Niloufar Hosseinalipour
Affiliate, School of Medicine - Biomedical Ethics
BioNiloufar joined the French literature graduate program at the University of Minnesota in Fall 2023, completed her M.A. in June 2025, and is now pursuing her PhD. At Stanford, she participates in the Storytelling and Medicine program. Her research takes a historiographical approach to the intersections of French and Francophone literary traditions, the history of medicine, feminist thought, and postcolonial theory. She is particularly interested in how literary and medical discourses have collaborated in the pathologization of racialized and gendered bodies, and how these histories continue to shape contemporary understandings of illness and subjectivity. Drawing on thinkers such as Gayatri Spivak, Michel Foucault, and Georges Canguilhem, her work explores questions of representation, translation, and epistemic violence, as well as the ways literature both exposes and conceals the voices of marginalized subjects. Her interest in these issues is grounded in broader concerns about psychiatry’s political responsibility, the ethical stakes of diagnosis, and the role of narrative in mediating suffering.

Fellow in Medicine - Med/Pulmonary, Allergy & Critical Care MedicineBioCurrent combined adult and pediatric critical care fellow physician interested in medical education, curriculum design, and health services for adolescent and young adults with childhood-onset chronic conditions and medical complexity.
Most recently, I pursued my internal medicine and pediatrics (MedPeds) residency, chief residency and a medical education fellowship at the University of Illinois in Chicago. During this time, I helped implement our new X+Y resident schedule, created a multidisciplinary medical education track for residents, revamped curricula on resident mistreatment and self-advocacy, and worked with both the pediatric and adult critical care teams to develop resuscitation simulation bootcamps. My academic and institutional service interests revolved around the evolution of expertise and belonging over the course of training, particularly as it pertains to critical care resuscitation, medical educators in training, and underrepresented groups in medicine.
