Julien Sage
Elaine and John Chambers Professor of Pediatric Cancer and Professor of Genetics
Current Research and Scholarly InterestsWe investigate the mechanisms by which normal cells become tumor cells, and we combine genetics, genomics, and proteomics approaches to investigate the differences between the proliferative response in response to injury and the hyperproliferative phenotype of cancer cells and to identify novel therapeutic targets in cancer cells.

Manish Saggar
Associate Professor (Research) of Psychiatry and Behavioral Sciences (Interdisciplinary Brain Science Research)
Current Research and Scholarly InterestsWe are a computational neuropsychiatry lab dedicated to developing computational methods to better understand brain’s overall dynamical organization in healthy and patient populations. We employ algorithms from a wide range of fields, including Applied Mathematics, Econometrics, Machine Learning, Biophysics, and Network Science.

Jeffrey Sagun
Assistant Clinical Research Coordinator, Dermatology
BioJeffrey Sagun, B.S., is a REACH Postbaccalaureate Scholar at Stanford Medicine's Department of Dermatology. He was born and raised in Chicago. He received his B.S. in Neuroscience from Trinity College–Hartford in 2021 and was a Posse Foundation Scholar. He then spent three years training at the NIH/NCI as a NIH Academy Enrichment Program Scholar and Postbac CRTA Research Fellow, studying neurological disease in xeroderma pigmentosum patients. He is currently interested in studying the clinical characteristics and genetic causes of rare or complex disease patients.

Mustafa Caglar Sahin
Visiting Instructor, Neurosurgery
BioMustafa Caglar Sahin, MD is a neurosurgeon and research scholar at Stanford University with a primary focus on neuro-oncology and stereotactic radiosurgery. He completed his medical education at Erciyes University and his neurosurgical residency at Gazi University. Following his residency training, he has worked as a board-certified neurosurgeon, gaining independent clinical experience in the management of intracranial tumors and complex cranial pathologies.
Dr. Sahin’s clinical practice includes the treatment of meningiomas, vestibular schwannomas, pituitary adenomas, gliomas, and other intracranial tumors. He has experience in microsurgical tumor resection, multimodal treatment planning, and stereotactic radiosurgery applications. His work also involves outcome evaluation and longitudinal patient follow-up in neuro-oncology.
In parallel with his clinical career, Dr. Sahin has developed an active research portfolio integrating clinical neurosurgery with molecular tumor biology and computational approaches. A central focus of his research has been telomere biology and long non-coding RNA regulation in meningiomas, particularly investigating the role of TERRA expression and telomere dynamics as potential biomarkers for tumor monitoring and prognosis. His work in this field has been recognized with the Best Young Meningioma Researcher Award.
He has also contributed to research exploring artificial intelligence applications in neurosurgery, including studies evaluating large language models in neurosurgical education and comparative analyses of AI systems in brain MRI interpretation. Through his academic work, he aims to contribute to the development of data-informed, evidence-based strategies for improving clinical decision-making in patients with intracranial tumors.
Dr. Sahin is a member of the European Association of Neurosurgical Societies, the European Skull Base Society, and the Turkish Neurosurgical Association. His long-term vision is to bridge surgical precision with computational intelligence and translational tumor biology to improve evidence-based decision-making in neuro-oncology. -
