Amir Bahmani
Instructor, Genetics
BioAmir Bahmani is a Genetics Instructor and Director of Stanford's Deep Data Research Center (https://deepdata.stanford.edu ) at the Stanford School of Medicine. He has worked on distributed and parallel computing applications since 2008. Amir is currently an active researcher in the VA Million Veteran Program (MVP), Human Tumor Atlas Network (HTAN), Human BioMolecular Atlas Program (HuBMAP), Stanford Metabolic Health Center (MHC), Integrated Personal Omics Profiling (iPOP), and Bridge to Artificial Intelligence (Bridge2AI).
His team has designed and developed several notable cloud-scale frameworks, including the Personal Health Dashboard (PHD), cloud-based cost-saving platforms such as Hummingbird and Swarm, and the MyPHD platform, which now has over 12,000 participants and hosts more than 37 studies. His team also created Stanford Data Ocean (SDO), an innovative platform for educating engineers and biologists. SDO is the first serverless multi-omics and wearables data platform used for education and training.
Since 2017, he has trained more than 30 graduate interns (engineers and designers) from outside the School of Medicine, engaging them in the field of medicine. His course has been offered to physicians, biologists, engineers, and designers, earning him recognition as the recipient of Stanford’s 2024 Walter J. Gores Award for Excellence in Teaching. In 2023, he received the Terman Mentorship Award for mentoring Terman Fellow Ryan Park (top 1%), who transitioned to a Genetics PhD program inspired by Amir’s course. Committed to accessibility in education, Amir created a first-of-its-kind scholarship for under-resourced communities at Stanford, providing his course free of charge—along with Genetics certificates—to over 4,500 students from under-resourced backgrounds across 104 countries and all 50 U.S. states. -
Jehan Bahrainwala, MD, FASN
Clinical Assistant Professor, Medicine - Nephrology
BioDr. Bahrainwala is a board-certified, fellowship-trained nephrologist with the Stanford Medicine Kidney Clinic.

She is double board certified in internal medicine and nephrology. -
Xiangqi Bai
Postdoctoral Scholar, Oncology
BioMy research is focused on computational and systems biology. My primary research interest lies in developing new computational algorithms and statistical methods for the analysis of complex data in biological systems, especially related to the large-scale single-cell RNA sequencing data. The specific topics I have examined include:
1. Integration of single-cell multi-omics datasets for tumor
2. Statistical test of cell developmental trajectories
3. Visualization and reconstruction of single-cell RNA sequencing data
4. Computational analysis of the bifurcating event revealed by dynamical network biomarker methods
