Amy Fan
Research Asst - Graduate, Medicine - Med/Hematology
BioI am currently a postdoctoral fellow with Dr. Max Krummel at UCSF studying antigen uptake and transfer. As of September 2023, I am a co-organizer for Black in Immuno.
I completed my PhD in Immunology with Dr. Ravi Majeti at Stanford University, where I investigated the role of inflammation in acute myeloid leukemia progression in the context of inherited blood disorders and as it relates to chemotherapy resistance and disease relapse. Prior to being in the San Francisco Bay Area, I attended school and worked in Cambridge, MA. I received my B.S. in biology with a minor in Asian diaspora studies from MIT, where I spent the majority of my time studying the behavior of metastasizing cancer cells and the global Chinese diaspora. After graduating in 2015, I worked on untangling host-pathogen biology using single-cell RNA-Seq at the Broad Institute.

Jason Fries
Research Engineer, Med/BMIR
Current Role at StanfordI'm currently working as a staff research scientist in the Shah Lab and research scientist at Snorkel AI. My interests fall in the intersection of computer science and medical informatics. My research interests include:
• Machine learning with limited labeled data, e.g., weak supervision, self-supervision, and few-shot learning.
• Multimodal learning, e.g., combining text, imaging, video and electronic health record data for improving clinical outcome prediction
• Human-in-the-loop machine learning systems.
• Knowledge graphs and their use in improving representation learning -
