Quan (Donny) V. Hoang, MD, PhD
Clinical Associate Professor, Ophthalmology
Current Research and Scholarly InterestsDr. Hoang's research focuses on extreme near-sightedness, a significant cause of blindness, especially in Southeast Asia. While mild myopia is merely inconvenient, pathologic myopia involves extreme levels of lifelong, progressive eye elongation and eyewall thinning that can lead to blindness. He employs cutting-edge non-invasive imaging to identify patients at greatest risk of vision loss, and leads lab-based studies to discover novel treatments to stunt near-sightedness.and prevent blindness.

Jon Hochstein
Resident in Cardiothoracic Surgery - Thoracic Surgery
Affiliate, Department FundsBioI'm a Cardiothoracic Surgery resident at Stanford Health Care. I also completed an intern year in Pediatrics resident at Boston Children’s Hospital before transitioning to cardiothoracic surgery. I received my MD from Harvard Medical School in the Health Sciences and Technology program joint with MIT. I trained as a biomedical engineering at the Johns Hopkins University with a focus in instrumentation.
I've interests in medical devices spanning from assistive robotics, surgical devices, to point of care devices. I have extensive experience working in the electronics and coding aspect of device development.
My long term goal is to become a congenital cardiovascular surgeon and improve the field of transplantation (partial and whole), congenital cardiac surgery techniques, and congenital mechanical circulatory support. This vocation comes from my personal experience receiving a heart transplant in 1999. -

Kevin William Hoffman, MD, PhD
Clinical Assistant Professor, Psychiatry and Behavioral Sciences - Child & Adolescent Psychiatry and Child Development
BioKevin is a child, adolescent, and adult psychiatrist who primarily works with the Immune Behavioral Health (IBH) clinic at Stanford University. Kevin completed his Bachelor’s degree at Haverford College. He then moved to New York to complete combined MD and PhD degrees at the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai, where his dissertation research in the department of microbiology was focused on how the immune system responds to viral neuroinvasion. Kevin returned to Pennsylvania for his psychiatry residency at the University of Pennsylvania and child and adolescent psychiatry fellowship at the Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia. As a resident and fellow, Kevin has developed clinical interests in the overlap between medical and psychiatric illness, particularly with regards to neurodevelopmental and psychotic disorders. He also maintained research interests in the same areas, completing several projects with his mentor, Dr. Ran Barzilay, on the influence inflammatory disorders and physiologic distress have on children’s mental health. Kevin has continued to pursue these interests at Stanford, where he works with children with combined immunologic and psychiatric illness, with special focus and research interests in areas of autism and psychosis.

Florian Hoffmann, Ph.D.
Postdoctoral Scholar, Hematology
BioFlorian is a postdoctoral researcher in Dr. Ami Bhatt's laboratory at Stanford University. He earned his Ph.D. in Biochemistry working in Dr. Sam Sternberg's group at Columbia University where he studied atypical CRISPR systems in prokaryotes, in search of molecular tools for programmable gene editing and gene regulation. His studies elucidate the mechanisms of a novel RNA-guided transposition system, the evolutionary ancestors of the gene editing enzymes Cas9 and Cas12, and an unprecedented Cas12f enzyme that creates custom de novo transcription start sites without requiring promoter elements. Florian is fascinated by the vast untapped resources of novel gene functions encoded in bacteria and their viruses (bacteriophages). He is an inventor on multiple patents related to his doctoral work. During his postdoctoral work at Stanford, he aims to discover novel paradigms of bacteria-virus interactions and how these shape the human gut microbiome, and human health. To investigate these systems, he harnesses interdisciplinary approaches, combining computational gene discovery with experimental techniques in Molecular Biology, Genetics and Biochemistry.
