Jiangbin Ye
Assistant Professor of Radiation Oncology
Current Research and Scholarly InterestsOne hallmark of cancer is that malignant cells modulate metabolic pathways to promote cancer progression. My professional interest is to investigate the causes and consequences of the abnormal metabolic phenotypes of cancer cells in response to microenvironmental stresses such as hypoxia and nutrient deprivation, with the prospect that therapeutic approaches might be developed to target these metabolic pathways to improve cancer treatment.

Jason Yeatman
Associate Professor of Pediatrics (Developmental-Behavioral Pediatrics), of Education and of Psychology
BioDr. Jason Yeatman is an Associate Professor in the Graduate School of Education and Department of Psychology at Stanford University and the Division of Developmental and Behavioral Pediatrics at Stanford University School of Medicine. Dr. Yeatman completed his PhD in Psychology at Stanford where he studied the neurobiology of literacy and developed new brain imaging methods for studying the relationship between brain plasticity and learning. After finishing his PhD, he took a faculty position at the University of Washington’s Institute for Learning and Brain Sciences before returning to Stanford.
As the director of the Brain Development and Education Lab, the overarching goal of his research is to understand the mechanisms that underlie the process of learning to read, how these mechanisms differ in children with dyslexia, and to design literacy intervention programs that are effective across the wide spectrum of learning differences. His lab employs a collection of structural and functional neuroimaging measurements to study how a child’s experience with reading instruction shapes the development of brain circuits that are specialized for this unique cognitive function. -
Ann Ming Yeh
Clinical Professor, Pediatrics - Gastroenterology
BioDr. Ann Ming Yeh is a Clinical Professor at Stanford University in Pediatric Gastroenterology and practices at Lucile Packard Children’s Hospital and Stanford Children’s Health. She completed her residency and GI fellowship at Stanford University.
Dr. Yeh’s research interests include diet therapies for inflammatory bowel disease, nutrition, small intestinal bacterial overgrowth, and integrative medicine for pediatric gastroenterology. She has presented her work on fatty liver, inflammatory bowel disease and integrative medicine at national meetings.
She completed a two-year distance learning fellowship through the University of Arizona’s Center for Integrative Medicine where she gained additional expertise in mind-body therapies, botanicals, and nutritional supplements. With skill and compassion, Dr. Yeh treats her patients with a comprehensive, evidence-based, holistic approach. She is also a formally trained and board-certified medical acupuncturist. She is currently the program director for the nation’s premier fellowship for Pediatric Integrative Medicine at Stanford.
Outside of medicine, she enjoys yoga, gardening, hiking, and traveling with her family. -
Ellen Yeh
Associate Professor of Pathology and of Microbiology and Immunology
Current Research and Scholarly InterestsOur research program focuses on understudied microbial ecology as solutions for planet health. We select organisms with important functional traits to understand their evolution, role in the environment, and potential for bioengineering toward sustainability solutions. We are currently working on nitrogen-fixing cyanobacteria and algae, genetic screens in diatoms, and algal biofuels.

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. -
