Mrigender Singh Virk
Clinical Associate Professor, Pathology
BioDr. Mrigender Virk completed his residency in Anatomic & Clinical Pathology at Georgetown University before joining Stanford for his Transfusion Medicine Fellowship. After completion of the fellowship, Dr. Virk joined the Department of Pathology as a member of the faculty for Transfusion Medicine. Dr. Virk is currently the Director of the Transfusion Medicine Laboratory and the Blood Banking & Transfusion Medicine Fellowship Program. His work has primarily focused on the improvement of blood bank inventory management through optimization of O-neg RBC utilization and waste mitigation of all blood products in an expanding enterprise footprint. Dr. Virk has also improved inventory efficiency and safety through the implementation of pathogen reduced platelets and pathogen reduced cryoprecipitated fibrinogen complex.

Alexis Thomas Weiner
Postdoctoral Scholar, Pathology
Current Research and Scholarly InterestsThe planar cell polarity (PCP) signaling pathway polarizes animal cells along an axis parallel to the tissue plane, and in so doing generates long-range organization that can span entire tissues. Although its core proteins and much about their interactions are known, how PCP signaling occurs at a mechanistic level remains fundamentally mysterious. In my current project I will employ novel genetic methods to dissect the logic underlying how cellular asymmetry arises at a molecular level.
