Isabella Chu
Associate Director, Data Core, Center for Population Health Sciences
BioI have been with the Stanford School of Medicine since 2001. I received my MPH in Public Health from UC Berkeley in 2011 and joined The Stanford Center for Population Health Sciences (PHS) in 2016. My research interests focus on social and environmental determinants of health, particularly how the built environment, especially housing and transportation policy promotes equitable access to the economy, education and other opportunities.
I am the Associate Director of the Data Core at PHS. The PHS Data Core specializes in hosting large, rich, high risk data which are used by hundreds of researchers to answer questions in precision and population health. My primary responsibilities include overseeing governance and regulatory matters, data security, privacy and ethics and collaboration with the team of research scientists and engineers who have built the PHS Data Core platform. This platform and model have been replicated in several universities throughout the United States.
Prior to joining PHS I initiated the Stanford Research Registry (SRR) which grew to over 4,000 members within two years and greatly facilitated research participation for both individuals with chronic disease as well as healthy controls in clinical trials and qualitative research. The SRR served as the foundation for the Patient Engagement Portal initiative which allows for bi-directional communication with the entire Stanford patient population and the general public for the purposes of recruitment for research, reporting research findings and allowing research participants to better understand the impacts of their service on the advancement of science. -
Paul Danzhe Chu
Graduate Visiting Researcher Student, Electrical Engineering
Stanford Student Employee, Medicine - Med/Gastroenterology and HepatologyBioPaul is currently a Visiting Student Researcher at Stanford University in the Electrical Engineering Department Lab, focusing on Deep Learning and AI Optimization since September 2023.
His academic and research interests lie primarily in Natural Language Processing (NLP), Data Analysis Visualization, and he is keen on diving deeper into Large Language Models (LLMs) in the future.
His work at Stanford involves collaborating with Prof. Mert Pilanci lab members to explore innovative solutions in AI, particularly in NLP and AI Optimization. By engaging in research at Stanford, Paul aspires to contribute to the advancement of AI technologies, in understanding and optimizing AI systems for practical applications.
Prior to joining Stanford, His journey in engineering began in France, where he embarked on a preparatory class in 2019, before securing his "Diplôme d'Ingénieur" from ISEP in Paris, in 2024. -

Pasqualina Colella
Sr Res Scientist-Basic Life, Pediatrics - Genetics
BioDr. Pasqualina Colella is a scientist with extensive expertise in cell therapy and gene therapy approaches for the treatment of inherited diseases. She is currently Research Scientist at Stanford University, where she is developing innovative cell therapy approaches to address neuropathic lysosomal storage diseases (LSDs) using hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) and genome editing.
Dr. Colella received her summa cum laude Bachelor of Science degree in Biology from the University of Naples Federico II (Italy) and her PhD in Human Genetics from The Open University (UK) at the Telethon Institute of Genetics and Medicine (TIGEM, Italy). During her PhD, she focused on investigating AAV gene therapy for inherited blindness and developed novel strategies to effectively express large (> 5 kb) genes in the retina for treating Stargardt disease and Usher Syndrome type I B, both of which cause untreatable forms of blindness.
After the PhD, Dr. Colella secured prestigious Postdoctoral fellowships from the Marie Skłodowska-Curie Actions (EU) and Genethon (France). As Postdoc she developed innovative in vivo AAV gene therapy approaches based on liver gene transfer or multi-tissue gene expression to target the multi-organ manifestations of Pompe disease, a LSD that presents with neuromuscular impairment.
Dr. Colella is committed to researching innovative ways to combat genetic diseases and making a positive impact on the lives of patients. -
