Pourya Yarahmadi, MD
Postdoctoral Scholar, Cardiovascular Institute
BioI earned my MD from Tehran University of Medical Sciences. Currently, I am a postdoctoral researcher in Dr. Nguyen’s lab, and my main focus is on how the immune system contributes to the development of cardiovascular diseases, particularly atherosclerosis. I use cutting-edge technologies such as single-cell RNA sequencing to explore the complex interactions between immune cells and the vascular system. Outside of work, I enjoy playing soccer, working out, hiking, and spending time with friends.

An Ni Zhang
Postdoctoral Scholar, Stanford Cancer Institute
BioAnni obtained her Ph.D. in Dr. James Johnson and Dr. Janel Kopp's labs at the University of British Columbia. Her Ph.D. work showed that hyperinsulinemia contributes to pancreatic cancer development. Her work also showed that insulin directly acted via the insulin receptors in pancreatic acinar cells to increase digestive enzyme production, thereby generating an inflammatory condition that accelerates neoplastic transformation. She is now working at Diehn lab to investigate the mechanisms of KEAP1 mutation-induced immunotherapy resistance in lung cancer.
