Victor G. Carrión
John A. Turner Endowed Professor for Child and Adolescent Psychiatry
Current Research and Scholarly InterestsExamines the interplay between brain development and stress vulnerability via a multi-method approach that includes psychophysiology, neuroimaging, neuroendocrinology and phenomenology. Treatment development that focuses on individual and community-based interventions for stress related conditions in children and adolescents that experience traumatic stress.

Thomas Caruso
Clinical Professor, Anesthesiology, Perioperative and Pain Medicine
Current Research and Scholarly InterestsMy research pursuits are focused on system based improvement projects. At Lucile Packard Children's Hospital Stanford, I use system based approaches to improve the quality of care patients receive in the perioperative area and in the ICUs, with a focus on safe transitions of care. Through the Department of Graduate Medical Education at Stanford School of Medicine, I advise residency and fellowship programs on evidence based methods to improve their programs, with a focus on mentorship.

Brendan Carvalho
Professor of Anesthesiology, Perioperative and Pain Medicine (Obstetrics) and, by courtesy, of Obstetrics and Gynecology (Maternal Fetal Medicine)
Current Research and Scholarly InterestsMy main research interest is in clinical and translational research related to cesarean delivery and labor analgesia as well as maternal-fetal pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics drug modeling.

Alma-Martina Cepika
Instructor, Pediatrics - Stem Cell Transplantation
Research Asst., Pediatrics - Hematology/OncologyCurrent Role at StanfordAs an Instructor at Stanford, working in the laboratory of cell and gene therapy pioneer Dr. Maria Grazia Roncarolo, Dr. Cepika co-led an acute myeloid leukemia (AML) project. She designed an RNA-sequencing-based "interactomics" assay, identifying CD200 overexpression and ICAM1 deficiency as mechanisms of AML resistance to T-cell killing, correlating with poor patient survival. Currently, she investigates regulatory T cell (Treg) biology and Treg subsets in health and disease. She has identified the mechanisms of suppression and long-term in vivo persistence of alloantigen-specific type 1 regulatory T (Tr1) cells, and is the lead scientist of the ongoing phase I/Ib clinical trial (ClinicalTrials.gov ID NCT04640987), testing these Tr1 cells as a therapy in leukemia patients undergoing allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation. Finally, her recent single-cell transcriptomic and epigenomic analyses identified key transcriptional regulators of human Tr1 cells and Tr1-like cells in human tumors.

Anne Lynn S. Chang, MD
Professor of Dermatology
Current Research and Scholarly InterestsMy two main research interests are:
1) To better understand and treat patients with aggressive basal and squamous cell carcinomas
2) To better understand the genetic and epigenetic mechanisms of healthy human skin aging and to translate these insights into better care of skin diseases enriched in older patients, particularly skin cancer and rosacea -
Howard Y. Chang, MD, PhD
Virginia and D. K. Ludwig Professor of Cancer Research, Professor of Genetics and, by courtesy, of Pathology
On Leave from 12/16/2024 To 12/15/2026Current Research and Scholarly InterestsOur research is focused on how the activities of hundreds or even thousands of genes (gene parties) are coordinated to achieve biological meaning. We have pioneered methods to predict, dissect, and control large-scale gene regulatory programs; these methods have provided insights into human development, cancer, and aging.
