Paul George, MD, PhD
Associate Professor of Neurology and Neurological Sciences (Adult Neurology) and, by courtesy, of Neurosurgery
Current Research and Scholarly InterestsDEVELOPMENT OF STROKE RECOVERY THERAPEUTICS:
Stroke is devastating to patients and their caregivers. We currently are investigating 3 neural repair approaches. The first focuses on developing a stroke recovery therapeutic based on an essential repair pathway and how it alters the immune response following stroke. The second utilizes implantable, conductive polymer devices to electrically manipulate the recovering nervous system to improve recovery and identify novel therapeutic targets. The final approach works to optimize stem cell therapeutics to enhance their ability to treat patients who have suffered from neural injury.
CONDUCTIVE BIOPOLYMER SYSTEMS FOR NEURAL RECOVERY AND STEM CELL MODULATION:
The George lab develops biomaterials to improve neural recovery in the peripheral and central nervous systems. By controlled release of drugs and molecules through biomaterials we can study the temporal effect of these neurotrophic factors on neural recovery and engineer drug delivery systems to enhance regenerative effects. By identifying the critical mechanisms for neural recovery, we are able to develop polymeric technologies for clinical translation in nerve regeneration. Recent work utilizes these novel conductive polymers to differentiate stem cells for therapeutic and drug discovery applications.
APPLYING ENGINEERING TECHNIQUES TO DETERMINE BIOMARKERS FOR STROKE DIAGNOSTICS:
The ability to create diagnostic assays and techniques enables us to understand biological systems more completely and improve clinical management. Previous work utilized mass spectroscopy proteomics to find a simple serum biomarker for TIAs (a warning sign of stroke). Our study discovered a novel candidate marker, platelet basic protein. Current studies are underway to identify further candidate biomarkers using transcriptome analysis. More accurate diagnosis will allow for aggressive therapies to prevent subsequent strokes. -

Caitlin Gocecamat
Affiliate, School of Medicine - Biomedical Ethics
BioI am a 2026 Stanford Storytelling & Medicine Summer Scholar! I am majoring in Psychology with a minor in Child and Adolescent Development San José State University (SJSU) and I am expected to graduate Fall 2027. I hope to attend graduate school for Counseling Psychology. As a McNair Scholar, I am investigating the impact of third places on Santa Clara County adolescents in retrospect. Also, I foster my cultural connections as a research assistant for the SJSU BIPOC-MPMH Lab by interviewing Filipinx in the Bay Area about their experiences with colorism and its impacts on mental health. Aside from research, I work as a Psychology Peer Mentor to enrich high schoolers' understanding and passion for psychology. In my free time, I love to dance, read interactive novels, listen to new music, sew, and scrapbook! I am excited to mix arts with medicine because wellness should be led by a holistic approach with lots of fun and emotion!

Niloufar Hosseinalipour
Affiliate, School of Medicine - Biomedical Ethics
BioNiloufar joined the French literature graduate program at the University of Minnesota in Fall 2023, completed her M.A. in June 2025, and is now pursuing her PhD. At Stanford, she participates in the Storytelling and Medicine program. Her research takes a historiographical approach to the intersections of French and Francophone literary traditions, the history of medicine, feminist thought, and postcolonial theory. She is particularly interested in how literary and medical discourses have collaborated in the pathologization of racialized and gendered bodies, and how these histories continue to shape contemporary understandings of illness and subjectivity. Drawing on thinkers such as Gayatri Spivak, Michel Foucault, and Georges Canguilhem, her work explores questions of representation, translation, and epistemic violence, as well as the ways literature both exposes and conceals the voices of marginalized subjects. Her interest in these issues is grounded in broader concerns about psychiatry’s political responsibility, the ethical stakes of diagnosis, and the role of narrative in mediating suffering.

Jessica Hsueh
Affiliate, Department Funds
Fellow in Medicine - Med/Pulmonary, Allergy & Critical Care MedicineBioCurrent combined adult and pediatric critical care fellow physician interested in medical education, curriculum design, and health services for adolescent and young adults with childhood-onset chronic conditions and medical complexity.
Most recently, I pursued my internal medicine and pediatrics (MedPeds) residency, chief residency and a medical education fellowship at the University of Illinois in Chicago. During this time, I helped implement our new X+Y resident schedule, created a multidisciplinary medical education track for residents, revamped curricula on resident mistreatment and self-advocacy, and worked with both the pediatric and adult critical care teams to develop resuscitation simulation bootcamps. My academic and institutional service interests revolved around the evolution of expertise and belonging over the course of training, particularly as it pertains to critical care resuscitation, medical educators in training, and underrepresented groups in medicine.
