Hilary Jericho
Clinical Associate Professor, Pediatrics - Gastroenterology
Current Research and Scholarly InterestsI am a clinical associate professor of pediatric gastroenterology and the Inaugural Medical Director of the Celiac Disease Program at the Lucile Packard Children’s Hospital at Stanford whose clinical practice and research have an emphasis on the diagnosis and management of celiac disease. I was appointed the Director of Pediatric Clinical Research at the University of Chicago Celiac Disease Center in 2014. I am deeply involved in both local community and national professional societies serving as the Director of the Chicagoland Children’s Health Alliance (CCHA) endoscopy committee and am a member of the CCHA celiac committee, the North American Society for Pediatric Gastroenterology, Hepatology and Nutrition (NASPGHAN) celiac special interest group, CeliacKids (a pediatric multi-center celiac research focused collaborative), the Standards-Based Active Guideline Environment (a committee responsible for the establishment of guidelines for accommodating children with celiac disease within school settings across the United States), and the NASPGHAN Endoscopy committee. My clinical work and research focus on pediatric celiac disease (CeD) and have resulted in numerous publications, peer-reviewed articles, and book chapters. This research has also helped to establish myself as an expert in the field of pediatric celiac disease leading to invitations to speak and be a moderator at both local and national meetings, including the internationally attended University of Chicago Celiac Disease Center educational preceptorship programs, the NASPGHAN annual meeting and Beyond Celiac. I have additionally been called up to provide celiac specific journal reviews as well as expert opinions to leading publications, including US News and World Report, Reader’s Digest and Reuter’s. The current application builds logically on my prior work in the field of pediatric celiac disease for which I have successfully administered the projects (staffing, research coordination, budgeting, data analysis and manuscript creation). In summary, I have the expertise, leadership, training, and motivation necessary to successfully carry out the proposed research projects.

Marie E. Jetté, PhD
Clinical Associate Professor, Otolaryngology (Head and Neck Surgery)
BioDr. Marie Jetté is a clinician-scientist and Clinical Associate Professor in the Department of Otolaryngology–Head and Neck Surgery at Stanford University School of Medicine. She is a speech-language pathologist specializing in the behavioral assessment and treatment of voice and upper airway disorders, with particular expertise in refractory chronic cough, and gender-affirming voice care. Dr. Jetté joined the Stanford faculty in September 2026 after serving on the faculty at the University of Colorado Anschutz.
Dr. Jetté graduated from the University of British Columbia in Vancouver, Canada, with a bachelor's degree in linguistics and speech science in 2003. She earned her master's degree in speech-language pathology from the MGH Institute of Health Professions in Boston, Massachusetts in 2006. Following her clinical graduate training, she completed a clinical fellowship specializing in voice disorders at the Massachusetts General Hospital Center for Laryngeal Surgery and Voice Rehabilitation in 2007. She subsequently earned her PhD in communication science and disorders from the University of Wisconsin-Madison in 2015.
Dr. Jetté's clinical practice focuses on the evaluation and behavioral treatment of voice and upper airway disorders. She works collaboratively with laryngologists, pulmonologists, and other healthcare professionals to provide comprehensive, multidisciplinary care for patients with complex laryngeal conditions. Her clinical approach emphasizes individualized, evidence-based behavioral interventions to improve vocal function, reduce symptom burden, and enhance patients' quality of life.
As a clinician-scientist, Dr. Jetté conducts clinical and translational research focused on understanding the physiological, sensory, and behavioral mechanisms underlying voice and upper airway disorders. She is a principal investigator of a National Institutes of Health (NIH)-funded, multisite clinical trial investigating the mechanisms of change associated with behavioral cough suppression treatment for refractory chronic cough. Her research integrates behavioral interventions, objective physiological measures, and functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) to investigate the neural and behavioral mechanisms underlying treatment response. Her overarching research goal is to advance the understanding of laryngeal function and develop more effective, individualized treatments for patients with voice and upper airway disorders.
Dr. Jetté is actively involved in scientific publishing, professional education, and service to the fields of speech-language pathology and laryngology. She has served on numerous committees for the American Speech-Language-Hearing Association (ASHA) and as a board member of the Colorado Speech-Language-Hearing Association. She has served on the editorial boards of the Journal of Speech, Language, and Hearing Research, the Journal of Voice, and PLOS ONE. She has served as a co-chair of the Fall Voice conference three times, including as Overall Program Chair in 2026. Dr. Jetté has also reviewed career development awards for the National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute (NHLBI), served as a site visitor for the Council on Academic Accreditation in Audiology and Speech-Language Pathology (CAA), and organized large-scale educational workshops to train speech-language pathologists in gender-affirming voice care. She is also committed to mentoring the next generation of clinician-scientists and academic leaders, actively mentoring doctoral students, postdoctoral fellows, and early-career faculty through ASHA-sponsored mentoring programs. -
