Celina Yong, MD, MBA, MSc
Associate Professor of Medicine (Cardiovascular Medicine)
BioCelina Yong, MD, MBA, MSc, FACC, FAHA, FSCAI, is an Associate Professor in the Stanford School of Medicine and Director of Interventional Cardiology at the VA Palo Alto Medical Center. Dr. Yong leads an active health services research program focused on using novel scalable approaches to understand and resolve inequities in cardiovascular care, as well as in the workforce. In her clinical practice, Dr. Yong performs complex coronary and structural procedures and is actively involved in clinical trials of novel device and drug therapies for cardiovascular disease.
Prior to joining the Stanford faculty, Dr. Yong completed an MSc in Health Policy, Planning and Financing from the London School of Economics and MBA from Oxford as a Marshall Scholar. She completed her MD at Stanford, followed by internal medicine residency at University of California, San Francisco and cardiology and interventional cardiology fellowships at Stanford, including serving as Chief Fellow. -
Kelly H. Yoo, MD, PhD
Postdoctoral Scholar, Neurosurgery
BioDr. Kelly H. Yoo is a postdoctoral scholar in the Department of Neurosurgery at Stanford University, specializing in innovative therapeutic strategies for neurosurgical pathologies. She earned her M.D. and Ph.D. from Heidelberg University School of Medicine, where her doctoral research focused on combining CAR T cell immunotherapy with ibrutinib and a reactive oxygen species accelerator, PipFcB, for hematologic malignancies. Graduating in the top 1% of her class, Dr. Yoo was recruited early for her residency in neurosurgery, where she honed her expertise in the interdisciplinary application of combinatorial treatment strategies.
Building on the knowledge she gained during her doctoral training, she worked to integrate CAR T cell therapy with bevacizumab, temozolomide chemotherapy, and radiation therapy for neurosurgical patients with primary and recurrent glioblastoma. As part of the clinician-scientist track, Dr. Yoo has completed several certifications, including Good Clinical Practice, the Principal Investigators Course, the Clinical Trial Investigators Course, and the Munich Investigators Course. These experiences have equipped her to design translational research that effectively bridges the gap between bench and bedside.
Recognized as a top 0.1% resident by the Baden-Württemberg Medical Association for her exceptional clinical and research performance, Dr. Yoo joined the Department of Neurosurgery at Stanford University to advance her career through a postdoctoral fellowship. -
Audrey Yoon, DDS
Clinical Professor, Psychiatry and Behavioral Sciences - Sleep Medicine
BioDr. Yoon is a double board-certified sleep specialist with the Stanford Health Care Sleep Medicine Center. She is currently a Clinical Professor in the Division of Sleep Medicine in the Department of Psychiatry and Behavioral Sciences at Stanford University School of Medicine.
She uses her extensive orthodontic experience to diagnose and treat obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) in children and adults. Dr. Yoon specializes in surgical and non-surgical OSA treatments, such as miniscrew-assisted rapid palatal expansion (MARPE), distraction osteogenesis maxillary expansion (DOME), and maxillomandibular advancement (MMA). These procedures restructure the palate, nasal airway, or jaw to improve airflow.
Her research interests include modifying head and face growth to improve sleep-disordered breathing in children and creating customized appliances that help reshape bones in the mouth, jaw, and face over time. She has also studied genetic anatomical factors related to OSA. Dr. Yoon worked with Stanford Medicine researchers to develop a new DOME technique, and she established and proposed a surgery-first approach protocol for MMA. With this approach, doctors surgically reposition the jaw before starting orthodontic treatment. The surgery-first approach can reduce the amount of time patients need to undergo orthodontic treatment.
Dr. Yoon has published in many peer-reviewed journals, including Sleep, Sleep Medicine, the American Journal of Orthodontics and Dentofacial Orthopedics, and the American Academy of Pediatric Dentistry, and she has written numerous book chapters. She has presented to her colleagues all over the nation and the world, including those in Germany, Italy, Australia, Chile, Singapore and China. Her presentations have covered a range of topics, such as the latest techniques in craniofacial (head and face) growth modification.
Dr. Yoon is a founding co-president of the World Dentofacial Sleep Society. She established a dental sleep medicine specialty clinic in the Division of Sleep Medicine at Stanford University School of Medicine. She also established the Dental Sleep Medicine Clinic at the University of the Pacific and is currently a program director of the Pacific Ortho-Dental Sleep Medicine Fellowship Program. Dr. Yoon also serves on the board of directors for the California Sleep Society, Angle Orthodontists, and the Korean Association of Dental Sleep Medicine.
She is a diplomate of the American Board of Orthodontics and the American Board of Dental Sleep Medicine.
