Fateme Nateghi Haredasht
Postdoctoral Scholar, Biomedical Informatics
BioAs a postdoctoral scholar at the Stanford Center for Biomedical Informatics Research (BMIR), I find myself at the exciting intersection of machine learning and healthcare. My journey began with a PhD in Biomedical Sciences from KU Leuven in Belgium, where I explored the complexities of machine learning algorithms and their transformative potential in clinical settings. My research focused on adapting these algorithms for time-to-event data, a method used to predict when specific events may occur in a patient’s future.
At Stanford, my work centers on building trustworthy AI systems to enhance healthcare delivery. I develop and evaluate machine learning models that integrate structured electronic health records (EHRs) and unstructured clinical notes to support real-world clinical decision-making. My recent projects include predicting treatment retention in opioid use disorder, improving antibiotic stewardship for urinary tract infections, and enabling digital consultations through large language models (LLMs). I'm particularly interested in embedding-based retrieval and retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) methods that help bridge cutting-edge AI research with clinical practice.
My role involves not just advancing the integration of machine learning in healthcare, but also collaborating with a diverse team of clinicians, data scientists, and engineers. Together, we're striving to unravel complex healthcare challenges and ultimately improve patient outcomes. -
Minh Dai Nguyen
Postdoctoral Scholar, Gastroenterology
BioDr. Minh Nguyen joined the Prof. Jeffrey Glenn laboratory as a postdoctoral scholar in August 2022. His aspiration is to merge chemistry and biology to drive advancements in drug discovery by emphasizing molecular, structural, and chemical approaches. Minh currently focuses on the development of novel antiviral drugs against SARS-CoV-2 and other RNA viruses of pandemic potential. Minh earned his Ph.D. in Chemistry from the University of Pennsylvania under the direction of Prof. Amos B. Smith, III, where his doctoral work centered on the convergent total synthesis of two marine natural products nahuoic acids Cii and Dii.
