Lindsay Scott Moore, MD
Assistant Professor of Otolaryngology - Head & Neck Surgery
BioDr. Moore is a board-certified, fellowship-trained physician-researcher in otology, neurotology, and lateral skull base surgery with Stanford Health Care Ear Institute. She is a clinical assistant professor in the Division of Otology-Neurotology, Department of Otolaryngology – Head and Neck Surgery at Stanford University School of Medicine.
Dr. Moore specializes in surgery for disorders of the middle ear, inner ear, ear canal, facial nerve, and skull base for adults and children. She provides expert care for hearing loss and deafness, including cochlear implants for hearing loss. Other areas of expertise include vestibular schwannomas and other tumors of the lateral skull base, cerebrospinal fluid leaks (when membranes around the brain and spinal cord have a hole or tear), and cholesteatoma (noncancerous inner ear cysts). She also specializes in tympanic membrane (eardrum) perforations, glomus (rare and usually benign) skull base tumors (paragangliomas), and ear and temporal bone cancers.
Dr. Moore brings her clinical, surgical, and research expertise together to apply laboratory research to real-life patient care. Her research interests include optical and fluorescence molecular imaging (advanced, noninvasive imaging techniques) and applications in intraoperative surgical navigation to guide safe and effective resection of tumors. She also researches molecular characterization, used to show molecular characteristics of tissues and cells, with applications in targeted drug development. She applies her research to conditions including vestibular schwannoma (a noncancerous tumor on nerves connecting the ears and brain), cholesteatoma, skull base neoplasms (cancerous or noncancerous tumors), and hearing loss.
Additionally, Dr. Moore has a special interest in translational human clinical trials, including trial design and regulatory process navigation. Using her clinical trial experience, she works to apply novel investigations and treatment advances in her field. Her clinical research interests include treating and managing vestibular schwannoma, cholesteatoma, and other neoplasms of the ear and lateral skull base.
Dr. Moore has published her work in many peer-reviewed journals, including Nature Communications, Clinical Cancer Research, Annals of Surgery, Journal of Nuclear Medicine, and JAMA Otolaryngology — Head & Neck Surgery. She has given lectures and served on discussion panels at numerous national conferences and meetings. Her presentations have covered her work using novel molecular imaging techniques for surgery of vestibular schwannoma and head and neck cancers, clinical trials exploring therapies for vestibular schwannoma, and clinical trial development and implementation in neurotology.
Dr. Moore is a member of the American Academy of Otolaryngology-Head and Neck Surgery, American Neurotology Society, International Society for Fluorescence Guided Surgery, and the World Molecular Imaging Society. -

Allison Moores
Affiliate, Cardiovascular Institute Operations
BioAllison Moores is a Research Assistant at the Stanford Cardiovascular Institute in the laboratory of Dr. Han Zhu, where her work focuses on T-cell activation and immune-mediated cardiotoxicity in the context of immune checkpoint inhibitor (ICI) therapy. Her research integrates prior experience in computational immuno-oncology with in vitro models of myocarditis to investigate the molecular mechanisms driving CD8⁺ T-cell–mediated inflammation in cardiac tissue. She previously conducted bioinformatics research at UC San Diego on glycosaminoglycan expression in pancreatic cancer progression, contributing to a study currently under review for publication in The Journal of Clinical Investigation. At Scripps Research, she supported ongoing oncovirology projects through PCR, cell culture, and sample preparation, with a focus on viral modulation of host immune responses. Moores is the first author of a published study exploring the hypothesis that HPV E6 may regulate PACSIN2 expression in cervical cancer independently of known transcription factors; for this, she used RNA-Seq data integration, GRNdb mining, and XGBoost modeling. She is also the founder of the Global HPV Vaccination Initiative—organizing and leading educational seminars and vaccination outreach across Mexico, El Salvador, and the United States. Moores is a rising senior at The Bishop’s School in La Jolla, California who values integrative, cross-disciplinary approaches to complex biomedical questions.

Esmeralda Morales
Clinical Associate Professor, Pediatrics - Pulmonary Medicine
BioEsmeralda Morales, MD is a Board-Certified Pediatric Pulmonologist who earned her medical degree from Baylor College of Medicine. She completed her subspecialty training in Pediatric Pulmonology at the University of Arizona/Arizona Respiratory Center known for its excellence in asthma care and research. She practiced in the southwestern United States for 7 years including a year as Interim Chief of the Pediatric Pulmonary Division at the University of New Mexico and was a former University of New Mexico Cystic Fibrosis Center Director, as well as co-chair of the New Mexico Council on Asthma. She has been a member of the Pediatric Pulmonary Division through the Stanford University School of Medicine for the past 7 years and is leading asthma clinical efforts in the division. Her main areas of interest are childhood asthma, aerodigestive disorders in children, respiratory disorders in children with complex healthcare needs and the care of historically marginalized patient populations.
