Sandy Napel
Professor of Radiology (Integrative Biomedical Imaging Informatics), Emeritus
Current Research and Scholarly InterestsMy research seeks to advance the clinical and basic sciences in radiology, while improving our understanding of biology and the manifestations of disease, by pioneering methods in the information sciences that integrate imaging, clinical and molecular data. A current focus is on content-based radiological image retrieval and integration of imaging features with clinical and molecular data for diagnostic, prognostic, and therapy planning decision support.

Andrew Napier
Masters Student in Clinical Informatics Management, admitted Summer 2025
BioAndrew Napier, MD, FAAEM, is a board-certified emergency physician, Army veteran, and founder of two clinical tech companies. He built and FDA-cleared a single-use video laryngoscope with on-blade lens clearing and leads development of real-time procedural guidance for intubation and bronchoscopy. He also co-founded an ambient documentation platform now producing hundreds of thousands of structured charts across 100+ care sites. His work focuses on clinician adoption, safety, and measurable impact at the bedside—pairing device design with on-device AI, rigorous validation, and clear change management.
At Stanford (MCiM), his interests include human-in-the-loop guidance for high-risk procedures, ambient clinical assistants that lower cognitive load, and pragmatic trials that track speed, accuracy, and downstream outcomes. Previously Vice Chair/Assistant Medical Director at a 70k-visit ED, he led sepsis, documentation, and operations projects; he holds issued and pending patents, published on lens-clearing laryngoscopy (AJEM), and has led cross-functional teams through FDA compliance and commercial launch. He served as a combat medic in Afghanistan and later as an EM physician at high-acuity trauma centers.
