Lukas D. Landegger
Clinical Instructor, Otolaryngology (Head and Neck Surgery)
BioDr. Landegger is a clinician-scientist (otolaryngologist-head and neck surgeon) and Instructor at Stanford University School of Medicine. After gaining clinical as well as research experience in various countries (US, UK, France, Spain, Germany, Singapore, Australia), he specialized in otology with translational hearing research in Vienna, Austria and for five years in Boston (Mass Eye and Ear, Harvard Medical School), leading to a PhD in Neuroscience. Apart from clinical projects, current basic research foci are funded by a grant obtained from the American Society of Gene & Cell Therapy and include inner ear gene therapy, vestibular schwannoma, noise-induced hearing loss, and others.

Quynh-Thu Le, MD, FACR, FASTRO
Katharine Dexter McCormick and Stanley McCormick Memorial Professor and Professor, by courtesy, of Otolaryngology - Head & Neck Surgery (OHNS)
Current Research and Scholarly InterestsMy laboratory focuses on identifying pathways and biomarkers of treatment resistance in head and neck cancer using clinical samples. We explore approaches to modulate these pathways through preclinical models (cell lines, organoids, tumor bearing mice) in order to develop precise strategies against these resistant mechanisms. At the same time, we are also studying pathways involved in treatment-related toxicity and develop strategies to prevent or overcome these toxicities.

Jake J. Lee, MD
Clinical Assistant Professor, Otolaryngology (Head and Neck Surgery)
BioDr. Lee is a fellowship-trained head and neck surgical oncologist with Stanford Medicine Cancer Center’s Head and Neck Cancer Program. He is also a clinical assistant professor in the Department of Otolaryngology—Head & Neck Surgery at Stanford University School of Medicine.
He treats benign and malignant tumors of the head and neck, including oral cancer, tonsil cancer, throat cancer, and thyroid cancer. As a result of his fellowship training, he also specializes in minimally invasive transoral surgery, organ preserving laryngeal surgery, and microvascular free flap reconstruction. Microvascular free flap reconstruction involves moving a piece of tissue, with blood vessels included, to a different part of the body to preserve function after cancer therapy.
Dr. Lee’s research interests include assessment of head and neck cancer treatment outcomes and development of patient-reported outcome measures (PROMs) in order to optimize form and function. He has also studied new therapies for smell and taste loss, including the design and implementation of randomized controlled trials (RCTs).
He has published in several peer-reviewed journals, including JAMA Otolaryngology—Head & Neck Surgery, Head & Neck, Otolaryngology—Head and Neck Surgery, and Laryngoscope. He has presented to his peers at international, national, and regional meetings, including the annual meetings of the American Head and Neck Society (AHNS), American Rhinologic Society (ARS), and the American Academy of Otolaryngology—Head & Neck Surgery (AAO-HNS).
Dr. Lee is a member of the AHNS, AAO-HNS, and Triological Society. He has previously served as the chair of the AAO-HNS Foundation Section for Residents and Fellows-in-Training. -

Yu Chuan (Jenner) Lee
Affiliate, OHNS/Otolaryngology/Head & Neck Surgery
BioJenner Lee is a medical student at National Yang Ming Chiao Tung University, currently serving as a Visiting Student Researcher at Stanford Medicine’s Division of Head and Neck Surgery. His work bridges clinical medicine and engineering, with a focus on swallowing disorders, geriatric care, and bio-signal processing.
Jenner’s interdisciplinary research spans machine learning, acoustic signal analysis, and biomedical device development. At NYCU, he conducts research at the Speech & Bio-signal Processing Lab, where he is developing non-invasive diagnostic tools for dysphagia and speech disorders using in-ear acoustic sensing and neural networks.
A two-time iGEM gold medalist and former student body president, Jenner is committed to integrating AI, healthcare, and public service. He is also a fellow of the Johns Hopkins Cochlear Center for Aging and Public Health and has presented on sound-based diagnostics and human-centered engineering solutions. -
