Ru M Wen
Postdoctoral Scholar, Urology
BioI am dedicated to understanding the role of glycoproteins in prostate cancer, with a primary focus on Siglec-based immunotherapy. My research aims to elucidate how glycoproteins, such as AZGP1 and FXYD5, affect tumor progression and immune regulation.

Shannon White
Postdoctoral Scholar, Genetics
BioHi, I'm Shannon White. I began my postdoctoral fellowship in Michael Snyder's lab in the fall of 2020. I received my PhD from Georgetown University in Tumor Biology in Chunling Yi's lab. My graduate worked explore the signaling and metabolic vulnerabilities of NF2-mutant tumors following YAP/TAZ depletion. My postdoctoral work is exploring the epigenetic hallmarks that contribute to colon cancer progression and drug resistance. I am developing colon organoids derived from pre-cancerous polyp tissue collected from Familial Adenomatous Polyposis patients as a model system to investigate epigenetic and signaling responses to chemoprevention treatments.

Britni Wilcher
Postdoctoral Scholar, Health Policy
BioBritni Wilcher, PhD, is a Postdoctoral Fellow in Health Services Research & Development. Dr. Wilcher earned her PhD in economics from American University in 2022. She is an applied microeconomist with interests in health, labor, and gender economics. Dr. Wilcher’s research focuses on the economics of health decision making and its implications for labor markets using quasi-experimental designs to draw causal inferences for historically disadvantaged populations. While completing her doctoral studies, Dr. Wilcher also conducted impact analysis of US regulations for think tanks and government agencies.
Prior to her doctoral studies, Dr. Wilcher completed a BA in Economics at Spelman College and MSc in International Health Care Management, Economics, and Policy at SDA Bocconi School of Management in Milan, Italy. During her masters, she specialized in the economics evaluation of pharmaceutical and medical devices. Dr. Wilcher applied that training as a senior consultant at Booz Allen Hamilton in Washington, DC and research fellow at the University of Exeter in England. Her work at Exeter, supporting an EU commission aimed at advancing the existing methodological framework for health technology assessment (HTA) of medical devices (MedtecHTA), was published in Value in Health, Health Economics, and the International Journal of Technology Assessment in Health Care. -
Joseph Winer
Postdoctoral Scholar, Neurology and Neurological Sciences
BioJoe Winer completed his PhD in Psychology at UC Berkeley working with Matthew Walker and William Jagust. During his PhD, Joe used overnight EEG and PET imaging to investigate connections between sleep disruption and Alzheimer's disease in the context of healthy aging. At Stanford, Joe's research combines wearable devices, neuroimaging, and other biomarkers to explore how tracking sleep and other factors in everyday life can provide information about brain health and cognitive trajectories in aging and neurodegenerative diseases.
