Jayme Koltsov, PhD
Senior Biostatistician, Orthopaedic Surgery
BioDr. Koltsov is an expert in clinical and translational orthopaedic research design and biostatistics with a unique and valuable combination of skill-sets. Her foundation from her Ph.D. in orthopaedic biomechanics provides an understanding of the underlying anatomy, pathology, and mechanics not typical for a biostatistician. This background empowers effective and efficient communication with clinicians and scientists and enables Dr. Koltsov to develop study designs and analytic strategies exceptionally tailored to the physical orthopaedic problems under investigation.
Dr. Koltsov has an extensive knowledge base in research methodology and statistical methods honed from her PhD onward, including univariate statistics (parametric, non-parametric, and categorical); survival analysis (Kaplan Meier and Cox proportional hazards); multivariable and longitudinal data analyses (logistic regression, generalized linear modeling, linear mixed models, hierarchical and repeated measures modeling, and generalized estimating equations,); quasi-experimental techniques for reducing bias (propensity score matching and inverse probability treatment weighting); patient reported outcome design and validation; diagnostic test validation; and healthcare economic analysis. Over the past 11 years, Dr. Koltsov has developed a successful track record of collaborations with clinicians and scientists to lead and facilitate high-quality clinical, translational, and health services research spanning multiple orthopaedic disciplines, including spine, arthroplasty, foot and ankle, upper extremity, trauma, sports medicine, pediatrics, rheumatology, rehabilitation, and biomechanics. -

Daniel Kraft, MD
Adjunct Professor, Med/Hospital Medicine
BioDaniel Kraft is a Stanford and Harvard trained physician-scientist, inventor, and entrepreneur with more than 25 years of experience across clinical practice, biomedical research, and healthcare innovation. His current work follows how artificial intelligence, continuous data, and converging technologies are reshaping prevention, diagnosis, therapy, and the delivery of care.
He earned his bachelor's degree in biochemistry from Brown University and his medical degree from Stanford University School of Medicine, completed the Harvard Combined Residency in Internal Medicine and Pediatrics, and went on to fellowships in hematology, oncology, and bone marrow transplantation at Stanford and a postdoctoral research fellowship in the laboratory of Irving L. Weissman. He served on clinical faculty at UCSF in pediatric bone marrow transplantation, and as NIH-funded research faculty at Stanford.
His academic research has spanned stem cell biology and regenerative medicine, stem cell derived immunotherapies for cancer, and the bioengineering of human T-cell differentiation, with work published in journals including Nature and Science. He holds medical device, immunology, and stem cell related patents, and is the inventor of the MarrowMiner, an FDA-cleared device for minimally invasive bone marrow harvesting.
Dr. Kraft is the Founder and Chair of NextMed Health (formerly Exponential Medicine), a program and community convening clinicians, technologists, investors, and regulators around the future of medicine, Founder of Digital.Health, a curated platform for evaluating digital health and AI solutions, and Co-Founder and General Partner of Continuum Health Ventures, an early stage fund focused on democratizing health and improving healthspan. He was founding faculty at Singularity University, where he chaired its medicine program.
His current interests center on how foundation models and agentic AI, continuous physiologic data from wearables and connected devices, multi-omics, and low cost diagnostics are moving medicine from episodic and reactive care toward the continuous, personalized, and proactive, and on the gap between what these technologies can demonstrate and what clinical practice, regulation, and reimbursement will adopt. A six time TED and TEDMED speaker who has keynoted on five continents, he advises health systems, biopharma boards, and technology companies on AI and digital health strategy, and is a member of the inaugural class of the Aspen Institute Health Innovators Fellowship and of the Kauffman Fellows Society. -

Miri Krupkin
Basic Life Research Scientist, Structural Biology
BioMy background is deeply rooted in structural biology and biochemistry of proteins and RNA. My current research focuses on understanding the regulatory role of RNA structures in HIV infection. To this end, I am focusing on revealing the conformational landscape of viral RNA during reverse transcription. I am also devoted to promoting science education and outreach.

Karteek Kunala
Research Engineer, Ophthalmology Research/Clinical Trials
BioMy current interests are in development of design and instrumentation of pre-clinical vision devices, to conduct non-invasive in vivo retinal imaging. I studied Physics with a concentration in optics during my time at University of Hyderabad, India and received a bachelors and masters degree in 2014. I then moved to USA to continue working in the field of optics at University of North Carolina at Charlotte to pursue my PhD, working on nanofabrication of broadband anti-reflective structures. My interest in vision science started with my job at University of Rochester as a research scientist, where I was involved in developing optical imaging tools using adaptive optics to study retinal diseases. My work was focused on development of fluorescence lifetime imaging techniques in humans and two photon fluorescence microscopy in mouse.

Phillip Kyriakakis
Temp - Non-Exempt, Psychiatry and Behavioral Sciences - Child & Adolescent Psychiatry and Child Development
BioPhillip Kyriakakis, Ph.D. is a Senior Research Scientist in the Bioengineering Department at Stanford University in the Wu Tsai Institute for Neuroscience. Dr. Kyriakakis did his undergraduate work in Biochemistry at UMass Boston, where he also worked in Dr. Alexey Veraksa's developmental biology lab and started to develop PhyB optogenetics in animal cells (2008). Dr. Kyriakakis continued his education at UC San Diego in the Division of Biological Sciences. There, he studied cellular programming and metabolism to obtain his degree with a specialization in Multiscale Biology. Dr. Kyriakakis did his postdoctoral work in the Bioengineering Department at UC San Diego with Todd Coleman, continuing the development of optogenetic tools and related technologies. In 2021 Dr. Kyriakakis moved to his Senior Research Scientist role at Stanford University in the Bioengineering Department at the Wu Tsai Institute for Neurosciences.

Linda (Yu-Ling) Lan
Basic Life Res Scientist, Genetics
BioLinda Lan, DVM, PhD is a postdoctoral fellow in the Snyder Lab. Her research focuses on understanding long-term illness post-acute infections by using a combination of different types of data (multi-omics) and wearable technologies. Currently, Linda is working on three projects.
The first project involves studying the shared mechanisms of long COVID, ME/CFS, and PTLDS using smartwatches and micro-sampling. The second project involves examining the role of autoantibodies in long COVID patients and COVID vaccine side effects. The third project involves exploring the changes in the molecular and physiological responses of astronauts during short space flights using multi-omics and wearable devices.
Linda previously conducted her PhD research at the University of Chicago, where she studied memory B cell responses to a chimeric-based universal influenza virus vaccine candidate. In her leisure time, she enjoys running, hiking, and listening to audiobooks.
