Ngan F. Huang
Associate Professor of Cardiothoracic Surgery (Cardiothoracic Surgery Research) and, by courtesy, of Chemical Engineering
Current Research and Scholarly InterestsDr. Huang's laboratory aims to understand the chemical and mechanical interactions between extracellular matrix (ECM) proteins and pluripotent stem cells that regulate vascular and myogenic differentiation. The fundamental insights of cell-matrix interactions are applied towards stem cell-based therapies with respect to improving cell survival and regenerative capacity, as well as engineered vascularized tissues for therapeutic transplantation.

Xiaojing Huang
Postdoctoral Scholar, Ophthalmology
BioXiaojing earned her Bachelor of Science in Optical Engineering, graduating cum laude, from the University of Rochester in 2018. Continuing her academic journey at the same institution, she began her graduate studies in optics in the spring of 2019. Under the supervision of Professors Julie Bentley and Alfredo Dubra, she completed her PhD in 2024. The same year, Xiaojing joined Stanford University as a postdoctoral researcher, furthering her exploration and contributions to the field of adaptive optics retinal imaging.

Andrew D. Huberman
Associate Professor of Neurobiology and, by courtesy, of Psychiatry and Behavioral Sciences
Current Research and Scholarly InterestsIn 2017, we developed a virtual reality platform to investigate the neural and autonomic mechanisms contributing to fear and anxiety. That involved capturing 360-degree videos of various fear-provoking situations in real life for in-lab VR movies, such as heights and claustrophobia, as well as unusual scenarios like swimming in open water with great white sharks. The primary objective of our VR platform is to develop new tools to help people better manage stress, anxiety and phobias in real-time, as an augment to in-clinic therapies.
In May 2018, we reported the discovery of two novel mammalian brain circuits as a Research Article published in Nature. One circuit promotes fear and anxiety-induced paralysis, while the other fosters confrontational reactions to threats. This led to ongoing research into the involvement of these brain regions in anxiety-related disorders such as phobias and generalized anxiety in humans.
In 2020, we embarked on a collaborative effort with Dr. David Spiegel's laboratory in the Stanford Department of Psychiatry and Behavioral Sciences, aimed to explore how specific respiration patterns synergize with the visual system to influence autonomic arousal and stress, and other brain states, including sleep.
In 2023, the first results of that collaboration were published as a randomized controlled trial in Cell Reports Medicine, demonstrating that specific brief patterns of deliberate respiration are particularly effective in alleviating stress and enhancing mood, and improving sleep.
In a 2021, our collaboration with Dr. Edward Chang, professor and chair of the Department of Neurological Surgery at the University of California, San Francisco (UCSF), was published in Current Biology, revealing that specific patterns of insular cortex neural activity may be linked to, and potentially predict, anxiety responses. -

John Huguenard
Professor of Neurology and Neurological Sciences (Neurology Research), of Neurosurgery (Adult Neurosurgery) and, by courtesy, of Molecular and Cellular Physiology
Current Research and Scholarly InterestsWe are interested in the neuronal mechanisms that underlie synchronous oscillatory activity in the thalamus, cortex and the massively interconnected thalamocortical system. Such oscillations are related to cognitive processes, normal sleep activities and certain forms of epilepsy. Our approach is an analysis of the discrete components (cells, synapses, microcircuits) that make up thalamic and cortical circuits, and reconstitution of components into in silico computational networks.

William Hui, MD
Clinical Assistant Professor, Medicine - Primary Care and Population Health
BioDr. Hui is a family medicine physician. He practices in the same-day clinic at Stanford Family Medicine clinic in Palo Alto and is a clinical assistant professor in the Department of Medicine, Division of Primary Care and Population Health.
He is the point-of-care ultrasound (POCUS) lead in the Division of Primary Care and Population Health. He also teaches with Global Ultrasound Institute, a community of POCUS practitioners and educators from around the world.
Dr. Hui completed fellowship training in point-of-care ultrasound at the University of Pennsylvania. He trained as a resident in family medicine at Stanford Health Care after earning his medical degree at Drexel University College of Medicine.
He has made numerous invited presentations to his peers. Topics include diagnostic and procedural use of point-of-care ultrasound.
Dr. Hui is a member of the American Academy of Family Physicians, American Institute of Ultrasound in Medicine, and Society of Teachers of Family Medicine.
He has volunteered with wilderness education and team-building programs for underprivileged youth. He also has provided translation and intake services to underserved and uninsured Chinese and Indonesian patients at a community clinic.

Wouter Huiting
Postdoctoral Scholar, Chemical and Systems Biology
BioWouter received his training at the University of Groningen, the Netherlands. Here he obtained a B.Sc.and M.Sc. in Human Movement Sciences (2008-2015), followed by a M.Sc. in Clinical and Molecular Neurosciences (2014-2016). He performed his doctoral research at the University of Groningen, obtaining his PhD degree in Molecular Cell Biology in 2021. Wouter continued his research in 2022 with a position as postdoctoral scholar at the Jarosz lab, at the department of Chemical and Systems Biology. Here he pursues his interest in the molecular forces underlying proteomic adaptation of cells and systems in development and disease. Outside of Stanford, Wouter is an avid sportsman, and likes cooking, hiking, birding, and in general loves to enjoy nature and wildlife with his wife and son.
