Caroline Okorie
Clinical Associate Professor, Pediatrics - Pulmonary Medicine
BioDr. Okorie is board certified in pediatric pulmonology, sleep medicine and general pediatrics and joined the Division of Pediatric Pulmonary, Asthma and Sleep Medicine in 2018. She obtained her medical degree and Master’s in Public Health at the University of Arizona before going on to a residency and chief residency in pediatrics at Oregon Health & Science University. She completed her fellowship training in both pediatric pulmonary medicine and sleep medicine at Stanford University. She has a passion for medical education and serves as an Associate Program Director for the Pediatric Residency Program at Stanford.
She treats children with a variety of lung diseases, including: asthma, chronic cough, cystic fibrosis, chronic respiratory failure, and chronic lung disease of prematurity. Her additional training in sleep medicine allows her expertise to treat sleep disorders, including: sleep disordered breathing, parasomnias, narcolepsy, restless legs syndrome, and insomnia. -

Stefan L. Oliver
Sr Res Scientist-Basic Ls, Pediatrics - Infectious Diseases
BioStefan Oliver is a creative senior scientist and educator with a special interest in the membrane fusion mechanisms of viral pathogens. Stefan uses and develops multidisciplinary approaches to delineate the molecular functions that underpin the mechanics of herpesvirus fusion. Recently he has been focused on solving near atomic resolution structures of antibody-bound glycoproteins using contemporary cryo-EM technologies. One of his overarching goals is to understand the complex interplay of the herpesvirus fusion complex with cellular factors at the atomic level using state-of-the-art structural biology tools.
In addition to his dedication to lab-based science, Stefan is involved in community outreach supporting scientists of the future. He participates as a judge for science competitions and also lectures to high school students about STEM. He is a strong advocate for the scientific method and seeks to get the best out of his mentees at all stages of their careers, guiding high school students and postdocs through their research projects.
Stefan’s educational background includes a B.Sc. in Immunology and a Ph.D. in Veterinary Virology. He has spent more than 25 years in academic and biotechnology research laboratories in fields spanning immunology, pharmaceuticals, infectious diseases and structural biology. Special interests outside of his primary field of research are evolution and motorcycles. Stefan was the recipient of an American Motorcycling Association (AMA) Service award for providing information related to COVID-19. -

Alisa Marie Olmsted
Affiliate, Psych/Major Laboratories and Clinical & Translational Neurosciences Incubator
BioI am a board-certified psychiatrist and Advanced MD Fellow within the Sierra-Pacific Mental Illness Research, Education, and Clinical Center (MIRECC) at the Veteran Affairs Palo Alto Health Care System (VAPAHCS). I am also affiliated as a postdoctoral scholar within the Department of Psychiatry and Behavioral Sciences at Stanford University with Leanne Williams, PhD as primary mentor. My general interests are in the implementation of experimental/novel therapeutics and precision approaches to improve outcomes in difficult-to-treat depression. In my developing research program, I focus on circuit-based paradigms in negative valence and social process domains, functional magnetic resonance imaging, and neuromodulation. Clinically, I operate in a primarily interventional space.
