(Alex) Alexandra Ward
Clinical Research Coordinator Associate, Pediatrics - Endocrinology
Bio(Alex) Alexandra Ward is a Clinical Research Coordinator in the Department of Pediatric Endocrinology at Stanford University School of Medicine. She works on a broad portfolio of clinical research studies focused on improving health outcomes for children and adolescents through patient-centered, technology-enabled, and equity-focused approaches. In her role, she coordinates industry-sponsored and investigator-initiated studies, oversees participant recruitment and study operations, manages regulatory compliance, and contributes to qualitative and quantitative data analysis, scientific writing, and dissemination of research findings.
Alexandra earned her Bachelor of Arts in Sociology with a focus on Pre-Medical Studies from the University of California, Berkeley. Her academic and research interests center on epidemiology, population health, and the social and structural factors that influence health across the lifespan. She is particularly interested in health equity, social determinants of health, implementation science, digital health technologies, aging, and the use of artificial intelligence to improve healthcare delivery and reduce disparities among underserved populations.
Her research experience spans pediatric endocrinology, chronic disease management, epidemiology, mixed-methods research, patient-reported outcomes, and community-engaged research. She has contributed to multiple peer-reviewed publications and scientific presentations and has collaborated on studies examining diabetes technology, healthcare access, quality of life, and interventions designed to improve health outcomes for diverse patient populations.
Alexandra plans to pursue a PhD in Epidemiology, where she hopes to develop innovative, data-driven approaches to address complex public health challenges and advance equitable healthcare through interdisciplinary research. -
Ronald D. Watkins
Senior Research Engineer, Rad/Radiological Sciences Laboratory
Current Role at StanfordMy current position is Senior Research Associate in the Radiological Sciences Laboratory and the Molecular Imaging Laboratory in the Department of Radiology at Stanford School of Medicine. I provide hardware, systems, and general technical support for a large group of Faculty members and many students and post docs in the development of advanced medical imaging, metabolic imaging and image-guided interventions. My training background is primarily in RF and electrical engineering. I have spent more than 25 years in the commercial diagnostic imaging industry. Most of the projects I am currently working on involve instrumentation for metabolic imaging using magnetic deuterium imaging. I am also involved in the development of Hybrid systems that combine Positron Emission Tomography and Magnetic Resonance imaging. Other projects I am involved in use focused ultrasound for neuro-stimulation or drug delivery via blood brain barrier. I also provide RF coil design and support for small animal imaging and various research studies. I have ongoing collaborations with many other medical research institutes and Universities around the world. I currently have 45 issued US patents, and 100 pear reviewed publications.
