Viet Nguyen, MD
Clinical Associate Professor, Adult Neurology
BioDr. Viet Nguyen is a neurophysiologist and Clinical Associate Professor of Neurology at Stanford School of Medicine. His practice focuses on Intraoperative Neurophysiologic Monitoring (IONM).
Dr. Nguyen was fellowship-trained at Stanford in Clinical Neurophysiology, with an emphasis in IONM.
The IONM service uses somatosensory and motor evoked potentials (SSEP, MEP), electroencephalography (EEG), electromyography (EMG), and brainstem auditory evoked potentials (BAEP) to help minimize risk in procedures that involve the nervous system. These include surgeries and endovascular procedures for cerebral aneurysms, arteriovenous malformations (AVMs), carotid stenosis, brain and spinal tumors, spinal deformities like scoliosis and spinal stenosis, peripheral nerve injury and tumors, aortic aneurysms, trigeminal neuralgia, facial dystonia, and others.
He has published, presented research, and lectured at national and international meetings on IONM topics, and is active in multiple professional organizations in the field, including the American Clinical Neurophysiology Society, Society of Clinical Neurologists, and American Academy of Neurology. -

Jennifer Ni
Adjunct Clinical Assistant Professor, Pediatrics - Endocrinology
BioI grew up mainly in the Bay Area of California, attending UC Berkeley for undergraduate (Go Bears!) with a major in Bioengineering. After a gap year working at a biotech start up, I traveled to the East Coast for medical school at the University of Pittsburgh, and then back to my birth state of Texas for residency at UT Southwestern. During my experiences in medical school and residency, I discovered that I enjoyed the logic of thinking through signaling pathways to understand the pathophysiology of endocrine disorders. In the future, I hope to combine my background in engineering with my passion for medicine to advance the field of endocrinology, especially in diabetes management. I am very excited to return to the Bay Area for fellowship in Pediatric Endocrinology. Outside of the hospital, I enjoy baking sweet treats, trying new restaurants, and running.

Teresa Nicolson, PhD
Edward C. and Amy H. Sewall Professor
Current Research and Scholarly InterestsOur aim is to understand the molecular basis of hearing and balance. We use zebrafish as our model system, which offers distinct advantages for imaging auditory/vestibular and lateral line hair cells in intact animals. Our experiments focus on the function of deafness genes isolated from forward genetic screens and developmental aspects of sensory hair-cell activity and synaptogenesis.

Seigo Ninomiya
Clinical Research Coordinator Associate, Psychiatry and Behavioral Sciences - Child & Adolescent Psychiatry and Child Development
BioAt Stanford University School of Medicine, Seigo worked in NIH funded Clinical trials for a variety of neuropsychiatric disorder, and hands-on experience dealing data from neuroimaging methods such as fMRI, EEG, and 3D Neuro-navigation system. At UCSF School of Medicine, he has completed the internship program with the Center for Intelligent Imaging. As a part of Biomagnetic Imaging Lab and Speech Neuroscience Lab at UCSF School of Medicine, He has done data processing, Data QC, and analysis of MEG, fMRI data and several neuropsych scales such as GAD7, YBOCS, and Tinnitus Functional Index. He have hands-on experience on advanced neuroimaging technologies including fMRI and EEG in laboratory settings at University of California Davis., and obtained a CITI training certificate in both biological/behavioral training, and MRI training certificate from UC Davis Imaging Research center.

Sankar Narayan Niranjan MD FASN
Clinical Associate Professor, Medicine - Nephrology
BioDr.Niranjan is a nephrologist (specialist in kidney diseases) with specific interests in the care of cancer patients with kidney disease (Onconephrology), high blood pressure (Hypertension) and the prevention of kidney disease.
A graduate of Kilpauk Medical College, India, he completed his medical residencies in the UK and at the University of Connecticut, where he served as Chief Medical Resident and a Nephrology Fellow. Since 2004, he served as an Attending Physician and Nephrologist at the St. Francis Hospital and Medical Center in Hartford, Connecticut, and was a partner at Greater Hartford Nephrology.

In addition to his clinical practice, he has mentored numerous young physicians and nephrology trainees as a community-based faculty member at the UCONN School of Medicine in Farmington, Connecticut.
His passion for the prevention and early detection of kidney disease is evident in his active involvement in the National Kidney Foundation’s Kidney Early Evaluation Program (KEEP) in Connecticut. He has facilitated screenings at inner-city community events and minority places of worship, demonstrating his commitment to reaching diverse populations. Over the last five years, he has conducted kidney disease screening camps across Southern India (most recently in June 2024), screening over 500 patients in rural areas using the KEEP template.
