Tracey McLaughlin
Professor of Medicine (Endocrinology)
Current Research and Scholarly InterestsDr. McLaughlin conducts clinical research related to obesity, insulin resistance, diabetes, and cardiovascular disease (CVD). Current studies include: 1) the impact of macronutrient composition on metabolism, DM2 and CVD; 2) comparison of different weight loss diets on metabolism and CVD risk reduction ; 3) role of adipocytes and adipose tissue immune cells in modulating insulin resistance; 4) use of continuous glucose monitoring and multi-omics to define metabolic phenotype and precision diets

Susan Meyhak Seav
Clinical Assistant Professor, Medicine - Endocrinology, Gerontology, & Metabolism
Clinical Assistant Professor (By courtesy), NeurosurgeryBioDr. Seav is a board-certified endocrinologist and Clinical Assistant Professor in the Division of Endocrinology at Stanford and, by courtesy, the Department of Neurosurgery. She graduated from Harvard University with an honors degree in molecular and cellular biology before completing her medical education and residency at the University of California, San Diego. She then completed her endocrinology fellowship at Stanford University.
She has a special interest in disorders that involve the pituitary and adrenal glands such as acromegaly, Cushing disease, hypopituitarism, and functional adrenal adenomas. Dr. Seav is determined to provide her patients with personalized, evidence-based medicine that will allow them to live their best lives. In addition to caring for patients, Dr. Seav is also passionate about medical education and devoted a chief medical residency year teaching medical students, interns, and residents.
In-person and telehealth appointments with Dr. Seav are available at Stanford Endocrinology Clinic at Hoover Pavilion, Pituitary Center at Stanford Neurosciences Health Center, and the Stanford Brain Tumor Center at Stanford Cancer Center. -
Deborah Sellmeyer
Clinical Professor, Medicine - Endocrinology, Gerontology, & Metabolism
BioDr. Sellmeyer is an internationally recognized expert in Metabolic Bone Disease. She is a renowned clinician who joined the Stanford faculty in 2018 as a Professor of Medicine. She has been recognized for her clinical excellence with induction into the Miller Coulson Academy of Clinical Excellence while she was at Johns Hopkins. In addition to her clinical expertise, Dr. Sellmeyer maintains a research program that centers on the effect of nutrition and environmental factors on skeletal metabolism which she has investigated through both smaller CRC-based trials and large multi-center trials. Studies she has conducted have investigated the role of dietary sodium chloride, source of dietary protein (animal, vegetable, dairy, soy), role of dietary potassium and alkaline potassium salts, targeted thoracic exercises on kyphosis, whether structured exercise can prevent bone loss in premenopausal women treated for breast cancer, and studies validating nutritional assessment questionnaires. Her expertise as a clinical researcher has enabled development of a multi-disciplinary translational research team including basic scientists in the orthopedic department, junior faculty members with K grant funding, and basic scientists in the endocrine division to develop translational projects studying the effects of osteoporosis medications on basic elements of skeletal biology utilizing bone biopsies from treated individuals as well as clinical trials of novel therapies for rare bone disorders. Dr. Sellmeyer also is a esteemed educator, having received multiple teaching awards.
