Eitan Yaffe
Affiliate, Medicine - Med/Infectious Diseases
BioDr. Eitan Yaffe is a computational biologist studying the evolution of natural microbial communities under selective pressures, such as antibiotics. He is currently a research associate in the lab of Dr. David Relman at Stanford University, where he develops experimental and computational approaches to investigate strain dynamics, horizontal gene transfer, and the emergence of antimicrobial resistance in the human microbiome.
Dr. Yaffe holds a PhD in Computer Science from the Weizmann Institute of Science, where he focused on epigenetics and chromatin folding. He earned his MSc in Computer Science with a specialization in the 3D structure of protein channels, and his BSc in Mathematics and Computer Science from the Hebrew University of Jerusalem. -
Lisa Yamada
Software Developer 2, SoM - CNC - Cracking the Neural Code
BioLisa Yamada is a PhD candidate in Electrical Engineering, working with Professor Paul Nuyujukian in the Brain Interfacing Laboratory at Stanford University. She is interested in applying data science and engineering tools for medical applications towards higher quality and more equitable care. As a computational neuroscientist and clinical research coordinator, she is currently investigating quantitative measures for seizure analyses using human neuroelectrophysiology data (e.g., intracortical EEGs of participants with refractory epilepsy). She graduated from Trinity College (Hartford, CT) with BS degrees in Electrical Engineering and Mathematics and earned her MS in Electrical Engineering from Stanford University. In her free time, she enjoys outdoor activities like hiking.
