Stephen J. Galli, MD
Mary Hewitt Loveless, MD, Professor in the School of Medicine and Professor of Pathology and of Microbiology and Immunology
Current Research and Scholarly InterestsThe goals of Dr. Galli's laboratory are to understand the regulation of mast cell and basophil development and function, and to develop and use genetic approaches to elucidate the roles of these cells in health and disease. We study both the roles of mast cells, basophils, and IgE in normal physiology and host defense, e.g., in responses to parasites and in enhancing resistance to venoms, and also their roles in pathology, e.g., anaphylaxis, food allergy, and asthma, both in mice and humans.

Elias Roth Gerrick
Postdoctoral Scholar, Pathology
BioEli received his B.S. in Microbiology and Immunology from U.C. Irvine in 2013, where he worked in the lab of Dr. Celia Goulding. He earned his Ph.D. from Harvard University in 2018 in the lab of Dr. Sarah Fortune, where he studied post-transcriptional regulation of gene expression in Mycobacterium tuberculosis. Eli joined the Howitt lab at Stanford in the summer of 2018, where he is studying the influence of protozoan members of the microbiome on intestinal immunity.

Alin Lucian Girnita
Clinical Professor, Pathology
Current Research and Scholarly InterestsMy research interest involves the allo-immune response in transplantation, markers of antibody-mediated rejection, influence of various therapeutic protocols on desensitization and allo-immune response, structural matching and genetic polymorphism in transplantation.

Alex Gitlin
Instructor, Pathology
BioAlex Gitlin, M.D., Ph.D. is an Instructor in the Department of Pathology at Stanford University School of Medicine. Prior to Stanford, Alex received his M.D. from Weill Cornell Medicine (2017) and his Ph.D. from Rockefeller University (2016) as part of the Weill Cornell/Sloan-Kettering/Rockefeller, Tri-Institutional M.D.-Ph.D. program. During his graduate training, Alex worked on the cellular and molecular mechanisms underlying germinal center reactions and the formation of long-lived humoral immunity. His work helped elucidate the mechanisms by which CD4+ T cells induce selective clonal expansion of germinal center B cells during immune responses. Currently, Alex's clinical and research interests lie in understanding the molecular basis of inflammatory immune responses in the context of normal and genetically immunodeficient states.

Matthew Gologorsky
Research Assistant, Pathology Sponsored Projects
BioMatthew received his B.S. in Neuroscience from the University of Michigan in 2018. There, he worked in the lab of Dr. Paul Jenkins exploring the cellular and molecular mechanisms underlying bipolar disorder. After graduating from college, Matthew joined the Howitt lab at Stanford where he is currently investigating how the gut epithelium, immune system, and nervous system work cooperatively to defend against intestinal parasites.

Dita Gratzinger
Associate Professor of Pathology
Current Research and Scholarly InterestsI have research interests in the interaction of hematolymphoid neoplasia with the microenvironment. For example, I use a combination of immunohistochemistry, immunofluorescence and image analysis techniques to evaluate the mesenchymal stromal cell compartment in myelodysplastic syndrome (pre-leukemic bone marrow failure disorder). I also have interests in lymphoma vasculature and the tropism of lymphoma for specific types of vasculature.

Wei Gu
Assistant Professor of Pathology
BioWei Gu, MD, PhD, is Assistant Professor of Pathology at Stanford University was trained as a physician, engineer, and scientist. He is a leader and pioneered new technologies in cell-free DNA 'liquid biopsy' diagnostics, microfluidics, and clinical metagenomic sequencing across diverse fields, including prenatal diagnostics, infectious disease, metagenomics, oncology, CRISPR diagnostics, and COVID diagnostics. His research group seeks to maximize the diagnostic potential from this data obtained through minimally invasive or non-invasive sampling. We will engineer the necessary tools to digitize nucleic acids into useful diagnostic content. He has been awarded multiple extramural grants, including the Burroughs Wellcome Career Award, and a K08 from the National Cancer Institute. He is also a board-certified molecular and clinical pathologist and has a clinical practice within Stanford Healthcare.
