Aly Elezaby
Postdoctoral Medical Fellow, Cardiovascular Medicine
Fellow in MedicineBioDr Aly Elezaby is a cardiology fellow at Stanford University School of Medicine and a postdoctoral fellow in the lab of Dr Daria Mochly-Rosen. He attended college at the University of Arizona, where he studied molecular and cellular biology with a research focus on mechanisms of genome instability. He graduated from the MD-PhD program at Boston University, with a dissertation focus on the effects of nutrient excess on mitochondrial function and oxidative stress in the heart. He completed residency training in internal medicine at Stanford as part of the Translational Investigator Program, where he has continued in fellowship training in cardiovascular medicine. His current research focus is on the signaling pathways leading to cardiac ischemia-reperfusion injury, with particular focus on the interaction between contractile proteins and mitochondria. He intends to pursue a career studying cardiac metabolism in cardiomyopathy with a clinical focus on advanced heart failure and transplant cardiology.

Koray Ertan
Postdoctoral Scholar, Radiological Sciences Laboratory
BioKoray Ertan received his BSc degree in the Department of Electrical and Electronics Engineering at Bilkent University, Turkey. He completed his PhD in the same department under the supervision of Prof. Ergin Atalar. During his PhD, he worked as a researcher at National Magnetic Resonance Research Center (UMRAM) of Turkey. His thesis study is the development of novel magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) technologies such as gradient array systems for increasing diagnostic quality of the MR images, reducing the specific absorption rate and scan time.
He joined Prof. Brian Rutt's group as a postdoctoral researcher in April 2019. Later, he was also affilated as a MINDED postdoctoral fellow in June 2019. As part of the MINDED program, his current research focuses on a system for modulating the permeability of the blood brain barrier using focused radio frequency heating generated from ultra-high field MRI transmit coils for enhanced treatment of neurodevelopmental disorders with nanomedicines. Additionally, his research interest mostly includes MRI technolgies such as RF pulse design, gradient systems, field monitoring, multi-coil gradient and shim arrays. -
Graham Erwin
Postdoctoral Scholar, Genetics
BioGraham Erwin, Ph.D., is a Stanford Cancer Institute Postdoctoral Fellow in the Department of Genetics at Stanford University. He is a molecular, chemical, and genome biologist elucidating the functional role of repetitive DNA sequences. This work is guiding the design of new therapeutics and diagnostics for human disease. Graham is currently supported by an NIH Pathway to Independence Award (K99/R00). He received his Ph.D. from the University of Wisconsin–Madison, where he was a co-inventor of synthetic transcription factors to treat devastating neurodegenerative diseases. An analog of their prototype molecule, Syn-TEF1, is currently in human clinical trials. He has published first-author papers in high-impact journals including PNAS and Science. Graham is an advocate for first-generation college students and for programs that support mental health and psychological thriving on college campuses. He is a guest lecturer in Wellness Education at Stanford.
