Sina Sadeghzadeh
MD Student with Scholarly Concentration in Clinical Research, expected graduation Spring 2026
BioSina was born in Tehran, Iran and raised in Zanjan, Iran. He came out to Massachusetts to attend Harvard University where he obtained his undergraduate degree cum laude in Neuroscience with a secondary in Economics. In college, Sina conducted wet-lab research under the supervision of Dr. Hugo Bellen, worked as a legal intern in Levy Firestone Muse LLP, and served as a research assistant for Drs. Francis Shen, Steven Levitsky, and Jennifer Hochschild. Sina moved to California (by bike!) to begin medical school at Stanford where he is currently pursuing clinical and basic science research opportunities in the neuroscience domain. Outside of medical school, Sina is an avid cyclist, enjoys going on walks, doing yoga, and learning to salsa dance.

Andrew Shen
Ph.D. Student in Biomedical Data Science, admitted Autumn 2025
BioHi, my name is Andrew! I’m a current PhD student in Biomedical Data Science and an NSF Graduate Research Fellow. I am broadly interested in solving problems at the intersection of AI and science, but particularly in the areas of biology and medicine. Before my PhD, I worked at Harvard Medical School with Marinka Zitnik on developing machine learning methods for medicine and science.

Megan Sparrow
MD Student, expected graduation Spring 2030
BioI am a medical student at Stanford University School of Medicine with a background in molecular biology and stem cell research. I received my B.S. in Molecular, Cell, and Developmental Biology with a minor in Biomedical Research from UCLA, where I became interested in developmental biology and stem cell-based embryo models through my work in the Clark Lab. After graduation, I joined the Briganti Lab at UC San Diego as a Staff Research Associate and Lab Manager, studying the molecular mechanisms of dilated cardiomyopathy using iPSC-derived cardiomyocytes. Building on these experiences, my current interests center on women’s health, embryo and stem cell research, and reproductive endocrinology and infertility. In my personal time, you will find me at the beach, hiking, baking, or attempting to garden.
