Andrew Brooks
Postdoctoral Scholar, Genetics
BioPostdoctoral researcher in the Snyder Lab. My research focuses on the human gut microbiome, and I am involved in multiple multiomic projects investigating how physiological systems through the human body interact across different lifestyles and health states. I perform both wet and dry lab aspects of multiomics analyses, and am involved in two coronavirus research projects including handling of positive SARS-COV-2 samples.

Graham Erwin
Postdoctoral Scholar, Genetics
BioGraham Erwin, Ph.D., is a Stanford Cancer Institute Postdoctoral Fellow in the Department of Genetics at Stanford University. He is a molecular, chemical, and genome biologist elucidating the functional role of repetitive DNA sequences. This work is guiding the design of new therapeutics and diagnostics for human disease. Graham is currently supported by an NIH Pathway to Independence Award (K99/R00). He received his Ph.D. from the University of Wisconsin–Madison, where he was a co-inventor of synthetic transcription factors to treat devastating neurodegenerative diseases. An analog of their prototype molecule, Syn-TEF1, is currently in human clinical trials. He has published first-author papers in high-impact journals including PNAS and Science. Graham is an advocate for first-generation college students and for programs that support mental health and psychological thriving on college campuses. He is a guest lecturer in Wellness Education at Stanford.

Nicholas Antonios Kalogriopoulos
Postdoctoral Scholar, Genetics
BioNick's broad research interests are in developing tools and technologies for research and therapeutic applications. Nick obtained a B.S. in Genetics and Molecular Biology from the University of Wisconsin-Madison. During his undergraduate career, he trained with Dr. Paul Sondel, where he worked on preclinical testing of novel immunotherapeutic agents for the treatment of neuroblastoma. He obtained a Ph.D. in Biomedical Science with Dr. Pradipta Ghosh, elucidating the structural basis of non-canonical G protein activation by a novel protein family of Guanine Nucleotide Exchange Modulators (GEMs). As a Postdoctoral Researcher with Professor Alice Ting at Stanford University, his current research focuses on developing a new system for programmable and user-controlled cellular behaviors for immuno-oncology applications.

Saswati Karmakar
Postdoctoral Scholar, Genetics
BioSaswati Karmakar obtained her undergraduate degree in Biotechnology at Guru Gobind Singh Indraprastha University, New Delhi. She pursued her Ph.D. in Biochemistry and Molecular Biology at the University of Nebraska Medical Center, Omaha, working on the molecular characterization of pancreatic cancer stem cells and their contribution to cancer initiation and progression. Then, she moved to Stanford University with the National Cancer Institute's F99/K00 award for a postdoctoral position in Monte Winslow's lab. Saswati's current research uses novel approaches such as molecular barcoding and high throughput sequencing to understand pancreatic cancer pathogenesis. Saswati's long-term research interest is to elucidate mechanisms of metastasis and ultimately find better therapeutic avenues for pancreatic cancer patients.

Wen-yang Lin
Postdoctoral Scholar, Genetics
Current Research and Scholarly InterestsThe broad goal of my research interest is to identify intrinsic and extrinsic mediators of tumor growth and plasticity. My past research experiences will synergize with the expertise of Dr. Monte Winslow’s laboratory to allow the discovery of novel mechanisms of cancer progression. The integration of our molecular measurements with multiple types of ‘omics’ data will ultimately improve the diagnostic precision medicine.

Xiangping Lin
Postdoctoral Scholar, Genetics
BioXiangping Lin, Ph.D., is a Postdoctoral Scholar at Stanford University. He received his Ph.D. in Chemistry from the Sorbonne Paris North University, Paris. Dr. Lin’s research focuses on Analytical Chemistry, especially Mass Spectrometry (Orbitrap, Q-TOF, QqQ) and NMR-based omics studies. These include, but are not limited to, metabolomics, exposomics, and the application in biomedical and environmental research, such as cancer, liver disease, chemicals exposure biomarkers, metabolism and aging. In addition, he has extensive experience in multivariate statistics (PCA, PLS-DA, et cetera.), variable selection (logistic regression, LASSO regression, et cetera.), and R programming. In his free time, he enjoys going to the gym, playing badminton (he organizes the Stanford postdoc badminton club), swimming, fitness, cuisine, traveling, and spending time with family and friends.
