Chunyang Dong
Postdoctoral Scholar, Psychiatry
BioChunyang Dong completed his Ph.D. studies from University of California, Davis with Dr. Lin Tian, where he specialized in protein engineering to develop genetically encoded biosensors to enable real-time imaging of neuromodulator dynamics. As part of his postdoctoral pursuits with Dr. Sergiu Pasca at Stanford University, he hopes to combine disciplines between biosensors and modeling human neurological disease using brain region-specific organoids. Despite this shift, his unwavering goal is to deepen the understanding of brain development, disease processes, and translate research to potential treatments for neurological disorders.

Igor D. Bandeira
Postdoctoral Scholar, Psychiatry
BioIgor D. Bandeira, M.D., Ph.D., is a Postdoctoral Research Fellow in the Department of Psychiatry and Behavioral Sciences at Stanford University. With extensive experience in interventional psychiatry, Dr. Bandeira has led multiple clinical trials focused on noninvasive brain stimulation and rapid-acting antidepressants for psychiatric disorders in children, adolescents, and adults. He received the prestigious Professor Alfredo Thomé de Britto Award in recognition of his exceptional research achievements during his physician-scientist training at the Federal University of Bahia in Salvador, Brazil.
As part of his medical training, Dr. Bandeira also studied at the University of Sydney (Australia) on a Science Without Borders Scholarship, where he enhanced his clinical and research skills at the university’s Brain and Mind Centre. Upon returning to Brazil, he gained valuable clinical experience as an attending physician with the Brazilian Ministry of Health and worked on the frontlines during the COVID-19 pandemic.
At Stanford, working with Dr. Nolan R. Williams, Dr. Bandeira led the Wellcome LEAP trial on accelerated intermittent theta-burst stimulation (Stanford Neuromodulation Therapy) to treat anhedonic depression. Alongside Dr. Alan F. Schatzberg, he is co-leading a trial supported by the American Foundation for Suicide Prevention, evaluating the efficacy and safety of buprenorphine in sustaining the antisuicidal effects of ketamine. His work centers on developing personalized therapeutics for treatment-resistant depression, bipolar depression, and suicidal behavior.
Looking ahead, Dr. Bandeira plans to apply for psychiatry residency programs in the United States to advance his career in academic psychiatry and clinical research. -
