Alex J Goodell
Affiliate,
BioAnesthesiologist and internist interested in artificial intelligence and large language models in medicine. Currently, my primary focus is on developing and evaluating applications of large language models to improve the "user experience" of patients (who spend too much time fighting the system that is tasked with healing them) and doctors (who spend too much time fighting the system that is supposed to help them heal others).
Interests:
- Benchmarking LLMs as clinical calculators
- Medical summarization by LLMs
- Agentic /tool-using language models
- GenerativeAI for Medical Education and Simulation
- Data equity in LLMs
- Novel benchmarks for clinical LLMs, including simulation
- Participatory research, open-source software

Alpana Gowda
Clinical Assistant Professor, Anesthesiology, Perioperative and Pain Medicine
BioDr. Alpana Gowda is a clinical assistant professor in the Division of Pain Medicine at Stanford, where she has cared for patients since 2007. Her clinical practice focuses on the diagnosis and treatment of complex pain conditions, with particular expertise in musculoskeletal pain and electrodiagnostic (EMG) testing.
Dr. Gowda is passionate about helping patients understand the source of their pain—especially when the diagnosis feels unclear or elusive. She emphasizes that chronic pain is a multifaceted condition that can arise from the bones, muscles, ligaments, nerves, or brain, and works with each patient to develop a plan that addresses their unique experience of pain.
In addition to her clinical work, Dr. Gowda teaches Stanford pain medicine fellows and lectures on topics including pain mechanisms, musculoskeletal medicine, and the challenges of diagnosing chronic pain.
