Andrew A. Li, MD
Clinical Assistant Professor, Medicine - Gastroenterology & Hepatology
BioDr. Li is a board-certified, fellowship-trained gastroenterologist with Stanford Health Care. He is a clinical assistant professor in the Department of Medicine, Division of Gastroenterology and Hepatology at Stanford University School of Medicine.
A therapeutic endoscopy specialist, Dr. Li received fellowship training in gastroenterology, advanced endoscopy, and endoscopic surgery at Stanford University School of Medicine. He is board certified in internal medicine and gastroenterology.
Dr. Li specializes in advanced endoscopic procedures. His areas of expertise include endoscopic ultrasound (EUS), endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP), enteroscopy, endoscopic mucosal resection (EMR), and endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD). He also specializes in esophageal peroral endoscopic myotomy (POEM), gastric peroral endoscopic myotomy (GPOEM), and Zenker’s diverticulum peroral endoscopic myotomy (ZPOEM).
In addition, he treats gastrointestinal cancers, including gastric (stomach) cancer and colon cancer. He is dedicated to helping patients by integrating leading-edge research and innovations with compassionate, patient-centered clinical care.
Dr. Li’s research interests include gastric cancer, innovations in advanced endoscopy and endoscopic surgery, and the application of artificial intelligence (AI) and other computational techniques for prevention, diagnoses, and treatments.
Dr. Li has published articles in the World Journal of Gastrointestinal Endoscopy, Gastrointestinal Endoscopy, and Endoscopy International Open. He has presented at national and international conferences held in Las Vegas; Washington, D.C.; and Seoul, Korea. In his many presentations, he has covered topics such as the prevention of gastric cancer and prevention of post-ERCP pancreatitis.
Dr. Li is a member of the American Society for Gastrointestinal Endoscopy, American College of Gastroenterology, American Gastroenterological Association, and American College of Physicians. -
David Limsui
Clinical Professor, Medicine - Gastroenterology & Hepatology
BioThroughout my career I have been extensively involved in post-graduate medical education and training of residents and fellows. I served on the AGA Future Trends Committee tasked with reporting the future of gastroenterology training programs and have been admitted into the AGA Academy of Educators. I joined Stanford for the incredible opportunity to be part of a dynamic division with excellent and dedicated faculty where one can achieve their greatest potential. I share the honor and privilege of leading our fellowship program and in the joy of teaching such talented and inspiring fellows. Together we strive to provide the best educational experience for our fellows to become outstanding gastroenterologists and future leaders in academic medicine.
My subspecialty areas of focus are inflammatory bowel disease and general gastroenterology. -
TZU HAN LO
Postdoctoral Scholar, Gastroenterology
BioTzu-Han Lo, a researcher at the Institute of Biomedical Sciences at Academia Sinica, has made contributions to the field of macrophage biology. His work has particularly focused on inflammation, especially in the context of fibrotic response. One of his works includes a study on the regulation of macrophage polarization in ureteral obstruction. This research has illuminated the role of inflammatory cell infiltration and activation during the early stages of kidney injury, a common pathological feature of chronic kidney disease.
In addition to his work on macrophage biology, Tzu-Han Lo has also delved into research related to galectins, a family of β-galactoside–binding proteins. His work in this area has centered on the role of galectins in recognizing microbial glycans, particularly lipopolysaccharides (LPSs). He has explored their impact on host defense mechanisms, including autophagy and both canonical and non-canonical inflammasome signaling pathways.
His research has offered insights into the complex interactions between host immunity and microbial components. This has contributed to our understanding of inflammatory responses and their implications for human health. -
Anson Lowe
Associate Professor of Medicine (Gastroenterology and Hepatology), Emeritus
Current Research and Scholarly InterestsThe laboratory is focused on the relationship between injury, wound healing, and cancer. Esophageal, gastric, and pancreatic cancers are a focus. We are particularly interested in the regulation of cell signaling by EGFR, the EGF receptor. In addition to cancer pathogenesis, active projects include the development of new diagnostic assays and drugs.
