Claire Gustafson
Instructor, Medicine - Immunology & Rheumatology
BioMy current research focuses in determining the underlying causes of T cell dysfunction in older individuals - utilizing high dimensional dataset analysis in combination with the development of new model systems to expand mechanistic studies in humans. In particular, I am interested in (1) the interplay between the tissue microenvironment and T cell homeostasis during the aging process and (2) the role of post-transcriptional regulation in modulating T cell function during infection, vaccination and with age.

Tamiko Katsumoto
Clinical Assistant Professor, Medicine - Immunology & Rheumatology
BioTamiko Katsumoto, MD, is a Clinical Assistant Professor in the Division of Immunology and Rheumatology at Stanford University. She earned her MD from the University of California, San Francisco. She completed her internal medicine residency and rheumatology fellowship at UCSF, including a postdoc in the immunology lab of Dr. Arthur Weiss. Dr. Katsumoto’s research interests include the discovery of novel biomarkers to predict the development of immune-related adverse events in cancer patients on immune checkpoint inhibitor therapies, and optimizing the management of such complications. She is fascinated by the relationship between cancer and autoimmune diseases such as scleroderma and dermatomyositis, the paraneoplastic manifestations of various cancers, and the rheumatic complications of graft vs. host disease. She has spent time at Genentech, where she led several clinical trials in immunology. She also serves as a grant reviewer for the American College of Rheumatology Translational/Clinical Study Section and serves on the Medical and Scientific Board of the Northern California Chapter of the Arthritis Foundation.
