Tian Yi Zhang, MD, PhD
Assistant Professor of Medicine (Hematology)
BioDr. Zhang is a board-certified hematologist. She is also an assistant professor of hematology at Stanford University School of Medicine. In addition to her medical degree, she holds a PhD in cellular and molecular immunology.
In her clinical practice, she treats patients with all forms of hematological malignancies, offering specialized expertise in acute myeloid leukemia, including therapy-resistant cases. For each patient, she develops a personalized care plan encompassing novel treatment options.
Her research activities include conducting early phase clinical trials, investigator initiated clinical trials (IITs), studying the immune repertoire in patients with myeloid malignancies, and exploring cholesterol metabolic dependencies of acute myeloid leukemia (AML).
She was the recipient of an A.P. Giannini Foundation fellowship award, which supports innovative research. The award helped fund Dr. Zhang’s study of how AML cells interact with other cells in bone marrow. A significant finding confirmed that AML cells secrete a protein that suppresses the production of red blood cells, the same protein that causes inflammation in disorders such as rheumatoid arthritis and Crohn’s disease.
Her many other honors include the National Cancer Institute Career Development (K08) Award, the American Society of Hematology (ASH) Research Training Award for Fellows, Stanford Cancer Institute - American Cancer Society (SCI-ACS) Pilot Grant and Best ASH Abstract Award two years in a row. She also has earned recognition from the National Institutes of Health and American College of Physicians.
She has published her research findings on topics such as advanced therapy for high-risk myelodysplastic syndromes and reversal of bone marrow failure induced by AML. Her work has appeared in Leukemia & Lymphoma, Science Translational Medicine, Cancer Research, the Journal of Clinical Investigation, Journal of Immunology, and elsewhere.
Dr. Zhang is a member of the American Association of Cancer Research and American Society of Hematology. She advises and mentors Stanford medical students, residents and fellows. She delivers invited lectures to faculty and fellows. In addition, she has been an invited speaker on the topic of acute myeloid leukemia at the Association of Northern California Oncologists Update on Hematological Malignancies. -
Hong Zheng
Research Engineer, Med/BMIR-ITI Institute
BioMy research focuses on understanding the multi-omic landscape (genomics, epigenomics, transcriptomics, etc.) and immune responses in human diseases (cancer, aging, and infectious diseases, etc.), and identifying robust gene signatures and targets for disease diagnostics, prognostics, and therapeutics.

Maggie Zhou
Instructor, Medicine - Oncology
BioDr. Zhou is an Instructor in the Division of Oncology at Stanford University with an academic focus in sarcoma. She graduated from Yale University with a B.A. and double majored in economics and molecular, cellular, and developmental biology. She subsequently received her M.D. from Stanford University School of Medicine, where she completed her internal medicine residency and fellowship training.
Her research interests center around the development of novel therapeutics, understanding pathophysiology of rare sarcoma subtypes, and evaluating the utility of circulating tumor DNA for assessing disease response and detecting minimal residual disease. She has co-authored over 20 peer-reviewed publications, including in Clinical Cancer Research and Nature Cell, and is an active member of the Sarcoma Clinical Trial Working Group in the Hoosier Cancer Research Network. Her research has been supported by the Chinese American Hematologist and Oncologist Network and Sarcoma Alliance for Research through Collaboration. -
Margaret J. Zhou, MD, MS
Clinical Assistant Professor, Medicine - Gastroenterology & Hepatology
BioDr. Margaret Zhou is a board-certified, fellowship-trained gastroenterologist with Stanford Health Care. She also holds an appointment as clinical assistant professor at Stanford University School of Medicine.
She specializes in therapeutic endoscopy with expertise in treating Barrett’s esophagus and disorders of the pancreas and bile duct. In particular, she offers advanced endoscopic interventions to prevent, detect, and manage gastrointestinal (GI) cancers. These interventions include endoscopic mucosal resection, endoscopic ablation, endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography, and endoscopic ultrasound. She is also interested in the management of esophageal disorders such as gastroesophageal reflux disease.
Dr. Zhou has published widely on improving the detection of precancerous lesions and cancers of the GI tract. She is particularly interested in prevention, early detection, and outcomes in Barrett’s esophagus, esophageal cancer, and stomach cancer. In addition, she has published on new technologies and the use of artificial intelligence in GI. Her research has been published in multiple journals including Clinical Gastroenterology and Hepatology; Clinical and Translational Gastroenterology; and Cancer Epidemiology, Biomarkers & Prevention.
Dr. Zhou is an active member of multiple national GI societies. She currently serves on the American Gastroenterological Association (AGA) Clinical Guidelines Committee and AGA Trainee and Early Career Committee. She also serves as an Associate Editor for Evidence-Based GI, an American College of Gastroenterology (ACG) journal. -
Han Zhu
Assistant Professor of Medicine (Cardiovascular Medicine)
BioDr. Zhu is an Assistant Professor of Medicine whose clinical and research expertise focuses on cardio-oncology and cardio-immunology. She specializes in the cardiovascular care of patients undergoing therapies for cancer, with a particular focus on the effects of immunotherapies on the heart. She received a bioengineering degree from MIT, medical degree from Case Western Reserve University, and completed clinical cardiology fellowship and internal medicine residency training at Stanford University School of Medicine. Dr. Zhu’s laboratory focuses on myocarditis, cardiac inflammation, and the effects of cancer therapeutics on the cardiovascular system. Her current research employs clinical data, bio-banked samples, and in vivo/in vitro preclinical models in combination with single-cell technologies to study immune-based toxicities in the heart. Dr. Zhu's clinic sees cardio-oncology and cardio-immunology patients and her lab focuses on devising new methods for minimizing cardiovascular complications in the cancer and autoimmune patient populations.
