Brian A. Hargreaves
Professor of Radiology (Radiological Sciences Laboratory) and, by courtesy, of Electrical Engineering and of Bioengineering
Current Research and Scholarly InterestsI am interested in magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) applications and augmented reality applications in medicine. These include abdominal, breast and musculoskeletal imaging, which require development of faster, quantitative, and more efficient MRI methods that provide improved diagnostic contrast compared with current methods. My work includes novel excitation schemes, efficient imaging methods and reconstruction tools and augmented reality in medicine.

Prashant Hariharan
Postdoctoral Scholar, Neurosurgery
BioPrashant Hariharan is a biomedical engineer specializing in the design of "fit-for-purpose" in vitro models to study neurological disorders. He earned his B.E. from the University of Mumbai, an M.S. from the University of Texas at Arlington, an M.Eng. from Cornell University and a PhD from Wayne State University. His doctoral work with Dr. Carolyn A. Harris focused on developing an "organ-chip" model of the choroid plexus to study how cerebrospinal fluid secretion is affected by hydrocephalus. As a postdoctoral scholar in the Fame lab, Prashant is adding new layers of physiological complexity to his previous model to investigate how the body’s circadian clock regulates choroid plexus-driven cerebrospinal fluid production and composition. This work aspires to deliver model-driven insights that can be translated into CSF-centric therapies and ultimately advance the pursuit of precision medicine for brain health.

Stephanie Harman
Clinical Professor, Medicine - Primary Care and Population Health
BioDr. Stephanie Harman is a palliative care physician and Clinical Professor of Medicine. She graduated from Case Western Reserve University School of Medicine and went on to complete a residency in Internal Medicine at Stanford and a Palliative Care fellowship at the Palo Alto VA/Stanford program. She then joined the faculty at Stanford. She co-founded the Palliative Care Program at Stanford Health Care in 2007 and served as Clinical Chief of the Section of Palliative Care in the Division of Primary Care and Population Health from 2016 - 2022. She was the inaugural Associate Chair for Women in Medicine for the Department of Medicine and is now the Associate Chair for Faculty Engagement and Leadership Development. She is Director of the Stanford Leadership Development Program, a joint program between Stanford Health Care and the School of Medicine for emerging leaders. A 2017 Cambia Health Foundation Sojourns Scholar Leader Awardee, she has a passion for leadership development and faculty engagement; she has built multiple programs to support the careers of women leaders in academic medicine, both locally and nationally. Her other professional interests include clinical ethics and serious illness communication.

Keren Haroush
Assistant Professor of Neurobiology
Current Research and Scholarly InterestsOur laboratory studies the mechanisms by which highly complex behaviors are mediated at the neuronal level, mainly focusing on the example of dynamic social interactions and the neural circuits that drive them. From dyadic interactions to group dynamics and collective decision making, the lab seeks a mechanistic understanding for the fundamental building blocks of societies, such as cooperation, empathy, fairness and reciprocity.

Anthony Harris
Postdoctoral Scholar, Genetics
BioAnthony Harris is a postdoctoral fellow in the Department of Genetics at Stanford School of Medicine, where he investigates the organization and function of the genome during cellular development. His research focuses on uncovering fundamental principles of chromosome structure, cellular differentiation, and genome stability. By combining experimental molecular biology, computational modeling, and third generation sequencing technologies, Dr. Harris aims to elucidate the mechanisms that shape chromatin architecture and direct genome maintenance. His interdisciplinary approach integrates cutting-edge quantitative analysis with traditional molecular techniques to advance understanding of the relationship between cellular organization and disease.
Dr. Harris has developed computational tools for genomic data analysis and applies data-driven strategies to study chromatin structure and gene regulation. His work has been published in leading journals, including EMBO Journal, Genetics, and Developmental Cell, with projects spanning meiosis regulation, transcriptional control, and genome integrity. These experiences reflect his commitment to understanding how chromatin organization and gene expression guide cell fate and function.
Dr. Harris earned his Bachelor of Science in Biochemistry from the University of Minnesota and his Ph.D. in Molecular and Cellular Biology from the University of California, Berkeley. He brings expertise in data analysis, computational biology, scientific writing, and collaborative research. His broad training spans biochemistry, cell biology, microbiology, genetics, and computational genomics. -
E. John Harris Jr.
Professor of Surgery (Vascular), Emeritus
Current Research and Scholarly InterestsI am interested in thrombosis and the role of thrombin and its receptor in venous wall remodeling following venous thrombosis. I am also interested in vascular hemodynamics and the use of ultrasound, MRI and computational modeling in evaluating arterial flow in exercise conditions.
