  • Haruka Itakura, MD, PhD

    Haruka Itakura, MD, PhD

    Assistant Professor of Medicine (Oncology)

    BioDr. Haruka Itakura is an Assistant Professor of Medicine (Oncology) in the Stanford University School of Medicine, a data scientist, and a practicing breast medical oncologist at the Stanford Women’s Cancer Center. She is board-certified in Oncology, Clinical Informatics, Hematology, and Internal Medicine. Her research mission is to drive medical advances at the intersection of cancer and data science, applying state-of-the-art machine learning/artificial intelligence (AI) techniques to extract clinically actionable knowledge from heterogeneous multi-scale cancer data to improve patient outcomes. Her ongoing research to develop robust methodologies and apply cutting-edge techniques to analyze complex cancer big data was catapulted by an NIH K01 Career Development Award in Biomedical Big Data Science after obtaining a PhD in Biomedical Informatics at Stanford University. Her cancer research focuses on extracting radiomic (pixel-level quantitative imaging) features of tumors from medical imaging studies and applying machine learning frameworks, including radiogenomic approaches, for the integrative analysis of heterogeneous, multiomic (e.g., radiomic, genomic, transcriptomic) data to accelerate discoveries in cancer diagnostics and therapeutics. Her current projects include data science/AI-powered prediction modeling of survival, treatment response, cancer recurrence, and metastasis in different cancer subtypes; detection of occult invasive breast cancer; and identification of novel therapeutic targets. Her goal is to translate her research findings back to the clinical setting for the benefit of patients with difficult-to-treat cancers.

  • Peter K.  Jackson

    Peter K.  Jackson

    Professor of Microbiology and Immunology (Baxter Labs) and of Pathology

    Current Research and Scholarly InterestsDr. Jackson’s lab studies how primary cilia organize hormone, metabolite, and growth factor signaling in metabolic tissues and how their disruption causes obesity and diabetes. A second focus is defining the KRAS driven secreted factor networks that rewire the tumor microenvironment in lung and pancreatic cancers to promote immune evasion and therapeutic resistance. This work is revealing new secreted drug targets and combination strategies for precision oncology and metabolic disease.

  • Sneha Shah Jain MD, MBA

    Sneha Shah Jain MD, MBA

    Clinical Assistant Professor, Medicine - Cardiovascular Medicine

    BioDr. Sneha S. Jain is a Clinical Assistant Professor of Medicine in the Division of Cardiovascular Medicine at Stanford University, where she specializes in general cardiovascular medicine and preventive cardiology. She co-founded and is the director of GUIDE-AI, which focuses on the development, responsible deployment, and pragmatic evaluation of AI tools to augment healthcare delivery and improve patient outcomes across the healthcare enterprise.

    Dr. Jain completed her undergraduate studies in Economics at Duke University, graduating with distinction, before earning her MD from the Johns Hopkins School of Medicine and her MBA from Harvard Business School. She completed internal medicine residency training at Columbia/NewYork-Presbyterian, and fellowship training in cardiovascular medicine at Stanford University.

    Dr. Jain serves as an Expert AI Consultant for the Journal of the American College of Cardiology, a member of the AHA Expert Panel for the AI Validation Lab, and Co-Director of the Cross-Sectional Artificial Intelligence Working Group at the American College of Cardiology, where she also serves on the Healthcare Innovation Council.

  • Siddhartha Jaiswal

    Siddhartha Jaiswal

    Associate Professor of Pathology

    Current Research and Scholarly InterestsWe identified a common disorder of aging called clonal hematopoiesis of indeterminate potential (CHIP). CHIP occurs due to certain somatic mutations in blood stem cells and represents a precursor state for blood cancer, but is also associated with increased risk of cardiovascular disease and death. We hope to understand more about the biology and clinical implications of CHIP using human and model system studies.
