Wah Chiu
Wallenberg-Bienenstock Professor and Professor of Bioengineering and, by courtesy, of Microbiology and Immunology
Current Research and Scholarly InterestsMy research includes methodology improvements in single particle cryo-EM for atomic resolution structure determination of molecules and molecular machines, as well as in cryo-ET of cells and organelles towards subnanometer resolutions. We collaborate with many researchers around the country and outside the USA on understanding biological processes such as protein folding, virus assembly and disassembly, pathogen-host interactions, signal transduction, and transport across cytosol and membranes.

Eric Y Cho, MD
Clinical Assistant Professor, Urology
BioDr. Eric Y. Cho is a board-certified, fellowship-trained urologist with Stanford Health Care and an clinical assistant professor in the Department of Urology at Stanford University School of Medicine.
Dr. Cho provides general and reconstructive urology care, including surgical and nonsurgical treatments for a wide range of conditions affecting the urinary and male reproductive systems. He treats a wide spectrum of general urology conditions, including benign prostatic hyperplasia and kidney stones, and provides diagnosis and treatment counseling for urologic cancers. In addition, he has expertise in genitourinary reconstruction related to urinary tract trauma and injury, urethral and ureteral strictures, ureteropelvic junction obstruction, and cancer survivorship challenges such as urinary incontinence or erectile dysfunction. He has expertise using minimally invasive and robotic techniques to restore function, structure, and appearance.
He excels at helping patients understand and navigate their care, which may involve multiple specialists. He also prioritizes shared decision-making with each patient to deliver care that supports their treatment goals and quality of life.
Dr. Cho’s research focuses on developing and evaluating innovative surgical techniques in reconstructive urology. He has studied robotic approaches to ureteral reconstruction and prostatectomy, as well as patient outcomes after surgery. He continues to pursue research aiming to understand how disease develops and how to continually improve patient outcomes with and without surgery.
Dr. Cho has published his findings in leading peer-reviewed journals and has shared research findings at regional and national urologic meetings. He also participates in international medical missions to serve communities that lack access to reconstructive urologic surgery and care.
Dr. Cho is a member of the American Urologic Association (AUA), Society of Genitourinary Reconstructive Surgeons (GURS), and Western Section of the AUA (WSAUA). -

Jae Keun Cho
Visiting Associate Professor, Otolaryngology (Head and Neck Surgery)
BioJae Keun Cho, MD, PhD, is a Visiting Associate Professor in the Department of Otolaryngology–Head and Neck Surgery at Stanford University School of Medicine and an Associate Professor at Inje University Ilsan Paik Hospital in South Korea. He is a head and neck surgeon whose clinical and research interests focus on head and neck oncology, tumor immunology, and translational research.
His research explores the tumor immune microenvironment and clinically relevant strategies to improve the diagnosis and treatment of head and neck diseases. His current interests also include the application of artificial intelligence to endoscopic imaging and surgical visualization, with an emphasis on translating emerging technologies into practical tools for clinical care. -
Mildred Cho, PhD
Professor (Research) of Pediatrics (Center for Biomedical Ethics) and of Medicine (Primary Care and Population Health)
Current Research and Scholarly InterestsDr. Cho's major areas of interest include: ethical and social issues in genetic research, including those arising from gene therapy and editing, synthetic biology, microbiome research, the use of artificial intelligence to analyze genomic and medical data, the effects of gene patenting on clinical genetic testing and research, and the impacts of academic-industry ties on biomedical research.

Valerie Chock
Professor of Pediatrics (Neonatology) and, by courtesy, of Obstetrics and Gynecology (Maternal Fetal Medicine)
Current Research and Scholarly InterestsNeurological monitoring in critically ill infants. Altered hemodynamics in neonates, especially in relation to prematurity, congenital heart disease, and central nervous system injury. Determination of the hemodynamic significance and effects of a patent ductus arteriosus in the preterm infant. Utilizing NIRS (near-infrared spectroscopy) and other technologies for improved monitoring in the NICU.
