Radiology.
My work is partially funded by a Walter Benjamin Fellowship from the DFG (German Research Foundation). -
McKenzie White
Postdoctoral Scholar, Radiology
BioI work at the intersection of machine learning, medical imaging, and biomechanics. I'm committed to developing tools that bridge gaps between computational methods, musculoskeletal research, and clinical care - enabling more precise analyses, efficient workflows, and improved surgical decision-making.

Shannon White
Postdoctoral Scholar, Genetics
BioHi, I'm Shannon White. I began my postdoctoral fellowship in Michael Snyder's lab in the fall of 2020. I received my PhD from Georgetown University in Tumor Biology in Chunling Yi's lab. My graduate worked explore the signaling and metabolic vulnerabilities of NF2-mutant tumors following YAP/TAZ depletion. My postdoctoral work is exploring the epigenetic hallmarks that contribute to colon cancer progression and drug resistance. I am developing colon organoids derived from pre-cancerous polyp tissue collected from Familial Adenomatous Polyposis patients as a model system to investigate epigenetic and signaling responses to chemoprevention treatments.

Wesley Williams
Postdoctoral Scholar, Radiology
Current Research and Scholarly InterestsFirstly, a goal of mine is to fashion a novel scatter-based parameter for PET reconstruction algorithms to improve image resolution via determining a more detailed scatter/true ratio estimate via binning the photons that have scattered once, twice, and perhaps, many more times.
Secondly, AI drug discovery application towards radiotracers may quicken experimentation by determining the formulations worth trying. Moreover, it may be able to characterize efficacy (biodistribution) (self-update). -
Willemijn Witkam
Postdoctoral Scholar, Dermatology
BioI am a dedicated medical doctor from The Netherlands with a passion for research specializing in dermatology. My expertise spans epidemiology, exposome, microbiome, and genetics. During my postdoc at Stanford, I will study the associations of harmful environmental exposures (air pollutants, microplastics) on (inflammatory) dermatological diseases in the lab of Dr. Eleni Linos.
