Joy Wu
Professor of Medicine (Endocrinology)
Current Research and Scholarly InterestsMy laboratory focuses on the pathways that regulate the differentiation of mesenchymal stem cells into the osteoblast and adipocyte lineages. We are also studying the role of osteoblasts in the hematopoietic and cancer niches in the bone marrow microenvironment.

Sean M. Wu
Professor of Medicine (Cardiovascular Medicine) and, by courtesy, of Pediatrics
Current Research and Scholarly InterestsMy lab seeks to identify mechanisms regulating cardiac lineage commitment during embryonic development and the biology of cardiac progenitor cells in development and disease. We believe that by understanding the transcriptional and epigenetic basis of cardiomyocyte growth and differentiation, we can identify the most effective ways to repair diseased adult hearts. We employ mouse and human embryonic and induced pluripotent stem cells as well as rodents as our in vivo models for investigation.

Yue Wu
Postdoctoral Scholar, Genetics
Current Research and Scholarly InterestsI built computational methods to integrate and model biological time series, including metabolic dynamics, longitudinal multi-omics data, and micro-sampling. I reduce dimensions, built clusters, and search for causal links.

Yufan (Fred) Wu
Affiliate, Department Funds
BioFred (Yufan) Wu is a PGY-5 chief resident physician at the Stanford University Department of Radiation Oncology. He attended medical school at Stanford School of Medicine and completed his intern year in Internal Medicine at Baylor College of Medicine / MD Anderson Cancer Center. During medical school, he completed concentrations in clinical research methodology and cancer biology, establishing the foundational skills for conducting sound clinical oncologic research.
He is passionate about leveraging new technologies to improve the patient experience and patient outcomes. His primary research interests include the development of virtual reality tools for patient education, and clinical translation of FLASH radiotherapy systems. He also leads clinical research projects on the topics of prostate HDR brachytherapy, lung SBRT, and pancreas SBRT, which have led to numerous peer-reviewed manuscript publications, research awards, and invited presentations with honoraria. He is also a resident peer reviewer for the International Journal of Radiation Oncology*Biology*Physics.
In addition, Fred serves on the leadership committee of the GME Diversity Committee, where he plans and executes large-scale initiatives to promote diversity, equity, and inclusion among the graduate medical community, an undertaking that he resonates deeply with. He was also the co-president of the Radiation Oncology Interest Group at Stanford. In his spare time, he enjoys traveling, playing/watching basketball, tennis, swimming, and going on hikes to capture landscape photography that is shared on an online photo album. -
Courtney Wusthoff, MD
Professor of Neurology (Pediatric Neurology) and, by courtesy, of Pediatrics (Neonatology)
Current Research and Scholarly InterestsMy projects focus on clinical research in newborns with, or at risk, for brain injury. I use EEG in at-risk neonates to better understand the underlying pathophysiology of risk factors that may lead to worse outcomes. I am particularly interested in neonatal seizures and how they may exacerbate perinatal brain injury with a goal to identify treatments that might protect the vulnerable brain. I am also interested in EEG in other pediatric populations, as well as medical ethics and global health.

Joanna Wysocka
Lorry Lokey Professor and Professor of Developmental Biology
Current Research and Scholarly InterestsThe precise and robust regulation of gene expression is a cornerstone for complex biological life. Research in our laboratory is focused on understanding how regulatory information encoded by the genome is integrated with the transcriptional machinery and chromatin context to allow for emergence of form and function during human embryogenesis and evolution, and how perturbations in this process lead to disease.

Feng Xie
Postdoctoral Scholar, Anesthesiology, Perioperative and Pain Medicine
BioFeng Xie is currently a postdoctoral scholar at Stanford University School of Medicine, and he recently graduated with a joint Ph.D. degree from Duke University and the National University of Singapore. He previously obtained his bachelor’s degree from Tsinghua University, Beijing, China, in 2017. His research focuses on developing novel informatics methodologies and applying them to various healthcare domains, including children’s health, critical care, and emergency medicine. He extensively utilized large-scale multimodal data including electronic health records (EHR), clinical notes, and medical signal data, to address critical healthcare challenges. In his Ph.D. and postdoctoral training, he developed multiple advanced methods and informatics tools, including AutoScore, MIMIC-IV-ED benchmark, and NeonatalBERT. Used by other researchers globally, some of them have been applied to a wide range of clinical applications including risk prediction and model benchmarking, resulting in dozens of publications by other users. Specifically, AutoScore software has been downloaded more than 10,000 times from the R CRAN platform. and the original paper has garnered over 70 official citations for about 2 years.
Over 5 years, he published 8 first-author research papers in high-impact journals in the field, with a total impact factor of over 60. His extensive collaborations with clinicians, engineers, and health service researchers also resulted in 12 co-author papers. -
James Xie
Clinical Associate Professor, Anesthesiology, Perioperative and Pain Medicine
BioDr. James Xie is a board certified pediatrician and pediatric anesthesiologist at Stanford University School of Medicine. His goal is to improve patient care and promote health equity with health information technologies. Currently he is a clinical informatics physician (CI-MD) and Epic physician builder at Stanford Children's Health.
Dr. Xie studied computer science and medicine at Stanford University, followed by a combined residency in general pediatrics at Boston Children's Hospital and Boston Medical Center and anesthesiology at Brigham and Women's Hospital. After residency, he completed a fellowship in pediatric anesthesiology at Stanford Children's Health where he subsequently joined the faculty.
