Kazuo Ando
Clinical Assistant Professor, Anesthesiology, Perioperative and Pain Medicine
BioBorn and raised in Japan, Dr. Ando received an MD-PhD degree from the Aichi Medical University. After anesthesia training, Dr. Ando came to Stanford to pursue clinical and basic research experience. During his postdoctoral fellowship in Dr. Gaudilliere's laboratory, Dr. Ando worked on publication of “A next-generation single-cell technology (mass cytometry) to study the feto-maternal immune system,” a project designed to evaluate the immune response associated with preterm birth. In addition, Dr. Ando performs research in Obstetric Anesthesia, such as respiratory monitoring after cesarean sections and labor satisfaction, to obtain clinical research experience and to understand the key differences in medicine between the United States and Japan.
After his postdoctoral fellowship, Dr. Ando has maintained his status as a researcher in Dr. Gaudilliere's laboratory, continuing work relating to pregnancy and preterm birth.
Dr. Ando divides his efforts between laboratory research and the clinic. -

Miles Berger
Professor of Anesthesiology, Perioperative and Pain Medicine (MSD)
BioI am a neuroanesthesiologist and translational human neuroscientist. Clinically, I care for patients undergoing brain and spine surgery, and have an interest in optimizing anesthesia care (and postoperative cognitive outcomes) for older surgical patients.
My research team studies mechanisms of perioperative neurocognitive disorders (such as delirium) in older adults, the relationship between anesthetic brain sensitivity (as measured by EEG) and preclinical/prodromal age-related changes in brain structure and function, and mechanisms by which the APOE4 allele leads to increased Alzheimer's Disease risk and neurocognitive decline. Together with collaborators, we use a transdisciplinary approach combining molecular/cellular assays (including ELISAs, proteomics, metabolomics, and flow cytometry) on pre- and post-operative CSF and plasma samples from older surgical surgical patients, functional and structural MRI neuroimaging, pre- and intra-operative EEG recordings, genetics (and epigenetics), and pre and postoperative delirium screening and cognitive testing. Overall, our hope is that the combination of these different methods will allow us to obtain insights into the mechanisms of perioperative neurocognitive disorders that could not be obtained by any single method alone.
Our group values diversity and mentorship, and we are happy to talk with prospective undergraduate, graduate or post-doctoral students with an interest in our work. -

Lawrence Chu, MD, MS
Professor of Anesthesiology, Perioperative and Pain Medicine (MSD)
Current Research and Scholarly InterestsI have two lines of research, one involving educational informatics and use of technology in postgraduate medical education and another involving NIH-funded work in patient-oriented clinical research regarding opioid use and physiologic responses associated with acute and chronic exposure in humans.
For a full description of my educational informatics work, please see my website aim.stanford.edu.
My clinical research focuses on the study opiate-induced hyperalgesia in patients suffering from chronic pain.
I am currently conducting an NIH-funded five year double-blinded randomized controlled clinical study (NIGMS award 1K23GM071400-01) that prospectively examines the following hypotheses: 1) pain patients on chronic opioid therapy develop dose-dependent tolerance and/or hyperalgesia to these medications over time, 2) opiate-induced tolerance and hyperalgesia develop differently with respect to various types of pain, 3) opioid-induced hyperalgesia occurs independently of withdrawal phenomena, and 4) opiate-induced tolerance and hyperalgesia develop differently based on gender and/or ethnicity.
The study is the first quantitative and prospective examination of tolerance and hyperalgesia in pain patients and may have important implications for the rational use of opioids in the treatment of chronic pain. -

David Clark
Professor of Anesthesiology, Perioperative and Pain Medicine (MSD)
BioMy career is dedicated to improving the safety, effectiveness and availability of pain relief. Both the needs and opportunities in these areas are limitless. I have had the good fortune of working as a clinician, teacher and scientist at Stanford University and the Palo Alto VA hospital for more than two decades.
Much of my time is spent on laboratory, translational and clinical research. In the laboratory, we are pursuing several projects related to the questions of why pain sometimes becomes chronic after injuries and why opioids lose their effectiveness over time. Alterations in endogenous pain control mechanisms and the involvement of the adaptive system of immunity are central to these investigations. We would like to find ways to maximize functional recovery after surgery and other forms of trauma while minimizing the risks of analgesic use. This work involves local, national and international collaborations. Clinical trials work involves establishing the efficacy of novel forms of analgesic therapy as well as the comparative effectiveness of long-established approaches to controlling common forms of pain such as low back pain. This spectrum of pain-related pursuits continues to evolve with the rapid expansion of the field. -
