Ying Zhu
Postdoctoral Scholar, Gastroenterology, Hepatology, and Nutrition
BioDr. Ying Zhu is a postdoctoral scholar in the Rosen Lab at Stanford University in the Department of Pediatrics, Division of Gastroenterology, Hepatology & Nutrition. She received her PhD in 2023 from the Friedman School of Nutrition Science and Policy at Tufts University. Her research studied the role of intestinal Acyl-CoA long-chain synthetase 5 in diet-induced obesity using inducible transgenic mouse model. Within the Rosen Lab, Dr. Zhu is focusing on intestine epithelial metabolic dysfunction in pediatric IBDs and chronic intestinal inflammation.

Lindsey Zimmerman
Affiliate, Psych/Public Mental Health & Population Sciences
BioLindsey Zimmerman, PhD, is a Clinical and Community Psychologist, and Implementation Scientist at the National Center for PTSD, Dissemination and Training Division of the Veterans Health Administration.
Dr. Zimmerman is principal investigator of National Institutes of Health (NIH) and Veterans Health Administration (VA) research that enlists participatory system dynamics to increase timely patient access to evidence-based pharmacotherapy and evidence-based psychotherapy for depression, PTSD, alcohol and opioid use disorder.

Participatory System Dynamics vs Audit and Feedback: A Cluster Randomized Trial of Mechanisms Of Implementation Change to Expand Reach of Evidence-Based Addiction and Mental Health Care (R01DA046651)
The most common reasons Veterans seek VA addiction and mental health care is for help with opioid and alcohol misuse, depression and PTSD. Research evidence has established highly effective treatments that prevent relapse, overdose and suicide, but even with policy mandates, performance metrics, and electronic health records to fix the problem, these treatments may only reach 3-28% of patients. This study tests participatory business engineering methods to better meet the addiction and mental health needs of Veterans and the U.S. population.
Participatory System Dynamics for Evidence-Based Addiction and Mental Healthcare (R21DA042198)
Limited access and delays to high-quality, evidence-based mental health and addiction treatments can lead to patients getting too little or ineffective care and contribute to chronic patient impairment, relapse, and death by suicide or overdose. This study evaluates a system for resolving problems with patient flow and organization in health care systems, using electronic medical record systems and a high-level of input from healthcare leadership, frontline providers and patients.

Participatory System Dynamics vs Usual Quality Improvement: Is Staff Use of Simulation an Effective, Scalable and Affordable Way to Improve Timely Veteran Access to High-quality Mental Health Care? (I01HX002521)
Participatory system dynamics (PSD) helps improve quality with existing resources, critical in mental health and all VA health care. PSD uses learning simulations to improve staff decisions, showing how goals for quality can best be achieved given local resources and constraints. We aim to significantly increase the proportion of patients who start and complete evidence-based care, and determine the costs of using PSD for improvement.

Judith Zimmermann
Postdoctoral Scholar, Radiological Sciences Laboratory
BioI am a postdoctoral scholar focusing on advancing breast magnetic resonance imaging, advised by Dr. Brian Hargreaves at the Radiological Sciences Laboratory (RSL), Body Magnetic Resonance (BMR) Group. I received my PhD from the Department of Computer Science, Technical University of Munich in 2021, jointly with the CMR Lab at Stanford, advised by Dr. Daniel Ennis. My PhD work focused on four-dimensional flow magnetic resonance imaging. After completion of my PhD studies, and prior to joining Dr. Hargreaves' lab, I was with the Breast Imaging Research Group (Dr. Nola Hylton) at UCSF.
