Current Research and Scholarly InterestsActive Wnt signaling maintains somatic stem cells in many organ systems. Using Wnt target genes as markers, we have characterized distinct cell populations with stem cell behavior in the inner ear, an organ thought to be terminally differentiated. Ongoing work focuses on delineating the developing significance of these putative stem/progenitor cells and their behavior after damage.

Christina F. Chick
Instructor, Psychiatry and Behavioral Sciences - Child & Adolescent Psychiatry and Child Development
Current Research and Scholarly InterestsMy research examines the mechanistic contributions of sleep, cognition and affect to the onset and course of psychiatric disorders across the lifespan. I am particularly interested in adolescence as a period during which changes in circadian rhythm, sleep architecture, and sleep behavior co-occur with neuroendocrine development, psychosocial changes, and the onset of many psychiatric disorders. Given that sleep is a highly treatable target, increasing our understanding of the specific contributions of sleep to psychiatric symptom onset may facilitate the development of targeted interventions to mitigate the course of illness.

Nymisha Chilukuri, MD
Clinical Assistant Professor, Pediatrics - General Pediatrics
Current Research and Scholarly InterestsMy research interests are to use clinical informatics to improve access to equitable care for children in under-served communities. My main areas of research interest currently include optimizing clinical informatics solutions for those with non-English preferred languages and improving interoperability between health systems, public health and community partners for pediatric patients and families.

Albert Sean Chiou, MD, MBA
Clinical Professor, Dermatology
Current Research and Scholarly InterestsI am a clinical researcher interested in evaluating promising new diagnostic paradigms and treatments for serious or poorly treated, chronic skin conditions. My research currently includes:
Therapeutics:
- Treatments for atopic dermatitis and other inflammatory skin conditions
- Treatments for itch from epidermolysis bullosa
- Treatments for chronic wounds for patients with recessive dystrophic epidermolysis bullosa (In collaboration with Dr. Jean Tang and Dr. Peter Marinkovich)
Diagnostics:
- Artificial intelligence approaches for melanoma and skin cancer early detection
- Imaging mass spectrometry for skin cancer margin analysis and diagnosis
I collaborate with other faculty within the Stanford Skin Innovation and Interventional Research Group (SIIRG) to conduct investigator initiated and sponsored clinical trials seeking to improve care for important dermatologic diseases
