Kate Corcoran, PhD
Clinical Professor, Psychiatry and Behavioral Sciences
BioDr. Corcoran is a Clinical Professor in the Department of Psychiatry and Behavioral Sciences, where her work focuses on psychotherapy education, clinical supervision, and the practice of evidence-based psychotherapy.
She serves as Curriculum Director of CBT Training for the Psychiatry Residency Program and is actively involved in psychotherapy training across multiple levels of graduate and postgraduate education. She teaches cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) to psychiatry residents and first-year graduate students in the Psy.D. Consortium program and supervises postdoctoral fellows and PGY-3 psychiatry residents through the ADAPT Clinic. In her teaching and supervision, Dr. Corcoran emphasizes strong case formulation and a principle-based approach to CBT, helping clinicians learn to apply evidence-based methods thoughtfully and flexibly.
In her clinical practice, Dr. Corcoran specializes in evidence-based psychotherapy for adults experiencing anxiety, stress, depression, and related concerns. Her approach draws primarily from CBT while incorporating mindfulness-, acceptance-, and compassion-based approaches, with an emphasis on understanding each patient’s needs, experiences, and goals. Her current interests also include helping women navigate transitions across different stages of life, including perimenopause and menopause. -
Linda C. Cork, DVM, PhD

Joanne Cornbleet
Associate Professor of Pathology at the Stanford University Medical Center, Emerita
Current Research and Scholarly InterestsAs medical director of the Hematology Laboratory, my main focus is service work, including laboratory administration, bone marrow pathology, and flow cytometry interpretation. Publications arise primarily from development or evaluation of laboratory methods or collections of unusual patient cases.

David N. Cornfield
Anne T. and Robert M. Bass Professor of Pediatric Pulmonary Medicine
Current Research and Scholarly InterestsOver the past 20 years, the Cornfield Laboratory has focused upon basic, translational and clinical research, with a primary focus on lung biology. As an active clinician-scientist, delivering care to acutely and chronically ill infants and children, our lab focuses on significant clinical challenges and tried to use science to craft novel solutions to difficult clinical problems.

Steven M. Corsello
Assistant Professor of Medicine (Oncology) and, by courtesy, of Chemical and Systems Biology
Current Research and Scholarly InterestsOur laboratory operates at the intersection of functional genomics and chemical biology, with the goal of advancing novel molecular mechanisms of cancer inhibition to clinical use. We aim to 1) leverage phenotypic screening and functional genomics to determine novel anti-cancer mechanisms of small molecules, 2) develop new targeted therapy approaches against solid tumors, and 3) build a comprehensive community resource for drug repurposing discovery.

Ximena Corso Díaz
Assistant Professor of Ophthalmology
Current Research and Scholarly InterestsWe are interested in unraveling the roles of RNA-binding proteins (RBPs) and regulatory RNAs in retinal development and homeostasis.
RNA-binding proteins mediate functional integration of transcriptional and post-transcriptional machineries influencing various aspects of gene expression and RNA metabolism. Several RBPs have cell-type enriched expression patterns in the retina or cause blinding diseases, however their role in retinal development and function is poorly understood. We have identified several RBPs that interact with the photoreceptor-specific transcription factor NRL and are likely involved in development and homeostasis of this retinal cell-type. We are pursuing the following lines of research:
1) RBPs in retinal development and degeneration. We will study the role of RBPs in regulating retinal development and maintaining homeostasis. We will focus on RBPs enriched in the retina, their interactions with retinal transcription factors like NRL, and their relevance to retinal diseases.
2) RBPs in R-loop regulation in the retina. R-loops are triple-stranded structures created when RNA anneals to one of the strands of the DNA duplex. R-loops have many regulatory roles during gene expression and their dysregulation can be detrimental to genome integrity. We observed that R-loops are dynamic during retinal development and identified key R-loop-associated RBPs that are enriched in rod photoreceptors and that interact with the transcription factor NRL. We will study the role of R-loops and their regulatory RBPs in retinal development and homeostasis.
3) Chromatin-associated regulatory RNAs through the retina lifespan. Chromatin-associated RNAs contribute to the dynamic regulation of gene expression, chromatin structure, and genome organization, playing essential roles in various biological processes, including development, differentiation, and disease. We will study how regulatory RNAs, together with their cognate RBPs, influence expression programs and chromatin dynamics through the retina lifespan. -
Angela Corvino
Postdoctoral Scholar, General Surgery
Current Research and Scholarly InterestsPostdoctoral researcher pioneering the advancement of novel radiotherapy approaches (FLASH, SFRT) to tackle a critical challenge: minimising damage to healthy tissue surrounding difficult to treat tumors. I'm hands-on in all stages of preclinical experimentation, spanning from Monte Carlo simulations for planning and precise dosimetry, to conducting small animal irradiation, follow-ups, and insightful data analysis.

Zaria Cosby, MPH
Social Science Research Professional 2, Stanford-Surgery Policy Improvement Research and Education Center
BioZaria Cosby, BS, MPH, is a Social Science Research Professional at the S-SPIRE Center. She completed her Master of Public Health with a concentration in Biostatistics and Epidemiology, as well as her Bachelor of Science in Health Promotion and Disease Prevention, at the University of Southern California. During her time at USC, Zaria worked on multiple projects across a variety of topics, the most recent being her master’s capstone: a mixed-methods study into the lived experiences of women of color with HIV during the Covid pandemic. At S-SPIRE, she supports qualitative and quantitative data collection, analysis, and interpretation. Zaria also holds a Certified Personal Trainer certification from the National Academy of Sports Medicine. No matter the position or project, Zaria’s overarching goal is to help people become their healthiest selves through research and education.
