Euan A. Ashley
Roger and Joelle Burnell Professor of Genomics and Precision Health, Professor of Medicine (Cardiovascular Medicine), of Genetics, of Biomedical Data Science and, by courtesy, of Pathology
Current Research and Scholarly InterestsThe Ashley lab is focused on precision medicine. We develop methods for the interpretation of whole genome sequencing data to improve the diagnosis of genetic disease and to personalize the practice of medicine. At the wet bench, we take advantage of cell systems, transgenic models and microsurgical models of disease to prove causality in biological pathways and find targets for therapeutic development.

Daniel Bloch
Professor (Research) of Biomedical Data Science (BDS), Emeritus
BioI received my PhD. in Mathematical Statistics in 1967. I joined the research community at the Stanford University School of Medicine, Division of Immunology & Rheumatology, in 1984 as head statistician directing the biostatistics consulting and analytic support of the Arthritis Rheumatism Aging Medical Information System (ARAMIS) and Multipurpose Arthritis Center (MAC) grant-related research programs. In 1993 I was appointed Associate Professor with a joint appointment in the Departments of Medicine and of Health Research & Policy, and am currently Professor of Biostatistics at Stanford University, emeritus since 2007. My contributions to the statistics literature span numerous fields, including methods of sample size estimation, efficiency and bias of estimators, research methods for kappa statistics, non-parametric classification methods and methods of assessing multi-parameter endpoints. I have over 200 peer-reviewed publications. I have been directly involved with the development of numerous criteria rules for classification of diseases and with establishing guidelines for clinical trial research and in proposing responder criteria for osteoarthritis drugs. Since 1987, I have been a consultant on an ad hoc basis to pharmaceutical and biotechnical firms, including both start-up and established companies. I have extensive experience with devices, drugs and biologics and have participated in all aspects of applying statistics to implement investigational plans; e.g.: for protocol development, design of trials, database design. I’ve been a member of the FDA Statistical Advisors Panel, the statistical member on numerous data safety monitoring boards, and frequently represent companies at meetings with the FDA

Francisco M. De La Vega
Adjunct Professor, Biomedical Data Science
BioFrancisco De La Vega is a distinguished geneticist and computational biologist, and an experienced technical executive, widely recognized for his expertise in clinical and population genomics, and bioinformatics. Currently serving as the Vice President of Hereditary Disease at Tempus Labs, Francisco is spearheading the development of comprehensive germline genetic tests and conducting innovative research into racial disparities in cancer leveraging Tempus’ multimodal Real-World Data. His work focuses on uncovering the connections between genetic ancestry and cancer genome mutational profiles that may help explain the differences in cancer incidence and outcomes across races and ethnicities. In addition to his role at Tempus Labs, Francisco is an Adjunct Professor in the Department of Biomedical Data Science at Stanford University School of Medicine and is a member of the Board of Directors of the International Society of Computational Biology, serving from 2022 to 2025.
Francisco teaches BIODS-235: "Best practices for developing data science software for clinical and healthcare applications" every Winter quarter. -
