  • Jade Benjamin-Chung

    Jade Benjamin-Chung

    Assistant Professor of Epidemiology and Population Health

    Current Research and Scholarly InterestsOur research aims to improve population health by creating high quality evidence about what health interventions work in whom and where, when, and how to implement them. Most of our research is focused on environmentally-mediated infectious diseases, including malaria, diarrhea, soil-transmitted helminths, and influenza. Our focus is on improving the health of vulnerable populations from low-resource settings, both domestically and internationally. We use a variety of epidemiologic, computational, and statistical methods, including causal inference and machine learning methods.

  • Christopher Bennett

    Christopher Bennett

    Assistant Professor of Emergency Medicine (Adult Clinical/Academic)

    BioI am a clinically active emergency physician and faculty scientist in the Department of Emergency Medicine at Stanford University. I am also a faculty affiliate with the Stanford Institute for Human-Centered Artificial Intelligence (HAI), the Center for Artificial Intelligence in Medicine and Imaging (AIMI), and the Center for Digital Health (CDH).

    As an NIH-funded principal investigator, my research group focuses on understanding and improving the quality of care Americans receive in our nation’s emergency departments, namely as it relates to transmissible infectious diseases. I have particular interests in how policy can inform precision medicine and in developing innovations to optimize healthcare delivery.

    As a recognized leader in the healthcare, I’ve served on the Boards of the Society for Academic Emergency Medicine (SAEM) and the SAEM Foundation, and on the Massachusetts Medical Society's Committee on Publications, which oversees the New England Journal of Medicine.

    Clinical Associate Professor, Pediatrics - Gastroenterology

    Current Research and Scholarly InterestsMy research focuses on improving health care delivery systems for children, adolescents and young adults with chronic illness and their families. I have particular interests in the development of chronic disease self-management skills, assessment of patient reported outcomes, the transition from pediatric to adult-oriented health care, and comprehensive programs to support families caring for a child with chronic illness.

  • David Bergman

    David Bergman

    Associate Professor of Pediatrics (General Pediatrics) at the Lucile Salter Packard Children's Hospital, Emeritus

    Current Research and Scholarly InterestsMy research has involved the use of new technologies to create different types of patient-doctor transactions. I am also interested in how these new transactions impact clinical care processes. Current work includes the evaluation of a patient portal for children with cystic fibrosis, the use of telemedicine to bring asthma experts into the schools and the attitudes of teens and parents about the use of a secure patient portal for teens.

  • Jon Bernstein

    Jon Bernstein

    Professor of Pediatrics (Genetics) and, by courtesy, of Genetics

    Current Research and Scholarly InterestsMy research is focused on the diagnosis, discovery and delineation of rare genetic conditions with a focus on neurodevelopmental disorders. This work includes the application of novel computational methods and multi-omics profiling (whole genome sequencing, long-read DNA sequencing, RNA sequencing, methylomics, metabolomics). I additionally participate in an interdisciplinary project to develop induced pluripotent stem cell and assembloid models of genetic neurodevelopmental disorders.
