Matthew Fitzgerald, PhD
Associate Professor of Otolaryngology - Head & Neck Surgery (OHNS)
Current Research and Scholarly InterestsMy research encompasses several translational projects. One focus is to modify the routine audiologic test battery such that it places equal weight on hearing acuity and hearing function. This work includes measures of speech in noise, or electrophysiologic responses such as the FFR. I also explore tools to better assess and maximize performance in users of hearing aids and cochlear implants. Finally, I am also investigating the benefits of telemedicine, and new treatments for tinnitus.

Annesa Flentje
Professor (Research) of Medicine (Stanford Prevention Research Center)
BioAnnesa Flentje, PhD, is a Professor at Stanford University in the Stanford Prevention Research Center, Department of Medicine, School of Medicine. Dr. Flentje is a clinical psychologist who uses multiple methods to understand the impacts of stress and coping on human health and disease. Her research has investigated how stress directly impacts health outcomes and how these processes are mediated through both behaviors (e.g., substance use and coping) and molecular mechanisms (e.g., epigenetics and transcriptional regulation). Dr. Flentje has developed cognitive behavioral interventions to reduce stress, and identified these as a mechanism to alter immune pathways in gene expression. Dr. Flentje is currently leading a large comparative effectiveness study of two interventions for posttraumatic stress symptoms among LGBTQIA+ populations in California. Dr. Flentje has developed and led nationwide mentoring initiatives to support health research of understudied populations and translational research to improve health. Dr. Flentje is Co-Director of The PRIDE Study (pridestudy.org), a national longitudinal cohort study of LGBTQIA+ individuals within the United States that has enrolled over 30,000 participants and is approaching 10 years of data collection.

Pamela Flood
Adjunct Clinical Professor, Anesthesiology, Perioperative and Pain Medicine
BioDr. Flood is a Professor at Stanford University who is fellowship trained in Pain Medicine and Obstetric Anesthesiology. She specializes in the treatment of chronic pelvic pain and multiple aspects of women's health including the prevention of chronic pain after childbirth. Research interests include the role of multimodal treatment in chronic pain conditions and prevention of persistent opioid use. Her research has spanned from detailed pharmacodynamic analysis, clinical trials to population health.

Lara Foland-Ross
Clinical Assistant Professor, Psychiatry and Behavioral Sciences
BioI am a neuroscientist and Clinical Assistant Professor in the Department of Psychiatry and Behavioral Sciences at Stanford University, where I serve as Associate Director of Precision Mental Health Research Programs in the Stanford Center for Precision Mental Health (CPMH). My research uses neuroimaging, cognitive, and behavioral approaches to understand individual differences in the brain systems underlying mood and cognition, with the goal of translating these differences into more precise approaches to mental health care.
A central focus of my work is understanding how individual brain and behavioral patterns can inform prognosis and treatment selection for depression. Currently, I serve as Scientific Director and Co-Investigator of ACE-D (“Accelerating Cognition-guided signatures to Enhance translation in Depression”), a large NIH-funded study testing cognition-guided precision approaches to depression treatment.
I also serve as Scientific Program Lead and a Commissioner for the Nature Mental Health Precision Mental Health Commission, an international initiative working to define the field of precision mental health and accelerate the translation of its strongest science into meaningful clinical use.
Across these roles, I am particularly interested in bridging scientific discovery and clinical application—identifying where current approaches fall short, asking questions that can change how we understand mental health, and helping build practical paths from research findings to better decisions and outcomes for patients. -
