Mindy Tsai
Sr Res Scientist-Basic Ls, Pathology Sponsored Projects
BioMindy Tsai is Sr. Research Scientist in the Department of Pathology. She received the D.M.Sc. (Doctor of Medical Sciences) in Oral Biology from Harvard School of Dental Medicine and completed her postdoctoral training at Harvard Medical School. Dr. Tsai’s research focuses on studies that are designed to understand the regulation of mast cell and basophil development and to elucidate the roles of these cells in health and disease. Dr. Tsai’s research approaches include in vitro analyses of mast cells and basophils in human and mice, as well as using mouse models of disease to investigate the effector and immunoregulatory functions of these cells in vivo.

Stephen Tsai
Professor (Research) of Aeronautics and Astronautics, Emeritus
BioProfessor Tsai's research interest is in the development of design methodology of composite materials and structures. As an emerging technology, composite materials offer unique performances for structures that combine light weight with durability. Keys to the successful utilization of composite materials are predictability in performance and cost effective design of anisotropic, laminated structures. Current emphasis is placed on the understanding of failure modes, and computer simulation for design and cost estimation.

Timothy Tsai
Clinical Assistant Professor, Medicine - Primary Care and Population Health
BioDr. Tsai is a board-certified family medicine physician, clinical informaticist, and trained in osteopathy. He is a clinical assistant professor in the Stanford University School of Medicine Department of Medicine – Primary Care and Population Health. Prior to joining Stanford Health Care, he obtained a Master of Management in clinical informatics from Duke University.
Dr. Tsai seeks to improve clinician workflows and patient care by applying his knowledge of clinical informatics. His innovations allow providers to quickly access, share, and document information to advance patient care. He has also held many notable leadership, educational, and quality control positions throughout his career.
Dr. Tsai investigates ways to maximize the time clinicians spend with patients. He expedites and standardizes communication between health care providers and patients through the integration of mobile devices and remote patient monitoring programs. He streamlines the documentation process by updating electronic medical record tools and creating more efficient patient questionnaires to optimize the quality of care.
He has presented his research orally or in poster format at the American Medical Informatics Association, Family Medicine Education Consortium, and American Association of Neuromuscular and Electrodiagnostic Medicine. As a medical student, Dr. Tsai developed an open online osteopathic manipulation course, enrolling over 1,200 students. As a clinical fellow at Duke, he co-authored a textbook chapter on the future of health informatics -

Philip S. Tsao, PhD
Professor (Research) of Medicine (Cardiovascular Medicine)
Current Research and Scholarly InterestsOur primary interests are in the molecular underpinnings of vascular disease as well as assessing disease risk. In addition to targeted investigation of specific signaling molecules, we utilize global genomic analysis to identify gene expression networks and regulatory units. We are particularly interested in the role of microRNAs in gene expression pathways associated with disease.

Michael David Tseng, MD
Clinical Assistant Professor, Orthopaedic Surgery
BioMichael D. Tseng, MD is an orthopedic spine surgeon who specializes in spinal injuries and degenerative spine conditions. After over a decade in private practice, he was recruited to join the Stanford University School of Medicine faculty to serve as the Spine Section Chief at Stanford Health Care Tri-Valley.
Dr. Tseng completed his undergraduate training at the University of Michigan, where he earned a degree in Biochemistry with Honors. He then went on to receive his MD at Weill Cornell University in New York, NY. He completed his internship and orthopedic surgery residency at renowned spine center William Beaumont Hospital in Royal Oak, Michigan. He then completed a spinal surgery fellowship at UCSF, where he worked with both orthopedic spine and neurosurgery faculty.
Dr. Tseng has been an investigator in basic science, biomechanical and clinical research projects. He has presented at national and international spine conferences and published work in peer reviewed spine journals. He is a reviewer for the Spine Journal and the BMJ Best Practice-Spinal Stenosis section. He relishes contributing to the education of future surgeons as clinical faculty in the Stanford Orthopedic Surgery Residency and Stanford Orthopedic Spine Surgery Fellowship programs.
As a fellowship-trained spine surgeon, Dr. Tseng treats a comprehensive range of injuries and conditions of the spine, including injuries to the neck and back.
He believes in a conservative approach to treatment and always considers using nonoperative methods before recommending surgery. A holistic approach including education, core strengthening, limited medications, acupuncture or chiropractic care may address many common conditions including back pain.
When surgery is necessary, he uses a caring bedside manner to form a collaborative treatment plan with his patients. He believes that well-informed patients have the best outcomes. His mission is to empower you with tools for functionality and wellness.
He approaches surgery with a “minimalist” approach, doing the least surgery possible to achieve his patient’s objectives. When appropriate, he is skilled using the latest motion sparing surgical techniques such as endoscopic and microsurgical decompression, laminoplasty, and artificial disc replacement. He has completed advanced training in cervical disc replacements and endoscopic spine surgery. He is experienced with minimally-invasive direct lateral spinal fusion and the Barricaid Annular Closure device for disc herniation surgery.
Dr. Tseng is fortunate to work with Christopher Hydock, PA-C, an exceptional and experienced Physician Assistant.
When Dr. Tseng is not seeing patients, he stays active through personal fitness, running, skiing and golf. He also enjoys cooking, music and spending time with family.
