Qianheng Ma
Postdoctoral Scholar, Psychiatry
BioQianheng (Jessica) Ma obtained her PhD degree of biostatistics at University of Chicago under the supervision of Prof. Donald Hedeker and is the 2021 recipient of the dissertation grant from Society of Multivariate Experimental Psychology (SMEP). Her current research focus are modern statistical methods and deep learning techniques for mining (multivariate) intensive longitudinal data especially psychological/behavioral measures collected by mobile/wearable devices. Besides research, she loves playing the piano and is good at Jazz improvisation and she can speak fluent Cantonese.

Marina Magalhães
Postdoctoral Scholar, Neonatal and Developmental Medicine
BioMarina Magalhães is a postdoctoral fellow in Dr. Suzan Carmichael’s lab in the Division of Neonatal and Developmental Medicine, Department of Pediatrics, School of Medicine. Her overall research goals are to improve health outcomes and advance health equity for women, pregnant and birthing people, and their infants. Dr. Magalhães is a nurse by training in newborn critical care with a background using clinical research methods, particularly to support nutrition and optimize health outcomes of preterm, very low birthweight (VLBW) infants. Her doctoral research found that personalizing lactation support via biomarker-based text messages during early postpartum may be feasible to prolong lactation among mothers of critically ill infants. This experience, along with the growing maternal health crisis and research silos separating maternal and newborn health, led her to pursue postdoctoral training in perinatal epidemiology. Her current research centers on the health of women and childbearing people by using population-level data to investigate the causes of adverse perinatal health outcomes (i.e. severe maternal morbidity) in the U.S.

Moogdho Mim Mahzab
Postdoctoral Scholar, Infectious Diseases
BioMoogdho is a postdoctoral scholar at the Woods Institute for the Environment. He is a development economist, concentrating on political economy, environment and public health. He received his Ph.D. in Economics from the University of Virginia (UVa) in 2021. His research at UVa focused on how dishonest politicians (tax-evaders) affect public goods provision and public health in constituencies the politicians represent. At Stanford, he is working at the Luby Lab on improving Brick Kilns operations in South Asia to reduce air pollution and facilitate better public health.

Mario Malički
Postdoctoral Scholar, Epidemiology
BioAfter finishing School of Medicine at the University of Zagreb, Croatia, I obtained an MA in Literature and Medicine at King’s College, London, UK, and then worked at the University of Split School of Medicine, Croatia where I obtained my PhD in Medical Ethics titled: Integrity of scientific publications in biomedicine. From 2017-2019 I have been a postdoc at AMC and ASUS Amsterdam, Netherlands, and in 2020 I joined METRICS at Stanford University, USA where I focus on meta-research of preprints and peer review. I am also a Co-Editor-in-Chief of Research Integrity and Peer Review journal (RIPR)

Valentina Martinez Damonte
Postdoctoral Scholar, Psychiatry
BioI have come to Stanford University to increase my knowledge and acquire new skills in neuroscience and synaptic plasticity. My interest in the brain arises from its unique complexity and malleability to shape different behavioral outcomes. My PhD was aimed at studying the modulation of voltage-gated calcium channels in primary neuronal cultures and brain slices by a GPCR involved in energy homeostasis and memory. At this stage I am willing to use my expertise in electrophysiology and subcellular neuroscience to explore the plasticity of inhibitory afferents into the VTA and its relation with stress-induced relapse.
I also believe that science is a powerful tool to explore and change the world, and hence I am highly interested in the ideas behind science policies as well as in understanding how science shapes the reality we live in, and the responsibility we have as scientists. -

Brittany Elizabeth Matheson, PhD
Clinical Instructor, Psychiatry and Behavioral Sciences - Child & Adolescent Psychiatry and Child Development
BioBrittany Matheson, PhD, is a clinical instructor and licensed clinical psychologist in the Eating Disorders Clinic. She completed her undergraduate degree at Duke University, doctorate from the Joint Doctoral Program in Clinical Psychology at San Diego State University and the University of California, San Diego, and APA clinical internship at Lucile Packard Children’s Hospital Stanford/Children’s Health Council. Dr. Matheson's research interests include examining the psychosocial, neurocognitive, and familial factors related to disordered eating and excess weight gain in youth. In particular, Dr. Matheson has research and clinical expertise in the interplay among obesity, disordered eating, and autism spectrum disorder. She is interested in the development and implementation of evidence-based treatments for youth with disordered eating as well as better understanding factors that influence pediatric bariatric surgery outcomes.

Devin Malloy McCauley
Postdoctoral Scholar, Adolescent Medicine
BioDevin McCauley earned his PhD in Human Development and Family Studies from The Pennsylvania State University in 2021, where his research applied intensive longitudinal methods and time-varying effect modeling to investigate family, school, and peer influences on adolescent mental health and well-being. A second focus of his research applies a developmental framework in study of adolescent e-cigarette use. He is particularly interested in identifying sociodemographic (e.g., race/ethnicity, sexual identity) disparities in risk factors for e-cigarette use. His long-term goal is to inform, develop, and evaluate family and school-based prevention programs which support healthy adolescent development and address health disparities related to e-cigarette use.
